A British man has learned the skills needed to perform Beijing Opera, making the audience(观众) enjoy his lively performance of the Monkey King.
Ghaffar Pourazar said he has been a big fan of Bruce Lee since he was a child and is full of interest in China. In 1993, he happened to watch Beijing Opera performed in London by professionals from Jingju Theatre Company of Beijing. Ghaffar said he fell in love with the beautiful voices, colourful costumes, excellent shows and so on. So after one year, he arrived in China alone and became a student of Beijing Opera at a Beijing school.
At the age of 32, he had to learn with teenage students every day, starting from the most basic training of the legs and waist. At the time, he was mostly troubled by the dialogue in Beijing Opera. To him, it was the biggest obstacle. But he never gave up.
Four years later, he began to learn to perform the Monkey King, a traditional character from the Chinese classic story Journey to the West. He said he arrived in the workroom an hour earlier than other performers and also bought books and CDs to better understand the character.
Ghaffar today is not only good at speaking Beijing dialect(方言) but also has built a fame for Beijing Opera. He once got a top international prize for performing the Monkey King.
To help more people enjoy Beijing Opera, Ghaffar often teaches the traditional art form in schools in the United States, Britain and other countries. When he found that the language was difficult to understand, he started to translate Beijing Opera song lyrics. Ghaffar led a group of actors to perform 66 times in a month and a half in the United States. He also led a 48-member team to perform in Malaysia. In the past 10 years, he has performed in more than 400 shows.

Culture means any human behaviour that is learned in human society. All the meaningful parts of a culture are passed on to different generations through tradition or social learning. 4._______ Culture exists in agricultural as well as industrial societies.
Culture is necessary for the survival and existence of human beings. Practically everything human beings know, think, value, feel, and do is learned through taking part in a socio-cultural system. 5._______ Here is one of the cases of children growing up apart from human society. In the province of Midnapore in India, the director of a children’s home was told by local villagers that there were “ghosts” in the forest. Upon looking into the case, the director found that two children, one about eight years old and the other about six years old, appeared to have been living with a pack of wolves in the forest. 6._______ In his diary, the director describes his first view of Kamala (as the older child was named) and Amala (the name given to the younger child):
Kamala was a terrible-looking being, the head, a big ball of something covering the shoulders. 7._______ Their eyes were bright and sharp, unlike human eyes. They were very fond of raw meat and raw milk. Gradually, as they got stronger, they began going on all fours, and afterwards began to run on all fours, just like squirrels.
Children learn human language in the same way they learn other kinds of human behaviour—by taking part in a cultural community.

A. This statement is well supported by some well-written cases.

The Great Wall of China is one of Beijing’s biggest draws for tourists. Despite its fame and ubiquity on postcards across the world, it rarely fails to attract tourists at the first proper sight. Yet the authorities open only certain sections of the Wall as fit for viewing, and few get to visit the unauthorized sections. Fewer still are aware of the existence of at least one part of the Wall that remains in almost original condition, nearly 1,500 years after construction of legendary fortification began. But there’s a good reason for this—it’s underwater.
American journalist Steven Schwankert has been diving since age 10. It was through his setting-up of a diving school that Schwankert came to explore some of the lesser-known areas of China’s lakes and discovered the underwater Wall under a reservoir. “The most fascinating piece of diving I ever did in China must be the Great Wall. I managed to find out about it via the Internet. It wasn’t difficult to get to Panjiakou in Hebei Province, near the Eastern Qing Tombs about 4 hours’ drive from Beijing. Why do I want to dive the Great Wall Why do people want to walk on the Great Wall It’s the same answer.”
There are, however, advantages of visiting the Great Wall in a diving suit over being on foot. The water acts as a preservative by preventing the kind of mass tourism that has brought trouble on other parts of the Wall.“Unlike the people who walk on the Wall, we as divers never need to actually touch it. I’ve dived twice there, the last time in July. I found that the water then was much deeper than it was before—13 metres deep.” When he first dived, parts of the Wall were visible above the surface. Now even the guard tower is completely submerged. “It’s better that the Wall is deep under water, as there are lots of boats coming in and out around that area. Their wave action could potentially damage the brickwork. So, the deeper, the better.”
5. Steven Schwankert is most interested in .
A. collecting photos of the Wall
B. walking along the Wall
C. diving the underwater Wall
D. visiting some famous lakes
解析：细节理解题。根据第二段“The most fascinating piece of diving I ever did in China must be the Great Wall.”可知,Steven Schwankert最感兴趣的是水下长城潜水。

A. Damaged by water. B. Washed by water.
C. Preserved by water. D. Covered with water.
解析：词义猜测题。与最后一段中的“visible above the surface”相对应,由此可推断出submerged是“被水覆盖”的意思,故D项正确。
答案：D
7. What is the topic discussed in the last paragraph
A. Advantages of walking on the Great Wall.
B. Advantages of visiting the underwater Wall.
C. The reasons why the Wall is deep under water.
D. The reasons why the underwater Wall is protected.

答案：B
8. What can we infer from the text
A. The underwater Wall will sink deeper year by year.
B. Diving the Wall is popular with divers all over the world.
C. Diving is a good way to visit the Wall without causing much damage.
D. More and more tourists will come to visit the underwater Wall in China.
解析：推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“The water acts as a preservative by preventing the kind of mass tourism that has brought trouble on other parts of the Wall.”可知,水下长城潜水拥有更好的优势,是游览长城的一种好方式,因为水下游长城可以避免对长城的破坏。故C项正确。

Pingyao, in the centre of Shanxi Province, is a famous historic cultural city of China and a world cultural heritage site. It’s 90 kilometres south of Taiyuan on the Fen River.
People lived in Pingyao during the New Stone Age. Its long period as a county government seat has left Pingyao with lots of historic buildings and sites, with a 2,700-year history. Ninety-nine of them are under government protection, including Zhengguo Temple, Shuanglin Temple and Ancient City of Pingyao.
During the Ming and Qing Dynasties, businessmen organised commercial(商业的) groups that did business nationwide. Shanxi Province had some of the most important ones and Pingyao was their centre. In 1823, a store, known as Rishengchang (Sunrise Prosperity), traded in bank checks rather than in silver or gold coins. It was the beginning of modern Chinese banking. Branch(分支) banks were soon set up in major cities in China and other parts of Asia, leading to great development in Pingyao. Its lacquerware(漆器) became well known.
In Pingyao Ancient City there are many traditional houses and commercial buildings, 3,797 of which are protected and more than 400 of which are in good condition. Not only do the houses in Pingyao show Shanxi’s history and culture, but they are also valuable for studying its history, customs, ancient buildings and art. Most of these houses are still used as homes and shops of local people.
In 1997, Pingyao Ancient City was listed in the World Heritage List as a“World Cultural Heritage Site”.

Thousands of years ago, in the south of ancient China, there lived Shennong, a man who had an ox(牛) head and a human body. Seeing that local people were suffering from disease, he built ladders and houses on a high mountain to store hundreds of medical plants. To remember him, people named the place Shennongjia.
The legend(传说) makes Shennongjia in Hubei an inviting place for tourists. Travelling there is a unique experience, as you can see sceneries of the four seasons from different altitudes. “When the bottom of the mountain is summer, the top is spring and while the foothill is autumn, the top is covered with ice,” local people say of the special climate of Shennongjia.
Shennongjia is also home to 5,000 species of animals and plants. Many animals in danger live there, such as the golden monkey, the clouded leopard and the Asian black bear.
One interesting and mysterious thing about Shennongjia is its legend of wild men. Some people once claimed that they saw big footprints or big-foot creatures. Yet so far, scientists haven’t proved it and some say they are just bears.
The beautiful place has received a new title. On July 17, 2016, Shennongjia Forestry District was added to the United Nations World Heritage List as a natural site.
4. Which of the following is right about Shennong
A. Shennong had an ox body.
B. Shennong grew medical plants for people.
C. Shennong helped the local people.
D. Shennong named the place Shennongjia.

Officials from Guangxi in the south of China are looking for ways to attract more tourists from Mexico.
Earlier this week, Li Bin, vice chairman of Guangxi, visited Mexico City and spoke about Guangxi’s growing tourism industry and the government’s efforts to attract tourists from Mexico.
“This time in Mexico, we not only want to learn about its successful tourism strategy, but also to promote the beautiful scenery—both cultural and natural—found in Guangxi,” Li said in a presentation which was also attended by Chinese ambassador(大使) Qiu Xiaoqi.
Guangxi’s rich natural attractions and cultural heritage make it a popular tourism place for both Chinese and foreigners, Li said.
Guangxi’s top attractions include the famous Karst Mountains and Caves in the riverside city of Guilin, a UNESCO-listed World Heritage Site known for its unusually-shaped green hills.
Another popular sight is Zuojiang Huashan, home to rock paintings believed to be more than 2,300 years old.
Ambassador Qiu also praised the beauty of Guangxi. “I’ve been in Mexico five years. Many friends know me, but very few know that I am from Guangxi,” Qiu said. “I am going to do everything possible so that my birthplace becomes a place that helps develop the tourism and the human relations between our two countries,” Qiu added.
In 2017, 520 million tourists visited Guangxi, including 5 million foreign visitors.

Some people describe American society as a salad bowl while others think of it as a melting pot. In a bowl of salad, all the ingredients(配料) are mixed together. 10._______ Together, however, the ingredients make up a unity. All the ingredients of a salad contribute to the finished product. They may be covered with the same dressing, but the green vegetables, tomatoes and cooked corn can all be seen for what they are.
From this point of view, America is very much like a salad bowl where individual ethnic(种族的)groups mix together, yet maintain their cultural uniqueness. People may work together during the day at similar jobs and in the same companies, but at night they may return to their ethnic groups where their own individual culture directs their way of life.
11._______
12._______ Here, society is like one large pot of soup. All cultural aspects are mixed together, sacrificing their original identity and keeping a bit of what they were to become a new reality. The longer the soup is cooked, the better the taste and the more likely it will be for the mixture to dissolve. In this sense, America can surely be seen as a melting pot where people from all over the world come to live and work together forming one nation. There are dozens of shared symbols. 13._______ In such a culture, symbols like the flag and the nation’s official song serve to break down the walls which separate ethnic groups.
Whether a salad bowl or a melting pot, America can be best described as a mixture of both. 14._______
A. Both are correct depending on one’s point of view.
B. They never lose their shapes, colours or tastes.
C. This is why there is so much diversity within America.
D. In other words, America is a nation where there is unity in diversity.
E. Thus, one needs to abandon one’s culture to be considered “American”.
F. They serve to develop the various ethnic groups to create a new American culture.
G. The other theory, which is also used to describe American society, is the melting pot.
10. 解析：根据文意可知,在沙拉碗里,各种沙拉的成分混合在一起,但它们都还保持各自的形状、颜色和口味。结合选项可知,与此叙述相关的是B项,同时B项中的代词they即是指上文提到的ingredients。
答案：B
11. 解析：本段主要讲美国被看作沙拉碗的原因:每一个种族都保持着各自的文化独特性。C项是对空前内容的总结和归纳,尤其是句中的diversity是解题的关键。
答案：C
12. 解析：本段主要讲美国被称为“melting pot”的原因,G项中的melting pot与空后的pot构成词汇复现。
答案：G
13. 解析：空前提到,美国无疑可以被视为一个大熔炉,来自世界各地的人们来到这里生活和工作,组成一个国家。F项“他们致力于发展不同的民族,创造新的美国文化”承接上文内容。
答案：F
14. 解析：本段是对前面两个段落内容的总结和归纳,讲到“无论是沙拉碗还是大熔炉,美国都可以被描述为两者的混合体”,这与D项的句意完全一致。
答案：D

Scientists in Mexico have just begun a new study of one of the worlds biggest pyramids: the Pyramid of the Sun, north of Mexico City. They’re putting lots of small, high-tech machines under the pyramid to try to unlock some of its secrets. For thousands of years, people have tried to uncover the secrets of the pyramids.
The people who built the pyramids made lots of secret doors and rooms to stop robbers from finding the treasures inside. However, there always have been some smart thieves in history. Now, almost all of Egypt’s pyramids have been robbed, including the Great Pyramid of Khufu, which is the largest pyramid in the world.
In AD 820, an Arab king named Abdullah Al Manum got a group of workers to dig their way into the Great Pyramid and have a look. Inside the pyramid, they found three rooms—the Queen’s Chamber, the Grand Gallery and the King’s Chamber. But to their surprise, the men didn’t find the treasures they wanted. The Queen’s and King’s Chambers were both empty! Had someone already taken them away The huge stone doors at the pyramid’s entrance were still closed when Al Manum’s men went inside. How had the thieves got in and out
Since then, many people have gone inside the Great Pyramid to have a look or to try to take things. But still, no other chambers or walkways have been found.
In 2002, an American team made the most recent visit to the Great Pyramid. Scientists sent a robot into the pyramid, but they only found a mysterious locked stone door.

限制性定语从句(3)
一、限制性定语从句与非限制性定语从句的区别
【观察思考】
The old man has a son, who is in the army.
I still remember the days when I was in hospital and you looked after me very well.
We walked down the village street, where villagers were having Market Day.
【探究总结】
(1)以上三个句子中,第一句和第三句是非限制性定语从句,因为先行词a son、 the village street后都有逗号。
(2)第二句是关系副词when引导的限制性定语从句,先行词是the days。
(3)第一句是who引导的非限制性定语从句,定语从句中缺少主语,指人,只能用who引导,因为that不能引导非限制性定语从句。
【辨析】
项目 限制性定语从句 非限制性定语从句
形式 定语从句前面一般不用逗号 定语从句和主句之间通常用逗号分开
意义 是主句不可或缺的一部分,如果省去,主句意义不完整 对主句所描述的人或物提供一些附加情况,起补充说明作用,即使省去,主句意义仍完整
引导词 that、 why可以引导限制性定语从句 that、 why不可以引导非限制性定语从句
【应用实践】
单句语法填空。
①English is an important subject, every student should study well.
②She is the new student I want to introduce to you.
③Do you know the professor is speaking at the meeting
答案: ①which ②that/whom ③who/that
二、限制性定语从句中关系词的特殊用法
定语从句中关系代词that/which可以充当主语和宾语(充当宾语时可省略),可以指物;而that/who在定语从句中可以充当主语和宾语,指人。不过在具体的使用中我们应该注意以下几个问题。
1. 限制性定语从句中只能用that不能用which的情况
【观察思考】
All that is needed is a supply of oil.
This is the last thing that I want to tell you.
The first English book that I read was The Prince and the Pauper by Mark Twain.
He talked about the teachers and schools that he had visited.
Who is the person that is standing at the gate
【探究总结】
(1)当先行词是不定代词everything、 anything、 nothing、 all、 none、 much、 few、 any、 little等时,或当先行词被every、 any、 all、 few等词修饰时,关系代词一般用that。
(2)先行词被the only、 the very、 the last修饰时,关系代词一般用that。
(3)先行词被序数词、形容词最高级修饰时,关系代词一般用that。
(4)先行词既有人又有物时,关系代词一般用that。
(5)当主句是以who或which 开始的特殊疑问句时,关系代词一般用that以避免重复。
【应用实践】
单句语法填空。
①Finally, the thief handed everything he had stolen to the police.
②That’s one of the most interesting books are sold in the bookshop.
③My necklace is not the only thing is missing.
答案: ①that ②that ③that
2. 限制性定语从句中常用which的情况
【观察思考】
The tree under which we used to take a rest has been cut down.
I don’t take that which is too expensive.
【探究总结】
(1)当关系代词前使用介词时,关系代词一般用which。
(2)先行词为代词 that 或被that 所修饰时,或一个句子同时有两个定语从句,其中一个是由that引导时,另一个用which,以免重复。
【应用实践】
选词填空(that/which)。
①I can’t remember the age at he won first prize.
②You can take any room you like.
③The ladder on I am standing was bought in the supermarket.
④He hides all the people and things he knows.
答案:①which ②that ③which ④that
三、“介词+which/whom” 引导的定语从句
【观察思考】
Do you remember the day when/on which you joined our club
This is the reason why/for which he gave up the chance.
This is the company where/in which we worked last year.
=This is the company which we worked in last year.
Who’s the man whom you just shook hands with
=Who’s the man with whom you just shook hands
The man (that/whom) you were talking about has come to our school.
【探究总结】
(1)关系副词(when、 where、 why)可以用“_______+which”替换。其中 why=_______+which。
(2)“介词+关系代词”引导的定语从句,修饰物时用which而不用that,修饰人时用whom而不用who。
(3)在定语从句中,当关系代词which作介词的宾语时,既可以把介词放在which之前,也可以放在从句的末尾。当介词放在句子的末尾时,关系代词既可以用which也可以用that。
介词
for
含有介词的固定短语动词一般不拆开,如look after、 take care of、 look at等。如:
Is this the watch which he was looking for (不能说: Is this the watch for which he was looking )
【应用实践】
单句语法填空。
①Luckily, we’d brought a road map without we would have lost our way.
②He will never forget the day which he was admitted to the Olympic Games for the first time.
③The musicians whom we have great interest toured Europe with us.
答案: ①which ②on ③in
四、容易混淆的关系代词和关系副词
【观察思考】
This is the factory where I want to work.
This is the factory that/which I want to visit.
Tell me the reason why you are late.
Is this the reason that/which he told you
I don’t like the way that/in which he spoke to his mother.
【探究总结】
(1)先行词是表示时间、地点、原因的名词时,定语从句不一定要用关系副词。这要看关系词在定语从句中作什么成分,若是用作状语则用关系 词,若是用作主语、宾语等则要用关系 词。
(2)当先行词是the way 时,如果在定语从句中作状语,则该定语从句常用 、 引导或省略关系词。
答案: (1)副;代 (2)that in which
【应用实践】
单句语法填空。
①The old town has narrow streets and small houses are built close to each other.
②A bank is the place they lend you an umbrella in fair weather and ask for it back when it begins to rain.

Nowadays, many cultural relics have already been destroyed and hundreds of others are facing the danger of disappearing. As we all know, cultural relics represent history and culture. They offer us a great opportunity to learn about what happened in the past and they are the roots of a city or a place. They have survived for a long time and they are usually very rare and valuable. It's urgent for us to take measures to protect them.
Through the activities, students have realised the importance of protecting cultural relics. They think they should spare no effort to do what they can to protect cultural relics.

答案:
A Heated Discussion on Cultural Heritage Protection
Guangming Middle School, 10 September 2020. Recently Class 2 had a heated discussion about whether it is important to protect cultural heritage. They are divided in opinion about it.
87% of the students consider it important to protect cultural heritage. They think that cultural heritage is a symbol of great ancient civilisation. Most cultural heritage is related to great people, so protecting it shows respect for them. Cultural heritage is of great value and protecting it can make us feel proud of our nation. However, the rest hold the opinion that it doesn’t matter whether cultural heritage is protected. They think it won’t promote the development of society, so it is a waste of time and money to protect it.
As far as I’m concerned, we should keep our minds clear and take more effective steps to better protect cultural heritage.

An English Speech About Protecting Traditional
Chinese Culture
Guangming Middle School, 15 September, 2020. Recently our school held an English speech about protecting traditional Chinese culture.
Most students think the protection of national and folk culture is of great importance to Chinese cultural diversity and also to the harmonious development between economy and society. They believe much attention should be paid to the protection of Chinese traditional culture, such as Peking Opera, Chinese Calligraphy, traditional Chinese medicine, Chinese poetry and so on.
They think some measures should be taken immediately to protect traditional culture effectively. To start with, laws should be made to regulate society’s performance. Besides, it’s important
to draw more people’s attention to cultural protection, for the more they know about it, the stronger support we can get from the public.(共46张PPT)
