2. 阅读下列短文,从下面每小题的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。
Among the most famous traditional Chinese paintings, there's a very long painting of horses called Hundred Horses. To many people's surprise, it was painted not by a Chinese artist but by an Italian named Giuseppe Castiglione.
Castiglione is better known in China by his Chinese name, Lang Shining. He was born in 1688 in Milan, Italy. In 1715, he travelled to Beijing. With experience as a muralist, he was invited to work as a court(宫廷) artist.
Seven years later, Yongzheng became the new emperor. By then, Castiglione was already famous for a unique style that combined Western and Chinese painting methods. In 1724, Yongzheng asked him to paint Hundred Horses, a silk painting nearly eight metres long.
Painting on silk is no easy task. Once a stroke(笔画) is made, there is no going back. Castiglione first practised on paper. After carefully planning every detail, he copied the design onto silk, stroke by stroke.
It took Castiglione four years to finish the painting. There is no record of how Emperor Yongzheng felt about it. But the following emperor, Qianlong, was deeply impressed and called the painting a masterpiece.
As its name suggests, Hundred Horses shows about 100 horses in different actions. Some stand quietly, while others run, walk, drink water, roll on the ground or even fight. The painting's large size alone is already impressive. A closer look, however, may surprise you further. Castiglione skilfully combined Western realism with Chinese brushwork. The trees, horses and people appear lifelike, yet they were all painted with a Chinese brush.
In Hundred Horses, humans and nature live side by side in peace, and so do Eastern and Western aesthetics(美学). Perhaps this perfect combination is why Emperor Qianlong liked it so much.
(1)、 What surprised many people about the painting Hundred Horses?A、It was painted on silk, not paper. B、It is nearly eight metres long. C、It was actually painted by an Italian. D、It took four years to complete.(2)、 What is the correct order of the following events?①Castiglione finished Hundred Horses.
②Castiglione arrived in Beijing.
③Hundred Horses was called a masterpiece by Emperor Qianlong.
④Castiglione was asked to paint Hundred Horses.
⑤Castiglione became a court artist.
A、②⑤④①③ B、②③①④⑤ C、②④①③⑤ D、②⑤①④③(3)、 What can be inferred about painting on silk from paragraph 4?A、It's easy to make some changes on it. B、It requires great care and practice. C、It is usually done without planning. D、It must use only one stroke.(4)、 Why did Emperor Qianlong especially like this painting?A、Because it was a large painting that brings peace. B、Because it showed many beautiful and strong horses. C、Because it properly combines different cultures. D、Because it perfectly reflected Eastern culture.(5)、 In which part of a newspaper can we probably find the passage?A、Education. B、Sports. C、Science. D、Culture.3. 阅读下列短文,从下面每小题的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。
Visitors to Qianhai Stone Park in Shenzhen are greeted by a special group of volunteers—robots in red vests(马甲). China's first robot volunteer service station opened in the park on March 20. It was set up by the Qianhai Administration and the Shenzhen Municipal Committee of the Communist Youth League.
Developed by local companies in Qianhai and Nanshan, these robot volunteers offer several types of services, including daily advice, convenience services, safety reminders, knowledge sharing, policy(政策)explanations, emergency support, and face-to-face communication. And certainly, like the robots at the Spring Festival Gala(春晚), they can also perform for fun.
Inside the station, robots take on different roles. Xiao Dai can take the medical items from a medical box for visitors. Ai Bao hands out drinking water, while Xiao Gai serves as a guide, answering questions about the park, telling visitors where to take good photos, and explaining local policies. Out in the park, protection robots like Xiao Chen and Xiao Liang act as safety officers, spreading safety tips and recent messages.
The most eye-catching robot is Oli, whose lively dance moves draw a great number of visitors. Oli can communicate in both Chinese and English, and more languages will be added in the future. Ivana, a visitor from Serbia, was deeply impressed."The park is full of surprises,"she said."It really shows the beauty of technology."
Human volunteers also work alongside the robots, creating a friendly and high-tech experience. According to local officials, the station provides real-world testing grounds for robot development. By opening such public service scenes, Qianhai hopes to speed up the use of smart technology in daily life and support the growth of local robotics companies.

This special café is part of a local government plan to help people with disabilities find jobs. It has become a place of hope for the city's deaf and hearing-impaired(受损的)community, offering new career paths and showing their abilities.

This job has helped Wang grow a lot. She said,"It has helped me build bravery and improved my communication skills."Her journey from a quiet world to confidently talking with people shows the programme's great success.

5. 以下是一则短文,请阅读全文,并从下列方框里的六个句子中选择五个还原到原文中,使原 文的意思完整、连贯。
A. This change in thinking shows a break with tradition.
B. But today, young people in China just tell themselves:"Ai ni lao ji! Just do it!"
C. If you use ai ni lao jias an excuse to rest all the time, it will lose its meaning.
D. So yes, rest when you are tired, but move forward when it is time.
E. Many young people use this phrase on their social media like Rednote.
F. The idea is easy to understand: Treat yourself like your best friend.
Picture this: After studying all day, you are tired and dying for a cup of milk tea. In the past, that little voice in your head might say, "Stop! That's too heavy!"
The phrase ai ni lao jioriginally means"love you, dear old me." It has spread on Chinese social media since the end of last year. A best friend always cares about you and stands up for your needs. When you feel tired, it is okay to rest. Think of yourself like a phone: After a long day, you need to recharge(充电). You can go shopping, spend time on a hobby, or just do nothing and relax.
Older generations often valued hard work more than personal feelings. Many believed that doing nothing was lazy and that putting yourself first was selfish(自私的). But young people today believe self care is not something to feel bad about. The question guiding their choices has changed from"Is this necessary(必 要的)?"to"Does it make me happy?"
But remember: Taking care of yourself does not mean doing whatever you want. True ai ni lao jimeans knowing when to take a break and when to do your duty.
In the end, lo ving yourself is not about running away from life. It is about having the energy to live your life well.
