When people think of Beijing, the hutong style always comes to mind. It is no exaggeration (夸张) to say within hutongs lives the city's history.
The word “hutong” referred to a place where people live, which was borrowed from the Mongolian word to mean “water well” about 700 years ago. Hutongs we see today are made up of small paths formed by walls of siheyuan. They were built during the Yuan, Ming and Qing Dynasties.
When the People's Republic of China was founded in 1949, there were more than 3,000 hutongs. Most of the city's population lived in this traditional housing. But with the modernization of the city in the 1980s and early 1990s, many hutongs were pulled down to build roads, skyscrapers and modern houses.
The government has recognized the importance of hutongs to Chinese cultural heritage. In 2002, Beijing listed 40 protected historical zones and increased its efforts to rebuild some key relics and older streets in the city. Nearly 500 hutongs have survived.
Hutongs that still exist are like oases (绿洲) of calm in the noisy city. Walking through them, it's common to see groups of elderly people sitting together playing cards, mahjong (麻将) or Chinese chess. In the early mornings and evenings, they gather to practice traditional forms of exercise such as Taijiquan as well as dancing and singing folk songs or Peking Opera. Hutongs have become a museum of Beijing's folk customs and history.
24.What is the purpose of Paragraph 2?(  )
A.To add background information of hutongs.
B.To bring in the topic of the context.
C.To stress the importance of hutongs.
D.To introduce the benefits of hutongs.
25.What happened to hutongs in Beijing in 2002?(  )
A.More hutongs were built.
B.Lots of hutongs disappeared.
C.Most hutongs became historical zones.
D.Some hutongs were placed under protection.
26.What does the last paragraph mainly talk about?(  )
A.The future of hutongs.
B.The change of hutongs.
C.The beauty of hutong life.
D.The history of hutong life.
27.What is the author's attitude towards hutong protection?(  )
A.Negative. B.Unclear.
C.Supportive. D.Doubtful.
C
Humans have lived in cities for around 5,000 years. These cities were unlike modern cities, but still organized places meant for many people to live together peacefully. So, what was life like in the earliest cities created by humankind Using modern technology, scientific explorers have discovered some answers.
The Indus Valley civilization existed from about 3300-1700 BCE, roughly 5,320 to 3,720 years ago. Also known as the Harappan civilization, the Indus Valley civilization was one of the world's earliest urban civilizations. At the same time, the civilizations of ancient Mesopotamia, Egypt, and China were also prosperous. The Harappan civilization was located in South Asia, in what is now Pakistan and northwest India.
Although the Harappans had a written language, scholars today cannot decipher the text. As a result, most of what is known about Harappans comes from the ruins of their two largest cities: Harappa and Mohenjo-daro. Both cities cover less than 2.6 square kilometers, or one square mile. This is much smaller than modern cities. For example, in the United States, Central Park in New York City alone has an area of 1.3 square miles. The cities had an estimated population of around 40,000 each.
The cities were located about 644 kilometers, or 400 miles, from one another and were similar in layout. Scholars believe the Harappans used the position of the rising sun and moon to determine their cities' geography. One significant feature of Harappan cities was their highly developed systems for supplying water and removing waste. In Mohenjo-daro, about 700 wells supplied water to the city's buildings.
Explorers continue to investigate the Harappan civilization. Since 1986, they have made many important discoveries. Artifacts (手工艺品) are displayed at the National Museum in New Delhi, India, and in museums throughout the world.
28.What can we learn about the Harappan civilization from Paragraph 2?(  )
A.It dates from thousands of years ago.
B.It belongs to the Indus Valley civilization.
C.It was the only urban civilization then.
D.It was located in what is now China.
29.What does the underlined word “decipher” mean in Paragraph 3?(  )
A.Select. B.Understand.
C.Draft. D.Recite.
30.What is a notable feature of Harappan cities mentioned in the text?(  )
A.Modern designs and tall buildings.
B.Large parks and entertainment areas.
C.Advanced water and waste systems.
D.Huge areas and large populations.
31.Where can the text be found?(  )
A.In a novel. B.In an art magazine.
C.In a biography. D.In a history journal.

As an example of intangible cultural heritage, Jiaonan New Year prints incorporate the features of traditional Chinese New Year paintings with the artistic touch of Gongbi paintings and paper cutting. “Intangible cultural heritage can best be appreciated and passed down to future generations only if it integrates modern aesthetics and is suited to today's life,” said Tian Sheng, one of inheritors of the art.
According to Chai Zhanzhu, an inheritor of jiaotai ci, or “twisted clay porcelain”, the vitality of intangible cultural heritage lies in innovation. “Innovation is our focus in carrying forward the technique,” Chai said. “In the past, the art was mostly used to create feather and chrysanthemum (菊花) patterns. Now, landscapes, figures, flowers and birds can also be twisted into finished pieces.”
Chai and his fellow craftsmen are also working with universities to improve both the clay used and the techniques to glaze it, and have registered a number of patents. His village now has six companies, one professional cooperative and 20 family workshops engaged in the production, processing, sale and research into the tradition, and more young artisans are learning traditional skills and reaching larger audiences with their art.
In central China's Henan Province, 32 year old Chang Yangyang is a papercut artist and a vlogger with over 340,000 followers on Douyin, the Chinese version of TikTok. “Social media has created a bridge between people and the traditional culture in which they have an interest,” Chang said. Apart from livestreaming himself making papercuts, Chang also sells papercuts online, with pieces depicting everything from traditional Chinese customs to international soccer stars. “I hope to show the art to more people, instill a love of paper cutting, and further promote the art,” he said.
32.The underlined word “incorporate” can be best replaced by “________”.(  )
A.fill B.cover
C.combine D.conclude
33.What is the key in promoting jiaotai ci according to Chai?(  )
A.His fellow craftsmen.
B.His village.
C.Young artisans.
D.Innovation.
34.What's Chang's attitude towards social media?(  )
A.Highly valued. B.Neutral.
C.Disliked. D.Cautious.
35.Which of the following art is not mentioned in this passage?(  )
A.Papercut.
B.Chinese New Year paintings.
C.Jiaonan New Year prints.
D.Calligraphy.

In China, traveling by train is a common way to visit new places and go back to one's hometown during holidays. 36(____) It wasn't always that way, though.
37(____) Later, many railway companies started up and competed with each other to build new railway routes. Trains became a symbol of progress, with New York City's Grand Central Station becoming a major cultural landmark (地标). 38(____) For example, Johnny Cash wrote a song called Folsom Prison Blues.
But little by little, railways were replaced by highways as “car culture” took over the US. China would go on to use trains even more widely. 39(____) It allows people to travel fast with ease. This is especially obvious during Chunyun, when China's train stations are crowded with thousands of people who are trying to get home.
I had never traveled by train until I moved to China. My first trip by train was from Beijing to Tianjin by high speed train. It was amazing how quickly I could get there—just half an hour. Since then, I've taken the train to lots of other cities—Shanghai, Chongqing and Shenzhen. It's always a good time. 40(____) And for some reason, even instant noodles taste better on the train than they do anywhere else.

B.The US railway system started to grow in 1826.

Every Thanksgiving Day for nine years, Peter, a poor man, sat down in the New York City park, waiting for an old gentleman who would invite him to eat a big meal. But this Thanksgiving Day Peter wasn't hungry. He was lucky. A lady often helped the poor on this day and she had served too much food to him. He had eaten so big a meal that he had almost no power to move. So he sat there, very full and his breath almost stopped.
At the time, an old gentleman was coming toward Peter's seat. Every Thanksgiving Day the old gentleman came there and then led Peter to a restaurant and watched him eating. Feeding Peter once a year was a tradition. “I can give thanks on this day. I'll give you a meal that will surely make your body feel as strong as your mind,” said the old gentleman. Always before those words had been music in Peter's ear.But now he looked up at the old gentleman's face with tears of suffering in his eyes. But the old gentleman didn't see Peter's eyes. Peter wondered why the old gentleman seemed sad as he spoke.
The old gentleman was thin and tall. His hair was whiter and thinner than last year. He had no family and he just thought Peter was his relative. He lived alone in an old house near the park. His eyes were bright with pleasure. Peter finally nodded and accepted the invitation. Peter was too full to eat but he understood that he was a part of the tradition.
The old gentleman led Peter to the same restaurant. He sat at the table silently. Today, it was strange that he kept staring at Peter's food as if he were very hungry. Peter began to eat. The turkey and all the other food were gone almost as quickly as they appeared. Peter saw the look of happiness on the old gentleman's face. After an hour, the big meal was finished.
“Thank you!” Peter said weakly. He stood up heavily and started to go. They said goodbye as they did each year. The old gentleman went away first.
注意:
1.续写词数应为150个左右;
2.请按如下格式在相应位置作答。
Peter suddenly fell and then was picked up and taken to a hospital.                                                                                                                                                                                          After finishing examining the two patients, the two doctors met and they talked about the causes of their sickness.

When people think of Beijing, the hutong style always comes to mind. It is no exaggeration (夸张) to say within hutongs lives the city's history.
The word “hutong” referred to a place where people live, which was borrowed from the Mongolian word to mean “water well” about 700 years ago. Hutongs we see today are made up of small paths formed by walls of siheyuan. They were built during the Yuan, Ming and Qing Dynasties.
When the People's Republic of China was founded in 1949, there were more than 3,000 hutongs. Most of the city's population lived in this traditional housing. But with the modernization of the city in the 1980s and early 1990s, many hutongs were pulled down to build roads, skyscrapers and modern houses.
The government has recognized the importance of hutongs to Chinese cultural heritage. In 2002, Beijing listed 40 protected historical zones and increased its efforts to rebuild some key relics and older streets in the city. Nearly 500 hutongs have survived.
Hutongs that still exist are like oases (绿洲) of calm in the noisy city. Walking through them, it's common to see groups of elderly people sitting together playing cards, mahjong (麻将) or Chinese chess. In the early mornings and evenings, they gather to practice traditional forms of exercise such as Taijiquan as well as dancing and singing folk songs or Peking Opera. Hutongs have become a museum of Beijing's folk customs and history.

Humans have lived in cities for around 5,000 years. These cities were unlike modern cities, but still organized places meant for many people to live together peacefully. So, what was life like in the earliest cities created by humankind Using modern technology, scientific explorers have discovered some answers.
The Indus Valley civilization existed from about 3300-1700 BCE, roughly 5,320 to 3,720 years ago. Also known as the Harappan civilization, the Indus Valley civilization was one of the world's earliest urban civilizations. At the same time, the civilizations of ancient Mesopotamia, Egypt, and China were also prosperous. The Harappan civilization was located in South Asia, in what is now Pakistan and northwest India.
Although the Harappans had a written language, scholars today cannot decipher the text. As a result, most of what is known about Harappans comes from the ruins of their two largest cities: Harappa and Mohenjo-daro. Both cities cover less than 2.6 square kilometers, or one square mile. This is much smaller than modern cities. For example, in the United States, Central Park in New York City alone has an area of 1.3 square miles. The cities had an estimated population of around 40,000 each.
The cities were located about 644 kilometers, or 400 miles, from one another and were similar in layout. Scholars believe the Harappans used the position of the rising sun and moon to determine their cities' geography. One significant feature of Harappan cities was their highly developed systems for supplying water and removing waste. In Mohenjo-daro, about 700 wells supplied water to the city's buildings.
Explorers continue to investigate the Harappan civilization. Since 1986, they have made many important discoveries. Artifacts (手工艺品) are displayed at the National Museum in New Delhi, India, and in museums throughout the world.

As an example of intangible cultural heritage, Jiaonan New Year prints incorporate the features of traditional Chinese New Year paintings with the artistic touch of Gongbi paintings and paper cutting. “Intangible cultural heritage can best be appreciated and passed down to future generations only if it integrates modern aesthetics and is suited to today's life,” said Tian Sheng, one of inheritors of the art.
According to Chai Zhanzhu, an inheritor of jiaotai ci, or “twisted clay porcelain”, the vitality of intangible cultural heritage lies in innovation. “Innovation is our focus in carrying forward the technique,” Chai said. “In the past, the art was mostly used to create feather and chrysanthemum (菊花) patterns. Now, landscapes, figures, flowers and birds can also be twisted into finished pieces.”
Chai and his fellow craftsmen are also working with universities to improve both the clay used and the techniques to glaze it, and have registered a number of patents. His village now has six companies, one professional cooperative and 20 family workshops engaged in the production, processing, sale and research into the tradition, and more young artisans are learning traditional skills and reaching larger audiences with their art.
In central China's Henan Province, 32 year old Chang Yangyang is a papercut artist and a vlogger with over 340,000 followers on Douyin, the Chinese version of TikTok. “Social media has created a bridge between people and the traditional culture in which they have an interest,” Chang said. Apart from livestreaming himself making papercuts, Chang also sells papercuts online, with pieces depicting everything from traditional Chinese customs to international soccer stars. “I hope to show the art to more people, instill a love of paper cutting, and further promote the art,” he said.

解析:考查冠词。此处泛指“一份工作”,应用不定冠词,且easy的发音以元音音素开头。故填an。
61.答案:weight
解析:考查词性转换。in weight意为“在重量上;按重量”,为固定搭配。故填weight。
62.答案:It
解析:考查代词。句意:整个工程总共花了20年才完成。此处用it作形式主语,真正的主语是后面的动词不定式短语to finish the whole project。句首单词首字母应大写。故填It。
63.答案:successful
解析:考查词性转换。此处修饰名词relocation,应用形容词successful,表示“成功的”。故填successful。
64.答案:contributed
解析:考查动词的时态。根据时间状语“in 1965”可知,本句的时态为一般过去时。故填contributed。
65.答案:being destroyed
解析:考查非谓语动词。介词from后应用动名词,且destroy和cultural heritage sites之间是被动关系,应用动名词的被动形式。故填being destroyed。

Located in Southwest China, Sichuan Province has many world famous places of interest. My family trip to Jiuzhaigou, a nature reserve in Sichuan, still remains fresh in my memory.
Stepping onto the magical land, I was totally stunned by its multi level waterfalls and lakes of amazing colors: crystal clear, blue green and dark green. Creatures were living in harmony with nature there. As we walked deeper, we even saw rare animals like giant pandas and golden monkeys.
All in all, a trip to Sichuan is highly recommended and it is well worth another visit.

Every Thanksgiving Day for nine years, Peter, a poor man, sat down in the New York City park, waiting for an old gentleman who would invite him to eat a big meal. But this Thanksgiving Day Peter wasn't hungry. He was lucky. A lady often helped the poor on this day and she had served too much food to him. He had eaten so big a meal that he had almost no power to move. So he sat there, very full and his breath almost stopped.
At the time, an old gentleman was coming toward Peter's seat. Every Thanksgiving Day the old gentleman came there and then led Peter to a restaurant and watched him eating. Feeding Peter once a year was a tradition. “I can give thanks on this day. I'll give you a meal that will surely make your body feel as strong as your mind,” said the old gentleman. Always before those words had been music in Peter's ear.But now he looked up at the old gentleman's face with tears of suffering in his eyes. But the old gentleman didn't see Peter's eyes. Peter wondered why the old gentleman seemed sad as he spoke.
The old gentleman was thin and tall. His hair was whiter and thinner than last year. He had no family and he just thought Peter was his relative. He lived alone in an old house near the park. His eyes were bright with pleasure. Peter finally nodded and accepted the invitation. Peter was too full to eat but he understood that he was a part of the tradition.
The old gentleman led Peter to the same restaurant. He sat at the table silently. Today, it was strange that he kept staring at Peter's food as if he were very hungry. Peter began to eat. The turkey and all the other food were gone almost as quickly as they appeared. Peter saw the look of happiness on the old gentleman's face. After an hour, the big meal was finished.
“Thank you!” Peter said weakly. He stood up heavily and started to go. They said goodbye as they did each year. The old gentleman went away first.
注意:
1.续写词数应为150个左右;
2.请按如下格式在相应位置作答。
Peter suddenly fell and then was picked up and taken to a hospital.                                                                                                                                                                                          After finishing examining the two patients, the two doctors met and they talked about the causes of their sickness.

Peter suddenly fell and then was picked up and taken to a hospital. Peter was put on a bed, and a doctor began to try to discover what strange sickness had made him fall. Strangely, ten minutes later, the old gentleman was brought to the same hospital as well. He was put on another bed, and another doctor began to try to discover what his sickness could be. The two doctors carefully checked the two patients.
After finishing examining the two patients, the two doctors met and they talked about the causes of their sickness. Actually, the nice old gentleman had nothing to eat for three days. He was too hungry and almost starved to death. But he managed to save enough money to invite Peter to go to the same restaurant to eat. Meanwhile, Peter was too full and almost died from overeating. They just kept the tradition that every Thanksgiving Day the gentleman invited Peter to eat a big meal. They almost lost their lives for the sake of the tradition, which sounded ridiculous. However, they were friends and found comfort from each other.

He became a star throughout Asia and went on to have hits around the world. He is also a film director and producer. When his parents moved to Australia, seven year old Chan was left behind to study at the China Drama Academy, a Peking Opera school. For 10 years, he studied and obeyed strict rules. He appeared in his first film when he was eight. On graduation in 1971, Chan found work in movies, including Fist of Fury starring Bruce Lee. After Lee's death in 1973, Chan was thought likely to succeed him. But he was not a big success at that time, so he decided to create his own style. Later, he became the highest paid actor in Hong Kong. In the 1980s, Chan tried his luck in Hollywood with little success. However, in 1995, Rumble in the Bronx became his first hit in North America. He scored another hit with Rush Hour in 1998.

When people think of Beijing, the hutong style always comes to mind. It is no exaggeration (夸张) to say within hutongs lives the city's history.
The word “hutong” referred to a place where people live, which was borrowed from the Mongolian word to mean “water well” about 700 years ago. Hutongs we see today are made up of small paths formed by walls of siheyuan. They were built during the Yuan, Ming and Qing Dynasties.
When the People's Republic of China was founded in 1949, there were more than 3,000 hutongs. Most of the city's population lived in this traditional housing. But with the modernization of the city in the 1980s and early 1990s, many hutongs were pulled down to build roads, skyscrapers and modern houses.
The government has recognized the importance of hutongs to Chinese cultural heritage. In 2002, Beijing listed 40 protected historical zones and increased its efforts to rebuild some key relics and older streets in the city. Nearly 500 hutongs have survived.
Hutongs that still exist are like oases (绿洲) of calm in the noisy city. Walking through them, it's common to see groups of elderly people sitting together playing cards, mahjong (麻将) or Chinese chess. In the early mornings and evenings, they gather to practice traditional forms of exercise such as Taijiquan as well as dancing and singing folk songs or Peking Opera. Hutongs have become a museum of Beijing's folk customs and history.

Humans have lived in cities for around 5,000 years. These cities were unlike modern cities, but still organized places meant for many people to live together peacefully. So, what was life like in the earliest cities created by humankind Using modern technology, scientific explorers have discovered some answers.
The Indus Valley civilization existed from about 3300-1700 BCE, roughly 5,320 to 3,720 years ago. Also known as the Harappan civilization, the Indus Valley civilization was one of the world's earliest urban civilizations. At the same time, the civilizations of ancient Mesopotamia, Egypt, and China were also prosperous. The Harappan civilization was located in South Asia, in what is now Pakistan and northwest India.
Although the Harappans had a written language, scholars today cannot decipher the text. As a result, most of what is known about Harappans comes from the ruins of their two largest cities: Harappa and Mohenjo-daro. Both cities cover less than 2.6 square kilometers, or one square mile. This is much smaller than modern cities. For example, in the United States, Central Park in New York City alone has an area of 1.3 square miles. The cities had an estimated population of around 40,000 each.
The cities were located about 644 kilometers, or 400 miles, from one another and were similar in layout. Scholars believe the Harappans used the position of the rising sun and moon to determine their cities' geography. One significant feature of Harappan cities was their highly developed systems for supplying water and removing waste. In Mohenjo-daro, about 700 wells supplied water to the city's buildings.
Explorers continue to investigate the Harappan civilization. Since 1986, they have made many important discoveries. Artifacts (手工艺品) are displayed at the National Museum in New Delhi, India, and in museums throughout the world.

As an example of intangible cultural heritage, Jiaonan New Year prints incorporate the features of traditional Chinese New Year paintings with the artistic touch of Gongbi paintings and paper cutting. “Intangible cultural heritage can best be appreciated and passed down to future generations only if it integrates modern aesthetics and is suited to today's life,” said Tian Sheng, one of inheritors of the art.
According to Chai Zhanzhu, an inheritor of jiaotai ci, or “twisted clay porcelain”, the vitality of intangible cultural heritage lies in innovation. “Innovation is our focus in carrying forward the technique,” Chai said. “In the past, the art was mostly used to create feather and chrysanthemum (菊花) patterns. Now, landscapes, figures, flowers and birds can also be twisted into finished pieces.”
Chai and his fellow craftsmen are also working with universities to improve both the clay used and the techniques to glaze it, and have registered a number of patents. His village now has six companies, one professional cooperative and 20 family workshops engaged in the production, processing, sale and research into the tradition, and more young artisans are learning traditional skills and reaching larger audiences with their art.
In central China's Henan Province, 32 year old Chang Yangyang is a papercut artist and a vlogger with over 340,000 followers on Douyin, the Chinese version of TikTok. “Social media has created a bridge between people and the traditional culture in which they have an interest,” Chang said. Apart from livestreaming himself making papercuts, Chang also sells papercuts online, with pieces depicting everything from traditional Chinese customs to international soccer stars. “I hope to show the art to more people, instill a love of paper cutting, and further promote the art,” he said.

Trains became a symbol of progress, with New York City's Grand Central Station becoming a major cultural landmark (地标). 38(____) For example, Johnny Cash wrote a song called Folsom Prison Blues.
But little by little, railways were replaced by highways as “car culture” took over the US. China would go on to use trains even more widely. 39(____) It allows people to travel fast with ease.

It's always a good time. 40(____) And for some reason, even instant noodles taste better on the train than they do anywhere else.

Located in Southwest China, Sichuan Province has many world famous places of interest. My family trip to Jiuzhaigou, a nature reserve in Sichuan, still remains fresh in my memory.
Stepping onto the magical land, I was totally stunned by its multi level waterfalls and lakes of amazing colors: crystal clear, blue green and dark green. Creatures were living in harmony with nature there. As we walked deeper, we even saw rare animals like giant pandas and golden monkeys.
All in all, a trip to Sichuan is highly recommended and it is well worth another visit.

Every Thanksgiving Day for nine years, Peter, a poor man, sat down in the New York City park, waiting for an old gentleman who would invite him to eat a big meal. But this Thanksgiving Day Peter wasn't hungry. He was lucky. A lady often helped the poor on this day and she had served too much food to him. He had eaten so big a meal that he had almost no power to move. So he sat there, very full and his breath almost stopped.
At the time, an old gentleman was coming toward Peter's seat. Every Thanksgiving Day the old gentleman came there and then led Peter to a restaurant and watched him eating. Feeding Peter once a year was a tradition. “I can give thanks on this day. I'll give you a meal that will surely make your body feel as strong as your mind,” said the old gentleman. Always before those words had been music in Peter's ear.But now he looked up at the old gentleman's face with tears of suffering in his eyes. But the old gentleman didn't see Peter's eyes. Peter wondered why the old gentleman seemed sad as he spoke.
The old gentleman was thin and tall. His hair was whiter and thinner than last year. He had no family and he just thought Peter was his relative. He lived alone in an old house near the park. His eyes were bright with pleasure. Peter finally nodded and accepted the invitation. Peter was too full to eat but he understood that he was a part of the tradition.
The old gentleman led Peter to the same restaurant. He sat at the table silently. Today, it was strange that he kept staring at Peter's food as if he were very hungry. Peter began to eat. The turkey and all the other food were gone almost as quickly as they appeared. Peter saw the look of happiness on the old gentleman's face. After an hour, the big meal was finished.
“Thank you!” Peter said weakly. He stood up heavily and started to go. They said goodbye as they did each year. The old gentleman went away first.
注意:
1.续写词数应为150个左右;
2.请按如下格式在相应位置作答。

Peter suddenly fell and then was picked up and taken to a hospital. Peter was put on a bed, and a doctor began to try to discover what strange sickness had made him fall. Strangely, ten minutes later, the old gentleman was brought to the same hospital as well. He was put on another bed, and another doctor began to try to discover what his sickness could be. The two doctors carefully checked the two patients.
答案
After finishing examining the two patients, the two doctors met and they talked about the causes of their sickness. Actually, the nice old gentleman had nothing to eat for three days. He was too hungry and almost starved to death. But he managed to save enough money to invite Peter to go to the same restaurant to eat. Meanwhile, Peter was too full and almost died from overeating. They just kept the tradition that every Thanksgiving Day the gentleman invited Peter to eat a big meal. They almost lost their lives for the sake of the tradition, which sounded ridiculous. However, they were friends and found comfort from each other.
