二、语法填空
（一）（2026·辽宁朝阳·二模）阅读下面短文。在空白处填入一个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。
A wave of enthusiasm for Chinese intangible cultural heritage (非物质文化遗产) is sweeping through the
foreign student community in Hefei, Anhui province. Currently, nearly 3,000 international students are studying at
Hefei’s universities, 1 over 50 percent of them attending various intangible cultural heritage courses
2 (offer) by 14 institutions.
Wallace Liew Anak Jeman, a Malaysian student at Anhui University of Chinese Medicine, is majoring in
traditional Chinese medicine. In his spare time, he is 3 (passion) about Chinese kung fu. “Kung fu
originated in China. 4 (grasp) its essence, one must come here and get professional training from Chinese
5 (master),” he explained.
So far, Hefei University of Technology 6 (design) a series of cultural electives featuring paper-
cutting, calligraphy, martial arts and traditional Chinese painting for its 202 international students from 47 different
nations.
“What I do is not about creating new content, but about passing on knowledge and techniques,” said Zhong
Yan, a teacher from Hefei University of Technology. Xi Zhiyang, 7 inheritor (继承人) of Huizhou
paper-cutting, expressed his 8 (satisfy) with the works created by foreign students. “I am very pleased
with their creations. This demonstrates that traditional Chinese culture can be shared 9 (global),” he
remarked. “ 10 matters is not who we pass our intangible cultural heritage on to, but that it continues to be
passed down,” he said.
（二）（2026·辽宁大连·二模）阅读下面短文，在空白处填入1 个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。
A Chinese musical work was introduced to European audiences. Violinist Lyu Siqing and the Major
Ensemble (乐团), a group of young Chinese musicians, 11 (tour) five European countries, performing
The Four Seasons of China by young Chinese composer Wen Ziyang.
The tour marked the first European performance of the piece, symbolically 12 (mirror) the work’s
own cycle from winter into spring. Lyu used the violin as a highly expressive instrument 13 (capture) the
piece’s full emotional range, from the energy of spring to the 14 (quiet) of winter.
The Four Seasons of China is a deep cultural expression. Wen, 15 spent a year crafting the piece,
was inspired by Antonio Vivaldi, 16 Italian violinist. But his ambition extended far beyond copying the
West. He sought to translate the essence of Chinese agricultural life and its connection to natural cycles into sound.
In Hungary (匈牙利), the tour saw a 17 (remark) integration of Eastern and Western traditions.
Local musicians joined the ensemble, and the concert featured a Hungarian music of the same theme, The
Hungarian Four Seasons, 18 (perform) alongside the Chinese work. Lyu sees this as a significant
moment for Chinese music, showing its future 19 the global stage — a future where works with Chinese
culture and philosophy can stand 20 (proud) alongside Western masterpieces.
（三）（2026·上海·二模）Old, but Good
Listening to new music is hard. Not hard compared to space travel, but hard compared to listening to music
we already know. Those of us who have settled into adult life often don’t listen to new music. With work, bills,
children and life 21 (come) into play, it’s easy to let go of the act of discovery. Eventually, we bow our
heads and reach a stage 22 most music becomes something to remember rather than something to
experience.
Most people have all the songs they could ever need already by the time they turn 30. And 23 we
have an online music platform, we can easily take ourselves back to our youth, when life was simpler. Why jump
off a mountain hoping that you 24 (rescue) on the way down by your new favourite album when you can
stay safe with your old playlist? Why spend time on something you 25 still even end up disliking?
From music to clothing brands, we love the things we know because we know them, and therefore we love
them. But there is a physiological explanation in our desire to seek comfort in 26 familiar.
It has something 27 (do) with our brains. Our brains change as they recognise new patterns in the
world, which is 28 makes brains useful. When it comes to listening to music, a network of nerves in the
part of the brain that processes sounds 29 (help) catalogue the different patterns of music. When 30
(match) with a familiar pattern, a sound stimulates our brains to release dopamine — the chemical behind some of
our strongest emotions. That’s why music can move us so deeply.
（四）（2026·上海·二模）There Are No Rules for Success
“It’s the Worst Time to Be a College Graduate in Years,” reads a Newsweek headline. For 22-to 30-year old
computer-science graduates, employment has been falling. Why? Is it ChatGPT? Late in the economic cycle? No
matter, the unwritten social contract for success that 31 (impress) upon you — good grades, job loyalty,
retirement account — feels completely broken. It may be time to create your own job.
Careers 32 were once safe are now risky: marketers, some programmers, maybe even lawyers. At
the same time, surfing the waves of progress to 33 the world is headed is less risky than you think.
Progress comes through surprises, not rules, with inventions no one 34 (think) possible. The
telescope opened the skies. Gene (基因) editing was hard until Crispr technology simplified it. And it’s been less
than three years 35 ChatGPT shocked the world with what it could do. Machine learning was researched
for decades with little result, until back-propagation allowed voice and facial recognition. 36 of these
were invented by following the rules, but by coloring outside the lines. Ignore those who tell you to take “ 37
(calculate) risks.” It’s the greatness of risk that provides the potential reward.
Do you need universities? It is noted that college graduates have the same jobless rate as those who didn’t
get a college degree. So why go? Since 2011, the Thiel Fellowship has paid smart young people $200,000 over two
years 38 (build) new things instead of sitting in a classroom. I asked Peter Thiel how it was going. He
pointed to more than 300 fellows who have created $750 billion 39 value.
No one knows what’s next. The best way to predict the future is to invent it. You’ll make mistakes. You
might even fail. So what? If your brain still functions, you can keep 40 (go) until you find success that
surprises the world. There are no rules. Do your thing. Accomplish something.
（五）（2026·上海·二模）Why Book-to-Film Adaptations Often Disappoint
When a beloved book is adapted into a film, fans often experience a mix of excitement and anxiety. They
look forward to seeing a familiar story on screen but worry that the film might not live up to the images they have
imagined while reading. This reaction arises from how we read. For many, novels are not just stories; they are
visual experiences 41 (carry) in the mind.
Reading involves 42 (create) mental images of characters, settings, and events. These images,
43 they are general or detailed, form part of the enjoyment of reading. We rarely notice them until there is
something wrong with them. Once a film version doesn’t match our imagined images, disappointment follows. We
might find ourselves thinking, “That’s not how I 44 (picture) it.”
Interestingly, this isn’t new. It has existed 45 the long history of storytelling. In the 19th century,
when illustrations started appearing in books, readers began to feel a similar discomfort. The visual representations
in books, such as those in Charles Dickens’ novels, were seen as a threat to readers’ mental imagery. Once an
illustration had been seen by a reader, the character or scene was likely 46 (imagine) differently.
Yet not everyone felt disappointed by illustrations. For people 47 struggle to visualize while
reading, illustrations could enhance their experience. Around 4% of the population lacks the ability to turn words
into pictures, and for them, illustrations in books or films may be more enjoyable, 48 they have no pre-
existing images to compare them to.
For most of us who do visualize, though, the gap between what a film shows and our mental images can lead
to disappointment. However, this doesn’t mean the film is a failure. Instead, it offers an insight into 49
personal our engagement with novels really is. Therefore, rather than criticize an adaptation, we 50
reflect on why it differs from our imagined version and what that reveals about our perceptions.
（六）（2026·上海·二模）Latest Gadgets (小器具) on Display
The Consumer Electronics Show CES, which took place between 7 and 10 January, gave the world a
fascinating look at the technology of the future. The event is held annually and gives companies the chance to show
off cutting-edge gadgets and extraordinary machines, some of 51 are already in shops. Artificial
intelligence AI served as a 52 (define) characteristic for numerous items on display this year.
One of the stars of the show was the Ropet, a robotic pet that expresses emotions, 53 (remember)
faces and can chat in different languages. Thanks to a camera built into its nose, it can detect and react to human
emotions, and it understands gestures 54 a finger to the lips to ask it to be quiet. It could be appealing to
someone who wants a pet, but is unable to look after a real 55 .
There were plenty of devices on display that are designed to help people around the home. These included a
robotic vacuum cleaner. This kind of thing isn’t all that new, but the Roborock Saros Z70 has an extra feature: an
arm with a pair of pincers (钳子) that it 56 use to pick socks, underpants and other things off the floor as
it moves around the home. Another device meant for the home is the Smart Indoor Garden, 57 it looks
like something you might see on a spaceship. 58 (ensure) that plants grow well in the futuristic-looking
capsule, the device creates a cloud of water droplets containing nutrients. It allows people to grow vegetables, herbs
and flowers all year round with little effort 59 (invest). There was lots of technology that people could
wear, too, including several different types of smart glasses. The exhibit also demonstrated 60 wearable
technology could achieve in healthcare.
