Ⅴ.【文章大意】 本文是一篇说明文。文章主要探讨了文化记忆的定义、功能及其在社会和文化适应中的重要作用。
1.B 推理判断题。根据文章第一段内容“People may typically think of memory as the recollection of the past. Memory enables people to learn from past experiences and apply that knowledge in present cases. It is an important part of our identity. So is culture, the way of life specific to a group of people.”(人们通常认为记忆是对过去的回忆。记忆使人们能够从过去的经历中学习,并将这些知识应用于当前的情况。这是我们身份的重要组成部分。文化也是如此,是一群人特有的生活方式。)以及第二段首句“Cultural memory is the constructed understanding of the past that is passed from one generation to the next through text, oral traditions, monuments and other symbols.”(文化记忆是对过去的理解,通过文本、口头传统、纪念碑和其他符号代代相传。)可知,第一段是为了引出文化记忆的概念。故选B。
2.A 词义猜测题。根据画线单词下文“To understand culture, humans access a mass of cultural symbols, such as books. Artifacts (历史文物) of the past provide insights into where we came from. Libraries and the Internet keep a seemingly boundless amount of data on what it means to be part of a culture.”(为了理解文化,人类接触了大量的文化符号,比如书籍。历史文物对我们从哪里来提供了见解。图书馆和互联网保存着看似无穷无尽的数据,这些数据是关于成为某种文化的一部分意味着什么。)可推测,画线单词的意思和“储存”相似,画线词所在句指的是“文化记忆通常储存在博物馆或历史纪念碑等事物中”。故选A。
3.D 推理判断题。根据文章第三段“Besides, it creates a form of shared identity and a means of communicating this identity to new members. The most powerful forms of cultural memory…survival among threatened groups.”可知,二战对俄罗斯人的身份认同产生了深远影响,因此,俄罗斯的例子是用来说明文化记忆对身份认同的影响。故选D。
4.A 推理判断题。根据文章最后一段“The main function of cultural memory is not to recall the past, whether it is good or bad. Rather, it is to use knowledge of past experiences to avoid making the same mistakes again and again.”以及“Cultural memory enables people to adapt to their culture; it enables cultures to adapt to new circumstances by keeping traces of what worked in the past.”可知,文化记忆主要被期望用来传承过去的智慧,以避免一次又一次地犯同样的错误。故选A。
Ⅵ.【文章大意】 本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了体验一种新的文化的好处。
1.G 上文“Often the best way to really explore a new place and culture is by spending abundant time there. A quick vacation may give you a glimpse (短暂的感受) into your destination.”提出探索一个新的地方和文化的最好的方法是在那里度过大量的时间,短暂的度假只能让你对目的地有个初步了解,G项“But experiences like student or work exchange programmes allow you to immerse (沉浸) yourself in a new culture”(但是像学生或工作交换项目这样的经历可以让你沉浸在一种新的文化中)给出能让人沉浸在一种新的文化中的方式,与上文中a quick vacation构成转折关系,上下文语意连贯。故选G。
2.F 上文“Culture shock is a response to your new surroundings when you are abroad, which can leave you confused, anxious and feeling lonely. It generally includes frustration at how even the simplest things can be different in the new culture. The thing is though, culture shock can be seen as a problem but also as an opportunity.”介绍了什么是文化冲击,结合本段小标题“Dealing with culture shock”可知,本段最终要说明如何应对文化冲击,F项“Only by adjusting to and accepting new surroundings can you understand and appreciate it”(只有适应和接受新的环境,你才能理解和欣赏它)给出应对文化冲击的办法,符合语境。故选F。
3.A 此处为段落小标题。根据下文内容可知,本段主要介绍了语言对体验新文化的重要性。A项“Learning language skills”(学习语言技能)符合语境。故选A。
4.E 根据后文“In each of these creative fields you may come across new approaches or elements that you bring home with you; maybe it’s a certain combination of ingredients that you add to your cooking or a new style you adopt for your own home’s design.”可知,本段介绍通过一些创造性的领域来体验新的文化。E项“Experiencing the local culture can expose you to local art, cuisine, architecture, etc.”(体验当地文化可以让你接触到当地的艺术、美食、建筑等)符合语境。故选E。
5.D 根据前句“Meeting people and making friends while you are overseas is both a necessity and one of the most enjoyable aspects of the experience.”和后半句“…which enables you to meet people that you never would have known otherwise.”可知,结交朋友是体验新文化的好方法。D项“Travelling to new cultures is a great way to expand your social circle”(到新的文化中旅行是扩大你的社交圈的好方法)符合上下文语境。故选D。
Ⅶ.【文章大意】 这是一篇新闻报道。马耳他中国文化中心启动了一个名为“汉服服饰协会”的新文化平台,旨在促进中国和马耳他之间的文化交流,展示丰富的传统文化。文章对此进行了报道。
1.named 考查过去分词。动词name意为“命名”,和谓语之间没有连词,和逻辑主语cultural platform构成被动关系,且动作已完成,应用过去分词形式作后置定语。故填named。
2.is expected 考查动词时态、语态和主谓一致。此处描述客观事实,应用一般现在时。动词expect意为“期待”,和主语构成被动关系。主语platform为单数。故填is expected。
3.richness 考查名词。此处作宾语,应用名词richness,表示“丰富”。故填richness。
4.for 考查介词。固定短语be known for意为“以……闻名”,符合语境,此处应用介词for。故填for。
5.who 考查定语从句。此处非限制性定语从句缺少主语,且先行词为young Chinese,指人,应用关系代词who。故填who。
6.a 考查冠词。activity意为“活动”,为可数名词,此处hanfu-themed activity为第一次出现,应用不定冠词表示泛指。hanfu-themed的发音为辅音音素开头,应用不定冠词a。故填a。
7.dating 考查现在分词。动词短语date back to意为“追溯到”,和谓语之间没有连词,且和逻辑主语styles构成主动关系,所以应用现在分词形式作后置定语。故填dating。
8.graceful 考查形容词。此处作宾语补足语,应用形容词graceful,表示“优雅的”。故填graceful。
9.specifically 考查副词。此处作状语,应用副词specifically,表示“专门地”。故填specifically。
10.to contribute 考查动词不定式。desire to do sth意为“渴望做某事”,此处应用to do不定式。故填to contribute。Period Two Reading and Thinking

[2024·山东济宁地区高一期中]
People may typically think of memory as the recollection of the past. Memory enables people to learn from past experiences and apply that knowledge in present cases. It is an important part of our identity. So is culture, the way of life specific to a group of people.
Cultural memory is the constructed understanding of the past that is passed from one generation to the next through text, oral traditions, monuments and other symbols. Cultural memory is often amassed in objects, such as museums or historical monuments. To understand culture, humans access a mass of cultural symbols, such as books. Artifacts (历史文物) of the past provide insights into where we came from. Libraries and the Internet keep a seemingly boundless amount of data on what it means to be part of a culture. Cultural memory is the longest-lasting form of memory.
Like all forms of memory, cultural memory has important functions. For example, it makes the experiences a nation owns clear. It provides us with an understanding of the past and the values of the group to which we belong. Besides, it creates a form of shared identity and a means of communicating this identity to new members. The most powerful forms of cultural memory may involve memories of past disastrous experiences undergone by groups of victims. For example, in Russia, their role in World War Ⅱ—in which tens of millions of Russians were killed—is still an important part of modern Russian identity. Because all groups have cultural memory, it can bring about a spirit of resistance or survival among threatened groups.
The main function of cultural memory is not to recall the past, whether it is good or bad. Rather, it is to use knowledge of past experiences to avoid making the same mistakes again and again. Aleida Assmann, a professor who has worked on memory theory since the 1960s, calls this “remembering forward”. Cultural memory enables people to adapt to their culture; it enables cultures to adapt to new circumstances by keeping traces of what worked in the past.

Why experiencing
a new culture is good for you
Often the best way to really explore a new place and culture is by spending abundant time there. A quick vacation may give you a glimpse (短暂的感受) into your destination. 1. . These opportunities provide a support network as you adjust to new surroundings.
Dealing with culture shock
Culture shock is a response to your new surroundings when you are abroad, which can leave you confused, anxious and feeling lonely. It generally includes frustration at how even the simplest things can be different in the new culture. The thing is though, culture shock can be seen as a problem but also as an opportunity. 2. .
3.
Perhaps the most obvious lesson learned with travel is the importance of language. Even just learning the basics of the local language can make getting about and making new friends easier. Trying to overcome the language barrier also teaches you about non-verbal communication. Since you can’t rely on what is being said, you learn to adapt to people’s tone and body language. This makes you a better communicator.
Finding inspiration
4. . In each of these creative fields you may come across new approaches or elements that you bring home with you; maybe it’s a certain combination of ingredients that you add to your cooking or a new style you adopt for your own home’s design.
Meeting new people
Meeting people and making friends while you are overseas is both a necessity and one of the most enjoyable aspects of the experience. 5. , which enables you to meet people that you never would have known otherwise. You may be exposed to people from different walks of life, find a similar spirit, or both at the same time.
A.Learning language skills
B.Developing body language
C.So you’re less likely to further experience a new culture
D.Travelling to new cultures is a great way to expand your social circle
E.Experiencing the local culture can expose you to local art, cuisine, architecture, etc.
F.Only by adjusting to and accepting new surroundings can you understand and appreciate it
G.But experiences like student or work exchange programmes allow you to immerse(沉浸) yourself in a new culture

People may typically think of memory as the recollection of
the past. Memory enables people to learn from past experiences
and apply that knowledge in present cases. It is an important
part of our identity. So is culture, the way of life specific to a
group of people.

Cultural memory is the constructed understanding of the
past that is passed from one generation to the next through
text, oral traditions, monuments and other symbols. Cultural
memory is often amassed in objects, such as museums or
historical monuments. To understand culture, humans access a
mass of cultural symbols, such as books. Artifacts (历史文物) of
the past provide insights into where we came from. Libraries
and the Internet keep a seemingly boundless amount of data
on what it means to be part of a culture. Cultural memory is
the longest-lasting form of memory.

Like all forms of memory, cultural memory has important
functions. For example, it makes the experiences a nation owns
clear. It provides us with an understanding of the past and the
values of the group to which we belong. Besides, it creates a
form of shared identity and a means of communicating this
identity to new members. The most powerful forms of cultural
memory may involve memories of past disastrous experiences
undergone by groups of victims. For example, in Russia, their
role in World War Ⅱ—in which tens of millions of Russians
1

were killed—is still an important part of modern Russian identity.
Because all groups have cultural memory, it can bring about a
spirit of resistance or survival among threatened groups.
The main function of cultural memory is not to recall the
past, whether it is good or bad. Rather, it is to use knowledge
of past experiences to avoid making the same mistakes again
and again. Aleida Assmann, a professor who has worked on
memory theory since the 1960s, calls this “remembering forward”.
Cultural memory enables people to adapt to their culture; it
enables cultures to adapt to new circumstances by keeping
traces of what worked in the past.
