Los Angeles native Randall Bartlett sat under the rooftop of a traditional Chinese scholar's studio, occasionally turning a page of his book.The scene was in the reopened Liu Fang Yuan garden at the Huntington Library, Art Museum and Botanical Gardens.For him, the garden brings to life the Chinese philosophies he learned from books.
Phillip E．Bloom, director of the Center for East Asian Garden Studies, said the idea for Liu Fang Yuan goes back to the 1980s with the initial aim of creating a collection of Chinese plants, but after research, they realized plants alone were not sufficient to demonstrate the essence of a Chinese garden.Eventually, they decided to model a garden on 16th and 17th century scholarly retreats (隐居处) in Suzhou.
The decision was made partly due to the fame of Suzhou classical gardens, but also because similarities were found between the Huntington and Suzhou gardens.Bloom said that Henry Huntington, founder of the Huntington Library, was a successful American businessman who used his fortune to collect rare books, artworks and to create gardens.“Many Suzhou gardens were also created by rich people who tried to pursue a scholarly lifestyle, ”he added.
To preserve the character of the Suzhou gardens, the Huntington Library sought help from Suzhou, giving rise to collaboration between American and Chinese architects, contractors and designers.In all stages of construction, artisans (工匠) from Suzhou came to work on details of the venue.
After three years of expansion from 2018 to 2020，Liu Fang Yuan reopened to the public with 4.6 hectares of new landscape, making it one of the largest classical-style Chinese gardens in the world.The additions include courtyards displaying penjing, a scholar's studio, a pavilion (亭子) situated at the garden's highest point, etc.
Now, it is meaningful to see how people from local communities interact with the garden.“A lot of volunteers come to different lectures and exhibitions about Chinese culture that we hold regularly，” Bloom said.By exposing its visitors to arts and literature, Liu Fang Yuan goes beyond international boundaries and bridges the cultural gaps between the two countries.
4．What do we know about Liu Fang Yuan？
A．It used to be a scholarly retreat in Suzhou.
B．It was constructed by Suzhou artisans alone.
C．It became the largest garden after being expanded.
D．It promotes cultural exchanges between America and China.
5．What is Paragraph 3 mainly about？
A．The introduction to the founder.
B．The fame of Suzhou classical gardens.
C．The features of a scholarly lifestyle.
D．The reasons for modeling a Suzhou garden.
6．What does the underlined word “collaboration” in Paragraph 4 mean？
A．Negotiation. B．Cooperation.
C．Inspiration. D．Contradiction.
7．Why did Bloom mention local people's interactions with the garden？
A．To show its cultural significance.
B．To detail its architectural features.
C．To promote its diverse activities.

语篇导读：本文讲述了冰淇淋的发展历史，以及冰淇淋的选择与个性的关系等。
解析：
1．G　考查语境推断。设空处位于本段段首，应是段落的主题句。根据设空处后的“The order urges citizens to...”可知，设空处应提到The order所指代的内容。G项(这一“凉爽”的节日是由美国前总统里根于1984年7月9日设立的。)符合语境，选项中的The“cool”holiday was made与The order相呼应。故选G。
2．B　考查语境推断。结合本段内容可知，本段是在讲述冰淇淋的发展历史。设空处上句提到，欧洲人于16世纪发现了这种冰爽的美食；设空处下句提到，这种甜点首次出现于1744年，马里兰州州长用草莓冰淇淋招待客人。由此可知，设空处应是提到冰淇淋在美国的历史。B项(但它直到18世纪才进入美国。)符合语境。故选B。
3．E　考查语境推断。设空处位于本段段首，应是段落的主题句。根据本段内容特别是“An estimated $6 billion is spent annually on the treat...”可知，本段是在介绍冰淇淋在美国非常受欢迎。E项(美国人现在是世界上最大的冰淇淋消费者之一。)符合语境，空后一句是对此种情况的具体介绍。故选E。

5．A　考查语境推断。由前文列举的“Vanilla(香草) ice cream fans”， “Strawberry ice cream enthusiasts”以及“Coffee fans”可知， 此处也是对不同口味的冰淇淋代表何种性格特征的列举。A项(巧克力口味冰淇淋爱好者一定慷慨且有魅力。)承接上文，符合语境。故选A。

语篇导读：本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍了安徽美食的一些历史、特色等。
解析：
1．when　考查定语从句。句意：大运河是一处联合国教科文组织世界遗产，在它直接连接北方的北京和南方的杭州的时代，安徽商人在中国各地分散开来。分析句子结构可知，设空处引导定语从句，修饰先行词为 the times，在从句中作时间状语，所以应用关系副词when。故填when。
2．fanned　考查动词的时态。句意见上一题解析。分析句子结构可知，设空处作句子的谓语，根据In the times...可知，此处应用一般过去时。故填fanned。
3．a　考查冠词。句意：据说某个商人在杭州发了财，在那里他第一次尝到了一种又甜又鲜且骨头很少的鱼。固定搭配make a fortune意为“发财”。故填a。
4．immediately　考查副词。句意： 他马上想到了他年迈的父母。设空处修饰动词短语thought of，应用副词。故填immediately。
5．smelly　考查形容词。句意：然而，漫长的行程对鱼造成了严重损害，当他最终回到家时，鱼全都臭了。分析句子结构可知，设空处作第二个分句的表语，应用形容词smelly，意为“有臭味的”。故填smelly。
6．but/yet　考查连词。句意： 出乎所有人的意料，这条鱼闻起来很臭，但味道很好。根据语境可知，“闻起来很臭”与“味道很好”之间为转折关系，应用表示转折的连词but/yet。故填but/yet。
7．chefs　考查名词复数。句意：如今，安徽厨师刻意让鱼达到一定的难闻度，然后再烹饪。分析句子结构可知，Anhui 7 作主语，应用名词，根据谓语动词allow及语境可知，设空处应用复数形式，且chef为可数名词。故填chefs。
8．is characterized　考查动词的时态和语态及主谓一致。句意：安徽菜的特点是使用大量的油、风味浓郁的酱汁以及优质的高汤。分析句子结构可知，设空处为句子的谓语动词，此处叙述客观事实，应用一般现在时； characterize和主语之间为被动关系，应用被动语态；主语Anhui cuisine为单数，谓语动词也应用第三人称单数。故填is characterized。
9．in　考查介词。句意：它的厨师专门研究当地可用的材料，如鱼、鸽子、竹笋等。specialize in意为“专门研究，专攻”，为固定搭配。故填in。
10．steamed　考查非谓语动词。句意：一道很受欢迎的菜是将咸肉铺在竹笋上然后在木制砧板上蒸。分析句子结构可知，句中已有系动词is，且与设空处之间无连词连接，设空处应用非谓语动词； steam和其逻辑主语之间为被动关系，应用过去分词在句中作后置定语。故填steamed。
