1．Preamble of《China：Democracy that works》 Published by the State Council on December 4，2021
Democracy is a common value of humanity and an ideal that has always been cherished by the Communist Party of China and the Chinese people.
This year marks the centenary of the CPC．Since its founding in 1921，the Party has taken wellbeing for the Chinese people and the rejuvenation of the Chinese nation as its abiding goals，and has made continuous efforts to ensure the people's status as masters of the country.China is a country with a feudal （封建的） history dating back several thousand years that descended into a semi-feudal and semi-colonial society after the Opium War of 1840.Over the past hundred years，the Party has led the people in realizing people's democracy in China.The Chinese people now truly hold in their hands their own future and that of society and the country.
The people's status as masters of the country is the essence of people's democracy.Since the 18th CPC National Congress in 2012，with a deeper understanding of China's path to democracy and the political system，the Party has developed whole-process people's democracy as a key concept and striven to translate it and relevant democratic values into effective institutions and concrete actions.
Whole-process people's democracy integrates process-oriented democracy with results-oriented democracy，procedural democracy with substantive （本質(zhì)上的） democracy，direct democracy with indirect democracy，and people's democracy with the will of the state.It is a model of socialist democracy that covers all aspects of the democratic process and all sectors of society.It is a true democracy that works.
Democracy is a concrete phenomenon that is constantly evolving.Rooted in history，culture and tradition，it takes diverse forms and develops along the paths chosen by different peoples based on their exploration and innovation.
The best way to evaluate whether a country's political system is democratic and efficient is to observe whether the succession of its leaders is orderly and in line with the law，whether all the people can manage state and social affairs and economic and cultural undertakings in conformity with legal provisions，whether the public can express their requirements without hindrance，whether all sectors can efficiently participate in the country's political affairs，whether national decision-making can be conducted in a rational and democratic way，whether people of high caliber in all fields can be part of the national leadership and administrative systems through fair competition，whether the governing party is in charge of state affairs in accordance with the Constitution and the law，and whether the exercise of power can be kept under effective restraint and supervision.
Democracy is not a decorative ornament，but an instrument for addressing the issues that concern the people.Whether a country is democratic depends on whether its people are truly the masters of the country；whether the people have the right to vote，and more importantly，the right to participate extensively；whether they have been given verbal promises in elections，and more importantly，how many of these promises are fulfilled after elections；whether there are set political procedures and rules in state systems and laws，and more importantly，whether these systems and laws are truly enforced；whether the rules and procedures for the exercise of power are democratic，and more importantly，whether the exercise of power is genuinely subject to public scrutiny and checks.
Democracy is the right of the people in every country，rather than the prerogative of a few nations.Whether a country is democratic should be judged by its people，not dictated by a handful of outsiders.Whether a country is democratic should be acknowledged by the international community，not arbitrarily decided by a few self-appointed judges.There is no fixed model of democracy；it manifests itself in many forms.Assessing the myriad political systems in the world against a single yardstick and examining diverse political structures in monochrome are in themselves undemocratic.
In the richly diverse world，democracy comes in many forms.China's democracy is thriving alongside those of other countries in the garden of civilizations.China stands ready to contribute its experience and strength to global political progress through cooperation and mutual learning.
（1）Which of the following is the foundation of people's democracy in China？
A．Fighting against the feudal power which held the nation backwards.
B．Striving to translate Whole-process democracy and relevant democratic values into effective institutions and concrete actions.
C．Asserting their power to rule the country effectively.
D．Ensuring that the public can express their requirements without hindrance and all sectors can efficiently participate in the country's political affairs.
（2）In which way could we tell if a country is in most aspects，ensuring people's political life fully democratic？
A．Its democracy being rooted in history，culture and tradition as well as taking diverse forms based on exploration and innovation.
B．Even a little bit of shade from the feudal history has been swept away while continuously reforming its democracy for the better.
C．Teenagers willing to take an active part in political activities such as the Simulated CPPCC．
D．People are able to exercise their rights within the scope of the law unhinderedly （不受阻地）.
（3）How can we better enjoy the advantage of Whole-process people's democracy？
A．Observing whether the succession of its leaders is orderly and in line with the law.
B．Raising our status as masters of the country with concrete actions.
C．Always innovating for a better future，not only for ourselves but also for our democracy.
D．Persisting in the Party's strong leadership.
（4）What is the main idea of this paragraph？
A．A full and accurate foreword introducing existing circumstances of democracy.
B．An informative official document giving people knowledge on democracy in China.
C．An introduction of how democracy works in China.
D．Telling people what are thus how to distinguish various kinds of democracy.發(fā)布：2024/6/14 8:0:9組卷：18引用：1難度：0.7 -

3． "What if I told you that I murdered Basil？"
"You couldn't murder anyone，Dorian.He probably fell into the Seine from a bus.By the way，where's that wonderful portrait he did of you？Oh!I remember now.You told me years ago that you sent it to Selby Manor and that it got lost or stolen on the way.What a pity!I wanted to buy it.I wish I had now." Lord Henry said.
"I never really liked it，" said Dorian.
"How have you kept your youth，Dorian？You must have some secret.I'm only ten years older than you are，and I'm wrinkled and old.Please，tell me your secret.To get back my youth，I'd do anything in the world，except take exercise，get up early，or be respectable."
When Dorian arrived home that night，he sent his servant to bed，and sat down on the sofa in the library.Then he began to think about his life.
"I've been an evil influence on my friends，and I've ruined the lives of many good young people，" he thought， "Ah!Why did I pray for the portrait to grow old，and for me to stay young？I worshiped beauty and eternal youth，but they ruined me.It's better not to think of the past.Nothing can change that.I must think of the future.James Vane is dead.Alan Campbell is dead，too.He shot himself one night in his laboratory."
"I'm safe now，" he continued. "Basil painted the portrait that ruined my life.I can't forgive him for that.Everything is the portrait's fault."
He began to wonder about the portrait. "If I'm good，maybe the portrait will become beautiful again，" he thought. "I'll go and look."
He took the lamp from the table and went upstairs.As he unlocked the door，he smiled. "Yes，I'll be good，" he thought， "I won't be frightened of this portrait any more."
He went upstairs to the room and locked the door.Then he pulled the purple cloth off the portrait.He gave a cry of pain.The portrait was more horrible.His face looked more evil.There was new blood on the hand and on the feet.
Dorian trembled with fear.Dorian looked round the room and saw the knife that stabbed Basil Hallward.It was bright and shining.
"This knife killed the artist，and now it will kill the artist's work，" he thought.
He grabbed the knife，and then he stabbed the portrait with it.
