The city of Weifang in Shandong is the home of kites. The city holds an international kite festival in April every year. There are competitions for kite flying skills and new styles of kites. The most famous is the competition for the “Kite King”. Thousands of kite fans from more than 30 countries take part in the competitions,or just enjoy this colorful event.
The kite was invented by Chinese people over 2,000 years ago. According to historical records, kites were first used by soldiers to send news to their friends. In the Tang Dynasty, flying kites became a popular game for everyone. Since it spread to the West in the 13th century, the kite has had a great influence on Western life.
In 1752, the lightning rod (避雷针) was invented with the help of a kite. Modern aircraft(飞行器) came from kites, too. At the National Air and Space Museum in Washington DC, a board reads, “The earliest man made aircraft were the kites and missiles of ancient China.”

(2023江苏省泗阳县众兴中学调研)
A British friend told me he couldn't understand why Chinese people love sunflower seeds(瓜子) as a snack so much. “I've met a lot of older Chinese and many have a crack in their front teeth. I believe that that's from cracking the seeds,” he said.
I had never noticed the habit, but once he mentioned it, I suddenly became more aware. I realized that whenever I'm watching TV or typing up a report, I always start mindlessly cracking sunflower seeds. My friend doesn't like sunflower seeds, and, to him, it seems unnecessary to work so much just to get one small seed.
When we were young, the whole family would usually get together for Chinese New Year. Then, we all lived close to one another, usually in a small city, and sometimes even neighbors would go door to door on Chinese New Year's Eve to check out what every family was making.
I remember my parents would be in the kitchen cooking. Out in the living room, a large table would already be laid out, complete with a fancy tablecloth, ready made dumpling fillings, and dishes full of candy, fruits and sunflower seeds. Some of the dishes were to be offered to our ancestors later, while others were for neighbors and children to eat before the evening feast. I must have learned how to crack sunflower seeds back then.
I don't think it's right to criticize(批评) one's choice of food or eating habits, no matter how strange they may seem.
It's not only in China. When I went abroad, I found people had all sorts of strange habits when it came to food. In Denmark, they put salted red fish on bread and eat it for dinner, no matter how much it ruins your breath. They think it's delicious, and it's connected with their certain culture. I think it's a wonderful tradition.
5.Why can't the British friend understand Chinese people's love of eating sunflower seeds
A.Because the seeds are too hard to crack.
B.Because he thinks they are harmful to teeth.
C.Because he doesn't think the seeds are worth eating.
D.Because he doesn't think the seeds are good.
6.What does the writer prove by mentioning Chinese New Year
A.All the family get together for it. B.Children can eat delicious food on that day.
C.The traditions of celebrating it have disappeared. D.Eating sunflower seeds is related to it.
7.What's the writer's attitude to Denmark's way of eating bread
A.Uncaring. B.Negative. C.Understandable. D.Doubtful.
8.What idea does the writer want to express in this passage
A.Eating habits come from a certain culture.
B.It is good to form healthy eating habits.
C.Changing your eating habits will change your life.
D.One kind of food doesn't necessarily suit everyone.
Ⅲ.七选五
To an outsider, any culture can seem confusing. And the UK's got a thing or two that raises an eyebrow. However, understand the whys and then things might be less puzzling. 1 .
In a world where 61%of nations drive on the right, Brits drive on the left. Why Most people think it goes back to medieval times, maybe even Roman times. 2 when you remember that right handed people wore a sword (剑)on their left hip. Travelling on the left allowed you to keep your weapon(武器) arm toward your opponent, who would be on your right. This practice continued until the 18th century when a law was passed requiring all traffic crossing London Bridge to keep to the left.
Visitors to the UK that have just washed their hands in an old fashioned sink might be wondering why one tap is only for hot water, and the other cold. 3 . So, why this odd(古怪的) It relates to a time when hot and cold water were kept separate to prevent pollution. Drinkable cold water came from a main supply, but hot water came from attic tanks(阁楼水箱) and was not considered suitable for consumption. So they were kept apart.
Millions of people drink tea worldwide, but the odd Brits put milk in theirs. Why This mysterious practice relates to the quality of china cups used in the 18th century when tea was first imported. For the majority of Brits, the cups available couldn't stand the heat of the boiling water and would break, so milk was added first. 4 . And this practical change soon became a national habit.
5 . As you can see, these odd Brits have perfectly clear reasons for left hand driving, two tap sinks and tea with milk. Even if they still seem strange, at least now you're in the know.
A.This makes it difficult to improve
B.There is a method in their madness
C.This unusual behavior makes sense
D.You can know the origins of the practices
E.Either can make washing very uncomfortable
F.This cooled the cup enough to resist(抵挡) the boiling water
G.Here are the reasons for three of Britain's more puzzling practices
1. 2. 3. 4. 5.

UNIT 4 HISTORY AND TRADITIONS
Part 3 Reading for Writing, Assessing Your
Progress & Video Time
基础过关练
Ⅰ.1.custom 2.ensure 3.position 4.greeted
Ⅱ.1.generosity 考查名词。设空处作show的宾语,且由设空处前面的形容词性物主代词their可知此处应填名词generosity。 句意:一些人喜欢通过操办一桌丰盛的宴席来展示他们的慷慨大方。
2.announcement 考查名词。设空处作had的宾语,且由前面的不定冠词an和形容词important可知此处应用单数名词announcement。句意:第二天,杰克来到教室,说他有一个重要的公告要宣布。
3.from/against 考查介词。句意:这个讲座的目的是就学生如何保护自己免受校园欺凌提出建议。defend...from/against...保护……免受……。故填from或against。
4.crowded 考查形容词。设空处修饰后面的名词短语city streets,作定语,应用形容词crowded。 句意:一些人厌倦了拥挤的城市街道。他们更喜欢生活在乡村,在那里他们能过一种平静的生活。
5.to know 考查动词不定式。be eager to do sth.意为“渴望做某事”,故填to know。
6.has been wasted 考查动词的时态、语态和主谓一致。句意:在过去的几年里,我们浪费了大量的水,对我们来说,提高节约用水的意识是有必要的。设空处作谓语,由句中的时间状语in the past few years可知应用现在完成时,A huge amount of water与waste之间是被动关系,“a huge amount of+不可数名词”作主语时,谓语动词用单数形式。故填has been wasted。
Ⅲ.1.as well as 2.belonging to 3.break away from
4.keep our eyes open
Ⅳ.1.gave her a sense of achievement 2.free of charge 3.blocking many roads 4.With winter approaching
能力提升练答案
Ⅰ.1.on 考查介词。 have an influence on...意为“对……有影响”,故填on。
2.were 考查时态和主谓一致。此处为there be句型,由 In the long history of it可知应用一般过去时,由后面的many great writers and poets可知谓语动词应用复数形式。故填were。
3.offering 考查现在分词。该句中已有谓语,所以此处应用非谓语动词。offer与其逻辑主语The beautiful countryside之间为主动关系,所以用现在分词offering,构成现在分词短语作状语。句意:美丽的乡村给人以激情和灵感,满足各种感官享受。
4.dotted 考查过去分词。with its rolling green hills 4 with sheep and cattle为“with+宾语+宾语补足语”结构,its rolling green hills与dot之间为被动关系,故填过去分词dotted。 此处指青山连绵起伏,牛羊点缀其中。
5.a 考查冠词。此处指在一个安静的早晨,表示泛指,且quiet以辅音音素开头,应用不定冠词a。
6.it 考查代词。 句意:由于全部这般美景,爱尔兰形成包括音乐、舞蹈及菜肴的有影响力的传统就不足为奇了。根据 6 is not surprising that并结合句意可知此处是形式主语,that引导的从句作真正的主语,故用形式主语it。
7.that/which 考查定语从句的引导词。设空处无提示词,设空处前面是名词短语strong traditions,“ 7 include music, dancing, and dining”中缺少主语,结合上题所给的句意可推测设空处引导定语从句,修饰指物的strong traditions,故填that或which。
8.To have 考查动词不定式。句意:为了有机会体验这一切,拜访一家乡村酒吧,喝一杯葡萄酒或本地的啤酒。结合句意可知,此处表目的,应用动词不定式作目的状语,故填To have。
9.traditional 考查形容词。 设空处作定语修饰其后的名词music和dancing,故填形容词traditional。
10.friends 考查名词复数。make friends with...意为“和……交朋友”。故填friends。
Ⅱ.A
◎语篇解读 本文是一篇说明文,主要介绍了中国的风筝。
1.B 细节理解题。 根据第二段中的“paper or silk for the sails”可知,风筝面可以用纸或者丝绸制作。故选B。
2.C 细节理解题。 根据第三段中的“There are competitions for kite flying skills and new styles of kites.”可知,潍坊国际风筝节有各种各样的比赛。故选C。
3.B 细节理解题。根据第四段中的“According to historical records, kites were first used by soldiers to send news to their friends.”可知,中国士兵使用风筝向朋友发送消息。故选B。
4.D 推理判断题。文章主要介绍了中国的风筝,而风筝是中国传统文化的一部分,所以我们可以在报纸的文化板块看到这篇文章。故选D。
【高频词汇】 1.tie v.将……系在……上;系
2.competition n.竞赛;竞争 3.take part in...参加……
4.invent v.发明 5.spread v.传播;展开;(使)蔓延
6.have an influence on...对……有影响 7.date back to追溯到 8.various adj.各种各样的
B
◎语篇解读 本文是一篇说明文。作者主要通过解释中国人为什么喜欢嗑瓜子来说明饮食习惯与特定的文化有关。
5.C 细节理解题。根据第二段中的“My friend doesn't like sunflower seeds, and, to him, it seems unnecessary to work so much just to get one small seed.”可知,作者的英国朋友认为为了得到一颗小小的瓜子而做这么多工作是没有必要的,也就是说他觉得瓜子不值得吃。故选C。
6.D 推理判断题。第四段提到在作者小时候,每到除夕夜,客厅的桌子上会摆放很多美食,其中就有瓜子,小孩可以在年夜饭前吃,作者就是在那时学会了嗑瓜子。由此可知,作者提到春节是为了证明嗑瓜子和春节有关,故选D。
7.C 推理判断题。根据文章最后一句“I think it's a wonderful tradition.”可知,作者认为丹麦人吃面包的方式是一项美妙的传统,由此可知作者认为其可以理解,故选C。
8.A 推理判断题。根据倒数第二段“I don't think it's right to criticize one's choice of food or eating habits, no matter how strange they may seem.”以及最后一段中的“it's connected with their certain culture”可知,作者认为不应该批评一个人对食物的选择或者饮食习惯,这与人们的文化相关,这是作者想在这篇文章中表达的观点,故选A。
【高频词汇】 1.aware adj.知道;意识到 2.get together聚会 3.lay out摆开;铺开 4.all sorts of各种各样的
5.be worth doing值得做
【熟词生义】 complete with...包括……
长难句
原句 I don't think it's right to criticize one's choice of food or eating habits, no matter how strange they may seem.
分析 本句为主从复合句。think后跟省略了that的宾语从句;从句中it是形式主语,真正的主语是不定式短语to criticize one's choice...;no matter how引导让步状语从句。
译文 我认为批评一个人对食物的选择或饮食习惯是不对的,不管它们看起来多么奇怪。
Ⅲ.◎语篇解读 本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了英国靠左驾驶、洗手盆边有冷热两个水龙头以及喝茶加牛奶的习俗及其缘由。
1.G 过渡句。设空处上文说到英国也有一两件让人惊讶的事情,但是理解原因后这些事情也许就不会那么令人困惑了;第二段至第四段分别介绍了英国靠左驾驶、有冷热两个水龙头的洗手盆以及喝茶加牛奶的习俗及其来源,所以G项“以下是英国三种更加令人费解的做法的原因”能够起到承上启下的作用。故选G。
2.C 细节句。下文提到习惯用右手的人会把剑佩戴在臀部左侧,靠左走会让你拿武器的手臂对着在你右边的对手,有了这个缘由,C项“这个不寻常的行为(靠左驾驶)就讲得通了”显然是符合语境的。
3.E 细节句。设空处上文提到去英国的刚在老式洗手盆洗过手的游客可能想知道为什么老式的洗手盆边有两个水龙头,一个放冷水,一个放热水。E项“任何一个水龙头都让洗手变得非常不舒服”叙述了一个冷水水龙头和一个热水水龙头给游客带来的使用感受,符合语境。
4.F 细节句。设空处上文提到当时,大多数英国人使用的杯子无法承受开水的温度,会破裂,因此他们就先把牛奶加进去,F项“这样就降低了杯子的温度,使其足以抵挡开水(的温度)”承接上文内容,叙述了先加牛奶的原因,符合语境。
5.B 细节句。设空处下一句提到正如你所看到的,对于靠左驾驶、双水龙头的洗手盆以及加奶的茶,这些古怪的英国人有非常清晰的理由,B项“奇怪的行为有其道理”与下文在意义上表述是一致的,符合语境。
【高频词汇】 1.confusing adj.令人困惑的 2.puzzling adj.令人迷惑不解的 3.relate to...与……相关
4.separate adj.分开的;单独的 5.prevent v.阻止
6.suitable adj.合适的;适宜的 7.quality n.质量;品质
8.available adj.可利用的;可获得的 9.practical adj.切实可行的 10.make sense讲得通;有意义
长难句
原句 This practice continued until the 18th century when a law was passed requiring all traffic crossing London Bridge to keep to the left.
分析 本句是一个主从复合句。when引导的是定语从句,先行词是the 18th century;requiring all...为现在分词短语作后置定语,修饰a law,其中crossing London Bridge为现在分词短语作后置定语,修饰traffic。
译文 这个惯例持续到18世纪一条要求所有穿过伦敦桥的车辆靠左侧行驶的法律被通过的时候。

Ⅱ.1.generosity 考查名词。设空处作show的宾语,且由设空处前面的形容词性物主代词their可知此处应填名词generosity。 句意:一些人喜欢通过操办一桌丰盛的宴席来展示他们的慷慨大方。
2.announcement 考查名词。设空处作had的宾语,且由前面的不定冠词an和形容词important可知此处应用单数名词announcement。句意:第二天,杰克来到教室,说他有一个重要的公告要宣布。
3.from/against 考查介词。句意:这个讲座的目的是就学生如何保护自己免受校园欺凌提出建议。defend...from/against...保护……免受……。故填from或against。
4.crowded 考查形容词。设空处修饰后面的名词短语city streets,作定语,应用形容词crowded。 句意:一些人厌倦了拥挤的城市街道。他们更喜欢生活在乡村,在那里他们能过一种平静的生活。
5.to know 考查动词不定式。be eager to do sth.意为“渴望做某事”,故填to know。
6.has been wasted 考查动词的时态、语态和主谓一致。句意:在过去的几年里,我们浪费了大量的水,对我们来说,提高节约用水的意识是有必要的。设空处作谓语,由句中的时间状语in the past few years可知应用现在完成时,A huge amount of water与waste之间是被动关系,“a huge amount of+不可数名词”作主语时,谓语动词用单数形式。故填has been wasted。
Ⅲ.1.as well as 2.belonging to 3.break away from
4.keep our eyes open

能力提升练答案
Ⅰ.1.on 考查介词。 have an influence on...意为“对……有影响”,故填on。
2.were 考查时态和主谓一致。此处为there be句型,由 In the long history of it可知应用一般过去时,由后面的many great writers and poets可知谓语动词应用复数形式。故填were。
3.offering 考查现在分词。该句中已有谓语,所以此处应用非谓语动词。offer与其逻辑主语The beautiful countryside之间为主动关系,所以用现在分词offering,构成现在分词短语作状语。句意:美丽的乡村给人以激情和灵感,满足各种感官享受。
4.dotted 考查过去分词。with its rolling green hills 4 with sheep and cattle为“with+宾语+宾语补足语”结构,its rolling green hills与dot之间为被动关系,故填过去分词dotted。 此处指青山连绵起伏,牛羊点缀其中。
5.a 考查冠词。此处指在一个安静的早晨,表示泛指,且quiet以辅音音素开头,应用不定冠词a。
6.it 考查代词。 句意:由于全部这般美景,爱尔兰形成包括音乐、舞蹈及菜肴的有影响力的传统就不足为奇了。根据 6 is not surprising that并结合句意可知此处是形式主语,that引导的从句作真正的主语,故用形式主语it。
7.that/which 考查定语从句的引导词。设空处无提示词,设空处前面是名词短语strong traditions,“ 7 include music, dancing, and dining”中缺少主语,结合上题所给的句意可推测设空处引导定语从句,修饰指物的strong traditions,故填that或which。
8.To have 考查动词不定式。句意:为了有机会体验这一切,拜访一家乡村酒吧,喝一杯葡萄酒或本地的啤酒。结合句意可知,此处表目的,应用动词不定式作目的状语,故填To have。
9.traditional 考查形容词。 设空处作定语修饰其后的名词music和dancing,故填形容词traditional。
10.friends 考查名词复数。make friends with...意为“和……交朋友”。故填friends。

长难句
原句 I don't think it's right to criticize one's choice of food or eating habits, no matter how strange they may seem.
分析 本句为主从复合句。think后跟省略了that的宾语从句;从句中it是形式主语,真正的主语是不定式短语to criticize one's choice...;no matter how引导让步状语从句。
译文 我认为批评一个人对食物的选择或饮食习惯是不对的,不管它们看起来多么奇怪。
Ⅲ.◎语篇解读 本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了英国靠左驾驶、洗手盆边有冷热两个水龙头以及喝茶加牛奶的习俗及其缘由。
1.G 过渡句。设空处上文说到英国也有一两件让人惊讶的事情,但是理解原因后这些事情也许就不会那么令人困惑了;第二段至第四段分别介绍了英国靠左驾驶、有冷热两个水龙头的洗手盆以及喝茶加牛奶的习俗及其来源,所以G项“以下是英国三种更加令人费解的做法的原因”能够起到承上启下的作用。故选G。
2.C 细节句。下文提到习惯用右手的人会把剑佩戴在臀部左侧,靠左走会让你拿武器的手臂对着在你右边的对手,有了这个缘由,C项“这个不寻常的行为(靠左驾驶)就讲得通了”显然是符合语境的。
3.E 细节句。设空处上文提到去英国的刚在老式洗手盆洗过手的游客可能想知道为什么老式的洗手盆边有两个水龙头,一个放冷水,一个放热水。E项“任何一个水龙头都让洗手变得非常不舒服”叙述了一个冷水水龙头和一个热水水龙头给游客带来的使用感受,符合语境。
4.F 细节句。设空处上文提到当时,大多数英国人使用的杯子无法承受开水的温度,会破裂,因此他们就先把牛奶加进去,F项“这样就降低了杯子的温度,使其足以抵挡开水(的温度)”承接上文内容,叙述了先加牛奶的原因,符合语境。
5.B 细节句。设空处下一句提到正如你所看到的,对于靠左驾驶、双水龙头的洗手盆以及加奶的茶,这些古怪的英国人有非常清晰的理由,B项“奇怪的行为有其道理”与下文在意义上表述是一致的,符合语境。
【高频词汇】 1.confusing adj.令人困惑的 2.puzzling adj.令人迷惑不解的 3.relate to...与……相关
4.separate adj.分开的;单独的 5.prevent v.阻止
6.suitable adj.合适的;适宜的 7.quality n.质量;品质
8.available adj.可利用的;可获得的 9.practical adj.切实可行的 10.make sense讲得通;有意义
长难句
原句 This practice continued until the 18th century when a law was passed requiring all traffic crossing London Bridge to keep to the left.
分析 本句是一个主从复合句。when引导的是定语从句,先行词是the 18th century;requiring all...为现在分词短语作后置定语,修饰a law,其中crossing London Bridge为现在分词短语作后置定语,修饰traffic。
译文 这个惯例持续到18世纪一条要求所有穿过伦敦桥的车辆靠左侧行驶的法律被通过的时候。
