Unit 2 Cloning .阅读理解(2018全国)While famous foreign architects are invited to lead the designs of landmark buildings in China such as the new CCTV tower and the National Center for the Performing Arts,many excellent Chinese architects are making great efforts to take the center stage.Their efforts have been proven fruitful.Wang Shu,a 49-year-old Chinese architect,won the 2012 Pritzker Architecture Prizewhich is often referred to as the Nobel Prize in architectureon February 28.He is the first Chinese citizen to win this award.Wang serves as head of the Architecture Department at the China Academy of Art(CAA).His office is located at the Xiangshan campus(校园)of the university in Hangzhou,Zhejiang Province.Many buildings on the campus are his original creations.The style of the campus is quite different from that of most Chinese universities.Many visitors were amazed by the complex architectural space and abundant building types.The curves(曲线)of the buildings perfectly match the rise and fall of hills,forming a unique view.Wang collected more than 7 million abandoned bricks of different ages.He asked the workers to use traditional techniques to make the bricks into walls,roofs and corridors.This creation attracted a lot of attention thanks to its mixture of modern and traditional Chinese elements(元素).Wangs works show a deep understanding of modern architecture and a good knowledge of traditions.Through such a balance,he had created a new type of Chinese architecture,said Tadao Ando,the winner of the 1995 Pritzker Prize.Wang believes traditions should not be sealed in glass boxes at museums.“That is only evidence that traditions once existed,”he said.“Many Chinese people have a misunderstanding of traditions.They think tradition means old things from the past.In fact,tradition also refers to the things that have been developing and that are still being created,”he said.“Today,many Chinese people are learning Western styles and theories rather than focusing on Chinese traditions.Many people tend to talk about traditions without knowing what they really are,”said Wang.The study of traditions should be combined with practice.Otherwise,the recreation of traditions would be artificial and empty,he said.【语篇导读】本文是一篇新闻报道。文章主要介绍正在崛起的中国建筑师的代表性人物王澍。他的作品向我们展示了他对现代和传统建筑学的深层和独特的解读。1.Wangs winning of the prize means that Chinese architects are .A.following the latest world trendB.getting international recognitionC.working harder than ever beforeD.relying on foreign architects答案B解析推理判断题。由第二段中的“Wang Shu.won the 2012 Pritzker Architecture Prize.He is the first Chinese citizen to win this award.”可推知,在王澍之前,没有中国人曾获此殊荣,他是中国第一位获得国际认可的建筑师,所以答案为B项。2.What impressed visitors to the CAA Xiangshan campus most?A.Its hilly environment.B.Its large size.C.Its unique style.D.Its diverse functions.答案C解析细节理解题。由第四段中的“The style of the campus is quite different from that of most Chinese universities.

获得了人文学科的名誉学位。故选A项。20.A.excitedB.surprisedC.worriedD.honored答案B解析上文提到,Ernest 为自己获得学位而感到惊讶,而Tony却说“对于人们应该具有的品质冷静、谦虚而言,Ernest 是一个神圣的榜样”;由此可知,Tony对Ernest获得学位这件事并没有感到惊讶。故选B项。.概要写作阅读下面短文,根据其内容写一篇60词左右的内容概要。Five years ago,my father and I had a heated disagreement and really never resolved it since that time.We avoided seeing
