Along the River During the Qingming Festival is one of China’s most famous traditional paintings. It was created by Zhang Zeduan, a talented artist from the Song Dynasty. Unlike typical landscape paintings that focus on mountains and rivers, this artwork shows the daily life of ordinary people. The scroll (卷轴) is like a “video” of ancient times. It shows a bustling (喧闹的) scene of Bianjing, the capital city at that time. From farmers selling vegetables to businessmen trading goods, the painting perfectly captures the social life of the Northern Song Dynasty. One of the most interesting details is the “ancient delivery man.” Near a hotel called “Shiqian Jiaodian”, a man wearing an apron (围裙) is rushing down the street. He’s holding two bowls of rice in one hand and chopsticks in the other. It’s believed to be China’s earliest image of a “food delivery guy.” The food service industry was already highly developed in the Song Dynasty! Another highlight is the arch (拱形的) bridge. Under it, a large boat is struggling to pass through. The people on the boat are shouting, while the boatmen on the shore are waving to guide them. The moments make the painting look alive—as if we’re watching real life from over 900 years ago. Besides, the painting also hides clever business ideas. Near the hotel, “Shiqian Jiaodian”, a lantern box with candles inside hangs at the door—like a Northern Song “neon sign” (霓虹灯)—to attract customers at night. Also, some teahouses even wrote dish names on their walls, creating the world’s earliest “menu” to help guests order easily. These show how lively and creative daily life was in Bianjing. Today, the original painting is kept in the Palace Museum in Beijing. It’s not just a piece of art; it’s also a valuable historical document (文献) that helps us learn about the life and culture of ancient China. 26．What is special about Along the River During the Qingming Festival compared with typical landscape paintings?

If you travel around China, you’ll find images of dragons almost everywhere, especially in ancient palaces and temples. Some of them are more than 3,500 years old. Countless Chinese artists have tried their hand at painting the dragon. One of them was Chen Rong, a great painter in the Southern Song Dynasty. He is widely considered the best of the dragon painters. His Nine Dragons has been praised as one of the greatest paintings of the Chinese dragon. Chen was born in Fujian in 1200. He once served as the mayor (太守) of Putian in his home province. He also worked for the government in Hangzhou at one point. His political career wasn’t very successful. However, he was widely respected for his talent in poetry, calligraphy and painting. According to historical records, Chen usually painted after drinking a lot of wine. After getting drunk, he would shout, tear off his scarf, dip it in ink and spill the ink madly on xuanzhi. After that, the painter would use brushes to paint some details to finish his work. Chen’s inscription(题词) on Nine Dragons shows that he created it when he was completely drunk. Nine Dragons shows nine energetic dragons rolling, swimming and dancing among clouds, mist, waves, fires and cliffs. There are both crazy drops of ink and very fine lines. They show both the painter’s feeling of great disappointment with his life and his great skills with the brush. Nine Dragons was once treasured at court. Many inscriptions by the Qianlong Emperor praised it highly. It’s said that the emperor liked the painting so much that he ordered a court painter to make a copy of it. 46．In which dynasty was Chen Rong born? 47．According to the article, what was Chen widely respected for? 48．What was special about Chen Rong when he created Nine Dragons? 49．What did the Qianlong Emperor think of Nine Dragons? 50．Would you like to go to see Nine Dragons with your own eyes?

If you travel around China, you’ll find images of dragons almost everywhere, especially in ancient palaces and temples. Some of them are more than 3,500 years old. Countless Chinese artists have tried their hand at painting the dragon. One of them was Chen Rong, a great painter in the Southern Song Dynasty. He is widely considered the best of the dragon painters. His Nine Dragons has been praised as one of the greatest paintings of the Chinese dragon. Chen was born in Fujian in 1200. He once served as the mayor (太守) of Putian in his home province. He also worked for the government in Hangzhou at one point. His political career wasn’t very successful. However, he was widely respected for his talent in poetry, calligraphy and painting. According to historical records, Chen usually painted after drinking a lot of wine. After getting drunk, he would shout, tear off his scarf, dip it in ink and spill the ink madly on xuanzhi. After that, the painter would use brushes to paint some details to finish his work. Chen’s inscription(题词) on Nine Dragons shows that he created it when he was completely drunk. Nine Dragons shows nine energetic dragons rolling, swimming and dancing among clouds, mist, waves, fires and cliffs. There are both crazy drops of ink and very fine lines. They show both the painter’s feeling of great disappointment with his life and his great skills with the brush. Nine Dragons was once treasured at court. Many inscriptions by the Qianlong Emperor praised it highly. It’s said that the emperor liked the painting so much that he ordered a court painter to make a copy of it. 46．In which dynasty was Chen Rong born? 47．According to the article, what was Chen widely respected for? 48．What was special about Chen Rong when he created Nine Dragons? 49．What did the Qianlong Emperor think of Nine Dragons? 50．Would you like to go to see Nine Dragons with your own eyes? Why or why not? 【答案】46．He was born in the Southern Song Dynasty. 47．He was widely respected for his talent in poetry, calligraphy and painting. 48．He created it when he was completely drunk. 49．He liked it very much and praised it highly. 50．Yes, I’d love to. It is one of the greatest paintings of the Chinese dragon and it shows the painter’s great painting skills. 【解析】本文围绕南宋画家陈容及其名画《九龙图》展开，介绍了陈容生平、独特作画方式、《九龙图》画面内容以及这幅作品受到乾隆皇帝喜爱的故事。 46．根据原文第二段“One of them was Chen Rong, a great painter in the Southern Song Dynasty.”和第三段“Chen was born in Fujian in 1200.”可知，陈容是“南宋”画家。直接提取“朝代”信息。 47．根据原文第三段末尾“However, he was widely respected for his talent in poetry, calligraphy and painting.”，可知他因诗歌、书法和绘画方面的才华广受敬重。直接提取信息。 48．根据第四段最后一句“Chen’s inscription on Nine Dragons shows that he created it when he was completely drunk.”可知，《九龙图》上陈容的题词表明这幅作品是他在酩酊大醉时创作的。因此答案就是原文直接信息。 49．根据最后一段“Many inscriptions by the Qianlong Emperor praised it highly. It’s said that the emperor liked the painting so much that he ordered a court painter to make a copy of it.”，可知乾隆高度评价这幅画，非常喜爱它。因此答案就是原文直接信息。 50．此题是开放性试题，答案不唯一，先回答 Yes/No，再写合理理由，语法正确即可。 五、书面表达（15分） 假定你是李华，你的笔友David对即将举行的中国画画展很感兴趣。请你结合以下图示用英语写一封电子邮件，向他介绍这次画展和志愿者项目，并请他关注线上相关信息。词数80左右。 注意事项： 1.必须包含所有提示信息，可适当发挥，开头已给出，不计入总词数； 2.意思清楚，表达通顺，行文连贯，书写规范； 3.请勿在文中使用真实的姓名和校名。 Dear David, I’m pleased to know that you’re interested in Chinese painting show. ________________________________ ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Yours, Li Hua 【答案】 One possible version: Dear David, I’m pleased to know that you’re interested in Chinese painting show.

Along the River During the Qingming Festival is one of China’s most famous traditional paintings. It was created by Zhang Zeduan, a talented artist from the Song Dynasty. Unlike typical landscape paintings that focus on mountains and rivers, this artwork shows the daily life of ordinary people. The scroll (卷轴) is like a “video” of ancient times. It shows a bustling (喧闹的) scene of Bianjing, the capital city at that time. From farmers selling vegetables to businessmen trading goods, the painting perfectly captures the social life of the Northern Song Dynasty. One of the most interesting details is the “ancient delivery man.” Near a hotel called “Shiqian Jiaodian”, a man wearing an apron (围裙) is rushing down the street. He’s holding two bowls of rice in one hand and chopsticks in the other. It’s believed to be China’s earliest image of a “food delivery guy.” The food service industry was already highly developed in the Song Dynasty! Another highlight is the arch (拱形的) bridge. Under it, a large boat is struggling to pass through. The people on the boat are shouting, while the boatmen on the shore are waving to guide them. The moments make the painting look alive—as if we’re watching real life from over 900 years ago. Besides, the painting also hides clever business ideas. Near the hotel, “Shiqian Jiaodian”, a lantern box with candles inside hangs at the door—like a Northern Song “neon sign” (霓虹灯)—to attract customers at night. Also, some teahouses even wrote dish names on their walls, creating the world’s earliest “menu” to help guests order easily. These show how lively and creative daily life was in Bianjing. Today, the original painting is kept in the Palace Museum in Beijing. It’s not just a piece of art; it’s also a valuable historical document (文献) that helps us learn about the life and culture of ancient China. 26．What is special about Along the River During the Qingming Festival compared with typical landscape paintings? A．It was painted in the Ming Dynasty. B．It is much shorter than other scrolls. C．It focuses on the lives of common people. D．It only shows natural scenery. 27．Why does the writer mention the “ancient delivery man”? A．To show that people in the Song Dynasty liked fast food. B．To show the food service industry was rather advanced then. C．To explain how to become a delivery man. D．To compare ancient food with modern food. 28．Which of the following is TRUE about the “Shiqian Jiaodian” in the painting? A．It was the only hotel that sold wine in Bianjing. B．It provided free delivery service for all citizens. C．It used a candle-lit lantern box as a sign to interest night customers. D．It was a hotel that hung dish names on the wall to help guests order. 29．What can we know about the original painting in the last paragraph? A．It is the first or real version of the painting kept in Beijing. B．It is a copy made by a machine. C．It is a picture drawn by a student. D．It is an old building in Beijing. 30．What is the best title of the passage? A．The history of the Song Dynasty. B．The differences between ancient and modern delivery services.

After getting drunk, he would shout, tear off his scarf, dip it in ink and spill the ink madly on xuanzhi. After that, the painter would use brushes to paint some details to finish his work. Chen’s inscription(题词) on Nine Dragons shows that he created it when he was completely drunk. Nine Dragons shows nine energetic dragons rolling, swimming and dancing among clouds, mist, waves, fires and cliffs. There are both crazy drops of ink and very fine lines. They show both the painter’s feeling of great disappointment with his life and his great skills with the brush. Nine Dragons was once treasured at court. Many inscriptions by the Qianlong Emperor praised it highly. It’s said that the emperor liked the painting so much that he ordered a court painter to make a copy of it. 46．In which dynasty was Chen Rong born? 47．According to the article, what was Chen widely respected for? 48．What was special about Chen Rong when he created Nine Dragons? 49．What did the Qianlong Emperor think of Nine Dragons? 50．Would you like to go to see Nine Dragons with your own eyes?
