Chinese people celebrate the Dragon Boat Festival on the fifth day of the fifth month of the lunar year. It’s     21     traditional festival with a history of over 2,000 years. It’s in     22     (connect) with a great Chinese poet who loved his state deeply—Qu Yuan.

Qu Yuan lived in the State of Chu during the Warring States Period.

It is Saturday afternoon in a small town near Xi’an. Wang Weifang and his friends are putting on a play. The audience (观众) can h    31     them, but they cannot see them. This is b    32     they are behind a screen — they are performing a shadow puppet (皮影) play, an art form on UNESCO’s Intangible Cultural Heritage list.

The oldest shadow puppet plays in China date back over 1,000 years. In shadow puppet plays, light and shadows are u    33     to tell a story on a screen. This art form is probably one of the earliest forms of moving images. It has had a huge influence on modern film-making and animation. However, this ancient folk art is at risk of d    34     out, so local artists are trying to save it.

Shadow puppets were first made of paper. Later, people used leather (皮革) to make them. That is why they are c    35     piying in Chinese. One of the advantages of using leather is that the puppets last for a long time. The leather is cut in the shape of people, animals or objects. Each puppet is painted in different c    36     and put on a stick. Some puppets have movable parts like arms and legs, or even fingers and eyes.

During the shadow puppet play, Wang and his friends stand behind a white screen. The audience sits in front of the screen. The screen is lit up, and the puppeteers hold the puppets close to it so the audience can see the

puppets’ shadows clearly. They then move the puppets around and do the v    37     of the different characters. The puppet characters talk and move around the screen, just like in an animated film. The audience can’t take their eyes off the puppets, and they hold their breath at e    38     moments.

These days, people seldom attend shadow puppet plays. However, n    39     Wang nor his friends are prepared to let this traditional folk art die out. When they perform ancient plays, they add in some n    40     elements (要素). To the joy of their audience, the puppets can even perform modern dance moves!

 

请认真阅读下面短文，在答题卡标有题号的横线上，填入一个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。

When I was a teenager, my parents were never interested in the music I liked. They said to me, "David, the music you listen to is a lot of noise." As it turns out, they are not alone. As I grow older, I've often heard my peers say, "    41     (today) music is terrible." Many older people loved pop music when they were young.     42     why do they dislike new music now?

The mere exposure effect (曝光效应) may explain this. It means the more familiar we are with something, the more     43     (like) we are to love it. When we are in our early     44     (teen), we usually spend a lot of time listening to popular music. The new songs and artists during this time become familiar to us. After we turn 30 years old, we are busy     45     (raise) our families. We don't have as much time to look for new music. Instead, we prefer to listen to our old favorites. According to studies, by the time they turn 33 years old, most people     46     (stop) exploring new music completely.

But I think there is another reason for older people's dislike of new music. Most popular music, after all, is not for them. It     47     (write) for young people. Some types of music began as a fight by young people     48     out-of-date ways of doing things. These types include rap, hip-hop, heavy metal and more. They     49     (nature) attract younger listeners.

Do your parents hate the music you like, too? Now, after reading this article, you know why your parents have     50     different taste in music.

GIY stands for “grow it yourself” and is about a new fashion for growing your own food. There are a lot of reasons why growing your own food is     51     good idea. GIY helps reduce carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions (排放物). Food in supermarkets travels a long way and that     52     (produce) a lot of CO2.
