In fact, he looks a lot better than most guys in their 20s, with his lean(瘦且健康的), strong muscles and youthful attitude. But he's absolutely not the only 50-something man who has the strong muscle in the world. What really sets Nhon Ly apart from all the rest is his unbelievable similarity to Dragon Ball Z character Master Roshi, also known as the Turtle Hermit, in his "final form". And he apparently liked the comparison so much that he even set his Instagram handle as@master_ roshi_ real_ life.According to Madness Media , Ly immigrated to the United States in 1980, at the age of16. He got a job as a pedicurist(修脚师) at a nail salon, and worked his way up to salon owner. Although he has achieved so much, bodybuilding has always been his biggest love. He has competed in several professional bodybuilding events, with his most notable results being the 4th place at the 2011 US Championship, the 7th place at the 2012 edition ,and the 5th place at the 2015 Nationals.Even at 55, Nhon Ly continues to train hard in the gym in order to keep his Master Roshi look. He also likes to share photos and videos with his 40,000 fans, many of whom are Dragon Ball Z fans. They routinely post a large quantity of comments, thanking him for training Goku, who is the main character in Dragon Ball media, and asking him to train them in the art of bodybuilding.4.Why is Nhon Ly called "real-life Master Roshi"?A.He looks extremely similar to Master Roshi.B.He is quite good at training people like Goku.C.He has the same life stories as Master Roshi.D.He holds a special attitude to Dragon Ball Z.5.How does Nhon Ly feel about his "new name"?A.He finds it typical yet silly.

Studies suggest spending less time on sleep can lead to obesity(肥胖) and even cancer. You might even find yourself with a head full of false memories. But rarely does science explore the dark side of sleeping too much. That's because few of us in today's busy world have the luck of exploring that option.In an August 2018 study, published in the Journal of the American Heart Association,researchers researched the sleep patterns of those“fortunate”few and found they may not be so lucky after all. In fact, they found people who get more than eight hours of sleep have greater health risk compared to those who sleep together less than seven hours. What's more,sleep-aholics-those who manage to get 10 hours a night-stand a 30 percent higher chance of dying compared to the seven-hour crowd.The wide-ranging global study involved(涉及) more than three million people whoself-reported on their sleep habits and came to an eye-opening conclusion: If you tend to sleep a lot, you may want to buy an alarm clock. As with all things in life, sleep is best taken in moderation(适度).You may be thinking: What if I only sleep in on Saturday and Sunday, am I still at risk? The answer is yes, according to a 2019 study published in Current Biology. Researchers discovered that even if a person sleeps more than seven hours on the weekends but still sleeps less than that on weeknights, they are at risk of gaining weight and developing sensitivity to insulin, which controls the level of sugar in blood.For the study, 36 participants were divided into three groups that each had a different sleep schedule: nine hours every night, five hours every night, and five hours from Monday to Friday and sleeping much on weekends. People who get too much sleep tend to feel tired and lack energy. Also, both sleep-deprived(睡眠不足的) groups consume more food and gain weight.8.Why is the harmful effect of sleeping too much seldom studied?A.Few people have time to sleep too much. B.Lack of sleep causes much more harm. C.It turns out to be a healthy sleep pattern. D.People's health has nothing to do with it. 9.What does the underlined words "those 'fortunate' few" in paragraph 2 refer to? A.Those leading a relaxing life. B.Those getting too much sleep. C.Those with less time to sleep. D.Those with no sleep problems. 10.What can be learned from the 2019 study?A.Sleeping much is particularly beneficial to hungry people.B.Many people sleep more on weekends than on weekdays.C.An alarm clock of high quality is important for good sleep.D.People who sleep much only on weekends also have health risk.11.What is the main idea of the text?A.It is necessary to save enough time for sleep.B.Too much sleep can result in gaining weight.C.Sleeping too much does harm to people's health.D.People can avoid sleeping much by eating healthily.A society that lives by the plastic fork may very well die from it. That's how things are looking. Anyway,for a world so used to disposable(一次性的)habits, any hope for a solution(解决方案) also increasingly seems to be buried.Sure, there have been some hopeful ideas. Boyan Slat, the Dutch inventor developed a plan for Covering the Great Pacific Garbage Patch. Not long after it started, Slat's system experienced "material fatigue(疲劳)"-likely the result of being strained(使受到压力) by all that trash-and the task was delayed.AlI the while, the plastic increases. Its growth is very fast, according to Linda Wang, a professor of chemical engineering at Purdue University. She says, "We'II have more plastic than fish by 2050. " Yet Wang, along with other researchers at Purdue, may have a solution not only to this plastic problem, but also to the growing need for clean energy. Her team has developed a system that turns waste, a durable, lightweight material that accounts for about a quarter of all plastic waste, into a highly pure form of gasoline.Publishing their findings in the journal Sustainable Chemistry and Engineering, the scientists state that instead of making plastic go away, they can break it down and reuse it, using chemistry to destroy what chemistry brought to the world when plastic was developed back in 1907.The process uses "supercritical" water-heated to around 450 degrees celsius(842 degrees Fahrenheit),beyond the key point at which distinct liquid and vapor phases(气液态) exist-to boil plastic waste into an oil,the researchers explain. It takes a couple of hours for the supercritical water to complete the transformation, but the result is a kind of oil that can be used as gasoline or fuel. It can also be turned into other products.The researchers have only made the transformation in a laboratory setting so far, but they suggest turning the process to a commercial scale(规模)may not be far off. And considering the 300 million tons of plastic into the environment every year, that day can't come soon enough. But it will come in time.12.Why is the plastic fork mentioned in paragraph l?A.To indicate the hopeless future of human life.B.To figure out the solution to reducing plastics.C.To show the seriousness of the plastic problem.D.To tell people to give up an unhealthy lifestyle.13.What can we know about Slat's system?A.It proves harmful to the Pacific.B.It has been abandoned completely.C.It has received many people's opposition.D.It met with difficulty while being carried out.14.What is the advantage of Wang's system?A.It can save fish in the ocean.B.It can recycle and reuse plastic.C.It can surely lower the prices of gas and fuel.D.It can make plastic products more affordable.15.What is the author's attitude towards Wang's system?A.Hopeful. B.Disapproving.C.Cautious. D.Uncertain.二、完形填空There are so many spring festivals around the country centered on gardening, bluegrass, wine and food, or Earth Day. But if you visit western Colorado's Grand Valley, you'll see a festival 16 to sharing. Congregants(集会者)of more than 100 area churches have decided to 17 what they believe in.Called ShareFest, the event brings volunteers from different 18 for a busy but 19 weekend of house repair, painting, gardening and more. The idea was 20 put forward by a group of pastors(牧师)in central Arkansas and was finally 21 by First Presbyterian Colorado churches in 2007. A group of people from church decided to offer 22 to a local school. Teachers needed desks washed and other work done. And so it began.Churches have been 23 flyers(传单) in their area over the past several months so that people in need can either post their 24 for help on a central website or call the team for 25 . Teams of church members "adopt" neighborhoods or organizations to help with those wishes. Project leaders then visit to 26 what materials and time are needed.Past 27 included everything from making the bed for an elderly woman to painting a building, which required 30 gallons of paint. Local businesses 28 materials. Participants don't have to be big and strong-or even 29 . In past years, five-year-olds picked up leaves in neighbors' yards. Seniors created care packages for college 30 with blue books for tests and other 31 that could help them through finals.The two-day event 32 with a prayer and a cheer. Then Saturday morning, volunteers 33 the streets and homes around the town, starting doing voluntary work.People come together to make a corner of the world a bit 34 .

Indeed, it is becoming increasingly important that we all learn how to deal with this painful feeling.You should be determined to actively end your loneliness. We often end up passively waiting for someone else to make us feel less lonely. You may feel that your loneliness indicates that nobody is willing to connect with you. And there is nothing you can do about it. But that is far from the truth.37..You should find reasons why you are lonely. We all feel lonely for different reasons. Some of us have no one else to interact(互动) with on a consistent basis and that's why we feel lonely. You may feel that the people in your life don't share your thoughts and ideas.38., you need to identify it. And you know exactly how to handle your loneliness.39.. People who are lonely tend to fall into destructive mental habits. They try to avoid the pain of not being understood and being disconnected by not giving people any chance to understand and connect with them.That's not what you should choose to do. Instead, you should share your thoughts and feelings with others and do so openly and fearlessly.You should find people who share your interests. 40., everybody is interested in something.And just as there are many interests, there are many people who share those interests. Find what interests you and connect with others on that basis.A.Whatever the reason isB.Whether it's coin collecting or video gamesC.If you have no reason to share your interestsD.You should be true to yourself or actively end lonelinessE.You should be open about your thoughts, ideas and desiresF.Ending loneliness is something that you can and should do activelyG.However, more and more of us find ourselves having to stand loneliness四、语法填空If you have ever taken a handwritten prescription from a doctor or looked at the notes from your visit, it seems like no amount of squinting(眯眼) could help the letters get clearer.Bad handwriting almost seems like a41.(require) for graduating from medical school. But it's not the fact42.0nly people with bad handwriting43.(attract) to the medical field. If so, why does it happen to doctors?“In the medical field, if it's not documented, it44.(actual) didn't happen," says Celine Thum, MD, medical director at ParaDocs Worldwide. Anything you talk about behind closed doors needs written evidence for your medical history. Doctors have to write more than any other employee, for 45.they can hardly write letters clearly.Long days plus tons of writing leads46.a very tired hand. If doctors could spend an hour47.(deal) with every patient, they might be able to slow down and give their48.(hand)a rest. But the truth is that most physicians are rushing around to the next patient. With so many patients to see in a49.(limit) time, doctors are50.(concerned) about getting the information down than perfecting their handwriting.五、短文改错51.假定英语课上老师要求同桌之间交换修改作文,请你修改你同桌写的以下作文。

For example, snowmobiles, skiers, and explosives (23) ________ (know) to lead to avalanches.Avalanches usually occur during the winter and spring, (24) ________ snowfall is greatest. As they are dangerous to any living beings in their path, avalanches have destroyed forests, roads, railroads and even entire towns.Warning signs exist that allow experts to predict -- and often prevent -- avalanches from (25) ________ ________ (occur). When over a foot of fresh snow falls, experts know to be on the lookout for avalanches. Explosives can be used in places (26) ________ massive snow buildups to trigger much smaller avalanches that don’t pose a danger to persons or property.When deadly avalanches do occur, the moving snow can quickly reach over 80 miles per hour.

Each word can be used only once. NoteUnder the terms of the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Tready(不扩散核武器条约), only five countries are considered to be “nuclear - weapon states.” China is one of them. This military achievement would have been __31__ without the contribution of Deng Jiaxian, a leading organizer of China’s nuclear weapon programs.Deng went to the United States in 1948 for further study, and received a doctorate in physics two years later. Just nine days after graduation, the then 26-year-old returned to the newly - founded People’s Republic of China with __32__ physics knowledge. He became a research fellow under the leadership of Qian Sanqiang and started his theoretical nuclear research in cooperation with Yu Min.From 1958 on, Deng spent over 20 years working __33__ with a team of young scientists on the development of China’s first atomic and hydrogen bombs. Originally, they were prepared to receive training by experts from the Soviet Union. Soon after, however, the Soviet government tore up its __34__ with China and removed all its experts. Deng had to lead the team of 28 members with an average age of 23 on a mission to __35__ the mysterious power of atomic physics.There was ridicule(嘲笑)following the __36__ of the Soviet experts that China wouldn’t be able to build an atomic bomb within 20 years. Deng said to his colleagues, “It is in the interest of the Chinese people to develop nuclear weapons. We must be willing to be unknown heroes for our lifetime. It is worth the risk of suffering, and it is worth our __37__ to this cause.”As the leader of China’s atomic bomb design, Deng gave lessons himself and organized a team to translate and study the __38__ foreign language materials. In the meantime, he never stopped thinking about the direction of atomic bomb development.Following the successful test of the first atomic bomb in 1964, Deng joined the research group led by Yu Min. They immediately started the design of the hydrogen bomb, which was __39__ in 1967. From the first atomic bomb to the first hydrogen bomb, China spent only two years and eight months on development.Deng passed away in 1986 because of cancer. In the last month of his life, the 28-year secret experience of this great scientist was __40__, and his reputation began to spread throughout China. In 1999, along with 22 other scientists, he was awarded the special prize of “Two Bombs, One Satellite Meritorious Medal” for his contribution to Chinese military science.Ⅱ. Reading ComprehensionSection ADirections: For each blank in the following passage there are four words or phrases marked A, B, C and D. Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context.In the Fake News Era, Building Trust with Consumers Is CrucialWith consumers growing increasingly frustrated with online advertising and privacy concerns, how to you convince shoppers to buy your narrative(叙述), let alone your product?A recent report by Trust-Radius, a software review company that connects buyers and vendors(供应商), may be able to shed some light. Among other interesting findings, it turns out that it may actually benefit brands to be painfully __41__ about their products.Consumer awareness of influencer marketing tactics(策略)is increasing. __42__, according to the report, most consumers trust online peer __43__ as much as recommendations from friends -- and well above company advertising message. Feedback from everyday folks, it seems, actually carries more __44__ than a brand ambassador (大使)from an out-of-reach personality.Transparency(透明度)is crucial The report found that there is a large trust __45__ between vendors and buyers. While vendors believe they are transparent, most buyers don’t appear to see it. During the sales process, for example, 85 percent of vendors -- __46__ to be open about their product’s limitations during the sales process -- but only 36 percent of buyers share that same view. The reality is, consumers don’t expect any products to be __47__ -- they just want to enter relationships with their eyes wide open so that they can __48__ the options that are best for them. They also want brands to be more __49__. 66 percent of consumers say they will leave a company if they feel they are being treated like a number and not an individual.Along with the combination of take news, advertising fraud, and data leaks, there have been fake reviews as well. Review sites have been __50__ giving preferential(优惠的)treatment to paid advertisers, and consumers are increasingly discerning(有辨别力的), as a result. __51__, review sites are not our only source of peer reviews, with social media providing customer experiences on a second - to - second basis. When brands treat every __52__ with a customer as a potential review, they’ll start paying more attention to detail, and being alert to delivering a valued and memorable experience every time. Taking feedback seriously also lets current customers feel valued and respected and makes your business seem more approachable. This helps secure __53__, and often, these customers will become brand ambassadors to their friends, family and people they meet online.The challenge for brands today is determining how to use the __54__ of the consumer to their advantage. In an age of cutting - edge technology, artificial intelligence, and self-service customer care, it’s odd to acknowledge that the best way to build trust with your customers is by holding an open __55__ with your customers. Being more human, transparent, and listening to what people are saying will see your company thrive in an era marked by consumer suspicion.41. A. nervous B. honest C. careful D. particular42. A.

A. dialogue B. debate C. competition D. contractSection BDirections: Read the following three passage. Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read.(A)As humanity has got richer, animal’s roles have changed. People need their services less than before. Fewer wolves and thieves meant less demand for dogs for protection; the internal combustion engine(内燃机)made horses unneeded; modern sanitation(卫生设备)kept rats in check and made cats less useful. No longer necessities, domestic animals became luxuries. Pet-keeping seems to kick in when household incomes rise above roughly $5,000. It is booming.The trend is not a new one. Archaeologists(考古学家)have found 10,000-year-old graves in which dogs and people are buried together. Some cultures -- such as in Scandinavia, where dogs have long been both working dogs and companions -- have kept pets for thousands of years. But these days the pet-keeping urge has spread even to parts of the world which have no tradition of sinking into a comfortable chair with a furry creature.The pet business is growing even faster than pet numbers, because people are spending more and more money on them. No longer are they food - waste - recyclers, fed with the remains that fall from their masters’ tables. Pet - food shelves are full of delicacies crafted to satisfy a range of appetites, including ice cream for dogs and foods for pets that are old, diabetic or suffer from sensitive digestion; a number of internet services offer food, tailored to the pet’s individual tastes.In the business this is called “pet humanisation” -- the tendency of pet owners to treat their pets as part of the family. This is evident in the names given to dogs, which have evolved from Fido, Rex and Spot to -- in America -- Bella, Lucy and Max. It is evident in the growing market for pet clothing, pet grooming and pet hotels.People still assume that pets must be working for humanity in some way, perhaps making people healthier or less anxious. But the evidence for that is weak. Rather, new research suggests that dogs have evolved those irresistible “puppy - dog eyes” precisely to affect human emotions. It has worked. The species that once enslaved others now works very hard to pay for the care of its pets. Sentimental(多愁善感的)Americans often refer to themselves not as cat-owners but as the cat’s “mommy” or “daddy”. South Koreans go one further, describing themselves as cat “butlers”. Watch an unlucky dog-walker trailing “his” hound(猎犬), plastic bag in hand to pick up its mess, and you have to wonder: who’s in charge now?56. Which of the following trends is NOT TRUE according to the passage?A. People’s needs for animal services are decreasing.B. Both the pet number and the pet business are growing.C. Pets are increasingly making their owners less anxious.D. Pet foods are more various and customized than before.57. Which of the following is referred to as evidence of “pet humanization?”A. The names given to pets in American families nowadays.B. Pet’s inbuilt ability to affect emotions of their owners.C. Human beings ever rising urge for pet-keeping.D. Pet’s roles as both working staff and companions.58. Which of the following statements is the author most likely to agree with?A. Pets should be treated as equals of their human masters.B. Human beings are getting much benefit from their pets.C. Pet-keeping is still restricted within certain parts of the world.D. Some pet owners spend too much money on their pets.59. Which of the following might be the best title of the passage?A. The Changing Roles of AnimalsB. The Urge for Pet-keepingC. Who Owns WhomD. Love Me, Love My Dog(B)Depression hurts, Prozac can helpDepression isn’t just feeling down. It’s a real illness with real causes. Depression can be triggered by stressful life events, like divorce or a death in the family. Or it can appear suddenly, for no apparent reason.Some people think you can just will yourself out of a depression. That’s not true. Many doctors believe that one thing that may cause depression is an imbalance of serotonin -- a chemical in your body. If this happens, you may have trouble sleeping. Feel unusually sad or irritable easily. Find it hard to concentrate. Lose your appetite. Lack energy. Or have trouble feeling pleasure. These are some of the symptoms that can point to depression -- especially if they last for more than a couple of weeks and if normal, everyday life feels like to much to handle.To help fight depression, the medicine doctors now prescribe(开处方)most often is Prozac. Prozac isn’t a “happy pill”. It’s not a tranquilizer(镇静剂). It won’t turn you into a different person.Some people do experience mild side effects, like upset stomach, headaches, difficulty sleeping, sleepiness, anxiety and nervousness. These tend to go away within a few weeks of starting treatment, and usually aren’t serious enough to make most people stop taking it. However, if you are concerned about a side effect, or if you develop a rash(皮疹), tell your doctor right away. And don’t forget to tell your doctor any other medicines you are taking. Some people should not take Prozac, especially people an MAO inhibitors(单胺抑制剂).As you start feeling better, your doctor can suggest therapy or other means to help you work through your depression. Prozac has been carefully studied for nearly 10 years. But remember, Prozac is a prescription medicine, and it isn’t right for everyone. Only your doctor can decide if Prozac is right for you -- or for someone you love. Prozac has been prescribed for more than 17 million Americans. Chances are someone you know is feeling sunny again because of it.60. All the following are true EXCEPT ________.A. It is easy to get rid of depression through tremendous determination.B. Sleep disorder is characteristic of depression symptoms.C. Depression can be caused by combination of factors.D. Depression is a psychological state taking the form of low mood.61. What can we learn about Prozac from this piece of information?A. Prozac is a newly developed drug to treat depression.B. patients who take Prozac can experience severe side a effects.C. A medical prescription is necessary for Prozac.D. Over 17 million Americans have been cured by Prozac.62. This piece of information is most probably________.A. an introduction to a scientific projectB. a part of prescription drug instructionsC. a part of a research report in a medical journalD. an advertisement of a medicine for depression(C)Learning a second language is tricky at any age (and it only gets tougher the longer you wait to open that dusty French book). Now, in a new study, scientists have pinpointed the exact age at which your chances of reading fluency in a second language seems to plummet: 10.The study, published in the journal Cognition, found that it’s “nearly impossible” for language learners to reach native - level fluency if they start learning a second tongue after 10. But that doesn’t seem to be because language skills go downhill. “It turns out you’re still learning fast. It’s just that you run out of time, because your ability to learn starts dropping at around 17 or 18 years old,” says study co-author Joshua Hartshorne, an assistant professor of psychology at Boston College.Kids may be better than adults at learning new languages for many reasons. Children’s brains are more plastic than those of adults, meaning they’re better able to adapt and respond to new information. “All learning involves the brain changing,” Hartshorne says, “and children’s brains seem to be a lot more skilled at changing.”Kids may also be more willing to try new things (and to potentially look foolish in the process) than adults are. Their comparatively new grasp on their native tongue may also be advantageous. Unlike adults, who tend to default(默认)to the rules and patterns of their first language, kids may be able to approach a new one with a blank slate(石板).These findings may seems discouraging, but it was heartening for scientists to learn that the critical period for fluent language acquisition might be longer than they previously thought. Some scientists believed that the brief window closes shortly after birth, while others stretched it only to early adolescence. Compared to those estimates, 17 or 18 -- when language learning ability starts to drop off -- seems relatively old.“People fared better when thy learned by immersion(沉浸), rather than simply in a classroom. And moving to a place where our desired language is spoken is the best way to learn as an adult. If that’s not an option, you can mimic an immersive environment by finding ways to have conversations with native speakers in their own communities,” Hartshorne says. By doing so, it’s possible to become conversationally proficient -- even without the advantage of a child’s brain.63. The word “plummet” in paragraph 1 is closest in meaning to “________”.A. plungeB. riseC. endD. vary64. What can be inferred from Joshua Hartshorne’s words?A. Age 10 -18 is the best time to learn a second language.B. Children are too young to grasp a second language.C. Communicating with native speakers enables you to master all the language skills.D. Adults go beyond the critical period for learning a second language.65. What might be the reason why adults can’t reach native - level fluency in a second language.A. Adults are less influenced by their mother tonguesB. Adults are only too willing to experience something awkward in the process.C. Adults spend more time responding to new information.D. Adults prefer an immersive environment to a classroom in learning a second language.66. The passage is mainly about ________.A. the approaches to learning a second languageB. the best age to learn a second language.C. why kids learn a second language more easily than adultsD. whether adults can learn a second language like their younger selvesSection CDirections: Read the following passage. Fill in each blank with a proper sentence given in the box. Each sentenceLooking for a $130,000 payday? Geomiq, a British engineering and manufacturing firm is searching for a “kind and friendly” face to be the face of a robot once it goes into production. “This will entail(需要)the selected person’s face being reproduced on potentially thousands of versions of the robots worldwide,” Geomiq says in a blog post about the project.Robots have been at the forefront of technology for decades, and are widely considered the future of our technological advancement. With the number of adults over 85 expected to triple by 2050, according to some estimates, robots designed to keep the elderly company are becoming increasingly common. (67) ________________ They do things like responding to voice commands, offering proactive(积极主动的)notifications and advice and letting relatives monitor conditions at home. There is still a long way to go but new robotic products are coming into fruition all the time. Geomiq says the robot line has been in the works for five years and will result in a companion for seniors.The designer has noted in an interview with a select press pool that they can’t release too many details at this stage. (68) ________________ The designer has also stressed that unsuccessful candidates will not be contacted. The company says the need for anonymity(匿名)is due to the secretive nature of the project. However, it believes the robot will soon be “readily available” to the public and hopes the campaign will create extra buzz ahead of its eventual release. “We know that this is an extremely unique request, and signing over the licenses to your face is potentially an extremely big decision,” Geomiq said.(69) ________________ The designer has said that the project has been in development for five years, and in that time frame taken on investment from some independent venture capitals as well as a top fund based in Shanghai. the company says the robots’ purpose will be to act as a “virtual friend” for elderly people and is set to go into production next year.The blog past doesn’t share age or gender parameters(参数). (70) ________________ Candidates who make it to the next phase will get full details on the project. “The secrecy,” Geomiq says, “is due to non-disclosureagreement it’s signed with the robot’s designer and investors.”Ⅱ.Summary WritingDirections: Read the following passage. Summarize the main idea and the main point(s) of the passage in no more than 60 words. Use your own words as far as possible.Do We Need Art in Our LivesNo one will be surprised to hear that the arts are under fire in this day and age. We view the arts as something of a hobby, something that’s fun but certainly can’t pay the rent. If it’s not a useful skill, no wonder arts funding is being cut in schools. Do we really need art in our lives?In schools, time and money is at a premium (稀有而珍贵), now more than ever. With teachers having to fit so many lessons into every day. it’s easy to see why art is dropping more and more by the wayside. Budgets are dropping at an alarming rate, and what school is going to drop teaching in essential subjects such as math or science when they can drop art instead?It seems as though the loss of art in daily life is sad fact of life, but it doesn’t have to be. There are actually a lot of practical uses for art for many people. For example, art therapy has helped people with a range of illnesses, both mental and physical, cope with their symptoms. Art is found almost anywhere you look in your home. Practical items, such as bedspreads, furniture or clothing, are all art forms in themselves and arouse emotions in the people interacting with them.Art also gives us insight into the world. History tells us what happened and when it happened, but it can’t tell us how the population at large felt about it, which is where art steps in. We know a lot about how people in the past lived and worded, because their art has given us much a deep insight into their daily lives. We wouldn’t have that insight without it.Most of all, we need art in our lives as it gives us a form of self-expression. Being able to talk about our feelings is essential to staying healthy. You may not think ou talk about your feelings, but you may express them in other ways. Some like to cook or bake, some like to work machinery, and others may like to paint or draw. Whatever you like to do in your spare time, you’re probably creating art every day.So, do we need art in our lives? Many people would say no, but the art they’re thinking of is the art you see in galleries. Art is actually much more accessible and it truly needed in everyday life. It helps those in need, gives people in the future an idea of what life was like, and is a vital form of self-expression.Ⅴ. TranslationDirections: Translate the following sentences into English, using the words given in the brackets.72. 学而不思犹如食而不化。

GutersonPuget Sound,WashingtonWhile San Piedro is a fictional island in the real life San Juan Islands off Washington,the location of this haunting mystery is believed to be based on Bainbridge Island,which is more to the south in Puget Sound.But for anyone who's been to these Pacific Northwest islands and experienced their pine and cedar forests and quiet harbors,the book's description of San Piedro rings true:"a brand of green beauty that inclined its residents toward the poetical."2.'Disappearing Earth'by Julia PhillipsKamchatka Peninsula,RussiaThis detective fiction's main character is Kamchatka,the remote Siberian peninsula full of unique characters who reveal the ethnic and cultural conflicts of the region,all connected by a crime.3.'Love in the Time of Cholera'by Gabriel

project that links professors with underprivileged teenagers.The new project between King's College London(KCL)and Newham Sixth Form College in east London offering lessons in Classics to bright senior-three students is now in its second year.Students from disadvantaged backgrounds with high academic potential can attend the classes,which are designed to inspire and engage them in challenging topics that are often the preserve of private schools.Lecturers cover subjects including ancient literature,religion,theology,Persian history and philosophy.Some teenagers from neighbouring state schools also attend.The students act out Greek plays such as Antigone by Sophocles and are encouraged to consider Classics as a degree.Edith Hall,a Classics lecturer at KCL,said:"We wanted to enable the students from Newham to understand the richness and relevance of the classical world.They have a unique opportunity to engage with world-class lecturers,”Juned Malek,19,who is in his first year at KCL,was introduced to literature,theology,history and philosophy by the classical outreach program when he was at Newham.He now helps to run it.He said the program was"essential in making the myths that surround studying Classics disappear,namely that it is an elitist(精英)subject or that it has limited career opportunities".The analytical skills that the degree develops are in high demand by employers,particularly investment banks and law firms.He said all schools should teach Classics to give a"basic introduction of historical principles passed down through millennia",adding:"A limited classical education leaves you stuck in the constant present,lacking the ability to use the past as a frame of reference when making decisions."8.Why do the professors start the project?A.To control the study time.B.To help the underprivileged students.C.To help the talented students from KCL.D.To inspire and engage all students in challenging topics.9.

Technology.C.Business.D.Science.DAuthorities in China have approved a drug for the treatment of Alzheimer's disease(早老性痴呆),the first new medicine with the potential to treat the cognitive(认知的)disorder in 17 years.The seaweed-based drug,called Oligomannate,can be used for the treatment of mild to moderate Alzheimer's,according to a statement from China's drug safety agency.The approval is conditionalhowever,meaning that while it can go on sale during additional clinical trials,it will be strictly monitored and could be withdrawn if any safety issues should arise.In September,the team behind the new drug,led by Geng Meiyu at the Shanghai Institute of Materia Medica under the Chinese Academy of Sciences,said they were inspired to look into seaweed due to the relatively low incidence of Alzheimer's among people who consume it regularly.In a paper in the journal Cell Research,Geng's team described how a sugar contained within seaweed prevents certain bacteria contained in the gut(肠子)which can cause neural decline and infection of the brain,leading to Alzheimer's.This mechanism was confirmed during a clinical trial carried out by Green Valley,a Shanghai based pharmaceutical company that will be bringing the new drug to market.Conducted on 818 patients,the trial found that Oligomannate-which is got from brown algae(海藻)-can statistically improve cognitive function among people with Alzheimer's in as little as four weeks,according to a statement from Green Valley."The company said Oligomannate will be available in China"very soon",and it is currently seeking approval to market it abroad,with plans to launch third-phase clinical trials in the US and Europe in early 2020.12.What can Oligomannate be used for?A.Curing the severe Alzheimer's.B.Treating the minor Alzheimer's.C.Killing all bacteria in the body.D.Treating all cognitive disorders.13.What inspired the team to look into the seaweed?A.The praise from a patient with Alzheimer's.B.An incident of brain infection in the laboratory.C.The approval for the seaweed research from the authorities.D.The low occurrence of the disease among people eating the seaweed.14.What causes the Alzheimer's?A.The brown algae.B.The wound of the head.C.Some bacteria contained in the gut.D.A sugar contained within seaweed.15.What is the company Green Valley's attitude to the future of Oligomannate?A.Optimistic.B.Uncertain.C.Indifferent.D.Anxious.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。

Here at iWantSun. co. uk we’ve been searching the globe to find you the world’s best and most famous beach walks, and here’s our pick of the top. Click on the most interesting walks and join our tourist program.The Footpath of the Gods, Amalfi Coast, ItalyThe name says it all really and you truly feel excited there, walking along this wonderful mountain path, which offers some of the most striking views on the planet. The path begins at the town of Bomerano to charming Positano along the UNESCO World Heritage area of the Amalfi Coast. The whole walk will take you about four and half hours to complete and pass over narrow rocky paths.Sydney’s Great Coastal Walk, AustraliaSydney’s coastline is one the most beautiful and diverse landscapes in the world. Here you have national parks, historic sites, shining and quiet beachesall in one place. Sydney’s Great Coastal Walk runs all the way from Barrenjoey in the north to Royal National Park in the south and takes an unbelievable seven days to complete. However, if you’re not up to doing the full walk, there are many dif ferent parts of the walk that you can do right in the city itself. Walking from the city’s famous Bondi Beach to the sweeping curve(大半径曲线)of Brone Beach takes just an hour, which takes in some top sceneries.Great Ocean Walk, AustraliaThe Great Ocean Walk covers 104km along Victoria’s famous Great Ocean Road, located on the southern coast of Australia, from the holiday town Apollo Bay to the splendid Twelve Apostles. The Twelve Apostles are the area’s famous stone landmarks which stand out like the giants from the sea. The walk passes through a range of landscapes and sights, from national park, famous surfing spots and deserted beaches, to wild coastlines, waterfalls, lush(茂盛的)forests, historic lighthouses. Day walks and shorter three-hour walk such as The Wreck Beach Walk or the Lighthouse Cemetery and Lookout Walk can also be enjoyed.So next time when you’re looking for a beach holiday, don’t just think about the holiday towns and the sand, but consider a more active sun holiday. If you have interest in any of the above places, please contact us, and we can give you the best services.36.When you arrive at Amalfi Coast, _______________.A. the scenic beauty can fill you with charmB. the walking can be started from PositanoC. you must be fed up with the footpathD. narrow rocky paths may trap you37.What are the distinct characteristics of Sydney’s Great Coastal Walk?A. It takes more than a week to complete the walkB. It provides visitors with a variety of great landscapesC. It really has the longest coastline in the worldD. It starts from Royal National Park in the south38.From the Great Ocean Walk, Australia we can know that ______. A. most visitors have to finish the 104km walk quicklyB. the Twelve Apostles stand below the surface of the seaC. Apollo Bay is at the end of the Great Ocean WalkD. visitors have various walking choices there39.Where can we probably read the passage?A. A travel magazineB. A handbook to childrenC. An online advertisementD. A poster in a foreign travel agency40.The author intends to _______________.A. introduce the beautiful beaches in CanadaB. present the wonderful beaches in IndonesiaC. tell us the ideal tourist destination for healthD. ask us to join the tourist programBThe Governor’s School is described as a unique opportunity for high school students to involve themselves in math, science, and technology. When I signed up for computer programming, I expected to learn about coding (编程)). However, what I didn’t expec t was that I would also learn how to build strong friendships.Just before I went there, I didn’t know what to expect in the school, feeling quite at a loss. A sense of uncertainty about my future was flooding over me. On the first day, the students awkwardly moved around at the opening ceremonies. Although it was embarrassing to admit, I hadn’t been able to succeed in my friendship in the past because I was too focused on myself. This time, I got rid of the desire to share personal stories and instead was eager to ask others about themselves.After sunset on the second night, I heard three girls trying to recall theschedule for an upcoming museum trip. After effective communication, I knew they were Lucy, Megan and Avery. Lucy and Avery were in environmental science, and Megan was studying mathematics.We had a lot in common among us four, such as our love for movies, which strengthened our friendships. Meanwhile, we were able to introduce each other to new activities. Lucy introduced us to anime(日本动漫). Enthusiastically, Megan encouraged us to play tennis. Avery and I kept the other two motivated to work out at the gym. The fact that none of us was particularly skilled with equipment resulted in shared laughter almost every day.After four weeks, I left with the ability to successfully code an educational computer game. More importantly, I also left with knowledge about the code of friendship--- the fact that I could make more friends in a month by showing interest in them than I could in a year by trying to attract others’ interest in me.41.The author went to the Governor’s School to originally learn how to ___________.A. code computer programsB. make friends with othersC. develop her personal hobby and interestD. share her personal stories with others42.The author had failed in her friendship mainly because _____________.A. she was embarrassed to stay with her friendsB. she cared little about othersC. she longed to know about othersD. she focused her attention on coding43.What can welearn from thepassage? 44.According to the author, the success code of friendship is _____________.A. getting others to be interested inherB. adding more laughter to others’ lifeC. keeping others motivated by storiesD. becoming more interested in others45.What does the author tell us in the passage?A. Her interest in the Governor’sSchoolB. A close relation with threeschoolmatesC. Her experience in the Governor’sSchoolD. Big changes in her studyCIn some islands north of Scotland, if head lice (头虱)left their host, he became sick and feverish. Therefore, sick people had lice put in their hair intentionally. There was a method in their madness: As soon as the lice had settled in again, the patient improved. The story explains the confusion of cause and effect. If the lice leave the sick host, it is because he has a fever and they simply get hot feet, and when the fever breaks, they return. Such false causally (假因果关系)misleads us every day.Consider the headline: “ Fact: Women Who Use Shampoo XYZ Eve ry Day Have Stronger Hair.” It says very little--- least of all, that the shampoo makes your hair stronger. It might simply be the other way round: women with strong hair tend to use Shampoo XYZ--- and perhaps that’s because it says “especially for thick h air” on the bottle.Another example: Scientists found that long periods in the hospital did harm to patients. But, clearly, patients who are dismissed immediately are healthier than those who must stay on for treatment.A. Avery studied mathematics in the schoolB. The four girls had a wonderful time at schoolC. Megan studied environmental scienceD. The four girls had nothing in commonRecently I read that students get better grades at school if their homes contain many books. This study was surely a shot in the arm for booksellers, but it was also false causality. This simple truth is that educated parents tend to value their children’s education more than uneducated ones do, and they often have more books at home. In short, a dust-covered copy War and Peace alone isn’t going to influence anyone’s grades; what counts is parents’ education levels, as well as their genes.There was also the supposed relationship between the birth rate and the numbers of stork(鹤))pairs in Germany. Both were in decline, and if you plot (描绘)them on a graph(曲线图), the two lines of development from 1965 to 1987 appeared almost the same. Does this mean the storks actually bring babies? Obviously not. This was purely accidental connection.In conclusion: Connection is not causality. Take a closer look at linked events: Sometimes what is presented as the cause turns out to be the effect, or just the other way round, and sometimes there is no link at all--- just like with storks and babies.46.According to the first paragraph, people in some islands north of Scotland _______.A. found a way to get rid of head liceB. used an effective method to keep fitC. made head lice a part of their lifeD. died due to infections with head lice47.Which is an example of false causality?A. Women with strong hair tend to use a certain shampooB. The birth rate and the stork population are connectedC. Longer periods in the hospital benefit patientsD. Lice can make a person sick and feverish48.The underlined phrase “ a shot in the arm” in Paragraph 4 means _________.A. painB. defeatC. guidanceD. encouragement49.According to the author, students get better grades probably because ___________.A. their home are full of booksB. they have read War and PeaceC. their educated parents valueD. their parents are successful education booksellers50.We can draw the conclusion from the passage that ____________.A. connection are pure accidentsB. cause and effect are interdependentC. connections are mostly cause andeffectD. linked events may turn out to beunrelatedDI read somewhere that we spend a full third of our lives waiting. But whereare we doing all of this waiting, and what does it mean to an impatient societylike ours? To understand the issue, let’s take a look at three types of “waits”.The very purest form of waiting is the Watched-Pot Wait. It is without doubtthe most annoying of all. Take filling up the kitchen sink (洗碗池) as an example. There is absolutely nothing you can do while this is going on but keep both eyes fixed on the sink until it’s full. During these waits, the brain slips away from the body and wanders about until the water runs over the edge of the counterand onto your socks. This kind of wait makes the waiter helpless and mindless.A cousin to the Watched-Pot Wait is the Forced Wait. This one requires abit of discipline. Properly preparing packaged noodle soup requires a Forced Wait. Directions are very specific. “Bring three cups of water to boil, add mix, simmer three minutes, remove from heat, let stand five minutes.” I havemy doubts that anyone has actually followed the procedures strictly. After all, Forced Waiting requires patience.Perhaps the most powerful type of waiting is the Lucky-Break Wait. This typeof wait is unusual in that it is for the most part voluntary. Unlike the Forced Wait, which is also voluntary, waiting for your lucky break does not necessarily mean that it will happen.Turning one’s life into a waiting game requires faith and hope, and is strictly for the optimists among us. On the surface it seems as ridiculous as following the directions on soup mixes, but the Lucky-Break Wait well serves those who are willing to do it. As long as one doesn’t come to rely on it, wishingfor a few good things to happen never hurts anybody.We certainly do spend a good deal of our time waiting. The next time you’re standing at the sink waiting for it to fill while cooking noodle sou p that you’ll have to eat until a large bag of cash falls out of the sky, don’t be desperate.You’re probably just as busy as the next guy.51. While doing a Watched-Pot Wait, we tend to ______.A. keep ourselves busyB. get absent-mindedC. grow anxiousD. stay focused52. What is the difference between the Forced Wait and the Watched-Pot Wait?A. The Forced Wait requires some self-control.B. The Forced Wait makes people passive.C. The Watched-Pot Wait needs directions.D. The Watched-Pot Wait engages body and brain.53. What can we learn about the Lucky-Break Wait?A. It is less voluntary than the Forced Wait.B. It doesn’t always bring the desired result.C. It is more fruitful than the Forced Wait.D. It doesn’t give people faith and hope.54. What does the author advise us to do the next time we are waiting?A. Take it seriously.B. Don’t rely on others.C. Do something else.D. Don’t lose heart.55. The author supports his view by________.A. exploring various causes of “waits”B. describing detailed processes of “waits”C. analyzing different categories of “waits”D. revealing frustrating consequences of “waits” 四、阅读表达:In the years of my growing up, Dad was strict with me. He made sure I made my bed and did my homework. He would call in advance to make sure there was no alcohol at the party. I got so angry with him for laying down the law. I would scream, “I hate you!” Dad would yell back, “Good! I don’t care!” Deep down I knew he did.One time at a party, I drank too much alcohol and got so sick. I said, “Call my dad.”Next thing, Dad was carrying me to the car. I woke up the next morning, thinking I would definitely be criticised. As expected, I got a roasting, but I now understand why I needed discipline.Dad was 29 when he got his big roles in films. I had an early start at the age of nine with a role in a 1990s TV series, but it wasn’t until I finished film studies that I pursued my career as an actress. Like those early days for Dad, I faced lots of rejections. Working in such a c ompetitive industry, I’ve sometimes thought, “I can’t do this anymore.”Once, after a trip to Hollywood, I returned to Australia so depressed and spent months in my bedroom painting, listening to Eckhart Tolle’s music and trying to find myself again. D ad sat me down and said, “Alice, I know it’s hard, but it’s all about persistence (坚持不懈).”Now I get to work with Dad a lot, which I love. We are both passionate about acting, which comes from us being so interested in people. If it weren’t for Dad, I wouldn’t be where I am today. He’s my biggest fan, and when you have that in your life you can go a long way.56. What rules did Alice’s father set for her when she was growing up? (no more than 15 words)___________________________________________________________________________57. What does the underlined part in Paragraph 2 mean? (no more than 5 words)__________________________________________________________________________58. What did Alice’s father do when she felt depressed? (no more than 5 words)___________________________________________________________________________59. According to the last paragraph, what do Alice and her father have in common?(no more than 10 words)___________________________________________________________________________60. What do you think of Alice’s father? Please explain. (no more than 20 words)___________________________________________________________________________五、书面表达:25分假设你是晨光中学的李津,英国友好校将派教师来你校参加为期一周的暑期交流活动。

Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context.Monaco Grand PrixThe air is fresh with the heat of early summer as you arrive in the beautiful country of Monaco on the day of the race. Y our 41 to the Monte-Carlo neighborhood is bursting with color as classic styles of European architecture catch your eye. When you reach the race course area, you are led to the harbor where you will watch the race from the 42 of a friend’s yacht (游艇). Soon, the Formula One cars will pull onto the starting point and the race will begin.Each of the cars in the Monaco Grand Prix is 43 , but all of them are fast and modern. The race course also 44 as being complex and difficult, with a frightening hairpin(发夹) turn along a very narrow street. 45 these streets at speeds over 150 kilometers per hour, drivers must take care. Even the slightest 46 could turn a multi-million dollar car into a pile of waste. The driver who claims first place receives an award and will go down 47 as one of the world’s finest drivers.Indianapolis 500On race day the grandstands(大看台) are filled with excitement as you enter the Indianapolis Motor Speedway. Y ou find your seat, 48 yourself against the harsh heat and marvel at the huge black oval(椭圆形的) track below. Moments later, a fleet of Indy Cars rolls onto the track, 49 themselves in 11 neat rows of three. The sound of 33 turning engines rings in your ears, and you cheer with the crowd as the powerful cars take off from the starting line.Unlike Monaco Formula One cars, Indycars are more uniform in their 50 . They tend to be much longer, and reach 260 kilometers per hour. Since the drivers must race for 500 miles, the race is quite long, 51 three to five hours. The resulting wear and tear on each car is managed with short stops. The driver’s excellent team performs 52 at amazing speeds.

Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read.(A)Wild Track is an organization that aims to protect endangered animals like rhinos. They use a computer program that runs photos of animal tracks through an algorithm (演算法). Then the program makes the same observations as a tracker would, allowing scientists to know where individual animals go. However, the program itself needs “training”.It starts with collecting good photos of prints from endangered animals in captivity (圈养). As people send in photos of tracks from animals in the wild, the FIT program can compare it to tracks from animals it “knows.” As the program becomes more accurate, Wild Track hopes it will become a major tool for monitoring any endangered species.Anyone can help Wild Track by taking images of tracks and sending them to a partner organization called . The only tool you need is a digital camera or cellphone. After finding a clear track, place one ruler along the bottom of the footprint and another along the left side. Below the footprint, place a note containing your exact name and the date. Holding the camera or cellphone directly above the track, take a photo showing the footprint, rulers and note. Later, visit and follow the instructions on thesite to send your photo.Wild Track needs photos of footprints made notonly by animals in captivity but also those living inthe wild. In wild places, you should take care not todisturb animals in their natural environment. If youintend to photograph in a wild area that is unknownto you, then you should not go there alone. Instead, go with someone who is familiar with the region andexperienced at tracking.56. How does the writer begin this article aboutWildTrack?A. By discussing the software that it employsB. By praising its recent efforts to raise fundsC. By explaining how and when it was foundedD. By summarizing different opinions about it57. According to this article, which animals areWildTrack mainly interested in?A. Those which cause a threat to human settlementsB. Those which are now at risk of becoming extinctC. Those which have been illegally kept as petsD. Those which disappeared from the Earth long ago58. What does this article talk about in detail?A. A list of locations worth exploringB. A strategy for acquiring equipmentC. A warning not to engage in huntingD. Atechnique containing several steps59. What does the article suggest doing in wild areas?A. Admiring the wild landscapeB. Preparing well for wild weatherC. Leaving wild creatures aloneD. Consuming a diet of wild plants(B)Science fiction paints a future where robotsplay an important part in everyday life. Atechnology firm is trying to make that future areality today with an affordable robot called Artibo.Artibo is small. Its brain,or Al block, is a cube (立方体) that fits in your hand. That block connects toa motor block and two silicon wheels. Assembled,it’s about four inches tall.Artibo is much more than just a robot thatyou program to move around. Artibo’s designerswant it to provide companionship and be aresource for learning coding.With its camera,microphone and connection to a cloud-based Al, it can respond to voice commands or function like a walkie-talkie (对讲机). It talks like a chatbot and can tell bedtime stories. It can even help you learn other languages!Artibo isn’t quite ready for stores yet, though.It’s part of a crowdfunding project. Crowdfunding is a program where you put a request online to a crowd of people. Supporters can then pay large or small amounts to help you finish a project. Artibo will first be available to people who have paid to help bring it into production.Using computer code to program your own toys is nothing new. LEGO first released a robot kit in 1998. Since then, programmable robots have become one of the best-selling units in theLEGC product line. Programming robots might sound comparable to rocket science, but anyone can program one using nothing more than a tablet or a smartphone and code blocks.Code blocks allow you to program simple or complex commands by assembling visual blocks of code on the canvas(画布) of a computer screen. Just drag and drop a variety of code blocks from a programming menu, link them together, and watch how your robot responds. In Artibo’s case coding doesn’t stop there. Unlike other similar programmable toys, Artibo will also allow you to write your own code. So as your familiarity with coding increases, you won’t lose interest in Artibo.60.According to the passage, the purpose of developing Artibo is ______.A.helping people learn anything they want and providing companionshipB.providing a robot that can move, accompany and help people learn codingC.chatting with people, telling bedtime stories and supplying languagesD.helping people raise money on line and creating programmable robots61.What can be concluded from the passage?A.Programming robots is not really complicated.B.Programming robots is advanced like a rocket.C.Programming robots can be used in smartphones.D.Programming robots used in toys is not new at all.62.The passage implies that ______.A.People can programme various orders even without code blocksB.Anyone can control Artibo freely unlike other programming toysC.The more familiar you’re with coding, the more you’ll like ArtiboD.Artibo is popular in the world especially among young people(C)5G, the fifth generation of wireless, promises lightning-fast downloadspeeds andcould lay the foundation for high-techadvancements like self-driving cars. Butlike many new technologies, it's causing concernabout potential health issues.The first generation of wireless introduced mobile phones, and 2G brought texting.3Glaid the groundwork for smartphones, and 4G allowed video streaming and more. 5G isexpected to download data 20 times faster than its predecessor (前任), and some experts argue it could bemuch faster.T oo much of a good thing?It’s not just about streaming data faster, it’sabout streaming more of it. On a 5G network, auser can download a movie instantly, and data willflow between connected objects without delay. Theamount of data people use on mobile devices hasgone up 40 times since 2010 and is only expectedto increase. 5G networks are wireless companies’attempts to satisfy that demand.Uncertain effectsThe untested nature of 5G, and the extensivenessof its infrastructure (基础设施), has some worried that the increased exposure could have serious health effects.Wireless safety advocates(倡议人士) have called for morestudies on the effects of the exposure, and onegroup is trying to stop the installment of 5G networks inChicago’s neighborhoods.The federal government has safety rulesthat wireless companies must obey thatlimit human exposure to radio waves, includingfrequencies used with 5G.Wireless industry association CTIA saystypical exposure to 5G infrastructure iscomparable to Bluetooth devices and babymonitors,and there is no scientific evidence of negative health effects.Still, assurances from government agencies and industry operators are not enough for Chicagoresident Judy Blake. Additional studies on 5G’shealth impacts likely wouldn’t soothe her either. She said, “People can’t choose whether or not to beexposed to this radiation.”“I don’t need another test. The only test that’sgoing to happen now is people’s lives, ”said Blake, 67.Only time will tell?Though little is known about the long-termhealth impact of the millimeter waves that 5Goperates on, some research has shown short-termexposure could be problematic, said Joel Moskowitz,a public health expert at the Universityof Californiaat Berkeley.The eyes and sweat glands (腺体) are among several body parts studies have shown could be at risk, Moskowitz said. Insects and plant life could also be affected, he added.The millimeter waves used in 5G are absorbed by the upper layers of skin, potentially causing the temperature of the skin to rise, said Suresh Borkar, senior lecturer in the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering at the Illinois Institute of Technology. The effects of extended rises in skin temperature “become a big unknown,” he said.This isn’t the first time people will come into contact with millimeter waves: They’re also used in airport body scanners, said Lav V arshney, assistant professor of electrical and computer engineering at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. Still, it’s the first time the high-frequency waves will be used on such a scale, and concerns surrounding new technologies are common throughout history.“When cars first started replacing horse-drawn carriages, people were afraid of what the health impacts of traveling at high speeds would be,”V arshney said. “There has always been occurrence of this fear.”63.Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?A.5G is faster but not safe to human beings.B.5G features faster and more in transferring.C.5G can meet people’s any demand in theory.D.5G just makes little impact on people’s health.64.What can be inferred from the passage?limeter waves certainly affect people’s health seriously.limeter waves will cause the skin’s temperature to rise.C.It’s obvious that many scientists object to 5G technology.D.It’s hard to say whether millimeter waves do damage to health.65.The word soothe in the last but 7 paragraphs most probably means ______.A.to make somebody feel calm or less worried.B.to make somebody feel happy or more excited.C.to make somebody feel disappointed or less satisfactory.D.to make somebody feel inspired or more energetic.66.The best title for this passage is ______.A.5G’s Advantages and DisadvantagesB.The Development of WirelessC.5G Health ConcernD.5G Future PredictionSection CDirections: Complete the following passage by using the sentences in the box. Each sentence canW hether you’re on social media orsending a text message, youencounter emoji(表情符号) regularly. 67 . While mostpeople’s enthusiasm for emoji increased inthe smartphone era, Japan has been crazyfor emoji since 1999. Designer Shigetaka Kuritainvented emoji for a Japanese phone company 20years ago as a way to make it easier to expressideas in a short message. The word emoji can betranslated as“picture character”from Japanese. After the release of Kurita’s emoji, rival phonecompanies in Japan began creating their ownemoji. Many emoji on our digital devices todayare imported from Kurita’s original set of emoji.Japan’s love for emo ji continued well into the2000s before the rest of the world discoveredthem. Apple Inc. officially introduced an emojifunction in their software in 2011. Soon, otherphone companies from around the world madeit easier for their customers to use emoji.68 .As you scroll (滑动) through your phone, you cansee the wide selectionof available emoji. Morethan 2,000 emoji are in existence now, with more being released eachyear. These numbers show the popularity anddemand for emoji.Why? Because words alone can’t convey thecomplete meaning of a digital message. In digitalcommunication, emoji express a tone or mood. More than 90 percent of people online use emojiespecially ones that show emotion like heartsand smileys. 69 . For example, they might send a red heart emoji as aresponse that they really like something instead of writing, “I love that.”Some emoji are also abstract enough forpeople to use in any way they like. Y ou cansend an emoji as an inside joke, which is onlyunderstood between you and your friend. 70 . Nor do they belong to a specificculture. Y ou and I give emoji meaning, becauseemoji is a language that belongs to all of us.IV. Summary Writing71. Directions:Read the following passage. Summarize the main idea and the main point(s) of the passage in no more than 60 words. Use your own words as far as possible.People choose to become entrepreneurs(创业者) for a wide variety of reasons. One important reason is, of course, financial reward. If youown your own business and it becomes successful, you can reaphuge financial rewards. And as an entrepreneur,dependent on how muchyour boss decides to give you; it’s limitedonly by the success of your business. And speaking of bosses, nothaving a supervisor is another major advantage of becoming anentrepreneur. Entrepreneurs are often independent thinkers whowant to be in charge of projects, rather than having others tellthem what to do. They often have big dreams that they wantto pursue rather than making someone else’s dream cometrue. For many entrepreneurs, starting a business is a way ofsolving a problem or h elping people receive something theyneed. It’s a way to change the world for the better.Being an entrepreneur isn’t easy,however,nor is it always fun. Entrepreneurs often have towork long hours, especially early on when they’retrying to get their business es off the ground. Th at’s the reason entrepreneurs need to have a strong work ethic (伦理). Employees can work 40 hoursa week and then stop, but for an entrepreneur,there’s no end in sight.That’s why another feature of successfulentrepreneurs is passion; they have to be excited about what they’re doing to be willing towork hard for it. Entrepreneurs also need goodcommunication skills to pass on that passion toothers. That’s important for finding investors,getting people to buy products and attractingemployees.Entrepreneurs also need to be creative peoplewho are able to find solutions to problemsthey encounter. This is important from the verybeginning, when the entrepreneur comes up with an initial concept of a business. Buteven after that initial step, creative thinking iscontinually necessary to adapt to changingsituations and to solve problems that come up.V.

Thus, understandingwhat influences originality can have important and potentially 42 consequences for businesses. Ravi Mehta,a professor of business administration, shows that adopting a(n) 43 that imagines how the user would feelwhile using a product leads designers to experience greater empathy(同感), which 44 creativity and, in turn,outcome originality for new product design.There are two ways that the product designer can 45 the consumer’s product usage.

For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read.(A)When she was ten years old, Isadora Duncan dropped out of school to teach people dance. If that job was leftto any other ten-year-old, it would have turned out frustrating, difficult, and a littlediscouraging.But Duncan was different. Not only was she already talented enough to earn moneyeven at that age, but she also had a rare kind of confidence that helped her treat troubles asfuel—something to elevate the fire that is already burning inside of her.York to join a theatre company, sheIt’s no surprise, then, that when she moved to Newfound herself restricted. The existing dancing style, their way of operating—all of thisseemed to her the work of a misguided past. Duncan was very direct about what she wanted,confidently telling people she had a different vision of dance that she was going to spread in the world. This, naturally, led to ridicule and laughs early on, but as she built up her work, these instances became less frequent.Today, she is remembered as “The Mother of Dance,” with much of the modern art owing its expressive style to her influence. Inspired by the ancient Greeks, she brought the style to life.In her autobiography (自传), one of the things Duncan frequently refers to as the basis of her expressive spiritis the fact that she had a childhood where she wasn’t constantly watched. The expectations of hermother (whoraised her) were open-ended. It was the freedom of this lifestyle that drove her to see what she could do.Growing up, before she left school, she was told one of two things: that she was either completely useless orthat she was a genius. There was nothing in between. Even when she started working, people either bowed to her orthey basically ignored her. But there wasn’t one moment Duncan doubted her own genius.There is an old quotation “if you judge a fish by its ability to climb a tree, it will live its whole life believingthat it is stupid.” And it captures an important truth. At school, Isadora Duncan was a failure. In the dance hall, she gave form to brilliance.56. What does the underlined phrase “treat troubles as fuel” mean?A. Duncan used troubles to push her forward towards her dream.8B. Duncan was good at burning away everyday troubles.C. Troubles turned Duncan into a confident girl.D. Troubles lit the fire of dancing in Duncan.57. Which of the following is TRUE about Duncan?A. Her experience in New York was the foundation of her career.B. Her teaching job when she was little destroyed her confidence.C. Her dancing style was not very well received at the beginning.D. Her mother set higher expectation on her than she could bear.58. What does the author try to tell the readers in the last paragraph?A. It is useless climbing a tree to catch fish.B. Everybody is a genius in his own way.C. Miseries come from human stupidity.D. Teachers can impact students greatly.59. What is this passage mainly about?A. Isadora Duncan’s childhood and her achievements today.B. Duncan’s career development and other dancers’ opinions of her.iences and the reasons for her success.C. Isadora Duncan’s early experD. Duncan’s high status in the dancing world and her unique expressive style.(B)Taking your pulse during physical activity allows you to measure how hard you are exercising. You should exercise to stay within your target heart range.910Increasing your heart rate is a key part of exercise, but it is important that your heart rate is not too high or too low. If you are a beginner, you should also be able to breathe comfortably while exercising. This will ensure that you are exercising at a level that is safe and effective for your body.The chart below illustrates target heart rate ranges for exercise based on the maximal heart rate for selected ages. Here are the steps for using the chart:?If you are doing moderate exercise , your heart rate should be closer to the 50% range.?If you are doing vigorous exercise , your heart rate should be closer to the 85% range. ?Try to stay in the 50–85% range when exercising by increasing or decreasing exercise intensity.Measure your exercise heart rate in beats per minute (BPM).Look at the chart.- Find your age. If your age falls between the ages listed, round up to the next older age listed. - Compare your heart rate to the target exercise range.?Use your index finger (食指) and middle finger. Don ’t use your thumb (拇指) —it has a pulse of its own.?Place these two fingers on your wrist, just below the base of the thumb. ?Count the number of beats (pulses) for 15 seconds.?Take this number and multiply by 4 to find your heart rate in beats per minute. For example, if you count60. Which of the following is TRUE?A. Exercise intensity can be reflected by a person’s heart rate.B. The faster your heart rate is, the more effective the exercise is.C. Vigorous exercise will definitely present a threat to people’s safety.D. The target exercise heart rate range for a 45-year-old is 90–149 BPM.1161. A 34-year-old man is running and the number of pulses he takes for 15 seconds is 40.His fitness coach had better tell him _____________.A. “You are doing fine.”B. “You can run faster.”C. “You should slow down a bit.”D. “You should drink some water.”62. What is the purpose of this passage?A. To advise people to form a habit of taking their pulses while exercising.B. To inform people of the target heart rate zone for those aged 60 and under.C. To tell people the importance of maintaining moderate amount of exercise.D. To show people how to measure heart rate to keep proper exercise intensity.(C)andA tiny clue found in ancient deposits has unlocked big secrets about Greenland’s pastfuture climate. Just beyond the northwest edge of the vast Greenland Ice Sheet, researchers havediscovered lake mud that have survived the last ice age. The mud, and remains of common flies init, record two interglacial periods(间冰期)in northwest Greenland.Although researchers have long known these two periods—the early Holocene and Last Interglacial—experienced warming in the Arctic, the mix of fly species shows that Greenland waseven warmer than previously thought. “As far as we know, it has never been found in Greenland.We think this is the first time anyone has reported it in ancient deposits or modern lakes there,ow far north it migrated (迁徙).”Axford said. “We were really surprised to see hsensitivity to This new information could help researchers better measure Greenland’swarming, by testing and improving models of climate and ice sheet behaviour. Those modelss ice sheet might respond to man-made globalcould then improve predictions of how Greenland’warming. After all, Greenland covers 80 per cent of the Arctic country and holds enough ice toequal 20 feet of global sea level. “Northwest G reenland might feel really remote, but whathappens to that ice sheet is going to matter to everyone in every coastal city around the world,said Yarrow Axford, an associate professor in the team. “One of the big uncertainties in climate science is how fast the Earth changes when it gets warmer. Geology gives us an opportunity to seewhat happened when the Earth was warmer than today,” said Axford.12People might be surprised to see how today’s Greenland looked during the last two interglacial periods. During the Last Interglacial, global sea levels increased by 15 to 30 feet,ice sheets. However, now researchers largely due to thinning of Greenland and Antarctica’sice sheet experienced stronger warming than previously thought, believe northern Greenland’swhich could mean that Greenland is more responsible for that sea-level rise.Finding lake deposits older than about 10,000 years, however, has been historically very difficult in Greenland. To measure these ancient temperatures, researchers look to ice cores (冰核) and lake deposits. Since ice and lake deposits form by a gradual buildup on annual layers of snowor mud, these cores contain history of the past. By looking through the layers, researchers can obtain climate clues from centuries ago.63.Why are the remains of flies mentioned in the first two paragraphs?A. They serve as evidence that there is still life in the Northwest Greenland.B. They were one of the many ancient lives that were left in the Greenland mud.C. They are indicators that Greenland was much warmer than previously thought.D. They help the researchers realize that there was once a warm period in the Arctic.64.The new information about Greenland is important because______________.A. researchers have no idea how to measure Greenland’s warming speedto warmingB. it can help researchers better predict Greenland’s responseC. people should be more sensitive to the changes in the ice in GreenlandD. it is uncertain how fast the Earth changes with man-made global warming65.Which of the following can be inferred from the passage?A. It is easier for today’s scientiststo find ancient lake deposits.B. People are surprised at the landscape feature of Greenland today.C. Researchers measure the changing temperatures by directly examining mud.D. Greenland holds enough ice that might one day threaten life in coastal cities.66.Which do you think is the best title of the passage?13A. Greenland Used to Be Much GreenerB. Earth Once Experienced Warm PeriodsC. Coastal Cities Warned of Coming DisastersD. Northwest Greenland, A Perfect DestinationSection C (8分)Directions: Read the following passage. Fill in each blank with a proper sentence given in the box.Each sentence can be used only once. Note that there are two more sentences than you need.South Africa still has a long way to go on the right to foodA. As a result, questions of hunger are largely absent in South African politics.B. Handling food injustice requires a transformation of the undesirable structure of the foodsystem.C. Therefore, the government has put forward numerous food and nutrition security programs tofight against hunger.D. This means that smaller scale producers, processors and retailers are squeezed out.E. Hunger, lack of nutrition and related illnesses are not equally spread.F. There are international examples of governments taking their obligations seriously with regardto the right to food.Fifty-four percent of South Africans are hungry or at risk of hunger. Hunger affects people’s health, as well as their ability to live full and productive lives because the rights to dignity, healthand education are affected by hunger.______67_____ There are significant race, class and gender differences. For example, blackSouth Africans are 22 times more likely to be food insecure compared with white South Africans.Food insecurity is defined as not having physical, social and economic access to sufficient, safe,and nutritious food that meets dietary needs and food preferences for an active and healthy life.This unequal distribution indicates a situation of severe food injustice in South Africa. Yetfrom the research with urban farmers it’s clear that people do not know of the right to food, anddon’t see unequal acces s to nutritious food as an injustice. ______68_____While there are14frequent protests around access to jobs, education, housing, water and electricity, we rarely, if ever,see protests about access to food.One of the drivers of unequal access to food is the way in which the industrial food systemworks. For example, a few large companies dominate each aspect of the food value chain.______69_____Because the large companies dominate the supply chain, they are able tomaximize profits at the expense of small-scale producers, to whom they pay very low prices.______70_____It needs to ensure that marginalized producers, processors and retailers havean opportunity to earn a decent living. At the same time corporate dominance needs to beaddressed.Anyway, at the most basic level, it requires that South Africans know they have a right tofood in the first place.IV. Summary writing (10分)71. Directions: Read the following passage. Summarize the main idea and the main point(s) of thepassage in no more than 60 words. Use your own words as far as possible.Most of us — even those at the top — struggle with public-speaking anxiety. When I ask myclients wh at makes them nervous, invariably they respond with the same answers: “I don’t likebeing watched”, “I don’t like the eyes on me” or “I don’t like being in the spotlightTo understand why, we need to go way back to prehistoric times, when humans regarded eyeswatching us as an existential threat. Those eyes were likely predators (肉食动物) and people wereterrified of being eaten alive. The bad news is that our brains have transferred the ancient fear ofbeing watched into public speaking. In other words, public-speaking anxiety is in our DNA.Fortunately, there is a solution: human generosity. The key to disarming our panic button is toturn the focus away from ourselves and toward helping the audience. Studies have shown that anincrease in generosity indeed leads to a decrease in amygdala(扁桃腺) activity, which isresponsible for our panic feeling in the brain. When we are kind to others, we overcome the senseof being under attack and start to feel less nervous.olutely possible to become a generous speaker. To Admittedly, this is hard to do. But it’s absbegin with, when you start preparing for a presentation, the mistake you often make is startingwith the topic. Instead, you should start with the audience. Identify the audience’s needs a message that speaks directly to those needs. Also, you are the most nervous right before you15speak. This is the moment when your brain is telling you, “Everyone is judging me.” But it is exactly the moment when you should refocus your brain. Over time, your brain will begin to get it, and you will become less nervous.V.

Happier Babies Have an EdgeParents and teachers want children to grow up to be happy and successful.___46___ A wide range of research, however, indicates happiness brings success in adults, and achievements do not always make adults happier.Recently in new study, John K. Coffey II, assistant professor of psychology at Sewanee, the University of the South, found that happiness during infancy (婴儿期) predicted childhood IQ and adult educational success.In his 29-year study, Coffey used the Fullerton Longitudinal Study (FLS). In 1978 the FLS research team recruited 130 parents with babies for a study that now has run for more than 30 years. ___47___ When each baby was 18 months old, one parent reported how often his or her baby expressed positive and negative emotions and researchers measured the infant’s IQ. When babies were children (ages 6 to 8), they completed IQ tests. When babies had grown into 29-year-old adults, they reported how many years of education they had completed and their life satisfaction.As expected, Coffey found that regardless of intelligence during infancy or parents’ wealth, happier babies were more likely to graduate from high school and college. ___48___ It suggests that happier babies learn more between infancy and childhood.___49___ Parents wishing to help their children enjoy greater happiness can focus on small changes they can make in their day-to-day lives to create more positive moments. Parents do notneed to aim for intense experiences or “best day ever” for their children. Although peak experiences can be fun, they also tend to be tiring for both children and their parents, which can lead to anxiety and conflict.Currently, Coffey and other researchers are exploring when and why some children are happier than others or whether we can increase it. Happiness during infancy and childhood is predicted by relationships with caregivers and teachers or by learning new skills. Inexpensive and easy-to-do activities like practising acts of kindness or appreciation can boost happiness. ___50___A. We often think that achieving success will ultimately make us happy.B. We can use these activities to help children grow into happy and successful adults.C. To test his theory, Coffey looked at how intensely children’s emotions are experienced.D. These happy babies aren’t just growing up to be successful, but they are also happy adults.E. Further, happier babies had more growth in their IQ scores between infancy and childhood.F. Another important clarification is that happiness is about how often emotions are experienced.G. Early on, parents reported on their background, for instance, education level and employment.【答案】46.

Following increasing demands for the return of artistic objects that were removed decades or centuries ago, some of the world’s leading museums have signed a declaration that they will not hand back the ancient artifacts(器物)to their countries of origin. They say people all over the world have only been ableto fully appreciate ancient civilizations because these museums have provided access to these artistic objects. The ancient civilizations would not be so deeply admired today if these ancient artifacts were not so widely available to an international public in major museums throughout Europe and America. For example, Egyptian culture would not have become so well-known if the museums had not put Egyptian mummies on show.The British Museum has not signed the declaration, but says it fully supports it. Over the recent years, it has faced growing pressure to hand back the Elgin Marbles, sculptures taken from the Parthenon in Athens, Greece, in the 19th century. But the British Museum has said that the Museum is the best possible place for them.“They must remain here if the museum is to continue to achieve its aim, which is to show the world to the world,”said the director of the museum. 55.What reason do some museums provide for NOT handing back the ancient objects?A.Only in these museums can the objects be fully appreciated by the world.B.It is better for those objects to remain at a certain place than to be moved around.C.They need those well-known ancient objects to attract people from all over the world.D.Ancient civilizations can only be admired when they are removed from their home countries 56.Which of the following is NOT mentioned as one of the“countries of origin”in the article?A.Turkey. B.Britain. C.Egypt. D.Greece.57.What does the underlined phrase“the world”mean in“show the world to the world”?A.The global village. B.The leading museums.C.The ancient civilizations. D.The international public.58.The British Museum is to hand back the ancient artifacts to their countries of origin.A.ready B.desperate C.unwilling D.supportive(C)Even though she’s just 5 years old, Cindy Smart speaks five languages. She’s a good reader. She can tell time and do simple math, including multiplication and division. Cindy looks like an average doll, with long, blond hair, baby-blue eyes, and a button nose.But loaded with some devices, Cindy is the first doll that can see, think, and do as she’s told. The eagle-eyed Cindy follows in the path of other breakthrough toys like Sony’s barking Robot Aibo, which was the first to popularize voice command in the late 1990s. Cindy takes Aibo’s innovations(创新)one step beyond: she not only follows instructions but also recognizes shapes, colors and words, and remembers. The effect is a doll that appears to be learning.The toy company which produced Cindy Smart spent a decade trying to see how much human nature it could breathe into an inanimate(无生命的)object. Its engineers began creating minibots that sense light, sounds, and pressure. However, without the sense of sight, their toys seemed to be lacking in one of the abilities that life-forms use to react to their environment.So how do the engineers make a doll actually see? In Cindy’s case, it’s a multistep process. When presented a text like“I love you”and asked“Can you read this?”Cindy identifies it as one of 70 preprogrammed commands. Then the inbuilt digital camera scans a 15-degree radius in search of number-or letter-shaped objects. Buried in her stomach, Cindy’s 16-bit microprocessor compares the text with her database of 700 words. If it’s a match,“I love you,”she says. 59.This passage most likely appears in a .A.medical report B.classified adC.science journal D.music magazine60.According to the passage, which of the following statements is true about Robot Aibo?A.It could recognize shapes and colors.B.It could respond to spoken commands.C.It came onto the market no later than 1990.D.It was created much later than Cindy Smart.61.The underlined“it”in the third paragraph most likely refers to .A.the process B.the object C.the doll D.the company 62.According to the passage, how can Cindy“see”?A.She recognizes any text as“I love you.”B.She is equipped with a camera to search for text.C.She is instructed by an engineer standing next to her.D.She makes contact with the shapes of the text with her stomach.(D)If it takes Kate twenty seconds to add 12 and 26, while Terry can do the sum in a quarter the time on his pocket calculator, how much better grades will Terry get than Kate in the maths exam?Pocket calculators are as cheap to buy as a pair of shoes, and as essential to thousands of school children as a pencil and eraser. Schools have tried to limit their use, by allowing them in science lessons, to save time but by not allowing them to be used in maths classes. When children do their homework, a pocket calculator is a must. Nowadays in Britain, calculators can be used freely in school examinations, and already in many schools the only sound to be heard during a mathematics examination is the sound of children tapping out their answers.Many parents feel that their children are not being given a basic understanding of the facts of maths.“The process of addition, division, subtraction and multiplication is part of a training inlogic which is important for every child. It teaches them to take series of steps necessary in coming to a conclusion,”says a local maths teacher.“With a calculator, the child can reach the right answer, but have no idea at all how he got there.”Another teacher in the same school disagreed.“Of course the children understand the principles(基本原理)behind what they do on the calculator. It makes no difference to the mental processes they go through, except to make them much faster, and less boring.”“It’s far easier to teach them to completely understand the idea of division and multiplication by making them understand which button they need to push than totalk about apples being cut in pieces,”said another teacher, who uses calculators to keep the interest of his class.In any case, the pocket calculator is here to stay; it’s taking the stress out of mental labor in all sorts of ways.63.From the passage we learn that .A.in Britain students are encouraged by schools to use pocket calculatorsB.parents use the calculators to keep the interest of their childrenC.people have different opinions on whether pocket calculators should be used in maths classesD.all the teachers agree that pocket calculators should be used in classes but not in school examinations64.As a local maths teacher says, children can reach the right answer with a calculator, but they .A.really don’t know how they can get better gradesB.have no idea how to use the calculator properlyC.can’t understand whether the answer is rightD.don’t know how they get it65.Which of the following is NOT true?A.Calculators used to be as cheap as a pair of shoes.B.Some schools don’t allow the students to use pocket calculators in maths class.C.How to add, divide, subtract and multiply is a question of maths.D.It’s easy to calculate with a calculator.66.The author stands for the opinion that .A.students should be allowed to use pocket calculators freelyB.since the pocket calculator has been created, it should be made use ofC.pocket calculators shouldn’t be used by students in maths classesD.Terry should get grades four times better than KateDirections: Read the following passage which is followed by several questions. Give an answer to each question as required.(E)Many artists late in the last century were in search of a means to express their individuality(个性). Modern dance was one of the ways some of these people sought to free their creative spirit. At the beginning there was no exact technique or no foundation from which to build. In later years, trial, error and genius founded the techniques and the principles of the movement. Eventually, innovators even learned from ballet, but first they had to abandon all that was academic so that the new could be discovered. The beginnings of modern dance were happening before Isadora Duncan, but she was the first person to bring the new dance to general audiences and saw it accepted.Her search for a natural movement form sent her to nature. She believed movement should be as natural as the swaying(摇摆)of the tree and the rolling waves of the sea and should be in harmony with the movements of the Earth. Her great contributions are in three areas.First, she began the expansion of the kinds of movements that could be used in dance. Before Duncan danced, ballet was the only type of dance performed in concert. In the ballet the feet and legs were emphasized, with virtuosity(精湛技巧)shown by complicated positions and movements. Duncan performed dance by using all her body in the freest possible way. Her dance came fromher heart and soul. She was one of the pioneers who broke tradition so others might be able to develop the art.Her second contribution lies in dance costumes. She gave up corsets(紧身衣), ballet shoes and still costumes. These were replaced with long loose dresses, bare feet, and unbound hair. She believed in the natural body being allowed to move freely, and her dress displayed this idea.Her third contribution . In her performance she used the symphonies of great masters, including Beethoven and Wagner, which was not the usual custom.She was as exciting and eccentric(古怪的)in her personal life as in her dance.67.What would be the best title of the passage?(Please answer within 8 words.)68.Please fill in the blank in the fifth paragraph with proper words or phrases to complete the sentence.(Please answer within 8 words.)69.According to the passage, what does the following paragraph most probably discuss?(Please answer within 8 words.)70.Translate the underlined sentence into Chinese.第Ⅱ卷(共30分)V.
