TIANJIN, Dec.12, 2018 (Xinhua)—Striking Chinese gongs(锣) for 50 years, Liu Zibin, a 70-year-old folk artist in Tianjin Municipality, is eager to introduce the traditional musical instrument used in Chinese opera to more people.
Liu became addicted to Chinese opera in his childhood when his grandfather frequently took him to watch performances. At the age of 13, he joined Hebei bangzi training team. Hebei bangzi is one of the oldest types of Chinese opera in northern China, which became popular in the Qing Dynasty. It is a traditional Chinese opera combining music, vocals, dance and acrobatics(杂技).
“It took me hours to practice the basic skills of gongs,” he said. “This round piece of metal can help performers on the stage to express joy and sorrow when hit by a stick with different rhythms, so I must bear in mind all kinds of rhythms(节奏) for various situations. For example, striking gongs with a quick tempo(速度) can create a tense atmosphere for action scenes.”
In the 1960s and 1970s, the reorganization of opera troupes in Tianjin forced many members to switch their jobs to those in factories. Thanks to Liu’s brilliant skills, he was fortunate enough to go to one of the three biggest Beijing Opera troupes in Tianjin to continue his gong life.
Ten years ago, Liu retired, but he still goes to an opera tea house almost every afternoon to strike the gong for opera performances. In 2006, Hebei bangzi was listed into China’s national intangible cultural heritage. However, he worries about maintaining the art as fewer and fewer youngsters are learning percussion(敲打乐器), especially gongs. “People who strike the gong stay behind the scenes. It is hard for them to gain fame and fortune,” he said. Although many amateurs(业余爱好者) have learned from Liu over the years, some gave up easily. “It’s a bit dull and boring to continuously strike a gong for 40 minutes at the practice stage. It requires patience. Few can bear the hardship,” he said.
Various kinds of Chinese gongs are neatly placed at Liu’s home. He is waiting for more people to take over his career and spread the traditional Chinese art.
24．What can we know about Liu Zibin from the 2nd paragraph?
A．His grandfather founded Hebei Opera Troupe.
B．He showed interest in Chinese opera as a child.
C．He was the only one who could strike gongs in the troupe.
D．His grandfather taught him to sing Hebei bangzi.
25．Why did some members of the opera troupes turn to factories in the 1960s and 1970s?
A．Because of the reform of the opera troupes.
B．Because no one showed interest in opera then.
C．Because they could earn more money in factories.
D．Because the opera troupe was badly lacking in funds.
26．How old was Liu Zibin when he retired?
A．55 years old. B．60 years old.
C．65 years old. D．70 years old.
27．What can we conclude from the text?
A．People striking the gong will never become famous.
B．Grasping the skill of striking the gong is anything but challenging.
C．Liu expects the traditional Chinese art will draw more people’s attention.
D．Hebei bangzi is now the world’s intangible cultural heritage.

I searched through my jewelry box and found a ring that had belonged to my grandmother．It could serve as a wedding band．I stepped out that night，nervously rolling my wedding band around my finger．Walking into a bar，I directly approached the man closest to the door．I rubbed my hand with the ring across my face to ensure this man saw I was married before launching into my questions．Not only did he answer my questions，but he was thrilled I was paying attention to him and gave me the best answers yet．
After this encounter, I felt more confident．Somehow, this ring made me feel protected．As a beautiful single woman，I've often felt the need to play hard to get．With the wedding band，this need disappeared．I could laugh and joke easily with my subjects and they did the same．
When I approached two men at once，they were cautious at first．When I lied I was writing about modem dating，I said，“ I'm married and when I met my husband，there weren’t even camera phones．So I’m super curious about it all．”
They opened up and shared their deepest secrets．As I absorbed their thoughts，I felt a new faith in men，which was confirmed when these guys offered to help me if any of my interviews went wrong．It touched me that these guys were willing to help me if I needed it and that they trusted me with their secrets instead of telling me lies to impress me．
Why did a ring have such an effect on my experience? Maybe because looking for love is terrifying for everyone involved．Love seems like a fast track to pain．But with the wedding ring，I was unavailable and therefore safe from rejection．I could just be myself．Maybe we were able to have safe and easy conversations because the option of asking for a phone number was off the table．Without the fear of rejection on all sides , we were able to have genuine conversations．
Who needs love? I don’t，not until I figure out what men want．
28．Why did the author put on her grandmother’s ring?
A．Because she wanted to rip off men in the bar．
B．Because the ring meant a lot to her and was valuable．
C．Because the ring was her major source of confidence．
D．Because it was a quick way to bring down men’s guard．
29．What might be the author’s previous image of men?
A．cautious and helpful B．terrifying and rude
C．unreliable and dishonest D．truthful and faithful
30．What is the author most likely to do in the near future?
A．Publish a book on modem relationship．
B．Encourage all women to put on a wedding ring．
C．Return the ring and stop lying about her marriage．
D．Maintain her cover to get deeper inside men’s heads．
31．What does the passage mainly talk about?
A．Suspicion is the poison of true friendship．
B．When you got nothing to lose，you got nothing to hide．
C．It’s better to have loved and lost than never to have loved at all．
D．The true nature of a heart is seen in its response to the ordinary．
D
Learning how to do simple handwork is a great way for girls to combine practical skills and creativity. With schools and educators always trying to encourage more girls to take up STEM subjects (science, technology, engineering and maths) in high school and beyond, this could be the start of something special.
“My daughter always asks to help me when I get something from IKEA that needs putting together,” says Emma. “Normally, I don’t trust her to do much more than turning the Allen key a few times, but recently I bought two chairs and thought: Why not let them have a go? My daughter Ruby did one on her own and was really careful and expert in it. It amazed me that she did a better job than me.”
If parents still aren’t convinced that letting their daughters loose with the family power tools is a good idea, just remember how much the local worker charges for a quick DIY job. This fun hobby might save the family a few dollars, or even broaden their daughter’s visions to a building, engineering-based career or study path further down the line.
“When I first used a saw (锯子), I was pretty sure I’d cut my finger off or something, but our teacher explained everything we needed to know and I star-ted off slowly,” explains Amelia, a 12-year-old girl.
“I’ve nearly finished making my bread board and I’ve brought some off-cuts home because I want to try and turn them into something using tools from my grandpa’s collection. I love building. It’s creative and challenging and really satisfying when it works!” Amelia adds. “I’m going to build a bird feeder for our garden next. I just need to ask Mum and Dad if I can borrow a drill and some nails.”
Hopefully they’ll say yes. After all, Amelia might end up building them a family house in a few years.
32．How did Ruby perform when putting the chair together?
A．Less carefully than usual. B．As skillfully as an expert.
C．Beyond mom’s expectation. D．No better than her mom.
33．What will happen if a girl knows how to do a DIY job?
A．The local worker will charge her less money. B．She will make a few dollars for the family.
C．It will prevent her from getting a lot of fun. D．It will improve her STEM-related ability.
34．What will Amelia do with parents’  permission?
A．Make a bread board. B．Bring off-cuts home.
C．Build a family house. D．Make a bird feeder.
35．What’s the main idea of the text?
A．Parents ought to do handwork with their kids. B．Girls should be given chances to do handwork.
C．Girls share their stories about doing handwork. D．Kids are beneficial from doing some handwork.

In January 2020, my life wasn’t just great. I was the youngest in my amazing group of best friends, I had managed to secure 8 spot on the swim team. Then when February began, I had the best Sweet Sixteen a girl could ask for. Shortly after my birthday, my team traveled for week in Hawaii.
Little did we know we would return to chaos and a complete change of our way of life. It was March 13 and there was talk of school shutting down for two weeks. We were all excited, but on top of the news of the day, some students pulled the fire alarm and we found ourselves in the pouring rain on the wet, muddy field. About to be dismissed for what was only supposed to be a long spring break, my best friends, who I had seen practically every day, made promises to each other about how we would stay close during the lockdown.
Shortly into quarantine(隔离期), I found myself taking up hobbies like learning French, catching up on TV shows, learning piano, and doing anything I could to keep myself busy. At the time, online school was a complete joke. It was all homework because the teachers didn’t know how to teach online yet. Looking back on March 13th, I felt like a fool for thinking two weeks would be a solution to a pandemic(流行病). Months went by and the new school year began. I couldn’t wrap my head around the fact that I went from training in the pool for fifteen hours a week to zero. My desire to catch up on hobbies went away, and the pain of missing my friends came. I was in a battle for my mental and physical health.
注意：1续写词数应为150左右。
2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
Still, all the same, I felt ever so determined to climb out of the darkness.

1．B
W: When did you get back from vacation?
M: I wish though! I was in Chicago visiting one of our branch offices.
2．A
W: It’s January, and it’s been raining the whole month. How long does the rainy season last here?
M: About four months. It begins in early November and lasts until February.
3．B
W: What does Miss Green do?
M: She used to work in a hospital. But now she works at a kindergarten.
W: She must love working there very much. She loves children so much.
M: You bet.
4．A
W: Which subject are you least interested in?
M: I think it is Chinese History. It is not because the subject is boring, but because the large amount of material that has to be memorized.
5．C
W: I was sure I put my wallet in my handbag yesterday evening before I went shopping. But it was just nowhere to be found when I was going to pay for my shopping.
M: Actually you left your wallet in the hall. I saw it at the bottom of the stairs in our home this morning.
6．B 7．C
M: Have you met the new team member?
W: Yes. I can’t believe they replaced Gary with a robot.
M: I mean it’s very cute, but do they honestly think a machine can do the job better than a human?
W: I know I would understand if it was labor like working in a factory, but how can it replace an accountant?
M: I wonder if this is a joke, like one of those TV shows with hidden cameras.
W: Unfortunately, it’s definitely real. I wonder who will be next for the change.
M: Well. I can’t see them replacing you. Robots can’t write very well.
W: You say that now, but who knows, maybe they will soon. My sister works for an AI company.
M: So she’s to blame.
W: Honestly, some of the things she tells me are scary.
8．B 9．B 10．A
M: I can't believe this. I have been on the phone with my bank all day and they still haven't fixed my problem.
W: Is it a credit card problem?
M: Yes. My credit card information was stolen. When I got my bill in the mail, I saw there were many unfamiliar purchases on it.
W: That's terrible. Did they take a lot of money?
M: Yes, and I am very upset because the bank is not helping me quickly. I have talked to many different managers already.
W: Doesn't the bank's owner need to make the decision to give you your money back?
M: No. I just have to prove that these purchases were not made by me.
W: I hope you can fix this problem soon. Something similar happened to my husband's mother recently. She was tricked into giving away some important information over the phone.
M: I think the person who stole my information got it from the Internet. I bought a collection of movies recently. I won't be doing that again unless the website is sure to be safe. It's honestly my fault for being careless.
W: You can never be too careful. Well, your problem is inspiring me to look into protecting my account better. I think I can pay my bank more to help me.
11．C 12．B 13．C 14．A
W: What’s your plan for this summer holiday, Michael?
M: I’m planning to take a trip to Europe. And I think I need to make a detailed plan to make my trip a little easier.
W: I remember that your neighbour is a travel agent. Maybe you can get some useful information from her.
M: Yes, you’ve right. And my roommate Jack has also given me some advice. He suggested looking online for flight tickets at reduced prices.
W: That’s a good idea. But if you want to travel first class to make your journey more comfortable, it’ll be very expensive.
M: I certainly won’t. I’m more concerned about saving money.
W: Then have you considered travelling by train? It’ll save you a lot of money.
M: No. A train stops at every station. I don’t have enough time. Time is the most important thing.
15．A 16．B 17．C
W: Hello and welcome to Amazing Adventures. Today we have a scientist Dr. Ken Roberts, who studies storms with us. Now, Dr. Roberts, you’re what some people call a “storm hunter”. Can you tell us what that is?
M: Yes. A storm hunter’s someone who follows storms like tornadoes to study them.
W: Interesting. Can you tell us more about what sort of things you do?
M: Certainly. Well, for example, if I want to study tornadoes, then I usually follow them in my car. That way, I can get close enough to get measurements with my instruments.
W: Do you have any studies planned for the future?
M: Well, if I get a chance, I’ll try to film the inside of a tornado and publish the pictures in a magazine so that people can know it.
18．C 19．A 20．C
My Best Friend is a book for young children. It’s mainly about a little girl named Lily. It’s summer, and Lily spends lots of time at the community pool, where she sees Tamika. Lily decides that Tamika will be her new best friend. But Tamika already has a best friend and no matter how hard Lily tries, she can’t seem to impress Tamika. The story tells about the difficulties of finding a friend.
My daughter Lisa and I read the book together. She said that she would give the book three stars. But I would give it just two stars. I especially did not like the topic. I think as a parent we should explain to our children that when someone is being mean and ignoring you, pushing harder will not make them like you more. We should also tell them that it’s OK to walk away from someone who is not showing true interest in being your friend. I wouldn’t recommend the book. But through writing the book, Mary Ann Rodman did open the doors for me to teach Lisa that some people are mean and that it’s OK to walk away from them and make new friends.

Still, all the same, I felt ever so determined to climb out of the darkness. With the holidays around the corner, things started to look up. Even though it wasn’t warm enough, I was confident about finding the new year’s spirit. It was different this year but I still looked forward to the normal activities: New year’s eve dinner, opening gifts with my family on New Year’s Day, no school for two whole weeks!
I made a New Year’s resolution to become more devoted to my studies. As I did that, I found the college conversation became less stressful. I thought about all the possibilities for my future, and the passions I would pursue. I became more excited about the unknown. As I allowed myself to embrace the future, everything started to become harmonious. We were getting a new term in a matter of weeks, and I had my friends and family. My larger world and my unknown but exciting future became clearer.
