It was found only in Tibet, China. It started from the Tang dynasty. Its content touches every aspect (方面) of Tibetan history, politics, culture, social life and so on. Thang-ga paintings show Tibetan culture and peoples lives. In recent years, Thang-ga paintings have caught the publics attention. At the same time, the Chinese government has also tried hard to protect the art.Most of the Thang-ga paintings handed down from ancient times were created by Tibetan Buddhism (佛教). They are bung in the hall for worship (崇拜). The colour of Thang-ga paintings looks wonderful and special. Because of the special environment of Tibet and the excellent skills of artists, the paints used in Thang-ga are different from other paints. Thang-ga painters traditionally divide paints into nine categories: soil, stone, water, fire, wood, grass, flower, bone and gemstone (宝石). These natural paints can also be categorized into seven colours as white, yellow, red, blue, green, black and purple.In the past, Thang-ga was made from minerals like gold and silver, as well as some plants. The paints were made by hand. It usually took a long period to finish a Thang-ga painting, from half a year to more than a decade, that is, 10 years. Though the work was hard and needed patience, the beautiful colours could last for hundreds of years.However, with the development of technology, people now use cheaper and more easily-made chemicals to make Thang-ga paints. The traditional paints used in Thang-ga paintings took a lot of work and they were made in many secret ways. Later people stopped making the paints and forgot about them. So the skills needed to make them were almost lost. The traditional Thang-ga paintings are difficult to find now.（1）From Thang-ga, we can see Tibetan _.history culture social life politics building stylesA . B . C . D . （2）The underlined word categories in Paragraph 2 has a similar meaning with _. A . waysB . skillsC . coloursD . kinds（3）Which of the following about Thang-ga is NOT true? A . Thang-ga is a special and unusual kind of art.B . Thang-ga was found only in the Tang dynasty.C . The Thang-ga paintings are hung in the hall for worship.D . The Thang-ga paints were made by hand in the past.（4）Why are the traditional Thang-ga paintings difficult to find now? A . Because their paints couldnt last for long.B . Because the government doesnt allow to make them.C . Because the skills needed to make them were almost lost.D . Because the technology is not good enough to make them.13. （16分）阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。DThe Year of the Goat was a main reason for the low newborns in 2015, a report said.There were 16.55 million babies born in China last year, about 320,000 fewer than 2014, the Year of the Horse, it said. China began to allow couples where one partner was an only child to have a second child in late 2013, which made 11 million couples eligible (符合条件的).People expected the policy to result in 1 million more births compared with 2014. However, that did not happen. There is an old Chinese saying that 9 out of 10 people born in the Year of the Goat are unlucky in their lives.It was reported that the decline (下降) was mainly because of the Year of the Goat. China will likely welcome 17.5 to 21 million newborns yearly in the next five years.In 2015, the number of women aged 15 to 49, considered to be of childbearing age, fell by 5 million from 2014, In addition, the group between 20 and 29 years old, who are main childbearing people, has declined by 1.5 million, the report said.Among babies born last year, the number of first children dropped by 850,000 from 2014, or 4.1 percent, it said. At the same time, the number of the second children increased by 450,000.The number of Chinese women of childbearing age reached the highest point in 2011 and then began to decline.（1）You can probably read this passage in a(n) .A . advertisementB . newspaperC . guidebookD . novel（2）You can probably read this passage in a(n) .A . advertisementB . newspaperC . guidebookD . novel（3）According to the report, the number of newborns declined in 2015 compared with 2014 mainly because of .A . the Year of the HorseB . the Year of the GoatC . the working conditionsD . the living conditions（4）According to the report, the number of newborns declined in 2015 compared with 2014 mainly because of .A . the Year of the HorseB . the Year of the GoatC . the working conditionsD . the living conditions（5）The number of Chinese women of childbearing age reached the highest point in .A . 2011B . 2012C . 2013D . 2014（6）The number of Chinese women of childbearing age reached the highest point in .A . 2011B . 2012C . 2013D . 2014（7）From 2010 to 2014, the newborn numbers in China .A . declined every yearB . kept the sameC . increased every yearD . doubled（8）From 2010 to 2014, the newborn numbers in China .A . declined every yearB . kept the sameC . increased every yearD . doubled14. （10分）根据短文内容的理解，选择正确答案。DOur school is in Beijing.

Why does some land have so much growing on it, while other land has almost no plants growing on it at all?To grow, plants need several things. One is warmth. In very cold places almost nothing grows. Plants also need water. In very dry parts of the Earth only a few unusual plants can grow. Thats why dry deserts(沙漠) everywhere are almost not covered by trees or grass.Plants must also have a place in which to put down their roots and grow. They find it difficult to grow on hard land. The town is built on hard land. The plants here have only the soil(土壤) found between the cracks of the stones to grow in.Another thing plants must have before they can grow is food.What will happen if we try to make things grow on the sandy beach? A few plants, such as beach grass, will grow in sand, but most plants wont. Even if the weather is warm enough and we water the plants each day, many of them will die because the sand on this beach has almost no plant food.（1）The passage can most probably be found in .A . a science bookB . a newspaperC . a magazineD . a report（2）Plants need things to grow well according to the passage.A . twoB . threeC . fourD . five（3）The reason why most plants cant grow on the sandy beach is that .A . there isnt enough sunlightB . there is too much waterC . it is too crowded thereD . it has little food for plants（4）Which of the following is true?A . Beach grass can hardly grow in sand.B . Plants need food to help them grow.C . Plants want a place where their flowers can come out.D . Dry deserts everywhere are almost covered by trees or grass.四、 任务型阅读。 (共2题；共13分)16. （5分）下面是某校八年级本学期在进行小组活动时所讨论的英语话题内容。请将话题的字母编号填写到相应的横线上。（有一个话题多余） A. How to learn English B. My hometown C. SportsD.
