二、阅读回答问题。
Shadow puppetry (皮影戏), an ancient form of storytelling that first appeared in China more than 2,000 years ago, still enjoys popularity these days.
Just like so many animals on the earth that are in danger of dying out, traditional arts also face the risk of disappearing. “Many young people still think shadow puppetry is some kind of old-fashioned folk art,” said Liu Chaokan, who is the sixth-generation inheritor (传承人) of Liujiazhai shadow puppetry.
Before deciding to carry the torch of shadow puppetry, Liu Chaokan was practicing shooting as a student-athlete in college. Some of his college friends doubted the future of the family business. They couldn’t understand why he would choose to work on an “old and unattractive” art.
Empty seats and bad comments didn’t stop him. It was his love for shadow puppetry and the ambition to let the old art continue to shine in modern life that made him decide to stay on.
To make this old art form appeal to the young, he’s combined (使……结合) fresh content and brand-new stories with the traditional form of storytelling. In a recent show adapted by his team based on the ancient Chinese novel Journey to the West, Baigujing dances to the Korean pop hit Gangnam Style. Ne Zha, Pleasant Goat, and other famous Chinese cartoon characters, together with some popular foreign cartoon characters, are Liu’s secret of attracting the attention of children.
TikTok (抖音) has also been Liu’s new tool to spread shadow puppetry. To keep the old art forever young, Liu believes he should also respect its traditions. “You can’t shake the roots of the art,” Liu said. “Keeping its traditions and being creative are equally important.”

12. It first appeared in China more than 2,000 years ago.
根据“Shadow puppetry (皮影戏), an ancient form of storytelling that first appeared in China more than 2,000 years ago.”可知,皮影戏最早出现在2000多年前的中国。故填It first appeared in China more than 2,000 years ago.

根据“... Liu Chaokan, who is the sixth-generation inheritor (传承人) of Liujiazhai shadow puppetry.”可知,刘朝侃是刘家寨皮影戏的第六代传承人,故填He is the sixth -generation inheritor of Liujiazhai shadow puppetry.

根据“Some of his college friends doubted the future of the family business. They couldn’t understand why he would choose to work on an “old and unattractive” art.”可知,刘的一些大学朋友对他的家族企业的未来表示怀疑,他们无法理解为什么他会选择从事一种“古老而不吸引人”的艺术。故填They thought it’s old and unattractive.

三、用所给单词的正确形式填空。
17. twentieth
【解析】句意:20岁生日那天,南希收到母亲送给她的一部华为Mate 30。此处表示“第二十”,强调顺序,用序数词形式,故填twentieth。
18. society
【解析】句意:作为学生,我们应该努力学习,这样我们长大后就可以为社会做更多的事。形容词性物主代词our后接名词,society表示“社会”,这里指我们共同的社会,用名词单数形式即可,故填society。
19. washing
【解析】句意:洗完手之后,这个女孩开始吃早饭。
wash 洗,是一个动词。空前After是一个介词,后面跟动名词形式作宾语,故这里应填washing。
20. named
【解析】句意:你知道那个叫作“水城”的城市吗?
name在这里是一个动词,意为“命名,取名”,根据句子结构可知,这个空是后置定语,修饰空前的city,与名词构成被动关系,故应用过去分词,填named。
21. beginning
【解析】句意:会议开始时,他们一起唱了一首好听的歌。
begin 开始,是一个动词。根据句意和空前的the可知,这里应填名词形式beginning,也是“开始”的意思。这里at the beginning of …是固定短语,意为“在……开始时”。
22. us
【解析】句意:上个学期我姑姑教我们英语。
we 我们,人称代词主格形式。根据句意和空前的“taught”(教)可知,该空是动词的宾语,应用宾格形式,故填us。
23. most popular
【解析】句意:张老师是我们学校最受欢迎的老师之一,我们都喜欢他。
popular 受欢迎的,是一个形容词。这句话中使用了句型one of the +形容词最高级+名词复数,表示“最……的之一”,故这里填最高级most popular。
四、句型转换。
24. to him
【解析】句意:请给他一支钢笔。
句中谓语动词为give,意为“给”,常可以跟双宾语结构,句型是give sb. sth.或者是give sth. to sb.,因此这里应填to him。
25. bought, for
【解析】句意:他给我买了一些土豆。
句中谓语动词为bought,原形是buy,“买”,后面常跟双宾语,其构成是buy sb. sth.或者是buy sth. for sb.(给某人买某物)。时态不能改变,故第一个空还填过去式bought;第二个空填介词for。
26. When, where
【解析】句意:老舍1899年出生于北京。
划线部分表示的是老舍出生的时间和地点,故疑问词应该用when“什么时候”和where“在哪里”。故填When, where。
27. hope to
【解析】句意:我希望我能真正地理解这部小说。
句中谓语动词为hope,“希望”,常用于句型hope to do sth.(希望去做某事);或者后面跟宾语从句。原句中使用了hope后跟从句,同义句可变为hope to,后面接动词原形。
28. Did, plan
【解析】句意:他们打算留下来喝一些茶。
这句话中谓语动词planned是实义动词plan的过去式,一般疑问句应用助动词did构成,故第一个空填Did;第二个空应将过去式变为原形,故填plan。
