24、Chinese traditional paper cutting is an art of cutting out pictures from paper with the help of a pair of scissors or a knife. In 2009, the Chinese paper cutting was added to the Representative List of the Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity（人类非物质文化遗产代表作名录）.

Paper cutting originated（起源）in China, which is thought to have begun in the 4th century with the invention of paper. But long before that, ▲ , Chinese people already used similar skills to cut on leaves, leather and silk. Therefore, it’s really a long art form that has been practiced in China through many centuries.

The subjects of the paper cuttings can be anything, from historical events and fairy tale characters to plants and animals. The paper cuttings are so vivid that they look like real ones. Paper cutting may sound easy, but actually it’s difficult to do well.

Modern Chinese artists have never stopped trying in different ways. Li Baofeng is a 54-year-old folk artist. “Traditional paper cuttings are often made with red paper, which seems to be a little boring. So I want to make something new,” says Li. She has made works in different colors which have amazing effects.

By combining the techniques（技艺）of traditional paper cutting with modern computer-designing, artists today can produce 3D paper cuttings. They also use more techniques such as chromatic printing（彩色印刷）, woodblock printing（雕版印刷）and air brushing（喷绘）to create livelier works.

Through centuries, Chinese paper cutting has also been introduced into many other countries in Asia and Europe. Now more and more people love paper cutting works and buy them as gifts for their friends.

【1】To do Chinese traditional paper cutting, we need the following things except _______.

A．paper

B．pictures

C．scissors

D．knives

【2】Which of the following sentence can be put in the ▲ ?

A．when it was in 5th century

26、The next day, some men took Tom and seven other slaves to Mr Skeggs’s slave（奴隶）warehouse. It was a large house where the slaves could have food, rest and wash the day before an auction（拍卖）. So they could look good and their price could go higher.

In the morning, Mr Skeggs and his men took the slaves to the market. There the traders would examine their muscles, their teeth and their bodies in the same way they treated horses or cows.

Among the slaves for sale there was Susan, a mulatto（黑白混血）, and her beautiful daughter Emmeline, whose skin was almost white because she was a quadroon. When a man bought Susan, she asked him, “Please, master, buy my daughter too! Don’t separate us!”

“I’ll try, but I don’t know if I can,” he said. But Emmeline was too beautiful and her price went too high for him. A horrible man called Simon Legree who owned a cotton plantation on the Red River, bought Emmeline, Tom and a few other slaves. The moment he saw Legree, Tom knew he was in trouble.

They got on a steamboat and left New Orleans. Tom sat, with chains（链条）on his hands, chains on his feet, and something heavier than chains on his heart. Nothing remained of what he once had: his wife and children, St Clare’s home, Eva, St Clare’s promise of freedom.

Legree came to check his new slaves and stopped opposite Tom. St Clare always made sure his slaves had good clothes, and Tom was wearing his best trousers and boots.

“Stand up.” said Legree.

“Take off that tie.” Tom found this difficult because of his chains, but he tried. Legree pulled the tie with force and put it in his own pocket.

Adapted from Uncle Tom’s Cabin

27、The workers who brought the girl to the orphanage(孤儿院) knew little about her. The street where they found her had been her home for many years. Her parents were unknown. They left her long ago. At the orphanage, the girl, like all the children there, was taught to read and write. While she was studying at the orphanage, she learned something else－to be independent(独立). At twenty-one, she left the orphanage and began to work as a secretary. And then, in 1975, while she was still working as an ordinary secretary, something special happened. She entered the Miss Hong Kong Competition and won it. This was the turning point in her life. Now her name, Mary Cheung, was known to everybody.

Mary entered the competition because she wanted to show that orphanage girls could be something. Winning the competition gave her the chance to start a new life. This led her first into television and then into business as a manager. When she was working as a manager, she had trouble with her reports. “My English just wasn’t good enough.” she says. Luckily, she had a boyfriend (who later became her husband) to help her.

Mary studied management(管理) at Hong Kong Polytechnic and graduated in 1980. She started her own business in 1985. But she did not stop developing herself. She then studied at the University of Hong Kong. Since 1987, she had spent a lot of time on photography(摄影). She has held several exhibitions of her works in many places－China, New Zealand and Paris. She still found time, however, to work on TV, write for newspapers and support her family.

The girl from the street has come a long way, but her journey has not finished yet.

【1】Before Mary Cheung was brought to the orphanage, _____.

C.Mary’s boyfriend was good at English.

D.Mary’s life in the orphanage was difficult.

28、   I am sitting in an empty football field after my last school football game that finished a few hours ago. I’m the mid-field player in my team. But in fact that’s not true now. I’m not the mid-field player now b【1】 this was my last game. It’s good to end a high school football career (职业生涯) at a high point.

I was eight years old when I first started playing football. My dad loved football, and he used to p【2】 with me at home—passing, catching, running. We used to practise almost every morning u【3】 it got too dark. He tried to teach me everything he knew about the game. “Just remember: don’t ever give up.” Well, that was a long time ago, but I still hear his words ringing in my e【4】.

I had a lot in my mind before the game today. I don’t like things to end, I guess, and this was the last game. I was talking to m【5】 and warning myself about what to do and not to do. I didn’t sleep at all last night. But I knew it was time for it to be over. But then when the game started, my mind became e【6】. I just lived in this game, this moment. I didn’t hear the crowd, I didn’t f【7】 the cold or the pain, and I never felt tired. I just kept my eyes on the ball all the time. In my heart, a soft, white light showed me the way t【8】 the goal (球门). It was a beautiful, empty feeling.

It’s all over now, and it’s really getting c【9】 here. It’s starting to snow. The sun’s almost gone, and I can h【10】 see the goal. Now it’s dark and I’m sitting here all alone. Well, I guess it’s time to say good-bye and move on.
