选择性必修第三册Unit4Ⅰ.阅读理解When cultural heritage sites disappear,they’re gone forever.However,they arebeing endangered at an alarming rate by rising seas (Venice),pollution (the Taj Mahal) and overtourism (Angkor Wat).Just to name a few.But when we try to protect these heritage sites,we also have to face such thorny questions as “What part of the past is worth preserving and passing on to the next generations?What duty do we owe to the creations of our ancestors?What strength do we draw from their presence—and when,on the contrary,do they bee a leadweight,preventing us from projecting ourselves into the future?”.Humankind has answered these difficult questions differently in differentplaces.In Dresden,Germany,the Frauenkirche was an 18th century church whosebellshaped top was a landmark.In February,1945,one of the most destructive bombing attacks of World War Ⅱ killed more than 25,000 people and reduced the city toruins.As Dresden slowly rebuilt after the war,the Frauenkirche was left in ruins.But after German reunification,the church was reconstructed using many of its original materials,as a statement of peace and harmony.Like the Frauenkirche,Notre Dame,a landmark in Paris,which was destroyed by firein 2019,is being rebuilt as close as possible to how it was before,including usingthe original and poisonous metal lead for the roof.That choice was controversial,as future choices are bound to be in the debate about how to restore and preservehistoric buildings.Perhaps,no one can claim to have the right answers on preservation.There may not even be right answers.What we will do is to continue to take care of importantcultural heritage sites,as a matter of significance to humanity’s past,present and future.1.Which heritage site is suffering from too many visitors?A.Venice.B.Dresden.C.The Taj Mahal.D.Angkor Wat.2.Which of the following can replace the underlined word “thorny” in paragraph 2?A.Tough.B.Smart.C.Interesting.D.Important.3.What does the author dislike about the rebuilding of Notre Dame?A.The high rebuilding costs.B.The timing of reconstruction.C.The choice of certain material.D.The significance of preservation.4.What message does the author seem to convey in the text?A.We should protect as many heritage sites as possible.B.It is better to leave the damaged historic buildings alone.C.Historic buildings should be rebuilt with the same materials.D.Heritage sites serve as an important link among human beings.Ⅱ.七选五(2023河南开封三模)Bread making is a survival skill.With very few simple things—such as flour,salt and yeast—you can bake a fresh loaf of bread for your family,neighbors or coworkers.Baking is not just a useful survival skill. 1 In fact,baking and cooking have been used to treat people with mental health issues.Julie Ohana,a social worker,offers what she calls culinary therapy to herpatients in New York City to help them overe many kinds of issues. 2 Bakingrequiresmindfulness.When you’re in the kitchen,it really requires a certain level of mindfulness,of being present in the moment.And baking really requires stepbystep,following a recipe,being more precise.Kneading the dough (揉面团) or rolling something out,you really get the full benefit of being present in the moment and being able to relax and put aside all the other thoughts and just focus on the hereandnow.Bakingisalaboroflove.Baking is a process filled with love. 3 When you bake,you go through this whole process and it really is a labor of love and you end up with this finished product that—not only is it tangible—but it’s edible and it’s delicious.4Often our food experiences are tied to family memories and stories.We remember meals our grandmothers made.We teach our children important recipes for family favorites.Bakingisawinwin.Giving delicious,baked goods makes the giver feel as good as the receiver.To pass the baked goods on to someone else certainly can make the day for the person receiving it. 5A.Baking is rewarding.B.Baking is emotional.C.It not only makes you feel good,but it produces something you can touch and eat!D.But it’s also just as powerful for the person who’s giving them.E.It can make you feel better at stressful times.F.She explains that culinary therapy works on many levels.G.And the receiver can benefit a lot from baking.Ⅲ.语法填空(2022安徽马鞍山三模)With five thousand years of creative efforts,the Chinese cuisine has bee increasingly popular.Modern China enjoys a worldwide reputation as the “kingdom of cuisine”.The variety of natural materials 1. methods of preparation employed in Chinese cuisine stand out unequaled in the world,which may account for the 2.

The project marks the first time this "walking machine" method has been used in Shanghai to relocate a historical building.Urbanization(都市化) has continued to significantly threaten architectural heritage. In the capital Beijing, for instance, more than 1,000 acres of its historic hutongs and traditional courtyard homes were destroyed between 1990 and 2010.In the early 2000s, cities including Nanjing and Beijing—due to the critics' protest against the loss of old neighborhoods—drew up long-term plans to preserve what was left of their historic sites, with protections introduced to safeguard buildings and restrict developers.These conservation efforts have taken different forms. In Beijing, a near-ruined temple was transformed into a restaurant and gallery, while in Nanjing, a cinema from the 1930s was restored to its original form, with some additions provided for it for modern use. In 2019, Shanghai welcomed Tank Shanghai, an arts center built in renovated(翻新的) oil tanks."Relocation is not the first choice,but better than destruction," said Lan, the Shanghai primary school's project supervisor. "I'd rather not touch the historical buildings at all." "Building relocation," he said, however, "is a workable option." "The central government is putting more emphasis on the protection of historical buildings. I'm happy to see that progress in recent years." Shanghai has arguably been China's most progressive city when it comes to heritage preservation. The survival of a number of 1930s buildings and 19th-century "shikumen"( or "stone gate") houses has offered examples of how to give old buildings new life."We have to preserve the historical buildings no matter what happens," Lan said. "The relocation is a challenge, but in general, it is cheaper than destroying and then rebuilding something in a new location."1.How did cities respond to the loss of historical sites?A.They criticized the developers.B.They rebuilt the historic hutongs.C.They ended the significant threat.D.They proposed the protection project.2.What does the underlined word "it" in Paragraph 4 refer to?A.An original form.B.A new addition.C.A cinema.D.A temple.3.What does the author intend to do in Paragraph 6?A.Provide strong evidence.B.Introduce different opinions.C.Summarize previous paragraphs.D.Add some background information.4.What's the best title for the passage?A.Walking Machine: a New TechnologyB.Rebuilding: a New Option for RelicsC.Old Building Tom Down for Modern UseD.Historical Site "Walks" to New Life四、语法填空Just several days ago, a violent storm hit our community.

You can include information about its value and current state. You may research online or through books first.The Acropolis—a symbol of ancient GreeceAncient Greece is the cradle of Western civilization, and the Acropolis perhaps the most famous of all landmarks from that era. Widely regarded as the symbol of ancient Greek culture, the Acropolis is one of the most outstanding and complete ancient architectural complexes that still exist today. The Greek government appointed a committee in 1975 to undertake a complete restoration of the Acropolis and it was declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1987.The Acropolis is a large flat rock in the centre of Athens, rising up high above the city. Since it is easy to defend, it was used as a fort from the 13th century BCE onwards. In the 5th century BCE, the greatest Greek architects and artists of the time began building temples on the rock. They used marble, a type of very smooth, strong stone.However, marble does not last forever. The stone can be worn down by natural forces. and human activities are also a main cause of damage. Firstly, since it served as a fort. the Acropolis suffered damage in countless wars. Secondly, millions of travellers who visit each year have also harmed the buildings, simply because so many people walk through them. Finally, Athens has some of the most polluted air in the world, and acid rain is gradually wearing down the marble of the Acropolis.The Acropolis is a gift to future generations. It has stood the test of time and will continue to serve as a reminder of the rich history of Greece.教学反思。

Unit 4Protecting our heritage sitesCantonese Opera粤剧Cantonese opera is one of several operatic genres that originated in the Guangdong province in southern China and was inscribed on “List of the Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity”.In each opera production, the story is told through the“four basic skills”of singing, acting, delivery of spoken lines, and martial arts. These are enhanced by stage makeup, costumes, props, and the percussive beats on gongs and drums. The performance is a mix of literature, drama, ballad singing, dance, and martial arts.Cantonese opera should reflect reality as times are advancing. In order to attract new generations, our organization hosts programs and workshops for students. This allows them to experience the essence of Cantonese opera.外刊概要本篇文章介绍了起源于广东省的粤剧发展。
