课时质量评价(十四)必修第三册　UNIT 3　DIVERSE CULTURES题型组合练——阅读理解＋七选五Ⅰ. 阅读理解A(2021·山东青岛高三模拟)Guanmei, a 65­year­old woman of the Dong ethnic group, is the inheritor of the Grand Song of Dong (侗族大歌), a national intangible cultural heritage in China. Her hometown Zaidai Village in Guizhou, southwestern China, is home to the Grand Song of the Dong ethnic group.The Grand Song of Dong dates from more than 2，500 years ago. The way Dong singers use their vocal cords (声带) is different from how formally trained singers do. It is a folk chorus with multi­parts, no conductor, and no accompaniment. Organically growing from their natural surroundings, it is recognised internationally as “the sound of Nature.”Before the Dong people had a writing system in 1958, the Dong culture, their history and stories were all recorded by means of songs. As a Dong saying goes, “Rice feeds the body and songs enrich the soul”. The Dong people sing right from their childhood. While not singing, they all work in their rice field.Guanmei has been singing the Grand Song of Dong all her life, making her a famous singing teacher in her hometown and nearby areas. “The songs are our means of passing on wisdom, knowledge and life experiences to others. I will not exist in this world 100 years later, but Grand songs will. I'm honoured to do this job，” Guanmei said.Kind­hearted, Guanmei has been volunteering to teach the Grand Song of Dong to the Dong children for over 30 years. Now she has more than 300 students. Guanmei is pleased to see the village children come to her house willingly when they have free time.“Nowadays, more and more young people leave the village and settle in cities. Decades later, the Dong children out of the village might know nothing about Grand songs. We should do something just now. It's our mission. What is once lost might be lost forever，” added Guanmei.【语篇解读】本文是一篇说明文。文章展示了一个女人为保持侗族文化的活力所做的努力。1. What makes the Grand Song of Dong known as “the sound of Nature”？A. The outstanding conductor.B.

In public, wearing this robe, covering neck to knee is a must for women in Iran. Her long, straight black hair is hidden beneath her headscarf.We're heading to Tajrish Bazaar in north Tehran, to explore ten different kinds of dried plums and other goodies. We choose the Metro — Farah for its convenience, and I, for a chance to go underground in the capital of Iran, because it provides a picture of the city most tourists never see.Women and men sit separately on the train, but the rule is relaxing during busy times, like now. We, along with a few other women, clasp (握紧) our hands around a pole, standing next to men, young and old. Two stops later, and about 20 commuters (通勤者) fewer, segregation happens naturally — women at one end, men at the other, still within view, but separate.A handful of fashionable girls admire their own reflections in the window. They wear tight leggings under their brightly coloured robes, pushing back headscarves and boundaries. We find seats next to a group of conservative women dressed in black cloaks (斗篷) called chador. They are nothing like the other women I have met, most of them liberal.“We're a nation with one language，” Farah says, “divided in two — traditional and modern.” She tells me that it all began, not with imports from the West, but with the 1979 revolution. A combination of education and a bad economy created a society where women now have independence, careers, and husbands feel obliged to help with household chores. 【语篇解读】本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了作者和导游Farah乘地铁前往德黑兰北部的塔吉里什集市的路上了解到的伊朗妇女的着装、当地文化及所见所感。5.

And the UK's got a thing or two that raises a few eyebrows. However, understand the why and things might be less puzzling.   1  ．In a world where 61%of nations drive on the right，Brits drive on the left. Why? Most people think it goes back to Medieval，maybe even Roman times.   2  ， when you remember that right­handed people wear a sword on their left hip. Travelling on the left allowed you to  keep your weapon arm towards your opponent, who would be on your right. This practice continued until the 18th century when a law was passed requiring all traffic crossing London Bridge to keep to the left.Visitors to the UK that have just washed their hands in an old­fashioned sink might be wondering why one tap is only for hot water, the other cold.   3  . So, why this oddity? It relates to a time when hot and cold water were kept separate to prevent pollution. Drinkable cold water came from a mains supply, but hot water came from attic tanks and was not considered suitable for consumption. So they were kept apart.Millions of people drink tea worldwide, but the odd Brits put milk in theirs. Why? This mysterious practice relates to the quality of china cup used in the 18th century when tea was first imposed. For the majority of Brits，the cups available couldn't stand the heat of the boiling water and would break，so milk was added first.   4  . And this practical tweak soon became a national habit.  5  . As you can see，these odd Brits have perfectly clear reasons for left­hand driving, two­tap sinks and tea with milk. Even if they still seem strange, at least now you're in the know.A. This makes it difficult to improveB. There is a method to the madnessC. This unusual behaviour makes senseD. You can know the origins of the practicesE. Either can make washing very uncomfortableF. This cooled the cup enough to resist the boiling waterG. Here are the reasons for three of Britain's more puzzling practices1～5　GCEFB
