At the Yuanmingyuan Ruins Park, I tried a special tour using VR technology (技术). It was the world’s first VR tour of Yuanmingyuan. Thanks to today’s technology, the tour looks quite real, with everything the size of real ones. It shows what Yuanmingyuan is like through eight units. With light “glasses” on, I stepped into history excitedly, with the stones around me turning into a great palace—the “Garden of Gardens”! I could “walk” through famous Yuanmingyuan scenery like Jiuzhou Qingyan and Guanshuifa. I joined in the immersive (沉浸式地) activity of “Qianlong’s Garden Tour”. Along the way, I saw the cute “Guardian Dragon” and completed fun activities such as collecting “Time Fragments”. This was unlike what other VR experiences could give. I really felt like walking in Yuanmingyuan seeing the beautiful lakes and trees. From some workers there, I knew this project was from Daxiang Merged Media. And it is the opening work of “Chinese Cultural Heritage VR Large Space”. The creative team worked hard on the forty scenes of Yuanmingyuan. After the trip, I knew better about Chinese buildings and culture. To me, it’s not only an interesting VR game but also a meaningful trip. I expected to explore more about these gardens’ history and designs. 1.What does the underlined word “It” in Paragraph 1 refer to? A. The park. B. Today’s technology. C. The tour. D. The unit. 2.Why did the writer feel like visiting a real place? A. Because there were special activities. B. Because everything was the right size. C. Because the stones turned into real palaces. D. Because there were lakes and trees along the way. 3.How did the writer feel about the “Qianlong’s Garden Tour”? A. Boring. B. Disappointed. C. Fun. D. Peaceful. 4.Who made the VR tour? A. Daxiang Merged Media. B. The Yuanmingyuan Ruins Park. C. Chinese Cultural Heritage VR Large-Space. D. The creative team of “Qianlong’s Garden Tour”. 5.What may the writer probably do next? A. Find more VR games to play. B. Visit the real Yuanmingyuan ruins. C. Learn about how VR technology works. D. Get more information about ancient gardens. 主题语境03 人与社会-著名人物 Passage 1 （25-26八上·福建泉州五中·期中）Helen Keller lived in the USA. She was a great woman. When Helen was a baby, she got very sick.

Passage 2 （25-26八上·福建厦门一中·期中）①Jacques Cousteau was a man who loved the ocean deeply and often explored it on his holidays. ②When he was a child in France, Cousteau was weak and often sick. Doctors suggested he swim to become stronger. That started his great love for water. From then on, he would go to see the ocean for a vacation if he was free. One day, a friend gave him a pair of goggles (护目镜). These goggles were a game changer, which allowed him to see the breathtaking sight of the underwater world clearly for the very first time. ③At that time, the diving clothes were big and heavy. They made it hard for divers to move freely, and an air hose (软管) tied them to the boat. So Cousteau and his friend Emile Gagnan invented (发明) the Aqua Lung. It was the first tool that allowed divers to breathe underwater for a long time. With this, Cousteau was able to explore the ocean more freely. ④He bought a boat on vacation and changed it into a place for research and making films. He sailed around the world. He explored the cold waters of Antarctica and saw many interesting animals like penguins and whales. In Australia, he saw beautiful coral reefs (珊瑚礁) and even met the strange sea dragon-like a leaf. ⑤Cousteau made a lot of books and films based on (基于) his travel and exploration experiences. His TV show lets people see the amazing sea animals at home. Also, he started the Cousteau Society to teach people about the ocean and how to protect it from pollution. Thanks to him, more and more people began to care about the ocean. ⑥From a weak boy to a great explorer of the sea. Jacques Cousteau’s life was truly special. His work not only opened our eyes to the beauty of the ocean but also taught us why we must keep it clean and safe.

To my joy, my parents allowed me to build a test kitchen. I did much cooking to test my dishes in it and my skill improved quickly. Later, my mom and I set up a dinner club that organized monthly events inside my home. Now as a teen chef (主厨), I have also cooked in top-class restaurants around the country. I am not doing it for the money, but because I love cooking. Now I know that when you stop caring whether you’ll be famous or do well, your dream will come to you. 1.The writer is now ________.

Kai played a guqin solo, and for most of the show, he played along with the rhythm (节奏) of the drums. The band played faster and faster. Kai’s classmates jumped to their feet, clapping and shouting. When the music ended, there was an awkward silence (尴尬的沉默). They all looked at the teachers. Mr Li asked, “What were you trying to express?” Kai answered in a low voice, “I wanted to do something different… to modernize (使现代化) the guqin’s sound.” “Well, it’s a good try. But you know it has over 3,000 years of history. I don’t think you showed the characteristics (特点) well,” said Mr Li. “The music was… We nearly couldn’t hear the guqin,” added Miss Zhou. “I’m afraid I can’t give you high marks.” “Please, can I have another chance?” begged Kai. They finally agreed. Alone in the hall later, Kai sat in his chair, feeling a little sad. “I understand what you were trying to do,” Kai looked up and saw Miss Zhou by his side. “But before you can break the rules, you have to fully understand and be good at them.” Kai was bewildered. What did she mean? “The guqin is connected (联系) to nature. The bottom board stands for the ground, and the rounded top board stands for the sky. A wonderful guqin performance shows the harmony (和谐) between people and nature.” “Miss Zhou, is it fine to play the guqin with other instruments?” “Because it is so quiet,” answered Miss Zhou, “people usually play it alone. Sometimes, people play it with the dizi or another guqin. Every note matters. And you know, there’s Chinese philosophy (哲理) behind every form of art. That’s what makes Chinese art special. We should try hard to keep the value of traditions and connect them with modern life.” “Is it true that Confucius played the guqin?” “That’s correct. Confucius believed that music was an important part of a well-rounded (全面) education. It could help a person develop his inner self.” “Can I make it modern?” Kai was thinking if he had asked a stupid (愚蠢的) question. “Ancient musicians followed traditions to show respect. To modernize it, try to find the right way to keep the value. How will you change your piece?” “I’m not sure yet,” said Kai. “But I’m going to do something different again.” That night, Kai kept thinking about the next show. “How can I show the guqin and balance the traditional spirit with a modern character?” he asked himself. Then, he had an idea… 1.In Kai’s teachers’ eyes, he didn’t _________. A. play the drums well B. work well with others C. express personal feelings D. show the guqin’s value 2.Which of the following picture showed the underlined word “bewildered”? A. B. C. D. 3.What lesson has Kai learned from his experience? A. We need to modernize traditional instruments. B. Strict rules will stop us from being creative in music. C. The guqin is an important part of a well-rounded education. D. If we want to create something, we need to understand the tradition first. 4.What might we hear in Kai’s next show? A. Pop music in a traditional style. B. Folk music with Fuzhou color. C. Country music in a Western style. D. Rock music with drums and dizi. 5.Which word can best describe Kai? A. Quiet and smart B.

That’s why she has problems running freely or even walking quickly. On a beautiful spring day, at 4:00 pm, she came home and told me that she joined in “field day”.

At the Yuanmingyuan Ruins Park, I tried a special tour using VR technology (技术). It was the world’s first VR tour of Yuanmingyuan. Thanks to today’s technology, the tour looks quite real, with everything the size of real ones. It shows what Yuanmingyuan is like through eight units. With light “glasses” on, I stepped into history excitedly, with the stones around me turning into a great palace—the “Garden of Gardens”! I could “walk” through famous Yuanmingyuan scenery like Jiuzhou Qingyan and Guanshuifa. I joined in the immersive (沉浸式地) activity of “Qianlong’s Garden Tour”. Along the way, I saw the cute “Guardian Dragon” and completed fun activities such as collecting “Time Fragments”. This was unlike what other VR experiences could give. I really felt like walking in Yuanmingyuan seeing the beautiful lakes and trees. From some workers there, I knew this project was from Daxiang Merged Media. And it is the opening work of “Chinese Cultural Heritage VR Large Space”. The creative team worked hard on the forty scenes of Yuanmingyuan. After the trip, I knew better about Chinese buildings and culture. To me, it’s not only an interesting VR game but also a meaningful trip. I expected to explore more about these gardens’ history and designs. 1.What does the underlined word “It” in Paragraph 1 refer to? A. The park. B. Today’s technology. C. The tour. D.

Doctors suggested he swim to become stronger. That started his great love for water. From then on, he would go to see the ocean for a vacation if he was free. One day, a friend gave him a pair of goggles (护目镜). These goggles were a game changer, which allowed him to see the breathtaking sight of the underwater world clearly for the very first time. ③At that time, the diving clothes were big and heavy. They made it hard for divers to move freely, and an air hose (软管) tied them to the boat. So Cousteau and his friend Emile Gagnan invented (发明) the Aqua Lung. It was the first tool that allowed divers to breathe underwater for a long time. With this, Cousteau was able to explore the ocean more freely. ④He bought a boat on vacation and changed it into a place for research and making films. He sailed around the world. He explored the cold waters of Antarctica and saw many interesting animals like penguins and whales. In Australia, he saw beautiful coral reefs (珊瑚礁) and even met the strange sea dragon-like a leaf. ⑤Cousteau made a lot of books and films based on (基于) his travel and exploration experiences. His TV show lets people see the amazing sea animals at home. Also, he started the Cousteau Society to teach people about the ocean and how to protect it from pollution. Thanks to him, more and more people began to care about the ocean. ⑥From a weak boy to a great explorer of the sea. Jacques Cousteau’s life was truly special. His work not only opened our eyes to the beauty of the ocean but also taught us why we must keep it clean and safe. Because of him, countless people learned to love and respect the watery world. 1.What does “a game changer” in Paragraph ②mean? A. A popular water game. B. A dress for swimming. C. A thing that causes a big change. D. A tool for playing games underwater. 2.Why did Cousteau and his friend invent the Aqua Lung? A. Because they wanted to make money. B. Because they wanted to become famous. C. Because the diving suits were expensive. D. Because the old suits limited movement and breath. 3.What did Cousteau see in Australia? A. Penguins and whales. B. Fish and leaves. C. Strange fish and dolphins. D. Coral reefs and sea dragons. 4.What can we know from the passage? A. The Cousteau Society did little. B. Cousteau’s TV show wasn’t popular. C. Cousteau explored only near France. D. Without the Aqua Lung, free ocean exploration was hard. 5.What’s the structure of the passage? A. ①/②③④⑤⑥ B. ①②/③④⑤⑥ C. ①/②③④⑤/⑥ D. ①②/③④⑤/⑥ 【答案】1. C　2. D　3. D　4. D　5. C 【解析】【导语】 本文是一篇记叙文，介绍了著名海洋探险家雅克·库斯托的一生。 (1)题解析： 词句猜测题。根据第二段“These goggles were a game changer, which allowed him to see the breathtaking sight of the underwater world clearly for the very first time.”可知，这副护目镜让他第一次清晰看到水下世界的惊人景象，彻底改变了他对水下世界的认知，因此“a game changer”指“带来巨大变化的事物”。故选C。 (2)题解析： 细节理解题。根据第三段“At that time, the diving clothes were big and heavy. They made it hard for divers to move freely, and an air hose tied them to the boat. So Cousteau and his friend Emile Gagnan invented the Aqua Lung.”可知，老式潜水服又大又重，限制潜水员自由移动，且空气软管将他们与船绑定，难以自由呼吸，因此库斯托和朋友发明了水肺。故选D。 (3)题解析： 细节理解题。根据第四段“In Australia, he saw beautiful coral reefs and even met the strange sea dragon-like a leaf.”可知，库斯托在澳大利亚看到了珊瑚礁和像叶子一样的奇特海龙。故选D。 (4)题解析： 细节理解题。根据第三段“It was the first tool that allowed divers to breathe underwater for a long time.

To my joy, my parents allowed me to build a test kitchen. I did much cooking to test my dishes in it and my skill improved quickly. Later, my mom and I set up a dinner club that organized monthly events inside my home. Now as a teen chef (主厨), I have also cooked in top-class restaurants around the country. I am not doing it for the money, but because I love cooking. Now I know that when you stop caring whether you’ll be famous or do well, your dream will come to you. 1.The writer is now ________.

Kai played a guqin solo, and for most of the show, he played along with the rhythm (节奏) of the drums. The band played faster and faster. Kai’s classmates jumped to their feet, clapping and shouting. When the music ended, there was an awkward silence (尴尬的沉默). They all looked at the teachers. Mr Li asked, “What were you trying to express?” Kai answered in a low voice, “I wanted to do something different… to modernize (使现代化) the guqin’s sound.” “Well, it’s a good try. But you know it has over 3,000 years of history. I don’t think you showed the characteristics (特点) well,” said Mr Li. “The music was… We nearly couldn’t hear the guqin,” added Miss Zhou. “I’m afraid I can’t give you high marks.” “Please, can I have another chance?” begged Kai.

Alone in the hall later, Kai sat in his chair, feeling a little sad. “I understand what you were trying to do,” Kai looked up and saw Miss Zhou by his side. “But before you can break the rules, you have to fully understand and be good at them.” Kai was bewildered. What did she mean? “The guqin is connected (联系) to nature. The bottom board stands for the ground, and the rounded top board stands for the sky. A wonderful guqin performance shows the harmony (和谐) between people and nature.” “Miss Zhou, is it fine to play the guqin with other instruments?” “Because it is so quiet,” answered Miss Zhou, “people usually play it alone. Sometimes, people play it with the dizi or another guqin. Every note matters. And you know, there’s Chinese philosophy (哲理) behind every form of art. That’s what makes Chinese art special. We should try hard to keep the value of traditions and connect them with modern life.” “Is it true that Confucius played the guqin?” “That’s correct. Confucius believed that music was an important part of a well-rounded (全面) education. It could help a person develop his inner self.” “Can I make it modern?” Kai was thinking if he had asked a stupid (愚蠢的) question. “Ancient musicians followed traditions to show respect. To modernize it, try to find the right way to keep the value. How will you change your piece?” “I’m not sure yet,” said Kai. “But I’m going to do something different again.” That night, Kai kept thinking about the next show. “How can I show the guqin and balance the traditional spirit with a modern character?” he asked himself.

He could even taste Grandma’s delicious cakes and play with Grandpa on the farm. Oh, how he wished he were there right now! Michael sat up and looked through his bag. Books and papers fell out onto the bed. Finally, he pulled out his drawing book. Then he searched his drawer and found his drawing pencils and an eraser. He smiled to himself. His parents never really understood his attachment to his grandparents’ cottage. Michael began to draw the picture: the cottage, the trees, the path (小路), and the lake. But the more he tried to draw the small details, the harder it became to see them clearly in his mind. Just then, the phone rang. Michael heard his mom saying something on the phone. A few minutes later, Mom came into his room. “Grandma called,” she said. Michael’s heart sank (低落). “Oh no!” he thought. “Is anything going to stop my summer trip?” “Grandpa needs help cleaning up the house this summer,” Mom said. “They want to know if you would like to stay with them this summer holiday and help out.” Michael’s eyes lit up.

That’s why she has problems running freely or even walking quickly. On a beautiful spring day, at 4:00 pm, she came home and told me that she joined in “field day”. On that day, students usually have lots of races, games, matches and competitions. They join in the “field day” and win prizes. Because of her brace, my mind raced, “She must be very upset. What should I say to make her cheer up?” So I tried to think of words of encouragement for my poor Sarah, things I could say to her about not letting this get her down—things I have heard many famous coaches tell the players when they were faced with failure. But before I could say a word, she looked up and said happily, “Daddy, I won two of the races.” I couldn’t believe it. Then Sarah said, “I had an advantage.” Aha, I knew it. She must have been given a head start—some kind of physical (身体上的) advantage. I thought to myself. But again, before I could say anything, she said, “Daddy, I didn’t get a head start...My advantage was I had to try harder!” 1.What do we know about Sarah? A. She is always very upset. B.

It was the last school term for Darrell Rivers, the novel’s main character. The girls were talking about what they were going to do after they left school. Their conversation led me to think about what it was exactly that I wanted to become when I grew up. I got lost in thought. While some teenagers (青少年) have made a clear plan for themselves, my future looks so misty and uncertain. There are so many alternatives. How can I be sure that I will end up choosing a life that is meaningful? The story in Malory Towers moved on. Darrell, as the head girl of the boarding school, said to the other girls, “One day, you will leave this school and go out into the world as young women.
