Unit 1 A new start 单元测试 35 第一部分 阅读理解（共两节，满分 分） 第一节（共10 小题；每小题2.5 分，满分25 分） 阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A 、B 、C 和D 四个选项中，选出最佳选项。 A Maaseik, a city in Belgium, has opened an exhibition of about 200 relics and treasures of the Tang Dynasty (618 AD - 907 AD), showing China’s golden age of ancient civilisation( ). 文明 The exhibition, which opened on May 11 and will continue until Oct. 20, is part of the city’s effort to create a centre of Chinese culture. Belgian Princess Mathilde formally announced the beginning of the exhibition, titled “China’s Golden Age: Treasures from the Tang Dynasty”. The items, including gold plates and silver wares for royal families, Tang Dynasty tri-colour glazed figurines(小雕像) of women and paintings, have recently been on exhibit in the Dutch city of Assert. All of the exhibited items are from Shaanxi Province, China. Its provincial capital Xi’an was the most populous(人口多的) city in the world and once the capital of the Tang Dynasty. The Tang period is generally regarded as a high point in Chinese civilization —equal to, or better than that of the earlier Han Dynasty (202 BC—220 AD), a golden age of Chinese culture. Several years ago, said Dirk Verlaak, vice-mayor of Maaseik, his city and Assen teamed up to host history and culture exhibitions of China’s first two imperial dynasties, the Qin (221 BC—206 BC) and the Han. The Chinese relics and treasures attracted 350,000 visitors in Assen and 190,000 in Maaseik. “Westerners don’t know much about China’s ancient civilisation and history, and we hope the new exhibition in Maaseik can attract more visitors,” said Verlaak. 1. Why did Maaseik held the exhibition? A. To make money. B. To educate people
