However, not all the p ersons know that noise is also a kind of pollution, and that is harmful to human health, too.People who work and live under noisy conditions usually become deaf. Today, however, scientists believe that 10 percent of workers in Britain are being deafened b y the noise where they work. Many of the workers who print newspapers and books, and who weave(织)cloth become deaf. Quite a few people living near airports also become deaf. Recently it was discovered that many teenagers in America could hear no better than 65-year-old persons, for these young people like to listen to pop music and most of pop music is a kind of noise. Besides, noise produced by jet planes or machines will make people’s life difficult and unpleasant, or even make people ill or even drive them mad.It is said that a continuous noise of over 85 decibels(分贝)can cause deafness. Now the governments in many countries have made laws to control noise and make it less than 85 decibels.In China, the government is trying to solve not only air and water pollution problems but also noise pollution problems.56. The passage is mainly about ______ .A. air pollutionB. water pollutionC. noise pollutionD. world pollution57. According to the passage, a continuous noise of _______decibels can makepeople deaf.A. less than 85B. less than 65C. about 65D. more than 8558. 10 percent of the workers in Britain are being deafened because _______ .A. they are working in noisy placesB. they often listen to pop musicC. they live near airportsD. they are too busy to listen to others’talk59. The government of China is trying to reduce ______.A. only the air pollutionB. only the air and water pollutionC. only the water pollutionD. the air, water and noise pollutionBThese days, if you still think the cellphone is just for talking, you will get laughed at. Y es, it’s true, voice-only handsets have become out of date. Today’s do-it-all mobiles have a lot in common with the computer. The only difference may be that they fit in your pocket and you pay by the minutes to use them. Some of the things a cellphone can do for you will be available this year:Surf at speedCellphones that let you use the Web have been around for years. So, what’s new? Well, faster third-generation(3G) net works let you surf at anywhere. This then allows a carrier to send video, music, and games to your phone. Possible choices are from LG Electronic VX 8000 and Motorola V 1150.Listen as you goThe problem with most cellphone MP3 players is that they hold only a handful of songs. But, that’s about to change. Sony Ericsson’s new W800i can hold around 150 songs in its 500 MB memory. And Sumsung’s SPH-V5400 even comes with a 1.5 GB hard drive. Mobile phones may eventually replace mini-MP3 players, especially for teens.Say cheeseCamera cellphones are not new either. But, most of them have limitations: around 1-megapixel(百万像素). But new technology has made 2-megapixel units more common and 3-megapixel units are showing up soon. Some 2-megapixel models, like Sony Ericsson’s K750i, offer limited zoom and focus controls. Others, like LG’srecent MMA7110, can even capture 30 minutes of full- motion video.Portable TVY ou say you like ―watching TV‖? That’s what Sumsung MM-A700 wants to give you. The new model lets users watch popular TV programs—for a fee. Other choices are Nokia’s 6620, Sanyo’s MM 7400 and NEC’s N940.The NEC model lets you watch public TV—no fee.The above are just a handful of what you will see in the coming months. Further down the road, your mobile phone may play a host of other roles, such as mobile credit card, position locator… So what is there that a cellphone can’t do?60.Which of the following models should you choose to listen to the music?A.Sumsung’s SPH-V5400 and Nokia’s 6620B.Sony Ericsson’s W800i and Sumsung’s SPH-V5400C.Sony Ericsson’s W800i and NEC’s N940D.Sanyo’s MM7400 and NEC’s N94061.What’s the difference between NEC’s N940 and other models?A.It allows you to surf the Internet at a high speedB.It can capture 30 minutes of full-motion videoC.It can hold as many as 150 songsD.It lets you watch public TV for free62.Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?A.All the functions of the models mentioned in the passage are completely newB.Camera cellphones of 3-megapixel units will appear soon.C.It is certain that a cellphone can do anything in the near futureD.Today’s do-it-all mobiles have nothing in common with the computer63.This passage may be___.A.an instruction to some new models of cellphonesB.an advertisement trying to persuade you to buy new cellphonesC. a science fiction trying to attract readers’ attentionD. a survey to find the development of cellphones.CWithout proper training, dogs will behave like wild animals. They will spoil your house, destroying your belongings, fight other dogs and even bite you. Nearly all behavior problems are perfect normal dog activities that occur at the wrong time or place or are directed at wrong thing.One of the best things you can do for your dog and yourself is to train it. Obedience training doesn’t solve all behavior problems, but it’s the foundation for solving just about any problems. Training opens us a line of communication between you and your dog. Effective communication is necessary to instruct your dog about what you want it to do.Training is also an easy way to establish the social order. When your dogs obeys a simple request of ―Come here, sit‖, it is showing obedience and respect for you.. It is not necessary to establish yourself as top dog or leader of the dog pack(群) by using extreme measures. Y ou can teach your dog its subordinate(从属的) role by teaching it to show obedience to you. Most dogs love performing tricks for you to accept that youare in charge.Training should be fun and rewarding for you and your dog. A well-trained dog is more confident and can more safely be allowed a greater amount of freedom than an untrained animal.64.Behavior problems of dogs are believed to___.A. get worse in modern societyB. occur only when they go wildC. be just part of their natureD. present a threat to society65.The primary purpose of obedience training is____.A.to enable the dog to regain its normal behaviorB.to make the dog aware of its owner’s authority(权威)C.to teach the dog to perform tricksD.to teach the dog to serve its owner66.Effective communication between a dog and its owner is___.A. an extreme measure in obedience trainingB. a good way to teach the dog new tricksC. the foundation for dogs to perform tasksD. essential(必不可少的) to solve the dog’s behavior problem67.Why do pet dogs love performing tricks for their masters?A. to show their willingness to obeyB. to show their affection for their mastersC. to avoid being punishedD.to win leadership of the dog packDThe young boy was sitting on the ground in the refugee(难民) camp playing with an empty tin. Other children were standing around watching him withenvious eyes.Envy? Of an empty tin?This tin was indeed no worthless piece of trash-----it was a splendid truck, complete with wheels and grille(铁棚) and floor. The vehicle even had remote control, a frayed piece of string from the ―engine‖ to the hand of the owner.The tin had lost all its original markings. But its first load had probably been sardine. Later the tin had been left with other rubbish behind the refugee camp clinic, and the boy had found it on one of his daily expeditions into the ―big world‖.For thousands of refugee children, a tin like this rates high on their list o f wants. It can be used for many purposes, as jewellery, as a toy, for drinking or asa medicine box.Many refugee children would consider it the happiest day of their lives if they received a handful of marbles(弹珠) as a present.They dream of gifts which children in developed countries take for granted.Maybe a book to read, or a pencil and an exercise book of their very own.Their imagination can create toys, but it can’t create books. Someone else must provide them. A more costly and valuable gift they can’t imagine.68.Other children envied the young boy because the boy .A.had a real truck toyB.got some sardines to eatC.received a handful of marblesD.had something to play with69. What is implied in the last paragraph of the text?A.The society should donate some toys for the refugee childrenB.The refugee children are more imaginative rather than creativeC.The society should offer the refugee children things for studyD.The refugee children are more creative rather than imaginative70. Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?A.An Enviable Toy PresentB. A Splendid TruckC.Sardine Tin------A Precious ToyD. A Poor Refugee CampEHave you ever been in a meeting while someone was making a speech and realized suddenly that your mind was a million miles away? Y ou probably felt sorry and made up your mind to pay attention and never have daydreaming again. Most of us, from earliest school days, have been told that daydreaming is a waste of time.―On the contrary,‖says L. Giambra, an expert in psychology, ―daydreaming is quite necessary. Without it, the mind couldn’t get done all the thinking it has to do during a normal day---. Y ou can’t possibly do all your thinking with a conscious mind. Instead, your unconscious mind is working out problems all the time. Daydreaming may be one way that the unconscious and conscious states of mind have silent dialogues.‖Early experts in psychology paid no attention to the importance of daydreams or even considered them harmful. At one time daydreaming was thought to be a cause of some mental illness. They did not have a better understanding of daydreams until the late 1980s. Eric Klinges, a professor, is the writer of the book Daydreaming. Klinges says, ―We know now that daydreaming is one of the main ways that we organize our lives, learn from our experiences, and plan for our futures---. Daydreams really are a window on the things we fear and the things we long for in life.‖Daydreams are usually very simple and direct, quite unlike sleep dreams, which may be hard to understand. It’s easier to gain a deep understanding of your life by paying close attention to your daydreams than by trying to examine your sleep dreams carefully. Daydreams help you recognize the difficult situations in your life and found out a possible way of dealing with them.Daydreams cannot be predicted: they move off in unexpected directions which may be creative and full of useful ideas. For many famous artists and scientists, daydreams were and are a main source of creative energy.71. The writer of this passage considers daydreams __________.A. hard to understandB. important and helpfulC. harmful and unimportantD. the same as sleep dreams72. The writer quoted L. Giambra and Eric Klinges to ________.A. point out the wrong ideas of early expertsB. list out two different ideasC. support his own ideasD. report the latest research on daydreams73. Which of the following is true?A. An unconscious mind can work all the problems out.B. Daydreaming can give artists and scientists ideas for creations.C. Professor Eric Klinges has a better idea than L. Gimabra.D. Early experts didn’t understand what daydreams were.74. Experts now believe that ________.A. daydreams cause some mental illnessB. daydreams are not easy to control and directC. the more daydreams you have, the more you’ll achieve.D. people fear as long for daydreams75. What is the difference between daydreams and sleep dreams?A. People have daydreams and sleep dreams at different times.B. Daydreams are the result of unconscious mind while sleep dreams are that ofconscious mindC. Daydreams are easy to understand.D. Daydreams are more helpful in solving problems.第二卷(共25分)第一节根据首字母提示,写出下列句中所缺单词(每小题1分,满分10分)1. Billy crystal is my favourite stand-up c___________.2.

More than 60 million of them are thrown away each day. Many of the plastic bottles end up in landfills or are burned with other waste products.A San Francisco start-up company called Rothy’s, however, turns this plastic waste into environmentally friendly shoes. Roth Martin is the company’s co-founder. He explains how they turn plastic into soft material for women’s feet. They take the plastic, clean it, and break it down into small pieces. Then they press them through a device that makes soft fibers. Those fibers are then combined together. This is done by a 3D machine. It is designed to reduce waste while making the shoes. The knitted stuff and the inner part of the shoe are then attached to the shoe’s outer part, called the sole (鞋底). This outer sole is also made from environmentally friendly material: responsibly sourced no-carbon rubber.Rothy’s shoes are sold online. They are flat shoes, with either a rounded or pointed toe. They come in different colors and designs. They cost either $ 125 or $ 145 per pair, depending on the design. After American actress Gwyneth Paltrow discovered them last year, the demand for the shoes grew. Martin says there is no shortage of material to fill that demand. “We’re not going to run out of water bottles any time soon. So we have a limitless supply of material, and I think thatis a good sign for our future.” When the environmentally friendly shoes wear out, customers can return them at no cost to a company that uses the recycled materials to make other products.For now, the shoes are only available to be shipped in the United States. However, the company says it will add international shipping in the near future.4.What does the underlined word knitted in the third paragraph mean?A.attached B.combinedC.fixed D.repaired5.Which of the following directly helped to increase the sales of Rothy’s shoes?A.The design and color.B.The reasonable price.C.The star power of Gwyneth Paltrow.D.The company’s advertisement.6.What is the purpose of the text?A.To introduce a new way of recycling plastic waste.B.To describe the process of making shoes.C.To advertise a new kind of shoes.D.To stress the importance of environmental protection.3.(8分)CThere was a gardener who looked after his garden with great care. To water his flowers,he used two buckets(水桶).One was a shiny and new bucket. The other was a very old and dilapidated one,which had seen many years of service,but was now past its best.Every morning,the gardener would fill up the two buckets. Then he would carry them along the path,one on each side,to the flowerbeds. The new bucket was very proud of itself. It could carry a full bucket of water without a single drop spilled. The old bucket felt very ashamed(惭愧的)because of its holes: before it reached the flowerbeds,much water had leaked(渗漏)along the path.Sometimes the new bucket would say,"See how capable I am! How good it is that the gardener has me water the flowers every day! I don’t know why he still uses you. What a waste of space you are!"And all that the old bucket could say was,"I know I am not very useful,but I can only do my best. I am happy that the gardener still finds a little bit of use in me ,at least.’’One day,the gardener heard that kind of conversation. After watering the flowers as usual,he said,"You both have done your work very well. Now I am going to carry you back,and I want you to look carefully along the path."Then the two buckets did so. All along the path, they noticed,on the side where the new bucket was carried,there was just bare earth;on the other side where the old bucket was carried,there was a joyous row of wild flowers,leading all the way to the garden.7.What was the old bucket ashamed of?A.Its past.B.Its aging.C.Its manner.D.Its leaking. 8.What does the underlined word "dilapidated" probably mean?A.Dirty.B.Dark.C.Worn out.D.Ordinary-looking.9.The new bucket made conversations with the old one mainly to________.A.take pity on the old one B.laugh at the old oneC.show off its good look D.praise the gardener's kindness10.Why was the old bucket still kept by the gardener?A.Because it was used to keep a balance.B.Because it stayed in its best condition.C.Because it had its own advantage.D.Because it was thought of as a treasure.二、阅读七选五(本题共计1小题,总分10分)4.(10分)二:七选五(每小题2分,满分10分)When the winter comes, millions of Americans realize they don’t feel as happy as usual, and may be depressed If you’re one of them, you may be suffering from “seasonal affective disorder” or SAD, whose symptoms include exhaustion, difficulty concentrating, sleep problems, body aches and pains, and a loss of interest in activities you normally enjoy. 11.Take extra Vitamin D.Researchers at the University of Georgia analyzed more than 100 articles that examined the link between Vitamin D and depression.

It was 8 hours later that day broke, and then the 44 of the rescue.It is almost 45 that he could stand the horror in the darkness for so long. Even more surprising was his 46 , “First of all I checked up on my physical47 and found myself not in fatal(致命的) danger.

How many people questioned don't play with their children?A. 1280.B. More than 333.C. 654.D. About 420.62.

A study of British people's lifestyles.C. The health service in the UK.D. The obesity problem in the UK.BOften, words come out of our mouths without us thinking about the effect they will have. But we should be aware that our words cause certain responses in others. For example, when returning an item to a store, we might use warm, friendly language during the exchange. And the clerk will probably respond in a similar manner. Or harsh(刻薄的)and critical language will most likely cause the clerk to be defensive.Words possess power because of their lasting effects. Many of us regret something we once said. And we remember unkind words said to us! Before speaking, we should always ask ourselves: Is it true? Is it loving? Is it needed? If what we want to say doesn’t pass this test, then it’s better left unsaid.Words possess power: both positive and negative. Those around us receive encouragement when we speak positively. We can offer hope, build self-esteem(自尊)and motivate others to do their best. Negative words destroy all those things. Will we use our words to hurt or to heal? The choice is ours.65. The main idea of the first paragraph is that .A. words have a lasting effect on usB. inspiring words give us confidenceC. negative words may let us downD. not sticks and stones but words will hurt us66. There is no sense for us to feel embarrassed when we talk to ourselves because .A. almost everybody has the habit of talking to themselvesB. talking to ourselves always gives us courageC. we can benefit from talking to ourselvesD. it does no harm to have “self-talk” when we are alone67. The underlined part in the third paragraph means that we should also timely .A. remind ourselvesB. praise ourselvesC. make ourselves relaxedD. give ourselves amusement68. The author would probably hold the view that .A. encouraging words are sure to lead to kind offersB. negative words may motivate us to make more progressC. people tend to remember friendly wordsD. it is better to think twice before talking to othersCFlying across the globe, whether on business or for leisure, is usually effortless——you just have to book your ticket, pack your bags and show up at the airport with your passport.

He walked in the streets of Brooklyn day after day with his favourite music blasting directly into his ears. By his early 20s, Michael had lost much of his upper-range hearing.The children’s Hearing Institute reports th at hearing loss among children and young adults is rising in the United States, and that one-third of the damage is caused by noise.Surrounded by NoiseWe live in a noisy world. Young and old alike are beset by sounds over which we may have little or no control: power mowers, leaf blowers, snow blowers, car and house alarms, sirens, motorcycles, Jet Skis, loudspeakers, even movie previews.We attend rock concerts, weddings, parties and sports events at which the music is so loud you can hardly hear the person sitting next to you. At home, televisions, stereos and computer games are often turned up so loud that listeners cannot hear a doorbell or a telephone. Many “modern” restaurants have chosen noisy enhancement instead of abatement (减轻). Any time you need to shout to be heard by someone near you, your hearing is most likely to be in a decibel (分贝) danger zone.As if environmental noise were not enough, now we surround children with noisy toys and personal listening devices that can permanently damage their hearing. Toys that meet the safety standards of the American Society for Testing and Materials can produce sound up to 138 decibels, as loud as a jet taking off. Yet workplace rules require hearing protection for those exposed tonoise above 85 decibels.Introduction A boy lost much of his hearing due to being 1. __________ to headphones. Problem More and more children have suffered hearing 2. .3. of the problem ·Environmental noise from:a) power mowers, leaf blowers, snow blowers, etc;b) the music at rock concerts, weddings, parties and sports events which4. __________ us hearing someone nearby;c) televisions, stereos and computer games 5. __________ than doorbellsor telephone calls;d) “modern” restaurants.·Noise from:toys and listening devices which cause 6.__________damage to hearing.7.to the problem ·Monitor the volume of toys.·8. __________ gifts making loud noise.·Limit children’s time spent in video arcades.·9. __________ taking children to loud action movies.六、单词拼写(11分)3.Mary got a t______________ job in summer holidays.

But if you keep your sense of humor ( 幽默感), you can always have a good laugh at the mistakes you make. Don't be unhappy if people seem to be laughing at your mistakes.

Her family was very poor. She decided to help her family even when she was very young, so she learned to use a gun, and began hunting (打猎) animals for food. She could shoot them without losing the important parts of the meat.Soon her shooting ability became well known. When she was sixteen, she was invited to a competition with a famous marksman (神枪手), Frank Butler. Annie surprised everyone by winning the competition. Later that year she and Frank married.In 1882, Annie Oakley and Frank Butler started putting on shows together. Frank Butler was the star of the show and she was his assistant. The famous Native American leader, Sitting Bull, thought so highly of her shooting ability that he called her “Little Sure Shot”. Later Annie Oakley became the star of the show and Frank Butler was her assistant. Posters (海报) for the show called her the “Champion Markswoman”.During World War One, Annie Oakley wanted to train a group of women volunteers for the army, but the United States did not accept it. She gave American soldiers shooting lessons, and traveled across the country visiting many training camps. She gave shooting performances and raised money to support the American soldiers.Annie Oakley died on November 3, 1926.Eighteen days later, Frank Butler died too.9.According to the passage, Annie Oakley ______.A.lived a hard life as a childB.often went hunting with her familyC.joined the army during World War OneD.trained women soldiers during the war10.Which of the following shows best that Annie was skilled at shooting?A.She put on shows as her husband’s assistant.B.She raised money to support the American soldiers.C.She offered to help the army by training women to be soldiers.D.She could shoot animals without harming the important parts of the meat.11.Which of the following is in the RIGHT order about Annie?a.She took part in a shooting competition.b.She gave shooting demonstrations and raised money.c.She hunted animals for food.d.She put on shows with Frank Butler.e.She was called the "Champion Markswoman".f.She married Frank Butler.A.a, c, d, f, b, e B.a, c, b, e, f, dC.c, a, d, f, e, b D.c, a, f, d, e, b12.Which of the following is the best title of the passage?A.Annie Oakley—Markswomen.B.Frank Butler—Champion Marksman.C.A Couple of Marksmen.D.Trained Woman Soldier.4.(6分)DIf English means endless new words, difficult grammar and sometimes strange pronunciation, you are wrong. Haven't you noticed that you have become smarter since you started to learn a language?According to a new study by a British university, learning a second language can lead to an increase in your brain power. Researchers found that learning other languages changes grey matter. This is the area of the brain which processes information. It is similar to the way that exercise builds muscles.The study also found the effect is greater, the younger people learn a second language.A team led by Dr Andrea Mechelli, from University College London, took a group of Britons who only spoke English. They were compared with a group of "early bilinguals" who had learnt asecond language before the age of five, as well as a number of later learners.Scans showed that grey matter density(密度) in the brain was greater in bilinguals than in people without a second language. But the longer a person waited before mastering a new language, the smaller the difference."Our findings suggest that the structure of the brain is changed by the experience of learning a second language," said the scientists.It means that the change itself increases the ability to learn.Professor Dylan Vaughan Jones of the University of Wales, has researched the link betweenbilingualism and maths skills."Having two languages gives you two windows on the world and makes the brain more flexible(灵活的), "he said."You are actually going beyond language and have a better understanding of different ideas."The findings were matched in a study of native Italian speakers who had learned English as a second language between the ages of two and 34.Reading, writing, and comprehension were all tested. The results showed that the younger they started to learn, the better."Studying a language means you get an entrance to another world," explained the scientists.13.The main subject talked about in this passage is ______ .A.science on learning a second languageB.man’s ability of learning a second languageC.1anguage can help brain powerD.1anguage learning and maths study14.In the second paragraph, the writer mentions “exercise” in order to ______ .A.say language is also a kind of physical laborB.prove that one needs more practice when he(she) is learning a languageC.to show the importance of using the language when you learn the languageD.make people believe language learning helps grey matter work well15.The underlined word “bilingual” probably means ______ .A.a researcher on language learningB.a person who is good at learning foreign languagesC.a person who can speak two languagesD.an active language learner二、阅读七选五(本题共计1小题,总分10分)5.(10分)第二节七选五(共5小题,每题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。

But new research suggests that too much sport for teenagers could negatively affect their well-being just as much as too little sport.The US Department of Health and Human Services suggests that young people aged between 6 and 17 carry out at least 60 minutes of physical activity a day, 7 hours a week. But researchers from Switzerland say their study suggests that 14 hours of physical activity a week is best for promoting good health in teenagers. However, they found that more than 14 hours appears to be detrimental to their health. To reach their findings, the researchers surveyed more than 1,245 teenagers aged between 16 and 20 from Switzerland.All participants were required to answer questions regarding height and weight, sports practice, sports injuries and well-being. Their well-being was assessed using the World Health Organization (WHO) Well-Being Index, which provides scores between 0 and 25. Of the participants, 50.4% were male with a mean age of 17.95 years. Almost 9% of these males were overweight. The overall well-being score for all participants was 17.The researchers divided sports participation into low (0-3.5 hours a week), average (3.6-10.5 hours), high (10.6-17.5 hours), and very high (more than 17.5 hours). The researchers found that participants in the low and very high activity groups were more than twice as likely to have well-being scores below 13, compared with participants who carried out around 14 hours of physical activity a week, but beyond 14 hours resulted in lower well-being scores.Commenting on their findings, the researchers say physical activity has been associated with positive emotional well-being, reduced sadness, anxiety and stress disorders, and improved self-esteem(自尊)in teenagers.The researchers note that their study stresses the importance for physicians caring for teenagers to check their level of sports practice and ask them about well-being. Teenagers probably need a supportive and closer follow-up of their health and well-being. The findings can informguideline groups who produce recommendations on sports practice for teenagers.25.From the first paragraph we can conclude that _________.A. teenagers negatively do sportsB. everything coin has two sidesC. active sports does good to healthD. lack of exercise influences health26. What does the underlined word “detrimental”in Paragraph 2 mean?A. Positive.B. Essential.C. Beneficial.D. Harmful.27. What did the researchers find out?A. Overdoing sport exercise is unhealthy for teenagers.B. Taking part in sport less is the cause of overweight.C. Very high activity groups tend to get higher well-being scores.D. Self-esteem is improved by unlimited sport activity.28. How do physicians assess teenagers’health from the study?A. The way to promote teenagers’physical health.B. The importance of checking their level of workout.C. The method of improving their emotional well-being.D. The necessity of giving suggestions on their workout.CEvery year thousands of tourists visit Pompeii, Italy. They see the sights that Pompeii is famous for---its stadium and theaters, its shops and restaurants. The tourists do not, however, see Pompeii’s people. They do not see them because Pompeii has no people. No one has lived in Pompeii for almost 2,000 years.Once, Pompeii was a busy city of 22,000 people. It lay at the foot of Mount Vesuvius, a grass-covered volcano. Mount Vesuvius had not erupted for centuries, so the people of Pompeii felt safe. But they were not.In August of AD 79, Mount Vesuvius erupted. The entire top of the mountain exploded, and a huge black cloud rose into the air. Soon stones and hot ash began to fall on Pompeii. When the eruption ended two days later, Pompeii was buried under 20 feet of stones and ashes. Almost all of its people were dead.For centuries, Pompeii lay buried under stone and ash. Then, in the year 1861, an Italian scientist named Ginseppe began to uncover Pompeii. Slowly, carefully, Ginseppe and his men dug. The city looked almost the same as it had looked in AD 79. There were streets and fountains, houses and shops. There was a stadium with 20,000 seats. Perhaps the most important of all there everyday objects, which tell us a great deal about the people ofPompeii who lived in Pompeii. Many glasses and jars had some dark blue color in the bottom, so we know that the people of Pompeii liked wine. They liked bread, too; metal bread pans were in every bakery. In one bakery there were 81 round, flat loaves of bread---a type of bread that is still sold in Italy today. Tiny boxes filled with a dark, shiny powder tell us that women liked to wear eye-makeup.Geinseppe has died, but his work continues. One-fourth has not been uncovered yet. Scientists are still digging, still making discoveries that draw tourists to Pompeii.29. Why do large number of people come to Pompeii each year?A. To visit the volcanoB. To shop and eat thereC. To watch sports and playsD. To see how Pompeiians lived30. Why had so many Pompeiians remained by volcanic Mount Vesuvius?A. The city nearby offered all kinds of fun.B. The area produced the finest wine in Italy.C. Few people expected the volcano to erupt again.D. The mountain was beautiful and covered with grass.31. Why did the city uncovered look almost the same as it had looked in AD 79?A. Because Ginseppe and his men dug it slowly and carefully.B. Because the city was buried alive and remained untouched.C. Because scientists successfully rebuilt the city with everyday objects.D. Because nobody had lived in the city ever since the volcano erupted.32. What do we know about the Pompeiians who live 3,000 years ago?A. They lived more or less the same as Italians now do.B. They liked women wearing all kinds of makeup.C. They enjoyed a lazy life with drinking and eating.D. They went back to Pompeii after the eruption in AD 79.DWhen I began my career as a jazz singer, I was told to start by covering the standards. But I didn’t follow th e path most new jazz artists take and produced original albums instead. I believe when you have something to say, you can’t really keep it down.Two of those original albums, Liquid Spirit and Take Me To The Alley, earned me a loyal fan base and two Grammys for best jazz album in 2020 and 2020 respectively.My idol is Nat King Cole, whose music has an important place in our household. I could smell the greens on the stove and the cornbread in the oven when I hear Nat’s music. I wanted to have his music come through my body and sing it as an expression of appreciation for him. My motherhad always been a fan of his music. This is something I did one day: Imagine her coming home from some protest movement or march and putting on, “Smile though your heart is aching, smile even though it’s breaking.” Imagine her putting on, “Pick yourself up, dust yourself off, start all over again.” I see the optimism and the strength in his music.Writing from a personal experience can bring about my feelings and power of feelings that can be instantly connected to the instrument and my voice. When I sing Mother’s Song, Insanity, even Holding On, I am expressing things I have a connection to.The song Holding On is a soul song. It connects to Nat King Cole with its optimism, the optimism about the power and the strength of love. I like the fact that I can have 17 to 25-year-olds all over the world jumping and dancing to this song. They’re still getting the message.33. How did the writer start his career as a musician?A. By copying his idol.B. By singing for awards.C. By covering the standards.D. By creating original music.34. What’s paragraph three mainly about?A. The writer’s childhood experience.B. Nat King Cole’s contribution to jazz.C. The writer’s mother in the protest movement.D. Nat King Cole’s influence on the writer and his family.35. What does the writer express in his songs?A. His personal emotions.B. His strong love for jazz.C. His attitude toward social injustice.D. His memories of the good old days.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,选项中有两项为多余选项。
