B 解析：做风筝需要一块手帕，要求是丝质的。made of silk 此处作定语，修饰handkerchief。3. B解析：该实验中，手帕是丝质的，丝质手帕不光是轻，而且还结实，strong与后文的withstand (经受)相呼应。4. A 解析：根据常识，做风筝的材料要求越轻越牢就越好，用于
52、做风筝骨架的木头自然要轻。5. C解析：考查前后照应。在前文所准备的材料中，只有手帕有四个角，因此应该是handkerchief。6. D 解析：本题考查动词和介词的搭配。attach sth to sth将附着在上。7. A 解析：此处one指代前面出现的string，作string的同位语，后面只能用that 引导定语从句。8. A解析：结合语境，下文讲解如何一步一步制作风筝，因此此处应为三个重要的steps。9. B解析：此处考查动词词组的辨析。speak of意为“说到，提到”；stick out意为“伸出，突出”；cut off意为“切断，隔绝”；reach out意为“伸手”。根据
53、后文的beyond the frame， 可知是要伸出去一部分，故B为最佳。10. D解析：结合上下文，这是制作风筝的第二步，故next 最为恰当。11. C解析：后文出现了this silk ribbon，由此可知前文必定是要求拿一根丝绸的带子绑到风筝线的末端。故答案为C。12.
