Section Ⅳ　Recommending cultural highlights
Ⅰ.阅读理解
　　Every year thousands of tourists flock to China.They come to see the grand sights of the Great Wall and the Forbidden City， but often it is the hutongs that leave the strongest impression， as they offer travellers a rare view into Beijing’s past.Hutongs — the many little alleys that connect the rectangular courtyards of traditional houses — are a feature of ancient Chinese architecture.Beijing’s hutongs are particularly famous， however， as there are thousands of them.Nowadays， the word “hutong” has come to mean more than just the alleys that connect the courtyards.It also refers to the courtyards themselves and even to the communities that live there.
　　The majority of Beijing’s hutongs were built between the 13th and 19th centuries during the Yuan， Ming and Qing dynasties.To help them keep control over the city， the emperors during these periods arranged different areas of Beijing in neat blocks of houses built around courtyards.They were then able to place guards at the entrances of the various hutongs， which made it easier to keep an eye on people’s movements.The emperor’s home， the Forbbiden City， was in the center of Beijing and the homes of the nobles and wealthy citizens were in the hutongs closest to the royal palace.Ordinary citizens lived in the hutongs further away from the palace.
　　By connecting people’s homes， the hutongs in fact connected people’s lives， whether the lives of the rich or the lives of the ordinary citizens.Because the houses were built facing each other around courtyards， the families who lived there were an important part of each other’s lives.They supported each other when help was needed and shared the joy and sorrow of everyday life， no doubt sharing recipes， borrowing mops， and burning fragrant incense together when they pay respect to the ancestors or Buddhists.Because of the hutongs， courtyards were joined together for miles around creating a network of people working， playing and living together — a real community.
1.Why do the hutongs impress the foreigners most？（　　）
A.Because they are unique to the ancient China.
B.Because they are particularly popular with tourists.
C.Because they provide travelers a chance to connect each other.
D.Because they enable travelers to understand Beijing’s history better.
2.What was the purpose of building hutongs？（　　）
A.To defend against the enemies.
B.To offer the travelers a rare view.
C.To strengthen the emperor’s ruling over the country.
D.To deepen the connection between people in the communities.
3.How were hutongs arranged？（　　）
A.They were arranged according to ranks of the classes.
B.They were arranged according to people’s life demands.
C.They were arranged according to city’s geographic features.
D.They were arranged according to the closeness among people.
4.What is the author’s intention to write the text？（　　）
A.To persuade people to travel in Beijing.
B.To introduce a traditional architecture.
C.To encourage people to live in hutongs.
D.To explain the feature of hutongs.

　　This past summer， my family went on our annual vacation in a cottage on a lake.There were various activities to keep everyone busy： swimming， fishing and building sand castle on the beach.In the evenings， we gathered on the beach， having great fun.
　　However， by the third day of our vacation， I noticed my sister， Jane， spent most of her time watching videos and looking through online shops indoors.She was so addicted to her cell phone！ Over dinner， I told Jane we would hike to the top of the mountain across the lake the following morning.I stared at her，“Put your phone away and enjoy the scenery.It’s really amazing.”
　　“Well，” Jane shrugged her shoulders and answered unwillingly，“there are some bargains tomorrow in several online shops， so I’ll not be available.”
　　“Come out to enjoy the fresh air and many views.Hiking is fun！”
　　“Sounds more like punishment than a vacation，” she didn’t look up from her soup and mumbled （嘟囔）， “I can not walk that far.”
　　When I said it only took half an hour of steady walking to climb to the top， she nodded， “OK.I’ll go.”
　　The next morning was perfect for a hike， with sunny clear skies and gentle winds.I got up early and packed some sandwiches and bottles of water into my backpack along with the camera.Jane came slowly downstairs， and announced in a very unenthusiastic voice， “I’m ready to go， Jim.”
　　Anyway， we stepped out of our cottage and quite a different view unfolded before our eyes.Against the blue skies， a rough path wound to the top of the mountain across the lake with wild flowers and grass on both sides.The sunlight brightened on the glassy surface of the lake.We began from the path.
　　“I’m still wondering if this is a good idea， but if you could do it， I could also do.” She complained， frowning.

　　She followed me， her mind wandering.Minutes later， we started to climb a steep slope.Jane sighed， dragging her legs behind me.I was surprised to find some rarely-seen trees and flowers， and took many photos but Jane showed no interest.She stopped and sat on a rock， thirsty， sweaty and bored.I handed her a bottle of water and we took a break.“I missed my phone，” she complained as we continued climbing.Though unhappy， she just climbed along with me.
　　Reaching the top， Jane widened her eyes， shouting，“How awesome！” She looked around dreamily， her eyes twinkling with indescribably wild excitement.A refreshing breeze brushed the mountain top， miles of trees spread out below us and birds chirped between branches.We sat on a large rock and ate sandwiches， enjoying the sounds， the smells and the sunlight.“Anyone still wants her phone？” I joked.She rolled her eyes， laughing out loud.The next morning， Jane danced to my room， crying， “Let’s hike around the lake today.” “Sure， get our backpack then，” I beamed， relieved and joyful.

　　Every year thousands of tourists flock to China.They come to see the
grand sights of the Great Wall and the Forbidden City， but often it is the
hutongs that leave the strongest impression， as they offer travellers a rare
view into Beijing’s past.Hutongs — the many little alleys that connect
the rectangular courtyards of traditional houses — are a feature of ancient
Chinese architecture.Beijing’s hutongs are particularly famous，
however， as there are thousands of them.Nowadays， the word
“hutong” has come to mean more than just the alleys that connect the
courtyards.It also refers to the courtyards themselves and even to the
communities that live there.
　　The majority of Beijing’s hutongs were built between the 13th and
19th centuries during the Yuan， Ming and Qing dynasties.To help them
keep control over the city， the emperors during these periods arranged
different areas of Beijing in neat blocks of houses built around
courtyards.They were then able to place guards at the entrances of the
various hutongs， which made it easier to keep an eye on people’s
movements.The emperor’s home， the Forbbiden City， was in the
center of Beijing and the homes of the nobles and wealthy citizens were in
the hutongs closest to the royal palace.Ordinary citizens lived in the
hutongs further away from the palace.
　　By connecting people’s homes， the hutongs in fact connected
people’s lives， whether the lives of the rich or the lives of the ordinary
citizens.Because the houses were built facing each other around
courtyards， the families who lived there were an important part of each
other’s lives.They supported each other when help was needed and
shared the joy and sorrow of everyday life， no doubt sharing recipes，
borrowing mops， and burning fragrant incense together when they pay
respect to the ancestors or Buddhists.Because of the hutongs， courtyards
were joined together for miles around creating a network of people
working， playing and living together — a real community.

5. making　考查非谓语动词。分析句子结构可知，a sand painting与
make之间是逻辑上的主谓关系，表示主动，应用动词-ing形式作结果
状语。故填making。
6. As　考查连词。根据语境可知，空处引导时间状语从句，表示“随
着”。故填As。
7. removing　考查非谓语动词。介词after后接动词-ing形式作宾语。

　　阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构

　　This past summer， my family went on our annual vacation in a
cottage on a lake.There were various activities to keep everyone busy：
swimming， fishing and building sand castle on the beach.In the
evenings， we gathered on the beach， having great fun.
　　However， by the third day of our vacation， I noticed my sister，
Jane， spent most of her time watching videos and looking through online
shops indoors.She was so addicted to her cell phone！ Over dinner， I
told Jane we would hike to the top of the mountain across the lake the
following morning.I stared at her，“Put your phone away and enjoy the
scenery.It’s really amazing.”
　　“Well，” Jane shrugged her shoulders and answered unwillingly，
“there are some bargains tomorrow in several online shops， so I’ll not
be available.”
　　“Come out to enjoy the fresh air and many views.Hiking is fun！”
　　“Sounds more like punishment than a vacation，” she didn’t look
up from her soup and mumbled （嘟囔）， “I can not walk that far.”
　　When I said it only took half an hour of steady walking to climb to the
top， she nodded， “OK. I’ll go.”
　　The next morning was perfect for a hike， with sunny clear skies and
gentle winds.I got up early and packed some sandwiches and bottles of
water into my backpack along with the camera.Jane came slowly
downstairs， and announced in a very unenthusiastic voice， “I’m
ready to go， Jim.”
　　Anyway， we stepped out of our cottage and quite a different view
unfolded before our eyes.Against the blue skies， a rough path wound to
the top of the mountain across the lake with wild flowers and grass on both
sides.The sunlight brightened on the glassy surface of the lake.We began
from the path.
　　“I’m still wondering if this is a good idea， but if you could do
it， I could also do.” She complained， frowning.
注意：1.续写词数应为 150 左右：

参考范文：
　　She followed me， her mind wandering.Minutes later， we started to
climb a steep slope.Jane sighed， dragging her legs behind me.I was
surprised to find some rarely-seen trees and flowers， and took many
photos but Jane showed no interest.She stopped and sat on a rock，
thirsty， sweaty and bored.I handed her a bottle of water and we took a
break.“I missed my phone，” she complained as we continued
climbing.Though unhappy， she just climbed along with me.
　　Reaching the top， Jane widened her eyes， shouting，“How
awesome！” She looked around dreamily， her eyes twinkling with
indescribably wild excitement.A refreshing breeze brushed the mountain
top， miles of trees spread out below us and birds chirped between
branches.We sat on a large rock and ate sandwiches， enjoying the
sounds， the smells and the sunlight.“Anyone still wants her phone？”
I joked.She rolled her eyes， laughing out loud.The next morning， Jane
danced to my room， crying， “Let’s hike around the lake today.”
“Sure， get our backpack then，” I beamed， relieved and joyful.
