One week.BSome of t he world’s most famous musicians recently gathered in Paris and New Orleans to celebrate the first annual International Jazz Day. UNESCO( United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization) recently set April 30 as a day to raise awareness of jazz music, its significance, and its potential as a unifying(联合) voice across cultures.Despite the celebrations, though, in the U.S. the jazz audience continues to shrink and grow older, and the music has failed to connect with younger generations.It’s Jason Moran’s job to help change that. As the Kennedy Center’s ar tistic adviser for jazz, Moran hopes to widen the audience for jazz, make the music more accessible, and preserve its history and culture."Jazz seems l ike it’s not really a part of the American appetite,"Moran tells Nation al Public Radio’s reporter Neal Conan. "What I’m hoping to accomplish is that my generation and younger start to reconsider and understand that jazz is not black and write anymore. It’s actually color, and it’s actually digital."Moran says one of the problems with jazz today is that the entertainment aspect of the music has been lost. "The music can’t be pres ented today the way it was in 1908 or 1958. It has to continue to move, because the way the world works is not the same,"says Moran.Last year, Moran worked on a project that arrang ed Fats Waller’s music for a dance party, "just to kind of put it back in the mind that Waller is dance music as much as it is concert music,"says Moran. "For me, it’s the recontextualization. In music, where does the emotion(情感) lie? Are we, as humans, gaining any insight(感悟) on how talk about ourselves and how something as abstract as a Charlie Parker record gets us into a dialogue about our emotions and our thoughts? Sometimes we lose sight that the music has a wider context,"says Moran, "so I want to continue those dialogues. Those are the things I want to foster."4. Why did UNESCO set April 30 as International Jazz Day?A. To remember the birth of jazz.B. To protect cultural diversity.C. To encourage people to study music.D. To recognize the value of jazz.5. What does the underlined word "that"in paragraph 3 refer to?A. Jazz becoming more accessible.B. The production of jazz growing faster.C. Jazz being less popular with the young.D. The jazz audience becoming larger.6. What can we in fer about Moran’s opinion on jazz?A. It will disappear gradually.B. It remains black and white.C. It should keep up with the times.D. It changes every 50 years.7. Which of the following can be the best title for the text?A. Exploring the Future of JazzB. The Rise and Fall of JazzC. The Story of a Jazz MusicianD. Celebrating the Jazz DayCSalvador Dali (1904—1989) was one of the most popular of modern artists. The Pompidou Centre in Paris is showing its respect and admiration for the artist and his powerful personality with an exhibition bringing together over 200 paintings, sculptures, drawings and more. Among the works and masterworks on exhibition the visitor will find the best pieces, most importantly The Persistence of Memory. There is also L'Enigme sans Fin from 1938, works on paper, objects, and projects for stage and screen and selected parts from television programmes reflecting the artist's showman qualities.The visitor will enter the World of Dali through an egg and is met with the beginning, the world of birth. The exhibition follows a path of time and subject with the visitor exiting through the brain.The exhibition shows how Dali draws the viewer between two infinities(无限). “From the infinity small to the infinity large, contraction and expansion coming in and out of focus: amazing Flemish accuracy and the showy Baroque of old painting that he used in his museum-theatre in Figueras,” exp lains the Pompidou Centre.The fine selection of the major works was done in close collaboration(合作) with the Museo Nacional Reina Sofia in Madrid, Spain, and with contributions from other institutions like the Salvador Dali Museum in St. Petersburg, Florida.8. Which of the following best describes Dali according to Paragraph 1?A. Optimistic.B. Productive.C. Generous.D. Traditional.9. What is Dali's The Persistence of Memory considered to be?A. One of his masterworks.B. A successful screen adaptation.C. An artistic creation for the stage.D. One of the best TV programmes.10. How are the exhibits arranged at the World of Dali?A. By popularity.B. By importance.C. By size and shape.D. By time and subject.11. What does the word “contributions”in the last paragraph refer to?A. Artworks.B. Projects.C. Donations.D. Documents.D第3页/共7页French writer Frantz Fanon once said: "To speak a language is to take on a world, a culture."Since the world changes every day, so does our language.More than 300 new words and phrases have recently made it into the online Oxford Dictionary, and in one way or another they are all reflections of to day’s changing world.After a year that was politically unstabl e, it’s not hard to understand the fact that people’s political views are one of the main drives of our expanding vocabulary. One example is "clicktivism", a compound of "click"and "activism". It refers to "armchair activists"—people who support a political or social cause, but only show their support from behind a computer or smartphone. And "otherize"is a verb for "other"that means to alienate (使疏远)people who are different from ourselves —whether that be different skin color, religious belief or sexuality.Lifestyle is also changing our language. For example, "fitspiration"— a compound of fit and inspiration —refers to a person or thing that encourages one to exercise and stay fit and healthy.The phrase "climate refugee"—someone who is forced to leave their home due to climate change—reflects people’s co ncern for the environment.According to Stevenson, social media was the main source for the new expressions. "People feel much freer to coin their own words these days,"he said.But still, not all newly-invented words get the chance to make their way into a mainstream (主流的) dictionary. If you want to create your own hit words, Angus Stevenson, Oxford Dictionaries head of content development, suggests that you should not only make sure that they are expressive (有表现力的) and meaningful, but also have an attractive sound so that people will enjoy saying them out loud.12. What is the article mainly about?A. Some new word that got included into the online Oxford Dictionary.B. The application of new words and phrases.C. How a language mirrors the changing world.D . The impact of social media on our language.13. The underlined word "coin"in the second-to-last paragraph probably means .A. useB. recordC. changeD. create14. How is the article mainly written?A. By giving examples.B. By making comparisons.C. By following a timeline.D. By presenting research findings.15. According to Stevenson, to make the words you invent popular, they should .A. be easy to rememberB. have unique meaningsC. reflect the changing worldD. be meaningful, expressive and catchy 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。

Pruning involves the cutting away of overgrown and unwanted branches , and the inexperienced gardener can be encouraged by the thought that more damage results from doing it unnecessarily than from leaving the tree to grow in its own way .First , pruning may be done to make sure that trees have desired shape or size . The object may be to get a tree of the right height , and at the same time to help the growth of small side branches , which will thicken its appearance or give it a special shape . Secondly , pruning may be done to make the tree healthier . You may cut out diseased or dead wood , or branches that are rubbing against each other and thus cause wounds . The health of a tree may be encouraged by removing branches that are blocking up the center and so preventing the free movement of air .One result of pruning is that an open wound is left on the tree and this provides an easy entry for disease , but it is a wound that will heal (愈合) . Often there is a race between the healing and the disease as to whether the tree will live or die , so that there is a period when the tree is at risk . It should be the aim of every gardener to reduce that risk of death as far as possible . It is important to make the area , which has been pruned , smooth and clan , for healing will be slowed down by roughness . You should allow the cut surface to dry for a few hours and then paint it with one of the materials available from garden shops produced especially for this purpose . Pruning is usually done in winter , for then you can see the shape of the tree clearly without interference (妨碍) from the leaves and also it is very unlikely that the cuts you make will bleed . If this does happen , it is , of course , impossible to paint them properly .26.Why should running be done ?A.To make the tree grow taller . B.To improve the shape of the tree .C.to get rid of the small ranches . D.To make the small branches thicker . 27.Trees become unhealthy if the gardener .A.To help a wound to dry .B.To cover a rough surface .C.damages some of the small side branchesD.Allows too many branches to grow in the middle28.Why is a special material painted on the tree ?A.To help a wound to dry . B.to cover a rough surface .C.To make a wound smooth . D.To prevent disease entering a wound . 29.A good gardener prunes a tree .A.several times throughout the year B.as quickly as possibleC.occasionally when necessary D.regularly every winter30.What was the author’s purpose when writing this passage ?A.To discuss different methods of pruning .B.To introduce some common knowledge of pruning .C.To explain how trees develop disease .D.To give practical instruction for pruning a tree .第二节信息匹配(共5小题,每小题2分,满分10分)下面是一篇报纸上的文章,请将标有A—E的段落插入文章中标号为61—65的适合位置,使这篇文章意义完整,结构连贯。

Soon afterward, I received a Christmas present from them. Their note that came with it said that helping me had made their holidays meaningful.Years later, I drove to a meeting in a nearby town in the morning. In late afternoon I returned to my car and found that I'd left the lights on all day, and the battery(电池)was dead.

the world.”The artist traveled on.__18__,he met a young bride who told him that the most beautiful thing in the world is “Love”. “Love” __19__ the world go round.It __20__ poverty into riches,sweetens

catch the excitement of space exploration through paintings and drawings?From that question,the NASAAP(美国航空艺术计划)was born.It tries to catch the excitement of space exploration through art works.The artists of it are free to move into NASA equipment.For example,Franklin McMahon spent hours in a NASA medical exam room.He studied the equipment doctors used to examine astronauts just after a flight.McMahon's drawing “Tilt”shows doctors examining astronaut Ed White from the spaceship Gemini 4 on June 7,1965.The picture is extremely detailed and completely true.It provides as much information as a photograph.Some art works are not so serious.Artist Clayton Pond provided“Strange Encounters for the First Time”.The picture shows the spaceship Enterprise and the U.S.S. Enterprise meeting in space.The U.S.S. Enterprise is the spaceship from the television show “Star Trek”.It is funny.And there is a guess that Enterprise was named because of the imaginary one.Another surprising art work came from pop artist Andy Warhol.He produced“Moonwalk 1”in 1987.It shows astronaut Neil Armstrong walking on the moon.However,the artist added a lot of bright color to it.Neil Armstrong's white spacesuit is now hot pink.Part of his head cover is a sunny yellow.And the moon is blue.Some art works can produce strong sadness.Zigi Ben Haim's“Colombia Returning”imagines the last moment of spaceship Colombia and its crew(全体人员).In 2003,Columbia came apart as it re-entered Earth's atmosphere(大气层)at the end of a flight.All seven crew members were killed.The NASAAP is responsible for about three thousand works in all.Artists are given a small payment for each art work,which proves their words that they are attracted not by money but the experience being able to visit NASA equipment themselves.The NASAAP now asks about two artists a year to add to its collection.36.The aim of the NASAAP is to______.A.speed the development of spaceshipsB.attract more people to the spaceship showC.catch the excitement of space explorationD.let artists have a new topic to create art works37.Which of the following shows the truest information about space exploration?A.Tilt.B.Strange Encounters for the First Time.C.Moonwalk 1.D.Colombia Returning.38.The U.S.S. Enterprise is______.A.a spaceship made in AmericaB.a television show about spaceC.an imaginary spaceshipD.the first spaceship on earth39.Artists create art works for NASA mainly for______.A.the high payment from the art worksB.the chance of getting close to NASA equipmentC.the hope of showing their works to the worldD.the possibility of entering space in the spaceship40.We can know from the passage that______.A.only artists are allowed to visit the art collection of NASAB.McMahon describes doctors examining Ed White before a flightC.new art works will be added to the NASAAP every yearD.the NASAAP will sell out its art works at a high price every yearBMy computer is slow,which makes me beat my head against walls.So,what do you do in that case?There's no need to call a computer technician home to increase the speed of your computer;there's a lot you can do yourself.90 percent of the speed problems in a computer are a result of Windows registry(注册表)errors.Your Windows registry has a record of all the software in your PC.Well,with frequent downloading,you may allow much unwanted software in,thus,slowing your PC.However,you could increase the performance of your computer by bringing into use a registry cleaning program,which can be got from the Internet itself.This is one of the easiest methods to speed up your computer.One of the reasons for your computer to slow down may be a lot of viruses in your computer's brain.It's time to run an anti-virus check,and delete(删除)all viruses.Be sure to get the latest version(版本)of good anti-virus software.When you're in a habit of downloading something from the Internet,it's natural for you to store it in your computer.Now,think of your computer as a fat lady.The more you feed her,the more weight she puts on,and the more difficult it would be for her to walk.Delete all software programs,games,and entertainment media files(文档)that are just lying in your computer,and those you no more use.It will let your PC take some breaths,so that it can work with great speed.The next time your computer calls “Time Out!”,you know what to do before calling for technical support.However,if none of the above methods is effective,it's better to call a hardware engineer and let him solve the problem.41.What is the main reason for computers working slowly?A.No extra space.B.Too many viruses.C.Windows registry errors.D.Working for a long time.42.We can infer from Paragraph 3 that ______.A.every computer has virusesB.the anti-virus software is freeC.viruses cannot be deleted completelyD.people need to have an anti-virus check and remove viruses43.In Paragraph 4 the writer advises people______.A.not to eat too much foodB.not to use the computer too long every dayC.to store games and movies in the computerD.to remove all the unnecessary things from their computer44.What can we learn from the passage?A.Computers need no repair.B.Downloading will speed up your computer.C.We still need to call a hardware engineer sometimes.D.People should call for technical support as soon as their computer slows down.45.What's the passage mainly about?A.Methods to delete viruses.B.Ways to speed up your computer.C.How to repair your computer.Ⅳ.七选五阅读根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

Unit 1Art单元检测Ⅰ . 阅读理解AChinese Emoji (表情符号) Circles Globe“Funny”, a made -in-China emoji, seems to have recently moved beyond china. Now,it is more than an emoji, but a cultural expansion.Reaching Global MarketsA series of “funny ” emoji-based bolsters( 抱枕 )have attracted the attention of Japanese customers. Even if one bolster is more than three times as expensive asin China, it doesn’t kill their desires to buy it.

And every time Isee them, my mood just brightens suddenly. ” A Japanese netizen Kiro Kara said, “My dad will send it whenever he doesn’t agree with someone but he has to behavepolitely.”Addition to Domestic(国内的)Social MediaOne commonly seen online comment from Chinese netizens is,“Every time other people send me the emoji, I feel very uncomfortable and consider myself as a fool. ”Released in 2013, the “funny ” emoji is the updated version of its original one;“funny ”has a smiley mouth, two eyebrows and a naughty look. All these characteristics present users a sense of satire ( 嘲讽 ).In Everyday Use AbroadEarlier this year, one emoji from the Chinese basketball celebrity Yao Ming, whoplayed in USA, has been spread through the Middle East region.

As usual, I looked through the front pages of 1 women wearing designer clothes with ads promising it to be "Best of the Best". I read the ad. 2 , instead of offering advice on how to live well, the entire article 3 expensive treatments that slow the effects of getting older while fooling others into thinking you stay youngnaturally. What?Is that even 4 ?You may have already guessed — I seldom make up,5 buy a few creams for my skin, and wear only one or two pieces of 6 . Instead, given the choice I spend my money on travel, learning experiences, fun and a few causes I support. Fortunately, myhusband Thom not only likes me this way, 7 he's the same as well. 8 comes naturally to us because we both prefer 9 experiences.There was a TV show in the 1980's called Fernando's Hideaway. Regardless of whom the host Fernando was 10 in the show, he would always say, "You 11 marvelous( 棒极了 )!"And that was usually followed by, "As we all know, it's 12 to look marvelous than feel marvelous. "I knew everyone used to laugh at that showbecause what made it so ridiculous was how it pointed out the obvious 13 of grasping for outside appearances, 14 real feelings.Some women out there might be telling themselves, "I 15 possibly feel good ifI don't look good. "Really? Your life is 16 to feel good to you. We can control theway we feel by controlling our thoughts. Instead of 17 outside circumstances to bring about responses in us and make us happy or not, we can put our time, attention andresources on 18 can affect inside.

First, they care 3social concerns. Second, without exception, they explore a perfect balance between the international forms and Chinese expressions.Despite apparent highlights, much room 4 (leave) for improvement. Above all, commercial interests often outweigh 5( education ) purposes, causing many complaints about the 6(bearable) advertisements. In addition, some sharp remarks, 7they areeye-catching, may have misleading effects on the youth.In my opinion, such shows should shoulder more responsibility instead of merely8(entertain) the public. 9 is expected, these programs should be positive in their forms as well as functions.

Before I advertised for the position,I was approached by another manager Mr Jacobs,within the same division,and asked if I would consider a transfer(调任)from his staff.It appeared from his description of this employee that she was having a lot of problems performing her duties,and had difficulties on a personal basis with her supervisor(主管),and did not appear to respond to any attempts he,the manager,had made to settle the issues.After listening to his explanation,I really had severe doubts. What crossedmy mind was that he wanted me to take a performance problem off his hands. I told him I would think about it and would let him know the next day. After thinking more about this potential performance issue,I decided that I would speak with the employee privately before I made any decision.And what I found out during the interview made me think about it seriously. It turned out after speaking with her for over an hour that the performance issue appeared to result from working for a supervisor who never returned a good morning greeting,never gave a word of encouragement,and enjoyed finding fault. The end result was a totally upset employee who hated to see a new workday start,and who had considered quitting every day before she went to work.The look on her face,the trembling hands,and the annoyed manner in which she spoke led me to believe she was being truthful. I decided to accept her transfer to my unit. What started out as a shy and frightened employee turned out to be one of the most productive and loyal employees I ever had the privilege of working with.I was more than happy to give her what she needed-praise for work well done,respect as a person,and encouragement to do well in anything she dealt with.31.According to Mr. Jacobs,the employee ________.A.showed no respect for himB.was careless with her workC.didn't get along well with her colleaguesD.has a tense relationship with her supervisor32.Mr. Jacobs asked the author to consider a transfer from his staff probably because ________.A.he hoped to help the author outB.he wanted to give the employee a better chanceC.he wanted to free himself from a troubled situationD.the employee was the most suitable person for the position33.We can infer from the fourth paragraph that the supervisor ________.A.hated his own workB.was a respectable leaderC.behaved in a cold mannerD.was not good at expressing himself34.What would be the BEST title for the text?A.How to get on with your supervisorB.Are you questioning your ability?C.How to become a good managerD.Are you holding someone back?BIsaac Stern was more than a great violin player. He was one of the most honored musicians in the world,an international cultural ambassador. And he was also a teacher and activist. For more than sixty years,Mr.Stern performed excellent music. He performed in concerts around the world and on recordings.Isaac Stern was born in 1920 in Ukraine. His parents moved to California the following year. He began taking violin lessons after hearing a friend play the instrument. Later,he began studying music at the San Francisco Conservatory(旧金山音乐学院).He progressed quickly. When he was sixteen,he played with the San Francisco Symphony Orchestra. The next year,he performed in New York and was praised by music critics.Isaac Stern became one of the busiest musicians of his day. He played more than one hundred concerts a year. He also became one of the most recorded musicians in history. Isaac Stern also supported artistic development and freedom.In 1979,Isaac Stern visited China. He met with Chinese musicians and students. He taught them about classical Western music. His visit was made into a film. It is called From Mao to Mozart:Isaac Stern in China. It won an Academy Award for best documentary film.In 1984,Isaac Stern received the Kennedy Center Honors Award for his gifts to American culture through music. He expressed his thoughts about the part that music plays in life. He said music is an important part of a civilized life. He said people need music as much as they need bread.Isaac Stern died in 2001 at the age of eighty-one. He was a major influence on music in the twentieth century. He leaves the world richer with his many recordings.35.What did Isaac Stern think of music?A.Necessary. B.Difficult.C.Entertaining. D.Interesting.36.Which of the following statements is TRUE about Isaac Stern?A.He was born in California in the 1920s.B.He had visited many countries to advertise his recordings.C.He played less than one hundred concerts in all.D.His excellent music life lasted over 60 years.37.From the passage,we can infer that________.A.Isaac Stern influenced the culture in the 20th century a lotB.Isaac Stern was one of the most active musicians of his dayC.Isaac Stern was so busy that he couldn't spare time to educate the youth D.Isaac Stern led a rich life in his later life38.What will be the BEST title for the passage?A.Isaac Stern and the awards he gotB.Isaac Stern's life of pursuing musicC.Isaac Stern: one of the most honored musiciansD.Isaac Stern's visit to ChinaCMost children usually talk in class when they are bored or frustrated because a concept is too difficult. Schools have to recognize the need for children to talk.The educators in my school district recognize the need for children to talk. Our cu rricula embrace(contain)“active〞 participation. This means that during a lesson the students are expected to talk and interact in order to have the learning become a part of them. The children are expected to talk about what they are reading in their anthologies(选集),to answer questions together.There are certain times when children need to meditate and digest what they've learned without talking. At these times,the children begin to think about social activities.Children don't have much opportunity to write,and many educators believe thatchildren don't have the ability to express themselves when writing. The students in my class are allowed to converse but only in writing. If they are having a problem with a classmate,they write the problem out and give it to me. We then set up a conference and talk about the problem. We figure out ways that the problem can be solved. The writing is twofold(双重的).It helps the child calm down and not be reactive and teaches children the way to use words to express themselves.Talking is important,but just as important is knowing the appropriate times to talk. We do encourage our children to talk when they are small and they are used to expressing themselves.My theory,as I tell my students,is that he or she who talks the most,will probably grow up to be a teacher. They,then,will be able to talk all the time and NOT get in trouble.39.The educators in the author's school district recognize the need for children to talk by ________.A.talking more with students in classesB.their curriculaC.getting students to answer all the questions togetherD.students reading alone40.What's the author's opinion about writing in classes?A.Writing is a kind of conversation.B.Writing wastes too much class time.C.Writing can also keep students active.D.Writing is very harmful to students' talking in class.41.From the passage we can infer ________.A.most children want to talk in classB.students who talk the most will become teachersC.some educators think writing can't express themselves clearlyD.encouraging students to express themselves by talking at every time is beneficial42.What's the best title of the passage?A.Talking is ImportantB.Talking and WritingC.Understanding Why Children Talk in ClassD.Children Talking in Class-Right or Wrong?DTony Burke,Australia's environment minister,says he won't decide until next year whether the koala should be protected as an endangered species. He was expected to make his decision by the end of October. But that decision has been put off. Burke said he needed more time to go over the latest information about the koala's population.In September,an Australian Senate committee reported that there was no question the koala's population is on the decrease.“But they may not yet be eligible(符合条件的)for listing as a threatened species,〞said Senator Doug Cameron.“To have such a significant Australian icon(偶像)included on the threatened species list would be a national shame.〞The koala is found only in the eucalyptus(桉树)forests of Australia. And its population is reported to have fallen sharply for many reasons,including the cutting down of forests to make way for human beings' development,their own illness,climate change and killings by other animals such as wild dogs. And every year many koalas are hit by cars as they are trying to cross the busy roads.Putting off the decision on protection for the koala “is really bad news,〞said Debbie Pointing,the president of the Koala Action Group.“We've worked tirelessly for many years to gather data on the populations,〞Pointing said.“That data should be enough to make a decision.〞However,Burke pointed out that the Australian government had spent at least $6.3 million on koala conservation efforts since 1996.Senators listed efforts that are already underway in Queensland-the construction of special koala bridges as well as fences along roads,to keep the animals out of harm's way.Some people say that is not enough.“What we're doing at the moment is likely to drive this species to extinction,〞Queensland University zoologist Bill Ellis said.“Koalas are an iconic Australian animal,〞Burke told Australians.“They holda special place in the hearts of Australians.〞But it is a fact that if more isn't done to protect the koala,they might soon hold a place only in Australians' memories.43.Tony Burke put off announcing the koala as an endangered species because ________.A.he needed more time to examine the latest informationB.he doubted whether koalas' number is decreasingC.he was thinking about ways to protect koalasD.he had more important issues to deal with44.What is Paragraph 3 mainly about?A.The habitat of the koala.B.Australia's traffic problems.C.The importance of koalas for Australians.D.Reasons for the decrease of the koala population.45.According to the text,Debbie Pointing thinks that ________.A.the construction of special koala bridges is of little useB.koalas are becoming less important in Australians'heartsC.the government is to blame for the decreasing koala populationD.the government should announce the koala as an endangered species46.What is the main idea of the text?A.Australia puts off the decision on whether the koala is endangered.B.Australia is taking special measures to protect koalas.C.The population of koalas is reducing rapidly.D.Australians are concerned about koalas.EThe UK has a well respected higher education system and some of the top universities and research institutions in the world. But to those who are new to it all,sometimes it can be confusing.October is usually the busiest month in the college calendar. Universities have something called Freshers' Week for their newcomers. It's a great opportunity tomake new friends,join lots of clubs and settle into university life.However,having just left the comfort of home and all your friends behind,the prospect of meeting lots of strangers in big halls can be nerve wracking(令人焦虑不安的).Where do you start?Who should you make friends with?Which clubs should you join?Luckily,there will be thousands of others in the same boat as you are worrying about starting their university social life on the right foot. So just take it all in slowly. Don't rush into anything that you'll regret for the next three years.Here are some top advice from past students on how to survive Freshers' Week:Learn rules. Make sure you know British social etiquette(礼节).Have a few wine glasses and snacks handy for your housemates and friends.Be kind. Sometimes cups of tea or even slices of toast can give you a head start in making friends.Be sociable. The more active you are,the more likely you'll be to meet new people than if you're someone who never leaves his room.Bring a doorstop. Keep your door open when you're in and that sends positive messages to your neighbors that you're friendly. So with a bit of clever planning and effort,Freshers' Week can give you a great start to your university life and soon you'll be passing on your experience to next year's new recruits.47.Which of the following statements is FALSE according to the passage?A.October is generally the busiest month for universities.B.It's a good idea to put a doorstop in your door.C.A bit of planning can make Freshers' Week easier.D.The first week of your every year at university is called Freshers' Week.48.The underlined word “recruits〞 in the last paragraph refers to________.A.courses B.FreshersC.neighbors D.challenges49.We can infer from the 4th paragraph that________.A.the newcomers usually miss the days living at homeB.most of the students in the UK spend three years in universitiesC.many freshers are worried about how to fit university lifeD.all the new students will make new friends and join certain clubs50.The main purpose of the passage is to________.A.tell the newcomers how to make a new start in universitiesB.introduce something about higher education system of the UKC.discuss something about the Freshers' Week in the UKD.advise the freshmen how to behave well in the beginningⅣ.完成句子(共10小题;每一小题2分,总分为20分)51.We didn't ____________ the car until a few days after the auction.(possession)拍卖几天后我们才领到汽车。

Unit 1Art单元检测Ⅰ.阅读理解AChinese Emoji (表情符号) Circles Globe“Funny”, a made-in-China emoji, seems to have recently moved beyond china. Now, it is more than an emoji, but a cultural expansion.Reaching Global MarketsA series of “funny” emoji-based bolsters(抱枕)have attracted the attention of Japanese customers. Even if one bolster is more than three times as expensive as in China, it doesn’t kill their desires to buy it. One Japanese customer Miki said, “They are just so cute and I bought three bolsters at one time. And every time I see them, my mood just brightens suddenly.” A Japanese netizen Kiro Kara said, “My dad will send it whenever he doesn’t agree with someone but he has to behave politely.”Addition to Domestic(国内的)Social MediaOne commonly seen online comment from Chinese netizens is, “Every time other people send me the emoji, I feel very uncomfortable and consider myself as a fool.”Released in 2013, the “funny” emoji is the updated version of its original one; “funny” has a smiley mouth, two eyebrows and a naughty look. All these characteristics present users a sense of satire (讽刺).In Everyday Use AbroadEarlier this year, one emoji from the Chinese basketball celebrity Yao Ming, who played in USA, has been spread through the Middle East region. In a city in Egypt, Yao’s smiling emoji has appeared in local traffic signs to remind people the road ahead is one-way.As a new online language, emojis have been helping people express their views in a more vivid and precise way. Also, it can help foreigners learn about Chinese culture.But how to use “the fifth innovation in China” without hurting others and turn them into commercial advantages still need answers.1. Why do the bolsters attract Miki’s attention?A.Because they are cheap.B.Because they are made in China.C.Because they help lift the spirits.D.Because they help behave politely.2. What can we know according to the text?A.“Funny” emoji was created by Yao Ming.B.“Funny” emoji-based bolsters sell better in China than in Japan.C.“Funny” emoji helps foreigners understand Chinese culture.D.“Funny” emoji is regarded as friendliness by most Chinese netizens.3. What’s the author’s attitude towards the emoji mentioned in this text?A.Critical.B.Doubtful.C.Opposed.D.Objective.BLosing weight has become a major concern for so many people. People try different weight loss methods all the time, some of which will never work, while others provide just a temporary solution.It is important to note that there are some green ways to lose weight that are not only healthy and effective but also good for the environment. Let us look at some of these green ways to lose weight.Growing your own vegetables is a good way to ensure that you are eating healthy foods. The process is even better if you can use organic manure(肥料). Planting your own vegetables is not only a good way to go green; it also provides you with plenty of physical exercise. Preparing a garden, including planting and taking care of the vegetables, is a great way to achieve a healthy weight.If you usually eat meat on a daily basis, you should consider replacing that meat with more vegetables. If you have no idea what vegetarian diets are like, you can do some research on the Internet, and you can also get information from vegetarian magazines such as Vegetarian Times Magazine. By reducing your intake of meat, you will be able to reduce your intake of fats, and hence, it will be easier for you to get rid of some weight.。

It has to continue to move, because the way the world works is not the same,"says Moran.Last year, Moran worked on a project that arranged Fats Waller’s music for a dance party, "just to kind of put it back in the mind that Waller is dance music as much as it is concert music,"says Moran. "For me, it’s the recontextualization. In music, where does the emotion(情感) lie? Are we, as humans, gaining any insight(感悟) on how talk about ourselves and how something as abstract as a Charlie Parker record gets us into a dialogue about our emotions and our thoughts? Sometimes we lose sight that the music has a wider context,"says Moran, "so I want to continue those dialogues. Those are the things I want to foster."4. Why did UNESCO set April 30 as International Jazz Day?A. To remember the birth of jazz.B. To protect cultural diversity.C. To encourage people to study music.D. To recognize the value of jazz.5. What does the underlined word "that"in paragraph 3 refer to?A. Jazz becoming more accessible.B. The production of jazz growing faster.C. Jazz being less popular with the young.D. The jazz audience becoming larger.6. What can we infer about Moran’s opinion on jazz?A. It will disappear gradually.B. It remains black and white.C. It should keep up with the times.D. It changes every 50 years.7. Which of the following can be the best title for the text?A. Exploring the Future of JazzB. The Rise and Fall of JazzC. The Story of a Jazz MusicianD. Celebrating the Jazz DayCS alvador Dali (1904—1989) was one of the most popular of modern artists. The Pompidou Centre in Paris is showing its respect and admiration for the artist and his powerful personality with an exhibition bringing together over 200 paintings, sculptures, drawings and more. Among the works and masterworks on exhibition the visitor will find the best pieces, most importantly The Persistence of Memory. There is also L'Enigme sans Fin from 1938, works on paper, objects, and projects for stage and screen and selected parts from television programmes reflecting the artist's showman qualities.The visitor will enter the World of Dali through an egg and is met with the beginning, the world of birth. The exhibition follows a path of time and subject with the visitor exiting through the brain.The exhibition shows how Dali draws the viewer between two infinities(有限). 〝From the infinity small to the infinity large, contraction and expansion coming in and out of focus: amazing Flemish accuracy and the showy Baroque of old painting that he used in his museum-theatre in Figueras,〞explains the Pompidou Centre.The fine selection of the major works was done in close collaboration(协作) with the Museo Nacional Reina Sofia in Madrid, Spain, and with contributions from other institutions like the Salvador Dali Museum in St. Petersburg, Florida.8. Which of the following best describes Dali according to Paragraph 1?A. Optimistic.B. Productive.C. Generous.D. Traditional.9. What is Dali's The Persistence of Memory considered to be?A. One of his masterworks.B. A successful screen adaptation.C. An artistic creation for the stage.D. One of the best TV programmes.10. How are the exhibits arranged at the World of Dali?A. By popularity.B. By importance.C. By size and shape.D. By time and subject.11. What does the word 〝contributions〞in the last paragraph refer to?A. Artworks.B. Projects.C. Donations.D. Documents.DFrench writer Frantz Fanon once said: "To speak a language is to take on a world, a culture."Since the world changes every day, so does our language.More than 300 new words and phrases have recently made it into the online Oxford Dictionary, and in one way or another they are all reflections of today’s changing world.After a year that was politically unstable, it’s not hard to understand the fact that people’s political views are one of the main drives of our expanding vocabulary. One example is "clicktivism", a compound of "click"and "activism". It refers to "armchair activists"—people who support a political or social cause, but only show their support from behind a computer or smartphone. And "otherize"is a verb for "other"that means to alienate (使疏远)people who are different from ourselves —whether that be different skin color, religious belief or sexuality.Lifestyle is also changing our language. For example, "fitspiration"—a compound of fit and inspiration —refers to a person or thing that encourages one to exercise and stay fit and healthy.The phrase "climate refugee"—someone who is forced to leave their home due to climate change—reflects people’s concern for the environment.According to Stevenson, social media was the main source for the new expressions. "People feel much freer to coin their own words these days,"he said.But still, not all newly-invented words get the chance to make their way into a mainstream (主流的) dictionary. If you want to create your own hit words, Angus Stevenson, Oxford Dictionaries head of content development, suggests that you should not only make sure that they are expressive (有表现力的) and meaningful, but also have an attractive sound so that people will enjoy saying them out loud.12. What is the article mainly about?A. Some new word that got included into the online Oxford Dictionary.B. The application of new words and phrases.C. How a language mirrors the changing world.D . The impact of social media on our language.13. The underlined word "coin"in the second-to-last paragraph probably means .A. useB. recordC. changeD. create14. How is the article mainly written?A. By giving examples.B. By making comparisons.C. By following a timeline.D. By presenting research findings.15. According to Stevenson, to make the words you invent popular, they should .A. be easy to rememberB. have unique meaningsC. reflect the changing worldD. be meaningful, expressive and catchy第二节(共5小题;每题2分,总分值10分)依据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最正确选项。

Unit 1 ArtⅠ.阅读理解〔共两小节,第一节15小题,每一小题2分,总分为30分〕AThe majority of the world’s most powerful and influential positions remain in men's hands. But the imbalance is gradually tilting -- and it shows. In 2015, some of the biggest news and successes resulted from the actions of women. Here are the new faces who inspired, guided or moved the world.Loretta LynchTraditionally, the top U.S. law-enforcement official is not well-known outside of the United States, but Attorney General Loretta Lynch not only made headlines around the world, she also brought a particular kind of change that billions of people had hoped for but thought was out of reach.Lynch surprised the world by taking on the entrenched(根深蒂固的), corrupt officials of FIFA, the governing body of the world's most popular sport, soccer. She had the bravery to do what nobody else had dared. FIFA officials, she declared, had engaged in "rampant(猛烈的), systematic and deep-rooted" corruption, and it was time to "bring wrongdoers to justice."Ellen Johnson SirleafWhen Ebola took on alarming proportions in West Africa, it was tough for Liberia, one of the centers of the crisis.Ellen Johnson Sirleaf, the leader of Liberia, pleaded for international help. One reason the world responded is because the unbeatable President has international moral status. She played a key role in guiding her country after cruel civil wars and received the Nobel Peace Prize for her effort.Johnson Sirleaf not only helped bring an end to the epidemic, she did something just as remarkable: She revealed her emotions and admitted her faults. When it wasall over she said she had been afraid, and admitted she had made big mistakes as a result of her fear. Then she showed gratitude. Instead of collecting honors, she thanked all the people and countries who made victory against Ebola possible.Aung San Suu KyiThe Burmese leader, also a Nobel Peace Prize winner, put the skeptics and the cynics(愤世嫉俗) to shame. To those who said nonviolent resistance could not defeat a vicious armed opponent, she seemed to say "just watch."Following the footsteps of Mahatma Gandhi and Martin Luther King , she endured a long struggle against the pitiless military rulers of Myanmar. She gained international support for economic sanctions(制裁) that helped persuade the generals to loosen their control, leading to elections in 2015 and an overwhelming victory for her National League for Democracy. She remains a global icon of peaceful resistance.Tu YouyouIt's a tough challenge to find a single human being who may be responsible for saving as many lives. The Chinese pharmacologist Tu Youyou, one of three winners of this year's Nobel Prize for Medicine, took a different route in attacking one of the world's biggest killers, malaria.Research into ancient Chinese texts led her to discover the compounds that help prevent a disease that still kills about half a million people every year, transmitted by mosquitoes in water-logged jungles. The discovery has resulted in medication that has saved millions of lives.1. The main purpose of the passage is to ______.A. tell us that men’s status in the world was becoming less important in 2015B. show readers the importance of several great women who were powerful in 2015C. analyze the reasons why some great women became the 2015 biggest newsD. introduce several great women and their achievements in 20152. Among the women mentioned above, who did not win the Nobel Prize?A. Aung San Suu Kyi.B. Ellen Johnson SirleafC. Loretta Lynch.D. Tu Youyou3. Ellen Johnson Sirleaf was regarded as remarkable for the following EXCEPT_____.A. that she played a key role to end Ebola, but she didn’t owe everything to herself alone..B. that she guided her country to win the civil wars and received the Nobel Prize..C. that she bravely acknowledged her fear and her mistakes.D. that she expressed her gratitude to those who fought Ebola together4. It can be inferred from the passage that _______.A. some great women’s successes are shaking the men’s control of th e world.B. thanks to Tu Youyou’s discovery, the patients attacked by malaria will undoubtedly be saved.C. Aung San Suu Kyi won the victory with the guidance of Gandhi and Martin Luther King.D. many people have dealt with the corruption of FIFA, but failed.BA decade ago, secondary and higher education was prized above all else. Apprenticeships (学徒工作) were viewed as an option for dropouts rather than a daring career choice. And the young men and women who didn’t fit into the school system, preferring to create start-ups and focus on making a living in the business world, were dismissed as wheeler-dealers. (投机者)Now there’re no birds of this year in last year’s nests. Young people are being encouraged to think carefully about whether academia is right for them--- this trend has been fuelled by rising university fees and a global shortage of many skills that were passed over in schools in recent years, ranging from web development to sales. Young people are required to stay in some kind of education or training untilthey are 18, but this learning may now take many forms. The Government runs its own platform to help interested youths find an apprenticeship that suits their skills and ambitions.Tom Hartley, who runs a high-end performance and classic car business based in Derbyshire, founded his first company at just 12 years old. “I had no school education,〞he says. “Business was how I learned everything. I call it the Hartley University of Life.〞His business, 43 years on, turns over £ 200m, and sells cars to high-net-worth individuals across the globe, from Hollywood celebrities to foreign royalty. Many years ago, Hartley was asked to explain why he had chosen to be self-educated and why he had supported his son Carl’s decision to leave schoo l and join the family business instead.“I got a lot of criticism at the time,〞he says. “I tried to explain that you can’t teach gut feelings(直觉) on a blackboard and that school is fine if you want to be a doctor or fly a rocket to the moon but otherwi se it’s all about experience in business.〞5. What does the underlined sentence in Paragraph 2 indicate?A. The situation above has changed.B. Education is no more important nowadays.C. Things change for the worse for dropouts.D.

All pupils should also see at least one performance of a Shak espeare’s play. The recommendations have been made in a Royal Shakespeare company(RSC) document, contemplating why school children show less and less interest in drama.The RSC has warned that children are being turned off Shakespeare because of the way they are taught in schools and a lack of opportunities to see plays performed live. Jacqui O’Hanlon, the head of education at the RSC, said, “We’ve seen teachers working extremely well in class. There’s been a lot of success with 4-year-olds. With primary sc hool kids, there isn’t a fear factor because they’ve never heard of him. What we do with children from the age of 8 is to unfold the story piece by piece and show them the key moments of drama.〞Shakespeare is compulsory in secondary school. Pupils between the ages of 11 and 14 must study at least one play.An educator who is in charge of England’s exams said a review of the primary school courses would be a chance to decide if it should be taught to younger pupils. And as part of the RSC task, more courses will be developed to help teachers leadlessons on plays.Tamsin Greig, the actress, who won an Olivier Award for her performance in Shakespeare’s Much Ado About Nothing last year, said, “Give children the chance to play with words, ideas and stories, and boredom will have no place.〞9.

Teach Children to Read from the Age of Four.DSitting on the peaceful coast of Galapagos Islands, Ecuador, watching the sun move quietly into the sea, you shouldn't forget that Charles Darwin (1809-1882) arrived here in 1835. He stayed on the islands for five weeks, observing various animals. This finally inspired his famous work, On the Origin of Species. You can certainly follow Darwin's footsteps and enjoy a trip from four to seven days to the islands.The islands are certainly a paradise for wildlife, as there are no natural killers on the islands and the number of boats and visitors is under government control. Though you cannot walk freely as Darwin did about 200 years ago, each day is as impressive as it could be.The most well-known animal of the Galapagos is the giant tortoise (巨型海龟), which can be seen moving slowly around the highlands of Sanra Cruz, the second largest island in the archipelago (群岛). Some of these creatures are so old that they might have been seen in their youth by Darwin himself.Despite strict control over activities and timing, your stay on the Galapagos will be remembered as a chain of incomparable pictures: diving with sea lions that swim and play within inches of you; feeling small sharks touch your feet as you swim; and, most magically, seeing a whale and her baby surface with a great breath of air. Travelling between the islands and observing the wildlife that so inspired Darwin, you will feel as though you are getting a special view of an untouched world. At night you will sleep on board the ship, leaving the wildlife in complete occupation of the islands, which are as undisturbed now as they have been since the beginning of time.13. What do we know about Darwin's visit to the islands?A. He studied different creatures on the islandsB. He completed his famous book on the islandsC. He was touched by the geography of the islandsD. He was attracted by well-known animals of the islands14. Which of the following plays a role in making the islands "a paradise for wildlife"?A. Animals on the islands feed on grass.B. Local government forbids killing wildlife.C. People cannot visit the islands as they wish.D. Tourists are not allowed to touch the animals.15. Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?A. A Unique Attraction for Wildlife LoversB. Calapagos as a Paradise for AdventuresC. Charles Darwin as a Symbol of GalapagosD.

So today I want to give you some wisdom about how to make the most of the time you spend in the kitchen. Here are three tips for great cooking on a tight schedule:1. Think ahead. The moments when I think cooking is a pain are when I’m already hungry and there is nothing ready to eat. So think ahead of the coming week. When will you have time to cook? Do you have the right materials ready? 172. Make your time worth it. When you do find time to cook a meal, make the most of it and save yourself time later on. Are you making one loaf of bread? 18 it takes around the same amount of time to make more of something. So save yourself the effort for a future meal.3. 19 This may surprise you, but one of the best tools for making cooking worth your time is experimentation. It gives you the chance to hit upon new ideas and recipes that can work well with your appetite and schedule. The more you learn and the more you try, the more ability you have to take control of your food and your schedule.Hopefully that gives you a good start. 20 and don’t let a busy schedule discourage you from making some great changes in the way you eat and live!A. Try new things.B. Ability is easily improved.C. Make three or four instead.D. Understand your food better.E. Cooking is a burden for many people.F. Let cooking and living simply be a joy rather than a burden.G. A little time planning ahead can save a lot of work later on.Ⅱ. 完型填空〔每一小题1.5分,共30分〕A Welcome GiftDario and his mother loved their new apartment. The living room was large enough for their piano.
