In summer, people wave their fans to beat the heat．But the traditional Chinese fan is not just a tool for cooling down．It’s an important part of Chinese culture．
The history of the Chinese fan dates back to over 3,000 years ago, around the time of the Shang Dynasty．One of the earliest known “fans” were named shanhan (扇汗)．They weren’t like the fans we see today．These were tied to a horse-drawn carriage (马车) to prevent the heat of the sun and shelter passengers from the rain．The shanhan then developed into a long-handled fan called the zhangshan (障扇)．This type of fan was made of silk or bird feathers and was mainly used by the emperor’s honor guard (仪仗队) for decoration．It wasn’t until the Zhou Dynasty that people started using folding fans to cool down．
During the Han Dynasty, the fan became popular among common people．This was because more affordable bamboo fans had been invented．The popularity of these fans continued until the Tang and Song Dynasties．Around the same time, a new type of silk fan was also introduced．Loved by young women, the silk fans were round to resemble the moon．They were also called “round fans,” or tuanshan．Later, this moon-shaped fan took on many other shapes．
The ribs (扇骨) of these silk round fans were traditionally made from bamboo or animal bones．The handles were usually decorated with different designs．The main “face” of the fan was often hand-painted with calligraphy (书法) and scenes such as mountains or flowers．Folding fans were mainly made up of panels (扇面) and ribs．For the ribs, people used different kinds of materials, including wood, bones and bamboo．The panels of the folding fan were usually made of paper, silk or other materials．They formed an empty space for artists to use as a canvas (画布)．Their calligraphy work and painted scenes added color to the fans．
From the Song Dynasty on, fan painting became an art form of its own．Works of art featuring birds and flowers were popular among young women．Men, however, preferred fans decorated with calligraphy．Mythical (神话的) creatures were also popular choices．Dragons were often painted onto men’s fans while ladies usually preferred phoenixes (凤凰).
33．When were fans used to beat the heat?
A．In the Tang Dynasty. B．In the Han Dynasty.
C．In the Zhou Dynasty. D．In the Song Dynasty.
34．Why did fans become popular among common people?
A．Because cheaper bamboo fans were invented.
B．Because people want to cool down in summer.
C．Because more people learned to make fans.
D．Because a new type of silk fan was invented.
35．What is the underlined word “resemble” in the third paragraph similar to?
A．cut out B．look like C．turn into D．make up
36．Which of the following best shows the structure of the passage?
Yesterday evening, when Hu Wei was showering, he suddenly heard a voice from above his head．“Hurry up! You’ve been in there for three minutes!”
The boy was puzzled (困惑的)．“Excuse me．Who’s over there?” he looked up at the showerhead and asked．“It’s me．The Four-Minute Shower,” the voice replied．
“The four-minute shower? Who showers for only four minutes?”
“Well you should,” Mr．Shower replied．“Everyone．I mean everyone should keep their showers short.”
“But why?” Hu asked．
“The world is running out of clean, fresh water, you know．By 2050, about half of the world’s population will experience water shortages for at least one month a year．We must do something to save water before it’s too late.”
“Got it．I’ll try to finish my shower as soon as possible.” Hu said．“Thank you for your advice．Bye.”
“I’m not finished yet,” said Mr．Shower．“I have one more piece of advice.”
“Well, go ahead．I’m all ears.”
“You should replace (替换) your power showerhead with a regular (常规的) one,” said the Four-Minute Shower．“A regular showerhead uses 10 liters of water a minute．A power showerhead can use up to 20 liters.”
“All right．I’ll let Dad know．Anything else?”
“Well, sometimes, you can try taking a cold shower in the morning．A cold shower will force you to finish in four minutes．And you’ll help save gas or electricity (电)．
“Cold showers? Um…okay, I’ll think about it.”
“Thanks,” Mr．Shower replied．“Now I’ll go next door and spread the word.“”
Hu looked up at the showerhead again．The voice was gone, but Mr．Shower’s advice kept ringing in his head．He quickly finished his shower and turned off the tap.

参考答案
1．C
【详解】句意：——我们真的要这么快就走吗？——是的。恐怕我们必须这么做。出租车在外面等着了。
考查情态动词辨析。need需要；may可以；must必须；can能。根据“The taxi is waiting outside.”可知此处应该是必须要很快就走。故选C。
