21、   A long time ago, there was a big apple tree. A little boy loved to come and played around it every day. He climbed to the tree top, ate the apples, took a nap（小睡） under the shadow. He loved the tree and the tree loved to play with him.

Time went by. The little boy had grown up and he no longer played around the tree every day. One day, the boy came back to the tree, and he looked sad. “I want toys. I need money to buy them,” he said. “You can pick all my apples and sell them. So you will have money,” The tree said. The boy was so excited. He grabbed all the apples on the tree and left happily.

One day, the boy returned, and the tree was so excited. “I have to work for my family. We need a house for shelter(居所). Can you help me? ” “You can chop off my branches（树枝) to build your house.” So the boy cut all the branches of the tree and left happily.

One hot summer day, the boy returned, and the tree was delighted. “Come and play with me!” the tree said. “I am sad and getting old. I want to go sailing to relax myself. Can you give me a boat? ” “Use my trunks（树干）to build your boat. You can sail far away and be happy. ” So the boy cut the tree trunk to make a boat. He went sailing and never showed up for a long time. The tree was happy, but it was not true.

Finally, the boy returned after he left for so many years. “Sorry, my boy. But I don't have anything for you anymore.” The tree said with tears. “I don’t need much now, just a place to rest. I am tired after all these years.” The boy replied. “Good! An old tree root is the best place to lean on and rest.

22、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．History of woodblocks.

C．Zhao Yishen and his job.

D．A traditional skill--Woodblock.

23、   How could we tell time if there were no watches or clocks anywhere in the world? The sun was probably the world’s first “clock”, except in the far north, where the Eskimos live. There, it’s dark most of the winter, and light most of the summer. But in most of the world, people have used the sun for a clock. Even today, if you don’t have a clock, you still know that when the sun shines, it’s day, and when it’s dark, it’s night. The sun can also tell you if it’s morning, noon, or afternoon.

People who live near the sea can tell time from the tides. In the daytime, for about six hours, the water rises higher and higher on the beach. And then it goes down and down for about six hours. The same thing happens again at night. There are two high tides and two low tides every 24 hours.

Seamen on a ship learn how to tell time by looking at the moon and the stars. The whole sky is their clock.

In some places in the world the wind comes up at about the same time every day or changes direction or stops blowing. In these places the wind can be the clock.

A sand clock is an even better clock. If you had fine dry sand in a glass shaped like the one in the picture, you would have what is called an hourglass. The sand in the hourglass goes from the top part to the bottom part in exactly one hour. When the hourglass is turned over, the sand will take another hour to go back again.

【1】According to（根据）the passage, there are _______ ways to tell time besides the clock and watch.

A. 3 B. 4 C. 5 D. 7

【2】The Eskimos in the far north can’t use the sun for a clock because __________.

A. they know very little about the sun

B. the sun there never goes down in winter

C. it’s too cold for them to go out to watch the sun

D. it has long dark winters and long light summers

【3】The underlined（下划线）word “tides” in the passage means __________.

A. 洋流 B. 潮汐 C. 海啸 D. 波浪

【4】What’s the best title for the passage?

A. Different Ways to Tell Time B. Useful Machines to Tell Time

C. The History of the Clock D. The Development of the Clock

Some people have very good memories and they can easily learn many things in a short time, but some people can only remember things when they say or do them again and again.

In school it is not so learn a foreign language because the students have so little time for it, and they are busy with other subjects, too.
