Simon Wakefield’s Yunnan Diary
词数：449文体：日记摘自：外研版Book7 Module5
你去过云南吗？哪些景点让你印象最深刻，让我们进一步了解云南吧…
Simon Wakefield traveled round Yunnan after leaving university. Below are extracts from the diary that he kept.
April 23rd
This region is where the Naxi ethnic group live and I’ve spent several afternoons sitting in a café in the old town square, just watching people. Their culture is fascinating. For example, it is the women who run Naxi society, and until recently, Naxi women inherited all property. They sit in small circles in the square, with their babies on their backs, completely uninterested in the tourists! They have the custom of playing cards on card tables in the middle of the street. The Naxi still wear traditional costume----the women wear blue blouses and trousers covered by a blue or black apron.
This afternoon I was lucky enough to meet a Naxi man from the old town. He was between 80 and 90 years old , but was full of energy. He spoke some English and showed me some translations of Naxi poems. It was fascinating to read them! The Naxi language is the only hieroglyphic[footnoteRef:0] language still in use and is over 1,000years old. The Naxi believe that they came from a creature called Tabu, who helped them hatch from magic eggs.This story is shown in pictures in books put together in the 10th century, and there are still a few copies of these ancient books in Lijiang. [0: hieroglyphic 象形文字]
April 25th
Lijiang is a city of painters and writers, but Naxi culture is particularly famous for its music. Passed from father to son, the music has not changed for eight centuries, and among the richer Naxi people, knowledge of this music showed that you were a real gentleman. I’ve just returned from a performance of the Naxi Orchestra. It took place in an old wooden hall, and was played by Naxi men, some of whom looked as if they were well over 100 years old! They played ancient songs , songs with names such as The Water Dragon Is Singing, Wind from the River and The Sheep on the Hill. Sometimes the instruments sounded like women crying, or trees bending under snow. In the audience there were both tourists and local people. Everyone listened as if someone had put a spell on them.
April 29th
I have only one day left before traveling to Kunming and then flying back home. My stay here has been unforgettable and I really don’t want to leave. I’ve learnt so much about the Naxi culture, and I now understand that although people may seem very different from you, we all laugh, cry, and need love and friendship. However different we may appear to be at first, we are all the same, all equal.
【Comprehending】
Read the passage and fill in the blanks.
It is _______ who run the Naxi society.
______________is the only hieroglyphic[footnoteRef:1] language still in use and is over ___________years old. [1: hieroglyphic 象形文字]
The Naxi believe that they came from a creature called _____, who helped them hatch from magic eggs.

Immigrant on a Plate
词数：343 文体：说明文 摘自：外刊
你知道盘子上的移民吗？知道张鹏亮是谁吗？让我们了解中餐在美国的发展吧…
For several years, beginning in the mid-2000s, devotees[footnoteRef:2] of Chinese food on America’s east coast obsessed over a mystery: Where was Peter Chang A prodigiously talented—and peripatetic[footnoteRef:3]—chef, Mr Chang bounced around eateries in the south-east. One day diners at a strip-mall restaurant in suburban Richmond or Atlanta might be eating standard egg rolls and orange chicken; the next, their table would be graced by exquisite pieces of aubergine the size of an index finger, greaselessly fried and dusted with cumin, dried chillies and Sichuan peppercorns. Or by a soup made of pickled mustard greens and fresh sea bass, in its way as hauntingly perfect and austere as a Bach cello suite. A few months later, Mr Chang would move on. [2: devotee n.信徒；爱好者] [3: peripatetic adj.漫游的，逍遥的]
He now seems to have settled down, running a string of restaurants bearing his name between Rockville, Maryland, and Virginia Beach. His latest—Q by Peter Chang—in the smart Washington suburb of Bethesda, may be his finest. The space is vast and quasi-industrial, with brushed concrete floors, massive pillars and not a winking dragon in sight. Order a scallion pancake, and what appears is not the typical greasy disc but an airy, volleyball-sized dough sphere. Jade shrimp with crispy rice comes under what looks like an upturned wooden bowl (perhaps, you think, for the shells). On inspection the bowl turns out to be the rice. Thumping through it with a spoon reveals perfectly cooked shrimp floating in shamrock-green sauce.
A tab for two at Q can easily top three figures—several times the outlay on an average Chinese meal. Nor is Mr Chang’s the only such restaurant in the area: like many big American cities, Washington has seen a rise in high-end Chinese cuisine. That is good news, and not just for well-heeled gourmands who can tell shuijiao from shuizhu. The culinary trend is underpinned by two benign social ones. Chinese-Americans are becoming wealthier and more self-confident; and customers are shedding old stereotypes about Chinese food. To put it another way: sometimes a dumpling is more than just a dumpling.
【Comprehending】
How do you understand the underlined sentence
What do you think of Peter Zhang Give out your reasons.
3. Due to the novel coronavirus pneumonia, everybody stay at home and improve their cooking skills a lot. Do you cook at home What is your favorite dish Try to introduce it or how to cook it in English.

IV. 阅读理解（每题2.5分，共10分）
Learning Chinese could be one of the most important decisions you have ever made. Chinese is becoming the language to learn in the 21st century. With the world's largest population and a rapidly growing middle class, China stands to become the engine of the world's economy in the coming years. This will make learning Chinese very important for people in many industries（行业）or for those of us who wish to visit China or learn from its culture and history.
There is an ongoing effort to modernize the writing system and standardize the language. An increasing number of people learning Chinese are learning the Mandarin, so unless you absolutely need to learn another dialect (such as Cantonese), be sure you are studying Mandarin.
For native English speakers, Chinese is one of the most difficult and most different languages to learn. The vocabulary is wholly unfamiliar and unlike anything we know. In addition, in the Chinese tone（声调）system, words are spoken in rising or falling tones, which help to distinguish between them. Furthermore, there is the Chinese writing system—a collection of thousands of individual ideograms（表意文字）or symbols, which represent a word or an idea. These ideograms have no phonetic value—that is to say, we can't tell how the word is pronounced by how it is written. There is a method to present written Chinese in a phonetic script called pinyin. If you are learning Chinese, you'll be working with this pinyin system, but the beauty of the traditional writing system shouldn't be passed up（放弃）. All these factors make learning Chinese difficult for us. Yet, for a determined learner, there's always a way to overcome it.
1. Learning Chinese is becoming more and more important, because________.
A. Chinese engines are very welcome
B. China has the world's largest population
C. there are more and more rich people in China
D. China has become important to the world economy
2. From the text we can learn that_______.
A. the author thinks Chinese is as difficult as English
B. the author is interested in the Chinese language and its culture
C. foreign languages can play a great role in industrial development
D. as long as the pinyin system is learned well, one can learn Chinese well
3. The last paragraph mainly tells us about________.
A. the difficulties of learning Chinese B. the advantages of learning Chinese
C. the Chinese tone system D. the Chinese writing system
4. What would be probably written following this text
A. The sources of Chinese characters. B. The importance of learning Chinese.
C. The advice on how to learn Chinese. D. The difficulties of learning other languages.
V.语法填空（每题1分，共10分）
