本文的语篇类型为记叙文，写作模式为“总—分—总”结构。文章首段点题，交代要讲述的是故宫博物院钟表修复师王津；接着分段具体描写了他修复钟表文物的事迹；最后一段总结全文，强调了王津耐得住寂寞，兢兢业业地做修复工作的工匠精神。记叙文的最后一段或最后两段通常是主旨升华所在，阅读时仔细揣摩这一部分才能加深对文章主题的理解。
(一)赏用词之妙
1．With objects ranging from small pocket watches to clocks over one metre in height, each of these requires its own unique method of restoration.
赏析：range from ...to ...意为“从……到……不等”，常用于举例说明，让描写更具体详尽。
2．But, through their painstaking efforts, Mr Wang and his students do more than repair the clocks — they bring them back to life.
...The intricately fashioned objects that have stood still for centuries instantly come back to life: water flows, boats sail, dogs bark, chickens flap their wings and a woman starts to spin.
赏析：bring them back to life与come back to life是同义短语的交替使用，避免了因用词重复造成的枯燥、呆板，增添了语言的灵活性。
①(完成句子)Chinese Winter Camp is suitable for you to join in, which covers various activities, ________________________________________________________________.
汉语冬令营非常适合你参加，它涵盖了从学习日常汉语到中国传统文化的各种活动。
②(翻译句子)Flowers can bring a dull room back to life.
________________________________________________________________________
③(翻译句子)Wheat seedlings turn green as the earth comes back to life.
________________________________________________________________________
　　　(二)赏句式之高
1．If it hadn't been for a three episode documentary，outsiders would never have known that the plainly dressed people working here are masters of their craft, who have spent their lives restoring precious antiques.
赏析：本句中运用了if引导的虚拟条件句、that引导的宾语从句及who引导的非限制性定语从句。各种高级句式搭配使用，彰显了作者深厚的写作功底，同时，起到了较好的表意效果。
2．Even if every clock in the Palace Museum were restored, there would still be work to do, because restoration would probably need to begin again on the clocks that were repaired long ago.
赏析：本句中先是运用even if引导的让步状语从句描述一种假设的情景，然后又使用副词still引出新的情况，并用because引导的原因状语从句做出解释。前后句之间逻辑顺畅、过渡自然。
①We might have found a better hotel ____________________ a few more kilometers.
如果我们开车多走几公里，就有可能找到一个更好的宾馆。
②____________________________________________________________， he decides to stay in the mountain school, __________________________ more children have a brighter future.
即使他知道回到城市里更舒适，但他仍决定留在山区学校，因为他想帮助更多的孩子拥有更光明的未来。
　　　(三)赏修辞之功
In today's fast paced world, the saying that “time waits for no man” has never seemed more apt.
赏析：此处引用了谚语“time waits for no man(时间不等人)”。谚语是一种语言的精华，寓意深刻，表达隽永。在写作中适当地引用一些谚语，不仅可以增强语言的表达效果，而且还能为文章增辉添彩，同时更明确地表明自己的观点态度。
①Actions speak louder than words.
________________________________________________________________________
②Well begun, half done.
________________________________________________________________________
③Failure is the mother of success.
________________________________________________________________________
　　　 (四)赏描摹之韵(场景描写)
The intricately fashioned objects that have stood still for centuries instantly come back to life: water flows, boats sail, dogs bark, chickens flap their wings and a woman starts to spin.
赏析：此处stood still for centuries 与后面的instantly come back to life通过把“已经静止了几个世纪”与“瞬间复活”进行对比，同时搭配后面的water flows, boats sail, dogs bark, chickens flap their wings and a woman starts to spin，为我们呈现了一幅生动的动态画面：水流动着，船航行着，狗吠叫着，鸡拍动着翅膀，一个女人纺着线，生动形象地展示出钟表修复大师王津通过修复工作使古老的巨型大钟焕发新的生命活力的场景。
①When I reached the place, the storm was at its fiercest and the countryside __________________________________ (被狂舞着的闪电照亮)．
②The band started playing an energetic samba beat, the dancers twisted and turned, and the crowd ________________________________.

The Forbidden City is well-known for being full of Chinese cultural and historical relics.But Masters in the Forbidden City (《我在故宫修文物》) does not just focus on the stories of the past.Instead, the documentary film, which came out in Chinese cinemas on December 16, 2016, focuses on ordinary people — the restorers of relics and antiquities (古董)．
The stories are told at a slow and relaxing 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 in the restorers.“Years of humdrum work requires not only skill, but also faith and spirit，” China Daily commented.“Looking for precision and perfection, devoting yourself to work, patience, endurance (忍耐力) ...All these qualities come from the ‘craftsman spirit’．”
But unlike the popular idea of serious experts who sit around being serious, the documentary shows 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 many people's ideas about antique restorers wrong, 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.
语篇解读：本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了纪录片《我在故宫修文物》。
1．According to the text, what's the main purpose of the documentary Masters in the Forbidden City

At Beijing's Palace Museum, it sometimes seems that time stands still, but the clocks keep ticking at a small workshop.This is where Qi Haonan works.As the fourth generation to deal with ancient clocks at the museum, Qi has returned more than 100 timepieces to their former glory.
“Restoring such treasures doesn't mean making them look brand new.Through cleaning and restoration, I try to make the clocks return to their former form, restoring their mechanical and performance functions，” the 43-year-old restorer says.
Born in Beijing in 1981, Qi graduated from the capital's North China University of Technology in 2004, majoring in mechanical automation.In 2005, he joined the cultural relics restoration department at the Palace Museum, becoming an apprentice (学徒) of Wang, the museum's third generation watchmaker.“What amazes me most about these clocks is that they are mechanical wonders combining technology and art.In the beginning, everything in the palace was fresh to me.It made me excited to even think about repairing clocks，” Qi says.
But reality soon weakened his excitement.There is an apprenticeship rule: For the first year, you can look, but don't touch.“Clock restoration includes too many details.Being in a hurry can do a great deal of damage，” he says.
From 8 a．m.to 5 p．m.every day in the apprenticeship year, Qi did research by checking and taking apart watches and clocks collected from his friends.At the end of the year, he could finally get his hands on a small French clock in the museum.He still remembers the excitement when the hands of the French clock began to move, which took him a month to restore.
“Now I have two apprentices.They both have their unique skills.These skills will make us better at restoring the treasures，” Qi says.

Ⅱ.阅读七选五
Craftsmanship requires a great deal of time, patience and effort. 9 Traditionally, craftsmen develop their skills through apprenticeship to those masters of the craft who came before them.Although we don't often work that way in this day and age, there are a few things that we can do to emulate (努力赶上) the process.
Practice every day, design something new, and walk through a tutorial work on a personal project.Whatever it takes to get you working with the tools of your trade each day, the more you do something, the better (and faster) you become at doing it. 10
Learn to accept criticism and react appropriately.People have a hard time taking criticism of their work.You put so much effort into a piece.It can be difficult to hear that what you have done is not good enough. 11 Criticism isn't personal.You and your critics have the same goal — a quality product.
12 As I mentioned earlier, this is where all of the difference is made.A true artisan is careful about the details.Take the time to add polish and style to the small things.That can easily go overlooked.Attentiveness to these details raises the quality of our work.
Design for the future.Items that exhibit the quality of craftsmanship are timeless.They are built well, and built to last. 13 There are always new features in the software we use.People develop new tools that give us more possibilities.But despite the ever-changing face of this industry, it is possible to do work that has longevity.
A．Pay attention to the details.
B．Participate in quality discussion.
C．Trends and costumes change rapidly.
D．Building quality reputations is the key to building craftsmanship.
E．However, nothing will help you improve so much as a critic.
F．Practice is the most important part of developing the quality of craftsmanship.
G．So becoming a real artisan requires your continuous development of your craft.
语篇解读：本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了做哪些事情可以帮助工匠提高技能。
9．选G　根据上文“Craftsmanship requires a great deal of time, patience and effort.”可知， 制作工艺需要大量的时间、耐心和努力，即要想成为一个真正的工匠，就要不断地提高自己的技能。G项符合语境，与上文为因果关系。
10．选F　根据空前一句可知，无论你每天如何使用这些工具，你做的越多，你就会做得越好。F项“实践是提高工艺质量的最重要部分”符合语境，其中的Practice呼应do something。F项总结上文，说明实践的重要作用。
11．选E　根据上文“People have a hard ...is not good enough.”可知，人们很难接受对他们工作的批评。下文讲述，批评不是针对你个人，你和你的批评者拥有相同的目标：一个高质量的产品。所以空处与上文为转折关系且衔接下文，说明批评者对于工匠的帮助。E项“然而，没有什么比批评者更能敦促你进步了”符合语境。critic是关键词。
12．选A　根据下文“A true artisan is ...the quality of our work.”可知，本段主要在讲述注重细节。A项“注重细节”能体现本段主旨。
13．选C　上文“Items that exhibit the quality of craftsmanship are timeless.They are built well, and built to last.”讲述，精工细作的物品是永恒的，它们建造得很好，经得起时间的考验。下文“There are always new features in the software we use.” 讲述，我们使用的软件总是有新的功能。所以空处说明与精工细作的物品相比，很多东西都是在快速变化的。C项“潮流和服装变化迅速”正是体现了变化迅速的两个方面。1 / 4

Practice every day, design something new, and walk through a tutorial work on a personal project.Whatever it takes to get you working with the tools of your trade each day, the more you do something, the better (and faster) you become at doing it.__10__
Learn to accept criticism and react appropriately.People have a hard time taking criticism of their work.You put so much effort into a piece.It can be difficult to hear that what you have done is not good enough.__11__ Criticism isn't personal.You and your critics have the same goal — a quality product.
__12__ As I mentioned earlier, this is where all of the difference is made.A true artisan is careful about the details.Take the time to add polish and style to the small things.That can easily go overlooked.Attentiveness to these details raises the quality of our work.
Design for the future.Items that exhibit the quality of craftsmanship are timeless.They are built well, and built to last.__13__ There are always new features in the software we use.People develop new tools that give us more possibilities.But despite the ever changing face of this industry, it is possible to do work that has longevity.
A．Pay attention to the details.
B．Participate in quality discussion.
C．Trends and costumes change rapidly.
D．Building quality reputations is the key to building craftsmanship.

F．Practice is the most important part of developing the quality of craftsmanship.
G．So becoming a real artisan requires your continuous development of your craft.

11．选E　根据上文“People have a hard ...is not good enough.”可知，人们很难接受对他们工作的批评。下文讲述，批评不是针对你个人，你和你的批评者拥有相同的目标：一个高质量的产品。所以空处与上文为转折关系且衔接下文，说明批评者对于工匠的帮助。E项“然而，没有什么比批评者更能敦促你进步了”符合语境。critic是关键词。
12．选A　根据下文“A true artisan is ...the quality of our work.”可知，本段主要在讲述注重细节。A项“注重细节”能体现本段主旨。
