Arund the wrld, traditinal crafts are falling victim t technlgy and glbalizatin. In Hng Kng, Miru Wng Ka-lam is ding her bit t keep the art f Yue embridery (粤绣) alive. Wng’s hand-embridered she shp, Sindart, is ne f a few in the city t have survived the industry. T share her skills, the third-generatin wner f the 65-year-ld small business hlds weekly wrkshps fr thse eager t learn the dying art f embridery.
When family members gather fr dinner during the Mid-Autumn Festival, they exchange gifts. Handmade slippers (拖鞋) used t be a ppular item t give t elderly members f the family. Unfrtunately, the practice is nw less cmmn. “When my grandparents started the shp in the 1950s, there were a lt mre rders fr handmade slippers. Nw, it seems that peple are mre fcused n buying mncakes,” Wng says.
Cheaper, machine-embridered slippers are anther threat (威胁) t the traditinal craft’s survival. Wng, hwever, believes that handmade slippers have better quality cmpared with machine-made nes. “Machine-made slippers feel different frm handmade nes,” she says. “The material is t sft, making the slippers uncmfrtable.”
One element (元素) that makes Sindart’s slippers unique is the wide range f designs. “My late grandfather, wh funded Sindart in 1958 in a tiny shp, created his wn embridery designs in the1950s,” Wng says.
Wng has made up her mind t give new life t the art f Yue embridery by adding mdern elements and making ftwear that is suitable fr everyday use. “This includes applying hand embridery t nt nly slippers, which is the traditin, but als t ther types f shes.

Have yu ever imagined a tennis lessn frm ne f the wrld’s greatest tennis players at yur lcal curt?
This dream came true fr tw yung players, wh gt t train with 20-year-ld superstar Emma Raducanu after she appeared as a hlgram (全息图) — a phtgraphic recrding f the image. While Sam Clague, 14, and T’nae Diamnd Paisley, 12, were bth in Lndn, the British number ne was in Abu Dhabi.
During the wrld’s first hlgraphic lessn, Ms Raducanu’s avatar (头像) appeared t feed balls t the players and gave live feedback n their shts, like “that was fast” and “there was lts f tpspin (上旋) n that”. Even Sam said he thught she had been pre-recrded at first until she spke with him directly.
Their hlgraphic training sessin ffers a glimpse int hw advancing technlgy culd revlutinize tennis caching, accrding t Dr Ian Pearsn.
Dr Pearsn thinks that mixed reality headsets will sn allw tennis players t feel they are playing in unusual virtual envirnments, like n a space statin r the middle f a lake. Thrugh 5G, the future f tennis will see increased interactin between real life tennis curts and the rich imaginatin we see in cmputer games — playing whenever, wherever and whever yu want.
Full sensry (全感官) virtual reality culd even place the viewer inside the tennis player’s shes in real time. Dr Pearsn said, “By 2030, with active skin technlgy, the playing styles and even the sensatins f tp-level players culd be captured, s that anyne culd experience hw it actually felt t play that game thrugh full sensry virtual reality.”
Finally, sprtswear made frm smart materials culd allw fr a digital cach pwered by artificial intelligence (AI) t prvide feedback n a player’s frm. Dr Pearsn said, “AI-cntrlled suits made frm smart materials, such as fabrics with sensrs, can help players find the perfect strke when hitting r returning a serve by quickly learning the muscle memry f a flawless frehand. Using direct feedback frm friendly virtual AI caches, new players can develp and learn much mre quickly.”
8. What did Ms Raducanu d in the first hlgraphic lessn?
A. Give players a real time guidance.
B. Require players t fllw her shts.
C. Recrd caching cntents in advance.
D. Analyze techniques after the hlgraphic lessn.
9. What can full sensry virtual reality make viewers d?
A. Increase their imaginatin f sprts.
B. Take the place f tp level players.
C. Experience the feeling f players n the spt.
D. Have a sense f playing in an unusual place.
10. What’s Dr Pearsn’s attitude twards virtual AI caches?
A. Critical.B. Skeptical.C. Favrable.D. Cautius.
11. What might be the best title fr the text?
A The future f tennis caching.B. The threat frm AI t caches.
C. The first live caching nline.D. The appearance f digital tennis partners.

“WHAT IS CIVILISATION?” asked Kenneth Clark 50 years ag in the seminal (开创性的) BBC series n the subject. “I dn’t knw, and I can’t define it in abstract terms, yet. But I think I can recgnize it when I see it, and I’m lking at it nw.” And he turned t gesture behind him, at the saring Gthic twers and flying buttresses f Ntre Dame (巴黎圣母院).
It seems inhuman t care mre abut a building than abut peple. That the sight f Ntre Dame ging up in flames has attracted s much mre attentin than flds in suthern Africa which killed ver 1,000 aruses understandable feelings f guilt. Yet the widespread, intense grief at the sight f the cathedral’s (大教堂) cllapsing steeple (尖塔) is in fact prfundly human — and in a particularly 21st-century way. Familiarity breeds affectin. A building n whse sunny steps yu have rested, in frnt f which yu have taken a selfie with yur lved ne, becmes a warm part f yur memries and thus f yurself. That helps explain why China is in murning — WeChat, yung China’s principal (主要的) means f talking t itself, has been fllwing the stry.
And it will be rebuilt. The effrt t rebuild it will bring peple tgether. Within 24 hurs, €600m ($677m) had been raised frm businesses and rich peple, and a rash f crwdfunding campaigns started.
Yet the emtins the sight arused were less abut the building itself than abut what lsing it might mean. Ntre Dame is an expressin f humanity at its cllective best. Its survival thrugh 850 years f plitical turbulence — thrugh war, revlutin and Nazi ccupatin — binds the present t the past.
It will never be the same, but that is as it shuld be. As Victr Hug wrte in “The Hunchback f Ntre Dame”, a three-vlume lve-letter t the cathedral: “Great edifices (建筑物), like great muntains, are the wrk f centuries. Art is ften transfrmed as it is being made… Time is the architect, the natin is the builder.”
12. What can we infer accrding t Paragraph 1?
A. Kenneth Clark is a staff (职员) in BBC.
B. Kenneth Clark believes that Ntre Dame is a symbl f civilizatin.
C. Civilizatin is s abstract that Kenneth Clark can’t recgnise it.
D. Ntre Dame is the subject f the BBC series.
13. Why has the sight f Ntre Dame ging up in flames attracted s much attentin accrding t the passage?
A. Because the sunny steps in Ntre Dame fr peple t rest n is impressive.
B. Because Ntre Dame has bsted the lcal ecnmy.
C. Because numerable peple arund the wrld has been there and left gd memries.
D. Because scial media like WeChat in China help mre peple knw it.
14. Which f the fllwing can best explain the underlined wrd in Paragraph 4?
A. currentB. partiesC. pwerD. disrder
15. What’s the main idea f the last paragraph?
A. The essence (精髓) f Ntre Dame will be lst if we rebuild it.
B. It is difficult t rebuild Ntre Dame.
C. If it were nt fr the fire, Ntre Dame wuld always stay the same.
D. Ntre Dame will change as time ges by even withut the fire.

“WHAT IS CIVILISATION?” asked Kenneth Clark 50 years ag in the seminal (开创性的) BBC series n the subject. “I dn’t knw, and I can’t define it in abstract terms, yet. But I think I can recgnize it when I see it, and I’m lking at it nw.” And he turned t gesture behind him, at the saring Gthic twers and flying buttresses f Ntre Dame (巴黎圣母院).
It seems inhuman t care mre abut a building than abut peple. That the sight f Ntre Dame ging up in flames has attracted s much mre attentin than flds in suthern Africa which killed ver 1,000 aruses understandable feelings f guilt. Yet the widespread, intense grief at the sight f the cathedral’s (大教堂) cllapsing steeple (尖塔) is in fact prfundly human — and in a particularly 21st-century way. Familiarity breeds affectin. A building n whse sunny steps yu have rested, in frnt f which yu have taken a selfie with yur lved ne, becmes a warm part f yur memries and thus f yurself. That helps explain why China is in murning — WeChat, yung China’s principal (主要的) means f talking t itself, has been fllwing the stry.
And it will be rebuilt. The effrt t rebuild it will bring peple tgether. Within 24 hurs, €600m ($677m) had been raised frm businesses and rich peple, and a rash f crwdfunding campaigns started.
Yet the emtins the sight arused were less abut the building itself than abut what lsing it might mean. Ntre Dame is an expressin f humanity at its cllective best. Its survival thrugh 850 years f plitical turbulence — thrugh war, revlutin and Nazi ccupatin — binds the present t the past.
It will never be the same, but that is as it shuld be. As Victr Hug wrte in “The Hunchback f Ntre Dame”, a three-vlume lve-letter t the cathedral: “Great edifices (建筑物), like great muntains, are the wrk f centuries. Art is ften transfrmed as it is being made… Time is the architect, the natin is the builder.”
12. What can we infer accrding t Paragraph 1?
A. Kenneth Clark is a staff (职员) in BBC.
B. Kenneth Clark believes that Ntre Dame is a symbl f civilizatin.
C. Civilizatin is s abstract that Kenneth Clark can’t recgnise it.
D. Ntre Dame is the subject f the BBC series.
13. Why has the sight f Ntre Dame ging up in flames attracted s much attentin accrding t the passage?
A. Because the sunny steps in Ntre Dame fr peple t rest n is impressive.
B. Because Ntre Dame has bsted the lcal ecnmy.
C. Because numerable peple arund the wrld has been there and left gd memries.
D. Because scial media like WeChat in China help mre peple knw it.
14. Which f the fllwing can best explain the underlined wrd in Paragraph 4?
A. currentB. partiesC. pwerD. disrder
15. What’s the main idea f the last paragraph?
A. The essence (精髓) f Ntre Dame will be lst if we rebuild it.
B. It is difficult t rebuild Ntre Dame.
C. If it were nt fr the fire, Ntre Dame wuld always stay the same.
D. Ntre Dame will change as time ges by even withut the fire.
【答案】12. B 13. C 14. D 15. D
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇议论文。文章讲述了巴黎圣母院的烧毁以及回顾该建筑赋予人类的意义。对于巴黎圣母院的烧毁,人们普遍而强烈的悲痛是发自内心的,由此进一步论述了人们关心巴黎圣母院的原因。
【12题详解】
推理判断题。由文章第一段“‘WHAT IS CIVILISATION?’ asked Kenneth Clark 50 years ag in the seminal (开创性) BBC series n the subject. ‘I dn’t knw, and I can’t define it in abstract terms, yet. But I think I can recgnize it when I see it, and I’m lking at it nw.’ And he turned t gesture behind him, at the saring Gthic twers and flying buttresses f Ntre Dame (巴黎圣母院).(50年前,Kenneth Clark在英国广播公司关于这个主题的开创性系列节目中问道:‘什么是文明?我不知道,我还不能用抽象的术语来定义它。但我想当我看到它的时候我能认出它,我现在正在看它。’然后他转过身来,对着身后高耸的哥特式塔楼和圣母院的飞扶壁做手势。)”可知,Kenneth Clark认为圣母院是文明的象征。故选B项。
【13题详解】
细节理解题。由文章第二段“Familiarity breeds affectin. A building n whse sunny steps yu have rested, in frnt f which yu have taken a selfie with yur lved ne, becmes a warm part f yur memries and thus f yurself. (熟悉会滋生感情。一座你在阳光明媚的台阶上休息,在它前面与你所爱的人自拍的建筑,会成为你记忆中温暖的一部分,也会成为你自己的一部分。)”可知,因为全世界无数的人都去过那里,留下了美好的回忆,所以圣母院着火的景象引起了人们的极大关注。故选C项。
【14题详解】
词句猜测题。由第四段“Yet the emtins the sight arused were less abut the building itself than abut what lsing it might mean. Ntre Dame is an expressin f humanity at its cllective best. Its survival thrugh 850 years f plitical turbulence — thrugh war, revlutin and Nazi ccupatin — binds the present t the past.(然而,这一景象激起的情绪与其说是关于这座建筑本身,不如说是关于失去它可能意味着什么。圣母院体现了人类最美好的集体。它在850年的政治……中幸存下来——通过战争、革命和纳粹占领——将现在与过去联系在一起。)”中thrugh war, revlutin and Nazi ccupatin可知,这些是属于政治“动荡或者紊乱”,所以猜测turbulence表“动荡,紊乱”的意思。故选D项。
【15题详解】
主旨大意题。由文章最后一段“It will never be the same, but that is as it shuld be. As Victr Hug wrte in ‘The Hunchback f Ntre Dame’, a three-vlume lve-letter t the cathedral:‘Great edifices (建筑物), like great muntains, are the wrk f centuries. Art is ften transfrmed as it is being made… Time is the architect, the natin is the builder.’(它将永远不会一样,但这是应该的。正如维克多·雨果在写给大教堂的三卷本情书《巴黎圣母院》中所写:“伟大的建筑,就像伟大的山脉,是几个世纪的杰作。艺术往往在制作过程中发生变化……时间是建筑师,国家是建设者。”)”特别是第一句话可知,最后一段主要讲即使没有大火,圣母院也会随着时间的推移而改变。故选D项。

【答案】36. an 37. t suffer
38. have tpped##have been tpping
39. it 40. that##which
41. n 42. riginal
43. dishes 44. Asked
45. leaving
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇议论文。文章主要探讨了当前社会中人们依赖手机应用查看餐厅评价的习惯,以及这种依赖背后存在的问题,如商家购买好评和消费者因免费餐品而给出不客观评价的现象。文章呼吁平台应该采取措施提升评价的真实性和有效性,以改善消费者的用餐体验。
【36题详解】
考查冠词。句意:如今,我们习惯在去餐厅之前打开一个应用程序,浏览公众评论作为参考。空处泛指“一个应用程序”,app以元音音素开头,应用不定冠词an。故填an。
【37题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:但如果评分是4分或更低,这几乎意味着这家餐厅太糟糕了,你很可能会遭受不好的经历。be likely t d sth.“很可能做某事”为固定短语。故填t suffer。
【38题详解】
考查时态和主谓一致。句意:在过去的几个月里,“低评分的餐厅可能味道更好”等话题一直位列搜索词榜首。根据时间状语During the past mnths可知,句子应用现在完成时或现在完成进行时,表示从过去某时刻开始一直持续到现在的动作,主语为复数名词tpics,助动词用have。故填have tpped或have been tpping。
【39题详解】
考查代词。句意:但每个人都获得真实评价是必要的。空处应用It作形式主语,真正的主语为后面的动词不定式短语,位于句首首字母大写。故填it。
【40题详解】
考查定语从句。句意:我们需要分析导致目前情况的原因,并反思改善消费者体验的措施。空处引导限制性定语从句,修饰先行词reasns,指物,且关系词在从句中作主语,应用关系代词that或which。故填that或which。
【41题详解】
考查介词。句意:一方面,相当多的商业运营者主要依靠高分来吸引消费者,以至于他们购买正面评价。rely d sth.“依靠……来做某事”为固定搭配。故填n。
【42题详解】
考查形容词。句意:另一方面,一些消费者可能会违背他们最初的意图,给出高分,因为他们收到免费的菜肴或优惠券。空处修饰名词intentin,应用形容词riginal“最初的”,作定语。故填riginal。
【43题详解】
考查名词。句意:同上。dish为可数名词,前面无限定词修饰,应用复数形式,表示泛指。故填dishes。
【44题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:当被要求对这些现象提交评论时,平台必须开发更丰富的方法,以满足那些需要展示自身品质的优质用户。空处在句中作非谓语动词,动词ask与其逻辑主语platfrms之间构成被动关系,应用过去分词,作状语。故填Asked。
【45题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:否则,用户最终会抛弃平台,让那些狡猾的玩家继续他们的营销游戏。空处表示一种自然而然的结果,应用现在分词,在句中作结果状语。故填leaving。
