It is the parent of many musical instruments of some other countries.The guzheng should not be confused with the guqin, another ancient Chinese zither but without bridges. Now the guzheng is zither with movable bridges and usually 21 strings, although it can have from 15-25 strings. The guzheng's strings were formerly made of silk, though most players used metal strings by the 20th century. Since the mid-20由 century most performers use steel strings. The guzheng has a large resonant cavity （共振腔）.The guzheng has existed since the Warring States Period and became especially popular during the Qin dynasty. The number of strings on the guzheng has always fluctuated. There were as few as 6 to as many as 23 strings during the Tang dynasty. The earliest record of the guzheng belonged to the historian Sima Qian. Until 1961, the common guzheng had 16 strings, although by the mid-20th century 18-string guzheng were also in use. In 1961, Xu Zhenggao, together with Wang Xunzhi, introduced the first 21-string guzheng after two years of research and development. In 1960, they also invented the “S-shaped“ left string rest, which was quickly adopted by all guzheng makers and is still used today. This curve allows for greater ease in tuning the strings and, combined with strings of different thickness, allows for greater resonance in both the deeper and the higher pitch （音调）ranges. The 21-string guzheng is the most commonly used one, but some traditional musicians still use the 16-string one.1、We can infer from Paragraph 1 that.A. the guzheng is a musical instrument originating from Japan B , there is only one kind of string instrument in China C. there are many kinds of guzheng in the worldD. many musical instruments in other countries are related to the guzheng2、Which of the following material may NOT have been used to make the strings of the guzheng probably?A.

The guqing is an ancient Chinese zither with bridges.B The guzheng became espevially popular in the Tang DynastyC. All musicians don't use the 21-string guzheng.D. Xu Zhenggao invented the “S-shaped“ left string rest himself.Text 4Have you ever spent an afternoon in the backyard, maybe grilling or enjoying a basketball game, when suddenly you notice that everything goes quiet? There is an old phrase “calm before the storm”, often used in a situation-a quiet period just before a great activity or excitement. According to our own experience, we know there is actually calm before the storm. But what causes this calm? And is it always calm before the storm? Let's hear what scientists have to say.A period of calm happens in a particular kind of storm, the simplest kind of storm-a singlecell thunderstorm. In this type of thunderstorm, there is usually only one main updraft, which is warm, damp air and drawn from places near the ground. Storms need warm and damp air as fuel, so they typically draw that air in from surrounding environment. Storms can draw in the air that fit their need from all directions-even from the direction in which the storm is traveling.As the warm, damp air is pulled into a storm system, it leaves a low-pressure vacuum（真空）coming after. The rising air meets the cold dry air that has already existed in the storm clouds, thus the temperature of the warm, damp air drops, and the water vapour（水蒸汽）in it changes into tiny drops that are a precondition of rain. These drops accumulate and build on larger particles like dust, until they grow large enough to form raindrops.This warm, damp air keeps moving upwards, but it becomes cooler and drier during its trip through cloud. When it reaches the top of the cloud, the air gets spit out（被挤出）at the top. This air is sent rolling out over the big thunderclouds. From there, the air goes down. Warm and dry air is relatively stable, and once it covers a region, that air, in turn, causes the calm before a storm.Most thunderstorms, though, don't start with calm. That's because most are actually groups of storms with complex wind patterns. There*s so much air moving up and down storm groups that the calm before the storm never happens. Instead, before the storm, it might be really windy!1、Which best fits the description of a particular kind of storm?A. A storm with air drawn from every direction.B. A thunderstorm without strong winds.C. A thunderstorm with a single shape.D. A storm fueled by moving air from the ground.2、What does the underlined word "it" in Paragraph 3 refer to?A. Cold and dry air.B. Warm and damp air.C. Cold and damp air.D. Warm and dry air.3、Which does the writer most likely agree to?A. Presence of the calm relies on stable air.B. Storm happens without air moving up and down.C. The drier the air is, the bigger the storm will be.D. Not all thunderstorms start with the calm.4、What is the passage mainly about?A , Causes and effects of a heavy storm.B. An explanation of the calm before a storm.C. A personal experience of a heavy storm.D. A brief description of a peaceful storm.Part BDirections:Read the following text and answer the questions by choosing the most suitable subheading from the list A -G for each numbered paragraph (41 45).
