Top Cities to Visit in Italy
Venice
Venice, a unique city built over the water, is one of Italy's most beautiful and romantic cities. The heart of Venice is Piazza San Marco with its magnificent church, Saint Mark's Basilica. Wandering along Venice's canals and getting lost in its narrow streets must be appealing. Venice is in the northeast of Italy and historically was a bridge between East and West—its architecture retains a Byzantine feel not really found elsewhere in Italy.
Milan
Milan, one of Europe's wealthiest cities, is known for stylish shops, galleries, and restaurants. It also has a rich artistic and cultural heritage. Its Gothic Duomo, with its beautiful marble facade(大理石外墙), is magnificent, Da Vinci's painting The Last Supper, which is in Santa Maria Delle Grazie, is one of Milan's top attractions. La Scala is one of the world's most famous opera houses.
Naples
Naples is one of Italy's most lively cities. It lies on the coast south of Rome and is the most important city in southern Italy. Naples retains much of its Baroque character and is a starting point for trips to Pompeii, Herculaneum, and the Amalfi Coast. It holds many historical and artistic treasures, and is famous for its pizza and desserts!
Bologna
Bologna is known for its beauty, wealth and cuisine. Its flat streets are lined with arcades (拱廊), making it a good walking city in every kind of weather. Bologna is the biggest city in northern Italy's Emilia-Romagna region and its Piazza Maggiore is one of the biggest squares in Europe.
Even among Italians, it's considered the culinary capital of the country.

It is a windy day. Glenn Gould has got a coffee cup sitting on the piano top and is working on
a music written by Bach. As he plays, he gets so totally lost in the music that suddenly, he stands up, and walks in what looks like a dream to the window.
There’s a total silence. Then the Bach flows out of him. He’s still playing, but in his head. Then he turns, wanders back, sits down on a low chair in front of the piano and picks up right where his voice left off, but now with new energy.
Gould, the greatest interpreter of Bach, is a strange man. He doesn’t like to practise. Instead, he’ll prepare for concerts mentally, running the piece over and over and playing with imaginary fingers.
Gould, for some reasons, reminds me of Michael Jordan playing basketball or Etta James singing the blues: There’s a concentration that’s so deep that it feels special, like a kind of “flow”.
“When you are in it, you lose track of everything except what you’re doing,” writes neuroscientist Daniel Levitin. “There was a surgeon, who wasn’t aware that the roof of his operating room had collapsed until he was done with the surgery. In this state, what you think becomes what you do. You get blissfully lost in an activity, forgetting time, yourselves and your problems.”
How does one get there? That’s still a mystery. Practice is important. Strong will matters. Talent helps. When you find your “flow”, your brain changes. Sex, hunger and thirst matter less. You are chemically released and can now wander far and wide. Yes, you have no idea where you are or how this is happening. But once you find your “flow”, it’s one of the most wonderful experiences ever.
When I watch Glenn Gould walking back to his piano, I see a man living in heaven, if there is one.
4. How does Glenn Gould usually prepare for concerts?
A. By drinking coffee to get more energy.
B. By running the pieces in his head first.
C. By practising over and over on the piano.
D. By doing exercise in his sweet dreams.
5. Which of the following best describes being in the state of “flow”?
A. Encouraged.
B. Worried.
C. Absorbed.
D. Absent-minded.
6. What does the underlined word “blissfully” in paragraph 5 mean?
A. Happily.
B. Occasionally.
C. Unnecessarily.
D. Hardly.
7. What is less likely to help us find our “flow”?
A. Practice.
B. Will.
C. Talent.
D. Desire.

根据第三段“Instead, he’ll prepare for concerts mentally, running the piece over and over and playing with imaginary fingers（相反，他会在心理上为音乐会做准备，一遍又一遍地演奏乐曲，用想象中的手指演奏）”可知，演出前，Glenn Gould喜欢在大脑里一遍又一遍地练习，故选B项。

5．〖解析〗推理判断题。

根据第四段“There’s a concentration that’s so deep that it feels special, like a kind of “flow”（有一种深深的专注感，感觉很特别，就像一种“流动”）”及第五段“When you are in it, you lose track of everything except what you’re doing（当你置身其中时，你会忘记一切，除了你在做什么）”可推断，处于“flow”状态的人，一定是全神贯注的。

故选C项。

6．〖解析〗词义猜测题，根据上文“In this state, what you think becomes what you do（在这种状态下，你所想的变成了你所做的）”画线词后“forgetting time, yourselves and your problems（忘记时间，忘记你自己和你的问题）”可推断，这种状态下你会变得非常快乐。

故选A项。

7．〖解析〗细节理解题。

根据倒数第二段“Practice is important. Strong will matters. Talent helps. When you find your “flow”, your brain changes. Sex, hunger and thirst matter less（实践很重要。

坚强的意志很重要。

天赋有帮助。

当你发现自己的“流动”时，你的大脑就会发生变化。

性别、饥饿和欲望无关紧要）”可知，practice，strong will和talent帮助我们找到“流动”的状态。

没有涉及D选项，故选D项。

C
Over the course of more than 250 years, the US Postal Service has gone through many changes, including switching its focus from newspapers to package delivery service.
In the early 1830s，the Postal Service focused on delivering newspapers to keep Americans informed and connected. To keep newspaper subscriptions cheap and accessible, the Postal Service charged high prices for letter postage as much as a full-day’s wages. In order to help the expansion of the passenger transportation network in the new nation, the agency often shared the letter delivery with stagecoach lines. Later, it did the same for private steamboats and railroads, even airlines But the competition for the letter delivery became so fierce that a wave of laws between 1845 and 1851 made the Postal Service the only letter-carrier and set aside an annual budget to support
the agency. Helped by lowered rates, letters soon became the agency’s main business.
In 1863, the Postal Service began to experiment with home delivery, instead of just carrying letters from post office to post office. By the dawn of the 20th century, even remote farmers’ letters were dropped into their mailboxes. Since then, home delivery has become a “universal public service (UPS)” that every American deserves to receive at a low price.
By the early 20th century, the Postal Service had set a four-pound limit on mail: Anything heavier was supposed to be left to private companies. But the four largest private carriers secretly cooperated to charge confusing and often terribly high rates. In 1913, the Postal Service eventually took the parcel (包裹) service away from the private carriers.
Now the Postal Service’s only growing business is package delivery fed by the online shopping addictions. Since it is required by law to visit every household six days a week, the Postal Service now offers cheap rates to private companies like Amazon and FedEx to deliver their goods to our doorsteps. However, most Americans think that it is unfair to use taxpayer’s money to help such big private companies to deliver their goods.
8. What can we learn from the second paragraph?
A. Letter delivery was once a very profitable business.
B. The US was well connected by airlines in the 1820s.
C. The Postal Service charged high prices for newspapers.
D. In the 1830s. Americans had free access to newspapers.
9. What was the Postal Service’s main business in the 1850s?
A. Goods transportation.
B. Letter delivery.
C. Newspaper subscriptions.
D. Parcel services.
10. Why is it unfair for private companies to use the Postal Service to deliver their goods?
A. The private companies often charge terribly high rates.
B. The online-shoppers cannot receive their parcels on time.
C. The Postal Service usually leaves parcels in the local post offices.
D. The “UPS” is originally designed for non-commercial home delivery.
11. What is the best title for the text?
A. The Problems of the US Postal Service
B. The Postal Service’s Roles in the US History
C. A Brief History of the US Postal Service
D. The Main Functions of the US Postal Service
【语篇解读】本文是一篇说明文。

文章简要介绍了美国邮政的发展历程。

〖答案〗8. A 9. B 10. D 11. C
8．〖解析〗推理判断题，根据第二段“To keep newspaper subscriptions cheap and accessible，the Postal Service charged high prices for letter postage—as much as a full—day’s wages（为了保持报纸订阅的便宜和方便，邮政局对信件邮费收取了相当于一整天工资的高价。

）”可推断，当时的邮件投递业务应该很赚钱。

故选A项。

9．〖解析〗细节理解题，根据第三段“Helped by lowered rates，letters soon became the agency’s main business（由于利率降低，信件很快成为该机构的主要业务）”可知，the Postal Service的主要业务是信件。

故选B项。

10．〖解析〗推理判断题，根据第四段中“Since then, home delivery has become a “universal public service (UPS)” that every American deserves to receive at a low price（从那时起，送货上门已成为每个美国人都应该以低廉的价格获得的“通用公共服务（UPS）”）”及第六段“the Postal Service now offers cheap rates to private companies like Amazon and FedEx to deliver their goods to our doorsteps（邮政服务现在向像亚马逊和联邦快递这样的私营公司提供便宜的价格，让他们把货物送到我们的门口）”可推断，UPS的初衷是为私人提供低价投递服务的，现在却被大公司钻了空子，有点“劫贫济富”的味道。

故选D项。

11．〖解析〗标题判断题。

根据第一段“Over the course of more than 250 years, the US Postal Service has gone through many changes, including switching its focus from newspapers to package delivery service.”（在250多年的历程中，美国邮政服务经历了许多变化，包括将重心从报纸转向包裹递送服务。

）以及下文作者主要介绍了美国邮政创建的目的、业务变化及其现状。

所以短文的最佳标题为“美国邮政的发展历程”。

故选C项。

D
A satellite is best understood as an object that has only one force acting on it gravity. Technically speaking, anything that crosses the Karman Line at an altitude of 100km is considered a satellite in space.
However, a satellite needs to be going fast at least 8km a second to avoid falling back down to the earth immediately. If a satellite is traveling fast enough, it will constantly “fall” toward the ball-shaped earth. It means that the satellite will fall around the earth instead of crashing back on the
surface.
Here are several accepted orbits around the earth. One is called low-earth-orbit, which extends from about 160 to 2,000km. This is the orbit where the International Space Station and the Chinese Space Station orbit and where the spaceships usually do their work. In fact, all human missions, except for the Apollo and Chang’e flights to the moon, took place in this orbit. Most satellites also work in this orbit.
Geosynchronous (与地球同步的) orbit is the best spot for communication satellites to use, however. This is an orbit above the earth’s equator (赤道) at an altitude of 35,786km. At this altitude, the rate of "fall" around the earth is about the same as the earth’s rotation (自转), which allows the satellite to stay above the same spot on the earth almost constantly. The satellite thus keeps permanent connections with towers on the ground and allows for reliable communication.
While some satellites are best used around the equator, others are better suited to more polar orbits. Examples of polar-orbiting satellites include weather satellites, resource satellites and military satellites. Polar-orbiting satellites are necessary because they can help scientists compare images from the same season over several years and monitor changes over time.
12. What keeps a satellite from falling to the earth?
A. Its rotation.
B. Its orbit.
C. Its speed.
D. Its height.
13. What can we say about the Chinese Space Station?
A. It can be considered a satellite.
B. It is below the Karman Line.
C. It is circling the earth at 7km/s.
D. It has escaped the force of gravity.
14. Which satellites are more suitable for Geosynchronous orbit?
A. Weather satellites.
B. Military satellites.
C. Resource satellites.
D. Communication satellites.
15. What is the advantage of a polar-orbiting satellite?
A. Gathering necessary equator data.
B. Comparing seasonal changes.
C. Providing precise weather forecast.
D. Providing better telephone signals

得很快——至少每秒8公里——才能避免立即坠落地球。

)”可知，速度是保证卫星不掉下来的必要条件。

故选C项。

13．〖解析〗推理判断题。

根据第一段最后一句“Technically speaking, anything that crosses the Karman Line at an altitude of 100km is considered a satellite in space.(严格来讲，任何在100公里高度越过卡门线的物体都被认为是太空中的卫星。

)”及第三段第二、三句“One is called low-earth-orbit，which extends from about160 to 2,000km. This is the orbit where the International Space Station and the Chinese Space Station orbit and where the spaceships usually do their work.(其中一个被称为近地轨道，从160公里延伸到2000公里。

这是国际空间站和中国空间站的轨道，宇宙飞船通常在这里工作。

)”可推断，中国空间站可以被看作是一颗卫星。

故选A项。

14．〖解析〗细节理解题。

根据第四段第一句“Geosynchronous orbit is the best spot for communication satellites to use, however.(然而，地球同步轨道是通信卫星使用的最佳地点。

)”可知，通信卫星更适合地球同步轨道。

故选D项。

15．〖解析〗细节理解题。

根据最后一段最后一句“Polar-orbiting satellites are necessary because they can help scientists compare images from the same season over several years and monitor changes over time.(极地轨道卫星是必要的，因为它们可以帮助科学家比较几年来同一季节的图像，并监测随着变化。

)”可知，这些极地轨道卫星有助于对比分析不同季节的改变。

故选B项。

〖答案〗41. was founded 42. built 43. gardens 44. in 45. finest 46. originally 47. cultural 48. to be 49. that##which 50. the
41．〖解析〗考查时态语态。

句意：苏州古典园林的历史可以追溯到公元前6世纪，当时苏州是吴国的首都。

根据时间状语the 6th century BC可知，此处用一般过去时，又因为city与found之间是被动关系，故用被动语态，谓语用单数。

故填was founded。

42．〖解析〗考查非谓语动词。

句意：受吴国国王建造的皇家狩猎花园的启发，私人花园在4世纪左右开始出现，最终在18世纪达到顶峰。

分析该句成分可知，gardens与build 之间存在逻辑上的动宾关系，故用过去分词built，作后置定语。

故填built。

43．〖解析〗考查名词复数。

句意：受吴国国王建造的皇家狩猎花园的启发，私人花园在4世纪左右开始出现，最终在18世纪达到顶峰。

garden为可数名词，根据下文可知，私家园林数量众多，故此处用所给名词的复数形式。

故填gardens。

44．〖解析〗考查介词。

句意：时至今日，现存50多座园林，其中9座被认为是中国“山水”园林的最佳象征。

in existence意为“存在”，为固定短语。

故填in。

45．〖解析〗考查形容词最高级。

句意：时至今日，现存50多座园林，其中9座被认为是中国“山水”园林的最佳象征。

根据空前的nine of which可知，指在所有的园林中，这九座是最好的，应用fine的最高级。

故填finest。

46．〖解析〗考查副词。

句意：受中国传统山水画中写意诗意风格的影响，它们以精湛的工艺、优雅的艺术和丰富的文化内涵相结合而著称。

分析该句成分可知，所填词在此处修饰过去分词seen，作状语，故用所给形容词的副词形式originally。

故填originally。

47．〖解析〗考查形容词。

句意：受中国传统山水画中写意诗意风格的影响，它们以精湛的工艺、优雅的艺术和丰富的文化内涵相结合而著称。

修饰meanings，作定语，应用形容词cultural。

故填cultural。

48．〖解析〗考查非谓语动词。

句意：苏州古典园林囿于单一空间，意在反映自然世界。

短语be intended to do意为“意在做某事”，为固定搭配。

故填to be。

49．〖解析〗考查定语从句。

句意：那些受自然概念启发而不受其限制的独特设计，对东西方园林的发展都产生了巨大的影响。

分析该句结构可知，空项引导的是一个限制性定语从句，从句中缺少主语，且先行词为designs，指物，故用关系代词that或which。

故填that/which。

50．〖解析〗考查冠词。

句意：那些受自然概念启发而不受其限制的独特设计，对东西方园林的发展都产生了巨大的影响。

development后面有介词短语作修饰，特指东西方园林的发展，故与定冠词the连用。

故填the。

Hi, everyone! I’m glad to stand here to talk about how we can do for our school. We all know that a small act is going to makes a big difference. First of all, we can easily make our school more beautifully. For example, every one of them can take care of a tree or to organize a thorough cleaning in the school. We can pick up rubbishes on the floor or put it into the trash cans. In the end, never。
