Question

【题目】 The slogan for the Cultural Heritage and Sustainable Development Fund is"In Love With China"-and this special message has bcen shown in its own logo.The logo uses the characters for"wind"and"phoenix"(风凰）in ancient oracle bone script(甲骨文）on a circular Chinese fan.

Madam Kang Jiaqi,the executive director of CHSDF, IN LOVE WITH CHINA explains the many layers of meaning behind the logo:“The logo adopts the writing style of oracle bone script-dating back over 3,000 years-carved onto either turtle shell or ox bones.

＂The Chinese character for*wind' and the character for"phoenix' are almost the same,with just one stroke difference.In China's ancient past,the character for＂phoenix' was widely considered to bring peace and happiness and represents good fortune.The character"wind' has a long history and is also known as a name representing culture and spiritual power."

＂Both the characters"wind' and 'phoenix 'share the same component in their characters,which is also used in the slogan 'In Love With China'.This extraordinary combination represents how experts lead fashion,which in tum leads culture-and that culture is the basis of creativity.Therefore,it represents the importance of traditional Chinese culture in global creativity.

＂Taking the Chinese oracle bone character of"wind 'and' phoenix' as our logo represents the beginning of Chinese civilization,which suggests that it can pass on Chinese culture through the cooperation between the CHSDF and the cooperative platform of global designers,"explains Jiaqi.

Logo artist Sam Chung similarly explains her design process,"The decision of the oracle bone script of' wind' comes from the root of the character itself.Originated from the character shape of 'phoenix,'wind's 'oracle bone script still presents wonder, despite its more circular shape.The three tassels(流苏）at the end of the moon-shaped fan further give a feeling of lightness while hinting at both Eastern and Western flavors."

这是一篇说明文。文章展示了文化遗产和可持续发展基金的标语和标志，并介绍了其背后的设计理念。

【1】细节理解题。根据第三段第一句“The Chinese character for‘wind’and the character for‘phoenix’are almost the same,with just one stroke difference.”可知，标志上绘有“风”和“凤”两个汉字的甲骨文，而两个汉字本身也非常相似，这里的设计正是将它们做了一个结合。故选D项。

【2】细节理解题。根据第四段最后一句“This extraordinary combination represents how experts lead fashion,which in tum leads culture-and that culture is the basis of creativity.Therefore,it represents the importance of traditional Chinese culture in global creativity.”可知，两个汉字的结合代表了中国传统文化在全球创意中的重要作用，这正是设计者选用它们的原因。故选D项。

阅读理解主旨大意题中，考查文章主题大意是经常出现的类型。一篇文章一般要表达一个中心内容或主题，这个中心内容或主题通常用一个句子来概括，叫做主题句。一般来说，说明文和议论文都有主题句，而且多位于文章的开头。但有时不能直接在文中找到主题句，要求考生在把握每段的主题、弄清段落之间逻辑关系的基础上归纳总结。主题句必须能简洁明了地概括全文的主要内容，有高度的综合性和概括性。在阅读过程中可以从以下角度入手：1.把握文章逻辑结构，快速找出主题。典型的行文脉络有总分结构、分总结构、总分总结构等；2.找出或者提炼主题句，确定文章中心思想；3.从关联词上找到文段各个句子的关系，例如转折关系、递进关系、因果关系、必要条件关系、并列关系等，从而把握段落主旨句。
