During the recently televised Chinese Character Dictation Contest by CCTV-10, when the host asked the 14-year-old contestant Yu Shuang from Guizhou Province to write the word for toad（蟾蜍）, the audience frowned. Yu failed as she wrote the character with one dot missing. However, among 10 adult participants offstage, only three had written the word correctly.

Meanwhile, those sitting at home also felt embarrassed during the broadcast, since on several occasions they were stumped as to how to write words that are commonly used in daily conversation.

According to a survey by Beijing-based Horizon Research Consultancy in May, up to 94.1 percent of respondents said they had encountered memory lapses（疏忽）concerning how to write certain characters while writing and 26.8 percent said such lapses were frequent.

Cell phone and computers are common devices to most urban children. A report on the lifestyle of Chinese children published by Beijing Women's Federation in July showed that mobile phones, instant messenger QQ, Weibo and tablets have become a major part of urban children's daily lives. According to the report, 52.6 percent of kids aged 4 to 6 had used the Internet. The percentage for kids aged between 7 and 9 reached 58.6 percent, and 77 percent for 10 to 12-year-olds. 【写作内容】1、以约30个词概括上文的主要内容。2、以约120个词就弘扬中国传统文化谈谈你的想法，内容包括：1）你或你身边的人是否经常出现汉字拼写错误？（2）谈谈造成这种现象的原因（3）我们应该怎样弘扬中国传统文化？ 【写作要求】

Taking Chinese Character Dictation Contest broadcasted on CCTV as an example, the passage points out that many people now have trouble in writing Chinese characters in daily life, which may be caused by the overuse of digital devices.

Nowadays, I feel a bit ashamed every time I am unable to write Chinese characters correctly, some of which are commonly used in our everyday life.

What causes this phenomenon? As is mentioned in the reading passage, the popularity of digital devices is a major contributing factor. Unlike older generations, young people today prefer typing instead of writing by hand. Besides, some wrongly-written advertising signs can be seen everywhere, which mislead people a lot.

We should attach great importance to Chinese traditional culture. First, we should call for the popularity of handwriting because Chinese characters are the most important part of Chinese culture. Opening calligraphy lessons in schools would be a meaningful way to rebuild children's interest in handwriting. Then, celebrating Chinese traditional festivals is also significant to pass on Chinese history and culture. In addition, don’t forget to protect the cultural relics around our

country, which are precious heritages left by our ancestors. 二、完形填空 A new word has suddenly become wildly popular in China — “tuhao”. It’s being used to describe 1 from the new building of People’s Daily to expensive 2 weddings full of millionaires, and the new gold-colored iPhone. In Chinese “tu” means 3 , and “hao” means rich. To say someone is tuhao is to 4 they come from a poor 5 background, and have made it rich quick — but don’t quite have the manners to 6 it. “Tuhao” is 7 an old word — dating back perhaps as 8 as the Southern Dynasty 1,500 years ago — but 9 has always meant something rather different. During the communist revolution, from the 1920s to early 1950s, it was widely used to refer to landholders and the gentry（乡绅）who would often do bad things to those 10 them. This new usage of the term 11 in September after a widely-shared 12 about a rich, but 13 man, who went to a Buddhist monk for advice, 14 to be told how to live a more simple life. The monk replied 15 with the phrase “Tuhao, let’s be friends.” Chinese 16 users are highly creative in their use of language, and are 17 inventing, and reinventing words as a way of getting past censorship（审查）rules. But in this 18 , its popularity seems to be down to the fact 19 it encapsulates（概括）China’s changing society so well — many people laugh at those with wealth, but are 20 jealous. 1. A. everybody B. everything C. everywhere D. everyone 2. A. ability B. security C. celebrity D. safety 3. A. earth B. sky C. space D. ash 4. A. announce B. cry C. remember D. imply 5. A. peasant B. solider C. scholar D. teacher 6. A. put up with B. get away with C. come up with D. go along with 7. A. usually B. eventually C. actually D. recently 8.
