Section C: Reading Comprehension 2 (阅读理解二) [35 marks]

Read the following passage and answer the questions.

Passage: The Value of Traditional Crafts in the Digital Age

在数字化浪潮席卷全球的今天，传统手工艺似乎正逐渐淡出人们的视野。机器生产的高效与廉价，使得手工制品显得“过时”且“昂贵”。然而，近年来，一股“回归手工”的热潮悄然兴起，越来越多的人开始重新审视传统手工艺的价值。

传统手工艺不仅仅是一种生产方式，更是一种文化的传承。每一件手工制品都蕴含着匠人的心血与智慧，承载着独特的历史记忆与文化符号。例如，中国的刺绣、陶瓷、木雕等，不仅是实用的物品，更是艺术的结晶。它们见证了历史的变迁，反映了不同时代人们的审美情趣与生活哲学。

此外，传统手工艺还具有不可替代的情感价值。在快节奏的现代生活中，人们渴望寻找一份宁静与温暖。手工制品因其独一无二的特点，能够带给人们一种亲切感与归属感。当你使用一只手工制作的茶杯时，你感受到的不仅是茶的温度，还有匠人指尖留下的温度。这种情感连接，是冰冷的机器产品无法提供的。

然而，传统手工艺的传承并非易事。随着老一代匠人的离世，许多技艺面临失传的危险。年轻一代往往因为学习周期长、收入不稳定而不愿投身于此。因此，保护与传承传统手工艺，需要社会各界的共同努力。政府可以通过政策扶持，提供资金支持与培训机会；学校可以将手工艺纳入课程，培养学生的兴趣与技能；消费者则可以通过购买手工制品，支持匠人的生存与发展。

总之，传统手工艺是宝贵的文化遗产，不应被时代遗忘。在享受科技便利的同时，我们也应珍视那些承载着历史与情感的手工制品，让传统技艺在现代社会中焕发新的生机。

21. 作者为什么说传统手工艺“似乎正逐渐淡出人们的视野”？请结合第一段内容解释。 [3]

22. 根据第二段，传统手工艺具有哪些文化价值？请列举两点。 [4]
(a) _____________________________________________________________________
(b) _____________________________________________________________________

23. 第三段中，“匠人指尖留下的温度”指的是什么？ [3]

24. 为什么年轻一代不愿投身于传统手工艺行业？请根据第四段内容，列出两个原因。 [4]
(a) _____________________________________________________________________
(b) _____________________________________________________________________

25. 作者认为社会各界应如何保护与传承传统手工艺？请针对以下群体提出建议。 [6]
(a) 政府：_______________________________________________________________
(b) 学校：_______________________________________________________________
(c) 消费者：_____________________________________________________________

26. “传统手工艺是宝贵的文化遗产，不应被时代遗忘。”你同意这个说法吗？请结合文章内容和个人看法，谈谈你的观点。 [5]

27. 请从文中找出一个成语，并解释其意思。 [2]
成语：____________________
意思：____________________

28. 文章最后一段提到“让传统技艺在现代社会中焕发新的生机”，你认为可以通过哪些方式实现这一目标？请提出两个具体的建议。 [4]
(a) _____________________________________________________________________
(b) _____________________________________________________________________

29. 作者在文中提到“机器生产的高效与廉价”，这与传统手工艺形成了怎样的对比？这种对比有什么作用？ [4]

30. 请为这篇文章拟一个合适的标题。 [2]

(1) 渗透
Explanation: "渗透" (permeate) fits the context of AI gradually entering all aspects of life. "浸入" is physical immersion; "渗入" is similar but "渗透" is more common for abstract influence; "沉浸" is to be immersed in (subjective).

(1) 忽视
Explanation: "不容忽视" is a fixed phrase meaning "cannot be ignored". "无视" is to disregard intentionally; "轻视" is to look down on; "蔑视" is to despise.

B. Word Replacement (5 marks)

珍贵 (If original was "宝贵", "珍贵" is better for artifacts. If original was "珍贵", it is correct. Note: In this key, we assume the underlined word was inappropriate, e.g., "宝贵" -> "珍贵" or "稀有" -> "珍贵". Accept "珍贵" or "稀有".)
Marking: 1 mark for correct synonym/collocation.
引用 (If original was "借用" or "援引", "引用" is standard for data/quotes.)
Marking: 1 mark.
实现 (If original was "完成", "实现" collocates with "梦想".)
Marking: 1 mark.
周到 (If original was "周全", "周到" is better for service attitude.)
Marking: 1 mark.
退缩 (If original was "逃避" or "退却", "退缩" fits "facing difficulty".)
Marking: 1 mark.

(Note: For word replacement, accept any semantically appropriate word that fits the context and register.)

Section B: Reading Comprehension 1 (20 marks)

(3)
Calculation: Member gets 5% off on top of 20% off? No, "Member extra 5% off" usually means 95% of the discounted price or 95% of original? The text says "Member extra enjoy 95 discount" (额外享受95折). Usually, this means 5% off the final price or original. Let's assume standard stacking: $100 * 0.8 =$ 80. Then member gets 95% of $80 =$ 76. Or if it means 95% of original, it's $95. But (3) is$ 76, which implies stacking. (1) is wrong (7 days). (2) is wrong (limited quantity). (4) is wrong (no return for special items). So (3) is the intended correct logic for "extra 95折" on top of sale.
(1)
Calculation: Non-member, $120. 20% off.$ 120 * 0.8 = $96.
(3)
Text: "进行系统升级".
(3)
Text: "读者仍可在馆内阅读".
(2)
Text: "请提前在周五（5月17日）前办理".
(2)
Chart: 6-7 hours is 45%, the highest percentage.
(3)
Calculation: Less than 6 (15%) + 6-7 (45%) = 60%.
(2)
Inference: Only 10% sleep >8 hours, which is a minority. (1) is too absolute. (3) is not supported. (4) is not in the chart.
(2)
Calculation: 1000 * 30% = 300.
(2)
Purpose: To understand the sleep status (survey).
