第二部分：阅读理解（共10小题；每小题2.5分，满分25分）
阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。
A
Mei Lanfang (1894–1961) was born into a family with a long tradition of Peking and Kunqu Opera performance. From childhood, he was immersed in the rich rhythms and vivid storytelling of the stage, and by the age of eight, he had begun rigorous daily training in Peking Opera, mastering basic skills like singing, recitation, acting and acrobatics. As a young man, he faced a common challenge for performers playing female roles: developing expressive eye movements that could convey deep emotion to audiences, even in large theatres. At 17, he came up with a creative solution: he kept a flock of pigeons and trained them to fly high in the sky. Every day, he watched the pigeons soar, tracking their movements with focused eyes—a practice that gradually sharpened his gaze and gave him the lively, expressive eyes that became a signature of his art. His relentless hard work and unwavering dedication soon turned him into one of the most promising young artists in Peking Opera.
Mei Lanfang was far more than a gifted performer; he was also a bold innovator who pushed the boundaries of traditional opera. He introduced new stage designs that added depth to performances, experimented with fresh singing styles to enrich vocal expression, and revolutionized make-up and costume design. These changes allowed for more vivid and nuanced depictions of female characters, making his roles feel more human and relatable to audiences. His innovations did not go unnoticed; they contributed greatly to the evolution of Peking Opera, inspiring generations of artists who came after him.
From his early performances as a child actor to his final years, Mei Lanfang dedicated nearly 60 years to promoting and developing Peking Opera. He performed across China and even abroad, helping to introduce this traditional art form to the world. His lifelong devotion, combined with his artistic genius, has made him one of the most celebrated and influential Peking Opera artists of all time. Today, his legacy lives on in the performances of countless artists, a testament to the power of passion and innovation in preserving and enriching cultural heritage.
36. Why did Mei Lanfang train pigeons at the age of 17
A. To raise them as pets to reduce training pressure.
B. To develop expressive eye movements for his roles.
C. To sell them to earn money for opera training.
D. To prepare for traditional pigeon-raising competitions.
37. The underlined word “nuanced” in Paragraph 2 is closest in meaning to ______.
A. complex and subtle B. simple and basic
C. dull and boring D. old-fashioned and traditional
38. What can we learn about Mei Lanfang from the passage
A. He only focused on traditional opera styles and rejected changes.
B. His innovations in costume design had little impact on Peking Opera.
C. He spent nearly 60 years promoting Peking Opera both at home and abroad.
D. He stopped performing in his later years to focus only on teaching.
39. What is the main theme of the passage
A. The history and development of Peking Opera in China.
B. Mei Lanfang’s family background and early training experiences.
C. Mei Lanfang’s lifelong artistic journey and contributions to Peking Opera.
D. The challenges faced by female role performers in traditional opera.

A. Doubtful and critical. B. Admiring and respectful.

B
In the digital era, traditional culture is encountering new opportunities and challenges. With the help of digital technologies like virtual reality (VR), augmented reality (AR) and short videos, it has broken the limitations of time and space, achieving innovative dissemination. This not only makes traditional culture more popular among young people but also promotes its better inheritance and development in a modern way.
Digital technology has brought various innovative forms for the dissemination of traditional culture. For example, many museums have launched virtual exhibition halls using VR technology, allowing people to visit museums online without leaving their homes and experience cultural relics in a more intuitive and vivid way. AR technology has been widely applied to the protection of traditional cultural heritage: people can scan cultural relics or historical sites with mobile phones to obtain detailed explanations and 3D models, which deepens their understanding of traditional culture. In addition, short videos and live broadcasts have become important channels for cultural dissemination. Many inheritors of traditional crafts and artists use these platforms to show traditional skills such as paper-cutting, jade carving and Peking Opera, attracting a large number of young audiences and arousing their strong interest in traditional culture.
The digital dissemination of traditional culture is of great significance. It expands the scope of cultural dissemination, enabling traditional culture to spread to all parts of the world quickly and enhancing its international influence. It also enriches the forms of cultural inheritance, making traditional culture no longer "old-fashioned" but more fashionable and accessible, which helps attract young people to participate in cultural inheritance. Besides, digitizing fragile cultural relics and intangible cultural heritage helps protect them from damage or loss.
However, there are some shortcomings. Some digital works only pursue form innovation but lack in-depth excavation of cultural connotation. The shortage of professional talents proficient in both traditional culture and digital technology also restricts high-quality development. Moreover, uneven digital infrastructure makes it hard for people in remote areas to access digital cultural resources. To solve these problems, targeted measures are needed to promote the high-quality digital dissemination of traditional culture.
41. What helps traditional culture realize innovative dissemination in the digital era
A. Traditional cultural inheritors alone.
B. Digital technologies such as VR, AR and short videos.
C. Only virtual exhibition halls of museums.
D. Offline cultural activities.
42. The underlined word “dissemination” in Paragraph 1 probably means ______.
A. protection B. creation C. change D. spread
43. What can we infer from the passage
A. Digital technology makes traditional culture less popular among the old.
B. All digital works of traditional culture are of high quality.
C. Young people are more willing to accept traditional culture through digital ways.
D. Remote areas have perfect digital infrastructure for cultural dissemination.
44. What can we learn from the passage
A. Professional talents are important for the digital dissemination of traditional culture.
B. Traditional culture is no longer popular among young people.
C. Digital technology has no disadvantages in traditional culture dissemination.
D. Digital infrastructure in all areas is well-developed.
45. What is the main idea of the passage
A. The advantages of digital technology in daily life.
B. The influence of digital technology on traditional culture dissemination.
C. The ways to protect traditional cultural heritage.
D. The challenges traditional culture faces in the digital era.

第四部分 书面表达
Dear Peter,
I’m glad to receive your letter and know you’re interested in Tianjin’s traditional crafts. I’d like to introduce Clay Figure Zhang to you.
Clay Figure Zhang is a famous folk art with a long history. Craftsmen use soft clay and skillful hands to create lively figures. These works show the real life and folk customs of Tianjin people in different times, telling the history and culture of our city.
I strongly recommend the documentary Master of Time. It shows the lifelong concentration and perseverance of Chinese craftsmen, helping you understand the spirit of craftsmanship.
In my view, these traditional crafts are valuable cultural treasures. They connect the past and the present. We should value them and pass them on to the younger generation.
Yours sincerely,
Li Jin
