She wanted each card to be beautiful and easy for foreign visitors to understand. On her desk 31______ twelve sketches, from Rat to Pig.

Zhao Min wrote carefully, 'Change can also bring new chances.' Not until she finished the line 34______ she feel satisfied. Here 35______ a new idea: every card should tell a small story, not only list a word. At the fair, a boy from another country bought the whole set.

Not only does the story explain the zodiac order, but it also 45______ (show) the wisdom of Rat and the hard work of Ox. Today, many students retell it in English to promote Chinese culture.

It is designed for readers who want to introduce Chinese culture in simple English. Understand the purpose before joining early. Entrance card Children receive a card showing the 12-year cycle, animal signs and model sentences. Rat means wisdom, Ox patience, Horse purposefulness, and Rooster firmness. Connect meanings with useful expressions. First part A librarian explains how to say birth years correctly, such as I was born in the year of Dragon. Avoid unclear expressions. Second part Each family chooses one sign, reads a short legend and prepares a one-minute introduction. Use facts, examples and polite language. Registration Seats are limited, so families must register online before 6 p.m. on Friday and arrive ten minutes early. Follow the time rule carefully. 46. What is the activity designed for? A. Practising hotel check-in. B. Introducing Chinese culture in simple English. C. Repairing library computers. D. Selling festival food. 47. What should people say to express a birth year correctly? A.

Bring twelve animals. D. Register online. B A primary school in Foshan holds a zodiac story day every January. Older students tell short English stories to younger children, and each story must include one cultural meaning. This year, the story room is decorated with lanterns and twelve animal pictures. At the front of the room stands a clay dragon, which reminds students of strength. Ming, a vocational school volunteer, tells the story of Rat and Ox. Instead of simply saying that Rat was clever, he asks children to compare wisdom with hard work. Some children think Rat was smart because it found a way to cross the river; others admire Ox because it kept helping without complaint. Ming writes both ideas on the board and explains that a traditional story can have more than one lesson. After the story, the children draw their favourite animals and write one English sentence under the picture. The activity helps them learn language, art and culture at the same time. Ming says telling Chinese stories well means making old stories clear, honest and alive, not changing them only to please listeners. 49. When does the school hold the zodiac story day? A. Every July. B. Every Monday. C. Every January. D. Every night. 50. What stands at the front of the room? A. A clay dragon. B. A paper ticket. C. A medicine box. D. A bus model. 51. What does Ming ask children to compare? A. Weather with traffic. B. Food with clothes. C. Tickets with maps. D. Wisdom with hard work. 52. What does the activity help children learn? A. Only sports. B. Language, art and culture. C. Only shopping. D. Only cooking. C In a small bookstore in Nanjing, a shelf of bilingual books introduces Chinese zodiac signs. The owner, Mr. Qiu, adds audio codes to the books because many tourists want to hear correct pronunciation before they read aloud. When visitors scan a code, they can hear a one-minute English story about an animal sign, followed by two useful expressions. The shelf looks simple, but Mr. Qiu checks every recording carefully so that the information is not only interesting but also accurate. A mother once came with her son. The boy was born in the year of Monkey but knew little about its meaning. After listening, he learned that Monkey can symbolise workability and quick thinking. He said he wanted to be better at solving problems, but he also worried that he was not clever enough. Mr. Qiu encouraged him to begin with one small task every day, explaining that symbolic meanings should inspire people rather than limit them. The shelf has become popular with tourists, teachers and young parents. Some buy books as gifts, some practise reading aloud in the corner, and others use the recordings in small culture classes. Mr. Qiu believes technology can help traditional culture reach more people if the content is simple, true and respectful. The careful method also helps shop workers explain products with confidence politely. 53. What do the bilingual books introduce? A. Chinese zodiac signs. B. Train safety. C. Hotel service. D. Shared bikes. 54. How can visitors hear an English story? A. By calling a doctor. B. By buying a ticket. C. By scanning an audio code. D. By painting a wall. 55. What can Monkey symbolise? A. Only peace. B. Workability and quick thinking. C. Only trustiness. D. Only fear. 56. What does Mr. Qiu think technology can do? A. Replace all books. B. Stop tourists reading. C. Hide true content. D. Help traditional culture reach more people. D When we introduce Chinese zodiac signs to foreign friends, accuracy is important. Some students only say, 'I am a Dragon,' but this may confuse listeners, especially those who do not know that the phrase refers to a birth year, not a real animal. It is clearer to say, 'I was born in the year of Dragon.' Then we can explain that the Chinese animal signs form a 12-year cycle and that the order starts with Rat and ends with Pig. A simple timeline or a small picture can make the explanation easier to follow. Good introductions also need balance. We may talk about symbolic meanings, such as wisdom, hard work, bravery, peace and trustiness. However, we should also say that these meanings are cultural ideas, not rules that decide a person's future. If a speaker says every Tiger must be brave or every Rabbit must be careful, listeners may misunderstand the tradition. A person is shaped by family, education, experience and choices, not only by an animal sign. Finally, examples make culture easier to understand. A short legend about Rat and Ox, a paper-cutting picture from a festival, or a story about choosing a zodiac gift for a baby can make the zodiac come alive. Only when stories are accurate, balanced and respectful can culture travel from one heart to another. This is the real purpose of cultural communication today. 57. Which sentence is clearer according to the passage? A. I am a Dragon. B. I was born in the year of Dragon. C. I buy a dragon. D. Dragon is a bus. 58. What should we say about symbolic meanings? A. They are cultural ideas, not strict rules. B. They decide everything. C. They are all wrong. D. They are only for children. 59. What can make culture easier to understand? A. Noise. B. Private letters. C. Examples. D. Wrong dates. 60. When can culture travel from one heart to another? A. When stories are hidden. B. When facts are wrong. C. When nobody listens. D. When stories are accurate, balanced and respectful. 第二节 补全对话（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） A: I need to make a speech about my animal sign. (61)______ B: You can begin with your birth year. A: Good idea. I was born in the year of Rabbit. B: (62)______ A: It means carefulness. But I don't want to judge people only by signs. B: You are right. Animal signs are cultural symbols, not strict rules. A: Should I add a legend? B: (63)______ A short story will make your speech interesting. A: I also want to use inversion. Is this sentence right: 'On the paper are four comic pictures'？ B: (64)______ A: Thanks. I will try to tell Chinese stories well. B: (65)______ A． What does Rabbit mean?

The owner, Mr. Qiu, adds audio codes to the books because many tourists want to hear correct pronunciation before they read aloud. When visitors scan a code, they can hear a one-minute English story about an animal sign, followed by two useful expressions. The shelf looks simple, but Mr. Qiu checks every recording carefully so that the information is not only interesting but also accurate. A mother once came with her son. The boy was born in the year of Monkey but knew little about its meaning. After listening, he learned that Monkey can symbolise workability and quick thinking. He said he wanted to be better at solving problems, but he also worried that he was not clever enough. Mr. Qiu encouraged him to begin with one small task every day, explaining that symbolic meanings should inspire people rather than limit them. The shelf has become popular with tourists, teachers and young parents. Some buy books as gifts, some practise reading aloud in the corner, and others use the recordings in small culture classes. Mr. Qiu believes technology can help traditional culture reach more people if the content is simple, true and respectful. The careful method also helps shop workers explain products with confidence politely. 53. What do the bilingual books introduce? A. Chinese zodiac signs. B. Train safety. C. Hotel service. D.

Some students only say, 'I am a Dragon,' but this may confuse listeners, especially those who do not know that the phrase refers to a birth year, not a real animal. It is clearer to say, 'I was born in the year of Dragon.' Then we can explain that the Chinese animal signs form a 12-year cycle and that the order starts with Rat and ends with Pig. A simple timeline or a small picture can make the explanation easier to follow. Good introductions also need balance. We may talk about symbolic meanings, such as wisdom, hard work, bravery, peace and trustiness. However, we should also say that these meanings are cultural ideas, not rules that decide a person's future. If a speaker says every Tiger must be brave or every Rabbit must be careful, listeners may misunderstand the tradition. A person is shaped by family, education, experience and choices, not only by an animal sign. Finally, examples make culture easier to understand. A short legend about Rat and Ox, a paper-cutting picture from a festival, or a story about choosing a zodiac gift for a baby can make the zodiac come alive. Only when stories are accurate, balanced and respectful can culture travel from one heart to another. This is the real purpose of cultural communication today. 57. Which sentence is clearer according to the passage? A. I am a Dragon. B. I was born in the year of Dragon. C. I buy a dragon. D. Dragon is a bus. 58. What should we say about symbolic meanings? A. They are cultural ideas, not strict rules. B. They decide everything. C. They are all wrong. D. They are only for children. 59. What can make culture easier to understand? A. Noise. B. Private letters. C. Examples. D. Wrong dates. 60. When can culture travel from one heart to another? A. When stories are hidden. B. When facts are wrong. C. When nobody listens. D. When stories are accurate, balanced and respectful. 【答案】57. B 58. A 59. C 60.

They form a 12-year cycle, starting with Rat and ending with Pig. Each animal has symbolic meanings. For example, Rat is a symbol of wisdom, while Ox stands for hard work. There is also an interesting legend about them. Rat could not cross the river by itself, so it jumped into Ox's ear and finally won first place. The story is funny, but it also shows wisdom and hard work. When we introduce zodiac signs in English, we should be accurate and respectful. Clear examples can help foreign friends understand Chinese culture better. 【词汇积累】 zodiac 生肖；folk culture 民俗文化；cycle 循环；symbolic 象征的；legend 传说；accurate 准确的；respectful 尊重的；example 例子；promote 弘扬；tradition 传统；foreign 外国的；meaning 含义；celebration 庆典；value 价值观 【句式拓展】 Chinese zodiac signs belong to our valuable folk culture. 该句使用简单句，belong to 表示 “属于”，用于开篇点明事物归属。 As we all know, the twelve animals repeat every twelve years. 该句使用 as 引导非限制性定语从句，放在句首引出常识，丰富句式。 When introducing traditional culture, we need to keep accurate and use real examples. 该句使用状语从句的省略结构，简洁表达观点，适合用于提出建议。 【点睛】 范文按照 “生肖基础常识 — 象征含义与生肖传说 — 对外介绍的注意事项” 行文，结构完整。把生肖轮回、传说故事和对外传播要求相结合，贴合活动主题，语言难度适配中职学生，便于仿写与背诵。 原创精品资源学科网独家享有版权，侵权必究！ 原创精品资源学科网独家享有版权，侵权必究！ 原创精品资源学科网独家享有版权，侵权必究！ 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
