A
In American English， when someone says he has to “face the music”， it does not mean he is going to a musical performance or a concert.
Imagine a friend asks you to take care of her beautiful sports car.She says， “Please do not drive it.It is an extremely fast car.”But you want to pretend the car is yours.So， you drive it around one night.As bad luck would have it， you lose control of the car and drive it into a stop sign.When your friend returns， you must “face the music”.It can be losing her friendship or paying for repairs to her car or both.
In 1851，the writer James Fenimore explained “face the music”.In a theater， the orchestra （管弦乐队） sits in front of the stage.So， actors on stage face the musicians.Many actors are very nervous， a condition called stage fright.They may want to run away.“Facing the music” means accepting it and not surrendering （屈服） to it.
Word experts say “face the music” may come from the army.A soldier could be forced out of the horse cavalry （骑兵团） because of the serious mistakes in the war.The army drummers would play a sad beat.The soldier would be seated backward on a horse and face the music of the drums.
To “take your medicine” is to accept the bad result from something you have done.And if someone says “You made your bed.Now lie in it”， he means you create a bad situation and you must deal with it.But it’s fun to “lie in the bed and enjoy music”.“Pay the piper” is also similar to “face the music”.

THE CHINESE WRITING SYSTEM①：
CONNECTING THE PAST AND THE PRESENT
China is widely known for② its ancient civilisation③ [1]which has continued all the way through into④ modern times， despite⑤ the many ups and downs⑥ in its history.There are many reasons [2]why this has been possible， but one of the main factors⑦ has been the Chinese writing system.
[1]此处是which引导的定语从句，修饰先行词its ancient civilisation，which在从句中作主语。
[2]此处是why引导的定语从句，修饰先行词reasons。
At the beginning⑧ ， written Chinese was a picture-based⑨ language.It dates back several thousand years to⑩ the use of longgu—animal bones and shells [3]on which symbols were carved by ancient Chinese people.Some of the ancient symbols can still be seen in today’s hanzi.
[3]此处是“介词on＋which”引导的定语从句，修饰先行词animal bones and shells。
[4]By the Shang Dynasty （around 1600－1046 BCE）， these symbols had become a well-developed writing system. Over the years， the system developed into different forms， [5]as it was a time when people were divided geographically， leading to many varieties of dialects and characters .This， however， changed under Emperor Qinshihuang of the Qin Dynasty （221－207 BCE）.
[4]“by＋过去的时间”作时间状语时，句子用过去完成时。
[5]as引导原因状语从句，该从句中when引导定语从句，修饰先行词a time； leading to ...是动词-ing短语作结果状语。
Emperor Qinshihuang united the seven major states into one unified country where the Chinese writing system began to develop in one direction.That writing system was of great importance in uniting the Chinese people and culture.Even today， [6]no matter where Chinese people live or what dialect they speak， they can all still communicate in writing.
[6]no matter where Chinese people live是no matter where引导的让步状语从句；or what dialect they speak是省略了no matter的让步状语从句。
Written Chinese has also become an important means [7]by which China’s present is connected with its past.People in modern times can read the classic works [8]which were written by Chinese in ancient times.The high regard for the Chinese writing system can be seen in the development of Chinese characters as an art form， known as Chinese calligraphy ， [9] which has become an important part of Chinese culture.
[7]此处是“介词by＋which”引导的定语从句，修饰先行词an important means。
[8][9]都是which引导的定语从句，which在从句中作主语。
Today， the Chinese writing system is still an important part of Chinese culture.[10]As China plays a greater role in global affairs ， an increasing number of international students are beginning to appreciate China’s culture and history through this amazing language.
[10]此处是as引导的时间状语从句，as意为“随着……”。

【参考译文】
汉语书写体系：连接过去与现在
尽管历史跌宕起伏，中国因其古代文明一直延续至今而闻名于世。其存续的原因颇多，但主要因素之一是汉字的书写体系。
汉字在最初是一种基于图形的语言。它可以追溯到数千年前使用龙骨的时期——古代中国人在这些骨头和壳上面刻画简单的符号。这些符号在今天的汉字中仍然可以看到。
到商朝（约公元前1600－前1046年）时，这些符号已经演变成一套成熟的书写体系。在随后的年代里，这一体系发展成不同的形式，这是由于当时中国人居住地域的分隔，从而导致不同的方言和汉字变体的产生。然而，这在秦朝（公元前221－前207年）秦始皇统治时期发生了变化。
秦始皇统一七个诸侯国后，在这个统一的国家里，汉字书写体系开始朝着一个方向发展。这个书写体系对于中国人民与中国文化的统一具有非凡的意义。即使在今天，不论住在哪里，也不论说何种方言，中国人都仍能通过书写（文字）进行交流。
汉字也成为连接中国现在与过去的一个重要媒介。现代中国人可以阅读古代中国人撰写的经典作品。中国人对其书写体系推崇备至，这体现在汉字发展为一种艺术形式——书法。书法已经成为中国文化的一个重要组成部分。
今天，汉字仍然是中国文化的重要组成部分。随着中国在全球事务中扮演着更为重要的角色，越来越多的国际学生开始通过汉语这一奇妙的语言了解和欣赏中国的文化和历史。

汉语书写体系：连接过去与现在
尽管历史跌宕起伏，中国因其古代文明一直延续至今而闻名于
世。其存续的原因颇多，但主要因素之一是汉字的书写体系。
汉字在最初是一种基于图形的语言。它可以追溯到数千年前使用
龙骨的时期——古代中国人在这些骨头和壳上面刻画简单的符号。这
些符号在今天的汉字中仍然可以看到。
到商朝（约公元前1600－前1046年）时，这些符号已经演变成一
套成熟的书写体系。在随后的年代里，这一体系发展成不同的形式，
这是由于当时中国人居住地域的分隔，从而导致不同的方言和汉字变
体的产生。然而，这在秦朝（公元前221－前207年）秦始皇统治时期
发生了变化。
秦始皇统一七个诸侯国后，在这个统一的国家里，汉字书写体系
开始朝着一个方向发展。这个书写体系对于中国人民与中国文化的统

Ⅰ.阅读理解
A
In American English， when someone says he has to “face the
music”， it does not mean he is going to a musical performance or a
concert.
Imagine a friend asks you to take care of her beautiful sports car.She
says， “Please do not drive it.It is an extremely fast car.”But you want to
pretend the car is yours.So， you drive it around one night.As bad luck
would have it， you lose control of the car and drive it into a stop
sign.When your friend returns， you must “face the music”.It can be losing
her friendship or paying for repairs to her car or both.
In 1851，the writer James Fenimore explained “face the music”.In a
theater， the orchestra （管弦乐队） sits in front of the stage.So， actors
on stage face the musicians.Many actors are very nervous， a condition
called stage fright.They may want to run away.“Facing the music” means
accepting and not surrendering （屈服） to it.
Word experts say “face the music” may come from the army.A soldier
could be forced out of the horse cavalry （骑兵团） because of the serious
mistakes in the war.The army drummers would play a sad beat.The soldier
would be seated backward on a horse and face the music of the drums.
it
To “take your medicine” is to accept the bad result from something
you have done.And if someone says “You made your bed.Now lie in it”，
he means you create a bad situation and you must deal with it.But it’s fun
to “lie in the bed and enjoy music”.“Pay the piper” is also similar to “face
the music”.

际意义却并非如此的短语。“face the music”就是一个很好的例子。

（屈服） to it可知，许多演员很紧张，也就是怯场。他们可能会想
临阵脱逃。face the music意味着承受怯场心理而不是妥协。

There is increased understanding of Chinese vocabulary and concepts
outside China， and more Chinese words are being used in the English
language， according to a recent report.
Shaolin， a form of Chinese kung fu， was listed as the most
recognised Chinese word， according to a report issued by the China
Foreign Languages Publishing Administration （CFLPA） on Saturday.
Top ten list words and concepts also included： “yinyang” “yuan”
“gugong” “nihao” “wushu” “qi” “qigong” “renminbi” and “majiang or
mahjong”.
Chinese concepts listed among the top 100 include Chinese traditional
festivals， soft power， economic， scientific and technological
development， such as “a community with a shared future” “Belt and
Road” “Alipay” and “Chang’e lunar probes”.
China Central Television （CCTV） said that many Chinese words
which were translated into English in the past have now been replaced by
the pinyin， such as “jiaozi” replacing “dumpling” and “mantou” replacing
“steamed bun”.
Words about the Spring Festival have also been often searched on
English-language websites in recent years， including “chunlian”， the
Spring Festival couplets， “chunyun”， the Spring Festival travel rush，
“chunwan”， the CCTV New Year’s Gala， and “hongbao”， red
envelopes containing money.
“The festival is now being celebrated in more countries around the
world，” CCTV said， “adding that Chinese elements have also been used
by leading fashion designers， including dragon， phoenix and peony
designs， as well as the Chinese zodiac animals （生肖）.”
The report came from surveys in eight major English-speaking
countries， and also calculated data （数据） of more than 300 Chinese
vocabulary entries which appeared on the main websites in English-
speaking countries.
