高一中国文化阅读说明文适中
【牛刀小试】
答案：1．spots 2．Covering 3．reached 4．that/which 5．approximately 6．are held 7．a 8．to 9．its 10．to experience
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍了黄姚古镇的位置、历史、特色等。
1. 考查名词的单复数。句意：黄姚古镇位于中国南部广西壮族自治区贺州市昭平县，距桂林200公里——广西最受欢迎的旅游胜地之一。因为spot 在此处表示“旅游胜地”，是可数名词，根据one of 可知本句使用了“one of+复数名词”结构，表示“……其中之一”，可推理出空白处应使用其复数形式，故填spots。
2. 考查非谓语动词。句意：黄姚占地3.6平方公里，拥有典型的喀斯特地貌和丰富的水资源。分析句子结构可知，逻辑主语Huangyao与cover之间为主动关系，所以用现在分词作状语， 故填Covering。
3. 考查一般过去时。句意：它在清朝（1644-1912）乾隆皇帝（1733-1735）统治下达到鼎盛时期。分析句子结构，空白处在句子中作谓语，根据时间状语during the Qing Dynasty可知动作发生在过去，应使用一般过去时，故填reached。
4. 考查定语从句。句意：因此，今天仍有许多清朝和明朝时期的建筑在建筑风格上保持不变。分析句子结构可知应填入关系代词引导定语从句并做主语，先行词是buildings，所以用关系代词which或that引导，故填which/that。
5. 考查副词用法。句意：现在它是大约300座民居、20座寺庙和祠堂以及10个戏台的所在地。根据空白处后面的数字可知，应填入副词修饰，故填approximately。
6. 考查被动语态。句意：在中国农历新年期间，将举行20多个传统表演，包括舞龙、舞狮和唢呐（中国小号）表演。分析句子结构，谓语动词hold 与主语performances 之间是被动关系，要使用被动语态，再根据上下文判断使用一般现在时，所以谓语动词使用一般现在时的被动语态，故填are held。
7. 考查冠词。句意：当你参观时，黄姚豆腐是一种必尝的当地美食，因为它只在黄姚制作和销售。因为dish 属于在本文中第一次提到，根据冠词的使用规则：第一次提到的人或物的名称前要使用不定冠词，故填a。
8. 考查介词。句意：此外，发酵的黑大豆经常被添加到当地的特色菜中，以创造独特的风味。add...to...为固定搭配，含义为“添加……到……”，符合句意，故填to。
9. 考查代词。句意：由于它的规模较小，通常需要一到两天的时间来游览这座古城。分析
句子结构可知应填入形容词性物主代词修饰名词size，故填its。
10. 考查非谓语动词。句意：但是你可以多待一段时间，体验更多的当地好客和文化。分析句子结构，空白处在句子中作状语表示目的，使用动词不定式，故填to experience。

黄姚古镇位于中国南方广西壮族自治区贺州市昭平县，距离广西最热门的旅游景点桂林200公里。据说这个小镇是以当时两个常见的姓氏黄和姚命名的。占地3.6平方公里，拥有典型的喀斯特地貌和丰富的水资源。
黄姚有近千年的历史，它的起源可以追溯到宋朝(960-1279)。在乾隆皇帝(1733-1735)统治下的清朝(1644-1912)，它达到了鼎盛时期。由于这个原因，有许多明清时期的建筑至今仍保持其建筑风格不变。现在这里有大约300座民宅，20座寺庙和祠堂，以及10个戏台。
传统节日和习俗已经延续了数百年。在中国农历新年期间，有20多种传统表演，包括舞龙、舞狮和唢呐(中国版小号)表演。
黄姚豆腐是你来这里必尝的当地美食，因为它是黄姚独家制作和销售的。此外，发酵黑豆经常被添加到当地特色菜中，以创造出独特的风味。
由于古城面积不大，通常需要一两天的时间来游览。但你可以多待一会儿，体验更多当地的热情好客和文化。
