21．（6分）It is good to get in touch with your inner child from time to time，and obviously some people are willing to pay big money for the chance to do so in a proper environment．A Brooklyn-based adult preschool is charging customers between $333 and $999 for the chance to act like a kid again．
At Preschool Mastermind in New York adults get to participate in show—and—tell，arts—and—crafts such as finger paint，games like musical chairs and even take naps．The month-long course also has class picture day where the adults are expected to have a field trip and a parent day．
30-year-old Michelle Joni Lapidos，the brain behind the adult preschool，studied childhood education and has always wanted to be a preschool teacher．She’s always on the lookout for new ways to get people in touch with the freedom of childhood．A friend encouraged her to start the mastermind course instead．
According to Candice，her blogger friend，Preschool Mastermind gives adults a chance to relearn and master the things that they failed to understand as children．“I realized all the significances of what we learn in preschool，”said founder Michelle Joni，“People come here and get in touch with their inner child．It’s magical．We are bringing ourselves back to another place，another time with ourselves when we are more believing in ourselves，more confident and ready to take on the world.”
“One person’s here because they want to learn not to be so serious．”Michelle said．“Another's here to learn to be more confident.” She explained that most of the classes were planned．However，Joni added that while the planned activities were fun，it was often the spontaneous(自发的)moments that attracted students．“It’s the things you don’t plan for，the sharing between friends and learning from each other.’’

22．（8分）The year 2114 will be an eventful one for art. In May of that year in Berlin, the philosopher-artist Jonathon Keats’ “century cameras” – cameras with a 100-year-long exposure (曝光）time – will be brought back from hiding places around the city to have their results developed and exhibited. Six months after that, the Future Library in Oslo, Norway, will open its doors for the first time, presenting 100 books printed on the wood of trees planted in the distant past of 2014.
As Katie Paterson, the creator of the Future Library, puts it: “Future Library is a n artwork for future generations.” These projects, more than a century in the making, are part of a new wave of “slow art” intended to push viewers and participants to think beyond their own lifetimes. They aim to challenge today’s short-term thinking and the brief attention spans of modern consumers, forcing people into considering works more deliberately. In their way, too, they are fighting against modern culture – not just regarding money, but also the way in which artistic worth is measured by attention.
In a similar fashion, every April on Slow Art Day, visitors are encouraged to stare at five works of art for 10 minutes at a time – a tough task for the average museum visitor, who typically spends less than 30 seconds on each piece of art.
Like the Future Library, the century cameras are very much a project for cities, since it’s in cities that time runs fastest and the pace of life is fastest. “Since I started living in a city, I’ve somehow been quite disconnected,” Anne Beate Hovind, the Future Library project manager, who described how working on the library drew her back to
the pace of life she knew when she was growing up on a farm in her youth, told The Atlantic magazine.
1、According to the first paragraph, what will NOT happen in 2114 ?
A．A camera which was produced 100 years ago will be exhibited.
B．The Future Library will be open to the public for the first time.
C．Photos with a 100-year exposure time will be developed and exhibited.
D．Books printed on the wood of trees planted in 2014 will be displayed.
2、What can we learn about today’s people’s attitude toward works of art?
A．They consider works deliberately.
B．They spend little time on works.
C．They spend much money on works.
D．They stare at works for 10 minutes at a time.
3、What is the purpose of the wave of slow art?
A．To advocate creating works of art slowly.
B．To protect works of art from being damaged.
C．To promote works of art for modern culture.
D．To encourage people to consider works more deliberately.
4、How would Anne Beate Hovind feel about the city life?
A．It’s discouraging.
B．It’s awful.
C．It’s developed.
D．It’s busy.
23．（8分）One day the employees of a large company in St Louis, Missouri returned from their lunch break and were greeted with a sign on the front door. The sign said, “Yesterday the person who has been hindering (阻碍) your growth in this company passed away. We invite you to join the funeral in the room that has been prepared in the gym.”
At first everyone was sad to hear that one of their colleagues had died, but after a while they started getting curious about who this person might be.
The excitement grew as the employees arrived at the gym to pay their last respects. Everyone wondered, “Who is this person that was hindering my progress? Well, at least he’s no longer here.”
One by one the employees got closer to the coffin (棺材) and when they looked inside it, they became speechless. They stood there, shocked and in silence, as if someone had touched the deepest part of their souls.
There was a mirror inside the coffin. Everyone who looked inside it could see himself. There was also a sign next to the mirror that said, “There is only one person who can set limits to your growth: it is YOU.”
You are the only person who can change your life. You are the only person who can influence your happiness and your success. You are the only person who can help yourself.
Your life does not change when your family changes, when your friends change, when your boss changes, and when your company changes.
Your life changes when you change, when you go beyond your limiting beliefs, when you realize that you are the only one responsible for your life.
1、The writer’s purpose in writing the article is to tell us that .
A．the harder we work, the more successful we will become
B．our work and life are closely connected with others
C．changing our lives is down to ourselves
D．we will have a better future if people do not hinder our development
2、People were speechless when they looked inside the coffin because . A．there was nothing but a mirror inside
B．they could see their own souls inside
C．their closest colleague lay inside
D．what was inside told a great truth
3、Who probably wrote the sign on the front door?
A．The company boss.
B．A worker who liked to make fun of others.
C．The director in charge of production.
D．A worker who wanted to teach others a lesson.
4、What can we infer from the passage?
A．The employees were happy to hear the death of a competitor.
B．The lesson the employees learned would influence them greatly.
C．The employees’ lives depended on the attitude of their boss.
D．The employees got angry after the funeral.
24．（8分）5 Secrets of Web Travel Sites
Booking a trip on an online travel site is convenient, but comes with its own set of problems.
1. They know who’s on a Mac and who’s on a PC and who’s going
to spend more.
Last year, US travel research company Orbitz tracked people’s online activities to test out whether Mac users spend more on travel than PC users. On average, Mac users lay out US$20-30 more per night on hotels and go for more stars, according to the Wall Street Journal. As a result, online travel sites show these users more expensive travel options first. To avoid inadvertently paying more, sort results by price.
2. Their software doesn’t always hook up to the hotel’s system.
A guaranteed reservation is almost impossible to come by anywhere – but the risk of your flight or hotel being overbooked increases with third-party providers. The middle-man’s software isn’t immune to system errors, so always call the hotel or airline to make sure your booking was processed.
3. Don’t be fooled by packages: Often, they’re low-end items grouped together.
Ever notice how travel sites recommend a hotel, a rental car, and tour package all in one click? These deals usually feature travel that no one wants, like flights with multiple layovers. Check the fine print.
4. You could miss out on loyalty points.
Third-party providers can get between you and frequent flyer miles or points. Many hotel loyalty programmes don’t recognize external si tes, others award only minimum points and exclude special offers, like double points on hotel stays.
5. Once your trip is purchased, you’re on your own.
An online travel agency can’t provide assistance the same way an agent can if
a flight is cancelled or a room is substandard. Basically, when you arrive at the
airport or hotel, you’re just another client who booked at the lowest rate.
1、Which of the following is TRUE?
A．Third-party providers can ensure your reservation.
B．Mac users are likely to spend more money than PC users.
C．An online travel agency functions the same as an agent.
D．Packages usually provide travelers with satisfactory programmes.
2、What’s the purpose of the passage?
A．To encourage readers to book a trip on an online travel site.
B．To make an advertisement about several travel sites online.
C．To convince readers not to book a trip on an online travel site.
D．To warn readers of some problems with booking trips online.
25．（10分）Everyone has their favourite scenes and characters in Harry Potter books and films．One of the most memorable scenes for many came early on in the series．In Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone，the owls began to send letters to Harry inviting him to Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry．Owls were then mentioned frequently in the books and created amazing images in the films．Everyone around the world loves the Harry Potter series．But if there has been one bad result of J．K．Rowling's creative gifts，it is the craze that has swept through many countries for owning an owl．Many experts suggest that because Harry Potter fans would like to own their own owl，there is a strong chance that owls may soon start to die out．
There are over 200 different species of owl．They are nocturnal birds，which means they are awake at night，usually hunting．They have large round eyes that face forwards on their flat faces．Owls also like to be on their own，unless it is the mating season．
Indonesia is one of the main countries that are now selling owls to young and old Harry Potter fans．There are many bird markets throughout the country，with the largest being Pramuka in Indonesia's capital city，Jakarta．Birds are Indonesia's most popular pet，with about 20 percent of all homes keeping at least one．It is thought that about 13，000 owls are sold each year in Indonesia's bird markets．They cost between ﹩10 and ﹩30．This is affordable for most families where the parents work．Most of
the owls have been taken from the wild and do not live for very long once they have been caught．
Not everyone is happy about the situation，including the Harry Potter author，J．K．Rowling．She said，"If anybody has been influenced by my books，to think an owl would be happiest shut in a small cage and kept in a house，I would like to take this opportunity to say as forcefully as I can，"you are wrong!""
1、What purpose does Paragraph 1serve？
A．To bring up the topic．
B．To express the main idea．
C．To advertise Harry Potter books．
D．To describe the author's favourite animal．
2、What harmful result do the Harry Potter series bring about？
A．Owls being forced out of their homes．
B．An increase in the animal attacks．
C．Damage to children's creativity．
D．A fall in the numbers of owls．
3、What do we know about Indonesia's bird market？
A．They mainly sell owls．
B．They have a ready sale for owls．
C．They usually sell home﹣raised owls．
D．They sell owls at a comparatively high price．
4、What did J．K．Rowling think of the situation？
A．It is something she dislikes．
B．It would be understandable．
C．It is too complex to change．
D．It made her feel excited．

I left home at 17 and pay my own way through college. In the past 20 years, I have worked for everything I needed. So it shocks me what some people in their 20s, still get their life supported by our parents. Some of these parents have difficult supporting their families.
It’s true that the job market is much more harder these days. Therefore, there are certainly some ways to make living on our own.
