When we talk about Chinese handmade paper, you probably think of Xuan paper. However, there are different kinds in different places, and Lianshi paper from Fujian is one of them.
Going back 400 years, Lianshi paper is made by hand using bamboo. According to Fujian Daily, Lianshi paper weighs only 19 grams every square metre, but it is strong. Thanks to this, Lianshi paper was listed as a provincial intangible cultural heritage (省级非物质文化遗产) in Fujian in 2008.
Deng Jinkun, 54, has been learning to make Lianshi paper for 30 years. He said the process of making Lianshi paper involves 72 steps, including cutting bamboo, soaking (浸湿), making pulp (纸浆), and drying. What makes it stand out is its bleaching (漂白) technology. “In May each year, bamboo is cut, and soaked in lime (石灰) twice. It is then heated at a high temperature. After that, it’s bleached on the mountain for four months,” Deng said. “The natural bleaching process makes it white,” he added.
Besides carrying on the traditional art, Deng also brought in new ideas at the same time. Traditionally the pulp is collected using a wooden shelf held by two people. “Our Lianshi paper needs only one person as we use strings (绳子) to hang one side,” Deng said.
When they heat the paper, the baking wall is also special. According to Deng, other places use lime to make the wall. “After a trip to the University of Science and Technology of China in 2018, I decided to use a special kind of clay to make the wall so that it lasts longer,” he said. After it is built, the baking wall can be used to make paper for 40 years.
21. How does the writer start the passage?
A. By telling a story. B. By making a comparison.
C. By listing some facts. D. By asking a question.
22. What steps of making Lianshi paper are mentioned according to the passage?
a. making lime b. cutting bamboo c. soaking d. making pulp e. colouring
A. a, b and d B. b, c and d C. b, c and e D. b, d and e
23. What can we probably infer from the passage?
A. Xuan paper is from Fujian.
B. Lianshi paper is light but not strong.
C. Deng Jinkun is a creative maker of Lianshi paper.
D. There are only two kinds of Chinese handmade paper.
24. What would be the best structure of the passage? (①=Paragraph 1, ②=Paragraph 2 …)
A. B. C. D.
25. What does the writer mainly want to tell us?
A. How to make Lianshi paper in a traditional way.
B. The introduction and development of Lianshi paper.
C. Why Lianshi paper became an intangible cultural heritage.
D. The life story of Deng Jinkun, a Lianshi paper-making craftsman.
【答案】21. B 22. B 23. C 24. C 25. B

【导语】本文是一篇说明文,主要介绍了福建连史纸的历史、制作工艺、传承与创新,以及它作为省级非物质文化遗产的价值。
【21题详解】
第一段通过将“中国手工纸”让人想到“宣纸”与“福建连史纸”进行对比,引出文章主题,因此开头方式为作比较(By making a comparison)。
【22题详解】
第二段提到连史纸用竹子手工制作;第三段提到制作过程包括“cutting bamboo, soaking, making pulp, and drying”,即砍竹、浸湿、制作纸浆等步骤。选项中没有“drying”,但b(cutting bamboo)、c(soaking)、d(making pulp)均被提及,因此选B。
【23题详解】
第四段和第五段提到邓金坤在传承传统技艺的同时引入新想法,如用绳子悬挂一侧、用特殊黏土制作焙墙等,说明他是一位有创新精神的连史纸制作者。
【24题详解】
文章结构为:第一段引出连史纸;第二段介绍其历史与地位;第三至第五段介绍制作工艺、传承与创新。整体为“总—分”结构,第一段为总起,后文为具体介绍。

For student Chen Honghan, the journey to school has changed from a treacherous 3-hour walk to a safe thirty-minute trip that feels like flying through the clouds, thanks to the “cloud school bus”.
Chen comes from Nizhuhe village located at the border of Yunnan and Guizhou provinces. For years, Chen and her classmates walked on muddy routes to reach their school high on the top of the cliffs (悬崖).
However, this challenging journey has now changed into a wonderful tour. They first ride a 6-minute scenic bus and then take a lift that climbs 268 metres. Next, they take a cable car ride that climbs over 200 metres. After a 1-kilometre walk, they arrive at the school in just under 30 minutes.
The change began with the introduction of the eco-cultural tourism in 2017. The project helped build a cliffside lift in 2018 and a cable car in 2022. They were made free for the villagers there.
The “cloud school bus” not only safely sends the village children to school but has also attracted many tourists to the area.
In 2024, 300,000 visitors came, bringing in the profit of nearly 20 million yuan. This also has improved villagers’ lives, with many starting businesses like farmstays, coffee shops and guesthouses. Additionally, some villagers have returned to their hometowns to contribute to this growth.
Cai Xiong is one of them who led many amazing projects like the cliffside lift. “This tourism project is not only meant to help the villagers succeed, but also to serve as a ‘ladder to the clouds’ for the children. I hope they will climb this ladder, gain experience and grow, and finally return with the skills to make their hometown even better,” he said.
26. What does the underlined word “treacherous” in paragraph 1 probably mean?
A. Busy. B. Dangerous. C. Boring. D. Long.
27. What is the correct order of the students’ journey to school at present?
A. B.
C. D.
28. Which is NOT an advantage of the “cloud school bus”?
A. It improves students’ safety during their school journey.
B. It attracts a great number of tourists to visit Nizhuhe village.
C. It provides villagers with better lives and a bright future.
D. It encourages villagers to leave their village for better jobs.
29. What is the main purpose of the passage?
A. To describe the dangers of walking to school in mountainous areas.
B. To explain how education has improved in Yunnan and Guizhou.
C. To show how a tourism project changed villagers’ lives and education.
D. To introduce Cai Xiong’s contributions to building lifts and cable cars.
30. In which part of a newspaper can we probably find the passage?
A. Education. B. Sports. C. Science. D. Environment.
【答案】26. B 27. B 28. D 29. C 30. A
【解析】
【导语】本文展示旅游项目如何改变村民的生活和教育。
【26题详解】
词句猜测题。根据“For student Chen Honghan, the journey to school has changed from a treacherous 3-hour walk to a safe thirty-minute trip that feels like flying through the clouds”可知上学之路已从一段险象环生、需耗时三小时的徒步跋涉,转变为一段安全无忧、仅需三十分钟、仿佛在云端飞驰的旅程。因此treacherous意思是“危险”,故选B。
【27题详解】
细节理解题。根据“They first ride a 6-minute scenic bus and then take a lift that climbs 268 metres. Next, they take a cable car ride that climbs over 200 metres. After a 1-kilometre walk, they arrive at the school in just under 30 minutes.”可知他们首先乘坐6分钟的观光巴士,然后搭乘一部上升268米的电梯。接下来,他们乘坐缆车,缆车上升高度超过200米。再步行1公里后,他们在不到30分钟的时间内就到达了学校。故选B。
【28题详解】
细节理解题。根据“I hope they will climb this ladder, gain experience and grow, and finally return with the skills to make their hometown even better,”可知是最终带着能让家乡变得更好的技能归来,而不是“它鼓励村民离开他们的村庄寻找更好的工作”。故选D。
【29题详解】
主旨大意题。本文展示旅游项目如何改变村民的生活和教育。故选C。
【30题详解】
推理判断题。本文展示旅游项目如何改变村民的生活和教育。因此可能出现在报纸的教育部分,故选A。

Reading history books can let us learn from great people and live better. A history book that you can’t miss is Historical Records or Shiji. Historical Records is the first biographical (传记) general history of China. Sima Qian, an official during the Western Han Dynasty (206BC-24AD) wrote it. The work records the events beginning with the famous Yellow Emperor and ending with the first years of the Han Wudi period, covering around 3,000 years.
In this book, I really like how the writer describes different people. For example, there’s Da Yu, the founder of the Xia Dynasty. He tried so hard to stop a big flood that he refused to enter his home while passing by three times. His selflessness really touched me. I also hope to be a great person like Da Yu.
There are also two legendary farmers, Chen Sheng and Wu Guang. They stood up and led a group of people against the tyrannical (残暴的) Qin Shi Huang in the Qin Dynasty. They won against the Qin and led the way for the Han Dynasty. Their story shows that every human, whatever his birth, can become someone great if he tries his best.
When I read this book, I could see how Sima Qian made the characters come alive with his words. This makes the book filled with strong feelings of love and hate, and I love the stories.

When we talk about Chinese handmade paper, you probably think of Xuan paper. However, there are different kinds in different places, and Lianshi paper from Fujian is one of them.
Going back 400 years, Lianshi paper is made by hand using bamboo. According to Fujian Daily, Lianshi paper weighs only 19 grams every square metre, but it is strong. Thanks to this, Lianshi paper was listed as a provincial intangible cultural heritage (省级非物质文化遗产) in Fujian in 2008.
Deng Jinkun, 54, has been learning to make Lianshi paper for 30 years. He said the process of making Lianshi paper involves 72 steps, including cutting bamboo, soaking (浸湿), making pulp (纸浆), and drying. What makes it stand out is its bleaching (漂白) technology. “In May each year, bamboo is cut, and soaked in lime (石灰) twice. It is then heated at a high temperature. After that, it’s bleached on the mountain for four months,” Deng said. “The natural bleaching process makes it white,” he added.
Besides carrying on the traditional art, Deng also brought in new ideas at the same time. Traditionally the pulp is collected using a wooden shelf held by two people. “Our Lianshi paper needs only one person as we use strings (绳子) to hang one side,” Deng said.
When they heat the paper, the baking wall is also special. According to Deng, other places use lime to make the wall. “After a trip to the University of Science and Technology of China in 2018, I decided to use a special kind of clay to make the wall so that it lasts longer,” he said. After it is built, the baking wall can be used to make paper for 40 years.
21. How does the writer start the passage?
A. By telling a story. B. By making a comparison.
C. By listing some facts. D. By asking a question.
22. What steps of making Lianshi paper are mentioned according to the passage?
a. making lime b. cutting bamboo c. soaking d. making pulp e. colouring
A. a, b and d B. b, c and d C. b, c and e D. b, d and e
23. What can we probably infer from the passage?
A. Xuan paper is from Fujian.
B. Lianshi paper is light but not strong.
C. Deng Jinkun is a creative maker of Lianshi paper.
D. There are only two kinds of Chinese handmade paper.
24. What would be the best structure of the passage? (①=Paragraph 1, ②=Paragraph 2 …)
A. B. C. D.
25. What does the writer mainly want to tell us?
A. How to make Lianshi paper in a traditional way.

For student Chen Honghan, the journey to school has changed from a treacherous 3-hour walk to a safe thirty-minute trip that feels like flying through the clouds, thanks to the “cloud school bus”.
Chen comes from Nizhuhe village located at the border of Yunnan and Guizhou provinces. For years, Chen and her classmates walked on muddy routes to reach their school high on the top of the cliffs (悬崖).
However, this challenging journey has now changed into a wonderful tour. They first ride a 6-minute scenic bus and then take a lift that climbs 268 metres. Next, they take a cable car ride that climbs over 200 metres. After a 1-kilometre walk, they arrive at the school in just under 30 minutes.
The change began with the introduction of the eco-cultural tourism in 2017. The project helped build a cliffside lift in 2018 and a cable car in 2022. They were made free for the villagers there.
The “cloud school bus” not only safely sends the village children to school but has also attracted many tourists to the area.
In 2024, 300,000 visitors came, bringing in the profit of nearly 20 million yuan. This also has improved villagers’ lives, with many starting businesses like farmstays, coffee shops and guesthouses. Additionally, some villagers have returned to their hometowns to contribute to this growth.
Cai Xiong is one of them who led many amazing projects like the cliffside lift. “This tourism project is not only meant to help the villagers succeed, but also to serve as a ‘ladder to the clouds’ for the children. I hope they will climb this ladder, gain experience and grow, and finally return with the skills to make their hometown even better,” he said.
26. What does the underlined word “treacherous” in paragraph 1 probably mean?
A. Busy. B. Dangerous. C. Boring. D. Long.
27. What is the correct order of the students’ journey to school at present?
A. B.
C. D.
28. Which is NOT an advantage of the “cloud school bus”?
A. It improves students’ safety during their school journey.
B. It attracts a great number of tourists to visit Nizhuhe village.
C. It provides villagers with better lives and a bright future.
D. It encourages villagers to leave their village for better jobs.
29. What is the main purpose of the passage?
A. To describe the dangers of walking to school in mountainous areas.
B. To explain how education has improved in Yunnan and Guizhou.
C. To show how a tourism project changed villagers’ lives and education.
D. To introduce Cai Xiong’s contributions to building lifts and cable cars.
30. In which part of a newspaper can we probably find the passage?
A. Education. B. Sports. C. Science. D. Environment.

Reading history books can let us learn from great people and live better. A history book that you can’t miss is Historical Records or Shiji. Historical Records is the first biographical (传记) general history of China. Sima Qian, an official during the Western Han Dynasty (206BC-24AD) wrote it. The work records the events beginning with the famous Yellow Emperor and ending with the first years of the Han Wudi period, covering around 3,000 years.
In this book, I really like how the writer describes different people. For example, there’s Da Yu, the founder of the Xia Dynasty. He tried so hard to stop a big flood that he refused to enter his home while passing by three times. His selflessness really touched me. I also hope to be a great person like Da Yu.
There are also two legendary farmers, Chen Sheng and Wu Guang. They stood up and led a group of people against the tyrannical (残暴的) Qin Shi Huang in the Qin Dynasty. They won against the Qin and led the way for the Han Dynasty. Their story shows that every human, whatever his birth, can become someone great if he tries his best.
When I read this book, I could see how Sima Qian made the characters come alive with his words. This makes the book filled with strong feelings of love and hate, and I love the stories.
46. The writer was ________ by Da Yu because he tried so hard to stop a big flood.(仅填1词)
