三、阅读理解(每题2分，共20分)
A.
（2021安顺）Most
people
have
heard
of
the
Great
Wall
of
China,
but
not
many
people
outside
of
China
know
about
the
Grand
Canal.
This
man-made
waterway-
known
in
China
as
Da
Yunhe-
is
1,700
kilometers
long
and
some
parts
of
it
are
more
than
2,000
years
old.
It
links
the
north
of
China
with
Hangzhou,
a
city
in
the
southern
part
of
the
country.
It’s
the
longest
man-made
waterway
in
the
world.
It
was
built
as
a
way
to
transport
grain
（谷物）from
the
rich
agricultural
land
in
China’s
south
to
cities
in
the
north.
In
fact,
it’s
not
one
canal,
but
a
system
of
canals
and
rivers
linked
together.
It’s
still
an
important
part
of
the
transport
system
in
China.
Thousands
of
boats
use
it
every
day
to
transport
grain
and
many
other
types
of
cargo.
Now
the
Chinese
government
is
doing
new
work
on
the
Grand
Canal.
It
is
making
parts
of
it
deeper,
so
bigger
ships
can
use
it.
The
canal
will
also
help
to
move
water.
There
is
a
lot
of
rain
in
the
south
of
China,
but
not
as
much
in
the
north.
The
canal
will
carry
millions
of
liters
of
water
from
the
south
to
the
north.
The
Grand
Canal
is
much
less
famous
than
the
Great
Wall,
and
not
very
many
tourists
visit
it.
But
it’s
possible
to
go
on
a
cruise
（乘舟任游览）along
some
of
the
oldest
parts
of
the
canal.
Passengers
on
these
cruises
see
beautiful
parts
of
China
that
other
visitors
don’t
see.
21.
From
the
passage,
we
know
that
the
Grand
Canal
is
_________.
A.
more
than
two
thousand
years
old
B.
more
famous
than
the
Great
Wall
C.
the
longest
man-made
waterway
22.
What
does
the
underlined
word
“links”
mean
in
paragraph
1?
A.
Connects.
B.
Compares.
C.
Competes.
23.
What
is
the
main
idea
of
paragraph
2?
A.
The
Grand
Canal
is
helping
to
move
water
B.
Why
the
canal
was
built
and
how
it
is
used
now.
C.
The
Grand
Canal
was
used
for
transporting
grain.
244.
The
writer
wrote
this
passage
to
_________.
A.
describe
how
beautiful
the
Grand
Canal
is
B.
introduce
how
important
the
Grand
Canal
is
C.
explain
why
few
people
visit
the
Grand
Canal
25.
This
passage
is
probably
taken
from
a
__________
magazine.
A.
history
B.
fashion
C.
science
B
（2021深圳）Shashiyu
was
once
a
poor
village
in
Hebei
Province,
but
now
it
has
changed
into
a
rich
and
livable
place.
In
the
1940s,
villagers
in
Shashiyu
had
little
food
and
few
clothes,
but
they
had
a
strong
wish
for
a
better
life.
Zhang
Guishun,
the
Party
secretary
of
Shashiyu,
encouraged
his
villagers
to
do
their
best
to
pull
themselves
out
of
poverty.
“In
the
ancient
Chinese
story,
Yu
Gong
could
move
mountains
with
his
strong
will
and
hard
work,
why
can’t
we?
Nobody
was
born
to
be
poor?”
Hearing
his
words,
the
villagers
decided
to
make
a
difference.
Led
by
the
Communist
Party
of
China（中国共产党）,
the
villagers
carried
water
and
soil
to
their
village
from
faraway
places
to
improve
their
land.
From
1966
to.
1971,
they
reclaimed（开垦）lots
of
land
and
greatly
improved
their
life.
However,
the
village
encountered
a
new
problem
two
decades
later
as
the
environment
became
heavily
polluted
by
chemical
plants
and
mine
refineries
built
in
1990s.
The
polluting
factories
were
shut
down
in
2004,
and
villagers
started
grape
cultivation,
which
soon
became
a
main
industry
in
Shashiyu.
In
2009,
the
city-level
government
invested
over
1
million
yuan($152,
723)
to
change
the
village’s
exhibition
hall
into
a
museum
in
memory
of
development
efforts
made
by
earlier
generations.
After
10
years,
the
village
was
called
“National
Forest
Village”.
Zhang
said
that
the
village
started
a
yearly
tourism
festival
in
2015
to
attract
travelers
to
pick
grapes.
“The
grapes
could
be
sold
at
a
better
price
once
Shashiyu
becomes
famous
through
this
festival.
Our
villagers
can
then
live
even
better
lives,”
he
said.
26.
Why
did
Zhang
Guishun
use
the
story
of
Yu
Gong
to
encourage
the
villagers?
A.
Because
Yu
Gong
had
strong
will
and
hard
work.
B.
Because
Yu
Gong
was
born
poor
too.
C.
Because
the
villagers
worshiped
Yu
Gong.
D.
Because
Yu
Gong
became
rich
at
last.
27.
From
1966
to
1971,
what
did
the
villagers
do
to
improve
their
living
situation?
A.
They
planted
grapes
to
earn
money.
B.
They
carried
water
and
soil
to
their
village
to
improve
their
lands.
C.
They
moved
to
another
place
to
live
a
better
life.
D.
They
built
a
lot
of
factories.
28.
Which
word
can
be
used
to
describe
the
villagers?
A.
Hard-working.
B.
Lazy.
C.
Kind-hearted.
D.
