Q. 9.Whats suggested in the last sentence of the passage 10.Whats the main idea of this passage 11.盘古(Pangu)去世后，他的身体变成了宇宙中的一切。他的左眼变成了太阳，右眼变成了月亮。他身体突出的部分(protruded parts)变成了高山，他的血液变成了河流。他的肌肉变成了土壤，他的头发和胡须变成了天空上的星星和地上的草。他的牙齿和骨骼变成了铁和巨大

26、的石头，而他身体里的精华变成了珍珠和美玉。他的呼吸变成了风和云，他的呐喊变成了雷电，汗水变成了雨。他身上的很多小虫子被风吹到地上变成了人。 12.盘古(Pangu)开天辟地是古代东方广为流传的一个神话。相传天地像一个鸡蛋一般是连为一体的(integrated)，盘古就睡在其中。他睡了18000年，后发现周边无比的黑暗。他张开大手，朝着黑暗劈去。随后天地开始分裂。他用手托举着天，用脚踩(tread)着地。他的身体每天增长3米。因此，天地之间的距离每天增加3米。很快，另一个18000年过去了，现在天和地已经离得很远，地也变得很厚。盘古也成了一个巨人。直到天与地之间的距离达到了90000千米。 13

27、.武术(martial arts)的起源和发展源于古代人的自卫、狩猎和军事训练。正确的武术训练能提高个人的体能、健康和意志力。武术提倡仁义(virtue)和和平，而不是侵略或暴力行为。这一直是一代代的习武之人共同恪守(uphold)的准则。广义上来说，武术是指任何类型的打斗技巧。近年来，学习中国武术已经在不同年龄、不同国籍的人群中变得越来越流行。因此，许多武术培训中心或俱乐部相继成立。坚强的意志和持之以恒是习武的前提(precondition)。 14.在中国民间传说中，钟馗是一个专门驱除妖魔鬼怪(exorcise ghosts and evil spirits)的神。他长相奇丑，但很有才华。

28、712年，钟馗赴长安参加科举考试(the imperial examination)。一个考官以貌取人并且反复在皇帝面前说他的坏话。因此，钟馗没有拿到第一名。一气之下，他撞在了宫殿的柱子上，自杀了。之后皇帝颁布圣旨(imperial edict)，授予钟馗除魔师(Demon Queller)的头衔，驱逐世上所有的恶魔。钟馗捕鬼的画在民间很受欢迎。描绘了钟馗捉恶鬼的场景的画被认为能够避灾(avoid calamity)，并能带来好运气。 15.作为可以带来财富的神，大部分中国人都供奉(worship)着财神(the God of Wealth)。他经常被描绘(depict)为身骑黑虎、手持金杖(

29、golden rod)的角色。每到春节，每个家庭都会挂上财神的画像以祈求好运和财富。拜财神起初源于商人，然后深受其他阶层人们的喜爱。此外，不同时代和地区的人们崇拜的财神不同，民间信仰中的财神不是个单一的形象，而是一个群体。 16.广寒宫(the Moon Palace)指的是月球上的宫殿。传说里面居住着月亮女神嫦娥、玉兔(the Jade Rabbit)和樵夫吴刚(woodcutter Wu Gang)。嫦娥原本是一个凡间女子。她偷吃了丈夫后羿的长生不老的神药(pill of immortality)飞到了月宫，然后她成了中国的月亮女神。关于嫦娥最好的朋友玉兔有许多种传说。人们普遍认为，它被送
