二、阅读理解 (共4小题;每小题5分,满分20分)
Chinese people are fond of food made of flour, whether it be dumplings or flatbread. In the hands of skilled artisans (手艺人), flour is made into lovely models of people or animals to be enjoyed and played with, which bring a unique kind of pleasure. This art form is called the dough figurine (面塑). Among the various art styles of dough figurines, Beijing's Dough Figurine Lang is a unique folk art form, which is filled with the rich history and customs of the capital city. Their delicate and lovely handicrafts(手工艺品) are storytellers of old and new Beijing. In 2008, it was included in the national intangible cultural heritage list.
It was created by Lang Shao'an. Most of the dough figurines are animals and characters from legends, historical stories, and local operas. The finished products are either put at the end of a thin stick or on a table for exhibition. Some are mostly for children to eat or play with, with simple forms and vivid decorations, while some are delicate pieces of artworks for display only. For this reason, during the making process they are often mixed with additives (添加剂) to avoid breaking up, being eaten by insects or going bad. Over the course of his long career, Lang Shao'an developed a set of nimble fingers with an elegant artistic sensibility.
Lang Jiaziyu, born in 1995, is the third-generation inheritor of Dough Figurine Lang. When he was 15, he created Fuwa-shaped dough figurines which were highly praised. He looks a bit more fashionable than other folk artisans. In his skilled hands, pop culture icons such as figures based on Marvel Comics characters and the mythological Chinese figure Nezha with smoky make-up are resonating with young people.
Like most of the other intangible cultural heritage handicrafts in China, Dough Figurine Lang does not get as much attention from the public. Few young people are willing to take time to master a skill that does not make money, which has led to a decline in the number of those who are devoted to the handicraft. Good handicrafts need the devotion of artisans from one generation to another.
1.What is special about Dough Figurine Lang
A.It reflects Beijing's culture.
B.It was created by many famous artists.
C.It shows people's lifestyles and beliefs.
D.It is popular with both tourists and the locals.
2.Why do artisans add additives to dough figurines
A.To make dough figurines taste good. B.To make colors brighter and last longer.
C.To help shape dough into various forms. D.To better preserve the finished products.
3.What is the third paragraph mainly about
A.Suggestions for other folk artisans.
B.Different art styles of dough figurines.
C.Lang Jiaziyu's basic information and achievements.
D.The popularity of modern dough figurines.
4.What is the main purpose of the passage
A.To appeal to people to value this folk art.
B.To tell people some information about Dough Figurine Lang.
C.To teach people ways to appreciate the handicraft.
D.To persuade people to protect the national cultural heritage.

答案以及解析
一、
1.答案:which
解析:句意为:这种无色的气体被称为氧气,离开了它我们不能生存。此处是“介词+关系代词”引导的定语从句,先行词是 The colourless gas,指物。故填 which。
2.答案:extinction
解析:句意为:这两名动物园管理员不愿意看到这种珍贵物种的灭绝。此处作 see的宾语,空前有定冠词the,空后有介词 of,应用名词,故填 extinction
3.答案:damaging
解析:句意为:各种车辆的排放物对环境造成了巨大的威胁,因此危害了人们的健康。thus为副词,设空处应用非谓语动词作结果状语,表示自然而然的结果,应用现在分词。故填damaging。
4.答案:with
解析:考查介词。句意:在考试期间,当你面对一个难题且不能解决它时,你最好跳过它处理其他的问题。be faced with...意为“面对……”。故填with。
5.答案:visually
解析:考查副词。句意:为了满足客户的要求,轿车不仅应该舒适,视觉上也要有吸引力。设空处前面为系动词be,后面为形容词attractive,故推测设空处应填副词,修饰作表语的形容词attractive, visually attractive表示“视觉上有吸引力”。
6.答案:to be admitted
解析:考查非谓语动词。句意:我的梦想是被一所重点大学录取,未来为我们的社会做出贡献。此处需用不定式作表语,说明主语的内容,表示将来的事,且此处表示被大学录取,需用不定式的被动形式,故填to be admitted。
7.答案:has declined
解析:考查时态。句意:他们正在对总统进行每月一次的民意测验,显然到目前为止他的受欢迎度已经下降了。根据so far可知,此处应用现在完成时,故填has declined。
8.答案:Regarded
解析:句意:约翰 济慈被认为是英语语言上最具天赋的诗人之一,他的诗歌集中于意象、人性和哲学。John Keats和regard之间是被动关系,故用regarded。
9.答案:Having been criticised
解析:考查非谓语动词。句意:因为忽视这个问题受到了批评,当地政府决定重视这件事。分析可知,设空处需用现在分词作原因状语,结合句中语境可知,应该是先受到了批评,才决定重视这件事,因此此处需用现在分词的完成式;the local government与criticise之间为被动关系,故填Having been criticised。
10.答案:While/Though/Although
解析:考查状语从句。句意:尽管摇滚音乐和诗歌有许多不同之处,但它们的确都能让我们思考我们的感受。结合句意可知,设空处引导让步状语从句,且在句首,故可用While/Though/Although。
二、
1.答案:A
解析:细节理解题。根据第一段中的“Beijing's Dough Figurine Lang is a unique folk art form, which is filled with the rich history and customs of the capital city”可知,北京面人郎这项民间艺术反映了历史悠久的北京文化。故选A。
2.答案:D
解析:细节理解题。根据第二段中的“during the making process they are often mixed with additives (添加剂) to avoid breaking up, being eaten by insects or going bad”可知,制作面人时常常加入添加剂是为了防止它们破碎、被虫子吃掉或变质。所以制作面人时加入添加剂是为了更好地保存它们。故选D。
3.答案:C
解析:主旨大意题。第三段首先对郎佳子或进行简单介绍,然后介绍了他15岁时创作的福娃面塑深受好评;接着介绍了他的艺术作品—漫威漫画人物和中国神话人物哪吒等在年轻人中产生了共鸣。综上所述,本段主要介绍了郎佳子或的基本信息以及他取得的艺术成就。故选C项。
4.答案:B
解析:推理判断题。根据对文章结构的理解(面塑以及面人郎的简介→面塑制作技艺→面人郎第三代传人郎佳子彧的介绍→面人郎艺术的发展现状)可以推断出,本文主要向读者介绍了面人郎的一些信息,故选B。
三、
答案:CGADE
解析:①设空处位于段中,考虑细节补充。空后说你会想要回顾你的旅程,看看你已经走了多远。由此可推知,想要回顾,就要看 beginner art(初学作品)。故选C。
②设空处位于段末,考虑承上启下或者归纳概括。本段的主题句是“Paint often and paint from life.”,后文由此展开。put in those brush miles和as much as possible都是对paint often的说明。最后概括:你会形成绘画肌肉记忆,这种记忆只能通过重复来实现。故选G。
③设空处位于段中,考虑细节补充。本段的主题句是“Continually challenge yourself to try something new.”。具体的做法就是走出舒适区,去尝试新的事物,接受新的挑战。故选A。
④设空处位于段首,考虑段落主题句。空后说寻求和接受建设性的反馈对成长至关重要。想要得到反馈,就要分享自己的作品。作者以自身为例,讲了自己上传作品后得到积极反馈的经历。post my work是share的方式之一。故选D。
⑤设空处位于段中,考虑细节补充。前一句说你的绘画之路不会一帆风顺,所以“你会遇到障碍,有时你会感到气馁”符合语境。故选E。
四、

Dear Jack,
Knowing that you are fond of traditional Chinese art, I am writing to invite you to attend a Chinese paper-cutting art exhibition to be held in the art gallery from 8:00 am to 5:00 pm next Sunday in our city center.
