问题 综合题

阅读下列材料

材料一:我国是最早发明植桑养蚕织丝绸的国家。秦汉时代,黄河中下游地区农村,户户房前屋后种了桑麻,有的富户拥有上千亩的桑麻。那时候,桑麻种植开始向南发展到湖北、湖南和四川。……丝织业经过唐末五代及北宋一个长时期的发展,大大改变了唐中叶以前的面貌。北宋时,丝织业的产地逐渐形成两浙和四川两个中心,……整个沿海地带都比较发达。

朝代
 
  材料二:中国古代人口地理分布的变化(人口密度:人/平方公里)

 西汉(公元2年)唐朝(752年)南宋(1210年)
黄河中下游地区42.832.353.2
江淮地区15.223.445.6
西南地区3.97.19.2
  ——摘自《简明宋史》

材料三:唐宋以后,北方森林植被遭到毁灭性的破坏,加上人口增殖对粮食需求的增加导致了耕地面积的不断扩大,北方再也看不到连片种植桑麻的景象了。

——摘自余桂元《历史教育在环境教育中可持续发展教育方面的潜能》

请回答:

(1)根据材料一,概括说明我国古代丝绸生产格局的变化。

(2)根据材料二、三,并结合所学知识,分析我国古代丝绸生产格局变化的原因。

(3)根据上述材料,你得到什么启示?

答案

(1)变化:唐朝中期以前,中国丝绸的产地主要在北方(黄河中下游地区);唐朝中期以后,南方的丝绸生产逐渐赶上并超过北方;北宋时,丝绸业的中心已移至四川和东南沿海地区,北方丝绸生产日益萎缩。

(2)原因:黄河中下游地区人口密度大,削减桑麻改种谷物;北方森林植被遭破坏,生态环境恶化;北方战争的破坏,大批技术工人南下;唐末五代以来我国经济重心逐渐南移;南方自然条件更适宜植桑养蚕。(只要能答出其中三点即可)

(3)要注意协调好经济发展与环境保护之间的关系,走可持续发展之路。

中国是丝绸大国,古代丝织技术水平一直居世界领先地位。这部分知识是中国古代史中主干知识之一,是高考常考的一个重点知识。本题以中国古代丝织业为切入点,考查古代丝绸生产格局的变化、原因及启示。审题时要抓准“生产格局”四个字。解题时,要注意充分运用材料中的历史信息作答。

He met her at a party. She was so outstanding, with many boys around her, while he was so normal, with nobody paying attention to him.

At the end of the party, he invited her to have coffee with him. She was surprised, but due to being polite, she agreed. They sat in a nice coffee shop. He was too nervous to say anything, and she felt uncomfortable, thinking, “Please let me go home.”

Suddenly he asked the waiter, “Would you please give me some salt? I’d like to put it in my coffee.”

Everybody stared at him—so strange!His face turned red, but, still, he put the salt in his coffee and drank it.

She asked him curiously, “Why do you have this hobby?”

He replied, “When I was a little boy, I was living near the sea. I liked playing in the sea, and I could feel the taste of the sea, just like the taste of the salty coffee. Now every time I have the salty coffee, I always think of my childhood. I miss my hometown so much. I miss my parents who are still living there.” While saying that tears filled his eyes. She was deeply touched. That’s his true feeling, from the bottom of his heart. A man who can tell out his homesickness, he must be a man who loves home, cares about home, and has responsibility of home. Then she also started to speak, about her faraway hometown, her childhood, her family. That was a really nice talk, also a beautiful beginning of their story.

They continued to date. She found that actually he was a man who meets all her demands; he was kind-hearted, warm and careful. He was such a good person but she almost missed him! Thanks to the salty coffee! Then the story was just like every beautiful love story, the princess married the prince, then they were living a happy life… And, every time she made coffee for him, she put some salt in the coffee.

After 40 years, he passed away, leaving her a letter which said, “My dearest, please forgive my whole life lie. This was the only lie I said to you—the salty coffee.”

“Remember the first time we dated? I was so nervous at that time. Actually I wanted some sugar, but I said salt. It was hard for me to change so I just went ahead.”

“I tried to tell you the truth many times in my life, but I was too afraid to do that, as I have promised not to lie to you for anything.”

“Now I’m dying, I’m afraid of nothing so I tell you the truth: I don’t like the salty coffee. What a strange bad taste! But I have had the salty coffee for my whole life!”

“Since I knew you, I never feel sorry for anything I do for you. Having you with me is my biggest happiness for my whole life. If I can live for a second time, I still want to know you and have you for my whole life, even though I have to drink the salty coffee again.”

Her tears made the letter totally wet.

Someday, someone asked her, “What’s the taste of salty coffee?”

“It’s sweet,” she replied.
