As the Chinese Mid-Autumn Festival approaches, mooncakes are turning up all over China, from traditional teashops to Starbucks counters. The holiday is one of China’s four most important festivals, and in the weeks before the date arrives, top hotels get into the spirit with lavish(奢华) treats in lovely packaging. Traditionally, the cookie-sized round pastry(馅饼) has a rich thick filling usually made from red-bean or lotus-seed paste and covered by a thin crust. It may also contain yolks from salted duck eggs, integrating a beautiful savory tinge into the sugary taste. Fillings and crusts have become more diverse over time, especially in the hands of skilled pastry chefs. The mooncakes in Chinese culture represent homesickness, and the top crust of each moon-shaped pastry is generally imprinted with the Chinese characters for longevity or harmony.

This year, the fancy gift boxes that have long driven the mooncake trade are particularly striking and rich with tradition.

For example, the Fairmont Peace Hotel in Shanghai, built in 1929 and a magnet for Hollywood celebrities in the 1930s, has prepared a selection of mooncake gift boxes with designs inspired by the beauty and elegance of the hotel’s famous art deco style. The simplest box of four pieces (red-bean paste, creamy custard, plain cheese, green-bean paste) is 198 yuan($29.64), while more lavish selections of five or six pieces, including mooncakes with egg yolk, run up to 338 yuan for a box.

Beijing’s Nuo Hotel, meanwhile, has created Ming Dynasty (1368－1644) inspired mooncake gift packs based on the design of porcelain vases in the hotel lobby, with the essence of landscape painting using Zhang Dai’s poetic passages to show the peaceful harmony of man and nature. The box of six is 158 yuan, and includes mooncakes ranging from cheese mango to charcoal burning fragrant Pu'er tea and white lotus with egg yolk. A box of eight cakes of different flavors is 228 yuan.

1.What feeling does the mooncake stand for in our country?

A. Separation.　　 B. Harmony.　　 C. Homesick.　　 D. Happiness.

2.Which place selling mooncakes doesn’t mention in the passage?

A. Stations　　 B. Teashops.　　 C. Starbucks.　　 D. Hotels..

3.What do the last two paragraphs mainly tell us about mooncakes?

A. The high price.　　 B. The various shapes.

C. The rich fillings.　　 D. The fancy boxes.

4.Which kind of mooncakes is’t made by Beijing’s Nuo Hotel?

A. Green-bean paste.　　 B. Cheese mango.

C. White lotus with egg yolk.　　 D. Charcoal burning fragrant Pu’er tea.

高三英语单项填空中等难度题查看答案及解析

I.M. Pei, the Chinese-American, who was regarded as one of the last great modernist architects, has died at the age of 102.

Although he worked mostly in the United States, Pei will always be remembered for a European project: His redevelopment of the Louvre Museum in Paris in the 1980s. He gave us the glass and metal pyramid in the main courtyard, along with three smaller pyramids and a vast subterranean (地下的) addition to the museum entrance.

Pei was the first foreign architect to work on the Louvre in its long history, and initially his designs were fiercely opposed. But in the end, the French — and everyone else — were won over.

Winning the fifth Pritzker Architecture Prize in 1983, he was thought as giving the 20th century “some of its most beautiful inside spaces and outside forms. His talent and skill in the use of materials approach the level of poetry.”

After studying architecture at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology and Harvard, Pei set up his own architectural practice in New York in 1955.

Designing the John F. Kennedy Presidential Library & Museum in 1964 established him as a name. His East Building of the National Gallery of Art in Washington in 1978 changed people’s ideas of a museum. The site was an odd trapezoid (梯形) shape. Pei’s solution was to cut it in two. The resulting building was dramatic, light and elegant — one of the first crowd-pleasing cathedrals of modern art.

Though known as a modernist, and notable for his forms based on arrangements of simple geometric (几何的) shapes, he once urged Chinese architects to look more to their architectural tradition rather than designing in a western style.

In person, I.M. Pei was good-humored, charming and unusually modest. His working process was evolutionary, but innovation (创新) was never an intended goal.

“Stylistic originality is not my purpose,” he said. “I want to find the originality in the time, the place and the problem.”

1.What can we learn about the result of redevelopment of the Louvre Museum?

A.It was criticized by the French.

B.It turned out to be a success.

C.It made the Louvre Museum look strange.

D.It changed the function of the Louvre Museum.

2.What can we learn from the underlined sentence in paragraph 4?

A.He is a master in applying materials.

B.He is skilled in writing poems.

C.He often combines poetry and construction.

D.He gets inspiration from poetry in designing.

a. Design the John F. Kennedy Presidential Library & Museum.

b. Study architecture at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology and Harvard.

c. Design the National Gallery of Art.

d. Win the fifth Pritzker Architecture Prize.
