阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。 Every spring, the small town of Qingxi holds a traditional dragon boat race on its old stone canal. For centuries, local people have carved the boats by hand and passed the skill from father to son. However, in recent years fewer young people have taken part, and some of the wooden boats have begun to rot. Last year, the town government wanted to build a modern sports center right beside the canal. Many young residents supported the plan because it would give them a gym and a swimming pool. Others argued that the construction would damage the banks and force the race to move away. After several heated meetings, the two sides finally reached a compromise: the sports center would be built 500 meters upstream, and the town would set up a workshop to teach teenagers how to repair the old boats. Local schools also added a short heritage course so that students could learn why the race matters to the town's identity. This year, more teenagers than ever signed up to row. What is the main idea of the passage?

Read the following passage and answer the questions. The old stone bridge in our town has stood over the river for more than 400 years. It is not only a way for people to cross the river but also a piece of cultural heritage that tells the story of our town. However, in recent years the bridge has been damaged by heavy traffic and by flood water. Now a large number of stones ______ (take) away by the rushing water every rainy season, and the two stone lions at the bridge head ______ (damage) by visitors who climb on them for photos. To make things worse, some young people have carved their names on the bridge, so parts of the surface ______ (cover) with ugly marks at present. Many people believe that the bridge is worth ______ (protect), because it is a link between the past and the present. ______ (preserve) such a heritage site is everyone's duty. The local government has decided that more money should ______ (spend) on repairing the bridge, and that a new rule must ______ (make): no one is allowed to climb on the stone lions any more. Questions: 1. Fill in each blank with the correct form of the word given in brackets. Write the whole form on your answer sheet. 2. According to the passage, why do many people think the bridge is worth protecting? 3. In the passage, "Now a large number of stones ______ (take) away ... every rainy season" describes a situation happening around the present time. Explain why the present continuous passive (is/are being done) is used here instead of the simple present passive (is/are done).

Read the following passage and answer the questions. Last summer our school organized a five-day "Healthy Hiking Week" to encourage students to exercise outdoors instead of staying indoors all day. Every morning we walked for two hours in the hills near the town. At first, many students thought walking was too easy to be real exercise, but by the third day most of them had changed their minds. They found that regular walking improved their sleep and made them feel less stressed before exams. The coach told us two things that are easy to confuse. First, "exercise is good for you" and "you must exercise every day" are different statements. The first one is a general suggestion, while the second one is a strict rule. Second, "the students are running on the track" and "the students are being trained by the coach" are also different: the first describes an action the students do themselves, while the second describes an action done to them. One evening, a heated discussion took place. Li Ming said, "Keeping healthy is worth spending time on." Wang Lei added, "Only if we exercise regularly can we stay fit." However, Zhang Hua disagreed, saying that doing too much exercise is harmful. After the discussion, our teacher concluded that exercise should be taken in a proper amount. Questions: 1. In the passage, Li Ming says "Keeping healthy is worth spending time on." Rewrite this sentence using a gerund as the subject and the structure "be worth doing". Then explain why "spending" rather than "to spend" is used after "worth". 2. The coach points out two pairs of easily confused expressions. Compare the two sentences in each pair and explain the difference in meaning and structure. (a) "The students are running on the track." vs. "The students are being trained by the coach." (b) "Exercise is good for you." vs. "You must exercise every day." 3. Wang Lei says, "Only if we exercise regularly can we stay fit." Explain the sentence pattern used here, and then rewrite the same idea in two other ways: one with "should" and one with a gerund as the subject.

Read the following passage and complete the tasks below. Qingdao, which is a coastal city in eastern China, is famous for its well-preserved old buildings. Since the city launched its Heritage Guardians program last year, hundreds of volunteers have joined the effort to protect these cultural relics. They have cleaned the old walls, repaired broken windows, and recorded the history of each house. As a result, more tourists have visited the old town than ever before. However, some residents complain that the program has brought noise and crowds to their neighbourhood. They say the old buildings should be pulled down so that wider roads can be built. Supporters of the program argue that the buildings are worth preserving because they carry the memory of the city. Task 1: Analyse the underlined sentence "Qingdao, which is a coastal city in eastern China, is famous for its well-preserved old buildings." Explain why "which" is used here instead of "that", and point out the function of the clause set off by commas. Task 2: Find one sentence in the passage that uses the present perfect tense to show a past action with a continuing effect or experience up to now, copy it, and explain its meaning in Chinese. Task 3: Complete the following sentence with the correct form of the verb in brackets, and explain the grammar rule you applied. The old buildings are worth ______ (protect), and we should ______ (pass) the local culture on to the next generation. Task 4: Some people say, "We must pull down the old buildings to make way for modern roads." Write 3–4 sentences in English to express your own opinion. Use at least one modal verb (should / must) followed by the base form of a verb.
