Many traditional artists are starting to perform online. Because of this new way of performing, young people are becoming more interested in traditional culture. Peking Opera 　　China’s month-long online Peking Opera season, from 8th August to 6th September, got 21 million likes and many of the new fans are teenagers. During the shows, the performers talked to the people online and answered questions. It is more interesting than sitting in a theatre. Crosstalk (相声) 　　Gao Xiaopan, a crosstalk performer, added something new to his performances such as the guitar. Gao set up his own Crosstalk Club in Beijing in 2004. But because fewer and fewer people went to watch the show in the theatre, he moved his shows online. On 28th March, Gao had his first online show and more than 1.2 million people watched this show. It is impossible in a theatre. Traditional Clothing 　　There was a fashion show online on 26th March, the third China Hanfu Day. Traditional clothes have been more and more popular these days. In the show, performers showed clothes from the Wei (220—265), Tang (618—907) and Ming (1368—1644) dynasties. 1．Who are the main new fans of Peking Opera? A．Performers. B．Teenagers. C．Old people. D．Internet users. 2．The underlined word “It” in the passage refers to (指的是) ________. A．Gao has his first online show B．fewer and fewer people went to watch the show in the theatre C．he moved his shows online D．more than 1.2 million people watched this show 3．What can we infer (推断) from the passage?

D．A travel guide. 【答案】1．B 2．D 3．D 4．A 5．C 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要讲述随着计算机科学发展，一些人开创线上新形式来欣赏传统文化，京剧、相声、汉服秀等传统艺术搬到网络演出，吸引了大量年轻人。   【详解】1．Peking Opera部分指出：“got 21 million likes and many of the new fans are teenagers”，结合第一段“young people are becoming more interested in traditional culture.”，可推断出青少年是京剧主要的新粉丝群体。 2．Crosstalk部分说明：“Gao had his first online show and more than 1.2 million people watched this show”，这里的“It”指代“一百二十多万人观看这场演出”这件事，在剧场里是不可能实现的。 3．第一段点明：“some people create a new way for people to enjoy traditional culture...young people are becoming more interested in traditional culture”，由此推断线上展示、欣赏传统文化的新方式正变得流行。注意选项C为原文直接陈述的事实，不是推断的内容。 4．Traditional Clothing部分指出：“performers showed clothes from the Wei (220—265),Tang (618—907) and Ming (1368—1644) dynasties”，可知汉服秀展示了魏朝、唐朝、明朝的服饰，选项里有魏朝。 5．全文介绍京剧、相声、汉服等传统文化线上展演，属于文化内容，因此文章很可能出自一本文化杂志。 B At an early age, we start learning how to manage money by watching our parents’ spending habits. Don’t worry if we haven’t learned well how to save or spend money. The following life lessons about money can help us form good spending habits. Money doesn’t grow on trees. As kids, we don’t often think about where money comes from. We need to know that our parents work hard to make money, and that it may be used up one day. Going to their workplaces to watch how they work is a great way to understand money is not that easy to make. We shouldn’t spend all our money in one go. It’s important for us to have a budget (预算) . In other words, we need to think about how much money we have and what we really want to spend it on. Realizing that our pocket money can’t cover everything we want, we should make smart spending choices. We should set a clear goal and watch our money grow. If we wish to own a new bicycle but can’t afford it, we can save our pocket money. How? Write down how much money we have in a notebook and watch it grow. After we have enough, we can buy that wonderful bicycle we’ve dreamed about! Reaching our goal will greatly satiate (满足) us. We can talk with our parents about how money is used and where money goes. Do you know what a bank account (账户) is? If not, communicate with our parents. We can also go to the supermarket with our parents to experience how money is spent in the real world. Without doubt (怀疑) . we should treat money in a right way. Actually, learning about money isn’t a hard job. From these lessons, we can get a sense of money management and right money values step by step! 1．What is the key to making smart spending choices?

In other words, we need to think about how much money we have and what we really want to spend it on. Realizing that our pocket money can’t cover everything we want, we should make smart spending choices.”，做好预算、消费前规划是理性消费的关键。 2．根据文章第四段“We should set a clear goal and watch our money grow. If we wish to own a new bicycle but can’t afford it, we can save our pocket money.”，作者举买自行车的例子，是为了告诉我们要设立存钱目标。 3．根据文章第四段“After we have enough, we can buy that wonderful bicycle we’ve dreamed about! Reaching our goal will greatly satiate us.”，完成储蓄目标会让人获得满足感。 4．全文围绕四条管理金钱的方法展开，核心主题是理财的方式。 5．文章第一段总起引出理财经验，第二至第五段并列介绍四条理财方法，第六段总结全文，属于总分总结构，总段①，分述②③④⑤，总结段⑥，对应图示A。 C Long ago, in ancient China, there was a story about the invention of silk. People believed that silk was first invented by Leizu, the wife of the Yellow Emperor. Leizu learned how to make cocoons (蚕茧) into soft and strong cloth. This magical cloth became known as “silk”, and it was so valuable that it was called “China’s Gold”. Following kings’ orders, the Chinese kept the secret of making silk for centuries. But then, something amazing happened! During the Han Dynasty, the brave officer Zhang Qian traveled west as far as Central Asia and brought silk there. As years passed by, silk became so important that the trade road from Europe to China got its name—the Silk Road. The Silk Road became a busy highway for traders who carried things across deserts and mountains. ________ In return, they received treasures such as spices (香料), gold and silver from the West. At the very beginning, it was mainly about trade, then people began to share ideas, technologies and cultures. For example, Chinese inventions like paper-making were spread to the West, while new ideas about math and science came to China. Most importantly, the Silk Road helped different cultures learn from each other. Art, music and even language were shared along this ancient road. In places like the Dunhuang Grottoes (敦煌石窟) in China, you can see how art pieces combined (融合) Eastern and Western styles into something distinctive. It cannot be seen anywhere else. The story of the Silk Road tells us how people from faraway lands could become friends through trade and shared ideas. Today, we remember the Silk Road as one of the greatest examples of cooperation and exchange in history. It shows us how important it is to learn about and respect each other’s traditions, and that different cultures can work together to create amazing things. 1．The story of silk is mentioned in Paragraph 1 to show . A．who discovered silk first B．how to make silk clothes C．silk is very valuable D．why the Silk Road began 2．Which of the following can be put in “________” in Paragraph 3? A．People from China sold silk and tea. B．They brought silk and tea to China. C．People in the West sold silk and tea. D．Silk and tea were bought by China. 3．What is the right order of the following facts from the passage? ①Zhang Qian traveled west with silk ②Art and language were shared along the Silk Road. ③Traders from China and the West exchanged things. ④The Chinese were ordered to keep the secret of making silk. A．①→④→③→② B．①→③→④→② C．④→①→③→② D．④→③→②→① 4．What does the underlined word “distinctive” mean in Paragraph 4? A．Special. B．Public. C．Popular. D．Strong. 5．What is the best title for the passage? A．How Silk Was Invented in China. B．A Brave Officer: Zhang Qian. C．Trade Between the East and West. D．The Silk Road: History and Culture. 【答案】1．C 2．A 3．C 4．A 5．D 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，先介绍了丝绸的起源与价值，再讲述张骞出使西域推动丝绸外传，进而形成丝绸之路，最后阐述丝绸之路在贸易、文化、技术交流方面的重要意义与历史价值。 【详解】1．第一段提到丝绸被称为“中国黄金”，且中国人为保密数百年，说明丝绸极为珍贵。因此提到丝绸的故事是为了展示丝绸的价值。 2．根据第三段中“In return, they received treasures such as spices, gold and silver from the West.”可知，空格处应描述中国向外输出什么，作为交换，他们从西方得到了香料、金银等珍宝。选项A“中国人出售丝绸和茶叶”符合语境，描述了中国向外输出的商品。 3．根据文章内容：首先，中国人被命令保守丝绸制作的秘密“the Chinese kept the secret of making silk for centuries”（④）；然后，张骞出使西域，将丝绸带到西方“the brave officer Zhang Qian traveled west as far as Central Asia and brought silk there”（①）；接着，商人们进行贸易往来“The Silk Road became a busy highway for traders who carried things across deserts and mountains.”（③）；最后，艺术和语言沿着丝绸之路交流融合“Art, music and even language were shared along this ancient road.”（②）。因此，这些事实的正确顺序是④→①→③→②。 4．根据第四段中“In places like the Dunhuang Grottoes in China, you can see how art pieces combined Eastern and Western styles into something distinctive.”可知，在敦煌石窟这样的地方，你可以看到艺术作品如何将东西方风格融合成一种独特的风格。结合选项可知，distinctive意为“独特的”，与special意思相近。 5．文章从丝绸起源引出丝绸之路，重点讲述了丝绸之路上的贸易往来以及文化、科技、艺术的交流与融合，最后总结其历史意义。因此D项“丝绸之路：历史与文化”最能概括全文主旨。 第二节阅读下面语篇,根据语篇内容回答问题。(共5小题,每小题2分，共10分) Have you seen the clay soldiers (黏土士兵) in Xi’an’s Terracotta (兵马俑) Army Museum? Do you know the true colours of them? More than 2,000 years ago, Qin Shi Huang, the first emperor of China, ordered people to build the Terracotta Army. He hoped that the army would protect him after he died. In 1974, some farmers found several clay soldiers by accident in Xi’an. After that, about 8,000 more were found by archaeologists. Today, the clay soldiers in Xi’an’s terracotta museum are light brown. But they weren’t always this colour. When they were made, they had colours like white, green, blue, red, purple and yellow. Sadly, most of the colours have disappeared now. An area with more than a hundred clay soldiers was discovered by archaeologists a few years ago. Many of them still had black hair, pink faces and black or brown eyes when they were found. If they were not protected well, their colours would disappear, too. After a clay soldier was found, archaeologists used two steps to keep its colour. First, they sprayed (喷) a kind of special “water” on it. Then, they covered it with plastic.

Although such activities 1 great danger, some people live for them. But sometimes we also need to 2 know when to slow down. Recently I went quad biking, or ATV driving, on a track in the mountains. After a short 3 , we put on our helmets, started our engines and got onto the track. The sound of the engine was exciting. As I got more confident, I couldn’t help overtaking 4 was in front of me. Finally the way forward opened up and I went ahead of the others. I turned toward a small hill and raced down. Soon I realized this was a big 5 . My ATV turned over at full speed and I 6 a long way from my ATV. Luckily, I knew it was happening and pushed 7 out of the way of the falling ATV. If I had not, I probably would have broken my leg because of the 8 of the ATV, or I might have even broken my neck. It ended up turning out fine, just some soreness in my chest for a week or so. This came as a shock to my friend. After seeing the accident, he said to me, “Dude, I thought you were dead.” Perhaps I could have died, if I hadn’t been 9 that day. That event was one I’ll always remember for the adventure(冒险) and the near-death experience. It’s good to be adventurous, but it’s still important 10 unnecessary risks, too. So, go on adventures, but be smart while you’re on them. 【答案】1.involve 2．wisely 3．training 4．whoever 5．mistake 6．was thrown 7．myself 8．weight 9．lucky 10．to avoid 【导语】本文围绕作者进行四轮摩托车（ATV）驾驶的经历展开，讲述在追求刺激和冒险时涉及的危险，以及因谨慎和幸运而避免严重伤害的故事，倡导在冒险的同时要明智地规避不必要的风险。 【详解】1．句意：虽然这样的活动涉及巨大的危险，但有些人却以此为生。空格处作谓语，结合下文“great danger”，此处是指涉及危险，备选词involve“涉及”符合语境，主语“such activities”为复数，且陈述一般事实用一般现在时，故填involve。 2．句意：但有时我们也需要明智地知道何时放慢速度。空格处修饰动词“know”，结合语境，此处是指明智地、聪明地知道，备选词wise“明智的”符合语境，需变为副词wisely修饰动词。 3．句意：经过简短的训练后，我们戴上头盔，启动引擎，上了赛道。空格处作介词After的宾语，结合下文“put on our helmets...”，此处是指训练，备选词train“训练”符合语境，前面有形容词short修饰，用名词形式training。 4．句意：随着我越来越自信，我忍不住超过了任何在我前面的人。空格处引导宾语从句并作从句主语，结合下文“was in front of me”，此处是指无论谁/任何人，备选词who“谁”符合语境，为了强调“任何人”这一泛指概念，且符合语法逻辑，需变为不定代词whoever。 5．句意：很快我意识到这是一个大错误。空格处作表语，结合下文“My ATV turned over”，此处是指错误，备选词mistake“错误”符合语境，前面有不定冠词a，用单数形式mistake。 6．句意：我的全地形车以全速翻倒，我被甩到了离车很远的地方。空格处作谓语，结合上文“turned over”可知时态为一般过去时，此处是指被甩出，备选词throw“扔”符合语境，主语I与throw之间是被动关系，故用被动语态was thrown。 7．句意：幸运的是，我知道正在发生什么，并把自己推到了下落的全地形车的路线之外。空格处作pushed的宾语，结合主语“I”，此处是指我自己，备选词me“我”符合语境，需变为反身代词myself。 8．句意：如果不是这样，我可能会因为全地形车的重量而摔断腿，甚至可能摔断脖子。空格处作介词because of的宾语，结合语境，此处是指重量，备选词weigh“称重”符合语境，需变为名词形式weight。 9．句意：也许我已经死了，如果那天我不那么幸运的话。空格处作表语，结合上文“Luckily”和语境，此处是指幸运的，备选词luck“运气”符合语境，需变为形容词lucky。 10．句意：喜欢冒险是好事，但避免不必要的风险也很重要。空格处作it is important后的真正主语（不定式），结合下文“unnecessary risks”，此处是指避免，备选词avoid“避免”符合语境，用不定式to avoid。 六、书面表达(15分) 假定你是李华，你的英国网友Mary在网上发帖说，她每月有30英镑零花钱，但总是不到月底就花光了，她感到很苦恼。请你给她写一封信，给出合理的理财建议，并分享你的经验。 内容包括： (1) 表示理解并安慰她； (2) 给出至少两条具体建议 (如使用梦想罐、记账、先存后花等)； (3) 表达鼓励 (相信她能够合理支配零花钱)。 注意： (1) 不少于80词，开头和结尾已给出，不计入总词数； (2) 包含以上所有内容，可适当增加细节，以使行文连贯； (3) 文中不能出现真实的姓名、校名及地名等信息。 Dear Mary, I’m sorry to hear that you are having trouble managing your pocket money. ____________________________________________________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】参考范文．Dear Mary,      I’m sorry to hear that you are having trouble managing your pocket money.

B At an early age, we start learning how to manage money by watching our parents’ spending habits. Don’t worry if we haven’t learned well how to save or spend money. The following life lessons about money can help us form good spending habits. Money doesn’t grow on trees. As kids, we don’t often think about where money comes from. We need to know that our parents work hard to make money, and that it may be used up one day. Going to their workplaces to watch how they work is a great way to understand money is not that easy to make. We shouldn’t spend all our money in one go. It’s important for us to have a budget (预算) . In other words, we need to think about how much money we have and what we really want to spend it on. Realizing that our pocket money can’t cover everything we want, we should make smart spending choices. We should set a clear goal and watch our money grow. If we wish to own a new bicycle but can’t afford it, we can save our pocket money. How? Write down how much money we have in a notebook and watch it grow. After we have enough, we can buy that wonderful bicycle we’ve dreamed about! Reaching our goal will greatly satiate (满足) us. We can talk with our parents about how money is used and where money goes. Do you know what a bank account (账户) is? If not, communicate with our parents. We can also go to the supermarket with our parents to experience how money is spent in the real world. Without doubt (怀疑) . we should treat money in a right way. Actually, learning about money isn’t a hard job. From these lessons, we can get a sense of money management and right money values step by step! 1．What is the key to making smart spending choices? A．Buying everything we want B．Planning before spending. C．Asking for more pocket money. D．Working hard like our parents. 2．What does the writer want kids to do by giving the example of buying a bicycle? A．Buy a wonderful notebook. B．Make a free spending choice. C．Set a goal of saving money. D．Have an experience of shopping. 3．What can we learn from the text? A．Achieving a savings goal is satisfying. B．Bank accounts are unnecessary for kids. C．Going shopping alone is a good idea. D．Parents should control all money. 4．What is the best title for the text?

(①= para. 1    ②= para. 2    ③= para. 3…) A． B． C． D． C Long ago, in ancient China, there was a story about the invention of silk. People believed that silk was first invented by Leizu, the wife of the Yellow Emperor. Leizu learned how to make cocoons (蚕茧) into soft and strong cloth. This magical cloth became known as “silk”, and it was so valuable that it was called “China’s Gold”. Following kings’ orders, the Chinese kept the secret of making silk for centuries. But then, something amazing happened! During the Han Dynasty, the brave officer Zhang Qian traveled west as far as Central Asia and brought silk there. As years passed by, silk became so important that the trade road from Europe to China got its name—the Silk Road. The Silk Road became a busy highway for traders who carried things across deserts and mountains. ________ In return, they received treasures such as spices (香料), gold and silver from the West. At the very beginning, it was mainly about trade, then people began to share ideas, technologies and cultures. For example, Chinese inventions like paper-making were spread to the West, while new ideas about math and science came to China. Most importantly, the Silk Road helped different cultures learn from each other. Art, music and even language were shared along this ancient road. In places like the Dunhuang Grottoes (敦煌石窟) in China, you can see how art pieces combined (融合) Eastern and Western styles into something distinctive. It cannot be seen anywhere else. The story of the Silk Road tells us how people from faraway lands could become friends through trade and shared ideas. Today, we remember the Silk Road as one of the greatest examples of cooperation and exchange in history. It shows us how important it is to learn about and respect each other’s traditions, and that different cultures can work together to create amazing things. 1．The story of silk is mentioned in Paragraph 1 to show .

More than 2,000 years ago, Qin Shi Huang, the first emperor of China, ordered people to build the Terracotta Army. He hoped that the army would protect him after he died. In 1974, some farmers found several clay soldiers by accident in Xi’an. After that, about 8,000 more were found by archaeologists. Today, the clay soldiers in Xi’an’s terracotta museum are light brown. But they weren’t always this colour. When they were made, they had colours like white, green, blue, red, purple and yellow. Sadly, most of the colours have disappeared now. An area with more than a hundred clay soldiers was discovered by archaeologists a few years ago. Many of them still had black hair, pink faces and black or brown eyes when they were found. If they were not protected well, their colours would disappear, too. After a clay soldier was found, archaeologists used two steps to keep its colour. First, they sprayed (喷) a kind of special “water” on it. Then, they covered it with plastic. Archaeologists are facing a new challenge now. They are going to find a way to put the colours onto the clay soldiers. If they succeed in doing it, people will be able to see what the clay soldiers originally (最初) looked like. It must be very amazing. 1．Why did Qin Shi Huang order people to build the Terracotta Army? ____________________________________________________________________________________________2．When and where were the clay soldiers first found? ____________________________________________________________________________________________3．What colours did the clay soldiers have when they were first made? ____________________________________________________________________________________________4．How many steps did archaeologists take to protect the colours of the clay soldiers? ____________________________________________________________________________________________5．What is the new challenge for archaeologists now? ____________________________________________________________________________________________五、选词填空(本大题共10小题,每小题1分，共10分) 请从方框内选择适当的词，并根据需要用其正确形式填空，使文章语法正确、完整连贯。 avoid     care      fail       involve     luck     me    mistake   throw     train       weigh     who     wise Sometimes there’s nothing better than the“rush” you feel when you’re going at high speeds or the wonder of going somewhere new, climbing a mountain or enjoying exciting sports like snowboarding. Although such activities 1 great danger, some people live for them. But sometimes we also need to 2 know when to slow down. Recently I went quad biking, or ATV driving, on a track in the mountains. After a short 3 , we put on our helmets, started our engines and got onto the track. The sound of the engine was exciting. As I got more confident, I couldn’t help overtaking 4 was in front of me. Finally the way forward opened up and I went ahead of the others. I turned toward a small hill and raced down. Soon I realized this was a big 5 . My ATV turned over at full speed and I 6 a long way from my ATV. Luckily, I knew it was happening and pushed 7 out of the way of the falling ATV. If I had not, I probably would have broken my leg because of the 8 of the ATV, or I might have even broken my neck. It ended up turning out fine, just some soreness in my chest for a week or so. This came as a shock to my friend. After seeing the accident, he said to me, “Dude, I thought you were dead.” Perhaps I could have died, if I hadn’t been 9 that day. That event was one I’ll always remember for the adventure(冒险) and the near-death experience. It’s good to be adventurous, but it’s still important 10 unnecessary risks, too. So, go on adventures, but be smart while you’re on them. 六、书面表达(15分) 假定你是李华，你的英国网友Mary在网上发帖说，她每月有30英镑零花钱，但总是不到月底就花光了，她感到很苦恼。请你给她写一封信，给出合理的理财建议，并分享你的经验。 内容包括： (1) 表示理解并安慰她； (2) 给出至少两条具体建议 (如使用梦想罐、记账、先存后花等)； (3) 表达鼓励 (相信她能够合理支配零花钱)。 注意： (1) 不少于80词，开头和结尾已给出，不计入总词数； (2) 包含以上所有内容，可适当增加细节，以使行文连贯； (3) 文中不能出现真实的姓名、校名及地名等信息。 Dear Mary, I’m sorry to hear that you are having trouble managing your pocket money. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 试题 第7页（共8页） 试题 第8页（共8页） 试题 第5页（共8页） 试题 第6页（共8页） 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $听力考试正式开始。One, I use a piggy bank to save money.

B At an early age, we start learning how to manage money by watching our parents’ spending habits. Don’t worry if we haven’t learned well how to save or spend money. The following life lessons about money can help us form good spending habits. Money doesn’t grow on trees. As kids, we don’t often think about where money comes from. We need to know that our parents work hard to make money, and that it may be used up one day. Going to their workplaces to watch how they work is a great way to understand money is not that easy to make. We shouldn’t spend all our money in one go. It’s important for us to have a budget (预算) . In other words, we need to think about how much money we have and what we really want to spend it on. Realizing that our pocket money can’t cover everything we want, we should make smart spending choices. We should set a clear goal and watch our money grow. If we wish to own a new bicycle but can’t afford it, we can save our pocket money. How? Write down how much money we have in a notebook and watch it grow. After we have enough, we can buy that wonderful bicycle we’ve dreamed about! Reaching our goal will greatly satiate (满足) us. We can talk with our parents about how money is used and where money goes. Do you know what a bank account (账户) is? If not, communicate with our parents. We can also go to the supermarket with our parents to experience how money is spent in the real world. Without doubt (怀疑) . we should treat money in a right way. Actually, learning about money isn’t a hard job. From these lessons, we can get a sense of money management and right money values step by step! 1．What is the key to making smart spending choices? A．Buying everything we want B．Planning before spending. C．Asking for more pocket money. D．Working hard like our parents. 2．What does the writer want kids to do by giving the example of buying a bicycle? A．Buy a wonderful notebook. B．Make a free spending choice. C．Set a goal of saving money. D．Have an experience of shopping. 3．What can we learn from the text? A．Achieving a savings goal is satisfying. B．Bank accounts are unnecessary for kids. C．Going shopping alone is a good idea. D．Parents should control all money. 4．What is the best title for the text? A．Causes of Spending Money B．Ways of Managing Money C．Purposes of Treating Money D．Conditions of Saving Money 5．The structure (结构) of the text is ________. (①= para. 1    ②= para. 2    ③= para. 3…) A． B． C． D． C Long ago, in ancient China, there was a story about the invention of silk. People believed that silk was first invented by Leizu, the wife of the Yellow Emperor. Leizu learned how to make cocoons (蚕茧) into soft and strong cloth. This magical cloth became known as “silk”, and it was so valuable that it was called “China’s Gold”. Following kings’ orders, the Chinese kept the secret of making silk for centuries. But then, something amazing happened! During the Han Dynasty, the brave officer Zhang Qian traveled west as far as Central Asia and brought silk there. As years passed by, silk became so important that the trade road from Europe to China got its name—the Silk Road. The Silk Road became a busy highway for traders who carried things across deserts and mountains. ________ In return, they received treasures such as spices (香料), gold and silver from the West. At the very beginning, it was mainly about trade, then people began to share ideas, technologies and cultures. For example, Chinese inventions like paper-making were spread to the West, while new ideas about math and science came to China. Most importantly, the Silk Road helped different cultures learn from each other. Art, music and even language were shared along this ancient road. In places like the Dunhuang Grottoes (敦煌石窟) in China, you can see how art pieces combined (融合) Eastern and Western styles into something distinctive. It cannot be seen anywhere else. The story of the Silk Road tells us how people from faraway lands could become friends through trade and shared ideas. Today, we remember the Silk Road as one of the greatest examples of cooperation and exchange in history. It shows us how important it is to learn about and respect each other’s traditions, and that different cultures can work together to create amazing things. 1．The story of silk is mentioned in Paragraph 1 to show .

More than 2,000 years ago, Qin Shi Huang, the first emperor of China, ordered people to build the Terracotta Army. He hoped that the army would protect him after he died. In 1974, some farmers found several clay soldiers by accident in Xi’an. After that, about 8,000 more were found by archaeologists. Today, the clay soldiers in Xi’an’s terracotta museum are light brown. But they weren’t always this colour. When they were made, they had colours like white, green, blue, red, purple and yellow. Sadly, most of the colours have disappeared now. An area with more than a hundred clay soldiers was discovered by archaeologists a few years ago. Many of them still had black hair, pink faces and black or brown eyes when they were found. If they were not protected well, their colours would disappear, too. After a clay soldier was found, archaeologists used two steps to keep its colour. First, they sprayed (喷) a kind of special “water” on it. Then, they covered it with plastic. Archaeologists are facing a new challenge now. They are going to find a way to put the colours onto the clay soldiers. If they succeed in doing it, people will be able to see what the clay soldiers originally (最初) looked like. It must be very amazing. 1．Why did Qin Shi Huang order people to build the Terracotta Army? ____________________________________________________________________________________________2．When and where were the clay soldiers first found? ____________________________________________________________________________________________3．What colours did the clay soldiers have when they were first made? ____________________________________________________________________________________________4．How many steps did archaeologists take to protect the colours of the clay soldiers? ____________________________________________________________________________________________5．What is the new challenge for archaeologists now? ____________________________________________________________________________________________五、选词填空(本大题共10小题,每小题1分，共10分) 请从方框内选择适当的词，并根据需要用其正确形式填空，使文章语法正确、完整连贯。 avoid     care      fail       involve     luck     me    mistake   throw     train       weigh     who     wise Sometimes there’s nothing better than the“rush” you feel when you’re going at high speeds or the wonder of going somewhere new, climbing a mountain or enjoying exciting sports like snowboarding. Although such activities 1 great danger, some people live for them. But sometimes we also need to 2 know when to slow down. Recently I went quad biking, or ATV driving, on a track in the mountains. After a short 3 , we put on our helmets, started our engines and got onto the track. The sound of the engine was exciting. As I got more confident, I couldn’t help overtaking 4 was in front of me. Finally the way forward opened up and I went ahead of the others. I turned toward a small hill and raced down. Soon I realized this was a big 5 . My ATV turned over at full speed and I 6 a long way from my ATV. Luckily, I knew it was happening and pushed 7 out of the way of the falling ATV. If I had not, I probably would have broken my leg because of the 8 of the ATV, or I might have even broken my neck. It ended up turning out fine, just some soreness in my chest for a week or so. This came as a shock to my friend. After seeing the accident, he said to me, “Dude, I thought you were dead.” Perhaps I could have died, if I hadn’t been 9 that day.

So, go on adventures, but be smart while you’re on them. 六、书面表达(15分) 假定你是李华，你的英国网友Mary在网上发帖说，她每月有30英镑零花钱，但总是不到月底就花光了，她感到很苦恼。请你给她写一封信，给出合理的理财建议，并分享你的经验。 内容包括： (1) 表示理解并安慰她； (2) 给出至少两条具体建议 (如使用梦想罐、记账、先存后花等)； (3) 表达鼓励 (相信她能够合理支配零花钱)。 注意： (1) 不少于80词，开头和结尾已给出，不计入总词数； (2) 包含以上所有内容，可适当增加细节，以使行文连贯； (3) 文中不能出现真实的姓名、校名及地名等信息。 Dear Mary, I’m sorry to hear that you are having trouble managing your pocket money. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 试卷第6页，共7页 1 / 11 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
