Last term, I took hip-hop dance classes and looked forward to going every day. This term, I decided to try ballet. But when I heard my new teacher, Ms Taylor, was very strict, I felt 13 . In our first class, Ms Taylor ran us through some basic ballet steps. She seemed to think we already knew some ballet. “Grand plié,” instructed Ms Taylor. Along with my classmates, I began mine. “Class, I would like everyone to watch this girl do a grand plié.” The teacher pointed at me. My heart was racing. I 14 got into position and then performed a grand plié. Complete silence. All eyes were on me. “Now, class, this is a perfect example of what not to do,” Ms Taylor said. She raised her voice, stressing the word “not”. Red face. Eyes watering. A wave of 15 came over me. I spent the rest of the day wondering if I should give up. But my 16 wouldn’t allow it. As I lay in bed that night, I knew I was going back. I could do it. I kept practising day by day, week by week. Soon it was time for a show at our theater. Everyone could choose their favorite dance style to perform. I thought Ms Taylor was shocked that I chose to be in her ballet piece, but something inside me wanted to 17 I was good enough. Our performance turned out to be a huge success. Though I was not the best ballet dancer out there, I had the best time dancing on stage and put all my 18 into it, winning loud cheers. On the last day of this term, Ms Taylor said she had an announcement (通知) to make. “At the end of the term, I always like to award one student the Ballerina. This time, the award goes to Claire Foster. She had no ballet experience. However, she has shown such great 19 , and I am truly proud of her.” In shock, I looked up towards Ms Taylor, who was smiling at me. I couldn’t believe my ears. As I walked to the front to receive the award, a bit teary-eyed, I smiled back and said, “Thank you for 20 me from the first class. Your strictness pushed me to become a better dancer.” 13．A．bored B．hurt C．nervous D．helpless 14．A．skillfully B．carefully C．cheerfully D．easily 15．A．loneliness B．shyness C．fear D．shame 16．A．confidence B．honesty C．pride D．bravery 17．A．accept B．remember C．find D．prove 18．A．time B．heart C．interest D．patience 19．A．value B．talent C．responsibility D．improvement 20．A．challenging B．encouraging C．protecting D．supporting 三、阅读理解。(本大题共13小题，每小题2分，共26分) A 21 . Ben plans to sing a song at the school leavers’ party to show his best wishes to all his classmates. He expects all his friends to slow down to enjoy beautiful moments in life. 22 . Linda is an exchange student from America. She has lived in China for two years. She misses her family and her friends a lot. 23 . Mike is having difficulty in learning physics. Sometimes, he even wants to give up. What he needs is something full of courage to cheer himself up. A．Take Me Home, Country Roads brings people back to the beauty of their hometown, family, friends as well as the happy old times, whenever it is sung. B．On My Way is a song centering around courage. The message of the song is about never losing hope and never giving up, even when the journey seems difficult. C． Valder Fields is a folk song popular worldwide. The melody is slow, just like the singer chatting with you. Its relaxing and warm music might remind you of the wind of spring and make you joyful and relaxed. D．Ferrari is a single by US singer and songwriter Bebe Rexha. It tells people to slow down in the fast world and try to enjoy life. B The Silent Language of Paper Li Wei planned to hang out with friends during the summer vacation. However, his parents told him to spend every afternoon with his grandmother learning paper-cutting. This made him upset. “It’s an old-fashioned craft (手工艺). What’s the point?” he said angrily. But his father insisted, “Grandmother’s skills are a treasure. This is important.” The first few days were really frustrating (令人沮丧的). No matter how hard Li Wei tried, he couldn’t control his fingers properly. His cuts were messy, nothing like grandmother’s, which were always sharp and formed beautiful designs of flowers and animals. He found it a boring task. One afternoon, grandmother didn’t bring any pattern (图案). Instead, she placed a blank red paper in front of him. “Today,” she said softly, “cut out what is in your heart.” Li Wei was confused. He thought for a moment, then decided to cut out a simple basketball—the symbol of his favourite sport. To his surprise, grandmother smiled warmly. “Good! You see, paper-cutting is not just about copying old patterns. It’s a language. Our ancestors (祖先) used it to tell their stories. Now, you are telling yours.” Li Wei felt a sudden excitement. It wasn’t about being perfect at an old art; it was about adding his own voice to it. He practiced with new interest. He started creating designs that mixed traditional symbols with things from his own life—a panda with a basketball and the school building next to a lucky character “Fu”. When his class had an international culture fair, Li Wei didn’t just display grandmother’s perfect traditional cuts. He proudly showed his own modern creations. He explained to his curious classmates, and even to the visiting exchange students, how this art was evolving (演变). He was no longer just a learner; he felt like a keeper of the tradition. Li Wei finally understood his father’s words. The real treasure wasn’t just the paper-cuts themselves, but the silent language they carried—a language that he could now speak, and more importantly, one he could help write for the future. 24．How did Li Wei feel about learning paper-cutting at first? A．Surprised. B．Proud. C．Curious. D．Upset. 25．What made Li Wei practice paper-cutting with new interest? A．Watching grandmother make paper-cuts. B．Attending the international culture fair. C．Creating designs to express himself. D．Copying the old perfect patterns. 26．What did Li Wei finally realize? A．Traditional art stays alive with new ideas. B．Traditional art should remain unchanged. C．Learning traditional art skills is very hard. D．Paper-cutting is a symbol of traditional art. C If music makes you smarter and exercise helps you to think, surely exercising to music can turn you into a clever person. A team of scientists from Ohio State University did experiments on 33 volunteers who were getting better from heart disease after operations. They found those volunteers who exercised while listening to Italian musician Antonio Vivaldi’s The Four Seasons did much better on language ability tests than without music. It is also used in medical fields for patients who have had head hurts because of its moderate tempo (适中的节奏). “Exercise seems to cause positive changes in the nerve (神经) system and these changes may improve the learning ability of people with heart disease,” said the psychologist Charles Emery, who led the study. “And listening to music is thought to enhance understanding. We just wanted to put the two results together,” he added. The volunteers said they felt better emotionally and physically after exercising with or without music. But their improvement on the test doubled after listening to music during exercise. Scientists have proved that music can be good for health and education. It helps reduce stress and sadness, encourage relaxation or sleep, wake up the body and improve memory and thoughts. Scientists have been studying the results of exercise to music on learning and understanding since the early 1950s. A study showed that students who listened to Mozart’s violin-pieces and exercised went on to get higher marks in an IQ test. With important exams drawing near, your parents will not probably allow you to listen to music or play sports. But perhaps now you have good reasons to argue with them. 27．What does the underlined word enhance mean? A．Produce B．provide C．improve D．impress 28．From the last paragraph we can learn that ________. A．you should follow your parents’ words B．you have some good reasons to join in an IQ test C．good marks depend on listening to music and exercising D．exercise to music might help you get higher grades in tests 29．Which of the following statements is true? A．Music helps volunteers get better from heart disease. B．Exercise is used for people with head hurts. C．Exercise causes no changes in health without music. D．Music can help you relax and feel energetic. D In a modern economy focused on efficiency, growth and digital convenience, the act of knitting a scarf, woodcarving or mending a torn shirt seems like something old-fashioned. This view is shortsighted. Taking part in handwork is a necessary practice that restores cognitive (认知) balance, builds personal resilience (适应力), and keeps a human-centered spirit in the digital world. We should actively seek to learn and practice “useless” hand skills because their value cannot be measured on a spreadsheet. The first and most personal argument is neurobiological (神经生物学的). Handwork creates a unique cognitive state often described as “flow” or “the zone”, but with an important physical element. The movements of handwork activate the brain’s motor cortex and sensory systems and require lasting, active focus and fine motor control. This balanced mind-hand activity pulls people away from the digital world, grounding them in controllable reality. Unlike digital materials, the physical work brings a strong sense of achievement. Handwork also pushes back against a throwaway, consumer-driven culture that leads to passive helplessness. In an age where people replace broken items instead of repairing them, learning basic hand skills is a small act of resistance to waste. It rebuilds practical ability — the confidence that comes from being able to control your physical environment to solve a problem, shifting people from passive consumers to active creators. On a community and cultural level, handwork carries intergenerational knowledge and builds noncommercial connection. Elderly people teach traditional hand skills to young kids, passing down life experience from one generation to another. Groups such as knitting circles break down social barriers in ways digital communication never can. Handmade items, often given as gifts, hold deep emotional and relational value, preserving real, heartfelt cultural bonds (纽带). Moreover, handwork develops patient, iterative thinking that is fading (逐渐消失) in the quick-fix digital world. It requires trying again and again and making small changes to get better. Unlike screen tasks with easy undo buttons, handwork teaches planning and patience. It also teaches us to see “mistakes” as a lesson in resilience and problem-solving that applies far beyond the workshop. Efficiency is not the only measure of a meaningful life. In an increasingly automated, virtual society, handwork is a form of cognitive and spiritual care. It brings back our connection to the physical world, builds practical strength and reminds us we are creators, not just consumers. These “useless” hand skills are, in truth, necessary and important to preserving our humanity. 30．Which one can show the cultural value of handwork? A．It turns passive users into creative makers. B．It makes wisdom flow between different ages. C．It helps people improve practical working skills. D．It gives people a chance to keep the brain active. 31．What does the underlined word “iterative” in Paragraph 5 most probably mean? A．Progressive. B．Creative. C．Active. D．Positive. 32．What can we learn from the passage? A．Handwork improves people’s mental health. B．Handwork keeps people away from digital pleasure. C．Handwork enables people to reconnect with real life. D．Handwork provides people with great material wealth. 33．What is the writer’s main purpose in writing this passage? A．To encourage people to become active creators. B．To call on the public to protect traditional culture. C．To stress the value of hand skills in modern society. D．To show handwork’s influence on personal development. 四、阅读与表达。(本大题共4小题，34-36每题2分，37题4分，共10分) 阅读短文，根据短文内容回答问题。 As the world marks the 80th anniversary of the victory over fascism (反法西斯), a moving Chinese film, Dead To Rights, gives us a special look at history. The film does not show big war scenes. Instead, it uses the photo studio to show how ordinary people wake up and fight back in difficult times of history. In the fallen city, among those who find safety in Jixiang Photo Studio is a postman called Su Liuchang, played by Liu Haoran. He was ordered to develop films for Japanese soldiers. He accidentally finds photos that show their cruel crimes. They risked their lives to keep these photos and show them to the world. Dead To Rights turns out to be a huge success. All the actors and actresses are strictly chosen and they all play their roles very well. Besides, a lot of preparation has been made before shooting the movie, such as technical work, realistic sets, background music and historical facts. However, there is something more. When the studio owner Lao Jin shouts, “Every inch of our beautiful land must never be given up,” or when modern Nanjing streets are intercut (穿插) with wartime ruins, viewers feel deeply what our forefathers (先辈) have done to protect truth and dignity. “While watching the movie, I see not just history coming to life like a photo, but a symbol of a strong, unbroken spirit of our nation,” a 24-year-old university student from Nanjing says. Dead To Rights is a serious look back and a deep thought on history. So far, many similar movies have been brought to the screen. They all have something in common, reminding us to remember the past and cherish today’s peace. 34．Does the movie Dead To Rights tell a story by showing big war scenes? 35．What does Su Liuchang find while developing films for Japanese soldiers? 36．Why is Dead To Rights so successful according to the passage? 37．What do you think of the film? Why? 五、书面表达。(本大题共10分) 38．中华民族有五千年的文明，积淀了丰富多彩的传统文化，有精美的民间工艺如剪纸、风筝，有古老的民族艺术如京剧、国画等。 假设你是李华，你们学校英语社团正在进行“中国传统文化”为主题的征文活动。请你用英语写一篇短文投稿，谈谈你最喜爱的一种中国传统民间工艺或民族艺术以及你是如何传承的。 提示词语：paper cutting, practice, make videos, introduce, foreigner 提示问题：● What traditional Chinese culture do you like best? ● What can you do to pass it on? ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 试题 第3页（共8页） 试题 第4页（共8页） 试题 第1页（共8页） 试题 第2页（共8页） 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 2026-2027学年九年级下册英语单元自测·北京专用 Unit 3 A Taste of Art 学校:___________班级：___________姓名：___________分数：___________ （时间：90分钟，满分：60分） 一、单项选择。(本大题共12小题，每小题0.5分，共6分) 1．My mother loves animals. ________ often volunteers at the animal hospital.

Last term, I took hip-hop dance classes and looked forward to going every day. This term, I decided to try ballet. But when I heard my new teacher, Ms Taylor, was very strict, I felt 13 . In our first class, Ms Taylor ran us through some basic ballet steps. She seemed to think we already knew some ballet. “Grand plié,” instructed Ms Taylor. Along with my classmates, I began mine. “Class, I would like everyone to watch this girl do a grand plié.” The teacher pointed at me. My heart was racing. I 14 got into position and then performed a grand plié. Complete silence. All eyes were on me. “Now, class, this is a perfect example of what not to do,” Ms Taylor said. She raised her voice, stressing the word “not”. Red face. Eyes watering. A wave of 15 came over me. I spent the rest of the day wondering if I should give up. But my 16 wouldn’t allow it. As I lay in bed that night, I knew I was going back. I could do it. I kept practising day by day, week by week. Soon it was time for a show at our theater. Everyone could choose their favorite dance style to perform. I thought Ms Taylor was shocked that I chose to be in her ballet piece, but something inside me wanted to 17 I was good enough. Our performance turned out to be a huge success. Though I was not the best ballet dancer out there, I had the best time dancing on stage and put all my 18 into it, winning loud cheers. On the last day of this term, Ms Taylor said she had an announcement (通知) to make. “At the end of the term, I always like to award one student the Ballerina. This time, the award goes to Claire Foster. She had no ballet experience. However, she has shown such great 19 , and I am truly proud of her.” In shock, I looked up towards Ms Taylor, who was smiling at me. I couldn’t believe my ears. As I walked to the front to receive the award, a bit teary-eyed, I smiled back and said, “Thank you for 20 me from the first class. Your strictness pushed me to become a better dancer.” 13．A．bored B．hurt C．nervous D．helpless 14．A．skillfully B．carefully C．cheerfully D．easily 15．A．loneliness B．shyness C．fear D．shame 16．A．confidence B．honesty C．pride D．bravery 17．A．accept B．remember C．find D．prove 18．A．time B．heart C．interest D．patience 19．A．value B．talent C．responsibility D．improvement 20．A．challenging B．encouraging C．protecting D．supporting 【答案】13．C 14．B 15．D 16．C 17．D 18．B 19．D 20．A 【导语】本文讲述了作者在芭蕾舞课上因动作不标准被严厉的老师当众批评，但作者没有放弃，坚持练习，最终在期末表演中大获成功并获奖的故事。 【详解】13．句意：但是当我听说我的新老师Taylor女士非常严厉时，我感到紧张。 根据“Ms Taylor, was very strict”可知，听说老师很严厉，自然会感到紧张（nervous）。 14．句意：我小心翼翼地摆好姿势，然后做了一个大深蹲。 根据“My heart was racing.”可知作者当时心跳加速，非常紧张，所以是小心翼翼地（carefully）摆好姿势。 15．句意：脸红了。眼泪汪汪。一阵羞愧感涌上心头。 根据前文老师当众说作者是反面教材，以及“Red face. Eyes watering.”可知，作者当众出丑，感到非常羞愧（shame）。 16．句意：但是我的自尊心不允许我这样做。 根据“wondering if I should give up”和“I knew I was going back. I could do it.”可知，作者想过放弃，但内心的自尊心（pride）不允许自己半途而废。 17．句意：但我内心深处想要证明我足够优秀。 根据前后文逻辑，作者被当众批评后坚持练习，是为了向老师证明（prove）自己足够好。 18．句意：虽然我不是那里最好的芭蕾舞者，但我在舞台上度过了最美好的时光，并全身心投入其中，赢得了大声的欢呼。 上文提到表演取得了巨大成功，虽然没有成为最好的舞者，但作者享受了整个过程。固定搭配“put one’s heart into”意为“全身心投入”，与“the best time dancing on stage”呼应。heart符合语境。 19．句意：然而，她展现出了如此巨大的进步，我真的为她感到骄傲。 根据“She had no ballet experience.”和最终获奖可知，作者从零基础到表演大获成功，展现了巨大的进步（improvement）。 20．句意：谢谢您从第一节课起就挑战我。 根据“Your strictness pushed me to become a better dancer.”可知，老师第一节课的严厉批评对作者来说是一种挑战，促使她变得更好。challenging符合语境。 三、阅读理解。(本大题共13小题，每小题2分，共26分) A 21 .

However, his parents told him to spend every afternoon with his grandmother learning paper-cutting. This made him upset. “It’s an old-fashioned craft (手工艺). What’s the point?” he said angrily. But his father insisted, “Grandmother’s skills are a treasure. This is important.” The first few days were really frustrating (令人沮丧的). No matter how hard Li Wei tried, he couldn’t control his fingers properly. His cuts were messy, nothing like grandmother’s, which were always sharp and formed beautiful designs of flowers and animals. He found it a boring task. One afternoon, grandmother didn’t bring any pattern (图案). Instead, she placed a blank red paper in front of him. “Today,” she said softly, “cut out what is in your heart.” Li Wei was confused. He thought for a moment, then decided to cut out a simple basketball—the symbol of his favourite sport. To his surprise, grandmother smiled warmly. “Good! You see, paper-cutting is not just about copying old patterns. It’s a language. Our ancestors (祖先) used it to tell their stories. Now, you are telling yours.” Li Wei felt a sudden excitement. It wasn’t about being perfect at an old art; it was about adding his own voice to it. He practiced with new interest. He started creating designs that mixed traditional symbols with things from his own life—a panda with a basketball and the school building next to a lucky character “Fu”. When his class had an international culture fair, Li Wei didn’t just display grandmother’s perfect traditional cuts. He proudly showed his own modern creations. He explained to his curious classmates, and even to the visiting exchange students, how this art was evolving (演变). He was no longer just a learner; he felt like a keeper of the tradition. Li Wei finally understood his father’s words. The real treasure wasn’t just the paper-cuts themselves, but the silent language they carried—a language that he could now speak, and more importantly, one he could help write for the future. 24．How did Li Wei feel about learning paper-cutting at first? A．Surprised. B．Proud. C．Curious. D．Upset. 25．What made Li Wei practice paper-cutting with new interest? A．Watching grandmother make paper-cuts. B．Attending the international culture fair. C．Creating designs to express himself. D．Copying the old perfect patterns. 26．What did Li Wei finally realize? A．Traditional art stays alive with new ideas. B．Traditional art should remain unchanged. C．Learning traditional art skills is very hard. D．Paper-cutting is a symbol of traditional art. 【答案】24．D 25．C 26．A 【导语】本文主要讲述了李伟对剪纸艺术的态度转变，由不感兴趣到热爱，最后为剪纸艺术发声。 【详解】24．细节理解题。根据文中“However, his parents told him to spend every afternoon with his grandmother learning paper-cutting. This made him upset.”可知，李伟最初对学习剪纸感到很不高兴，故选D。 25．细节理解题。根据文中第四段以及“It wasn’t about being perfect at an old art; it was about adding his own voice to it. He practiced with new interest.”可知，祖母让李伟“剪出心中所想”，他创作篮球图案后感到兴奋，并开始混合传统与现代元素（如熊猫打篮球），由此产生新兴趣。故选C。 26．推理判断题。根据文中“The real treasure wasn’t just the paper-cuts themselves, but the silent language they carried—a language that he could now speak, and more importantly, one he could help write for the future.”可知，李伟最终意识到了传统艺术因新思想而焕发活力，故选A。 C If music makes you smarter and exercise helps you to think, surely exercising to music can turn you into a clever person. A team of scientists from Ohio State University did experiments on 33 volunteers who were getting better from heart disease after operations. They found those volunteers who exercised while listening to Italian musician Antonio Vivaldi’s The Four Seasons did much better on language ability tests than without music. It is also used in medical fields for patients who have had head hurts because of its moderate tempo (适中的节奏). “Exercise seems to cause positive changes in the nerve (神经) system and these changes may improve the learning ability of people with heart disease,” said the psychologist Charles Emery, who led the study. “And listening to music is thought to enhance understanding. We just wanted to put the two results together,” he added. The volunteers said they felt better emotionally and physically after exercising with or without music. But their improvement on the test doubled after listening to music during exercise. Scientists have proved that music can be good for health and education. It helps reduce stress and sadness, encourage relaxation or sleep, wake up the body and improve memory and thoughts. Scientists have been studying the results of exercise to music on learning and understanding since the early 1950s. A study showed that students who listened to Mozart’s violin-pieces and exercised went on to get higher marks in an IQ test. With important exams drawing near, your parents will not probably allow you to listen to music or play sports. But perhaps now you have good reasons to argue with them. 27．What does the underlined word enhance mean? A．Produce B．provide C．improve D．impress 28．From the last paragraph we can learn that ________. A．you should follow your parents’ words B．you have some good reasons to join in an IQ test C．good marks depend on listening to music and exercising D．exercise to music might help you get higher grades in tests 29．Which of the following statements is true? A．Music helps volunteers get better from heart disease. B．Exercise is used for people with head hurts. C．Exercise causes no changes in health without music. D．Music can help you relax and feel energetic. 【答案】27．C 28．D 29．D 【导语】本文主要介绍了俄亥俄州立大学实验发现，边锻炼边听舒缓音乐能显著提升心脏病患者的语言测试成绩。音乐结合运动可改善神经系统、增强学习能力，对健康和教育均有积极影响，甚至可能提高智商测试分数。 【详解】27．词句猜测题。根据第三段“Exercise seems to cause positive changes in the nerve system and these changes may improve the learning ability of people with heart disease”及划线部分所在的并列句“And listening to music is thought to enhance understanding”可知，前句指出了运动对神经系统的积极变化，与划线部分所在句为并列句，则划线部分也应是对理解力的积极影响，再结合选项及最后一段“A study showed that students who listened to Mozart’s violin-pieces and exercised went on to get higher marks in an IQ test.”可知，提到听莫扎特音乐并运动的学生在智商测试中得分更高，此处应在进一步说明听音乐被认为可以“提高”理解力。故选C。 28．段落大意题。根据最后一段“Scientists have been studying the results of exercise to music on learning and understanding since the early 1950s. A study showed that students who listened to Mozart’s violin-pieces and exercised went on to get higher marks in an IQ test.”可知，此处提到听莫扎特音乐并运动的学生在智商测试中得分更高，暗示其对学业成绩的潜在帮助，选项D“边听音乐边锻炼可以帮助你在考试中取得更高的成绩”与之相符。故选D。 29．细节理解题。根据倒数第二段“Scientists have proved that music can be good for health and education. It helps reduce stress and sadness, encourage relaxation or sleep, wake up the body and improve memory and thoughts.”可知，科学家已经证明音乐有益于健康和教育。它有助于减轻压力和悲伤，鼓励放松或睡眠，唤醒身体，提高记忆力和思维，选项D“音乐可以帮助你放松，感觉精力充沛”与之相符。故选D。 D In a modern economy focused on efficiency, growth and digital convenience, the act of knitting a scarf, woodcarving or mending a torn shirt seems like something old-fashioned. This view is shortsighted. Taking part in handwork is a necessary practice that restores cognitive (认知) balance, builds personal resilience (适应力), and keeps a human-centered spirit in the digital world. We should actively seek to learn and practice “useless” hand skills because their value cannot be measured on a spreadsheet. The first and most personal argument is neurobiological (神经生物学的). Handwork creates a unique cognitive state often described as “flow” or “the zone”, but with an important physical element. The movements of handwork activate the brain’s motor cortex and sensory systems and require lasting, active focus and fine motor control. This balanced mind-hand activity pulls people away from the digital world, grounding them in controllable reality. Unlike digital materials, the physical work brings a strong sense of achievement. Handwork also pushes back against a throwaway, consumer-driven culture that leads to passive helplessness. In an age where people replace broken items instead of repairing them, learning basic hand skills is a small act of resistance to waste. It rebuilds practical ability — the confidence that comes from being able to control your physical environment to solve a problem, shifting people from passive consumers to active creators. On a community and cultural level, handwork carries intergenerational knowledge and builds noncommercial connection. Elderly people teach traditional hand skills to young kids, passing down life experience from one generation to another. Groups such as knitting circles break down social barriers in ways digital communication never can. Handmade items, often given as gifts, hold deep emotional and relational value, preserving real, heartfelt cultural bonds (纽带). Moreover, handwork develops patient, iterative thinking that is fading (逐渐消失) in the quick-fix digital world. It requires trying again and again and making small changes to get better. Unlike screen tasks with easy undo buttons, handwork teaches planning and patience. It also teaches us to see “mistakes” as a lesson in resilience and problem-solving that applies far beyond the workshop. Efficiency is not the only measure of a meaningful life. In an increasingly automated, virtual society, handwork is a form of cognitive and spiritual care. It brings back our connection to the physical world, builds practical strength and reminds us we are creators, not just consumers. These “useless” hand skills are, in truth, necessary and important to preserving our humanity. 30．Which one can show the cultural value of handwork? A．It turns passive users into creative makers. B．It makes wisdom flow between different ages. C．It helps people improve practical working skills. D．It gives people a chance to keep the brain active. 31．What does the underlined word “iterative” in Paragraph 5 most probably mean? A．Progressive. B．Creative. C．Active. D．Positive. 32．What can we learn from the passage? A．Handwork improves people’s mental health. B．Handwork keeps people away from digital pleasure. C．Handwork enables people to reconnect with real life. D．Handwork provides people with great material wealth. 33．What is the writer’s main purpose in writing this passage? A．To encourage people to become active creators. B．To call on the public to protect traditional culture. C．To stress the value of hand skills in modern society. D．To show handwork’s influence on personal development. 【答案】30．B 31．A 32．C 33．C 【导语】本文主要讲述了看似过时的手工技艺在数字化现代社会极具价值，它有益身心、转变消费观念、传承文化、锤炼思维，是守护人性、联结现实的重要方式。 【详解】30．根据第四段“On a community and cultural level, handwork carries intergenerational knowledge and builds noncommercial connection. Elderly people teach traditional hand skills to young kids, passing down life experience from one generation to another.”可知，此处提到手工技艺承载代际知识，老人向孩子传授技艺、传递人生经验，对应“智慧在不同年龄层流转”。 31．根据第五段“Moreover, handwork develops patient, iterative thinking that is fading (逐渐消失) in the quick-fix digital world. It requires trying again and again and making small changes to get better.”可知，手工需要反复尝试、不断微调来精进技艺。iterative意为“反复的、循序渐进的”。 32．根据第二段“This balanced mind-hand activity pulls people away from the digital world, grounding them in controllable reality.”和最后一段“It brings back our connection to the physical world, builds practical strength and reminds us we are creators, not just consumers.”可知，手工让人重新联结现实生活。 33．本文开篇反驳“手工过时”的看法，随后从身心、消费、文化、思维四大角度，全方位论述手工在现代社会的多重价值，结尾再次升华观点，选项C符合。 四、阅读与表达。(本大题共4小题，34-36每题2分，37题4分，共10分) 阅读短文，根据短文内容回答问题。 As the world marks the 80th anniversary of the victory over fascism (反法西斯), a moving Chinese film, Dead To Rights, gives us a special look at history. The film does not show big war scenes. Instead, it uses the photo studio to show how ordinary people wake up and fight back in difficult times of history. In the fallen city, among those who find safety in Jixiang Photo Studio is a postman called Su Liuchang, played by Liu Haoran. He was ordered to develop films for Japanese soldiers. He accidentally finds photos that show their cruel crimes. They risked their lives to keep these photos and show them to the world. Dead To Rights turns out to be a huge success. All the actors and actresses are strictly chosen and they all play their roles very well. Besides, a lot of preparation has been made before shooting the movie, such as technical work, realistic sets, background music and historical facts. However, there is something more. When the studio owner Lao Jin shouts, “Every inch of our beautiful land must never be given up,” or when modern Nanjing streets are intercut (穿插) with wartime ruins, viewers feel deeply what our forefathers (先辈) have done to protect truth and dignity. “While watching the movie, I see not just history coming to life like a photo, but a symbol of a strong, unbroken spirit of our nation,” a 24-year-old university student from Nanjing says.
