The Collections of Chinese Ancient Cultural Relics Abroad: Volume Victoria and Albert Museum has just been published, the fruit of ten years' efforts by Chinese experts.
The book is the first of an upcoming series that centers on ancient cultural heritage(文化遗产) collections in different museums around the world. The book details 195 out of 18,000 items now in the Victoria and Albert Museum in England.
More than 1.64 million ancient Chinese artifacts have been transported out of China because of different reasons such as wars and smuggling(走私) since the mid 19th century. More than 200 museums in 47 countries hold such collections, according to a report from UNESCO.
"The information we now have about these pieces is still very patchy(不全面的)," said Lu Zhangshen, curator(馆长) of the National Museum of China. "In order to have a clearer picture about these items, National Museum of China decided to start the Chinese Ancient Cultural Relics Abroad book project in 2005. But after we began, we found it really difficult to collect information for every piece from each museum. That’s why the first volume took us ten years."
"The pieces in the book include 102 porcelains(瓷器), 31 bronzes(铜器), 22 lacquer(漆器), 10 enamel vessels(搪瓷器皿) and so on," Liu Mingqian from Victoria and Albert Museum said.
According to the National Museum of China, the volume of the Japanese museum Sen-oku Hakuko Kan is coming out soon and the museum will seek more cooperation from museums worldwide to accelerate(加速) the project.
【小题1】Which of the following best describes Lu Zhangshen’s attitudes towards the Chinese Ancient Cultural Relics Abroad book project?

D.meaningful but difficult
【小题2】Which of the following statements is NOT True According to the text?

The president of Indonesia, Joko Widodo, is asking for foreign help to fight forest and agricultural fires in his country. According to Mr Widodo, Indonesian helicopters are only able to carry a small amount of the water needed to put out the fires. “_____________________________________” the Associated Press reported his comment.
The Indonesian National Institute of Aeronautics and Space says more than 1,300 fires are burning across the country. The government has sent about 25,000 soldiers, police and firefighters in six provinces to battle the fires.
Indonesian farmers and some businesses often burn rainforest to clear land at this time of year. The burning usually takes place during the country's dry season. But a large rise in palm(棕榈)oil production on peat lands is blamed for the many fires this year. Peat is made partly of dead plants, which burns easily and is often used as cooking fuel.
The resulting thick, black smoke has polluted skies over Indonesia and four other countries. The burning has worsened air quality, closed schools and caused any outdoor activities to stop. The smoke is not only affecting people; it is affecting wildlife. In Indonesian Borneo, an animal rescue center says some of its animals have developed breathing problems. If the fires continue, a lot more could become sick and some could die.
Scientists have warned that the fires this year could be worst ever because of a weather system called El Nino. They say the weather system has created extremely dry conditions in Indonesia.
【小题1】What does the underlined sentence in Paragraph 1 probably mean?
A.Countries should hold hands in the fight against fires.
B.It takes countries time to figure out ways to fight fires.
C.It’s too late for countries to make efforts together to put out fires.
D.Countries should work together to put our fires as soon as possible.
【小题2】Which statement is true according to the passage?
A.El Nino might help relieve the dry conditions in Indonesia.
B.Many animals have become sick and died because of the fires.
C.25,000 people from home and abroad have been sent to fight fires.
D.Some other countries besides Indonesia have been affected by the fires.
【小题3】What is the main cause of the many fires this year?
A.The increase in palm oil production.
B.The burning of rainforest.
C.The extreme dry weather.
D.A weather system called El Nino.
【小题4】This passage might be found in .
A.a government reportB.a news report
C.a firefighting guideD.an agricultural book

Cursive (手写体)is about to become extinct. Do we raise the red flag? To teach or not to teach cursive is the question that several state education departments are struggling with.
Before you read this write-up $ do a simple exercise. Pick a pen and paper and start writing in cursive. Yes,that fancy handwriting that you learned in grade school. You may not have forgotten the good times you had while writing loopy Ps and Gs as well as curly Ms and Ns. However,the chances are that you won't be able to write it as excellently as you used to. Some people are good at making the perfect loops and curls,while some are bad. I am still terrible at it.
Cursive is hardly used by kids anymore as even adults don 't write in this style,unless they are using it for their signature. Learning this handwriting was a usual practice in school for several dec­ades. However,in 2011, the Indiana Department of Education made it optional (可选择的)for schools to teach cursive writing to the students. In fact, there were 46 more states who have done the same. There are some who believe that it is high time for cursive to retire from school curriculum. After all,if we don ’ t leave the past behind,we cannot make way for new things. If you walk into any classroom,you would find children using keyboards to communicate in written form. On the other hand,fans of this cursive insist on its usefulness. They remind us that if we stop teaching and learn­ing cursive in schools,very soon most of our historical documents will become hard to us.
Where do we stand on this subject? Is it the right time to erase an almost forgotten handwriting and live in the keyboarding world? Or can we do both without compromising (妥协)on our school curriculum? Let me know your thoughts on this matter by leaving a comment in the section below.
【小题1】People use cursive when they
A.give their signatureB.are in Indiana
C.grow up as adultsD.are at school
【小题2】In Indiana school, children
A.must learn cursive
B.are interested in cursive
C.can choose to learn cursive
D.learn cursive everyday
【小题3】It can be inferred that the author
A.prefers to learn cursive
B.is a cursive teacher
C.welcomes people to show their opinions
D.is a very famous expert in education
【小题4】What would be the best title for the passage?
A.Is Cursive Writing Necessary?
B.Is Keyboarding World Good?
C.A Keyboarding World
D.Advantages of Cursive

Tigers are the largest wild cats in the world. They usually go out to hunt for food when it is dark. When a tiger sees an animal, it moves quickly and then jumps on the animals to kill it. Sometimes it can take the tiger several days to finish eating its food. When the tiger is full, it will cover the dead animal with leaves. Later, when the tiger is hungry again, it comes back to eat some more.
Tigers are different from others in the cat family: they like water and often jump into rivers to swim. Some tigers live in very cold places in North Korea, Russia and China. Other tigers live in warmer places—in India and parts of Southeast Asia.
But now all tigers are in danger. Some people kill tigers to use their skins for clothes, and their bodies for medicine. There is also less and less land for tigers to live in.
