1 . If it had not been for Fan Jinshi and her team, the world cultural heritage of Dunhuang Mogao Caves in a remote Chinese desert might have long been destroyed by sand, weather or humans.

Born in Beijing and raised in Shanghai, Fan has spent half a century fighting an uphill battle to preserve the ancient Buddhist wall paintings at Dunhuang, in Northwest China’s Gansu Province. The 1,653­-year­-old Dunhuang Mogao Caves are a huge collection of Buddhist art—more than 2,000 buddha figures and 45,000 square metres of paintings spread among 735 caves. It is a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

Archaeologist Fan was sent to Dunhuang after graduating from Peking University in 1963. While in Dunhuang, a remote village in the desert then, Fan lived in an abandoned temple. At first, she did not even dare to go out to the toilet at night. To protect the treasures from sand and dampness, Fan and other workers put doors on the caves, planted trees and started monitoring temperature and humidity in the caves. They also controlled the number of visitors.

In the late 1990s, with tourism booming nationwide since national holidays were extended, the local government planned to go public with Dunhuang Mogao Caves, but found Fan firmly in_their_way.   “The heritage would have been destroyed if it had been listed，” she said.

Dunhuang Academy has now photographed and cataloged online all the sculptures and paintings. “Despite our efforts to minimise damage, we can’t completely stop them from being eroded. But the digital database will last.”

Fan was grateful when her husband joined her in Dunhuang in 1986 after 19 years of separation. Her two sons grew up seldom with her accompany. “I have not been a good mother or wife. With regard to my family, I’m full of guilt，” she said. Fan, 81, retired four years ago as the director of Dunhuang Academy but continues her efforts as a national political adviser.

4 . What better way to experience the history of a site than to have a hand in actually preserving it? This was the thought behind the founding of Adventures in Preservation(AIP) in 2001. The nonprofit's founders.Judith Broeker and Jamie Donahoe, were both long time preservationists and world travelers. They had seen a great many buildings in poor condition, as well as buildings that had been“restored" without the benefit of conservation expertise.

Twelve years on, they are still involved in the day-to-day management of the organization, supported by a volunteer staff located around the world, Judith' s favorite projects have long been the ones in Eastern Europe, and she enjoys opportunity to travel there each year. She, along with anyone else who's joined an adventure, always quotes their fellow jammers, as they' re called, as the highlight of each project. The groups are made up of people from all different ages, occupations, and cultures.Yet each time, they form a strong bond and work so well together that the work becomes fun. Which,after all, is the point of a working vacation, no?

Raising understanding of people's own heritage(遗迹) is another part of AIP projects. In many places, there is so much focus on the news that not only are heritage buildings being lost but so are the traditional building skills needed to keep them. By providing training and raising awareness of the importance of their heritage, AIP is helping keep both alive.

Next year, AIP has projects in Europe and the US. There will be even more projects the following year as projects currently under development in Ghana, Armenia, Ukraine and the US come on line. Each project is also an opportunity for travel, adventure, and personal growth, and AIP welcomes people from around the world to join a project and“"jam" with them.

1. For what major purpose was AIP set up?

A．To gain wonderful benefits.	B．To protect old buildings.
C．To hunt for experts.	D．To train fresh hands.

2. What does the underlined word“jammers" in paragraph 2 probably mean?

A．Machines.

B．Projects.

C．Colleagues.

D．Organizations.

3. Which is the most suitable word to summarize the third paragraph?

A．Ambition.

B．Education.

C．Wealth.

D．Effort.

4. What can be concluded from the list of countries in the last paragraph?

A．AIP' s boom(繁荣).	B．AIP' s eagerness.
C．AIP' goal.	D．AIP' function.

Chinese brush calligraphy is one of the most important art form in China.

It origin is unknown, but local tales say it goes back over 4000 years to the time of Yellow Emperor, when characters carved on animal bones or tortoise shells.

6 . International tourism is becoming interestingly popular, and large numbers of people from all over the world come to visit famous places such as the Great Wall of China and the Sistine Chapel in the Vatican.     1     They've thrown rubbish everywhere, brought more traffic and even done serious damage to ancient relics.

As for the damage, there are many different causes. For example, the paintings in the Sistine Chapel are being damaged by people breathing onto them when they visit.     2     That may raise the humidity (湿气) of the air and damage the paintings. Damage in other places such as the Great Wall is because of tourists climbing on delicate (脆弱的) areas. Besides, roads have also been built to help visitors climb the Wall easily. These activities can cause a lot of damage to the area.

    3     Firstly, we have to cut down tourist numbers, because fewer visitors will result in less damage. Secondly, we should make strict rules about which areas people can visit and what they can do when they get there.     4     People will not be allowed to walk off the paths. Visitors to indoor places can be asked to wear masks to protect the paintings.

In short, it is necessary to control tourism at famous places.     5     And people who live hundreds of years later will have no chance to see these great places.

A．For example, special paths can be built.

B．What can we do to deal with these problems?

C．The Great Wall was built over 2,000 years ago.

D．However, these visitors have caused many problems.

E．Traveling is the best way for us to get to know the world.

F．If we do not do this, these places will disappear from our planet.

G．Their breath contains very small drops of water that are present in the air.

Learning that you want to know how we spent the holiday in this special period, so I am writing to share the experience with you.

It is a coincidence that our National Day and the traditional Mid-Autumn Festival fell in the same day this year. Thanks to the unselfish devotion of all the medical staff which managed to bring the virus under control in our country, we could enjoy a long holiday than ever. Some people visited places of interests by means of private cars or public transportation, with masks on in crowded places, while some choose to stay at home, watching films or reading books. As for myself, I had a reunion with my family and enjoyed delicious mooncakes. Beside, we also watched some wonderful TV programs to celebrate the birthday of our motherland, all amazing at the great changes in our country.

Faced with the epidemic, we still had such good time. Best wishes!

Undoubtedly, Britain is a nation of hat wearers. From taking off hats     1     launching mortar boards(学位帽) in the air,   hats   have   long   been   associated   with   ceremonies and practices. Even the history of the country can     2    (tell) through hats.

    3    (date) back to medieval England, the flat cap became a symbol of working class culture in the 19th and 20th centuries. The Edwardian era was     4     golden age of hats, when the decorations became even more delicate, ranging from flowers, birds to fruits. The pork pie hat, starting in the mid-19th century, was the     5    (choose) for many well­dressed Victorian citizens. Decades later it     6    (gradual) became a key feature of London street style. By the 1960s, though, hats faded out of people's sight because of the rise of private cars. It was the Royal Wedding     7    (hold) in 2011 that contributed to the return of hat wearing. For example, Hat Works Museum — the only museum in Stockport featured in hats and hat making — is     8    (popular) than ever, with a distinct increase among its visitors.

What marks Britain out on the world stage is the large number of hats     9     can be called its own. The variety of hats in Britain     10    (reflect) its multicultural background and rich cultural heritage.

9 . The Double Seventh Festival (Qixi Festival) is one of the Chinese    1    (tradition) festivals and also    2    (know) as a Chinese Valentine's Day. It's based    3     a romantic legend about a weaver（织布者） girl and a cowherd （牧牛人）．It falls on    4    7th day of the   7th Chinese lunar month.

The festival    5    (celebrate) since the Han Dynasty. Now people usually celebrate Chinese Valentine's Day by     6    (give) flowers, chocolates, and other presents to    7    (they) sweethearts, instead of following the traditional customs. Though Western Valentine's Day,     8    is now more popular than Qixi with young people in Chinese cities, gets the upper hand, the romantic legend of Niulang and Zhinu has taken deep root in the    9    (heart) of Chinese people. It    10    (probable) will always be told from one generation to the next generation.
