ninety-one years old and she has wonderful 17 . That is why she sent me the “thank you” letter. She also
has wonderful handwriting. Her penmanship (书法) is smooth. Each letter and word is perfectly formed. It is a

Aunt Lorraine was educated half a century ago. At that time, penmanship was 19 an important skill.
Now, it is the age of e-mail and social media. 20 people have the time or want to practice their
penmanship or write letters by hand.
This is unfortunate. In my opinion, good penmanship still counts. This is especially true in school. If you

good ideas. However, 21 handwriting can turn an A into a B．Awful handwriting can get you a D!
Good penmanship has other benefits (益处), too. 22 it’s a skill, it trains your brain and develops
your learning abilities. It also helps you organize your thoughts. And, believe it or not, that slow process (过程) of
pushing a pen 23 paper improves your reading, spelling and even your pronunciation of English.
Apart from all these educational benefits, good penmanship also has 24 benefits. A beautifully
written letter to a friend is something he or she will treasure forever. A letter that looks as if a chicken had danced
across the paper will be quickly 25 . I have kept the letter from my Aunt Lorraine. It's a great treasure!

clear 清楚的；interesting 有趣的；messy 凌乱的；good 好的。根据“turn an A into a B”可知，潦草的笔记能
将你的分数拉低，故选 C。

A
Mr. Wu is showing his classmates how to make pressed flowers（押花）.
Start here
Step 1: Carefully pick a few flowers in a place where you are allowed. Do not take too many! Pick them later
in the day and when the weather is fine so they’re not wet from rain.
Step 2: Open a heavy book and lay a piece of blotting paper（吸水纸）inside. Place your flowers “face”
down to keep the petals（花瓣）nice and flat. You could press some “sideways” for a different result. Then place
another piece of blotting paper on top.
Step 3: Carefully close the book and place more heavy books on top. Put them in a warm place. Check on
your flowers every few days and change the blotting paper if it’s wet. It should take about 2—4 weeks for your
flowers to fully dry.
Pressed Flower Works
Once they’re dry, you can make some amazing art from your flowers. PVA glue is the best thing to stick
them with.
◆Cool Cards
Stick pressed flowers to the cards and give them to your friends and family as presents.
◆Framed（框架的）Flowers
Organize them on paper and frame them! Double-sided glass frames look great, too.
◆Candle Holders
Use PVA glue to stick them to the outside of empty glass jars. Then add a few layers of PVA on top. Once
dry, use as tea-light holders.
Tips
Large flowers such as bluebells or dandelions take longer to dry out. The flowers will keep their colour better
if you press them soon after picking.
26．What’s Mr. Wu’s course about
A．P.E. B．DIY. C．Biology. D．Painting.
27．To make a candle holder with pressed flowers, Shelly needs flowers, books, blotting paper, ________.

27．细节理解题。根据“Use PVA glue to stick them to the outside of empty glass jars. Then add a few layers of
PVA on top. Once dry, use as tea-light holders.”可知，要制作烛台，用 PVA 胶水把它们粘在空玻璃罐的外面，
再在上面涂上几层 PVA。一旦干下来，可用作茶灯架。由此可知，要用押花做一个烛台，雪莉需要花、书、
吸墨纸、胶水和一个罐子。故选 B。
28．细节理解题。根据“Once they’re dry, you can make some amazing art from your flowers. PVA glue is the best
thing to stick them with.”可知，一旦它们变干了，你就可以用你的花制作一些令人惊叹的艺术品。PVA 胶
水是粘贴它们最好的东西。说明这三件压花作品都用了胶水。故选 D。

Resting her phone on a stand and making the light more suitable, 49-year-old Lyu Min started her
livestreaming session — her daily job during the COVID-19 outbreak. Dressed in a qipao, a traditional Chinese
dress, Lyu started the livestreaming session from her workshop at 10 in the morning, sharing the art of making
Chinese knots with many handicraft(手工艺) lovers. Lyu, an inheritor(继承人) of the art of making Chinese knots,
which is listed as an intangible(非物质) cultural heritage, became a livestreaming host.
“Though the sales of Chinese knots have dropped a lot, I’m still confident that I can get out of the trouble
brought by the outbreak. I can make full use of this period to improve my skills and develop this traditional
handicraft online,” she said. Lyu is quite new to the world of livestreaming, having bought all the necessary
equipment(设备 ) after following her friends advice. She practises livestreaming every day and records a large
number of educational videos. As face-to-face interaction is still impractical for many, even as the outbreak has
been largely brought under control in China, she thinks livestreaming classes can meet more Chinese knot lovers’
needs to learn the handicraft.
She has integrated the anti-epidemic spirit into her works, expressing the determination( 决 心 ) and
confidence of the Chinese people to win against the COVID-19. “I love Wuhan, where I showed my works in
2019. Chinese knots are popular among many local people, and I made lots of friends there,” Lyu said. She
designed a special Chinese knot to express her thanks to the medics who were sent to support Wuhan several
months ago.
She has more than 200 followers right now. There are more and more Chinese knot lovers on her online
platform. She is using a length of colored string and determination to keep this traditional art of Chinese knots
alive online and help more people understand the culture.

Advertisements are everywhere, TV, newspapers, magazines and of course, on the Internet. Is advertisement
really necessary Billions of dollars are spent on it every year, so it must be important. After all, it’s a busy world.
You have to advertise to get people’s attention to sell products!
Not every company thinks that way, however. The NO-AD company doesn’t advertise in traditional ways. It
sells its products by word of mouth. In this way, they can save money and keep costs down, which makes their
products cheaper for customers.
“Word-of-mouth advertising” happens when one person tells another about a good experience with a product
or service. That next person then tells another friend, family member, or colleague (同事 ). And so a chain of
information is created.
Usually, advertisers talk about how good their product is. Although they say things like “Studies show that
our product is the best,” or “Everyone loves this product,” it can sound unconvincing. It’s much more believable
to hear about a product from a family member or friend who has used it and liked it. Our loved ones’ opinions are
very important to us, so we often listen to their advice about a product.
Word-of-mouth advertising has other advantages, too. It’s cost-effective (after all, it’s free) and a company
doesn’t have to create a complex business plan to do it. Here is some advice for small businesses about
word-of-mouth advertising.
● Be prepared to talk about your company at any time. You never know who you will meet. Always carry
business cards.
● Only say good things about your company. Don’t say bad things about your competition.
● Help other companies by recommending people to them. The more you help others, the more good luck
will come back to you and that’s good business.
36．Why do some companies spend lots of money on advertisements
A．To make their products very useful.
B．To make the environment beautiful.
C．To tell people the names of their companies.
D．To attract people to their products.
37．Which of the following may be a word-of-mouth advertising
A．Telling people how good the product is on TV.
B．Recommending the product you like to your friends.
C．Telling people the product is the best in the newspaper.
D．Showing people how popular the product is on the Internet.
38．What does the underlined word “unconvincing” in Paragraph 4 probably mean
A．Uncomfortable.B．Unimportant. C．Unbelievable. D．Unusual.
39．What might NO-AD companies do according to the passage
A．Create complex business plans.
B．Say bad things about other companies.
C．Provide cheaper products for customers.
D．Help other companies by wishing them good luck.
40．The writer writes the passage to ________.
A．find out the value of making advertisements
B．introduce people a new way of advertising
C．tell people to care more about advertisements
D．show how to sell products by advertising on TV
【答案】36．D 37．B 38．C 39．C 40．B
【分析】在现在这个世界，到处都可以看到广告。但是有一些公司它们不做广告，它们通过口碑来赢得人
们的信赖，推销自己的产品或服务。这种宣传形式有很多的优点。
36．细节理解题。根据短文第一段 Billions of dollars are spent on it every year, so it must be important. After
all, it’s a busy world. You have to advertise to get people’s attention to sell products!可知，很多公司花费大量的
钱做广告，目的是让人们了解并购买他们的产品。故选 D。
37．细节理解题。根据短文第三段“Word-of-mouth advertising” happens when one person tells another about a
good experience with a product or service. That next person then tells another friend, family member, or colleague
(同事). And so a chain of information is created 可知，“口碑广告”就是一个人向另一个人讲述一种产品或服务
的良好体验，那个人在告诉另一个朋友、家人或同事。故选 B。
38．词义猜测题。根据语境 Although they say things like “Studies show that our product is the best,” or
“Everyone loves this product,” it can sound unconvincing.“尽管他们说‘研究表明我们的产品是最好的’或者‘每
个人都喜欢用这个产品’之类的话，但这听起来并不能……”，两句话之间是转折关系，unconvincing 意为“不

A few days ago, I received a letter from my Aunt Lorraine.
It was a handwritten letter 16 me for some Shanghai cookies I had sent her. Aunt Lorraine is
ninety-one years old and she has wonderful 17 . That is why she sent me the “thank you” letter. She also
has wonderful handwriting. Her penmanship (书法) is smooth. Each letter and word is perfectly formed. It is a
18 to read.
Aunt Lorraine was educated half a century ago. At that time, penmanship was 19 an important skill.
Now, it is the age of e-mail and social media. 20 people have the time or want to practice their
penmanship or write letters by hand.
This is unfortunate. In my opinion, good penmanship still counts. This is especially true in school. If you
want to get good grades on your article, beautiful handwriting will be important. Your article might be full of
good ideas. However, 21 handwriting can turn an A into a B．Awful handwriting can get you a D!
Good penmanship has other benefits (益处), too. 22 it’s a skill, it trains your brain and develops
your learning abilities. It also helps you organize your thoughts. And, believe it or not, that slow process (过程) of
pushing a pen 23 paper improves your reading, spelling and even your pronunciation of English.
Apart from all these educational benefits, good penmanship also has 24 benefits. A beautifully
written letter to a friend is something he or she will treasure forever. A letter that looks as if a chicken had danced
across the paper will be quickly 25 . I have kept the letter from my Aunt Lorraine. It's a great treasure!

A
Mr. Wu is showing his classmates how to make pressed flowers（押花）.
Start here
Step 1: Carefully pick a few flowers in a place where you are allowed. Do not take too many! Pick them later
in the day and when the weather is fine so they’re not wet from rain.
Step 2: Open a heavy book and lay a piece of blotting paper（吸水纸）inside. Place your flowers “face”
down to keep the petals（花瓣）nice and flat. You could press some “sideways” for a different result. Then place
another piece of blotting paper on top.
Step 3: Carefully close the book and place more heavy books on top. Put them in a warm place. Check on
your flowers every few days and change the blotting paper if it’s wet. It should take about 2—4 weeks for your
flowers to fully dry.
Pressed Flower Works
Once they’re dry, you can make some amazing art from your flowers. PVA glue is the best thing to stick
them with.
◆Cool Cards
Stick pressed flowers to the cards and give them to your friends and family as presents.
◆Framed（框架的）Flowers
Organize them on paper and frame them! Double-sided glass frames look great, too.
◆Candle Holders
Use PVA glue to stick them to the outside of empty glass jars. Then add a few layers of PVA on top. Once
dry, use as tea-light holders.
Tips
Large flowers such as bluebells or dandelions take longer to dry out. The flowers will keep their colour better
if you press them soon after picking.
26．What’s Mr. Wu’s course about
A．P.E. B．DIY. C．Biology. D．Painting.
27．To make a candle holder with pressed flowers, Shelly needs flowers, books, blotting paper, ________.
A．glass and tea B．glue and a jar C．glass and a light D．glue and a candle
28．What can we know about pressed flowers according to the passage
A．Making pressed flowers is a traditional Chinese art.
B．Small flowers dry more easily and keep colour better.
C．We can press flowers sideways on the paper to dry fully.
D．Glue is used in all the three pieces of pressed flower works.
B
Making a deer out of paper without cutting or using glue sounds impossible. But for Du Jialei, paper can be
folded (折) into anything. There is no limit to his imagination.
Du, 23, is a student from Shanghai University. He won third place at the ninth IOIO (国际折纸奥林匹克) in
February this year. A total of 803 competitors from 59 countries and areas took part in this year’s event.
Du discovered his interest in folding paper in his childhood. After Du went to college in 2017, he had enough
time to take the hobby seriously. He learned folding from online teachers and experts. Later he copied patterns
from books. He spent almost three years improving his basic skills by making copies of other artists’ designs.
Then he made his own creations.
For Du, folding paper develops his ability to pay attention to both the bigger picture and the details. He is
creative as he has been challenging himself to make original (原创的) works.

Resting her phone on a stand and making the light more suitable, 49-year-old Lyu Min started her
livestreaming session — her daily job during the COVID-19 outbreak. Dressed in a qipao, a traditional Chinese
dress, Lyu started the livestreaming session from her workshop at 10 in the morning, sharing the art of making
Chinese knots with many handicraft(手工艺) lovers. Lyu, an inheritor(继承人) of the art of making Chinese knots,
which is listed as an intangible(非物质) cultural heritage, became a livestreaming host.
“Though the sales of Chinese knots have dropped a lot, I’m still confident that I can get out of the trouble
brought by the outbreak. I can make full use of this period to improve my skills and develop this traditional
handicraft online,” she said. Lyu is quite new to the world of livestreaming, having bought all the necessary
equipment(设备 ) after following her friends advice. She practises livestreaming every day and records a large
number of educational videos. As face-to-face interaction is still impractical for many, even as the outbreak has
been largely brought under control in China, she thinks livestreaming classes can meet more Chinese knot lovers’
needs to learn the handicraft.
She has integrated the anti-epidemic spirit into her works, expressing the determination( 决 心 ) and
confidence of the Chinese people to win against the COVID-19. “I love Wuhan, where I showed my works in
2019. Chinese knots are popular among many local people, and I made lots of friends there,” Lyu said. She
designed a special Chinese knot to express her thanks to the medics who were sent to support Wuhan several
months ago.
She has more than 200 followers right now. There are more and more Chinese knot lovers on her online
platform. She is using a length of colored string and determination to keep this traditional art of Chinese knots
alive online and help more people understand the culture.

Advertisements are everywhere, TV, newspapers, magazines and of course, on the Internet. Is advertisement
really necessary Billions of dollars are spent on it every year, so it must be important. After all, it’s a busy world.
You have to advertise to get people’s attention to sell products!
Not every company thinks that way, however. The NO-AD company doesn’t advertise in traditional ways. It
sells its products by word of mouth. In this way, they can save money and keep costs down, which makes their
products cheaper for customers.
“Word-of-mouth advertising” happens when one person tells another about a good experience with a product
or service. That next person then tells another friend, family member, or colleague (同事 ). And so a chain of
information is created.
Usually, advertisers talk about how good their product is. Although they say things like “Studies show that
our product is the best,” or “Everyone loves this product,” it can sound unconvincing. It’s much more believable
to hear about a product from a family member or friend who has used it and liked it. Our loved ones’ opinions are
very important to us, so we often listen to their advice about a product.
Word-of-mouth advertising has other advantages, too. It’s cost-effective (after all, it’s free) and a company
doesn’t have to create a complex business plan to do it. Here is some advice for small businesses about
word-of-mouth advertising.
● Be prepared to talk about your company at any time. You never know who you will meet. Always carry
business cards.
● Only say good things about your company. Don’t say bad things about your competition.
● Help other companies by recommending people to them. The more you help others, the more good luck
will come back to you and that’s good business.
36．Why do some companies spend lots of money on advertisements
A．To make their products very useful.

A．Telling people how good the product is on TV.
B．Recommending the product you like to your friends.
C．Telling people the product is the best in the newspaper.
D．Showing people how popular the product is on the Internet.
38．What does the underlined word “unconvincing” in Paragraph 4 probably mean
A．Uncomfortable.B．Unimportant. C．Unbelievable. D．Unusual.
39．What might NO-AD companies do according to the passage
A．Create complex business plans.

The folk art form, kuaiban, which has a long history, can be performed by a group or a single person. With
one or two pairs of bamboo clappers — a kind of traditional Chinese musical instrument in their hands, the
performers tell stories in the local dialect (方言). These stories are usually folk tales or about social life.
Recently, Liu Jiming and Wan Yifu made and shared three short videos by using kuaiban which were viewed
about 4 million times. As a result, Liu and Wan have gained more than 1 million followers on the Internet.
They’ve created many new works to raise people’s awareness. Some of their works are about the danger of
drunken driving and food safety. They also write stories to show respect to people who make contributions, such
as traffic policemen.
According to Liu and Wan, people can understand kuaiban pieces without difficulty. The stories told kuaiban
pieces are close to people’s daily lives. Thus, they consider that it is a fun way to introduce the Chinese folk
culture through kuaiban. And what matters to them is that both young people and old people begin to know the
charm of the art form, kuaiban, which may not be paid much attention to, compared to other traditional art forms.
Folk art forms, like xiangsheng, pingshu and kuaiban, share something in common. These traditional art
forms show the beauty and value of traditional Chinese culture so they should be known by more people and get
to more areas. Luckily, through the Internet, new performers who go on sharing kuaiban pieces like Liu and Wan
are playing an active role. Hopefully these Chinese folk art forms will be alive with the times.
