But instead of being performed on stage in front of live audiences, this line was presented to audiences in the hit movie Full River Red from famed director Zhang Yimou. Setting the work to electronic and rock 'n' roll music, the film impressed countless moviegoers during the recent Spring Festival holidays. The rock scene combining(结合) Yuju Opera with fast-paced editing(剪辑) not only caught the attention of audiences, but more importantly helped revive the traditional opera among young people who used to think of it as something only their grandparents would watch on TV every night. The music in Full River Red was sung by Zhang Xiaoying, a well-known Yuju Opera actress. With 40 years of experience, she is a household name in the industry, but the film marked the first time she had ever heard and attempted such a “combination” of styles. In order to match the modern style of this music, Zhang had to make some changes to her singing style. At that time, she thought nothing more than completing it as a task and she was also concerned that her fans would object to the combination of styles. But after the movie came out, her phone exploded with messages congratulating her. Many young netizens poured into the chat for her livestreams, commenting that they hoped Zhang would recreate her performance in the movie. “Adding a modern touch to ancient operas has made this art more popular with young audience, which also gives us confidence in inheriting China's such a cultural traditional art. And in my opinion, such a combination is also a model for a dialogue between Chinese and foreign musical instruments, which is promising and may become a new trend in the future,” said Zhang. ( )1.

The coin was to be sold at an auction sale in London. The silver coin was minted in 1652 in Boston, Massachusetts. “To mint” means to make, or strike, a coin out of metal. Coin experts consider it to be the best example of about 40 such coins known to still exist(存在). The business holding the sale is Morton and Eden Limited. It issued a statement on Wednesday. It said the coin was recently found in Britain inside a candy container that held hundreds of old coins. James Morton is the coin specialist in the auctioneer—the business holding the sale. He called the New England coin the “star of the collection”. “I could hardly believe my eyes when I realized that it was an excellent example of a New England shilling(先令), struck by John Hull in 1652 in Boston for use as money by early settlers in the Massachusetts Bay Colony,” Morton said in a statement. The recently discovered coin has the letters NE, for New England, on one side. On the other side is the Roman number for 12. That was the number of pennies in a shilling. The coin belongs to Wentworth “Wenty” Beaumont. Beaumont's father found it in a container in his study at the family home in northern England. Beaumont's ancestor, William Wentworth, was an early settler of New England. He is thought to have arrived in the Colonies in 1636. He likely received the coin when it was new. The Wentworths became a well-known family in New Hampshire. Jim Bailey is a coin expert in Rhode Island. He called the shilling “a special discovery”. Bailey added that the coin has great “eye appeal” in the coin collecting world. ( )1. What do we know about the silver coin? A.It is the most valuable. B.It is the best preserved.

From warships to dinosaur(恐龙) footprints and ancient cities and monuments, the dry weather is showing some things long hidden underwater. With Europe facing its worst drought in hundreds of years, water levels in rivers have dropped severely. In many places, this has showed “hunger stones”. These stones, normally underwater, have dates carved on them marking other times when the water was low enough to reveal(显示) them. In China, the water levels in the Yangtze River have also dropped greatly. Now the waters have fallen so low that they have revealed an entire island, called Foyeliang. On the island, three Buddhist statues have been found, carved in the rock. The statues are believed to be about 600 years old. In Iraq, a long-term drought has revealed the 3,400-year-old city of Kemune in the Mosul reservoir(水库) and much of this ancient city is visible now. A team of German and Kurdish scientists made quick plans to study the site while the water level remained low. They were able to create a detailed plan of the city and discovered some important storage buildings. The team had to cover their research site with plastic as water levels rose enough to cover the city again. In Spain, a recent study suggests that this is the driest it's been in 1,200 years. That has revealed a special monument that is four to five thousand years old. The monument is called the “Dolmen of Guadalperal” and it's made of large stones standing upright in a circular pattern. It's sometimes called the “Spanish Stonehenge” because it looks like England's famous Stonehenge site. The severe drought in Texas has revealed what may be the oldest items that had been hidden underwater—dinosaur footprints from 113 million years ago. The drought has almost completely dried up a river that runs through the Dinosaur Valley State Park in Texas. ( )1. What can we know from “hunger stones”? A.The bad effect of droughts on humans. B.The time when terrible droughts hit the area. C.Many Europeans died of hunger in history. D.Hungry people once relied on stones to live. ( )2. Which word can best replace the underlined word “visible” in Paragraph 4? A.Seen. B.Established. C.Completed. D.Decorated. ( )3. Why were “dinosaur footprints” mentioned? A.To work as an example.

词数 329 难度 ★★★ 建议用时 7分钟 正确率 /4 On October 4,a wildfire tore through a large area of Rapa Nui National Park on Chile's Easter Island. The fire caused serious damage to several of the large, ancient stone statues that the island is famous for. Easter Island is home to about 900 large stone statues called moai, which are carved stone statues with extremely large heads. The large statues were created over 500 years ago by the people known as the Rapa Nui people. Hundreds of moai are located near the Rano Raraku volcano, inside Rapa Nui National Park. The area has been named by the United Nations as an area that's important to protect. Sadly, that's also where the fire was most intense(强烈的). The wildfire spread quickly through the Rapa Nui National Park. Park workers and firefighters worked for hours to control the fire. But the fire spread easily through the grassland around the area. It wasn't until late the next day that the fire was brought under control. The park said it didn't have enough volunteers to fight the fire more quickly. The fire has burned as much as 1 square kilometre of land, mainly centred around the Rano Raraku volcano. There are 386 moai in and around Rano Raraku. It's clear that the fire has damaged some of these moai. Ariki Tepano leads the group in charge of taking care of the park. He says, “The moai are totally blackened and you can see the effect of the fire upon them.” Chile's government says the stones would have become large as they were heated by the fire, and then shrunk again when the temperature dropped. This process weakens the stones and can cause cracks. The damage caused by the fire can't be undone. “All the fires on Rapa Nui are caused by human beings,” Ariki Tepano said. He points out the island needs more government support to be able to deal with situations like this one. ( )1. What is the purpose of Paragraph 2? A.To point out the value of moai. B.To show the seriousness of the fire. C.To stress the efforts in protecting the moai. D.To add some background information. ( )2. What can we learn about the fire? A.It was not put out in time. B.It first started on the grassland. C.Somebody set the fire on purpose. D.No volunteers helped control the fire. ( )3. What does the underlined word “shrunk” in Paragraph 5 most probably mean? A.Become hot. B.Got small. C.Grown big. D.Turned black. ( )4. What is mainly talked about in the text? A.Firefighters worked hard to control the fire. B.Fire damages famous statues on Easter Island. C.Stone statues were totally destroyed in the fire. D.A wildfire tore through Rapa Nui National Park. 1. cause damage to 对……造成损害 (相当于do damage to) 2. statue n. 雕像 3. extremely adv. 极其,非常→ adj.极端的;极度的 n.极端;末端;最大程度 4. as much as 多达 5. in charge of 掌管,负责 →in the charge of 6. blacken vt.使变黑;诽谤,诋毁 7. undo v.打开,解开;消除,抵消 【举一反三】 词缀en-和-en 某些形容词前加en-或后加-en可以构成动词,意为“使,使成为;变得” [原句再现] The moai are totally blackened and you can see the effect of the fire upon them. 摩艾石像完全变黑了,你可以看到火在它们身上的影响。 [猜测词义] (1) I couldn't contain my excitement and quickened my step.

Yours, Li Hua 读后续写微技能1:解读文本,梳理脉络 读后续写题型是基础英语考查进入“重阅读,强输出,讲思维”时代的标志。读后续写是在阅读的基础上,以自己的思维方式,“输出”一篇和原文在语言、情节、基调、主题等一致的文章,其中最基础也是最重要的一步就是——解读文本,梳理脉络。所谓“解读”,既不是词汇、语法、翻译全面兼顾的精读也不是只理解文章主旨大意的速读,而是要以梳理脉络为目标的“跳读”。 续写的原文部分基本都是以记叙文形式出现的一个不太完整的故事。考生要在有限的时间内,准确找出故事发生的时间(when),地点(where),人物(who),事件(what),原因(why)和进展(how),并在此基础上理清故事发展脉络,领悟文章主题。 主题是文章的灵魂,贯穿文章始末,对情节的发展有指向性。深刻准确领悟文章的主题可以帮助考生构思续写部分的大致框架,推断故事结局的基调,从而保证原文和续写的高度一致性! 【试题分析】 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。 My husband and I got to experience a total stranger's kindness and generosity first-hand during a 10-day trip across the High Atlas Mountains and the Sahara Desert. On our second-to-last day in Morocco, we happily took a trip to Essaouira, an old and beautiful seaside town on the Atlantic coast. During the journey there, we stopped at an Argan co-operative, where we got to taste some Argan oil and honey. After that, we headed for where we stayed. We arrived at our small guesthouse in Essaouira at around dinnertime, and on our way to a local restaurant my husband started to feel unwell. He went back to our guesthouse while I had dinner with some friends. When I got back to our guesthouse after dinner, I found my husband sitting on the bathroom floor, looking very pale. He had been sick about six times in an hour. He spent the rest of the night in the bathroom, getting very familiar with the house's pipe. Our main suspect was the Argan honey—it probably didn't agree with him. At about 4 am, my husband finally managed to leave the bathroom and crawl into bed. He was very weak and dehydrated(脱水的), so I went down to the reception to buy a bottle of water. When I got to the lobby(门厅), I found a young man behind the desk, who didn't look older than 18, and explained to him that my husband was sick and that I needed to buy some bottled water for him. Our house was very small and basic and didn't have a restaurant or cafe. The young man informed me that they didn't sell any drinks at the house, so I asked him where the nearest shop was. I looked out of the window and my heart started to race. I didn't fancy risking going into the unfamiliar streets of the Medina in the dark, all by myself. In fact, I was afraid of it. 注意:续写词数应为150左右。 Paragraph 1: Instead of giving me directions to the nearest shop, the young man asked me to wait for him there.
Paragraph 2: I handed him a 50-Dirham note (about 5 EUR) for the water.
【解读文本】 解读文本要根据记叙文的六要素来确定何时(when)、何地(where)、何人(who)、为何(why)、发生了何事(what),最后如何(how)解决的。 | on our second-to-last day(during a 10-day trip) in Morocco | | in Morocco (across the High Atlas Mountains and the Sahara Desert) | | my husband and I, a young man | | We got to experience a total stranger's kindness and generosity first-hand. | | My husband was sick and I needed to buy some bottled water for him but they didn't sell any drinks at the house. | | |

文化遗产 Monday 【文章大意】 本文主要介绍了电影《满江红》的独特配乐,它是由豫剧唱腔和摇滚结合而成的,文章还简单介绍了演唱者张晓英。 1.B 推理判断题。通读全文可知,本文主要介绍了电影《满江红》独特的、由豫剧唱腔和摇滚结合的配乐,因此用这样的台词开头是为了引出话题。 2.D 推理判断题。根据文中第四段中“…the film marked the first time she had ever heard and attempted such a ‘combination’ of styles.”可知,这种豫剧和摇滚结合的风格是张晓英从来没有听过的,因此可以判断它是“有创造性的”。 3.A 细节理解题。根据第五段中“…she was also concerned that her fans would object to the combination of styles.”可知,张晓英最初对这种音乐风格是担忧的。 4.C 词义猜测题。上文提到,在古典戏剧中增加现代元素对于中外乐器的交流具有典范作用,在未来也许会成为一种新的潮流,它的前景光明,有望获得成功,故选C项。 【语篇分析】 1.effect 2.successful 3.significance 【词海拾珠】 2.direct 3.combination;combined 4.revival 【举一反三】 [猜测词义] (1) 旁观者,局外人 (2) 垮台,衰败 (3) 落脚点 (4) 友善 【句型透视】 [分析] 定语; young people [仿写] that can serve as an inspiration Tuesday 【文章大意】 本文是一篇说明文。一枚17世纪在美国新英格兰地区制造的稀有金属硬币可以卖到30万美元。这枚硬币将在伦敦的一次拍卖会上出售。 1.B 细节理解题。根据第二段的“Coin experts consider it to be the best example of about 40 such coins known to still exist(存在).”可知,钱币专家认为,这是已知的现存的大约40枚这种硬币中保存最好的。故B项正确。 2.A 推理判断题。根据第三段的“It said the coin was recently found in Britain inside a candy container that held hundreds of old coins.”可知,这枚硬币是最近在英国发现的,它被放在一个装有数百枚古币的糖果容器中。这说明这枚硬币是偶然被发现的。 3.C 推理判断题。根据第四段的内容可知,最近发现的这枚硬币的一面有字母NE,代表新英格兰。另一面是罗马数字12。这说明这枚硬币的设计很简单。 4.B 词义猜测题。根据前面的“He called the shilling ‘a special discovery’.”和后面的in the coin collecting world可知,Jim Bailey称这枚硬币是“一个特别的发现”,它在钱币收藏界有很大的“吸引力”。 【语篇分析】 1.example 2.candy container 3.design 【词海拾珠】 1.rarely 3.existence 4.excellence 8.addition 【举一反三】 [猜测词义] (1) 问题 (2)发行 (3)发布,宣布 (4)期号 【句型透视】 [分析] 宾语从句;candy container [翻译] 装着数百枚旧硬币 [仿写] worked out the solution to the very problem that troubled us Wednesday 【文章大意】 本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了在世界面临干旱的情况下,很多地方的河流、湖泊甚至水库干涸,从而让长期隐藏在水下的一些古代遗址、遗迹重见天日。 1.B 细节理解题。根据第二段内容可知,这些所谓的“hunger stones”上面标记着水低到足以露出它们的其他时间,也就是干旱曾经发生的时间。 2.A 词义猜测题。根据前句内容可知,长期的干旱暴露了有着3400年历史的城市凯穆恩,也就是干旱使这个城市被人们看到了。由此推断A选项可以最好地替代画线词。 3.A 推理判断题。本文介绍了多个由于干旱而暴露出来的古代遗迹,由此推断作者提到恐龙脚印的目的是列举其中的一个例子。 4.D 主旨大意题。本文在首段提出干燥的天气让很多长期隐藏在水下的东西暴露了出来,然后在随后的段落中分别介绍了一些水下的古代遗迹,由此推断D选项可以更好地概括文章标题。 【词海拾珠】 1.severe 4.store 【举一反三】 [猜测词义] (1) 包括,涉及 (2) 掩护 (3) 足够支付 (4) 遮盖, 掩盖 (5) 采访,报道 (6) 封面 【句型透视】 1.[分析] 人们认为某人/某事…… [仿写] It is said that he has donated $50,000 to the earthquake-hit area.
