ASeptember is the month for fashion, with four international cities hosting Fashion Week. All eyes will turn to New York City, London, Milan and Paris this month to see which city puts on the best show.New YorkNew York Fashion Week, or NYFW, kicks off on September 5th and runs for approximately eight days. NYFW is considered the most commercial and casual of the four. It is also the only event to allow some fashion school students to participate, bringing a fresh look to the runway. LondonLondon Fashion Week (LFW)comes on the heels of NYFW, starting on September 13th and running through September 17th. Once considered a minor player among the Big Four, LFW can now command a list of big names as well as promising new designers.

This beautiful Italian city is home to some of the biggest fashion houses and designers in the fashion world, including Armani and Prada. Milan's fashion houses are known for offering glamorous (有魅力的),yet practical, options. ParisThe chaotic month of fashion makes its way to France as Paris Fashion Week begins onSeptember 23rd. Saving the best for last, Paris never fails to offer some of the most exciting shows of the season. World-famous labels like Chanel and Dior try to outdo one another with their latest designs. The word that best describes Paris Fashion Week is "elegant".21. Which city is likely to attract the new designersA. New YorkB. LondonC. MilanD. Paris22. When does Milan Fashion Week probably endA.

Each offers practical options.D. Each is open to school students.BFire Capt. Kevin Lloyd arrived at the scene of a car accident in West Point, Utah, north of Salt Lake City. A pregnant woman and her screaming 2-year-old daughter were trapped in the car.While his partner, Allen Hadley, was tending to the driver, Lloyd couldn't get the frightened girl to calm down. He saw she was holding several bottles of nail polish, and then he had a better idea. He asked her if she wanted to paint his nails. Soon she entirely lit up. At the same time, Hadley showed up to check on the scene.Lloyd had calmed her down and was in the process of getting his fingers painted. Then Hadley just put his hand in there. The girl began to color his nails pink. By this time, she was not only calm, but she was also happy.The girl's mother was not injured. She thanked them for helping herdaughter feel better, and they all chuckled, looking at the firefighters' nails, and took some photos.The firefighters brought the photos back to headquarters and showed them around. The department put them up on Facebook, and thousands of people responded, with many thanking the firefighters for going out of their way to calm down a frightened girl.Fire Chief Mark Becraft said he had been surprised at all the attention. He said he was proud of his firefighters, and added that he had known members of the department who had done many things that weren't part of the job.After the fact, Lloyd and Hadley had a small matter to tend to:the layers of polish on their nails. They bought a bottle of nail polish remover, and used almost all of it.24.Why was the 2-year-old girl frightenedA. She was caught in an accident.B. Her mother was badly injured.C. Her nails were hurt by the bottles.D. She was afraid of seeing firefighters.25. Which is closest in meaning to the underlined word "chuckled” in Paragraph 4A. Sighed.B. Shouted.C. Laughed.D. Hugged.26. Which of the following can best describe the two firefightersA. Knowledgeable.B. Comforting.C. Humorous.D. Courageous.27.

To introduce the little girl who likes polishing nails.D.To praise the two firefighters who learn to decorate nails.CIn spring, chickens start laying eggs again, bringing a welcome source of protein at winter’s end. So it’s no surprise that cultures around the world celebrate spring by honoring the egg.Some traditions are simple, like the red eggs that get baked into Greek Easter breads. Others upgrade the egg into a fancy art, like the heavily jewel-covered “eggs” that were favored by the Russians starting in the 19th century.One ancient form of egg art is egg painting, which comes to us from Ukraine. For centuries, Ukrainians have been drawing complicated patterns on eggs. Contemporary artists have followed this tradition and adapted the traditional methods to create eggs that speak to the anxieties of our age: Life is precious, and delicate. Eggs are, too.“There’s something about their delicate nature that crazily appeals to me,” says New Yorker cartoonist Roz Chast. Several years ago, she became interested in egg painting and learned the traditional Ukrainian technique to draw her very modern characters. “I’ve broken eggs atevery stage of the process — from the very beginning to the very, very end.”But there’s an appeal in that vulnerability. “There’s part of this sickening horror that I kind of like, the horror of knowing you’re walking on the edge with this, knowing that it could all fall apart at any second.” Chast’s designs, such as a worried man alone in a tiny boat, reflect that delicateness.Traditional Ukrainian decorated eggs also spoke to those fears. The complex and detailed patterns were believed to offer protection against evil.Egg painting art, dating back to 300 B.C., was later absorbed into the Christian church. The old symbols, however, still survive. A decorated egg with a bird on it, given to a young married couple, is a wish for children.A decorated egg thrown into the field would be a wish for a good harvest.28. What do we learn about the decorated “eggs” in RussiaA. They are shaped like jewel cases.B. They are heavily painted in red.C. They are favored as a form of art.D. They are valued by the rich.29. Why have contemporary artists continued the tradition of egg paintingA. Because eggs serve as a symbol of the coming of spring.B. Because eggs provide a source of protein in winter’s end.C. Because eggs provide a unique surface to paint on.D. Because eggs reflect the anxieties of people today.30. Which of the following best explains “vulnerability” underlined in paragraph 5A. Delicateness.B. Technique.C. Fear.D. Anxiety.31. What is the main idea of the textA. Egg painting art preserves traditional and popular symbols.B. Different cultures have different ways of honoring the egg.C. Ukrainian egg painting art appeals to contemporary artists.D. Egg painting art continues and develops in pace with time.DImagine you enter a car with no steering wheel, no brake or accelerator pedals (踏板). Under a voice-activated command, you say an address. “The fastest route will take us 15.3 minutes. Should I take it ” You say “yes” and you are on your way. The car responds and starts moving all by itself. All you have to do is to sit back and relax.How strange would it be if, one day in the future, everyone had such a car No crazy driving, no quarrels, no cutting in; traffic laws would be respected and driving much safer. On the other hand, imagine the cost savings for local police enforcement (强制执行) and town budgets without all those speeding and parking tickets.A new technology has the potential to change modern society thoroughly. There’s no question that self-driving vehicles could be anenormous benefit. The potential for safer cars means accident statistics would drop: some 94% of road accidents in the U.S. involve human error. Older drivers and visually-or physically-disabled people would gain a new level of freedom. Maintaining safe speeds and being electric, self-driving cars would sharply reduce pollution levels and dependency on non-renewable fuels. Roads would be quieter, people safer.But we must also consider the impact of the new technology on those who now depend on driving for their living. According to the U.S. Department of Labor, in May 2015 there were 505,560 registered school bus drivers. The American Trucking Association lists approximately 3.5 million professional truck drivers in the U.S. The companies developing self-driving vehicles should be partnering with state and federal authorities to offer retraining for this massive workforce, many of whom will be displaced by the new technology.New technologies will, and should, be developed. This is how society moves forward. However, progress can’t be one-sided. It is necessary for the companies and state agencies involved to consider the moral consequences of these potential changes to build a better future for all.32. What would be the effect of the wide use of driverless carsA. More policemen would inspect the streets.B. People would never feel angry about the traffic.C. It would save local governments a lot of money.D. Traffic regulations would be a thing of the past.33. How would the elderly and the disabled benefit from driverless carsA. They would get rid of air pollution.B. They could enjoy greater mobility.C. They would suffer no road accidents.D. They could go anywhere they want.34. What would be the negative effect of driverless carsA. The conflict between labor and management would sharpen.B. Many drivers would have to find new ways of earning a living.C. Drivers would have a hard time adapting to new road conditions.D. The gap between various departments of society would be widened.35. What does the author suggest businesses and the government doA. Enable everyone to benefit from new technologies.B. Keep pace with technological developments.C. Make new technologies affordable to everyone.D. Popularize the use of new technologies and devices.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。

S uddenly he saw a man jump into the dark river below.When Messina reached the river, the man was screaming for help, clearly unable to swim. If he had intended to kill himself that morning, he had now changed his mind. Other joggers also heard the man’s h elp. David Blauzvern and John Green jumped in. Messina joined them in the river.Just as the jumper was losing strength, Blauzvern grabbed him. The pair were about 30 yards from the seawall when Messina and Green caught up to them. By now, a crowd had gathered on land. “A rescue boat is on its way,” someone yelled to them. Treading water (踩水)was getting tougher by the minute. The jumper was deadweight in his rescuers’ arms. After ten minutes, they managed to get to the river’s edge. Fighting the current an d holding the man above the water quickly became exhausting, so they gave in to drifting while staying as close to the wall as they could.Fifteen minutes after the men had jumped into the river, the two-man rescue boat appeared. But because it couldn’t r isk getting too close to the seawall, the men had to swim out to it.Blauzvern remembers being pulled down just as someone in the boat grabbed onto the man, allowing Blauzvern to let go. I was completely out of energy at this point, he says.Somehow, he grasped a pole attached to the boat deck and hauled himself aboard. The men in the water pushed the jumper while the men in the boat pulled him up and, finally, to safety. Messina and Green then got themselves aboard, and within ten minutes, the group was back on land. The man they had saved was taken to the hospital for evaluation. Details on his condition have not been released.As for the rescuers, each of them was at work by 10:30 a. m. I was a bit late, admits Blauzvern, smiling. But I had a good excuse.24.

But he was not the only great master of dramatic writing to die in 1616, and he is certainly not the only writer to have left a lasting influence on theatre.While less known worldwide, Tang Xianzu is considered China’s greatest playwright and is highly spoken of in that country of ancient literary and dramatic traditions.Tang was born in 1550 in Linchuan, Jiangxi province, and pursued a low key career as an official until, in 1598 and aged 49, he retired to focused on writing. Unlike Shakespeare’s large body of plays, poems and sonnets, , Tang wrote only four major plays: The Purple Hairpin 《紫钗记》, The Peony Pavilion 《牡丹亭》, A Dream under a Southern Bough 《南柯记》, and Dream of Handan 《邯郸记》. The Peony Pavilion is considered Tangs masterpiece. The latter three are constructed around a dream narrative, a device through which Tang unlocked the emotional dimension of human desires and ambitions and explores human nature beyond the social and political restrictions of the time.Tang lived towards the end of the Ming dynasty (1368—1644) and the popularity of his works had a good reason. Similar to Shakespeare, his success rode the wave of a renaissance(文艺复兴)in theatre as an artistic practice. As in Shakespeare’s England, Tangs works became hugely popular in China too. During Tangs China, the way, in which play-texts were enjoyed and performed, changed. Kunqu opera, a form of musical drama, spread from southern China to become a symbol of Chinese culture. Combining northern tune and southern music, kunqu opera was known for its poetic language, music, dance movements and gestures. Tangs work benefitted greatly from the popularity of Kunqu opera, and his play-texts are considered kunqu classics.While Tang and Shakespeare lived a world away from each other, they share in common the humanity of their drama, their iconic, heroic figures, their love for poetic language, a lasting popularity and the anniversary during which we still celebrate them.28. What’s the best title of the text?A. Tang XianzuThe Shakespeare of ChinaB. Kunqu Opera a Symbol of Chinese CultureC. Tang Xianzu and His Work —The Peony PavilionD. Shakespeare and His Influence on Chinese Theatre29.

The underlined phrase in paragraph 4 probably means .A. led toB. called upC. set offD. benefited from31. How is the text developed?A. By analyzing data.B. By telling stories.C.

Hot water is stored in wells in the ground during summer to help heat the building in winter and cold water in the same way in the winter to cool the building in the warmer months. There are no radiators in The Edge—all the heating is provided by cables that run through the ceilings.

AWhen firefighters got to the six­story brick building on East 191st Street in Bronx early Saturday, they saw flames shooting from a top­floor window. Strange, sharp popping(爆音) sounds filled the air, a fire lieutenant said later. As a sixth­floor apartment turned into an inferno(火海), a woman who lived there ran downstairs with a small child. Neighbours said she told them her husband was still upstairs trying to get their two other children.Vale Dorsey, 66, who lives on the fifth floor, said he was awakened by his wife. An explosion above had showered shattered glass from a sixth­floor window. As they rushed downstairs, they were joined by other people, who were asking one another in Spanish and English what was happening.As the people fled, firefighters hurried up the stairs. When they reached the sixth floor, the fire lieutenant, William Kearns, Firefighter Christopher O'Brien and others met a wall of flames coming from the kitchen just inside the door of theburning apartment. Firefighter Rodney Littlejohn used a fire extinguisher to try to keep the fire from spreading, and the heat from the kitchen partly melted his plastics eye shield.While Firefighter Littlejohn sprayed, Firefighter O'Brien bent under the flames. There about 10 feet into the apartment, he found the father of the three children lying in a hallway.Firefighters pulled him from the burning apartment. Lieutenant Kearns and a firefighter from Rescue 3 started going through the apartment room by room, feeling their way through the smoke. In a bedroom, the firefighter from Rescue 3 found a 3­year­old in a bed shaped like a race car. Moments later, Lieutenant Kearns found a 1­year­old in a crib.The two children and their father were brought to hospital, fire officials said, where the man was listed in critical condition and the children were in critical but stable condition.On Saturday the apartment where the fire started was badly burned. Inside his apartment on the fifth floor, Mr. Dorsey said, “I was happy that everybody was safe. We got lucky.”21.What do we know about Vale Dorsey?A.He was the first to report the fire accident to the fire department.B.He lives on the floor below the apartment that caught fire.C.His apartment was also badly burned but he escaped from the fire.D.He woke up his wife and told her about the strange, sharp popping sounds.22.From what part of the apartment did the flames come that the firefighters met?A.The hallway. B.The store room.C.One of the bedrooms. D.The kitchen.23.Who was last found in the burning apartment according to the passage?A.The 1­year­old child.B.The 3­year­old child.C.The mother of the three children.D.The father of the three children.24.We learn from the passage that ________.A.the children were in critical but stable condition after the fire accident B.there about 10 feet into the apartment Kearns found the mother of the three childrenC.Christopher O'Brien used a fire extinguisher to try to keep the fire fromspreadingD.it was Rodney Littlejohn that found the 4­year­old in a bed shaped like a race carBCity Year UK is founded on the belief that young people can change the world. As“near peer(同等的人)” role models and tutors, our volunteers support pupils from disadvantaged backgrounds to enjoy themselves and succeed at school. But that's not all. Over the course of their City Year, they also have the opportunity to develop as leaders, with the passion, values, experience and skills to go on to lead change in their communities long after their year of service.Our GoalOur mission is to inspire the role models to help children in need succeed in school:* We give our volunteers the training and personal development they need to become powerful and effective leaders.* We show the power of individual action to drive collective impact.Our ValuesPROGRESSION: we are devoted to the personal and professional development of all.ACTION: we don't just talk, we do. We are always ready.EXCELLENCE: we struggle for nothing less, no matter where we start.Our Future PlansWe believe that cumulative (累积的)effect of the work of many devoted people and organizations can have a great impact. We are committed to increasing opportunities for young people to “act” and to create more hope.Our ambition is that, by 2020, 10 years after launching in the UK, we will have at least 500 young people a year serving around 40, 000 children across five cities.Our HistoryClick here for further information about our history, development and achievement.25.Who will probably benefit from City Year UK?A.Young people hoping to build up their body.B.School kids lacking good living conditions or education.C.Teachers who need professional and personal training.D.Leaders trying to make great changes in their communities.26.What will you do if you work for City Year UK?A.Help young people to stand out with hope.B.Manage to raise education funds for five cities.C.Take in more volunteers to enlarge the community.D.Do some housework for old and disabled people.27.The underlined word “they ”in Para. 1 refers to “________”.A.the leaders B.the pupilsC.the volunteers D.the researchers28.What type of writing is this passage?A.A news report. B.An exhibition guide.C.An official document. D.An organization instruction.CYou may not think it very much—a used ice cream tub(纸杯) on the beach, a cigarette butt in the sand. But these little pieces of litter amount to around 8.8 million tons of trash in the world's oceans, poisoning and choking sealife, according to figures from the World Wildlife Foundation.Now, in a set of images titled The Price Of Convenience by Waters has shown the destroying effects that casual littering has on creatures. In one image called “your convenience is their extinction”, a sea turtle's shell is hollowed out(掏空) and filled with banana skins, soda cans, and other debris.“It is shocking the amount of trash in the oceans,” Waters, 23, said, describing his project which he has begun a campaign to the WWF. “When you leave litter on the beach,you are treating the ocean like a trash can. When you throw trash over the side of a boat, you're treating the ocean like a trash can. And when you leave litter at a beach festival or party, it's the same.Obviously it would be impossible to clean the oceans but I felt I had to try something.”Waters explained that he, like many other Westerners, has always been aware of environmental concerns but did not begin to do something about i.The turning point came as he visited Malaysia with his girlfriend last year. He reached the shore to find piles of trash.But it was beautiful, the smell of the air, of the ocean.I had a strong feeling for it after I started researching trash in the ocean. A few months later, he came across the video of a sea turtle in obvious agony(痛苦) with a drinking straw stuck up its nostrils(鼻孔).That video inspired the first of Waters' three images. “Sea turtles are such gentle creatures. I felt sick watching that video. Trash left on a beach by humans caused so much pain and suffering.These animals don't have voices so we've got to speak up for them.” he added.Waters has not yet received a response from WWF regarding his images.For now, he says, he is inspired to develop more campaigns that raise awareness of environmental concerns.29.What can be found in the sea turtle's shell according to the passage?A.Some ice cream.
