21、The Forbidden City is well known for being full of Chinese cultural and historical relics. But Masters in the Forbidden City does not just focus on the stories of the past.

Instead, the documentary movie, which came out in Chinese cinemas on Dec. 16, focuses on ordinary people — the restorers of relics and antiquities.

The stories are told at a slow and relaxed pace, reflecting the restorers’ work. Restoration of cultural relics and antiques can be time-consuming, and sometimes boring. Yet these restorers’ patience and peace of mind are especially precious in a society where everything is changing so fast.

“If you choose this job, you have to stand hours of work sitting on a chair. You need to be quiet and get used to being quiet,” says Wang Jin, an ancient clock repair expert.

A touching part of the documentary is the spirit of craftsmanship (工艺) in the restorers. “Years of humdrum work requires not only skill, but also faith and spirit,” China Daily commented. “Looking for preciseness and perfection, devoting yourself to work, patience, loneliness... All these qualities come from the craftsman spirit.”

But unlike the popular idea of serious experts who sit around being serious, the documentary shows off the enthusiasm of the restorers. They play their guitars and make jokes about each other after a long day of restoration work.

One scene that has been very popular with Internet users features a young female restorer riding a bicycle through the empty Forbidden City on a Monday. While she is doing this, a narrator says, “The last person to do this was Puyi, the last emperor of the Qing Dynasty.”

Masters in the Forbidden City has proved wrong many people’s ideas about antique restorers, allowing them to realize that they are not old, dull professors, but people in their 40s, 30s and even 20s who can be quite pleasing to the eye.

【1】According to the text, what’s the main purpose of the documentary Masters in the Forbidden City?

A．To draw attention to Chinese antique restorers' lives.

B．To show people how antiques are restored.

C．To display relics seldom seen by ordinary people.

D．To praise the craftsmanship of Chinese antique restorers.

【2】What can we learn from Wang Jin’s words?

A．he often gets tired with his work.

B．antique restorers need to be patient and peaceful.

C．there is no need to do restoration work fast.

D．it takes years of hard work to adapt to antique restoration.

【3】What does the underlined word “humdrum” probably mean?

A．Different.

B．Relaxing.

C．Unusual.

D．Boring.

【4】What is the author’s purpose of mentioning the bicycle-riding scene in the documentary?

A．To remind the audience of the last Qing emperor.

B．To show the strange hobbies of young antique restorers.

C．To show that the documentary breaks from (摆脱) the old, dull image of antique restorers.

D．To encourage the young to consider a career in antique restoration in the future.

22、阅读理解

Dear Dad,

Today I was at the shopping mall and I spent a lot of time reading the Father's Day cards．They all had a special message that in some way or another reflected how I feel about you．Yet as I selected and read，it occurred to me that not a single card said what I really want to say to you．

You'll soon be 84 years old，Dad，and you and I will have had 55 Father's Days together．I haven't always been with you on Father's Day but I've always been with you in my heart．

You know，Dad，there was a time when we were separated by the generation gap．You stood on one side of the Great Divide and I on the other．

The Father-Daughter Duel shifted into high gear ( 档位) when you taught me to drive the old Dodge and I decided I would drive the '54 Chevy whether you liked it or not．The police officer who sent me home，after you reported the Chevy stolen，didn't have much tolerance for a stub¬born 16 year old，while you were so tolerant about it，Dad，and I think that was probably what made it the worst night of my life．

Our relationship greatly improved when I married a man you liked，and things really turned around when we began making babies right and left．Somewhere along the line，the generation gap disappeared．I suppose I saw us and our relationship as aging together，rather like a fine wine．

But the strangest thing happened last week．I was at a stop sign and I watched as you turned the corner in your car．It didn't immediately occur to me that it was you because the man driving looked so elderly and fragile behind the wheel of that huge car．It was rather like a slap in the face delivered from out of nowhere．Perhaps I saw your age for the first time that day．

I guess what I'm trying to say，Dad，is what every son and daughter wants to say to their Dad today．Honoring a father on Father's Day is about respect and sharing and acceptance and tolerance and giving and taking．It's about loving someone more than words can say，and it's wishing that never had to end．

I love you，Dad．

Love,

Jenny

23、   Since 2009, a small army of cats in the Palace Museum have been receiving global social media attention. 【1】 The purpose is to defend wooden structures and priceless relics against mice.

I visited the Palace Museum in the summer of 2018 to research the history of Qing Dynasty. I stayed in a small hotel in one of Beijing's hutong areas for a whole month. 【2】

Before setting out to the capital, I had already conducted some background research on the history of the Palace Museum itself and managed to retrieve an article about the famous palace cats. 【3】

In the third week, as I was walking through the western gates, I was surprised to spot not one. not two, but three cats on the corner of a porch in front of an office. 【4】 The cats ignored me, preferring to take a rest in the shade next to their white painted cat houses.

I spotted three more cats inside the bamboo garden of the employees’ exercise grounds. 【5】 The slightly fats furry cat looked like the real “boss” of the palace as he made his way over to me, staring with his sharp yellow and blue eyes and letting out short, loud meows demanding attention. He was very friendly and content to be scratched behind the ear and even given u belly rub.

For those cat enthusiasts planning on taking a trip to China's capital, these absolutely adorable security guards are definitely worth spending a day in the palace looking for.

A．This time, they played with me for a while.

B．I greeted the furry guards in Chinese, “Hi! Kitties!”

C．These hairy guards are allowed inside the museum walls.

D．I took me a 20-minute walk to the museum every morning.

24、Spanish is No. 3 among the more than 5,000 languages spoken in the world today. Even English takes a back seat to Spanish with 330 million native speakers in the world, compared with 346 million of Spanish. In the United States, college students are flocking (聚集) to learn Spanish and major American book companies are publishing Spanish-language editions. In addition, many other American companies are increasingly selling their products through Spanish-language ads.

In spite of the popularity of Spanish, no one questions the continuing dominance (优势) of English in the United States.

Then what is the future of Spanish in this country? In general, the fate of immigrant (来自外国的) languages has been to flower and then disappear. Many experts say immigration only prolongs (延长) the process. Since large-scale Latin American immigration will not continue forever, they think Spanish in the United States will finally disappear.

The mixture of Spanish and English called “Spanglish” was considered by some as a brief stop on the road to the disappearance of Spanish. But Spanglish was blamed by Roberto González Echevarría, a leading literary critic at Yale University. He said, “Those who support Spanglish don’t realize that it is a Spanish invasion (侵略) of English.”

Other experts have argued that the mixing of languages and bilingualism (双语能力) are not two-way streets. In the case of the United States, Spanish speakers tend to become bilingual, but English speakers do not. When all the native Spanish speakers become bilingual, the need to speak Spanish tends to disappear.

It has happened before. German was once a popular language in the United States. However, German immigration then reduced and World War I caused anti-German feelings and English-only measures. Today, more than 45 million Americans claim their ancestry (祖先) as German, but only 1.5 million claim to speak the language.

However, there are reasons to believe Spanish will follow a different course from German. Strictly speaking, Spanish is not an immigrant language. It was here before English, its presence in North America preceding (在……之前) the founding of the United States. Spanish is the native language of Puerto Rico who are native U.S. citizens.

Additionally, Spanish has advantages German didn’t enjoy at the turn of the century. The size of the Spanish-speaking population worldwide, the communications revolution and the global economy mean there are more opportunities to use the language.

【1】We can learn from Paragraph 1 that _____.

A. American book companies are required to publish Spanish editions

B. college students have to learn Spanish in America

C. Spanish has enjoyed popularity in America

D. Spanish has taken the place of English in America

【2】According to the passage, Roberto González Echevarría probably agrees that _____.

A. Spanish will disappear soon

A. It will be remembered as an immigrant language.

B. It will be used to do business by most Americans.

C. It will continue to find a place in America.

D. It will be used by Puerto Ricans forever.

【4】The author writes this passage to _____.

A. introduce the development of Spanish in America

B. show the popularity of Spanish in America

C. encourage people to speak Spanish

D. introduce the history of Spanish
