六、阅读理解
Every week in China, millions of people will sit in front of their TVs watching teenagers compete for the
title Character Hero, which is a Chinese-style spelling bee. In this challenge, young competitors must write Chinese characters by hand. To prepare for the competition, the competitors usually spend months studying dictionaries.
Perhaps the show’s popularity should not be a surprise. Along with gunpowder and paper, many Chinese
people consider the creation of Chinese calligraphy(书法) to be one of their primary contributions to civilization. Unfortunately, all over the country, Chinese people are forgetting how to write their own language without
computerized help. Software on smart phones and computers allows users to type in the basic sound of the word using the Latin alphabet. The correct character is chosen from a list. The result It’s possible to recognize
characters without remembering how to write them.
But there’s still hope for the paint brush. China’s Education Ministry wants children to spend more time learning how to write.
In one Beijing primary school we visited, students practice calligraphy every day inside a specially decorated classroom with traditional Chinese paintings hanging on the walls. Soft music plays as a group of six-year-olds dip brush pens into black ink. They look up at the blackboard often to study their teacher’s examples before carefully
attempting to reproduce those characters on thin rice paper. “If adults can survive without using handwriting, why bother to teach it now ” we ask the calligraphy teacher, Shen Bin. “The ability to write characters is part of Chinese tradition and culture,” she reasons. “Students must learn now so they don’t forget when they grow up.” says the
teacher.
1 ．What can we learn about the Character Hero
A ．It’s open to people of all ages and all walks.
B ．It’s the most-viewed TV programs in China.
C ．It aims to spread Chinese culture to the world.
D ．It draws great public attention across the country.
2 ．Why are Chinese people forgetting how to write the characters
A ．Chinese people don’t refer to dictionaries very often.
B ．Chinese people no longer use brush pens or practice calligraphy.
C ．Chinese people are using the Latin alphabet instead of the characters.
D ．Chinese people needn’t write by hand as often with the help of technology.
3 ．.According to Shen Bin, being able to write characters by hand is .
A ．necessary for adults to survive in China
B ．a requirement made by the Education Ministry
C ．helpful to keep Chinese tradition and culture alive
D ．an ability to be developed only when you are students

本文是说明文。文章介绍了汉语书写体系的历史发展及其意义。
1 ． 【答案】widely
【解析】 考查副词。句意：中国以其古老的文明而闻名。根据句意可知，wide修饰形容词known，应用副
词形式widely，意为“范围广地”作状语。故填widely。
2 ． 【答案】why
【解析】 考查定语从句。句意：有很多让其可能的原因，但其中一个主要因素是中国的书写体系。分析句 子可知，空格处为限制性定语从句，修饰先行词reasons ，关系词代替先行词在定语从句中作原因状语，表 示“ 由于这些原因” ，应使用关系副词why引导该定语从句。故填why。
3 ． 【答案】writing
【解析】 考查名词。句意：有很多让其可能的原因，但其中一个主要因素是中国的书写体系。根据句意可 知，应使用名词writing(书写，书法)作定语，修饰名词system，构成名词词组writing system，表示“ 书写体 系” 。故填writing。
4 ． 【答案】At
【解析】 考查介词。句意：最初，汉字是一种以图画为基础的语言。at the beginning为固定短语，表示“最 初” ，另外，句首单词首字母大写。故填At。
5 ． 【答案】had become
【解析】 考查动词时态。句意：到了商朝，这些符号已经成为一种很发达的书写体系。分析句子可知， become 是句中谓语动词，与主语these symbols之间是主动关系，又因句中有时间状语By the Shang Dynasty(在商朝 之前)，可知应使用过去完成时态。故填had become。
6 ． 【答案】in
【解析】 考查介词。句意：到了秦朝，中国的文字系统开始向一个方向发展。 “ 向/朝……方向” 需要用介词 in表示， in one direction意为“ 向一个方向” 。故填in。
7 ． 【答案】importance
【解析】 考查名词。句意：文字系统对于中华民族和中华文化的统一具有重要意义。 “be of + 名词”为固定 句型，相当于“be + (名词相关的)形容词” ，表示主语具有某种性质或特征；句中...was of great importance相 当于...was of very important。故填importance。
8 ． 【答案】connected
【解析】 考查动词语态和过去分词。句意：通过文字，中国的现在与过去联系在了一起。分析句子可知， connect(联系)是句中谓语动词，与主语China’s present之间是被动关系，应使用被动语态，又因空格前已经 给出be动词is，所以填过去分词connected。故填connected。
9 ． 【答案】is
【解析】 考查动词时态和主谓一致。句意：今天，中国的文字系统仍然是中国文化的重要组成部分。分析 句子可知， 空格处be动词是句中谓语连系动词， 因句中有时间状语Today，所以应使用一般现在时态， 又因 主语the Chinese writing system是单数名词，所以谓语动词应使用第三人称单数形式。故填is。
10 ． 【答案】amazing
【解析】 考查形容词。句意：越来越多的人开始通过这门神奇的语言欣赏中国的文化和历史。-ing形容词 常修饰限定事或物，表示“令人 …… 的” ，-ed形容词常修饰限定人，表示“感到 …… 的” ；根据句意可知，句 中amaze修饰名词language，表示“令人感到神奇的语言” ，应 使用-ing形容词amazing。故填amazing。

【解析】 细节理解题。根据第二段中的“Unfortunately, all over the country, Chinese people are forgetting how to write their own language without computerized help. (不幸地是， 没有电脑的帮助中国人正在日益忘记如何写汉 字。 )”可知，中国人忘记汉字的书写主要是因为有高科技的帮助。故选D。
3 ． 【答案】D。
【解析】 推理判断题。根据最后一段最后一句“‘The ability to write characters is part of Chinese tradition and culture,' she reasons. ‘Students must learn now so they don't forget when they grow up.' says the teacher. (她解释 说， 写字是中国传统和文化的一部分。学生们必须现在就学习， 这样他们长大后就不会忘记。老师说。)”可 知，沈斌认为，汉字的书写是中华传统文化的一部分，学生们现在学会写汉字才不会在长大后忘记汉字的
书写。因此推断她认为汉字的书写对于保持中国传统和文化的延续是有益的。故选C。 4 ． 【答案】A。

Dear fellow students,
Do you know why Chinese civilization has continued all the way through into modern times There are many reasons, but one of the main factors has been the Chinese writing system.
It dates back to the use of symbols carved on longgu several thousand years ago. Over the years, the system developed into different forms. This, however, changed in the Qin Dynasty. It began to develop in one direction. The Chinese writing system is of great importance in connecting the past and the present, as well as the Chinese
people and culture. People, divided by geography and dialects, can still communicate with each other in writing. They can even read and learn from the classic works and calligraphy. What’s more, it has even become an important means of connecting China and the world. Many foreign students are beginning to appreciate China’s culture and history through its amazing language.
However, with the development of society and technology, it meets great challenges today, such as character amnesia and the poor writing habits. As students, we believe it’s quite necessary for us to learn Chinese better, and do something to develop it. We can better our handwriting by attending the calligraphy lessons. When we write our articles or messages, we should refuse the confusing phrases. Besides, holding the Character Hero competitions or some classic works reading activities are quite necessary.
As a Chinese, I’m really proud of our amazing Chinese writing system. And I believe that with our active participation and serious attitude to it, it will surely have a bright future.
Thank you for listening!
