balance between my ambition and the expectation from my parents who were not rich...But what I feared most of myself at your age was not poverty,but failure.The fact that you are graduating from Harvard suggests that you know little about failure,you might be driven by a fear of failure quite as much as a desire for success.Steve Jobs,Stanford UniversitySometimes life’s going to hit you in the head with a brick.Don’of your life,and the only way to be truly satisfied is to do what you believe is great work,and the only way to do great work is to love what you do.If you haven’t found it

deaths could be avoided according to the scientists.For the health of the planet,they say the same diet will reduce (减少) greenhouse gases and save more land,water and animals.This new food plan is the result of a three-year project organized by The Lancet health journal.Tim Lang,a professor at Britain’s University of London.He said,“The food we eat and how we produce it decide the health of people and the planet.”Lang added,“The world’s population is expected to grow to 10 billion people by 2050.If we want to feed everyone,we all need to change what we eat and the way we eat by improving food production and reducing food waste.”So,what do you eat on the “planetary health”diet?The scientists who created the “planetary health”diet say it is largely plant-based but still has a little milk,fish and meat.The diet calls for cutting down red meat and sugar by 50 percent and increasing nuts,fruits,and vegetable.Walter Willet of Harvard University in the United States also talked about the “planetary health”diet.He said,“More than 800 million people around the world do not get enough food while many more people have very unhealthy diets.”The scientists think it difficult to reach their aim.But for them,doing nothing is also not a choice.Willet said,“If we can’t make the best diet,it’s better to try and get as close as we can.”12.What decides the health of people and the planet according to Tim Lang?A.The taste of the food.B.The number of population.C.The climate and our living conditions.D.The food we eat and the way we produce it.13.What does the “planetary health”diet mainly contain?k.B.Meat.C.Sugar.D.Plants.14.What do scientists say about the “planetary health”diet?A.It is very easy to produce it.B.It is better to try their best to make it.C.It is better to do nothing than fail.D.It is impossible to make it.15.What is the best title for the text?A.Humans Health Is Very Important.B.Many People don’t Get Enough Food.C.A New Kind of Diet may Save the

Mine came recently when my wife and I visited our son in Los Angeles.“Dad, don’t leave the water running when you brush your teeth,” Nathaniel admonished on our first night. All right, I figured, this is California, where drought (干旱) is a concern. But then more followed. Not to leave my awkward walking shoes sitting out, and did I even need such ugly footwear? Don’t wear a neck warmer when walking the dogs in the morning — it will warm up when we get to the park. And do you have to take a shower before we drive to Topanga?At the beginning, I wondered how I raised such a bossy child. But I recalled my own words when he was young: “Someday, you’ll have your own home and can live however you want. Until then, do as we say.” Now, it was payback time.I remembered being angry at my own father’s commands growing up, how he always tidied my desk or came into my room at dusk to close the windows. And so I smilingly followed Nathaniel’s nagging (唠叨).On our last afternoon, we were walking along ElMatador Beach and hit an extended patch of rocks — clearly the end of the line, I thought. Nathaniel wouldn’t hear of it and encouraged me to walk across one largest one to the next, patiently telling me where to place my arthritic (关节炎的) feet and hands as ocean waves came close. I was terrified, but after a couple hundred yards we eventually reached a fresh sandy beach.“You did it! I’m really proud,” he said, smiling, as if I’d just learned to ride a bike. It was then that I knew for sure that the son also rises to fatherhood.4.What does the underlined word “admonished” in paragraph 2mean?A.Warned gently but firmly B.Explained loudly but lovingly.C.Announced officially and clearly.D.Inspired deeply and indirectly.5.Why did the author refer to his father?A.For memory.B.For reference.C.For encouragement.D.For comparison. 6.What was the writer’s attitude towards his son at last?A.Annoyed.B.Regretful.C.Appreciative.D.Disapproving. 7.What might be the best tile of the passage?A.The Role Switch: Parent to PupilB.The Bossy Son: Nathaniel’s TakeoverC.The Beach Challenge: Crossing the RocksD.The Power of Words: Nagging to ChangeThere are millions — possibly billions — of ponds (池塘).Yet for a century or so, they are poorly understood and scientists have paid them very little attention. This neglect (忽视) might not have mattered if it were not for increasing evidence that ponds are extremely important habitats for wildlife.Ponds are being shown more bio-diverse than rivers or lakes. Interestingly, this seems to be partly due to the small size of ponds, which allows them to have a wide range of conditions. The community in a pond with clear water will be very different to that in a nearby seasonal pond made cloudy by farm animals. Ponds show far greater variation than rivers and streams, as flowing water tends to equalize water chemistry.So why have we ignored such a vital part of the natural world? A key reason appears to be the bias (偏见) we humans have where we assume that if something is small, it can’t be all that important. Rather than study ponds, scientists in the past typically headed for the largest lake or river they could find.Most of us also devalue ponds because we assume they are artificial habitats: we look at the human-made examples around us and don’t realize that these waters have a deeply ancient origin. In our new book Ponds, Pools and Puddles, we show that ponds have clearly existed on Earth as long as there has been land and water and the geological record shows they have been a constantpresence.Now, views are taking on new shapes. Last year, the Ramsar Convention, an international agreement, introduced a proposal on small wetlands, including ponds, giving crucial recognition to them. And the European Union-funded PONDER FUL project is gathering data on Europe’s ponds.In a world where freshwater faces big challenges, creating and protecting ponds provides a ray of hope: a piece of natural ecological (生态的) engineering we can easily achieve to help support one of the most threatened bits of the environment.8.What may contribute to the biodiversity of ponds?A.The nearby animals.B.The constant temperature water.C.Their diverse conditions.D.Their regularly changing conditions. 9.What caused ponds to be neglected?A.People’s love for nature.B.Insufficient ponds for research.C.People’s mistaken belief of ponds.D.Lacking scientific research methods. 10.Why is “PONDERFUL project” mentioned?A.To promote the Ramsar Convention.B.To prepare for the research on pondsC.To highlight the importance of small wetlands.D.To show the changing attitudes towards ponds.11.What can we conclude from the last paragraph?A.Penny wise, pound foolish.B.A small key opens a big door.C.Small streams make great rivers D.A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush.We all know how it feels to get lost in a great book. Sometimes the characters and emotions can seem as real as those of our everyday lives, But what’s happening in our brains as we dive into those pages?A team led by Leila Wehbe and Tom Mitchell of Carnegie Mellon University’s machine learning department has provided answers to the question.The researchers gathered a group of 8 volunteers, and recorded their brain activity in an fMRI scanner(扫描仪) as they read Chapter 9 of Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone for 45minutes. Then, they put the volunteers’ fMRI data into a computer program they’d written. They’d designed the program to look for patterns of brain activity that appeared when the volunteers read certain words, particular characters’ names and other features of the story—a total of 195 different “story features”.When the researchers used all the 195 story features, the program was able to guess which passage was being read with an accuracy of 74 percent. Finally, the researchers repeated the test at every brain region, which allowed them to figure out which brain regions are processing which types of information.They find that our brains run individual words through the first round of processing in the visual cortex—the brain area that processes all visual input—and through higher-level processing areas like the left inferior frontal gyrus (左侧额下回). When the volunteers read descriptions of physical movement in the story, the descriptions adjusted the activity into the regions involved in sensing real-world movement. A variety of characters, meanwhile, were correlated with the activity patterns in the right posterior superior region (脑右后上区域). This all confirm the existence of what researchers call the “protagonist’s perspective(主人公视角)interpreter network(PPIN)”, a network of brain regions that enable us to “become” the protagonist of the story we’re reading.“We maybe not only toward a more accurate rate neural(神经的)model of language processing, but also toward a clearer understanding of how and why it can go wrong,” We h be said. Someday it may help us design individually tailored neurological treatments for reading disorders. And many people may in the future find it easier to get lost in the pages of a good book. 12.How was the study carried out?A.By using an fMRI scanner.B.By reading the book and telling feelings.C.By tracking the brain’s response to a story.D.By processing the book with a program.13.Why did the researchers repeat the test at every brain region?A.To test its effect.B.To improve the program prediction.C.To confirm “story features”.D.To identify brain’s processing regions. 14.What can we know about the findings of the study in paragraph 5?A.Readers can experience the story through PPIN.B.Higher-level processing areas are for storing words.C.Physical movements are processed in the inferior frontal gyrus.D.Characters are associated with the left posterior superior region.15.What is a possible application of the study?A.Promoting good reading standards.B.Improving humans intelligence.C.Curing people’s reading disorders.D.Mastering learning skills easier.Unaided, we can’t do anything without our feet. So why, when our quality of life is directly related to being active, do many of us ignore these two vital parts of our body?16 In 2021, a study over arise in foot tissues and how poor foot health affects everything from physical activity to the overall health of able-bodied people was conducted. “Foot problems can reduce quality of life, lead to loss of balance, make it difficult to put on shoes and increase the risk of falling,” the authors wrote in the journal Scientific Reports. Meanwhile, a 2017 study, also in Spain, of able-bodied university students confirmed this too. 17 It increased their risk of being socially cutoff.If foot pain limits your activity a and lasts more than a week, says Paul Langer, a sports-medicine podiatrist (足疗医生), it’s time to see a doctor for foot treatment. 18 They’re like the base of the Tower of Pisa. When they’re off, the tower leans (倾斜).Therefore, keeping our foot happy is rather critical. 19 Experts say every move we make creates a chain reaction in our muscles, and joints.The foot is the driver of all movement. 20 If afoot doesn’t work normally, it can drive everything up the chain to be of disfunction, too. The key to a healthy foot is strength and mobility through the hips (臀部). Therefore our feet need help from their friends above to keep them working properly.A.Spanish scientists expressed concern.B.All of this can affect activities of daily living.C.In fact, seeking help from experts is the best way.D.Poor foot health prevented them from being physically active.E.Taking care of your feet sometimes begins elsewhere in your body.F.When the foot hits the ground, everything else in the body changes.G.If the feet aren’t performing properly, they throw everything else off.二、完形填空It was one of my favourite parts of the day, when I walked my husky, Max, around our neighbourhood.Though wolf-like in 21 , he was a teddy bear at heart.

北京市海淀区2023-2024学年高一下学期期末考试英语试题
北京市海淀区2023-2024学年高一下学期期末考试英语试题一、完形填空It was a Saturday afternoon when I was just ten. My grandmother entered the dining room with the mail and placed it by my mother, who 1 the thin envelope rather cautiously, paused and then tossed it into the wastepaper basket.“You can at least open it,” my grandmother said.“I don’t want to see one more 2 letter. Period!” my mother answered.“Poor Mommy,” I said. “Don’t feel bad. You’re a good writer.” But the words of a ten-year-old, while appreciated, were lost in the thick air of adult 3 that filled the room.Ignoring my mother’s response, my grandmother turned the basket over and pulled out the envelope. She 4 open the letter and read it silently. My heart was racing with expectation as she suddenly straightened up and charged at her daughter, pushing the letter under my mother’s nose. “There! There!”“Please, Mother,” my mother said sadly as she pushed the letter away.“Read it!” my grandmother pushed it back. “It’s an 5 !”My mother stopped. She looked first at me, then at my grandmother. Slowly, she read the words: “We are 6 to inform you...”I watched her face turn from 7 to joy. She jumped up and hugged my grandmother, whose face was now shining as if saying 8 I knew you would succeed.Now, years later, whenever I am hesitant to open my own letters in fear of rejection (拒绝), I can feel my mother and grandmother reach for the basket, 9 me to open them. And I also have my son to cheer me up. “Don’t worry, Mommy. You’re a good writer.” I know it no longer matters whether the mail holds an acceptance or a rejection, for I have learned about the power of 10 support.1.A.eyed B.handed C.opened D.received 2.A.invitation B.rejection C.explanation D.recommendation 3.A.anger B.concern C.confusion D.tension4.A.cut B.tore C.forced D.broke5.A.award B.apology C.acceptance D.advertisement 6.A.relieved B.regretful C.happy D.sad 7.A.disbelief B.dissatisfaction C.disagreement D.disappointment 8.A.calmly B.gratefully C.patiently D.proudly 9.A.encouraging B.allowing C.reminding D.instructing 10.A.unchangeable B.unconditional C.unforgettable D.unintentional二、语法填空阅读下列短文,根据短文内容填空。
山东省日照市2023-2024学年高一下学期期末考试英语试题
山东省日照市2023-2024学年高一下学期期末考试英语试题一、阅读理解A river cruise (乘船游览) is an ideal opportunity to explore cities and landscapes beyond the ocean’s reach, while you are enjoying fine dining and exceptional service of waterways.

They call this their “Qomolangma selfie”. To get it, more than a few people have risked everything and tragically, many have died during the climb, with their precious images still locked in their cameras.But as a professional climber who’s spent the past. two decades pursuing summits(顶峰) all over the world, I had refused the idea of an expedition(探险) to Mount Qomolangma. The mountain seemed to represent the opposite of everything that I loved and respected about climbing.The first mountain I attempted to climb was just a 500-foot cliff. I, together with a friend managed to make our way a couple hundred feet up the nearly vertical(垂直) wall to the. safety of a small ledge. Sitting side by side, we watched the sun dip toward the horizon, amazed by what we had done and wondered how we were going to get down. The thrill of doing something most people wouldn’t consider, the discovery of the view at the top and the bond my friend and I shared all came to define the meaning of what I have been seeking in the mountain s ever since.I would have never changed my mind, were it not for an old friend and his devotion to one of mountaineering’s greatest mysteries—whether Mallory, a legendary British climber, might have reached the top in 1924—nearly 30 years before Edmund Hillary and Tensing Norgay. The camera he likely carried had never been found. That’s how I found myself searching for a long-lost climber and, just maybe, history’s first highest point selfie.My expedition didn’t find the camera, but it did cause me to reconsider Mount Qomolangma. As I packed for Xizang, I expected that our state-of-the-art equipment and bottled oxygen would make the climb manageable, perhaps easy. Actually, when the top photo was taken,I was more exhausted than I’d ever been on any expedition. Along the way, I continuously tipped my hat, not just to Mallory, but to anyone who had the drive to push themselves up this route. 4.What are most climbers’ understanding of “Oomolangma selfie”?A.It comes at a big cost.B.It shows their respect for nature.C.It is inspired by passion.D.It brings a sense of achievement.5.Why did the author mention his first climbing experience?A.To stress the difficulty in climbing the cliff.B.To explain his focus on mountain climbing.C.To express his thoughts on “Oomolangma selfie”.D.To meet his desire to climb Mount Qomolangma.6.Which word can best describe the author’s expedition to Mount Qomolangma?A.Respectable.B.Challenging.C.Enjoyable.D.Charming. 7.What does the author seem to convey in the text?A.Not all expeditions are worth the effort.B.The meaning of climbing varies greatly.C.Perseverance lies behind “Qomolangma selfie”.D.Think twice before climbing Mount Qomolangma.I think it all started with microwaves. A typical microwave can cook an entire chicken in 16minutes. That’s 3 times faster than the best convection oven (对流烤箱). We still stand in front of microwaves, impatiently tapping our feet, waiting for popcorn to pop.Modern consumer technology and the Internet have only amplified that convenience impatience. We have emails that literally travel around the world in seconds, and yet we still ask the recipient: Did you get it? Where is it? It should be there. A file that takes more than 10 seconds to download is considered a crime.And we’re suddenly faced with a digital queue. The system can’t serve us all at once and asks us to wait. But waiting is a chain in our DNA that is breaking up. This leads to the toe tapping, fingers pianoing on the desk, pen chewing, and eventually hair-pulling as if the thought of waiting a few minutes will drive us mad.Millennials and Gen Z are products of an instant-response childhood. They’ve long lived ina world where their every thought is met with instant response in texts and social media. In real life, these same people have no idea how to wait for a response. The assumption (设想) is that real world works exactly the same as digital. But the system in a company or government doesn’t move at anything near digital speed. In fact, it often moves as slowly as it did in the pre-Internet age. There’s a disconnect between these waits and most of our lives lived through technology.We are biology living in a digital space, enjoying the benefits of instant answers and access, but unable to change our own programming to match its speed. Operating at digital and Internet speed is a great benefit, but we forget that somewhere in the instant access path is often a comparatively slow-moving and slow-thinking human, who can only do so much, and only at a certain pace.When people say slow down, take a breath, they usually mean that you should step back from a busy moment. But this should also include stepping back from your instant-access existence to see that not everything can happen right away. Most of the time, it just doesn’t need to.8.What does the underlined word “amplified” in paragraph 2 mean?A.Balanced.B.Worsened.C.Maintained.D.Weakened. 9.What is people’s reaction towards a digital queue?A.They lose patience to wait.B.They get embarrassed.C.They enjoy waiting to be served.D.They consider it as normal.10.What do we know about Millennials and Gen Z?A.They are lacking in social experience.B.They desire for immediate responses.C.They are deeply influenced by the social media.D.They have a good understanding of the real word.11.What can be concluded from the text?A.Accept things happen at their own pace.B.Go for instant response at any time.C.Make sure everything happens right away.D.Step back to see what has happened.Over the years, many scientists have attempted to explain why spending time in green spaces can reduce feelings of stress and anxiety, from their supposed ability to clean the air to theirmysterious effects on our brains.The most common saying I tend to hear is that plants, particularly houseplants, clean the air. The latest research now suggests that in indoor spaces you would need a lot of them before you see any noticeable benefit. How many? Well, several hundred per square meter of living space to achieve the same benefit of simply opening a window.What we do know, however, is that there is something unusual about the color green that seems to affect how our brains function. Researchers investigating the effect of exercise on psychological well-being have found that seeing views of the natural world on screens had additional benefits over and above the workout alone. However, when they changed the screens to show the same views in black and white or in shades of red, the effect was markedly reduced compared to the original green. This may mean that having evergreen species in your garden or even something as simple as painting your fence green might contribute to its effect.Similarly, designing your garden to require higher maintenance (维护) so that it is not simply somewhere to sunbathe in summer may improve the beneficial effect by encouraging gentle workouts. Low-impact, prolonged exercise, such as gardening, can burn more calories (卡路里) than a hard-hitting gym session, despite feeling easier. It is a way of being active that may appeal to far more people.Gardening is also a classic form of practicing mindfulness, which can help to focus our thoughts on the here and now, distracting us from any worries or stresses. Mindfulness exercises are well-documented to have a positive impact on psychological well-being. So act now, embrace (接受) the power of greenery and turn your garden into a welcoming space.12.Which factor determines houseplants’ effect on cleaning the air?A.Their quantity.B.Their colors.C.Their varieties.D.Their placement.13.What is a benefit of seeing the color green during exercise?A.Promoting sports technique.B.Burning more calories.C.Increasing intelligence level.D.Improving mental health.14.What contributes to the popularity of gardening?A.It is accessible and effective.B.It is affordable and appealing.C.It requires higher maintenance.D.It offers a connection with nature.15.Why is gardening a form of mindfulness?A.It helps develop a sense of success.B.It frees us from our daily matters.C.It directs our attention to the present.D.It encourages learning and creativity.Creativity is the skill of thinking up new and different ideas and solutions. 16 It comes out in the way we do all sorts of-things, such as solving riddles, playing games or dreaming up new ideas.Neuroscientists describe creativity as the brain’s way of coming up with an idea that is original, new or different. Some people make art, music or paintings. 17 You can be creative in anything you enjoy, such as baking, inventing games or playing with numbers. “The best thing about creativity is that there’s no right or wrong way to do it — it’s about finding ways to have fun,” says Rakhee Jasani, a writer who helps people discover their creativity.18 It can relieve stress, give you energy and help you feel calm. “It’s like taking a deep breath when we’re feeling stressed,”Jasani explains. “Doing something creative that we enjoy is sometimes just for ourselves — it helps us to express how we’re feeling so that we feel stronger and prouder. ”Exercising can make your body strong. 19 Think of a time when you’ve solved a problem, finished a jigsaw puzzle — this is your creative brain at work.Neuroscientists say that being creative means your brain has to mix up different “mental representations” in order to come up with something new or different. Mental representations are the images your mind creates — like when you dream of flying or imagine yourself travelling somewhere you’ve never actually been. We can all be creative in our own way. You can’t be bad at it. 20A.Every single one of us has a creative. side.B.But that’s not the only way to be creative.C.Similarly, being creative helps to exercise your brain.D.You can make use of creativity to achieve your goals.E.Creativity has lots of benefits for your brain, body and mind.F.It’s just about exploring things and sharing them with others.G.Creativity is the way you use your imagination to express yourself.二、完形填空What can you see if you walk around the Rahway Trail in the South Mountain Reservation of Millburn?

Small houses are 23 in the tree trunks and branches — a surprisingly sweet 24 in an otherwise normal-looking forest.The fairy homes were built by volunteers.

What do I have to do?”“It is a lot of hard work and devotion. It’s not easy.”She was right. My team had practice every day from 3:30 to 6 except for Fridays.

Deforestation speeds up climate change, which is worsening droughts in the Horn of Africa, including Kenya, where rains have failed for five seasons in a row. So the government has set aside more than $ 80 million this year, managing to augment tree coverage to more than 10%.“It is a moment for Kenyans to stand together in the defense of our environment,” said Soipan Tuya, the Environment Minister. He referred to the day as “a ‘hummingbird(s)’ contribution day”. Hummingbirds are small birds, but they play an important part in the environment by pollinating(授粉)flowers.He added, “H aving been planting trees for most of my life, I thought I was doing ratherwell, but the government’s plan to plant 15 billion trees by 2032 was ‘an unprecedented(史无前例的)show of promise by the government towards our climate action duties.’”8.What is the purpose of the public holiday?A.To increase economic income. B.To encourage people to plant trees.C.To allow people to get more rest. D.To remind people to get close to nature. 9.Which word is the closest in meaning to “augment” in paragraph 3?A.Increase. B.Figure. C.Record. D.Stop.10.What does Soipan Tuya want to say by referring to the day as “a ‘hummingbird’ contribution day”?A.We should get on well with birds. B.No contribution is too small to leave animpact.C.Each animal is important to nature. D.It is time to protect hummingbirds. 11.What is the best title for the text?A.Kenya Is Taking Action to Protect WildlifeB.Kenya Is in Face of Environmental ProblemsC.Kenya Improves Relationships with Their NeighborsD.Kenya Surprises the Public with a Holiday to Plant TreesDAre you a fan of birds? If so, you may have admired their beautiful colors and sweet songs. But do you know these feathered friends can actually do more than that?A new study published in the journal Scientific Reports finds that exposure to birds, either in the home or outdoors, can boost people’s moods.Researchers at King’s College London used a smartphone app built by the school’s Urban Mind project to collect the real-time feelings of study participants upon seeing or hearing a bird. A total of 1,292 people living in the United Kingdom, Europe, and the United States participated in the study which was conducted between April 2018 and October 2021.The app asked participants three times a day whether they could see or hear a bird followed by a series of questions on their mental well-being. Participants were also asked questions about whether they could see trees, plants or hear any water to see if people were experiencing better mental well-being due to being in or seeing nature, and not just because of exposure to birds.According to the study, the mental well-being of study participants with and without depression was significantly improved after seeing a bird or hearing birdsong compared to not seeing or hearing a bird.There is a growing number of studies that link spending time outdoors (either in green leafy places or next to bodies of water) to improved mental health. But there are few studies that look at how different aspects of nature can play into humans’ me ntal well-being.And while the study adds to the small pile of research on birds and mental health, the report marks the first time researchers have studied the responses to birds and mental well-being in real-time, according to Ryan Hammoud, lead author of the study.“They kind of examine nature as a single object when nature includes many different characteristics and features like trees, plants, water, birds,” said Hammoud, “We choose to focus on bird life to try and understand which specific characteristics of nature benefit mental well-being.”12.What is the purpose of paragraph 1?A.To introduce a phenomenon. B.To bring in the topic.C.To ask an interesting question. D.To provide background information. 13.How did the researchers conduct the study?A.By analyzing previous studies. B.By observing the behavior of birds.C.By gathering feelings of participants. D.By studying people’s effect on birds. 14.What does Hammoud think of the new study?A.Pioneering. B.Interesting. C.Conventional. D.Practical. 15.What is the main idea of the text?A.Bird watching has become a popular hobby.B.Exposure to birds can improve mental well-being.C.Nature is the best medicine for mental health issues.D.Spending time outdoors can impact mental health positively.第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分,满分12.5分)阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项,选项中有两项为多余选项。

Peking Opera is being introduced to primary and middle school students in an effort to promote(促进) the traditional art to the younger generation, Beijing News reported on Tuesday.The country's first set of textbooks about Peking Opera was published by the Beijing Association of Promoting Quintessence of Chinese Culture and People's Education Press in 2015. The textbooks are being tried in some junior middle schools in the Fengtai District and will be used in middle schools across the city.Since 2008, Beijing has promoted a program to provide opera training at dozens of primary schools. Schools apply for some support from the city's education department to hire professional actors and actresses to work with students as young as 6 or 7.Peking Opera appeared during the rule of Emperor Qianlong in the Qing Dynasty (1644-1911). It developed for decades in China and as its fame spread, it drew audiences in other countries, including the United States and Japan.Yet over the years, its popularity gradually diminished (disappeared). While a significant number of people listened to radio productions of Peking Opera before the 1980s, generations born after that sought after pop culture over the traditional arts.29.

It is so hard not to hear it on Christmas. Endless playing of songs like this in shops during the festive season doesn’t just drive us mad — the songs also make us more careless with our money, the research has warned.While the repeated performance of Jingle Bells may seem like an attempt to raise customers’spirits when doing Christmas shopping, the songs also have a more delicate influence.“Background music’can be used by marketers to give cultures —such as the commercialization(商业化) of Christmas — to consumers and affect their behaviour,” experts said. Dr Alan Bradshaw of Royal Holloway, University of London, said,“Festive jingles are forcefed to Christmas shoppers to change their mood, influence their sense of time and what sort of products they buy. In other words, this is an attempt to control their shopping habits in a way that they might hardly realize.”“Often we are told that we have the freedom to choose where we want to shop, but during Christmas the use of music in this way is so common that our freedom to choose disappears.”Dr Bradshaw and Professor Morris Holbrook of Columbia University examined the phenomenon and found that retailers often “dumb down” the music played in shops to relax customers, meaning it is easier to control their behaviour.It is thought that slowing down the rhythm of music in shops can trick customers into thinking less time has passed, and therefore they spend more time examining the shelves, for example. Some providers of background music have been known to promote their services by saying they can get profits by controlling the behaviour of customers.“A common trick is to take a popular current song and record an instrumental version which can be slowed down or sped up at different time of the day to influence behaviour in different ways,” Dr Bradshaw said.Background music is often classed as “Muzak”(繆扎克背景音乐) in honour of the Seattlebased company which began producing its softsounding melodies in the 1930s.32.
