You may visit museums or read books, but now a CCTV show may give you a more fun way to learn about them.The show is called National Treasure, it has 10 episodes (集) it shows 27treasures from 9 museums across China. In order to make ancient culture relics come alive, the show uses different ways to explain the story history and culture behind them.Although its a show about old relics, it looks modern and technical(技术的). An IMAX-sized LED sired screen on the stage shows the treasures in detail.The treasures are presented(呈现) by National treasure keepers(守护者), both famous people and common people. Instead of just telling the stories and history behind the treasures, the show invites famous actors to be national treasures keepers. And they act out, this stories on the stage. The actors even use the funny words to make their performances interesting and alive. For example, on the show, actor wang Kai played Emperor Qianlong TV viewers loved his performances.While telling the stories behind the treasures, National treasure keepers also tell their own stories. For example, an old man named Qiu Qingnian is good at making natural paints for repairing ancient paintings. For many years he has been looking for mines(矿) deep inside mountains. On the TV program, he shows TV viewers how to make natural paints.The show has become widely popular with its interesting plots(情节), good performances and funny words. It has promoted (推广)ancient cultural relics and has encouraged more people to visit museums.（1）The show National Treasure was produced to_. A . look for national treasure keepersB . make ancient cultural relics come aliveC . show the modern technologyD . invite some famous actors to act out（2）From the passage, we can learn something about the show National Treasure Except _. A . actors good performancesB . the stories with interesting plotsC . Qiu Qingnians memesD . the history and culture behind（3）What column(专栏)in a magazine might the passage come from? A . HealthB .

This experimental store offers books at very low prices, and there is no staff(职员) to require shoppers to pay before taking books away. Sounds like a book lovers paradise(天堂)！Popular Bookmall had already set up such a shop in Nanjing. The organizers of the Nanjing store report that it was a great success, enough shoppers voluntarily paid for their books. But most older “honesty stores” in China did not receive enough honest shoppers. For example, a shelf-service restaurant opened in Fujian province years ago which allowed shoppers to pay whatever they chose, but about one fifth of shoppers paid nothing. Therefore some people have speculated(推断) that Chinese are becoming more honest. The organizers of the “honesty stores” say that their goal is to encourage people in China to remember how important honesty is.Many are cared about dishonesty in China. Even at Popular Bookmall, not everybody choose to pay for their books. How can we encourage ourselves to be honest? We should listen to our conscience(道德心). This has deep roots in Chinese culture. Confucius(孔子) taught Chinese to be conscientious and honest.But there is also a great rational(合理的) reason for “honesty stores”: the more honest people there are in society, the more reasons we have to trust others. And if people trusted each other, theyd be more willing to share. We could contribute to a “sharing economy” where you do not have to think about saving or spending money all the time, but helping other people. For all these reasons, society is built on trust, not only trade.阅读以上信息，用恰当的单词完成下面的句子，每空一词。（1）Shoppers can buy _ books in the experimental store in Shanghai than other shops. （2）Nanjing has already_ set up a bookmall where shoppers can pay for their books voluntarily. （3）However, most of the honesty stores in China used to _ to achieve their goal.（4）The aim of organizing honesty stores is to have people understand the _ of honesty. （5）Conscientious and honest have greatly _ our city in many ways. 四、 单词拼写 (共1题；共5分)16. （5分）单词拼写(根据中文提示拼写单词)（1）The little boy always asks me many _(问题).（2）Reading should be a life long _(习惯) for every one of us.（3）Its good for us to eat _(健康的) food.（4）Please give me some _(汉堡包).（5）My friends want to have a _(生日) party for me.五、 选词填空 (共1题；共5分)17. （5分）从方框中选择恰当的短语，用其正确形式填空。kind of tum off make upbreak off in the way（1）He went to bed after he _all the lights.（2）Singing and short plays _ most of the programs in the English Evening yesterday.（3）John doesnt get along well with his friends because he is _pushy.（4）Both of the businessmen felt sorry as their talk _without an agreement.（5）Smoking and sleeping late can get _of your health.六、 书面表达 (共1题；共5分)18. （5分）Peter是一名英国学生，正在网上寻找笔友。假如你叫王平（请不要写真实姓名），请用英语给Peter写封信，介绍你自己、你的的家庭、学习情况和个人爱好等，信的词数60左右。 第 12 页 共 12 页参考答案一、 单项选择 (共10题；共20分)1-1、2-1、3-1、4-1、5-1、6-1、7-1、8-1、9-1、10-1、二、 完形填空 (共1题；共10分)11-1、三、 阅读理解 (共4题；共29分)12-1、12-2、12-3、12-4、12-5、13-1、13-2、13-3、14-1、14-2、14-3、14-4、15-1、15-2、15-3、15-4、15-5、四、 单词拼写 (共1题；共5分)16-1、16-2、16-3、16-4、16-5、五、 选词填空 (共1题；共5分)17-1、17-2、17-3、17-4、17-5、六、 书面表达 (共1题；共5分)18-1、
