Located besideLake Geneva, the Olympic Museum houses more than 10,000 artificial objects and hours of interactive contents highlighting some of the best moments during the Olympics. Here are some of the museum’s most moving moments.
The Olympic Park
The journey through the Olympic Museum begins in the Olympic Park, an 8,000-square-meter outdoor area in front of the museum overlooking Lake Geneva and theAlps. The park contains artwork and sculptures that show respect to the world of sport.
The first Olympic symbol
The “Olympic Rings” flag was designed by Coubertin in 1913. The rings represent the five continents that participate in the Olympics: Africa, Asia,America,AustraliaandEurope. The six color1 s include at least one color1 that is represented on the flag of every country.
The stadiums
The stadiums that host the Olympic Games are as much of a celebration of design as the games are a celebration of sportsmanship. Guests can explore plans and models of Olympic stadiums’ past and present, including one of the games’ most attractive stadiums, the Bird’s Nest from Beijing 2008 Olympics.
The Olympic medals
Have you ever wondered what an Olympic medal looks like? The Olympic Museum has a room that houses every bronze, silver, and gold medal from every Olympic Games dating back to the first modern Olympics of 1896. Each medal design is a unique representation of the year and location in which the games were held.
1.Which moment do you see first when exploring the Olympic Museum?
A.The Olympic Park.
B.The first Olympic symbol.
C.The stadiums.
D.The Olympic medals.
2.What do you know from The first Olympic symbol?
A.The first modern Olympics took place inGreece.
B.There are six color1 s on the flag of every country.
C.Australia used to be the largest continent on earth.
D.The “Olympic Rings” flag was created in 1913.

Starting at university or college can be a big challenge, especially if you’re living away from home for the first time. You arefaced with big questions such as, “Who’s going to do my washing?” “Who’s going to tidy my room?” And, most importantly, “How am I going to eat?” Yes, living on your own means cooking for yourself, and when you’re living a student lifestyle, this could be a recipe for disaster.
Students, in the UK at least, often rely on generally available food such as baked beans or cheese on toast. And for the more adventurous, there’s “spag bol” — spaghetti bolognaise(肉酱意粉), that is, cooked spaghetti served with a ground beef and tomato sauce — a budget-friendly solution. If you make a huge pan of it, it can probably last you a whole week! Other low-cost options include jar sauces and oven pizzas.
Recently, a British supermarket suggested that rose harissa paste, organic cider vinegar and Swiss bouillon powder were the important food materials needed for the “student cupboard”. But are these items considered essential and affordable for someone on a budget?
As a matter of fact, living on a budget is certainly one barrier to eating a well-balanced diet. What’s more, some young people don’t know much about cooking, and for many young students, there are more fun things to go and do than just stay inside and cook. That’s where takeaways and microwave meals come in.
What should a health-conscious student really have in his or her food cupboard? Jack Monroe, a food writer and campaigner, has words to say: baked beans, lemon juice, canned tomatoes and tomato ketchup, described as “salt, sugar, vinegar and tomato all in one handy squeezy bottle”. And should that not appeal, you can always wait till your next visit to your mum and dad for a square meal!
4. What does the author indicate by “this could be a recipe for disaster”?
A. Cooking is difficult for a student.
B. Students must cook if they live alone.
C. It is important to live independently.
D. Learning to cook will cause disasters.
5. What is the feature of “spag bol”?
A. It is delicious.
B. It is healthy.
C. It saves money.
D. It needs little skill.
6. What is paragraph 4 mainly about?
A. How well-balanced diets can be realized.
B. How students can eat healthily with limited money.
C. Why living on a budget is common among students.
D Why students choose takeaways and microwave meals.
7. Why does the author write the last paragraph?
A. To advocate visiting parents.
B. To offer some tips.
C. To promote health consciousness.
D. To introduce a writer.
C
The common use of Google Maps, a navigation(导航) app on smartphones, raises the age-old question we meet with any technology:What skills are we losing? But also, crucially: What capabilities are we gaining?
People who are good at finding their way around or good at using paper maps usually experience lots of confusion with digital maps. For example, they may mess up the direction of north and south, and you can see only a small section at a time. But consider what digital navigation aids have meant for someone like me. Despite being a frequent traveler, I’m so terrible at finding my way that I still use Google Maps almost every day in the small town where I have lived for many years. What seems unnecessary to some has been a significant expansion of my own capabilities.
Part of the problem is that reading paper maps requires a specific skill set. There is nothing natural about them. In many developed nations, street names and house numbers are meaningful, and instructions such as “go north for three blocks and then west” usually make sense. In Istanbul, in contrast, where I grew up, none of those hold true. For one thing, the locals rarely use street names, and house numbers often aren’tsequentialeither because after buildings 1, 2 and 3 were built, someone squeezed in another house between 1 and 2, and now that’s 4. But then 5 will maybe get built after 3, and 6 will be between 2 and 3. Besides, the city is full of winding and ancient streets that meet with newer ones. Therefore, instructions as simple as “go north” would require a helicopter. I got lost all the time.
But since I used Google Maps, I travel with a lot more confidence, and my world has opened up. And because I go to more places more confidently, I believe my native navigation skills have somewhat improved, too.
That brings me back to my original question: while we often lose some skills after seeking convenience from technology, this new setup may also allow us to expand our capabilities and do something more confidently. Maybe when technology closes a door, we should also look for the doors it opens.
8. How does the author feel about Google Maps?
A Confusing. B. Unnecessary. C. Complicated. D. Helpful.
9. Which contributes to the difficulty of finding ways in Istanbul?
A. Strange street names.
B. Ordinary paper maps.
C. Complex road arrangements.
D. Lack of road instructions.
10. What does the underlined word “sequential” in Paragraph 3 probably mean?
A. In a fixed order.
B. In good condition.
C. Of great importance.
D. Of the same kind.
11. What column of a newspaper may this passage belong to?
A. Fashion.
B. Opinion.
C. Society.
D. Geography.
D
My sister Alice and I have been trying to get people tostop dropping cigarette（香烟）butts（烟头）for seven years. One day, we were walking in our hometown and saw hundreds of cigarette butts on the ground. They made the town look so ugly that we decided to start a group to make people dropping butts. We called it “No Butts About It”.
At first, we drew pictures with “The Earth is not your ashtray（烟灰缸）”written on them. We put the pictures around our hometown—in parks, by beaches, and along roads. We wanted to make people understand that dropping butts hurts the environment. Most smokers don’t think that dropping butts hurts the Earth. But it does, and all rubbish does!
Later, we wrote to companies and asked them for money to help us. We used the money to buy ashtrays to give to smokers. We wanted smokers to carry the ashtrays with them so they didn’t have to drop butts.
At the moment, we are trying to get cigarette companies to put an ashtray in each pack of cigarettes. Some companies want to do it. Many people have started to join our group since it began. Today there are 45 other “No Butts About It” groups inAmerica.
Now there even groups inEngland,Australia, andIndia! Many newspapers have written about my sister and me over the last seven years. And we have won many prizes for what we do. But we are not interested in prizes. We just want to make the Earth a better and cleaner place for animals, plants and people.
One day, it will be.
12. What did the writer think about the cigarette butts in the first place?
A. They made the town smelly.
B. They made the town unhealthy.
C. They made the town dirty.
D. They made the town poor.
13. What does the writer do with the cigarette butts?
A. Give ashtrays to the smokers.
B. Stop people buying cigarettes.
C. Pick up the cigarette butts.
D. Win prizes for starting groups.
14. From the passage we can know that _____.
A. no companies wanted to give money to them
B. The writer believes that the Earth will be a better and cleaner place
C. There are only 45”No Butts About It”
D. The writer likes to be on newspapers and win prizes
215. Which is the best tittle for the passage?
