4 . On April 18—the International Day for Monuments and Sites, China Daily’s digital employee Yuanxi and Dunhuang Mogao Grottoes’ official virtual carto on figure Jiayao together introduced an interactive digital platform that hosts a virtual copy of the Mogao Grottoes’ Library Cave (藏经洞) to the world.

The platform was developed jointly by the Dunhuang Academy and the Chinese tech firm Tencent. It uses gaming technologies to show the historical scenes of the Library Cave in the digital world.

The Library Cave in Mogao Grottoes was discovered in 1900, with more than 60,000 cultural relics dating from the 4th century to the 11th century unearthed. It was one of the most important archaeological discoveries in the 20th century.

On the platform, visitors can role-play and “time travel” to ancient dynasties and talk with eight historical figures. The public can enter the platform through the Digital Dunhuang website and its WeChat mini program.

In the digital age, the model of “culture+technology” has been introduced to facilitate the development of Chinese culture. The digitalization rate of China’s precious cultural relics is now over 70 percent, according to the 2022 China Digital Collection Industry Research Report released by iResearch.

Institutions such as the Palace Museum have also started online digital services of their own. Artificial intelligence (AI) technology allows the public to view the interior of the buildings through the Palace Museum’s WeChat mini program.

The Ministry of Culture and Tourism has also encouraged the development and transformation of cultural intellectual property (知识产权) by digital means. China Central Television has created a series of digital collections with different Dunhuang themes, such as the Dunhuang divine deer (神鹿) Youyou. It was created based on the image of the nine-colored deer from Dunhuang murals (壁画). The public can see the divine deer on CCTV’s own digital platform.

Digital collections cater to the consumption habits of young people, who grow up in the information age. They not only protect the intellectual property of the collections but also bring the public closer to China’s “excellent traditional culture”, noted Dunhuang Art Institute.

Su Bomin, director of the Dunhuang Academy, told Xinhua that more efforts will be made to explore new forms for showing cultural relics and offer the public greater cultural experiences to develop Dunhuang culture.

1. Which of the following statements about the virtual copy of the Mogao Grottoes’ Library Cave is true?

A．It was developed by the Dunhuang Academy alone.

B．The public can have access to it through Wechat mini program.

C．It has applied the latest time-traveling and gaming technology.

D．It was unearthed in 1900 with more than 60,000 cultural relics.

2. What is the purpose of the model of “culture+technology”?

A．To show the latest gaming technologies.

B．To help cultural institutions make a profit.

C．To promote the development of Chinese culture.

D．To encourage people to explore Chinese cultural relics.

3. How does the author introduce the success of digital collections in Paragraph 7?

A．By listing figures.	B．By making comparisons.
C．By giving definitions.	D．By giving examples.

4. Which of the following statements best expresses the main idea of the passage?

5 . Learning any language is hard, but learning English can be especially challenging. Why? Because native speakers use the language in ways that textbooks could never describe. In particular, words that British people use cause many language students to scratch their heads.

Here’s an example: You overhear a Briton calling someone a “wazzock”. But what exactly is a wazzock? This word, in fact, means a foolish person, although there’s nothing about it that would help you guess that. There are many strange terms like this in British English — the Oxford English Dictionary would be much smaller without these odd usages filling its pages.

How can these odd words be explained? Part of the answer is the British sense of humor. Britons don’t like to take things too seriously, and this is evident through many British words and phrases. For example, to “spend a penny” means to use the bathroom. It refers to the days when people had to pay a penny to use a public toilet.

In an interview for the BBC’s website, British linguist David Crystal suggested there may be historical reasons for the large number of odd words and phrases in British English. He thinks that they began in the late 16th and early 17th centuries. This was a great age for the theater, when Shakespear e and other writers worked hard to keep up with the demand for new plays. The theater’s popularity also created an incentive to invent new words. With this in mind, perhaps Shakespeare and his peers are to blame for unusual British words such as “codswallop” and “balderdash” — which both, mean “nonsense”.

While these strange words may be confusing to non-native speakers, they certainly make studying English a lot more interesting.

1. According to the text, why may non-native speakers find it more challenging to learn English?

A．Dictionaries are too complicated to understand.

B．The English vocabulary is too large for them to learn.

C．A large number of strange expressions confuse them.

D．The English textbooks they use are usually out of date.

2. With the example of “the Oxford English Dictionary” in Paragraph 2, the author intends to          .

A．stress the large number of strange terms

B．explain the origin of the strange phrases

C．show British people’s attitude towards odd phrases

D．show the usefulness of the Oxford English Dictionary

3. Which of the following words has the similar meaning to the underlined word “incentive” in Paragraph 4?

A．concern

B．inspiration

C．application

D．opinion

4. What is the tone of the author in writing the article?

A．Aerious.

B．Anxious.

C．Indifferent.

D．Humorous.

10 . In recent years American society has become increasingly dependent on its universities to find solutions to its major problems. It is the universities that have been to blame for developing the expertise to place men on the moon; for dealing with our urban problems and with our worsening environment; for developing the means to feed the world’s rapidly increasing population. The effort involved in meeting these demands presents its own problems. In addition, however, this concentration on the creation of new knowledge significantly impinges on the universities’ efforts to perform their other principal functions, the transmission and interpretation of knowledge-the imparting of the heritage of the past and the preparing of the next generation to carry it forward.

With regard to this, perhaps their most traditionally acknowledged task, college and universities today find themselves in a serious situation. On one hand, there is the American commitment, especially since World War Ⅱ, to provide higher education for all young people who can profit from it. The result of the commitment has been a dramatic rise in enrollments(登记入学) in our universities, coupled with a striking shift from the private to the public sector of higher education.

On the other hand, there are serious and continuing limitations on the resources available for higher education. While higher education has become a great ”growth industry“, it is also at the same time a tremendous drain(耗竭) on the resources of the nation. With the vast increase in enrollment and the shift in priorities away from education in state and federal(联邦的) budgets, there is in most of our public institutions a significant decrease in expenses for their students. One crucial aspect of this drain on resources lies in the persistent shortage of trained faculty(全体教师), which has led, in turn, to a declining standard of competence in instruction.

Intensifying these difficulties is, as indicated above, the concern with research, with its increasing claims on resources and the attention of the faculty. In addition, there is a strong tendency for the institutions’ organization and functioning to fulfill the demands of research rather than those of teaching.

1. According to Paragraph 1, what should be the most important function of American universities?

A．Sparing no effort to create new knowledge for students.

B．Enhancing students’ competence of tackling social problems.

C．Making experts on advanced industries out of their students.

D．Preparing their students to transmit the knowledge of the past.

2. In American universities, there is a contradiction between________.

A．more students and less investment	B．education quality and economic profit
C．low enrollment rate and high education demand	D．private ownership and American commitment

3. A serious outcome brought about by the shortage of resources is that________.

A．many public institutions have to cut down enrollments of students

B．teachers are not competent enough to perform satisfactorily in class

C．some institutions are forced to reduce the total expenses on research

D．there is keen competition for resources between public and private institutions

4. What worsened the severity of the problems faced by American universities?

A．The improper distribution of American universities’ resources.

B．The increasing argument over American universities’ primary task.

C．The inability of American universities’ organization and fulfillment.

D．The growing focus on American universities’ function of research.
