“Making a large lantern takes over 15 steps,” said Wan Songtao, an inheritor (传承人) of Zigong lantern-making. One team works on one step. The famous sundial (日晷) lantern took about 15 teams, including about 80 makers, over 50 days to complete.

To keep up with the times, Zigong lantern makers now use modern technologies to help them. “We used to design the lanterns all by ourselves,” said Wan. “Now we also use AI for good ideas.”
With the encouragement of the government, the lanterns are now a name card for the city. Until this year, Zigong has held the 31st Lantern Festival. Zigong lanterns have gone to more than 500 cities in China and more than 80 countries around the world. They certainly bring much fun and warmth to people during many traditional Chinese festivals.

【解析】
【导语】本文是记叙文,讲述了美国女孩Cathy四年前夏天和家人的中国旅行经历,按行程顺序介绍了在北京、西安、上海三座城市的每日活动与相关安排。
【36题详解】
根据文章Day 1部分“We chose it because it is just 15 minutes’ walk to the Forbidden City.”可知,Cathy一家选择的酒店步行到故宫仅需15分钟,选择该酒店的原因是位置优越。
【37题详解】
根据文章Day 5部分“Spent five hours on the train going there”,结合行程第二站为西安的信息可知,一家人乘坐火车前往西安。
【38题详解】
根据文章Day 6部分“only for adults and kids over 10 or taller than 1.4 meters, while Dad and my little sister Jane took the sightseeing car”可知,西安城墙骑行有年龄和身高限制,Jane是小妹妹,可推断她因为年龄太小不符合骑行要求。
【39题详解】
根据文章Day 7部分“Visited the modern high-rise buildings in Pudong New Area in the morning”和“Experienced the longtang culture of the old town of Shanghai in the afternoon”可知,Cathy一家在上海既参观了现代高楼,也体验了老城区的传统建筑文化。

The Zigong Lantern Festival in Zigong, Sichuan has a long history. It has been a national-level intangible cultural heritage (国家级非物质文化遗产) since 2008.
“Making a large lantern takes over 15 steps,” said Wan Songtao, an inheritor (传承人) of Zigong lantern-making. One team works on one step. The famous sundial (日晷) lantern took about 15 teams, including about 80 makers, over 50 days to complete.
Zigong lanterns are famous for their creative themes. You can find lanterns of the Chinese zodiac (生肖), astronauts, and so on. “Anything that can be designed (设计) on a lantern can make a wonderful show, and everyone is encouraged to turn their ideas into real works,” said Zhang Fanglai, a leading researcher at the Colorful Lantern Museum of China. To keep up with the times, Zigong lantern makers now use modern technologies to help them. “We used to design the lanterns all by ourselves,” said Wan. “Now we also use AI for good ideas.”
With the encouragement of the government, the lanterns are now a name card for the city. Until this year, Zigong has held the 31st Lantern Festival. Zigong lanterns have gone to more than 500 cities in China and more than 80 countries around the world. They certainly bring much fun and warmth to people during many traditional Chinese festivals.

根据第二段“‘Making a large lantern takes over 15 steps,’…The famous sundial lantern took about 15 teams, including about 80 makers, over 50 days to complete.”可知,制作大型灯笼步骤繁多且耗时耗力,说明制作过程是困难的。

When you are reading something in English, you may often encounter a new word. What’s the best way to know it?
You may look it up in the English-Chinese dictionary. It will tell you everything about the word: the pronunciation, the part of speech (词性), the Chinese meaning and how to use this word. But how can you find it in a dictionary quickly?
First, all the English words are in the alphabetical (按字母顺序的) order. In the dictionary, you can first see the words beginning with A, then B, C, D… That means, if there are two words, “do” and “put”, “do” will be before “put”. Then, if there are two words both beginning with the same letter, you may look at the second letter, then the third, the fourth ... for example, “pat” is before “picture”, and “bald” is before “balloon”.
Then what can you do to learn about the word after finding it in the dictionary?
First, you should choose the information wisely. You can choose the part of speech and the meaning by relating to the passage! It is necessary to compare the information when you choose. Only in this way can we know which information is more accurate (准确的). We can decide which explanation to use by putting it in the passage. After that, check whether the passage is fluent (流畅的) with the meaning we get from a dictionary.
46. What’s the first step of looking up a word in a dictionary?

【导语】本文主要介绍了当阅读英文遇到生词时,使用英汉词典是了解生词的最佳方式,它能提供单词的发音、词性、中文意思和用法等信息,还介绍了如何快速在词典中找到单词以及找到单词后如何明智地选择其信息,展现了英汉词典在阅读英文时的重要作用及使用方法。
【46题详解】
细节理解题。根据“First, all the English words are in the alphabetical (按字母顺序的) order. In the dictionary, you can first see the words beginning with A, then B, C, D...”以及后文举例说明如何按字母顺序找单词可知,在词典中查单词的第一步是定位单词,而不是比较信息、检查文章或发音。故选A。
【47题详解】
词句猜测题。根据“Then, if there are two words both beginning with the same letter, you may look at the second letter, then the third, the fourth ... for example, “pat” is before “picture”, and “bald” is before “balloon”.”可知,这里说的是如果两个单词首字母相同,就看第二个字母,以此类推,所以“letter”意思是“字母”。故选B。
【48题详解】
推理判断题。根据“First, all the English words are in the alphabetical (按字母顺序的) order.”以及单词按字母顺序排列的规则,“sentence”首字母“s”,“secure”首字母“s”,“humorous”首字母“h”,“guard”首字母“g”,首字母顺序为“g”<“h”<“s”,首字母和第二个字母相同的“sentence”和“secure”,“sentence”第三个字母“n”在字母表中排在“secure”第三个字母“c”后,因此secure排在sentence前,所以顺序是④③②①。故选D。
【49题详解】
细节理解题。根据“First, you should choose the information wisely. You can choose the part of speech and the meaning by relating to the passage!”可知,可以通过将单词与文章联系起来明智地选择其词性和意思。故选B。
【50题详解】
主旨大意题。文章主要围绕如何使用英汉词典展开,包括如何快速找到单词以及找到后如何选择其信息等,而不是如何快速阅读、词典的重要性或一个单词的不同意思。故选C。
