二、阅读理解
On May 18, the students from a special school in Gansu Province visited a “mobile museum”. They saw some pictures of things from the museum on the school playground.
Chen Bingren, the organizer of this activity, had the one-day show successfully. It was Chen’s first time being a teacher for special children.
The special school has 158 students. Though many of them have speaking problems, the talk between Chen and the students went very well with the help of a sign language teacher.
Huang Baoping is a Grade 8 student at the school. He has hearing problems but he likes drawing very much. He kept asking questions like “What’s on the pottery(陶器)?” and “Why did the ancient people draw things like that thousands of years ago?”. Later on, Huang went to a pottery workshop and made a lotus（莲花）. Many children like Huang made works with their own understanding of things. Chen was surprised by the children’s love for art.
Ma Yujiao, a teacher at the special school, said they went to museums many times in the past but that the “mobile museum” was different and gave special children a better chance to learn about Chinese history.

4. Why do you think the “mobile museum” is a better way for special school students to learn about Chinese history compared to traditional museums?

1. B 细节理解题。根据"On May 18, the students from a special school in Gansu Province visited a 'mobile museum'."可知，在5月18日这天，这些特殊的孩子参观了"移动博物馆"。
2. D 组合选择题。根据"He kept asking questions like 'What's on the pottery?' and 'Why did the ancient people draw things like that thousands of years ago?'. Later on, Huang went to a pottery workshop and made a lotus."可知，黄问了一些关于陶艺的问题并去了一个陶艺工作室做了一朵莲花。
3. C 词义猜测题。根据"Though many of them have speaking problems, the talk between Chen and the students went very well with the help of a sign language teacher."可知，许多孩子都有说话问题，故应该是在手语老师的帮助下交谈，故推出画线部分sign language意为"手语"。
4. Because it brings historical exhibits directly to the school playground, saving special students from the trouble of travelling to a traditional museum—this is more convenient for students with physical or communication difficulties.（答案不唯一）

2. 第2题：根据第四段内容，Huang Baoping问关于陶器的问题（③），还去陶艺工作室制作了莲花（④），①“买花”、②“和父母去博物馆”原文未提及，故符合题意的是③④，答案为D。
3. 第3题：根据第三段“Though many of them have speaking problems, the talk between Chen and the students went very well with the help of a sign language teacher.”，特殊学生有说话问题，交流需借助手语，故“sign language”意为“手语”，答案为C。

【分析】
解题思路：先明确给出的词汇（connect, fame, produce, hear of, near），再结合每个空的语境、语法规则（时态、词性、单复数等）逐一匹配：
1. 第1空：句子是现在完成时（Have you ever），需用hear of的过去分词形式，结合语境“听说丝绸之路”，确定填heard of；
2. 第2空：定语从句缺谓语，描述过去的事实，需用connect的过去式，表“连接欧亚非”，确定填connected；
3. 第3空：修饰距离6500公里，需用副词，near的副词是nearly，表“将近”，确定填nearly；
4. 第4空：many other后接可数名词复数，produce对应的名词product（产品）的复数形式符合贸易语境，确定填products；
5. 第5空：修饰名词museum，需用形容词，fame的形容词famous表“著名的”，确定填famous；
第6空：原文提到丝绸之路“nearly 6,500 kilometres”，题目说5500公里，与原文不符，故判断为错误（F）。
【解析】
1. 现在完成时结构为“have/has + 过去分词”，hear of的过去分词是heard of，结合语境“你有没有听说过丝绸之路”，填heard of；
2. 定语从句描述过去的事实，用一般过去时，connect的过去式是connected，表“连接”，填connected；
3. 此处需副词修饰数词短语，near的副词形式nearly意为“将近”，符合语境，填nearly；
4. many other后接可数名词复数，produce对应的名词product（产品）的复数是products，符合“贸易其他产品”的语境，填products；
5. 此处需形容词修饰名词museum，fame的形容词famous意为“著名的”，符合语境，填famous；
6. 原文明确丝绸之路“nearly 6,500 kilometres”，题目中为5,500 kilometres，与原文不符，故判断为F。
