It is to the north and west of the city of Birmingham, but, very importantly, does not include Birmingham. The Black Country includes the boroughs (自治城镇) of Dudley, Sandwell, Walsall and the City of Wolverhampton, with the town of Dudley being referred to as the Black Country's capital. The population of the area is about 1.2 million people.So, why is it called the Black Country? In the 19th century, the area was heavily industrialised. The iron and steel factories all used local coal to fire their furnaces(熔炉). And this produced a lot of black smoke. People also say that the name came from all the black coal that appeared on the surface of the ground. In fact, there was so much coal that the soil looked black.The Black Country is mostly famous for its association (联系) with the Industrial Revolution (between the 18th and 19th centuries). The Black Country Living Museum in Dudley recreates life in the Black Country in the early 20th century, and is a popular tourist attraction. The writer JRR Tolkien is also associated with the area, and his parents were from Birmingham. It is said that the land of Mordor from The Lord of the Rings novels is based on the heavily industrialised Black Country area. In “Elvish” language “Mor-Dor” means “Dark Land” and in the novels it is sometimes referred to as “The Black Country”.24. What do we know about the Black Country?A. Sandwell is its capital.B. It is made up of four areas.C. Two million people are living there.D. It is in the northwest of Birmingham.25. The Black Country got its name probably because of its _____.A. black coalB. black soilC. black buildingsD. black people26. What connects JRR Tolkien with the Black Country?A. The language he speaks.B. The place he was born.C. The books he wrote.D. His family.27. What's the purpose of the text?A. To discuss.B. To educate.C. To warn.D. To introduce.CPierre and Marie Lucien lived in Florida in a small two-bedroom apartment. Their monthly rent was $650. Pierre was a computer programmer and Marie was a homemaker. They dreamed about having their own home, but Marie wanted to stay at home with the children when they were small. When their son entered first grade, Marie got a job as a school bus driver. They were finally able to save money and in two years, they had $12,000 in the bank.They wanted a home in a town with good schools for their children and one that was close to their jobs. They spoke to a real estate agent (房地产经纪人) and she suggested that their first step was to get a mortgage. By doing this, they would know how much they could afford to spend on a house. So, they spoke to six banks about mortgages. They chose the bank with the best mortgage plan. The bank checked their jobs and two weeks later gave them a mortgage of up to $125,000.The real estate agent showed the Luciens over thirty houses. They finally found a home that they liked. It was $120,000. They offered the sellers $115,000, and they agreed on $117,000. The house was in a small town with good schools. The commute (通勤) was about fifteen minutes to Marie's job and twenty minutes to Pierre's job. The house had three bedrooms, two bathrooms, and a large living room. It didn't have a dining room, but it had a large eat-in kitchen. There were a few problems, too. It was on a busy street and it didn't have a garage.Finally, the Luciens paid $7,000 for a down payment (首付). They decided on a 30-year mortgage on the $110,000. On the day of the closing, Pierre and Marie, the real estate agent and the owners of the house were all present. The closing only took an hour. When they were finished, Pierre and Marie shook hands with everyone. Then, they walked out of the door with the keys to their new home.28. Before working as a school bus driver, Marie _____.A. lived in a big apartmentB. put $12,000 in the bankC. was a computer programmerD. looked after her kids at home29.

It cost them $120,000.B. It was close to their jobs.C. It had a large dining room and a garage.D. It was in a quiet neighborhood of Florida.31. We may infer from the end of the text that the Luciens would be _____.A. very angryB. rather proudC. quite happyD. deeply worriedDMy name is Sara. When I was little, I played the drums. I also had a guitar. In fourth grade, I started playing the trombone (长号). I practiced about four hours a week. All of this might not seem like a big deal for a lot of kids, but there's something about me thatmakes me a bit different from others. I was born without hands. Since I was about one year old, I've worn prosthetics (假手).This year, I got an invitation to join the high school marching band (行进管乐队). I told my mom I wanted to do it. But I had an instructor who thought I would not be able to march in the band —not because it was a high school band and I'm only in seventh grade, but probably because my body is different. All I wanted was to show that I could do it, so I joined the band. And it paid off!Music gives me energy. That happens sometimes. One time I was so down, I didn't even want to get out of bed. Then I hit my mp3 player by accident. A song came on, and I got up and started dancing. It helped me say to myself, OK, I can get through today.Around my musician friends, we all share the same problems, like working out how many beats there are to a measure. I have a hard time counting the beats, but so do a lot ofthe other kids. It's a normal problem that we musicians share. When I'm with the band, I don't feel as different as I do in other situations. It's just another way that musicmakes me want to go on, and not to just sit down by myself and not care about life.32. In what way is Sara different from other kids?A. There's something wrong with her body.B. She knows how to play many instruments.C. She learned to play the drums at a very early age.D. She kept playing the trombone for the longest hours.33. When invited to join the marching band, Sara _____.A. said no at firstB. had no idea what to doC. followed the instructor's adviceD. believed that she would make it34. How does Sara probably feel when she's with the band?A. Bored.B. Relaxed.C. Successful.D. Afraid.35. What would be the best title for the text?A. A high school bandB. A young drummerC. The music of meD. My magic hands第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

ACompetition in the Olympics should be between athletes who use their own strength (力量) or speed. If some athletes don't follow the rules, it ruins (破坏) the fun for everyone connected with the game. It also gives an extremely unfair advantage to the athlete using the drug.— Jim from AtlantaDrug use among top athletes has long been a problem. Without drug testing, the Olympics would be about who uses the most drugs, not who trains the hardest and has the most athletic skills. Also drugs hurt people and they could even kill people.— David from HoustonWhy should athletes be allowed to compete when it's not really them who are actually competing? It's the drugs that do all the work. Athletes who use drugs are like runners with skates. It's cheating and should not be allowed. It's unfair to other competitors who don't use drugs.—Bruce from ChicagoMost sports athletes are held to a standard of being drug free. Olympians should not be held any differently. They take part in highly competitive sports for their country and win medals for it. Testing the athletes for drugs must be done in every country and every sport. No drug testing would be unfair to people who don't use drugs.— Sam from Los AngelesAlthough popular opinion is against athletes' using drugs, I believe they do help make the Olympic sports more wonderful. I enjoy seeing human beings achieving things that couldn't be done with normal conditioning. I enjoy seeing stronger, faster and longer performances with the help of drugs.— Jack from New York 21. What does David think of drug use in the Olympics?A. It's more common in top athletes than others.B. It's a difficult problem to deal with.C. It helps improve athletes' skills.D. It's bad for athletes' health.22. The underlined sentence in Paragraph 3 suggests that _____.A. using drugs is the same as cheatingB. drugs help athletes reach greater speedsC. runners should not be allowed to use drugsD. using drugs can not test athletes' real ability23. Both Jim and Sam mentioned _____.A. the popularity of the OlympicsB. the fairness of the OlympicsC. the rules of the OlympicsD. the fun of the Olympics24. The text is mainly written to _____.A. discuss whether Olympic athletes should be tested for drugsB. explain why drugs should be avoided in the OlympicsC. warn people of the bad influences of drug useD. call people's attention to sports and drugsBIn 1996, John Jones made an unusual discovery. He had just enlarged a piece of paper money for a friend — a Confederate bank note, money issued (发行) by banks in Southern States of America during the Civil War. When he was face to face with the picture, he couldn't believe his eyes: slaves (奴隶) happily picking cotton in their master's fields.Jones grew up in South Carolina. He had heard painful stories of slavery from his great-grandmother. The picture on the money did not match the history of African Americanslaves that he'd heard all his life. “I had never seen that type of picture on money before,” he said.Jones wondered why slaves looked so happy. He started doing research.Searching for and finding the answers to his questions changed his life. During two years' search, Jones found more than 120 different bills. He discovered that the bills had several things in common. They showed slaves working in jobs related to farming. Many of them showed healthy and smiling slaves at work. None of the bills showed the hardships of slavery.Jones wanted to share what he had learned. “I wanted other people to see what I had seen,” he said. He decided to make large paintings of the pictures on the money. After three years of work, Jones had painted more than 80 slavery scenes (场景). He paired each painting with the money on which the picture appeared. “The Color of Money” —an exhibit (展览) of his work — has toured the country.Jones' paintings tell an important story about the South 150 years ago. He likes to repeat the saying “The story is on the money.” In this case, the saying happens to be true.25. How did Jones feel when he saw the picture on the money?A. Angry.B. Painful.C.Excited. D. Surprised.26. Why did Jones do research on the money?A. He had never heard of Confederate money.B. He wanted to learn about American history through it.C. It showed slaves quite different from those in his mind.D. His great-grandmother told him some unusual stories about it.27. What did Jones find?A. About 120 different bills were issued during the Civil War.B. The difficulty of slaves was never shown on the bills.C. Slaves lived a harder life than he thought.D. Slaves worked long hours on farms.28. What's the best title for the text?A. Confederate MoneyB. Money Tells a StoryC. African American SlavesD. John Jones Changes AmericaCA team of middle schoolers from North Dakota has turned a prize-winning idea into reality with their Recycling Bin app (废物回收箱应用软件). The app encourages recycling by providing users with a searchable map of nearby recycling centers.The group of nine sixth graders from STEM Center Middle School, in West Fargo, North Dakota, came up with the idea as part of a school program for the Verizon Innovative App Challenge. The competition was designed by the Verizon Foundation to increase students' interest in science, technology, engineering, and math, or STEM. It asks students to think of an app that could solve (解决) a problem in their school. The students came up with the Recycling Bin when they saw a need for more recycling in their school for a long time. “We thought that this would really help a lot of people,” Jaden Hilkemann, 12, said.They kept their idea simple so that anyone could use it. The middle schoolers were surprised when they were among the ten national winning teams. “I didn't think our app was this good!” Joram Stith, 12, said. “We were the youngest winning group.”With the help of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology's Media Lab, they turned their idea into an app ready for download. “We had groups of two or three people each developing one part of the app,” Hunter Koehmstedt, 12, said. “We worked together and it was great.” Jacob Pfeifer, 12, added that they learned a lot working together. “At fir st, we all didn't agree on exactly what we wanted it to do, but in the end we all came to an agreement,” he said.In June, the free Recycling Bin app became available for download. “I was very excited when it went up on the app store,” Seralyn Blake, 12, said. “A lot of my family members downloaded the app. It was pretty cool.”29. What do we know about the Verizon Innovative App Challenge?A. It was held by STEM Center Middle School.B. It is a competition for middle school students.C.

The idea for the Recycling Bin _____.A. proved to be highly usefulB. came into being quite by chanceC. came from a 12-year-old in West FargoD. resulted from the bad recycling situation in North Dakota31. What did the group of nine sixth graders think of their app?A. It was popular among middle school students.B. Its winning was beyond their expectations.C. It was the simplest of the winning apps.D. It was good enough to win.32. While turning their idea into reality, the prize-winning members _____.A. learned a lot from each otherB. could hardly reach an agreementC. had no idea how to divide the workD. downloaded an app for further researchDDuring the day, Mike Kosciuk teaches students at De La Salle Collegiate High School in Michigan.

ACalvin Gillian didn't believe that Norway was the place for an adventurous holiday.However, some friends told him to go there and he loved it.“I'm an extreme-sports maniac. I've traveled to many different countries, but I didn't expect Norway to be a good place for an extreme holiday. Tourists usually visit Norway because of its old Viking history or to go fishing and boating in the famous fjords (峡湾) to enjoy a relaxing holiday, or to go climbing to enjoy the beauty of nature. But I didn'tgo for fishing; I wanted adventure.“Skiing (滑雪) is the best thing you can do in Norway. Svartisen, the Black Ice glacier (冰川), is wonderful. The ice is not the usual white but a deep blue color, like the sea. However, you have to wear special clothes, because skiing on a million-year-old glaciercan be very dangerous.“Then, there is Hunderfossen Family Park or Troll Park. You can go water skiing and ice skating. It is certainly a beautiful place but it is more expensive than visiting otherparts of Norway.“I also visited the Holmenkollen Ski Jump in Oslo. The view from the top of the ski jump was wonderful and the ski museum was very interesting. I wanted to try a jump but unfortunately, it's only for professional ski-jumpers. Anyway, I was very tired and I needed a break, so I went back to my hotel and got some sleep.“Next year, I am going to take my girlfriend to Norway, too. She is having her holiday in Australia now and she wants to have a different type of adventure for next year.”21. How did Calvin Gillian feel about his trip?A. Bored.B. Relaxed.C. Satisfied.D. Disappointed.22. The underlined word “maniac” (in Para. 2) refers to someone who _____.A. has a strong interest in somethingB. has a bad opinion of somethingC. expects things to be successfulD. likes to compete with others23. What did Calvin Gillian do in Norway?A. Ski-jumping.B. Climbing.C. Fishing.D. Skiing.24. What's the best title for the text?A. Calvin Gillian's Holiday PlansB. Travel in Different CountriesC. Historical Places in NorwayD. A Norwegian AdventureBScientists have been working to grow meat “in vitro,” or in a laboratory, for many years. In the laboratory, they mix cells (细胞) from a horse and a pig. They feed the cells to help them increase in number and grow into a small piece of meat.Right now, the meat that scientists have made is very small and looks gray because in vitro meat does not need blood to grow. But this is not its only problem. It takes a long time for the meat to grow and scientists do not know how to make a large amount (数量). It also costs a lot of money to make in vitro meat. Making enough for one meal would cost$250,000.Although producing in vitro meat has many problems, scientists continue to work because in vitro meat would have many advantages. Since we have 7,000,000,000 people on the planet to feed, in vitro meat can help lower the need for the earth's resources (资源). Besides, “Moving the production of meat from farms to laboratories would help cut down the huge amount of harmful (有害的) gases produced by farm animals,” says reporter NickCollins.In vitro meat could solve (解决) many of the problems of animal meat. But can humans eat this in vitro meat? Scientists do not know if it even tastes like real meat. Because of food research laws, they are not yet able to taste their meat. But they hope someday people can buy it in their local market. They say it is real meat and it is just made in adifferent way.A lot of people are still worried about in vitro meat. However, it will be years before the meat is ready to sell. Kate Shepard, a writer for Mother Jo nes magazine, says, “It will require hard testing before it can be fed to humans. It is still such a new idea that we do not know yet what health problems it may have. Right now, there are no rules for invitro meat.”25. What are the scientists trying to find out in their experiment?A. How to get a new kind of animal.B. How to make a new kind of meat.C. How to make animal meat taste better.D. How to greatly increase animals' numbers.26. What's Paragraph 2 mainly about?A. The ways to improve the experiment.B. The bad influence the experiment brings.C. The problems scientists face in the experiment.D. The difficulty in collecting money for the experiment.27. What does Nick think of in vitro meat?A. It stops people's cruelty to animals.B. It is environmentally friendly.C. It is against the rules.D. It worries him a lot.28. According to scientists, in vitro meat _____.A. is safe to eatB. tastes like real meatC. may be successful in the futureD. will soon be available on the marketCCALGARY, CANADA — It was one of the most important phone calls Bruce Burrell has ever received, a call warning that a flood (水灾) was headed Calgary's way.“I got a phone call about five in the morning on Thursday from Len McCharles, who was on watch at the time, and he said ‘there has been big flooding in Canmore and it's heading this way,’” said Burrell, the head of the Calgary Emergency Management Agency.“I got up immediately, turned on the morning news, saw the pictures from Canmore and then called McCharles back. I said ‘open the Emergency Operations Centre.’”Burrell was in the EOC for 48 hours straight and it wasn't until Burrell left the centre for the first time that the disaster (灾难) hit him.“Once you step outside and you actually see it and hear it, it paints a completely different picture from what you thought you would be dealing with.”Calgary firefighters came to help the Calgarians who were influenced by floodwaters. Keal Prince, captain of the Calgary Fire Department remembers how a young boy lost his finger while helping a woman remove debris (瓦砾) out of her house.“As his finger got cut off it went into a fully loaded dumpster (装好的垃圾箱),” Prince said. “People had worked hours to get the dumpster loaded and now they're working tirelessly, quickly, to unload that dumpster, looking for that finger.”“We had to remove a lot of debris to find that finger. Luckily, the finger was found andit was reattached (重新接上),” Prince added.Burrell is proud of what the city has achieved so far. And he says the city couldn't have done it without hundreds of unsung heroes. “There were a lot of unbelievable things that went on during the flood and I think that is what Calgarians need to be proud of.”29. On the morning of Thursday, Burrell _____.A. recognised his house was floodedB. was called to go to Canmore to help peopleC. got to know from others about a coming disasterD. opened his house and found something was wrong30. Hearing what had happened, Burrell _____.A. called the centre to collect picturesB. reported the event to the TV stationC. went to the flooded areas immediatelyD. gave orders for work to be started at once31. It seemed that the young boy _____.A. was a great helpB. had a happy endingC. looked for his finger for hours aloneD. was hurt while unloading the dumpster32. We can infer from the last paragraph that Burrell _____.A. thinks highly of people in CalgaryB. has received praise from CalgariansC. thinks it's his duty to protect the cityD. feels the firefighters need more trainingDDebby Harris says she would never have started going to the Glastonbury Festival if her friend who runs a food stall (小吃摊) hadn't needed a hand a few years back. “I thoughtit would just be all noise, and I never liked rock music.” Now she says she would pay her friend to allow her to work on her stall! “The tickets sell like hot cakes, so it's the best way of making sure I can get to the five-day festival in June,” she points out.Nick Hendon has been going to the Cambridge Folk Festival, which takes place over a long weekend in summer at Cherry Hinton Hall, for over twenty years. His favourite festival area is the Club Tent where, as well as the invited artists, members of the audience (观众) can get up and perform. “My wife usually takes part. She has a beautiful voice,” he saysproudly.Joan Mitchell does her best to get to the International Eisteddfod, a dance and music festival which takes place every year during the second week of July in Wales. The festival is also famous for the final Sunday Evening Gala concert which usually has someof the biggest names in opera (歌剧) as guest performers. “I've seen Dame Kiri Te Kanawa, James Galway and Montserrat Caballe, but no one could ever match up to Luciano Pavarotti.He was truly breathtaking!”Graham Crosby tries to get to as many concerts as possible during the eight-week summer season of the Proms festival every year. The Proms is the largest classical (古典的) music festival in the world. “The atmosphere (氛围) is much more relaxed than at other classical concerts. In fact, the audience sometimes behave more like rock fans, jumping up and down to the music, which is really exciting.”33. According to Debby Harris, she _____.A. runs a food stall during the festivalB. gets the ticket for the festival from her friendC. doesn't like working for her friendD. doesn't need to buy a ticket to get to the festival34.

When I was sixteen, I could play baseball, throw a fastball at the speed of 90 miles an hour. I was also 5 : my high school coach was Ollie Jarvis, who 6 me the difference between having a dream and showing strong belief. One particular 7 with him changed my life forever.It was a summer and a friend recommended me for a summer 8 . This meant a chance for my first income ----- cash for a new bike and new clothes, andthe 9 of savings for a house for my mother. The opportunity was attractive, and I wanted to 10 at it.Then I realized I would have to 11 playing baseball in the summer to handle the work schedule, and that meant I would have to tell Jarvis I wouldn’t play it. I was 12 about this.When I told the matter to Jarvis, he was as 13 as I had expected.”You have your whole life to work,’’ he said. “But your 14 days are limited. You can’t afford to waste them.”I stood before him with my head 15 , trying to think of how to explain to him why my dream of buying my mom a house and making money was worth 16 his disappointment.“How much are you going to make in this job?” he demanded.“$3.25an hour the price of a 17 ?” he asked.That 18 made me realize the difference between wanting something right now and having a goal. I devoted myself to 19 that summer, and within the year I was offered a $20,000 contract. I signed with the Denver Broncos(丹佛野马对) in 1984 for $1.7 million, and bought my mother the 20 of my dreams.1.

Some value it highly, believing that it is responsible for social progress and prosperity. Others say that competition is bad; that it sets one person against another; that it leads to unfriendly relationship between people.I have taught many children who held the belief that their self-worth relied on how well they performed at tennis and other skills.For them, playing well and winning are often life-and-death affairs. In their single-minded pursuit of success, the development of many other human qualities is sadly forgotten.However, while some seem to be lost in the desire to succeed, others take an apposite attitude. In a culture which values only the winner and pays no attention to the ordinary players, they strongly blame competition. Among the most vocal are youngsters who have suffered under competitive pressure from their parents or society. Teaching these young people, I often observe in them a desire to fail. They seem to seek failure by not trying to win or achieve success. By not trying, they always have an excuse: “I may have lost, but it doesn’t matter because I really didn’t.” What is not usually admitted by themselves is the belief that if they had really tried and lost, that would mean a lot. Such a loss would be a measure of their worth. Clearly, this belief is the same as that of the true competition who try to prove themselves. Both are based on the mistaken belief that one’s self-respect relies on how well one performs in comparison with others. Both are afraid of not being valued. Only as this basic and often troublesome fear begins to dissolve can we discover a new meaning of competition.21. What does this passage mainly talk about?A. Competition helps to set up self-respect.B. Opinions about competition are different among people.C. Competition is harmful to personal quality development.D. Failures are necessary experiences in competition.22. Why do some people support competition according to the passage?A. It pushes society forward.B. It builds up a sense of duty.C. It improves personal abilities.D. It encourages individual efforts.23. What is the similar belief of the true competitors and those with a desire to fail?A. One’s worth lies in his performance compared with others.B. One’s success in competition needs great efforts.C. One’s achievement is determined by his particular skills.D. One’s success is based on how hard he has tried.24. Which point of view may the author agree with?A. Every effort should be paid back.B. Competition should be encouraged.C. Winning should be a life-and-death matter .D. Fear of failure should be removed in competition.三．七选五（共五小题，每小题2分，满分10分）This Way to DreamlandDaydreaming means people think about something pleasant, especially when this makes them forget what they should be doing. Daydreamers have a bad reputation for being unaware of what’s happening around them. They can see forgetful and clumsy. 25 They annoy us because they seem to be ignoring us and missing the important things.But daydreamers are also responsible for some of the greatest ideas and achievements in human history. 26 Can you imagine what kind of world we would have without such ideas and inventions?So how can you come up with brilliant daydreams and avoid falling over tree roots or otherwise looking like a fool?First, understand that some opportunities for daydreaming are better than others. Feeling safe and relaxed will help you to slip intodaydreams. 27 And if you want to improve your chances of having a creative idea while you’re daydreaming, try to do it while you are involved in another task-----preferably something simple, like taking a shower or walking, or even making meaningless drawings.It’s also important to know how to avoid daydreams for those times when you really need to concentrate. “Mindfulness”, being focused, is a tool that some people use to avoid falling asleep. 28Finally, you never know what wonderful idea might strike while your mind has moved slowly away. 29Always remember that your best ideas might come when your head is actually in the clouds.A. Having interesting things to think about also helps.B. They stare off into space and wander by themselves.C. Without wandering minds, we wouldn’t have relativity, Coke or Post-it notes.D. At one time, daydreaming was thought to be a cause of some mental illness.E. It involves slow, steady breathing for self-control that helps people stay calm and attentive.F. Daydreams are often very simple and direct, quite unlike sleep dreams, which may be hard to understand.Therefore, it’s a good idea to keep a notebook or voice recorder nearby when you’re in the daydream zone.四．语法填空（共10小题，每小题1.5分，共15分）Two things that I did may have let somepeople (think) that something is wrong with me. The first was when my wife asked me to have the clock (repair), I drove into the market place of my town. With the clock under my arm, I entereda shop. But it was a meat shop, I didn’t realize then. I stood there staring at the shopkeeper.I (be) his customer for a long time and the kind man smiled at me. This went on for several seconds before I realized where I was. There is no doubt that I should calmly bought a pound of meat, I merely nodded briefly and left.The other man in my town who probably thinks I am mad is Tony. Some years ago he was the manager of Mead’s Shop, and we knew each other quite well. One day he (stand) in the doorway of his shop when I passed. I was absent-minded and stared into space.“Hello, Mr. Herriot,” I heard his voice. I looked at him in puzzlement ---- I just had no ideahe was though his face was familiar. Then Isaw word “MEAD” in two-foot-high letters above the shop window.“Good morning, Mead,” I cried heartily and continued my way. I had gone only a few miles before I realized that my greeting hadbeen (polite). I turned back and said to him again. “Good morning, Mister Mead.” It was only when I had turned the corner of the street that I realized his name was Tony and the time was late last afternoon.五．改错题（共10小题，每小题1分，满分10分）I once play for our school football team．One of my teammate played so good that both thecoach and the other teammates liked him very much．As time went by，I became more and moreenvious of him，complain that he got the coach’s praise and appreciation，that I should haveenjoyed．Therefore，whenever he was on the pitch with me，I would refuse pass the ball tohim．Of course，our team suffered a lot of due to my envy of him．Lucky enough，the coachrealized that and pointed at my mistakes just in time．I felt very sorry and apologized for which I。

AWe were late as usual. My husband had insisted on watering the flowers in the garden by himself, and when he discovered that he couldn't manage he asked me for help at the last moment. So now we had an hour to get to the airport. Luckily, there were not many cars or buses on the road and we were able to get there just in time.We checked in and went direct to a big hall to wait for our flight (航班) to be called. We waited and waited but no announcement (通知) was made. We asked for information and the girl there told us that the plane hadn't even arrived yet. In the end there was another announcement telling us that passengers waiting for Flight LJ108 could get a free meal voucher (餐券) and that the plane hadn't left Spain for technical reasons. We thought that meant that it wasn't safe for the plane to fly. We waited again for a long time until late in the evening when we were asked to report again. This time we were given free vouchers to spend the night in a nearby hotel.The next morning after a bad night because of all the planes taking off and landing, we reported back to the airport. Guess what had happened while we were asleep! Our plane had arrived and taken off again. All the other passengers had been woken up in the night to catch the plane, but for some reason or other we had been forgotten. You can imagine how we felt!21. Before leaving for the airport, the author _____.A. helped water the flowersB. found it hard to start her carC. cleaned the garden by herselfD. made a phone call to her husband22. Why didn't the author's plane take off on time?A. The airport was too busy.B. The weather was terrible.C. Some passengers were late.D. Something was wrong with it.23. How did the author probably feel the next morning?A. Lucky.B. Excited.C. Angry.D. Nervous.24. What's the main idea of the text?A. It is important to be a polite passenger.B. A couple were left behind at an airport.C. It is dangerous to travel around in a plane.D. More and more airports provide a bad service.BSequoyah was born in the 1770s and grew up in the Cherokee village of Tuskeegee, Tennessee. He was skilled at working with silver jewelry (首饰). One day Sequoyah was advised to put his name on the silver jewelry he made. However, he could not write his name because Cherokee was only a spoken language. Sequoyah decided to learn how to write his name, so he asked one of his customers (顾客) to teach him, who knew English very well. From that time on, Sequoyah signed (签名) his work in English.Then Sequoyah realized that a written language was necessary for his people. In 1809, he started by making small drawings, and then he experimented with creating a letter for each sound in the Cherokee language. First, Sequoyah picked out all the sounds in the Cherokee language. Then he gave each sound a symbol. Unlike English, however, no two sounds shared the same symbol.Sequoyah's work was difficult and took him a lot of time. Worse, those around Sequoyah didn't understand what he was doing with all those strange symbols. Some raised doubts about his work. However, Sequoyah didn't stop working. In 1821, Sequoyah completed his alphabet (字母表). Each symbol in the alphabet symbolized one of the eighty-five sounds in the Cherokee language. By saying the name of each symbol, a person could read the spoken word.Sequoyah taught the symbols to his six-year-old daughter, Ayoka. One day, they went to visit the elders of the Cherokee Nation. Sequoyah asked Ayoka to leave while he wrote down what the elders said. When Ayoka returned, she read out loud what Sequoyah had written. The elders were stunned. Ayoka was able to repeat their words without being present! Sequoyah's alphabet was soon accepted as the written language of the Cherokee Nation.25. Sequoyah learned to sign his work _____.A. so that he would become famousB. with the help of one of his customersC. when he moved to a Cherokee villageD. in order to save the Cherokee language26. What can we learn about Sequoyah's alphabet?A. It is made up of eighty-five letters.B. It uses at least two letters to symbolize a sound.C. It was created in the early eighteenth century.D. It was the same as the English alphabet at first.27. The underlined word “stunned” in the last paragraph probably means“_____”.A. worriedB.thankfulC. regretfulD. surprised28. What would be the best title for the text?A. The Cherokee NationB. A popular languageC. A gift beyond priceD. Fine silver jewelryCHow do young children learn to have good values? How can parents teach their children about the importance of kindness and patience? At a time when more and more parents worry about the violent images (暴力形象) their children see on TV, some are turning to fairy tales (童话).It is believed that fairy tales have a great influence on children because they describe the two sides of good and evil (邪恶) very clearly. When children hear the stories, they learn to care about others' feelings. In each tale, they can see that there are many different kinds of people in the world and that we all have a choice about what kind of person we want to be. We can choose to do good actions, rather than bad ones, in our lives.What kind of values can children learn from fairy tales? In The Princess and the Pea (《豌豆公主》), a poorly dressed girl, who insists she is a princess, is given a difficult test by the Queen. When she passes the test, we learn that her dream comes true because she stays true to herself. In The Little Mermaid (《小美人鱼》), the mermaid, who lives under the sea, wishes to be with the humans on land. Through her experiences, we learn about the importance of living with and accepting other cultures. In Pinocchio, a wooden puppet (木偶) turns into a boy when he finally learns how to tell the truth.Teaching values is the reason most often given for encouraging children to read stories. These fairy tales can teach children lessons about humanrelationships that are accepted around the world for many centuries. This might be the reason why they have been around for so long and will not disappear any time soon.29. Why do fairy tales have a great influence on children?A. Fairy tales can teach them how to make a choice.B. Fairy tales can help them get higher scores at school.C. They can learn how to avoid most difficulties in their lives.D. Good and evil are shown in a way they can easily understand.30. The Little Mermaid may be helpful when children _____.A. are given a difficult testB. make friends with foreignersC. wish to be a princess or princeD. are going to lie to their parents31. The author writes the text mainly to _____.A. introduce some fairy talesB. talk about the history of fairy talesC. discuss how to improve human relationshipsD. show how fairy tales help children shape valuesDHi, everyone! I am Paul Hawking, the trip leader for this weekend's activity.It's that time of the year again when the days are long and it is nice to sit outside and enjoy some oysters (牡蛎).We plan to head out to the Mission Bay this Sunday for a beach picnic.

四川省宜宾市一中2017-2018学年高三英语上学期第4周试题
四川省宜宾市一中2017-2018学年高三英语上学期第4周试题2015级高三上期第4周英语试题第一节（共15 小题；每小题2分）阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C 和 D）中，选出最佳选项。
AFor many people in the US, sports are not just for fun. They’re almost a “religion”. Thousands of sports fans buy expensive tickets to watch their favorite teams and athletes play in person. Other fans watch the games at home, sticking to their TV sets, never missing a game. Many a wife becomes a “sports widow” during her husband’s favorite season. America’s devotion to sports has created a new class of wealthy people ---professional athletes. Sports stars often receive million-dollar salaries. Some even make big money by appearing in advertisements for soft drinks, shoes and almost everything.Sports are an important part of American culture. Throughout their school life, Americans learn to play many sports. Many students try out for the school teams. Athletic events at universities attract scores of fans and benefit the whole community. Many people also enjoy non-competitive activities, like hiking, cycling, horseback riding, camping or hunting.Many sports were imported from other countries. Europeans brought tennis, golf, bowling and boxing to America. Football and baseball came from other Old World games. Only basketball has a truly American origin. Americans export sports fever as well. Satellites broadcast games to sports fans around the globe. NBA is a good example. The names of American superstars like basketball giant Michael Jordan have become household words all over the world.1. We can infer from the first paragraph that the meaning of “widow” is .A.one who is serious in religionB. one who is devoted to sportsC. one who lost her husbandD. one who has interest in games2. Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?A. The US sports stars can earn a large sum of money via the media.B.American students go in for various sports and athletic events.C.Lots of American people take part in non-competitive activities.D.American people like to exchange different sports from each other.3. The writer mainly intends to tell us _.A. how important sports are in AmericaB. where sports can help to make moneyC. why sports are so popular in AmericaD. what affect Americans’ everyday lifeBOf all the animals in the animal kingdom, which one (aside from man) is the cleverest?There are several ways of measuring the intelligence of animals. In one test a scientist sets three samecans on a table. While the animal watches, he puts food under one of the cans. Then he leads the animal away. Some time later, he brings it back to see if it remembers which can has the food. No smelling is allowed; the animal must go directly to the correct can or it fails.This is called a delayed- response text. The idea is to find out how long an animal’s memory can keep information. The scientists would try showing the cans to the animal one hour later, or two hours later, or even a full day later. They discovered that chimpanzees and elephants had the best memory, and were able to remember the correct can for at least twenty hours. No other animal is close. Dogs came next, but they only remembered for nine hours.To settle the matter, the scientists designed a huge maze (迷宫) and ran the chimps and elephants throughit. The maze was very difficult, with many blind paths and dead ends. It took the chimps (chimpanzees) ten minutes to find their way out. The elephants needed half an hour. Even allowing for the elephants’ slower rate ofspeed, the test shows that chimpanzees are the cleverest animals.From this and other tests, the scientists drew the following conclusion: an animal’s intelligence depends on the size of its brain in proportion (比例) to the size of its body. The elephant’s brain weighs ten pounds. But this is only 1/600th of its 6,000 pounds body.A chimp’s brain weighs about one pound, or 1/120th of its total body weight. So in proportion to its body size, the chimp has four times as much brain as the elephant----more brain for less body. The chimp is the champ!4. Which is the best title?A. The Elephant’s MemoryB. The Cleverest AnimalC. Judging IntelligenceD. The Chimp’s Brain5.According to the passage, a rhinoceros (犀牛) that weighs 2100 pounds, and has a 3-pound brainis .A. as clever as a chimpB. more clever than an elephantC. less clever than an elephantD. as clever as an elephant6. The delayed-response test is designed to test an animal’s.A. eyesightB. brainC. learning abilityD. memory7. The passage tells that elephants _.A.never forget thingsB. are more clever than chimpsC. are slower-moving than chimpsD. have better memories than chimpsCTrends come and go but style is eternal(永恒的) .So what is the latest fashion trend that defines thisseason? Let’s take a look at the fashion trend in 2016 and be the first ones to embrace the latest trend.Head----It seems like everyone will be wearing a bucket hat(渔夫帽) this season. Bucket hat might sounda bit old-fashioned for some people, but the 90s trend is in season again! Spring and summer are always the seasons for casual clothes, so pairing the bucket hat with casual shorts or skirts would be your outfit to go in this spring and summer in 2016.Bottom—Summer is the season when everyone gets ready for the humid weather. The current season trendis making everyone have a more comfortable summer because wide-leg bottoms is in trend again. Perhaps not everyone likes wide-leg bottoms because this could possibly make people look shorter, choosing a high-waist wide-leg bottom and matching it with crop top will definitely make you look taller and trendy in 2016.Dress---Be prepared for embracing the feminine details this season. Ruffles(荷叶边)around the sleeve orruffles all-over the dress will be everyone’s favorite in 2016. All these little details will transform your look in season. Simple colors like pink and black are designer’s favorites in this season too.Shoes---Many people thought wedges are also the shoes to go in spring and summer time, but in 2016, veryflat flats are in trend again. Shoe designers are trying to have more combinations flats or low-heels with less of gender identity.Accessories----No outfit goes perfect without accessories. Adding statement accessories to your simpleand natural outlook this summer is your day-to-night outfit. These jewels are doing to make you feel completed in day time and sparkled at night.8.

Everyone is wearing a bucket hat.B. Bucket hats in the 90s were old-fashioned.C. Nowadays most people do not like bucket hats.D. Maybe you will match the bucket hat with casual shorts this spring.10.

What will fashion icons do in 2016 except .A. prefer flat shoesB. prefer complex colorsC. wear dresses with ruffles(荷叶边) around the sleevesD. choose a high-waist wide-leg bottom and match it with crop topDHollywood is on the edge of a nervous breakdown. Worried about an industry wide writers’strike, struck by a series of theater-chain bankruptcies(破产), burdened with unreasonable corporate profit, requirements and seemingly incapable of producing consistently creative movies, the American film industry is in a period of soul-searching. There’s little doubt it will survive this crisis. But most insiders agree there is disease at both ends of the business—where films are produced, and where they’re shown---that may take years to overcome.While annual box-office income increases for nine straight years, largely due to increased ticket prices, the number of actual tickets sold declined for the second year in a row. The construction boom has added nearly 10,000 theaters (more than 200,000 more seats) in the last five years. But due to a static(静止的)audience base, eight major chains have gone into bankruptcy and several others are in terrible financial situations.In fact, insiders say, Hollywood is now in a business it does not want to be in. “There’s a general problem because the companies that have the most consistent output of material are least interested in what they’re making,” says former 20th Century Fox CEO, Bill. And, Bill adds, “We’re in a period where movies are getting bigger and more costly and less interesting and fulfilling to an audience.”Today the studios are under the stress to increase profit margins(营业利润) for their corporate parents, and profit margins are hard to control in a business whose products are seen as impulse buys. Other business can increase profits by cutting costs—buying cheaper material, or making the candy bar smaller. Not Hollywood.“What we’re cutting is risk,” says the head of one major studio, who asked not to be named, “And risk is what great film has always demanded.”While the studios are avoiding risky concepts, their competitors in the home entertainment business have been expanding the boundaries of the imagination. It was this pressure---in electronic games, the Internet----that forced the movie theater chains into a self-destructive craze of expansion.12.Which is NOT the worry of the American film industry according to the passage?A.Theater-chain bankruptcy.B. Lack of the advertisement funds.C. The stress to increase corporate profit.D. Being unable to produce creative movies.13.What has directly caused major theater-chains in terrible financial situations?A.Bigger movies.B. More costly movies.C. Increased ticket prices.D. More theaters but an unchangeable audience base.14.What do we know about the profit of the film industry?A.It’s not easy to control the profit.B.The studios can shorten the material.C.Cutting the cost can increase the profit.D.The studios can buy cheap material to increase profits.15.What’s the main idea of the passage?A.Hollywood will survive financial crisis.B.Hollywood is on the edge of destruction.C.It’s hard to increase the profits of the studios.D.The construction boom leads to theater-chain bankruptcies.第二节（共5小题; 每小题2分，共10 分）根据短文内容，从短文后的七个选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

AMake space in your summer for free funYou don't have to go to the moon to meet an astronaut: You can do it at the Air and Space Museum on July 16. Pioneering pilot Amelia Earhart disappeared on a flight around the globe in 1937. But she'll be at the National Air and Space Museum on July 16 — the museum's first Family Day of the season — to tell you all about her adventures. (Okay, it's actually an actress pretending (假装) to be Earhart.) NASA astronaut Patrick Forrester will be there to answer your questions, too. Come learn how space exploration (探索) changed the world.Another Family Day event takes place on July 25. At “Discover the Moon Day!” you can steer (驾驶) a robotic rover (a vehicle for exploring the surface of a planet), examine meteorites (陨石) that were found on the moon, see the capsule that took the Apollo 11 astronauts there and back and view photos of the lunar (月亮)surface using 3-D glasses.You can create lunar art and take a moon quiz. We'll give you one example: July 20, 1969 — 46 years ago thismonth. Do you know what happened that day?National Air and Space MuseumIndependence Avenue at Sixth Street SWOpen daily 10 a.m. to 7:30 p.m. through September 1 (with a few early closings at 5:30 p.m.; visit our websitefor details).Family Day programs are from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m.Information specialists are available Monday through Friday from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. and Saturday from 9 a.m. to 4p.m.All ages, but best for age 7 and older.For more information, call 202-633-2214 or go to .21.

I was just ten years old when my father decided to take me to see a stunt (特技) show starring the famous motorcyclist, Evel Knievel. After seeing the amazing stunts, I started dreaming aboutriding bikes and performing stunts myself one day.My whole childhood was spent at skate parks; there was a group of us that would go there every day after school with our BMX bikes (a type of bicycle designed to ride on rough ground). After all, I would need to get somepractice if I was going to be like my hero!My later teenage years were spent competing in endless BMX freestyling championships; some I won and others I lost. But it was never about the trophies (奖杯). The atmosphere was magical, with over 1,000 riders at some events. I just loved the rush of energy I got from this, and from continuously trying newer, more daring stunts.In 1995, I was chosen to compete in an important international action sports competition. For once in my life I was nervous. I landed badly on my hand and got injured. It took me out of the sport for a while, but my attitude was: …If others have suffered (遭受痛苦) more and gone on, then why can't I?’ I had once read that EvelKnievel suffered a total of thirty-five broken bones!When the International Olympic Committee made BMX an Olympic sport, I couldn't have been more delighted! The way I see it, the sport finally got the recognition it deserved. Its entry into the Olympics encourages morepeople to take it up seriously.I have heard some people say that BMX is too dangerous for kids. The risks, though, are really no greater than, say skateboarding. With riders pushing the limits (限度) far beyond what I could ever have imagined when I first started riding professionally, BMX seems set to remain one of the most exciting sports in history.24. The author wanted to become a stunt performer _____.A. in his teenage yearsB. because of a related showC. under the influence of his fatherD. with encouragement from a famous motorcyclist25. As a teenage BMX-er, the author _____.A. didn't think a lot of winningB. didn't take the sport seriouslyC. enjoyed attention from othersD. cared too much about gain and loss26. How did the author feel after his accident in 1995?A. He felt discouraged.B. He would never be like his hero.C. He would continue BMX as always.D. He felt a need to change his attitude to BMX.27. What does the author say about BMX?A. It is unsafe for kids.B. It is not dangerous at all.C. It is far beyond riders' control.D. It is not as risky as people think.CEver wonder where chocolate chip cookies came from? Or why we use waffles (华夫饼) as ice cream cones? Mistakes that Worked, written by Charlotte Foltz Jones, award-winning author of non-fiction (非小说类写实文学) books for children, offers forty of these unusual tales, along with many interesting drawings and strange andamazing facts.The book is divided into six parts: food, medicine, toys, accidental things, names and clothes. I find the book great because if not for the book, I would never have known that something was actually accidentally created. Besides, I like to learn real information; I can't stand books with stories that aren't real. Although this is a non-fiction book and is about inventions, it is not a history of technology book; it's more of an easy reading book. This book would be attractive to both boys and girls, and it could actually be either an adult book or a children'sbook.Published (出版) in 1991, the book is a bit old and is showing its age now in 2016. Still, it contains lots of great information, even though some facts are not exact. I love the idea of a mistakes book, and I especially like the format (安排), which allows readers to dip in and out of the book easily. However, the entries are not all equally strong. Additionally, if you don't live in the US, the book makes little sense, since it is full of Americanreferences both historically and in terms of customs.Anyway, Mistakes that Worked is a reminder that failure is not always the end. It is an enlightening (富有启发性的) book that encourages us to realize that taking risks and learning to experiment is often the best way to learn, even if we don't end up creating something new and wonderful.28. What kind of book is Mistakes that Worked?A. It's a picture book.B. It's science fiction.C. It's an adult book.D. It's a historical novel.29. What can we infer about the author?A. He reads too little.B. He is a slow reader.C. He is a great reader of non-fiction.D. He enjoys reading books about inventions.30. Which of the following does the author especially like about the book?A. Its facts.B. Its organization.C. Its entries.D. Its references.31. What is the author's opinion on the book?A. It's a fun read.B. It's a perfect book.C. It makes little sense.D. It's full of factual mistakes.DMaking it to the Scripps National Spelling Bee (a spelling competition) is an amazing achievement for any kid, but for 11-year-old Neil Maes, being born deaf made his journey especially unlikely.After receiving cochlear implants (人工耳蜗) in both ears as a baby, he had to train his brain to understand spoken words. It took countless hours of speech therapy (疗法).“We didn't even know that he'd be able to talk,” said his mother, Christy Maes.Now the soft-spoken kid from Belton, South Carolina is officially one of the nation's top young spellers. He earned the right to take the stage in the final rounds of the Scripps National Spelling Bee.Neil's parents have always given him a tip, coaching him to always ask the pronouncer for the meaning of a word, so that he can be sure he heard it correctly. Most contestants do this anyway.“He's able to spell very difficult words. You tell him, …Spell this word,' and he's able to actually imagine what that sounds like in his head and spell the word. It's actually quite impressive,” said Dr. Michael Hoa, who performed Neil's cochlear implantation. “There's a lot that goes into training your brain to do that.”Neil's parents didn't know he was taking part in a spelling bee with his third-grade class until he came home and told them he had won. He made it all the way to his regional bee that year, finishing second. Now a naturally shy fifth-grader, Neil is already worn out from the busy bee-week schedule (日程表), but he seems happy.“Our main hope out of all of this was to encourage people that are going to be facing what we had to face,”Christy said.But Neil said coming to the bee has motivated (激发) him to study even harder, so he can return next year.“It's just fun and I want to do it again,” Neil said.32. What makes it difficult for Neil to enter the competition?A. He is naturally shy.B. He is unable to talk.C. He has a hearing disability.D. He is undergoing medical treatment.33. What does the un derlined word “it” (in Para. 5) refer to?A. The tip from Neil's parents.B. The coach's pronunciation.C. The meaning.D. The word.34. What did Michael think of Neil?A. He's amazing.B. He's very lucky.C. He should study harder.D. He should use his imagination.35. What's the best title for the text?A. Hard training will finally pay offB. We can do more for disabled childrenC. Spelling bees are becoming more popularD. Deaf 11-year-old competes in National Spelling Bee第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

They map and analyze (分析) the housing, energy, and transportation requirements of their own district and foretell its needs in 100 years. With the aid of an architect (建筑师) who visits the classroom once a week, they invent new ways to meet these needs and build models of their creations. “Designing buildings of the future gives children a lot of freedom,’’ says the teacher who developed this program. “They are able to use their own rich imagination and inventions without fear of blame, because there are no wrong answers in a future context. In fact, as the class enters the final model-building stage of the program, an elected ‘official’ and ‘planning group’ make all the design decisions for the model city and the teacher steps back and becomes an adviser.CBEP is a set of activities, games and imitations that teach the basic steps necessary for problem-solving: observing, analyzing, working out possible answers, and judging them based on the children’s own standards.21．The program is designed to_________.A. direct kids to build solar collectorsB. train young scientists for city planningC. develop children’s problem-solving abilitiesD. help young architects know more about designing.22．An architect pays a weekly visit to the classroom to ________.A. find out kids’ creative ideasB. help kids with their programC. discuss with the teacherD. give children a lecture 23．Who is the designer of the program?A. An official.B. An architect.C. A teacher.D. A scientist24．The children feel free in the program because __________.A. they can design future buildings themselvesB. they have new ideas and rich imaginationC. they are given enough time to design modelsD. they need not worry about makingmistakesBAre you nervous about climbing because you think it's too dangerous? Do you feel you're not fit enough to climb? Do you know how to start climbing?Let's consider the idea that climbing is dangerous．Being afraid is natural, but if you use suitable ropes and other climbing equipments you will feel completely safe．Climbers are usually very careful because they know what they are doing is dangerous．Accidents happen, but when they do, they tend to attract a lot of publicity．As a result, people think there are many more accidents than there are in reality．You cannot expect to start climbing straight away．Climbing is a challenge and challenges take time．It is necessary first of all that you achieve a good level of fitness．Begin as soon as you become interested in climbing? go to the gym, go swimming, take up jogging and continue to do so throughout your training period．Discover as much as you can about climbing．Visit the library and find book, especially for beginners or buy climbing magazines and look for articles which describe your situation．Look up information on the Internet．Find out about equipment, methods and places to go．Next, take a course on a climbing wall．There are plenty of climbing walls all over the country which have trained and qualified people as instructors．Call your local leisure centre to find out if there is one in your area. These training sessions are a quick way to get experience and you are likely to meet other beginners. After this, you can do an outside course of joining a club where you can meet climbers of all abilities and eventually join in group-climbing events.At first you may not understand the importance of a good training period, but after you have completed your first climb and you are standing safely at the top of a rock feeling thrilled, then you will know it was the right thing to do. 25．The article is written by .A．a doctor B．an experiencedclimber C．a beginner D．a fitness instructor26．The writer thinks a new climber should .A．begin by becomingfit B．have the courage to meet the challengesC．be aware of the causes of the accidents D．do enough sports to get interested in climbing27．By climbing walls you can .A．join a club youlike B．gain controlled experienceC．become qualified instructors D．take part in group-climbing events28．The underlined word “it” in the last paragraph probably means .A．the climb B．the training C．the equipment D．the achievement第三节语法填空（共10小题；每小题1.5分；满分15分）阅读下面材料，在空白处填入适当的内容（一个单词）或括号内单词的正确形式。

He had to be supported by his father and was also helped by the writer Émile Zola, his boyhood friend. Only in the last ten years of his life was his greatness recognized.Paul Cézanne was born in Aix-en-Provence, France, on Jan. 19, 1839. His father, Louis-Auguste, was a successful banker. Cézanne received an education at the Collège Bourbon andstudied drawing at the Aix Museum. After studying for a short time at law school and working in his father’s bank, he went to Paris to study painting. Then he often returned to Aix. He worked many summers painting the scenery near his father’s home away from th e center of the city.During the Franco-Prussian War, in 1870, Cézanne fled to L’Estaque, near Marseilles. With him went Hortense Fiquet. In 1872 their son Paul was born.Cézanne took part in the first exhibition of impressionist (印象派的) paintings in 1874, though he later broke with the impressionists. He was more concerned with structure and color than with the effects produced by light.Not until Cézanne was about 60 years old did galleries and museums begin to look for his works. Even with his newfound success he still remained unsociable. However, he continued to paint until a week before his death on Oct. 22, 1906.Most 20th-century painters were influenced by Cézanne. He invented a way of modeling three-dimensional (三维的) forms by painting in small areas of color. He painted from nature but often changed a shape or its color to express its special effect. His finest works are very calm and peaceful but they are powerful expressions of forms in space.28. During most of his life, Paul Cézanne seemed to _____.A. be a failureB. be a great artistC. like to help othersD. like to make friends29. What was Paul Cézanne’s attitude towards impressionist paintings in his later life?A. Hopeful.B. Uncertain.C. Favorable.D. Uninterested.30. The last paragraph mainly tells us about Paul Cézanne’s _____.A. finest worksB. painting styleC. favorite paintersD. powerful influenceDLast month, the world’s oldest known message in a bottl e was discovered floating (漂浮) in the Baltic Sea. It had spent 101 years lost in the ocean! Last week, the message was sent to the author’s granddaughter.A German fisherman named Konrad Fischer found the brown bottle near Kiel, Germany. He says he nearly threw the bottle back into the water after pulling it out of a fishing net. Then he noticed something inside.The bottle in good condition contained a Danish postcard with two German stamps, dated May 17, 1913. Although dampness (潮湿) had made most of the writing illegible, the readable part of the message asked whoever found it to return it to an address in Berlin.From the address, researchers found that the postcard was written by a man named Richard Platz, who was 20 years old when he wrote the message. Then they began a search for any living relatives. Sure enough, they were able to find his 62-year-old granddaughter, Angela Erdmann, who still lives in Berlin.“It was almost unbelievable,” Erdmann said upon being presented with her grandfather’s bottle a nd message. “That was a pretty moving moment. Tears rolled down my face.”Erdmann never knew her grandfather, who died in 1946, but says that the discovery of the bottle has made her want to learn more about him.The bottle will remain on display at the International Maritime Museum in Hamburg until May 1. After that, researchers will examine the postcard and try to figure out the meaning of the rest of the message.Until now, the oldest known message in a bottle had been written in 1914 and was discovered in 2012 by a Scottish fisherman. It had spent nearly 98 years at sea.31. When Konrad Fischer picked the bottle from the sea, _____.A. he found it had been brokenB. he knew it was the oldest bottleC. he noticed the postcard inside immediatelyD. he wanted to throw it back into the sea at first32.
