第3页（共11页）4．（8 分）China's Grand Canal Most people have heard of the Great Wall of China，but not many people
outside of China know about the Grand Canal.This man﹣made waterway﹣known in China as Da Yun he ﹣
is 1，700 kilometers long and some parts of it are more than 2，000 years old.It links the north of China
第4页（共11页）with Hangzhou，a city in the southern part of the country.It's the longest man﹣made waterway in the world.
It was built as a way to transport grain （谷物） from the rich agricultural land in China's south to
cities in the north.In fact，it's not one canal，but a system of canals and rivers linked together.It's still an
important part of the transport system in China.Thousands of boats use it every day to transport grain and
many other types of cargo.
Now the Chinese government is doing new work on the Grand Canal，It is making parts of it deeper，so
bigger ships can use it.The canal will also help to move water.There is a lot of rain in the south of China，
but not as much in the north.The canal will carry millions of liters of water from the south to the north.
The Grand Canal is much less famous than the Great Wall，and not very many tourists visit it.But its
possible to go on a cruise （乘船游览） along some of the oldest parts of the canal.Passengers on these
cruises see beautiful parts of China that other visitors don't see.
（1）From the passage，we know that the Grand Canal is .
A.more than two thousand years old
B.more famous than the Great Wall
C.the longest man﹣made waterway
（2）What does the underlined word "links" most probably mean in paragraph 1？
A.Connects.
B.Compares.
C.Competes.
（3）What is the main idea of paragraph 2？
A.The Grand Canal is helping to move water.
B.Why the canal was built and how it is used now.
C.The Grand Canal was used for transporting grain.
（4）What's the purpose of the passage？
A.To describe how beautiful the Grand Canal is.
B.To introduce how important the Grand Canal is.
第5页（共11页）C.To explain why few people visit the Grand Canal
5．（8 分）Most children are taught the virtue （美德） of honesty from stories.The well﹣known story of
Pinocchio teaches the importance of telling the truth.Every time Pinocchio lies，his nose grows longer and
longer.Another story is about the boy who"cried wolf." In the end，he loses all his sheep and the trust of his
fellow villagers because he tells lies many times.These types of stories show children that "honesty is the best
policy." Still，if this is the case，then why do so many people lie？The fact is that people lie for many
reasons.
One reason people lie is to minimize （减少） a mistake.While it is true that everyone does something
wrong from time to time，some people do not have the courage to admit their errors （错误） because they
are afraid they will be blamed.For example ， students might lie to their teachers about unfinished
homework.They might say that they left the work at home when，in fact，they did not do the work at
all.These students do not want to get in trouble or seem irresponsible，so they make up an excuse ﹣ a lie
﹣ to save face.
Another reason for lying has to do with self﹣protection.Parents，particularly those with young children，
may teach their children to use this type of"protective" lie in certain circumstances （状况）.What should
children do if a stranger calls while the parents are out？Many parents teach their children to explain that
their mother and father are too busy to come to the phone at that time.In this situation，protective lying can
mean greater safety.
People lie for many reasons，both good and bad.Lying to keep the peace or to stay safe can have
positive results.However，lying to stay out of trouble can lead to more trouble in the end.Understanding the
motives behind the impulse （冲动） to lie might minimize this habit of lying.
（1）What does the underlined word "this" refer to in the passage？
A.Honesty is the best policy.
第6页（共11页）B.The well﹣known story of Pinocchio.
C.The story of the boy who "cried wolf".
（2）How does the writer explain why people tell lies？
A.By asking questions.
B.By giving examples.
C.By showing the results.
（3）What is the correct structure of the passage？ （P﹣paragraph 1）
A.
B.
C.
（4）What's the best title for the passage？
A.The Truth behind Lying.
B.The Types of Lies.
C.The Habit of Lying.
