The increasingly popular“design museums”that are opening today, however, perform quite a different role. Unlike most art museums, the design museum shows objects that are easily found by the general public. These museums sometimes even place things like fridges and washing machines in the center of the hall.People have argued that design museums are often made use of as advertisements for new industrial technology. But their role is not simply a matter of sales—it is the honoring of excellently invented products. The difference between the window of a department store and the showcase in a design museum is that the first tries to sell you something, while the second tells you the success of a sale.One advantage of design museums is that they are places where people feel familiar with the exhibits. Unlike the average art museum visitors, design museum visitors seldom feel frightened or puzzled. This is partly because design museums clearly show how and why mass-produced products work and look as they do, and how design has improved the quality of our lives. Art museum exhibits, on the other hand, would most probably fill visitors with a feeling that there is something beyond their understanding.In recent years, several new design museums have opened their doors. Each of these museums has tried to satisfy the public’s growing interest in the field with new ideas. London’s Design Museum, for example, shows a collection of mass-produced objects from Zippo lighters to electric typewriters to a group of Italian fish-tins. The choices open to design museums seem far less strict than those to art museums, and visitors may also sense the humorous part of our society while walking around such exhibits as interesting and unusually attractive toys collected in our everyday life.36. Showcases in design museums are different fromstore windows because they .A. show more technologically advanced productsB. help increase the sales of productsC. show why the products have sold wellD. attract more people than store windows do37. The author believes that most design museumvisitors .A. do not admire mass-produced productsB. are puzzled with technological exhibitsC. dislike exhibits in art museumsD. know the exhibits very well38. The choices open to design museums .A. are not as strict as those to art museumsB. are not aimed at interesting the publicC. may fail to bring some pleasure to visitorsD. often contain precious exhibits39. What’s the best title for this passage?A. The Forms of Design MuseumsB. The Exhibits of Design MuseumsC. The Nature of Design MuseumsD. The Choices Open to Design MuseumsBThe opera house in Santa Fe, New Mexico, is one of the most beautiful opera houses in the United States. It is small and open, with one roof (屋顶)over the stage where singers perform and another roof over part of the audience. This opera house in the mountain is one of the best in the country, which may seem surprising because performances are only given during seven weeks in the summer, and because Santa Fe is a very small city.Every year the Santa Fe Opera attracts many excellent young singers. They all hope to sing in famous opera houses like Metropolitan in New York someday, and they work hard to become well-known during the summer. The musicians and directors are experts who come from the best orchestras and operas in the country for their vacations. They enjoy working there because they like to live in Santa Fe, which is near both mountains and desert. It is very beautiful there in summer.The state government of New Mexico advertises the Sante Fe Opera in newspapers all over the country, and a great many tourists come to New Mexico for the opera. Most of the audience come from Santa Fe and other nearby cities, and all the seats in the theater are sold out for every show.The only one thing that some people do not like about the Santa Fe Opera is the cold weather. Because the theater is open, performances can not start before it gets dark at nine o’clock in the evening when the mountain air becomes very cool. Sometimes people complain about the cold air, but because the operas are good, these people come back again, wearing warm coats.40. The underlined word“which”in the first paragraphrefers to .A. the building of the opera house in Santa FeB. the fact that the roof is over part of the audienceC. the fact that this mountain opera house is one ofthe best in the countryD. the design of the opera house41.

It originated in the 6th century. The ancient people cut paper into animals or people. They either buried them with the dead or burned them at funerals, wishing that the things the paper stood for could be with the dead. Later, they were used during festivals to decorate gates and windows. After hundreds of years of development, they have now become a very popular means of decoration among country folk, especially women.It is easy to learn how to cut a piece of paper but very difficult to master it to perfection. Beginners need only a knife and paper. For a craftswoman, knives of various types are required to make complicated patterns. It can be one piece of paper or many pieces. Simple patterns can be cut with a knife. For complicated patterns, people first paste the pattern on the paper and then use various kinds of knives to make it. No mistake can be made during the process, otherwise the work will fail.Paper-cutting covers nearly all topics, from flowers, birds, animals, legendary people, and figures in classic novels to types of facial make-up in Peking Opera. Paper-cutting has various styles in different parts of China.In the past, women living in the countryside gathered in their free time to make paper-cuttings, which was a way to judge their skills. As society develops, fewer and fewer people are learning this skill though there are some who still regard it as a profession. At present, there are factories and associations for paper-cutting in China. Exhibitions and exchanges are held regularly and books about it are published. Paper-cutting has changed from a decoration to a kind of art. At the same time, paper-cutting also appears in cartoons, on stage, in magazines and in TV series.47. What is the passage mainly about?A. Funerals in ancient China.B. How to make paper-cuttings.C. A special kind of art form in China.D. Decoration of festivals in ancient China.48. Why did the ancient people burn paper animals orpeople at funerals?A. They thought the dead liked the paper-cuttings.B. They wanted to show respect for the dead.C. They wanted them to accompany the dead.D. They wanted the dead to use them asdecorations.49. If a mistake is made during the process ofpaper-cutting, .A. you have to correct it after you finish thepaper-cuttingB. you can use various kinds of knives to correct itC. all the work you have done will be wastedD. it doesn’t affect the work50. From the passage, we can learn that .A. it is very easy to become a paper-cutting artistB. perfect paper-cutting requires great patienceand skillC. paper-cutting is limited to some topicsD. paper-cutting only has a few fixed stylesⅣ.任务型阅读(共10小题；每小题1分，满分10分) 阅读下面的短文，根据所读内容在表格中的空白处填入恰当的单词。

first_________．A．intention B．attempt C．purpose D．desire解析1．【句意】医院里所有的医生都坚持说他伤得很重，马上要动手术．答案：D．考查虚拟语气．考查insist在表达不同意义时的虚拟和不虚拟的情况．insist意为"坚持说"时，从句不用虚拟语气；而它表示"坚决要求"时，从句用虚拟语气．根据句意：医院里所有的医生都坚持说他伤得很重，马上要动手术．所以第一个空不是虚拟语气，第二个空要用虚拟语气，故选：D．2．【句意】如果可能我本可以告诉他答案，但是我那时很忙．答案：C 根据句意可知"告诉他答案"是虚拟语气，"很忙"是过去的事实，用一般过去时．主语是I，用was．故选C．3．【句意】你害怕自己的影子真的是太滑稽了，只要有光影子就会一直跟着你．答案：B解析：A：树荫；阴影；B：影子；C：数字；人物；图形；体形；画像．根据句意"你害怕自己的影子真的是太滑稽了，只要有光影子就会一直跟着你．"及所给选项分析可知，本题答案为B选项；其余选项均不符合题意．4．【句意】这两个学生说话好像他们已经是多年的朋友了．答案：D 根据句意可知"他们是多年的朋友．"是和事实不符的情况，as if后面的从句情况和事实不符的话，用虚拟语气，用相应的过去时，由talked说明是和过去相反用过去完成时．故选：D．5．【句意】要不是大雾，我们本应该到达了我们学校．答案选D．考查介词短语．because of 由于，因为；in spite of 尽管，即使；in case of 以防，万一；but for 要不是，通常用于非真实条件句中，相当于if条件句的用法，主句中使用虚拟语气．根据语境及句意可知此处表达"要不是大雾，我们本应该到了学校"，因此答案选D．6．【句意】我想要一个报酬更多的工作，但是另一方面我喜欢现在做的工作．答案：B in other words换句话说；on the other hand另一方面；for one thing 首先；as a matter of fact事实上．根据语境和各个选项可知选B．7．【句意】在这篇文章中，你需要用具体的例子来支持总的观点．答案：A．A．具体，明确的；B．永久的；C．抽象的；D．全球的，共通的．根据句意"需要用具体的例子来支持总的观点"可知选A．need to do sth需要做某事；back up支持．故选：A．8．【句意】若没有战时的经历，海明威就不可能写出他著名的小说《永别了，武器》．答案：D．根据题干中的without可知本句是含蓄条件句，相当于if引导的虚拟条件从句，所以其主句的谓语动词则用相应的形式．根据语境without his wartime experiences"没有他战时的经历"，可知是对过去情况的否定虚拟，所以主句的谓语动词需用would/could/might/should have done，故选：D．9．【句意】Ellen是一个极棒的舞者，我希望我能跳得和她一样地好．根据谓语动词is 可确定是对现在情况的假设．wish后跟宾语从句用虚拟语气时，如对现在情况假设，从句中的谓语动词用过去式（be 用were），所以选D．10．【句意】Shelly为生物考试准备了很充分，所以她很确信可以第一次尝试就能通过．答案：B根据题意Shelly为生物考试准备了很充分，所以确信"初次尝试"就可以通过，固定短语on one's first attempt"某人初次尝试"符合题意．intention"意图，打算"；purpose"目的"；desire"欲望，渴望"二.重点单词训练（举一反三）1．Cleaning the panels（传统地，常规地，惯例）uses precious water．2．Many unearthed cultural relics are being（展览，陈列，展览会）at the

高中英语学习材料***鼎尚图文理制作***Book 6 Unit 1 Art单元测试第二部分：阅读理解（共两节，满分40分）第一节（共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分）阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项。
A★★☆☆☆September 30, 2011Skunk Scooters100 Caldwell StreetOmaha, NE 68102To Whom It May Concern:On August 27, 2011, I ordered a Skunk Scooter from your website. I was very excited when the motorcycle arrived because I bought it with the money I saved from doing part-time jobs over the summer vacation. Unfortunately, I have experienced several problems with my Skunk Scooter.First of all, the front wheel always shakes from side to side, making the scooter difficult to control. Also, it makes an unpleasant sound as the wheel works. The sound is much louder than a car engine. The instructions say we should tighten the screws (螺丝). My mom and I did that. However, it did not help at all.In addition, something is wrong with the handlebars (手把). According to your website, they can be easily raised to a height of thirty-six inches. This does not seem to be true of the Skunk Scooter I received. The handlebars are set at thirty inches, and they cannot be raised or lowered. It appears that the knob (球形把手) that is used to change the height is pushed into the handlebars, which makes it impossible to turn in either direction. It is extremely uncomfortable to ride the motorbike with itshandlebars in such a low position.Although you advertised the Skunk Scooter as “the quickest, coolest scooter on the planet,” it makes me feel very disg runtled. I am expecting that the repair of the scooter would be done at the earliest or else I want my money back. I know that you would not want customers to keep broken products. Therefore, I would like to thank you in advance for taking the trouble to solve the problem.Sincerely,Natasha Greene21. The text is probably written by a _____.A. repairmanB. shopkeeperC. studentD. salesgirl22. What’s wrong with the front wheel of the scooter?A. Several screws on it are missing.B. It is not as big as the website says.C. It keeps shaking and makes a noise.D. It cannot turn as fast as the back one.23. The underlined word “disgruntled” in the text probably means “_____”.A. excitedB. confusedC. proudD. dissatisfied24. Natasha wrote the letter mainly to _____.A. demand after-sales serviceB. send her congratulationsC. express thankfulnessD. make an apologyB★★★☆☆Recently, a painting of actress Elizabeth Taylor, which was drawn by American artist and filmmaker Andy Warhol, sold for US $63 million. Another simple black-and-white image of a Coca-Cola bottle sold for US $35 million. But the all-timerecord for a Warhol painting is $100 million for a piece tit led “Eight Elvises”. What’s amazing is not that the pieces sold for so much, but the fact that they are not what you would call traditional art. They are “pop art”, art based on simple images of things and people from advertising, movies, music and day-to-day life.Born in the 1920s, Warhol grew up mostly separated from other children due to (由于) health problems. He spent a lot of his time alone drawing and then went on to study art in college. He began his career as a commercial (商业的) artist, creating pictures for magazine articles and newspaper ads. That inspired him to experiment with pop art and he hosted America’s first pop art exhibition in the 1960s. The show met with a lot of discussion with some people saying that what he was doing was not art.Warhol followed his first works with a series we are all familiar with —paintings of Coca-Cola bottles, Brillo soap pad boxes, and portraits (肖像) of famous people. Soon after, Warhol stopped creating his own artwork. Instead, he had assistants and other artists create them at his studio called “The Factory”. Warhol wanted to show the world that art doesn’t have to be complex or original; it can be created by anyone using ordinary things.Today, Warhol’s work is unmistakable in its uniqu eness. No matter how you may feel about his work, one thing cannot be argued. He introduced the world to a whole new art form, inspiring future generations of artists, and eventually becoming one of the most famous and successful pop art artists in the world.25. Which of the following pictures sold for $100 million?26. During his childhood, Warhol _____.A. drew pictures for magazinesB. always lived a lonely lifeC. showed no interest in artD. liked to paint and dance27. Calling his studio “The Factory”, Warhol tried to show _____.A. his studio was as big as a factoryB. pop art is different from traditional artC. artists prefer to work in a factoryD. art should be simple and easy to produce28. What would be the best title for the text?A. Andy Warhol’s world of pop artB. Women in the pop art movementC. A fun pop-art self-portrait for kidsD. Popular paintings by Andy WarholC★★★☆☆John was part of my childhood growing up in the 1970s and a link to sunny, fun-filled days spent on the beach at Bangor in Northern Ireland where we went forour summer holidays. To many, he was a mystery. Every afternoon John would wander to the end of the pier (码头) where he fed the seagulls and delighted in the sound of their excited cries as they flew around his head.Often I asked my family questions regarding John. Eventually I gave up as no one could tell me anything about him. As I grew up, my visits to the beach became less frequent, and my memories of John buried in a child’s imagination.Last year memories came flooding back as I walked along the coastline, where I noticed a lady feeding the seagulls on the pier, and I decided to introduce myself. Then I came to know that the lady was John’s daughter, and after John left this world she carried out the ritual (惯例), which had held such importance for her father.In some strange way I felt we shared a bond, each needing to remember. In return, Lucy told me of John’s life, his days in the British Navy (海军) during World War I and how he almost lost hope when his ship was attacked by a German U-boat in the North Sea and he found himself in a lifeboat with five others.Close to death, he thought he heard the sound of wings. He put up his hands, only to catch a seagull that had landed on the side of the boat. The seagull saved the lives of the six men as it was used to catch fish, which kept them alive until they re ached land. This period of John’s life was one he never talked about. But the ritual he first performed as a young man remained a part of him until he died.Now I visit Lucy as often as I can, just to chat or very often walk along the beach to the pier end. We enjoy the comfortable silence, each lost in special memories.29. Seeing John feeding the seagulls, the author might feel _____.A. proudB. worriedC. curiousD. guilty30. Why did the author introduce herself to the lady?A. She wanted to make more friends.B. She was also fond of feeding seagulls.C. She was told the lady was John’s daughter.D. She was attracted by what the lady was doing.31. We can infer from the text that John _____.A. once served in both World WarsB. was a man with a grateful heartC. spent his childhood in BangorD. joined the navy in the 1970s32. What does the author mainly tell us in the text?A. She expressed her thanks to a seagull that saved her life.B. She told us the story of how she made friends with a lady.C. She shared with us her memories of a man who fed seagulls.D. She talked about her childhood spent on the beach at Bangor.D★★★★☆A man pulls into the parking lot, turns off the engine, and sits for a minute feeling anxious about the next two hours. An important client (客户) has invited him to an open house in celebration of their new downtown office. He hates these things. He doesn’t know what to say, he doesn’t know anyone except the client, and he alw ays feels like he’s trying not to look lost. He sinks deeper into the seat, making a tough decision about when to leave.Casual (随意的) conversation happens at least a dozen times a day. Yet for some of us, many occasions that involve small talk don’t ever get any easier, and may even increase anxiety and cause some people to feel on edge about social events, business lunches, and chance meetings with neighbors. Unfortunately, as we are suffering our own discomfort, our neighbors, friends, and workmates generally consider us distant, cold, and proud.If your conversations disappear almost as soon as they’ve begun, or if you’re an unwilling participant at social and business get-togethers, you’ll need some skills. Just get involved in a meaningful dialogue, try your best to introduce an interesting topic when there’s a silence, and develop business friendships whenever and wherever possible.Small talk isn’t the lowly stepchild of real conversation. Without it, you rarely get to the real conversation. Small talk is the icebreaker that clears the way for adeeper conversation. People who excel at small talk are experts at making others feel included, valued, and comfortable. And that goes a long way toward furthering a business relationship, or making a friend.Don’t be fooled into thinking that all those other people you see who are smiling and happily chatting come by it naturally. Sure, some are natural-born talkers, but most have had to work at it. They’ve practiced, attended cour ses and read books. You don’t think so? Believe me, I know. I used to be a single-minded, unsociable engineer — no one has worse skills than I once did. I have become an expert by learning some skills and then practicing them. It’s that simple.33. According to Paragraph 2, those who are poor at casual conversation _____.A. are sometimes considered unfriendlyB. believe small talk is a waste of timeC. have few chances to meet strangersD. feel comfortable when they are with neighbors34. What does the author stress in Paragraph 4?A. The important functions of small talk.B. The difficulties of starting a deep conversation.C. The advantages of small talk over real conversation.D. The differences between small talk and real conversation.35. In the last paragraph, the author mentions his own experience to _____.A. show a good method of improving social skillsB. prove some people are born brilliant speakersC. show his achievements in social activitiesD. prove conversation skills can be acquired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。

2019-2020学年人教版选修六 Unit1 Art 单元测试题(含答案)
2019-2020学年人教版选修六Unit1 Art 单元测试题（含答案）（本卷满分100分）一、阅读理解（每小题2分，共16分）ABenjamin West, the father of American painting, showed his talent for art when he was only six years of age. But he did not know about brushes before a visitor told him he needed one. In those days, a brush was made from camel’s hair. There were no camels nearby. Benjamin decided that cat hair would work instead. He cut some fur from the family cat to make a brush.The brush did not last long. Soon Benjamin needed more fur. Before long, the cat began to look ragged(蓬乱). His father said that the cat must be sick. Benjamin was forced to admit what he had been doing.The cat’s lot was about to improve.That year, one of Benjamin’s cousins, Mr. Pennington, came to visit. He was impressed wit h Benjamin’s drawings. When he went home, he sent Benjamin a box of paint and some brushes. He also sent six engravings(版画) by an artist. These were the first pictures and first real paint and brushes Benjamin had ever seen.In 1747, when Benjamin was nine years old, Mr. Pennington returned for another visit. He was amazed at what Benjamin had done with his gift. He asked Benjamin’s parents if he might take the boy to Philadelphia for a visit.In the city, Mr. Pennington gave Benjamin materials for creating oil paintings. The boy began a landscape(风景) painting. William Williams, a well-known painter, came to see him work. Williams was impressed with Benjamin and gave him two classic books on painting to take home. The books were long and dull. Benjamin could read only a little, having been a poor student. But he later said, “Those two books were my companions by day, and under my pillow at night.” While it is likely that he understood very little of the books, they were his introduction to classical paintings. The nine-year-old boy decided then that he would be an artist.1. What is the text mainly about?A. Benjamin’s visit to Philadelphia.B. Williams’ influence on Benjamin.C. The beginning of Benjamin’s life as an artist.D. The friendship between Benjamin and Pennington.2. What does the underlined sentence in paragraph 3 suggest?A. The cat would be closely watched.B. The cat would get some medical care.C. Benjamin would leave his home shortly.D. Benjamin would have real brushes soon.3. What did Pennington do to help Benjamin develop his talent?A. He took him to see painting exhibitions.B. He provided him with painting materials.C. He sent him to a school in Philadelphia.D. He taught him how to make engravings.4. Williams’ two books helpe d Benjamin to ________.A. master the use of paintsB. appreciate landscape paintingsC. get to know other paintersD. make up his mind to be a painterBFive years ago, when I taught art at a school in Seattle, I used Tinkertoys as a test at the beginning of a term to find out something about my students. I put a small set of Tinkertoys in front of each student, and said: “Make something out of the Tinkertoys. You have 45 minutes today—and 45 minutes each day for the rest of the week.”A few students hesitated to start. They waited to see what the rest of the class would do. Several others checked the instructions and made something according to one of the model plans provided. Another group built something out of their own imaginations.Once I had a boy who worked experimentally with Tinkertoys in his free time. His constructions filled a shelf in the art classroom and a good part of his bedroom at home. I was delighted at the presence of such a student. Here was an exceptionally creative mind at work. His presence meant that I had an unexpected teaching assistant in class whose creativity would infect(感染) other students.Encouraging this kind of thinking has a downside. I ran the risk of losing those students who had a different style of thinking. Wi thout fail one would declare, “But I’m just not creative.”“Do you dream at night when you’re asleep?”“Oh, sure.”“So tell me one of your most interesting dreams.”The student would tell something wildlyimaginative. Flying in the sky or in a time machine or growing three heads. “That’s pretty creative. Who does that for you?”“Nobody. I do it.”“Really—at night, when you’re asleep?”“Sure.”“Try doing it in the daytime, in class, okay?”5. The teacher used Tinkertoys in class in order to .A. know more about the studentsB. make the lessons more excitingC. raise the students’ interest in artD. teach the students about toy design6. What do we know about the boy mentioned in Paragraph 3?A. He liked to help his teacher.B. He preferred to study alone.C. He was active in class.D. He was imaginative.7. What does the underlined word “downside” in Paragraph 4 probably mean?A. Mistake.B. Drawback.C. Difficulty.D. Burden.8. Why did the teacher ask the students to talk about their dreams?A. To help them to see their creativity.B. To find out about their sleeping habits.C. To help them to improve their memory.D. To find out about their ways of thinking.二、七选五（每小题2分，共10分）Children art education is something that is much encouraged for children’s creative growth. This is necessary because a child can have a sense of appreciation of the arts and along with all the other things that they learn in school. 9Children art education should be designed from a very early age so that they are allowed to express themselves freely in whatever way that they wish to. 10However, the task of children art education is not a very easy one, because you have to find the right way in which you can help them get interested in what you are trying to teach them. 11 The physical space where the art education is to be carried out should also be carefully decorated to make it attractive to the children. Use of colors should be made in abundance(丰富) as that is what attracts a child first to it.Displaying examples of artwork that you think would be important enough to influence the children is also a good idea. Of course, a photograph of a painting of the Madonna(圣母马利亚) is something that children might not appreciate. 12 This will be a source of inspiration for the children to try them out as well.The creative process is something that you must not interfere with(干涉) during a children art education class. 13 But after that, you must wait for the children themselves to come up with somethi ng meaningful to their ability. As long as the result is connected with the topic, every child’s art work is worth praising.A. You can just give them a topic for drawing.B. Instead, put up paintings that children will be fond of.C. The reason for this could be the lack of interest in the teacher.D. A trip to an art museum can be an inspiration to many students.E. They also have a place where they can express all their feelings.F. This is the only way that art can be appreciated as children grow up.G. So creating the right environment for children art education is very important.三、完形填空（每小题1.5分，共30分）Back in the 15th century, in a tiny village near Nuremberg lived a family with several children. In order to 14 these children, the father worked hard. Despite their seemingly 15 condition, two of the children had a 16 . They both wanted to pursue their talent for 17 , but their father would never be 18 able to send either of them to Nuremberg to study at the Academy.After long 19 , the two boys finally came to an agreement. They would toss(投掷) a coin. The loser would work in the nearby 20 to support his brother while he attended the Academy. Then, when the winner completed his studies, he would support the other either with 21 of his artwork or by laboring in the mines.They tossed a coin as they had 22 . Albrecht Durer won the toss and 23 to NuRemberg. Albert went to work in the dangerous mines and financed his brother. Albrecht’s 24 were far better than those of most of his professors, and by the time he 25 , he was beginning to earn lots of money for his works.When the young artist returned to his village, he thanked his beloved 26 for the years of sacrifice that had made it 27 to achieve his ambition, and said, “Now, it is your 28 to pursueyour dream, and I will support you.”29 , Albert refused Albrecht and said softly, “It is too 30 for me. The bones in every finger have been broken. I cannot even hold a glass, 31 hold a pen or a brush.”One day, to show gratitude(感激) to Albert, Albrecht 32 his brother’s abused hands as a gift and called his powerful drawing simply “Hands”, but the entire world renamed his 33 of love “The Praying Hands”.14.

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.Reduce periods of driving and try walking or cycling instead. If you are used to driving your car to get to wherever you are going, it would be great for you if you substituted walking or cycling for driving. Cycling and walking are good workouts that will ensure that your body burns excess fat and calories, and therefore, you will be able to lose weight.It is important to know that there are so many ways in which we can turn our bad habits into good ones.

As usual, I looked through the front pages of 1 women wearing designer clothes with ads promising it to be "Best of the Best".

Unit 1 Art 单元测试题2第二部分：阅读理解（共两节，满分40分）第一节（共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分）阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项。
ARecently we talked with Diane Lucas of about scrapbooking (剪贴薄制作).What is scrapbooking exactly?When I make a scrapbook page, I take a few of my family photos and put them into a page that uses beautiful paper, stickers, drawings, and words to show the theme. For example, this page about my son is called “First Day at School”. Here's a photo of him and one of his drawings, and I decorated it with stickers. When you make a scrapbook, you can put words and pictures together to show the important times in your life. It's like a personal history.How did you get started?When I was a child, I always saved bits of paper, things like movie tickets and vacation postcards. I made my first scrapbook ten years ago, when my father died. When I looked through his desk, I found the most wonderful things — like my parents' anniversary (周年纪念) cards, and photos from his army days. I couldn't throw away anything, so I made two scrapbooks with my collections, for my brother and me.Do you know other people who make scrapbooks?Oh, yes! We call ourselves “scrappers”, and we often have “crops”, big parties where we all work on our scrapbooks. We bring our scissors and papers and our boxes of photos, and we talk while making new pages. It's a time for enjoyment, when friends show pictures and tell stories about our families, and our lives. At the same time, we create a book to keep those memories.Why is scrapbooking so popular these days?I think people want to record their family history, and show it to other people. When you make a scrapbook, you can pass the stories on to your children, and your grandchildren. So many people today want to do that! We all have boxes of pictures, and we all want to keep those memories. That's the real meaning of scrapbooking.21. Scrapbooking requires that the scrappers have _____.A. a bit of creativityB. good handwritingC. rich life experiencesD. a wide knowledge of history22. Diane Lucas made her first scrapbook _____.A. in honor of her fatherB. when serving in the armyC. with the help of her brotherD. under the influence of her parents23. What does Diane Lucas think of the “crops”?A. They're hard to hold.B. They're very interesting.C. They're quite competitive.D. They're full of challenges.24. In Diane Lucas' mind, scrapbooking is a good way to _____.A. make friendsB. rewrite historyC. educate childrenD. share people's storiesBTabloids (小报) are newspapers that usually report news about people. However, the stories often leave readers wondering, “Could this really be true?” Read the following stories from the hottest tabloids in town.Brasilia, Brazil After Gilberto Carvalho — a million-dollar lottery (彩票) winner — told reporters that his luck had come from a particular fish in a park pond, morethan 200 other Brazilians spoke up with similar stories. They had touched this fish and soon after had won a prize! Although this “magic fish” is being studied andoff-limits to the public, many people have won money simply by touching its picture.Cleveland, Ohio, U.S. Bruce Zalmer, 32, is fireproof. His skin can withstand (禁得住) flames without pain or damage. And his lungs (肺) can take in oxygen from smoky air. Medical scientists are amazed that a human could have either of these qualities, let alone both. Although Zalmer sees himself as “just a regular guy”, he once saved a family of four from a burning building after firefighters had given up hope.Nakuru, Kenya As tourists in a bus looked on in amazement, a spaceship caught 11 elephants from a wildlife park. The bus driver had stopped at a watering hole and the tourists were watching the elephants when a huge spaceship appeared. The ship shot down a powerful beam of orange light that sucked up (吸走) the elephants and then flew off. Park officials confirmed that 11 full-grown elephants had disappeared.Monterrey, Mexico Doctors say that hundreds of people who had been old and sick became young and healthy again by drinking from a water fountain (喷泉) in a public park. Park officials removed the fountain because crowds were becoming a danger. Yet the people who had drunk its water remained young and healthy — and made others young and healthy, too, simply by hugging them!25. In Brasilia, it's said that there is a magic fish that _____.A. brings people good luckB. knows how to win prizesC. can communicate with humansD. can recognize different types of money26. Which of the following can best describe Bruce Zalmer?A. Smart.B. Brave.C. Dangerous.D. Far-sighted.27. All the stories mentioned in the text are _____.A. reasonableB. frighteningC. encouragingD. unbelievableCPeople who realize and master the art of small talk can use it to improve relationship s. Small talk can lead to “big” talk — more important discussions. Using small talk, you can achieve big results. But many people do have fears that hold them back from making small talk.For one thing, those who refuse to make small talk usually fear the unknown. When I was little, my mom said, “Don't talk to strangers!” For some people, that childhood fear of strangers continues into adulthood.Suppose you are at a business networking event and have checked out who is there and found potential (潜在的) conversation partners. You're ready to make your move, but there are butterflies in your stomach. You are too frightened to introduce yourself to total strangers.Consider a different situation for the next networking event you attend. To overcome your nervousness, you can think of yourself as an event's host and not its guest. As a host, you would introduce yourself to people you don't know and introduce them to others. You can play the role of the host even though you are not the actual host. Get in the habit of holding out your hand first and saying, “Hi, my name is ...”Another reason why people refuse to open their mouth is the fear of rejection. Anytime you open your mouth and speak, you risk rejection. If you never talk to people, you won't be rejected. But if you never talk to people, you will also be very lonely. The best way I've found to overcome the fear of rejection is to focus on how I feel when I am accepted.So ask yourself: what do I have to lose? Nothing! What do I have to gain? Possibly everything! Think back to when you first met your best friend or any important person in your life. How did it all start? You probably started with small talk.28. In Paragraph 1, the author wants to tell us that small talk is _____.A. worth doingB. hard to makeC. often ignoredD. very interesting。

Unit 1 Art第二部分：阅读理解（共两节，满分40分）第一节（共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分）阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项。
A★★☆☆☆September 30, 2011Skunk Scooters100 Caldwell StreetOmaha, NE 68102To Whom It May Concern:On August 27, 2011, I ordered a Skunk Scooter from your website. I was very excited when the motorcycle arrived because I bought it with the money I saved from doing part-time jobs over the summer vacation. Unfortunately, I have experienced several problems with my Skunk Scooter.First of all, the front wheel always shakes from side to side, making the scooter difficult to control. Also, it makes an unpleasant sound as the wheel works. The sound is much louder than a car engine. The instructions say we should tighten the screws (螺丝). My mom and I did that. However, it did not help at all.In addition, something is wrong with the handlebars (手把). According to your website, they can be easily raised to a height of thirty-six inches. This does not seem to be true of the Skunk Scooter I received. The handlebars are set at thirty inches, and they cannot be raised or lowered. It appears that the knob (球形把手) that is used to change the height is pushed into the handlebars, which makes it impossible to turn in either direction. It is extremely uncomfortable to ride the motorbike with its handlebars in such a low position.Although you advertised the Skunk Scooter as “the quickest, coolest scooter on the planet,” it makes me feel very disgruntled. I am expecting that the repair of the scooter would be done at the earliest or else I want my money back.I know that you would not want customers to keep broken products. Therefore, I would like to thank you in advance for taking the trouble to solve the problem.Sincerely,Natasha Greene21. The text is probably written by a _____.A. repairmanB. shopkeeperC. studentD. salesgirl22. What’s wrong with the front wheel of the scooter?A. Several screws on it are missing.B. It is not as big as the website says.C. It keeps shaking and makes a noise.D. It cannot turn as fast as the back one.23. The underlined word “disgruntled” in the text probably means “_____”.A. excitedB. confusedC. proudD. dissatisfied24. Natasha wrote the letter mainly to _____.A. demand after-sales serviceB. send her congratulationsC. express thankfulnessD. make an apologyB★★★☆☆Recently, a painting of actress Elizabeth Taylor, which was drawn by American artist and filmmaker Andy Warhol, sold for US $63 million. Another simple black-and-white image of a Coca-Cola bottle sold for US $35 million. But the all-time record for a Warhol painting is $100 million for a piece titled “Eight Elvises”.What’s amazing is not that the pieces sold for so much, but the fact that they are not what you would call traditional art. They are “pop art”, art based on simple images of things and people from advertising, movies, music and day-to-day life.Born in the 1920s, Warhol grew up mostly separated from other children due to (由于) health problems. He spent a lot of his time alone drawing and then went on to study art in college. He began his career as a commercial (商业的) artist, creating pictures for magazine articles and newspaper ads. That inspired him to experiment with pop art and he hosted America’s first pop art exhibition in the 1960s. The show met with a lot of discussion with some people saying that what he was doing was not art.Warhol followed his first works with a series we are all familiar with — paintings of Coca-Cola bottles, Brillo soap pad boxes, and portraits (肖像) of famous people. Soon after, Warhol stopped creating his own artwork. Instead, he had assistants and other artists create them at his studio called “The Factory”. W arhol wanted to show the world that art doesn’t have to be complex or original; it can be created by anyone using ordinary things.Today, Warhol’s work is unmistakable in its uniqueness. No matter how you may feel about his work, one thing cannot be argued. He introduced the world to a whole new art form, inspiring future generations of artists, and eventually becoming one of the most famous and successful pop art artists in the world. 25. Which of the following pictures sold for $100 million?26. During his childhood, Warhol _____.A. drew pictures for magazinesB. always lived a lonely lifeC. showed no interest in artD. liked to paint and dance27. Calling his studio “The Factory”, Warhol tried to show _____.A. his studio was as big as a factoryB. pop art is different from traditional artC. artists prefer to work in a factoryD. art should be simple and easy to produce28. What would be the best title for the text?A. Andy Warhol’s world of pop artB. Women in the pop art movementC. A fun pop-art self-portrait for kidsD. Popular paintings by Andy WarholC★★★☆☆John was part of my childhood growing up in the 1970s and a link to sunny, fun-filled days spent on the beach at Bangor in Northern Ireland where wewent for our summer holidays. To many, he was a mystery. Every afternoon John would wander to the end of the pier (码头) where he fed the seagulls and delighted in the sound of their excited cries as they flew around his head.Often I asked my family questions regarding John. Eventually I gave up as no one could tell me anything about him. As I grew up, my visits to the beach became less frequent, and my memories of John buried in a child’s imagination.Last year memories came flooding back as I walked along the coastline, where I noticed a lady feeding the seagulls on the pier, and I decided to introduce myself. Then I came to know that the lady was John’s daughter, and after John left this world she carried out the ritual (惯例), which had held such importance for her father.In some strange way I felt we shared a bond, each needing to remember. In return, Lucy told me of John’s life, his days in the British Navy (海军) during World War I and how he almost lost hope when his ship was attacked by a German U-boat in the North Sea and he found himself in a lifeboat with five others.Close to death, he thought he heard the sound of wings. He put up his hands, only to catch a seagull that had landed on the side of the boat. The seagull saved the lives of the six men as it was used to catch fish, which kept them alive until they reached land. This period of John’s life was one he never talked about. But the ritual he first performed as a young man remained a part of him until he died.Now I visit Lucy as often as I can, just to chat or very often walk along the beach to the pier end. We enjoy the comfortable silence, each lost in special memories.29. Seeing John feeding the seagulls, the author might feel _____.A. proudB. worriedC. curiousD. guilty30. Why did the author introduce herself to the lady?A. She wanted to make more friends.B. She was also fond of feeding seagulls.C. She was told the lady was John’s daughter.D. She was attracted by what the lady was doing.31. We can infer from the text that John _____.A. once served in both World WarsB. was a man with a grateful heartC. spent his childhood in BangorD. joined the navy in the 1970s32. What does the author mainly tell us in the text?A. She expressed her thanks to a seagull that saved her life.B. She told us the story of how she made friends with a lady.C. She shared with us her memories of a man who fed seagulls.D. She talked about her childhood spent on the beach at Bangor.D★★★★☆A man pulls into the parking lot, turns off the engine, and sits for a minute feeling anxious about the next two hours. An important client (客户) has invited him to an open house in celebration of their new downtown office. He hates these things. He doesn’t know what to say, he doesn’t know anyone except the client, and he always feels like he’s trying not to look lost. He sinks deeper into the seat, making a tough decision about when to leave.Casual (随意的) conversation happens at least a dozen times a day. Yet for some of us, many occasions that involve small talk don’t ever get any easier, and may even increase anxiety and cause some people to feel on edge about social events, business lunches, and chance meetings with neighbors. Unfortunately, as we are suffering our own discomfort, our neighbors, friends, and workmates generally consider us distant, cold, and proud.If your conversations disappear almost as soon as they’ve begun, or if you’re an unwilling participant at social and business get-tog ethers, you’ll need some skills. Just get involved in a meaningful dialogue, try your best to introduce an interesting topic when there’s a silence, and develop businessfriendships whenever and wherever possible.Small talk isn’t the lowly stepchil d of real conversation. Without it, you rarely get to the real conversation. Small talk is the icebreaker that clears the way for a deeper conversation. People who excel at small talk are experts at making others feel included, valued, and comfortable. And that goes a long way toward furthering a business relationship, or making a friend.Don’t be fooled into thinking that all those other people you see who are smiling and happily chatting come by it naturally. Sure, some are natural-born talkers, b ut most have had to work at it. They’ve practiced, attended courses and read books. You don’t think so? Believe me, I know. I used to be a single-minded, unsociable engineer — no one has worse skills than I once did. I have become an expert by learning som e skills and then practicing them. It’s that simple.33. According to Paragraph 2, those who are poor at casual conversation _____.A. are sometimes considered unfriendlyB. believe small talk is a waste of timeC. have few chances to meet strangersD. feel comfortable when they are with neighbors34. What does the author stress in Paragraph 4?A. The important functions of small talk.B. The difficulties of starting a deep conversation.C. The advantages of small talk over real conversation.D. The differences between small talk and real conversation.35. In the last paragraph, the author mentions his own experience to _____.A. show a good method of improving social skillsB. prove some people are born brilliant speakersC. show his achievements in social activitiesD. prove conversation skills can be acquired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。

APresident George Washington and his wife, Martha, loved to celebrate the Christmas holidays. There were no trees to decorate or carols (颂歌) to sing. And few gifts were exchanged (交换). Instead, the Washingtons followed the Yule log tradition that came from England. Families would search the forest for a large oak tree, cut it down, and carry it home. The Yule log burned for the 12 days of Christmas (ending January 6) to bring luck for the year to come.Christmas was a big social event for the Washingtons. Friends and relatives traveled on horseback or by carriage to Mount Vernon in Virginia. Christmas meant fancy dinners and fancy parties — and even a few surprises!In 1787, George Washington had a surprise for his Christmas guests. The men didn’t notice anything unusual when they woke at dawn to join George and his dogs for a fox hunt. The women kept busy in the living room, playing card games and chatting with Mar tha. George’s grandchildren, Nelly and Washy, discovered the surprise as they played outside — a camel!Washington was very interested in rare animals. So when an entertainer showed up with an Arabian camel in nearby Alexandria, Virginia, Washington arranged to bring the animal to Mount Vernon for a day.Mrs. Washington had a few surprises of her own. Martha was a fine hostess and carefully chose the foods to be served during the holidays. The Christmas pie baked at Mount Vernon wasn’t made with pumpkins o r apples.Under the thick crust (酥皮) was a turkey. Stuffed inside the turkey were a goose, a duck, a partridge, and a pigeon — placed inside one another! Martha used four pounds of butter and a large amount of flour to make the crust. Her pie would last for weeks!Martha also prepared other surprises, such as ginger cookies, a decorated cake that looked like a hedgehog (刺猬), and plum pudding.But it was Martha’s Twelfth Night cake that had a surprise inside. Hidden in the batter (面糊) of sugar, flour, eggs, and fruit was a dried bean. Guests had to chew the cake carefully. The one who found the bean was named king or queen of the party.21. To celebrate Christmas, the Washingtons always _____.A. decorated the Christmas tree togetherB. prepared Christmas gifts for each otherC. had some exciting adventures in the forestD. lit an oak tree and kept it burning for 12 days22. In 1787, the camel that appeared in George’s house was _____.A. a gift for his grandchildrenB. borrowed from an entertainerC. his an d Martha’s new petD. once found in the forest nearby23. What can we learn about the Christmas pie Martha prepared?A. It was of great size.B. It was made with fruits.C. It was shaped like a bird.D. It was also called Twelfth Night cake.24. The text mainly introduces the Washingtons’ _____.A. Christmas giftsB. Christmas foodsC. Christmas surprisesD. Christmas holidaysBFireworks are exciting, but also hard to control. The Chinese artist Cai Guo-Qiang, though, has developed a way to harness the visual and physical power of fireworks to make art. He recently used them to create a burning sculpture that stretched (延伸) high into the sky. Guo-Qiang fittingly named the work Sky Ladder.Guo-Qiang built Sky Ladder by making a frame out of metal. He coated the frame with gunpowder, the main chemical material in fireworks.The artist tied one end of the frame to the ground and attached a large weather balloon to the other end. The balloon was filled with helium —a gas that’s lighter than air. When released, the balloon floated upward, pulling the top of the ladder 500 meters into the sky. That’s higher than the top of the Empire State Building!Guo-Qiang set fire to the bottom of the ladder, and the crackling (啪啪作响的) flames raced skyward up the frame. The sculpture burned for two-and-a-half minutes before its flames began to die out from the bottom up.Dealing with explosives (炸药) is challenging, and conditions had to be perfect for Guo-Qiang to achieve his desired effect. He first attempted Sky Ladder in 1994, but bad weather prevented him from successfully completing the work. Guo-Qiang put Sky Ladder aside so that he could work on other projects, perhaps most famously the fireworks display that opened the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games.Finally, after two more failed attempts, Guo-Qiang successfully sent his flaming ladder skyward last year. He presented Sky Ladder in his hometown, a quiet fishing village near Huiyu Island, Quanzhou. He offered the work as a gift to his 100-year-old grandmother, other family members, his friends, and his town.“Behind Sky Ladder lies a clear childhood dream of mine,” Guo-Qiang explains. “Despite all life’s twists and turns, I have always been determined to realize it. The ladder rose toward the morning sun, carrying hope. For me, this not only means a return, but also the start of a new journey.”25. What does the underlined word “harness” in Paragraph 1 probably mean?A. Control and use.B. Find and collect.C. Save and develop.D. Count and produce.26. The work Sky Ladder Cai Guo-Qiang built last year _____.A. proved to be a failureB. could fly free in the skyC. kept burning for 2.5 minutesD. was sent skyward in the evening27. Cai Guo-Qiang first imagined a ladder of fire when _____.A. he was a young boyB. he saw the Empire State BuildingC. the 2008 Olympic Games openedD. his grandmother had her 100th birthday28. What would be the best title for the text?A. Living with hopeB. A birthday giftC. Burning manD. Art on fireCSince she became a boss 20 years ago, Mary Davis was forced to develop her skills in communication and networking. Today, she says she can start a conversation with anyone.The easiest way to start a conversation, Davis said, is by finding a commonality between yourself and the other person. Davis’s advice on finding common ground shines through in her reliable icebreakers. Among them are “How do you know our host?” and “I’ve never been to one of these seminars(研讨会). Have you?” According to Davis, this one leads to a conversation no matter what the answer. “If they answer ‘No’, you can go on by saying something like, ‘Well, I heard that we can expect to hear about ...’ If they answer ‘Yes’, you can continue by as king for their opinion of the last seminar.” However, Davis said that sometimes she will just go up to someone, offer her hand, and say, “Hi, I’m Mary Davis. I don’t think we’ve met yet.”The most important thing to remember about having a conversation is to make eye contact and use the other person’s name, said Davis. “This makes the other person more likely to remember you.” While the other person is talking, Davis acts as though she is only interested in what they have to say. This philosophy (哲学) of making the other person the center of attention carries over to small talk.In order to practice talking with people, Davis suggests going to a public place. “It’s always easy to open with something you’ve observed from the other person, like ‘I couldn’t help but notice you’re reading the new John Grisham novel. How is it?’”For Davis, though, the one thing that has really been a big help to her in becoming an expert conversationalist is confidence in herself. “Some reasons people might be shy about entering into a conversation are that they are uncomfortable with themselves; they feel unworthy in comparison to others in the group; they don’t want to appear stupid, uninformed, or uneducated; or maybe they’ve had a bad experience in public that makes them hesitant (迟疑) now.”29. Davis’s icebreakers mentioned in Paragraph 2 are helpful in _____.A. expressing herselfB. opening a conversationC. making friends with othersD. being the center of attention30. Davis probably thinks a direct introduction during a conversation is _____.A. impoliteB. worthlessC. acceptableD. surprising31. To start a conversation, how will Davis react when the other person keeps talking about himself?A. Ask more about him.B. Speak louder than him.C. Change the topic of conversation.D. Break off the conversation politely.32. The last paragraph mainly explains _____.A. how Davis got interested in making conversationB. why it is important to develop confidence in yourselfC. how to overcome nervousness when speaking in publicD. why it is difficult for some people to start a conversationDBINGHAM REGIONAL COLLEGEInternational Students’ Orientation ProgrammeWhat is it?It is a course which will introduce you to the College and to Bingham.
