However, with the development of technology, people now use 62 (cheap) and more easily made chemicals to make Thangga paints. The traditional paints took a lot of work and people always made 63 (they) in many secret ways.
Later people stopped 64 (make) the paints and forgot about them. So the old skills were 65 (complete) lost. It’ s a pity that the traditional Thangga paintings are difficult to find now.
【答案】
56．is found 57．a 58．to protect 59．and 60．by 61．hundreds 62．cheaper 63．them 64．making 65．completely
【导语】本文主要讲述了唐卡（Thangga）这种特殊绘画艺术。
56．句意：它现在只能在中国西藏找到。根据“only in Tibet, China now”可知句子描述的是现在的客观事实，且主语“It”与动词“find”之间是被动关系，要用一般现在时的被动语态，其结构为“am/is/are + 过去分词”，主语“It”是第三人称单数，be动词用“is”，“find”的过去分词是“found”。故填is found。
57．句意：唐卡画有着始于唐朝的悠久历史。根据“have... long history”可知，指“一段悠久的历史”，long首字母发辅音音素，所以用a。故填a。
58．句意：同时，中国政府也努力保护这门艺术。根据“tried hard”可知，“try to do sth.”是固定搭配，表示“努力做某事”，所以此处用动词不定式“to protect”。故to protect。
59．句意：由于西藏的特殊环境和艺术家们的精湛技艺，唐卡中使用的颜料与其他颜料不同。根据“the special environment of Tibet”和“the excellent skills of artists”可知前后是并列关系，用“and”连接。故填and。
60．句意：颜料是手工制作的。根据“hand”可知，此处考查“by hand”是固定短语，表示“用手工”。故填by。
61．句意：这些美丽的颜色可以持续数百年。根据“of years”可知，此处考查“hundreds of”是固定短语，表示“数百”。故填hundreds。
62．句意：然而，随着科技的发展，人们现在使用更便宜、更容易制作的化学物质来制作唐卡颜料。根据“more easily made chemicals”可知，此处要用“cheap”的比较级“cheaper”，与“more easily made”并列。故填cheaper。
63．句意：传统的颜料需要大量的工作，人们总是用许多秘密的方法来制作它们。根据“made”可知，此处要用代词宾格“them”作宾语，指代前面的“The traditional paints”。故填them。
64．句意：后来人们停止了制作颜料，忘记了它们。根据“stopped”可知，此处考查“stop doing sth.”是固定搭配，表示“停止做某事”，所以此处用动名词“making”。故填making。
65．句意：所以古老的技艺完全丧失了。根据“lost”可知，此处要用副词“completely”修饰动词，表示“完全地”。故填completely。

【答案】例文
Hello, everyone! I am Li Hua. I am glad that I have the chance to share my volunteer story with you.
Last month, our school organized a visit to a nursing home. We did some voluntary work there. The moment we arrived, we noticed that many elderly people suffered from loneliness. So, we actively chatted with them, always keeping warm eye contact and wearing friendly smiles. Besides chatting, we taught them to do simple exercises and make beautiful paper cutting. We brought joy and peace to their days and truly raised their spirits.
When volunteering, there are things to keep in mind. Always be patient and respectful. A kind word and a bright smile can easily pass on love and warmth. Let’s join hands to volunteer and live a more meaningful life!

My first job was writing a report about a sports project. It was hard for me, because I never wrote anything like that. Dad told me it was similar (相似的) in some ways to writing a story—getting information in the right order. With his help, I did a good job on my report. Sometimes the team didn’t use what I’d written or drawn, but I didn’t mind. I just told myself to do better the next time.
I’m now one of the editors (编辑). We think about what goes into the newspaper. We also correct mistakes in people’s articles (文章). I’m busy with these things every day, but I really enjoy doing them.
