21、Zhao Yishen, the 33-year-old artist, is carving a woodblock (雕刻木板) carefully, with a chisel in his right hand. To carve the woodblocks, he has to hold this position for six hours. He has been carving woodblocks since 2012. “It feels good and looks beautiful when a Chinese character slowly appears on the woodblock under your chisel," says Zhao.

Zhao is now the only full-time carver working at a workshop that creates woodblock-printed books in Beijing. As a teenager he loved to read ancient Chinese books in the library, and the curiosity of how the books were made led him to get a job at an ancient books woodblock printing studio in Yangzhou in 2011 after graduating as a law major from university.

Block printing was listed as a UNESCO World Intangible Cultural Heritage in 2009. Zhao started to learn the skill from Chen Yishi, one of the skill's masters, in 2012.

“The first step is to learn how to sharpen your chisel, "says Zhao. “After using it for a while, you need to sharpen it again.” After that, the woodblock must be put at a certain angle that is deep enough to show up the characters and also to make sure the cuts are deep enough-but not too deep. Then Zhao puts the paper, face down, onto the wood after brushing oil on the paper. This helps to transfer the characters onto the block. Once the carving is finished, the woodblock is brushed with ink and paper pressed onto it. It is ready to print.

In Zhao's mind, the inked woodblock is a work of art. After a year of learning from Chen, Zhao found a job at Zhuyu Shanfang in 2013. His carved woodblocks have been used for several books over the past six years. “I just learned the basic skills, but to master it, I still need years of practice,” says Zhao. “A good craftsman can carve an entire book with every single character aligned in order.”

【1】Hong long has Zhao Yishen carved woodblocks?

A．For 5 years.

B．For 6 years.

C．For 7 years.

D．For 10 years.

【2】The underlined word "it" in Paragraph 4 refers to _______.

A．woodblock

B．character

C．chisel

D．ink

【3】Which is NOT the key to his success?

A．Patience.

B．The knowledge of law.

C．Hard work.

D．Years of practice.

【4】In what order did the following events take place?

a. Zhao found a job at Zhuyu Shanfang.

b. Zhao graduated as a law major from university.

c. Zhao's carved woodblocks have been used for several books.

d. Zhao began to love reading ancient Chinese books in the library.

e. Zhao learned block printing from Chen Yishi,one of the technique's masters.

A．b-e-a-d-c

B．b-e-d-a-c

C．d-b-e-a-c

D．d-b-a-e-c

【5】What is the passage mainly about?

C．Zhao Yishen and his job.

D．A traditional skill--Woodblock.

22、We went into a secondhand shop to get out of the rain.

I took my 6-year-old daughter’s hand and we started to walk around. Suddenly she reached out her hand to touch a pair of shiny black shoes.

“Buy for me?” she asked.

“Oh, Sweetie, they are tap dancing (踢踏舞) shoes. You aren’t taking tap dance.”

“Buy for me?” she repeated.

“Well, let’s try them on.”

She sat on the floor and took off her bright pink rain boots.When she stood up we heard “click”. She took a step, “click, click, click.”

The sun came out and we went on our way. Our next stop was the grocery store(杂货店).

“Click, click, click…” people turned to look as we went into the store. People would never allow(允许) their daughter to wear tap dancing shoes to the grocery store .

“Excuse me, dear. Why would you allow your daughter to wear tap dancing shoes here? They make such a noise.”

“Isn’t it wonderful?”

“Wonderful? My dear, this is not the place to wear those shoes.”

“You don’t understand. When she was a baby, doctors told us that she would never walk or talk. It has taken a lot of hard work and patience, but she asked for the shoes and the ‘click, click, click’ says that she can walk,” I said.

My daughter is 18 now and will graduate from Grade 12 in June. It has not always been easy, but it has all been worthwhile (值得做的). She has taught me that it doesn’t matter what others think. They don’t walk in your shoes.

23、   The most common disease in the world is the cold. It often starts with a sore throat(咽部疼痛). You sneeze and your nose runs. You usually have a headache, too. Often you have a cough later. It’s not a serious disease, but you can feel quite bad.

There isn’t good medicine for a cold, but you can take some medicine to make you feel better. It is good to rest, and to drink a lot of water, too. A doctor once told me, “With the right medicine, a cold will last for seven days. With no medicine, it will go on for a whole week!”

Where does our medicine come from? A long time ago, people found that some plants made them feel better. They ate leaves, roots, fruits or seeds of plants. We know the juice of lemons makes a sore throat feel better. In modern times, scientists have studied many plants, and found out what chemicals are in them.

Many kinds of our medicines today are made from those chemicals. There are some diseases that we can’t treat yet. But because of modern medicine, people now live longer than their grandparents.
