Paper cutting has long been a symbol of Eastern charm.‎ There are symmetrical(对称的)designs that are usually created by some folding and cutting. When unfolded, it forms a symmetrical design. Chinese cut-outs are normally symmetrical and are usually in an even number series of 2, 4, 24,etc.‎ The oldest surviving paper cut-out is a symmetrical circle from the early 6th century found in Xinjiang‎, ‎China. From the 7th to 13th century, paper cutting became popular especially during Chinese festivals. The art spread to the rest of the world in the 14th century. Throughout the Qing Dynasty many paper cutting skills were developed including drafting and the use of smoked papers. By the end of the Qing ruling, however, paper cutting was once on the decline because new art forms were being introduced. The Republic of China later tried to revive the art in the 1980s.‎ Today, paper cut-outs are chiefly decorative. They decorate walls, windows, doors, columns, mirrors, lamps and lanterns in homes and are also used on presents or are given as gifts themselves. Entrances decorated with paper cut-outs are supposed to bring good luck. Paper cut-outs used to be used as patterns, especially for embroidery(刺绣).‎ There are two methods of manufacture: one uses scissors, the other uses knives. In the scissor method, several pieces of paper — up to eight — are fastened together. The image is then cut with sharp, pointed scissors. Knife cuttings are fashioned by putting several paper on a relatively soft foundation consisting of a mixture of oil and ashes. Skilled crafters can even cut out different drawings freely without stopping.‎ ‎1.When can the existing oldest paper cutting date back to?‎ A. about 1 500 years ago. B. about 1 600 years ago.‎ C. about 1 400 years ago. D. about 600 years ago.‎ 由莲山课件提供http://www.5ykj.com/ 资源全部免费 由莲山课件提供http://www.5ykj.com/ 资源全部免费 ‎2.The underlined word "revive" in Paragraph 3 can be replaced by "_______".‎ A. survive B. restore ‎ C. copy D. fix ‎3.Which of the following words can best summarize the last paragraph?‎ A.

Yet tourism officials in the city have published the claim that Martin Luther King’s “I Have a Dream” was written at a city centre hotel. The allegation(说法)‎ 由莲山课件提供http://www.5ykj.com/ 资源全部免费 由莲山课件提供http://www.5ykj.com/ 资源全部免费 ‎ has been made in a guide to a major art event named Liverpool Discovers.‎ ‎ A map in the guide shows more than 20 locations where famous people were born along with places associated with celebrities(名人) and events in their life. The guide claims，“Martin Luther King visited his supporters in Liverpool three times, and the first draft of his famous speech ‘I Have a Dream’ is claimed to have been written at Adelphi Hotel.” The speech, delivered to civil rights campaigners on the steps of the Lincoln Memorial in Washington in 1963, is one of the most quoted texts in history and was a definitive moment in the American Civil Rights Movement and in the fight for racial equality.‎ ‎ Dr. King’s biographer, Godfrey Hodgson, said that the suggestion did not fit the facts. He said, “I don’t believe it. If he had been to Liverpool, there would have been massive media reports, as he would have been a big figure by then. Dr. King did visit the UK on a number of occasions but he was not in the UK around the time of this famous speech in 1963.” Prof. John Belcham, a history lecturer of University of Liverpool who wrote an 800year history of Liverpool in 2008, confirmed that he was unaware of any connection between Dr. King and the city. ‎ ‎【解题导语】　本文主要探讨了Liverpool这座城市是否与 Martin Luther King有关。‎ ‎9．In the first paragraph, the writer tells us indirectly that ________.‎ ‎ A．Liverpool Discovers was created to remember Martin Luther King ‎ B．many famous political speeches in history were delivered in ‎Liverpool ‎ C．most people think Liverpool is known for the famous speech “I Have a Dream”‎ ‎ D．the claim that “I Have a Dream” was written in Liverpool still lacks evidence 解析：选D。细节理解题。根据第一段的“But few would associate the city with one of the most famous political speeches in history.”可知，作者间接地告诉我们《我有一个梦想》是在Liverpool写的这种说法缺乏证据，即D项正确。‎ 由莲山课件提供http://www.5ykj.com/ 资源全部免费 由莲山课件提供http://www.5ykj.com/ 资源全部免费 ‎1．The guide offers relevant information about ________.‎ ‎ A．the places associated with celebrities ‎ B．the families of celebrities ‎ C．the contributions of celebrities ‎ D．the daily life of celebrities 解析：选A。细节理解题。根据第二段的第一句可知，这本旅游指南提供的相关信息是与名人之间有联系的地方，即A项正确。‎ ‎2．What can we infer from the last paragraph?‎ ‎ A．Godfrey held a negative attitude towards Dr. King.‎ ‎ B．There were some arguments about whether Dr. King wrote the speech himself.‎ ‎ C．The connection between Dr. King and Liverpool was doubted by some experts.‎ ‎ D．John was unaware of any connection between Dr. King and Liverpool.‎ 解析：选C。推理判断题。根据最后一段的“he was not in the UK around the time of this famous speech in 1963”和“confirmed that he was unaware of any connection between Dr.King and the

Choice for Holidaymakers ‎ D．The Most Famous People in ‎Liverpool 解析：选B。标题归纳题。文章主要探讨了Liverpool与Martin Luther King之间是否有联系，即B项正确。‎ E 由莲山课件提供http://www.5ykj.com/ 资源全部免费 由莲山课件提供http://www.5ykj.com/ 资源全部免费 Maurice Sendaks childrens book, Where the Wild Things Are, published in 1963,has become very successful throughout the years and was made into a movie earlier this year. The book’s main character is a boy named Max who gets into trouble with his mother and is sent to bed without any supper.Before long,Maxs room magically becomes a forest,and he sails away to a land where monsters live.Max isnt scared,though,and becomes king of the wild things,but after a while,he begins feeling homesick.Max sails back home and his supper is still hot when he arrives in his bedroom. Many teachers and professors like this story and use it to help children develop creativity and imagination.Melina Davis,an education professor,said she likes how the book contains a couple of pages that have only pictures on them.“This allows children to shape the story themselves,” she said. The book contains a few of larger words that some parents worry may confuse children,but experts say those words help improve childrens reading skills and challenge them. Davis‎ said the book is well written which helps kids get involved in the story.“The book talks about what all children go through,like ‘I was naughty but my mommy still loves me’,” Davis said. The book also encourages children to face their fears.“I think its really good to show that Max is friends with the monsters,” Davis said.“Kids can find out monsters arent always the thing under the bed thats going to scare them.I think this is good because it shows that the children can go to scary places but still have a positive experience.” Since the book has been successful throughout the years,a movie was recently made and many people are excited to see it.Davis said she thinks the movie will be wonderful but it might be a little scary for younger children.“You dont want bad dreams over a book thats extremely wonderful,” Davis said. 以约30词概括短文大意 ‎_______________________________________________________‎
