Asia’s sports shine brightly at the Hangzhou Asian Games (亚运会)
Running from Sept 23 to Oct 8, the Hangzhou Asian Games have 40 sports．But there are only 32 sports in the Paris Olympic Games (奥运会) in 2024．Why do the Hangzhou Asian Games have more sports
According to the International Olympic Committee (国际奥委会), sports in the Olympic Games should be popular enough．For example, for a men’s sport to be in the Olympics, it should be played in at least 75 countries and on four continents (洲)．For a women’s sport, it is at least 40 countries and on three continents．On the other hand, the Hangzhou Asian Games need to have some sports that are only popular in some parts of Asia.
Kabaddi (卡巴迪) and sepak takraw (藤球) are two examples.
Kabaddi, with a history of over 4,000 years, started in Asia．As the sport version of the game “eagle catching chickens (老鹰捉小鸡)”, Kabaddi only needs an area that is 13 meters long and 10 meters wide．Sepak takmw is also a sport that first became popular in Asia．It is something like the traditional Chinese shuttlecock kicking (踢花毽).
“If these ‘non-Olympic’ sports can shine brightly at the Asian Games, it will be helpful to make the world know them better,” reported Xinhua.
41．How many more sports does the Hangzhou Asian Games have than the 2024 Olympic games
A．40.B．32.C．8.D．15.
42．Which is True about Kabaddi
A．It started in Australia B．It is popular in Asia.
C．It is popular all over the world.D．It needs a football playground to play.
43．Where may you read the passage most probably (最大可能)
A．A science book.B．A storybook.C．A newspaper.D．A textbook.
B
Brought out on Aug 30, a three-episode web series (三集网剧) called Escape From the British Museum (《逃出大英博物馆》) has become a popular online with its touching and creative (有创意的) story.
In the series, a Chinese cultural artifact (文物) comes to life and “runs away” from the British Museum and goes back to China．She runs away from the British Museum and meets a Chinese reporter named Zhang Yong’an who helps her return to China.
The series, created by Chinese vloggers (视频博主) Jianbing Guozai and Xiatian Meimei, looks to catch people’s attention to Chinese artifacts that are kept out of China．To get ready for the TV show, the two stopped making their own videos for three months and went to the UK to learn about the story of the Chinese jade teapot (玉壶).
Many people have been touched by the lines in the series, such as “My family, I have been lost for a long time,” and “As long as I’m with my family, I’m safe”．Also, the face of the “jade teapot” is dirty, and she is surprised by how big the reporter’s house is compared to her own place—a crowded cabinet (陈列柜)．People say this shows that the British Museum doesn’t take good care of the artifacts.
In mid-August, it was reported that more than 2,000 artifacts from the British Museum were “missing, stolen or damaged (损坏的)”．This has caused a heated discussion on social media in China, calling for the return of Chinese artifacts.
44．Which is the correct meaning of the underlined word “lines”
A．线 B．队伍 C．台词 D．表演
45．Which of the following is True according to the passage
A．The series started on August 30.
B．There are 2,000 Chinese artifacts in the British Museum.
C．The “jade teapot” had a big cabinet in the British Museum
D．A real Chinese cultural artifact was stolen (偷) from the British Museum.
46．Why do the two vloggers make the series
A．They like to make popular videos.
B．The government (政府) asked them to do so.
C．They want to draw people’s eyes to their videos.
D．They want more care about the lost Chinese artifacts.
C
One day, while our cab (出租马车) was waiting outside a park, a dirty old cab drove up beside us．The horse was an old chestnut (栗色马)．Suddenly, she looked at me and said, “Black Beauty, is that you ”
It was Ginger! But how different she was! She was thin and tired from too much hard work．She looked unhappy and she had a bad cough．She told me her sad story．She had a year’s rest and then a gentleman bought her．For a while, she got on very well．Then one day after a long running, her old problem returned, and her back hurt again．They bought and sold her several times after that.
“Then at last,” she said, “a man who has a lot of cabs and horses bought me．I work hard, all week, with no rest on Sundays．I wish I was dead.” I was very sad to hear this．I put my nose up to Ginger’s, but I didn’t know what to say to her．She said, “Black Beauty, you are my only friend.” Just then, her driver came back, and they drove off．I felt very sad indeed to see Ginger like this.
A short time after this, I saw a cart (运货马车) with a dead horse in it．It was a chestnut horse with a long, thin neck．I think it was Ginger．I hope so, for then all her problems were over.
47．From the story, we know Black Beauty is ________.
A．a boy B．a horse C．a driver D．a beautiful lady
48．The underlined words “her old problem” in Paragraph 2 refer to (所指)________.
A．her cough B．her blindness C．her laziness D．her backache
49．Why did Black Beauty hope it was Ginger when he saw the dead horse
A．Because he wasn’t Ginger’s friend.
B．Because Ginger doesn’t want to live.
C．Because the master didn’t need Ginger any more.
D．Because only death could free Ginger from her hard life.
五、还原句子（共4小题；每小题1.5分，满分6分）

Not long ago, a deputy to the National People’s Congress (人大代表) advised having fewer English classes but more traditional (传统的) Chinese classes in school． 50 Officers of the Ministry of Education (教育部) replied that they would strengthen (加强) the teaching of traditional Chinese culture but English language courses would still be kept at 7%, reported China Daily.

In this age of globalization (全球化), English is still the most used language in the world． 52 If you can show traditional Chinese culture to your foreign friends in English, how proud and helpful you can be!
