Until four years ago, Liu worked fulltime as a computer engineer at a power plant in Shanxi Province. He only wrote science fiction in his spare time. But it was during this time that Lius imagination took flight. He did what he might never have the chance to do in real lifewander in space, fight with aliens, and visit planets light years away.But even with such a powerful imagination, Liu, 55, probably hadnt expected that he would become the first Asian to win the Hugo Award, science fictions highest prize, in 2015. Perhaps neither did he think that former US president Barack Obama would read his novel The ThreeBody Problem, nor that on Nov. 9 in Washington DC, he would win the 2018 Arthur C. Clarke Award for Imagination in Service to Society. Its the first time a Chinese writer has ever won the award.In his acceptance speech, Liu said that he owed his imagination to Arthur C. Clarke (19172008), a famous UK scifi author. He said that reading Clarkes 1968 classic novel 2001: A Space Odyssey in the early 1980s had a great effect on him.“My mind opened up like never before. I felt like a narrow river finally seeing the sea，” Liu said. “That night, in my eyes, the starry sky was completely different from the past. For the first time in my life, I was awed (使敬畏) by the mystery of the universe.”But no matter how far away Lius imagination takes him, somehow his novels always stay rational.In The ThreeBody Problem, for example, Liu tells a tale of aliens invading Earth. But unlike other alien stories, Liu talks more about relationships between civilizations, rules of survival, and the meanings of life. And in The Wandering Earth, Liu looks ahead to the day when our solar system comes to an end and humans have to look for a new place to live. However, all his visions and solutions are based on “hard science”. Lius works arent simply daydreams.1What do we know about Liu Cixin?AHe became a fulltime writer when he was young.BHe dreamed about wandering in space from childhood.CHe is the first Asian to win the Arthur C.

It was, for example, the first country to produce paper money. Before the invention of paper money and coins, people used many different kinds of things for buying and selling. _1_ This exchange of goods and services for other goods and services is called bartering (物质交换)_2_ In 1200 BC, people in China began to use shells (贝壳) as money. Usually the shells used as money were very small. This made it easier for people to carry money over long distances, and allowed for trade to develop between different parts of the country.In the years which followed this invention, many other countries around the world began to do the same. _3_The next development was in 1000 BC, when China started making bronze and copper shells. It wasnt long before the Chinese made round coins out of metal. _4_ By 500 BC, metal coins had begun to appear in countries like Persia and Greece, and later in the Roman Empire.About 1,000 years later, leather was used as money in China, and in 806 AD, the first paper banknotes were produced by the Chinese people. _5_APeople also began collecting foreign coins as souvenirs.BDuring that time, for example, buying a chicken might cost several potatoes.CIt was still many years before paper currency appeared in Europe.DHowever, as economies developed, such exchanges became impractical.EThey also used tiny shells as money for buying and selling.FAs time went by, trade between countries increased.GThe first coins often had holes in them so that people could string them together.四、应用文写作某英语刊物正在进行以“My Summer Trip”为主题的征文活动。请根据以下提示,用英语写一篇100词左右的短文,向该刊投稿。内容包括:1.旅行的时间、地点;2.旅行过程中的活动;3.旅行的感受或收获。注意:1.词数100左右;2.可适当增加细节,注意行文连贯。一、课文语法填空1a2.argument3.walking4.where5.had landed6.to seek7.him8.gave9.what10.Finally二、阅读理解1.D细节理解题。根据第二段中But even with such a powerful imagination, Liu, 55, probably hadnt expected that he would become the first Asian to win the Hugo Award, science fictions highest prize, in 2015.可知，我们对刘慈欣的了解是他是第一位获得雨果奖的中国人。2.D推理判断题。根据第四段“My mind opened up like never before. I felt like a narrow river finally seeing the sea，”Liu said. “That night, in my eyes, the starry sky was completely different from the past. For the first time in my life, I was awed by the mystery of the universe.”可知，刘慈欣的话主要是在阅读克拉克的作品后表达自己的感受。3.D推理判断题。根据最后一段中However, all his visions and solutions are based on “hard science”. Lius works arent simply daydreams.可知，作者提到The ThreeBody Problem和The Wandering Earth是为了证明刘慈欣的作品是科学与现实的结合。4.A主旨大意题。根据第一段Perhaps no one knows the power of imagination better than Chinese writer Liu Cixin. He only wrote science fiction in his spare time. But it was during this time that Lius imagination took flight. He did what he might never have the chance to do in real lifewander in space, fight with aliens, and visit planets light years away.可知，本文讲述的是刘慈欣的成就与写作风格。三、阅读七选五1B由上文在纸币和硬币发明之前，人们用许多不同的东西来买卖。可知B项During that time, for example, buying a chicken might cost several potatoes.(例如，在那期间，买一只鸡可能要用一些土豆来交换。)符合题意。2D根据下文的内容可知，在公元前1200年中国人开始使用贝壳作为货币，这就很容易携带钱到远方。所以上一段提到的用实物的方式不方便，不实用。可知D项However, as economies developed, such exchanges became impractical.(然而，随着经济的发展，这种交换变得不切实际。)承上启下，故选D项。3E根据上句内容，在这项发明之后的几年里，世界上许多其他国家也开始这样做，即也使用贝壳来作为货币。分析选项可知E项They also used tiny shells as money for buying and selling.(他们也用小贝壳作为买卖的货币。)符合题意。4G根据本空的上下文内容可知，这时货币出现了新的发展，即出现金属货币。可知G项The first coins often had holes in them so that people could string them together.(最早的硬币上常有洞，以便人们可以把它们串在一起)符合题意。5C本段主要讲述了纸币最早出现在中国。上文内容在公元806年，最初的纸币是由中国人制作的。可知C项It was still many years before paper currency appeared in Europe.(欧洲出现纸币还需很多年。)符合题意。四、应用文写作MySummerTripOn the third day of summer holiday,June 10th,I flew to Shenzhen with my parents to have a relaxing summer trip.Located in the southwest of our country,Shenzhen is a beautiful coastal city.During the 7-day holiday,I enjoyed having a walk along the beach after supper or having a swim in the afternoon.The sky is blue,the air is fresh.Wherever you go,you can always see the green trees,the neat grasses and the colorful flowers.They were really wonderful.Forgetting all the burdens in my mind at school,I felt really relaxed and refreshed.Travelling not only broadens my horizons but also opens my eyes to the world.第11页（共11页）
