1．With the infection being brought under control，more and more galleries and museums are reopening.
While many museums have been putting exhibitions online，visitors still prefer to enjoy works of art in person.
Here are four major art exhibitions that are held offline.
The Palace Museum （Dec.10-Feb.15）
The exhibition，Everlasting Splendor which is being held in the Meridian Gate Galleries，marks the 600th anniversary of China's imperial palace.Over 400 cultural relics are displayed at the exhibition，reflecting the history of the Forbidden City's construction，the development of its layout，and how it has been protected and restored in the past decades.
The National Museum of China （Jan.4-Mar.29）
The exhibition，A Sail Over Miles，offers a brief review of the ancient Silk Road in ceramics （陶瓷）.It guides visitors through the manufacturing，export and shipping routes from the Tang Dynasty to the Qing Dynasty with over 300 ceramic relies，including a pot dug from Nanhai No 1，a Chinese cargo ship dating back more than 800 years.The exhibition also shows Japanese，Korean and British ceramics，reflecting the influence of China's porcelain-making techniques in local industries.
The Capital Museum （Jan.1-Mar.30）
The Capital Museum is to host Man of Infinite Refinement：Special Exhibition on the Paintings and Calligraphy of Su Shi，a calligraphy and painting exhibition on the legacy of Su Shi，an iconic figure of ancient Chinese literature and fine arts.The 78 exhibits on display spans from the Northern Song Dynasty through recent history and cover a range of media，including calligraphy，paintings，documents and rarely seen books.
The National Art Museum of China （Nov.30-Feb.10）
On show are nearly 300 objects，including paintings，calligraphy works，carved seals，manuscripts，letters and books.Donation of Rong Geng not only reflects his academic accumulation over the years，but forms the basis for his becoming such a well-rounded scholar in the area of Chinese cultural traditions.
Rong Geng （1894-1983），a scholar of Chinese paleography，educator and connoisseur of antiquities，is little known to the general public.However，his extensive studies of ancient Chinese writings and his former collection of archaic oracle bones and bronzes continue to enrich people's cultural life.In his lifetime，Rong donated to the State nearly 200 bronze objects，all of which are now housed at numerous public museums and universities.

2．It was a warm April evening.When I did some work in my garden，I suddenly felt a blow to the right side of my neck.Totally confused，I reached up and，to my horror，realized that I had been shot with an arrow.I screamed my husband's name.He dropped his work and ran to me.Ed grabbed me by the shoulders to stop me from running and told me to lie down on the couch.Then he called 911.I lay there and prayed，wondering if there was any way I could live.
The arrow had come from a young man practicing with a bow，used for hunting，in his backyard.Luckily，he was using a practice arrow，which is smooth and rounded：a broadhead arrow would have led to a different ending.
As the doctors entered the house and sat down beside me，they were perfectly calm and totally focused.
I was rushed to the hospital and shortly took a CT scan to determine the location of the arrow inside.The doctors began telling me how lucky I was.The arrow had gone past the carotid artery （頸動脈）.
The morning after my two-hour surgery，the surgeon came in.He checked the wound and talked to us about what he had done.Then he told us something that rocked our world again.
He said that the CT scan had revealed that I had a brain tumor （腫瘤）.I remember going a bit frozen but thinking，God works in mysterious ways!
The surgeon said they were almost certain the tumor wasn't fierce but it was located in a very difficult place.I was terrified，of course，but I felt like it was God's plan for me to find it.
A few days later，I went in for a second opinion from another surgeon.He said that it was a difficult surgery but that it had to be done.The tumor was about to cross the midline of my brain，which would have resulted in a massive stroke （中風）.
The brain surgery was successful，and in less than a week I was back home.All was going well for the years to come.Had it not been for that arrow，I would have died from a brain tumor or a stroke!
I wasn't lucky，but I was blessed indeed.
（1）How did the woman react directly she realized she was shot by something in the neck？
A．She cried out for her husband's help.
B．She took it easy and lay down on the couch.
C．She made a prayer that she could live.
D．She urged Ed to dial 911 without delay.
（2）What can be learned from the passage？
A．The arrow with a narrow head was shot out while a man was hunting.
B．The doctors felt it lucky that the arrow had missed the woman's carotid artery.
C．The woman's tumor was found when she went in for a second CT scan.
D．The tumor in the woman's head must have caused a stroke if left untreated.
（3）Why did the woman say she wasn't lucky but blessed indeed？
A．Because she was shot hurt by the arrow but she could still pull through.
B．Because she was saved both from the arrow shot and from the tumor.
C．Because she didn't miss the arrow shot but missed being killed by the tumor.
D．Because she could have possibly been killed by the arrow or by the tumor.
（4）What may be the moral behind the story？
A．It's in God's hands.
B．A fall into a pit，a gain in your wit.
C．A blessing remains in hiding.
D．All good things come to an end.組卷：4引用：2難度：0.5 -
3．Scientists have designed "transparent wood" that could replace conventional glass in windows.The innovation was developed using wood from the balsa tree，which is native to South and Central America，and claims to be five times more thermally efficient than glass.
The team treated balsa wood in an oxidizing bath （氧化池） that bleaches （漂白） it of nearly all visibility and then poured it into a synthetic polymer （合成物） called polyvinyl alcohol（PVA 聚乙烯醇），creating a product that is virtually transparent.
Unlike traditional glass，the transparent wood can bear much stronger impacts and will bend or separate when damaged，instead of being destroyed into tiny pieces.
The transparent wood was created by teams at the University of Maryland and University of Colorado，which set out to find a greener alternative to conventional glass-a production that creates 25，000 tons in emissions each year.
Along with contributing to greenhouse gases，glass contributes to a loss of energy.
"Residential building windows in particular account for 10-25% of the heat loss due to their poor thermal（保熱的） management capability，" the team wrote in the study.
"Exploring energy efficient window materials is thus highly desirable to address heating costs，energy shortages，and the global impact of climate change associated with increased carbon emissions."
The team notes that the bonding between PVA and cellulose （纖維素） in the wood，creates a tightly packed structure that allows for more thermal protection and makes it more durable and lighter than glass.
"Switching to transparent wood could prove to be cost efficient as well，" researchers shared in a statement.
"It is approximately five times more thermally efficient than glass，cutting energy costs."
"It is made from a sustainable，renewable resource with low carbon emissions.It's also compatible （兼容的；可共存的） with existing industrial processing equipment，making the transition （過渡） into manufacturing an easy process."
（1）How many key steps are to take to make balsa wood transparent based on the passage？
A．One.
B．Two.
C．Three.
D．Four.
（2）Among the items listed below，which ones are transparent wood's advantages over conventional glass？
①being more thermally efficient
②bearing much stronger impacts
③breaking into tiny pieces when damaged
④cutting energy costs
⑤contributing to a loss of energy
⑥being more durable and lighter
A． ①②③④⑥
B． ①②④⑤⑥
C． ①②④⑥
D． ①②④⑤
（3）Which of the following is NOT TRUE of the research team？
A．They developed the transparent wood from the balsa tree native to South and Central America
B．They set out to find a greener alternative to conventional glass because glass contributes to loss of energy.
C．They claimed the transparent wood was five times more thermally efficient than glass.
D．They concluded the process of producing the transparent wood is more difficult than that of producing glass.
（4）The passage is mainly about.
A．a new technology of replacing transparent wood
B．a production of a new type of building material
C．an innovation （改革；創(chuàng)新） of new residential （適于住宅的） building glass
D．an invention of a new energy efficient window material組卷：3引用：2難度：0.7

8．Being a teacher is not easy job. A teacher who has to play too many roles as an educator， a guide， a conductor， a director and sometimes a parent， either! We all have at least one favorite teacher more like a friend to us in our lives， but we are always sincerely grateful to them for all the love and guidance. The hard work， time and patience that teachers devote with students， without doubt， is beyond compare. They are simply strong pillars behind building any nation. They work tireless without any complaint to enrich the lives of on-going generations. To acknowledge the amazing value of their efforts， we are supposed to send them special cards or gifts on their graduation day. In this way， we would be able to deliver our thanks to those inspirational teacher in a most beautiful manner.
