Gong Linna，renowned Chinese musician and founder of Chinese New Art Music，put her music teaching methods to practice for the first time at the Tracing Roots practice concert and music festival of the Affiliated High School of Peking University on May 23.
The first song of the concert，Search High and Low，is an allusion（暗指）to the classical poem Li Sao，"The road ahead will be long. I shall search high and low." It's arranged to be sung by all performers，indicating that we should all search high and low for our roots," Gong says.
To explore the education and the popularization of Chinese music，in 2017，Gong established a research and development team，which includes ethnomusicologist，Du Yaxiong，and music historian，Zhao Zhongming，to deliberate her music teaching methods and summarize the vocal skills of Chinese music.
Gong believed that the popularization of Chinese music should rely on primary and secondary schools rather than music academies. The children's passion for music and their outstanding performance amazed Gong，"When singing，they are completely immersed in the music. Music brings light and richness to one's spiritual world. So，learning to sing is never about passing examinations，but about enjoying the music.”
Lu Yueming，instructor of the school's art center，said，"The children worked really hard and kept in mind Gong's instructions. Seeing their performance，I know that they truly fell in love with traditional Chinese music.”
"Seeing the children perform my pieces, I realized I should write more songs for them," Lao Luo, Gong's husband said proudly. "It's a great encouragement for me to see how much they like the songs, and they really need content related to Chinese culture." With an international vision, Gong will continue to write songs based on Chinese folk music or ancient poems.
Gong said children should learn about the beauty of Chinese music. Only when you know about your own sounds, can you have cultural confidence.
4. Why is the song Search High and Low arranged at the concert?
A. Because Gong is a renowned Chinese musician.
B. Because people are expected to search their roots.
C. Because Gong's music teaching method is practical.
D. Because Gong wants to deliberate her music teaching method.
5. What should the popularization of Chinese music depend on according to Gong?
A. Music academies.
B. The support of the government.
C. Primary and secondary schools.
D. Famous musicians across the country.
6. What is Gong's future plan in music?
A. She will train more children to study abroad.
B. She will perform more concerts to promote Chinese music.
C. She will help children learn about the beauty of various types of music.
D. She will write more songs based on Chinese folk music or ancient poems.
7. What's the best title of the passage?
A. Creating Music Helps Cultural Confidence
B. Gong Linna—My Dramatist

Space Hotel Promises Guests A Truly Out-Of-This-World Vacation Looking for a true out-of-this-world vacation？Then you are in luck！On Thursday，April5，Texas-based start-up Orion Span announced they were taking reservations for Aurora（极光）Station，the world's first luxury hotel in space，which is expected to launch in 2021 and begin welcoming visitors by 2022.
The pill-shaped space station，which begins construction in 2019，will measure 43.5 feet long and 14.1feet wide—about the size of a large private jet's cabin—when completed. It will accommodate four guests in two private suites and two crew members，most likely former astronauts. Hovering about 200 miles above Earth，Aurora Station will circle the planet once every 90 minutes，enabling guests to enjoy 16 spectacular sunrises and sunsets daily，as well as scores of the breathtaking northern and southern auroras that the hotel is named after.
While admiring the beauty of our planet，tourists can eat non-astronaut food and drinks or entertain themselves with playing cards. Those hoping to do something more worthwhile will be able to engage in astronaut-like experiments such as growing food in a special environment. The Wi-Fi enabled spacecraft will make it easy for guests to share their experiences with friends and family members on Earth. At the end of the week and half-long vacation，returning guests will be treated to a special "hero's welcome"，similar to the one experienced by astronauts returning from a real mission.
Before the once-in-a-lifetime trip, guests will have to undergo the three-month-long special training learning how to move in a weightless environment, along with the basics of spaceflight and orbital mechanics. Also, before you start packing your bags, you will have to pay $9.5 million for the 12-day round-trip vacation.
While several companies are planning to build hotels in space, Orion Span hopes to transform sections
of used rockets floating in space into hotel rooms, instead of crowding the already messy skies with additional man-made objects.
8. What can be learnt about Aurora Station?
A. People can visit it now.
B. It's construction will last for about 5 years.
C. It can only hold four people in this station.
D. It looks like a pill with the size of a small plane.
9. Why is the station named Aurora Station?
A. Because guests can enjoy spectacular auroras of the Earth.
B. Because the station will give off auroras while travelling.
C. Because the station will run around the auroras of the Earth.
D. Because the hotel is lit up by the auroras of the Earth.
10. What can guests do in a space hotel?
A. Stay there as long as they like.
B. Cook meals like they are at home.
C. Communicate with their family.
D. Receive welcome as a real hero.
11. What can be inferred from the last paragraph?
A. There is little room for people to live on the earth.
B. Too many space crafts have aroused people's concern.
C. Space hotels will be necessary in the near future.
D. Used rockets floating in space are easy to be recycled.
D
The royal family is filled with rules, and one in particular might explain why Princess Charlotte is a princess, but her kids likely won't be.
When it comes to the British royal family, one thing is almost always true: they have a pretty confusing set of official rules and protocols. For instance, the royal family doesn't have a last name. And don't forget the fact that Queen Elizabeth celebrates two birthdays every year.
If your head isn't swimming yet, consider the tradition of royal titles. As a British custom, only the daughter of a prince or a prince's wife may be considered a formal "princess". The latter applies to Kate, who is both a princess and the Duchess of Cambridge thanks to her marriage to Prince William, the Duke of Cambridge. And their children, Prince George and Princess Charlotte, also bear official royal titles because their father is Prince William.
However, while Prince George's future children will also carry their father's royal status, any children that Princess Charlotte has will not automatically be considered princes or princesses. Why? Royal custom dictates that royal titles are passed down via sons, but not daughters.
"Royal titles are inherited through sons, so if Princess Charlotte has children they would not automatically inherit the titles (his or her royal highness) HRH, Prince, or Princess,"
Lucy Hume, associate director of etiquette experts Debrett's, told Town& Country.
Of course, exceptions can (and will!) be made. (Learn about every time the British royal family broke
their own protocol.) The Queen has offered HRH status to other royal offspring in the past, including the children of Queen Elizabeth's daughter, Anne. Although Princess Anne and her husband, Captain Phillips, declined, perhaps Princess Charlotte will be extended the same offer when her own children are born.
12. What's the meaning of the underlined word "protocol" in the first paragraph?
A. Promise.
B. Behavior.
C. Manners.
D. Connection.
13. What kind of child is regarded as "princess"?
A. The son of a princess.
B. The daughter of a prince.
C. The daughter of a princess.
D. The wife of a king.
14. Who is Charlotte's father?
A. Prince George.
B. Elizabeth.
C. Prince William.
D. Captain Philips.
15. What does the last paragraph mainly tell us?
A. Any person can break traditional rules.
B. Not every person must obey traditional rules.
C. Any British royal family member has their own title.
D. Maybe the British royal family will break their own rules.

If you've been feeling a lot sleepy in your daily life，here are some tips to picking up your energy levels. But first，you should make sure if you're experiencing some serious illnesses. 16 ，keep these tips in mind.
The first recommendation is to exercise. Although it may seem difficult to work out when you're tired，it turns out that physical activity can actually give you more energy. The second thing to work on is to go to sleep early enough to get a full night's sleep，preferably so that you wake up naturally without the need for your alarm. 17 .Thus，another useful tip is to take a nap during the afternoon. Naps can restore your mind and body without taking up too much time，regaining your energy and raising working efficiency. The best length of time for a nap is about 20 minutes. Shorter，and you won't get much out of it. 18 .
19 .Drinking plenty of water and fluids throughout the day is one important way to stay energized，since dehydration（脱水）leaves us in low sprits. Some experts say that eating smaller meals more often throughout the day can help maintain energy and balance blood sugar levels. Be aware also that people who are overweight are more likely to experience tiredness easily. 20 ，reducing extra weight could help you gain more energy.
A.If you're overweight
B.B. If you feel uncomfortable
C.As you know，it is quite a good habit
D.However，this goal is hard to achieve in practice
E. Longer，and you may find it harder to sleep at night
F. If you're otherwise healthy but just need some extra energy
G. Other ways to increase energy involve our diet and consumption

“I’m going to miss you so much, Poppy,” said the tall, thin teenager. He bent down to hug his old friend goodbye. He stood up, hugged his parents, and smiled, trying not to let his emotions get the better of him.
His parents were not quite able to keep theirs under control. They had driven their son several hours out of town to the university where he would soon be living and studying. It was time to say goodbye for now at least. The family hugged and smiled through misty eyes and then laughed.
The boy lifted the last bag onto his shoulder, and flashed a bright smile. “I guess this is it,” he said. “I’ll see you back home in a month, okay?” His parents nodded, and they watched as he walked out of sight into th e crowds of hundreds of students and parents. The boy’s mother turned to the dog, “Okay, Poppy, time to go back home.”
The house seemed quiet as a tomb without the boy living there. All that week, Poppy didn’t seem interested in her dinner, her favorite toy, or even in her daily walk. Her owners were sad too, but they knew their son would be back to visit. Poppy didn’t.
They offered the dog some of her favorite peanut butter treats. They even let her sit on the sofa, but the old girl just wasn’t her usual cheerful self. Her owners started to get worried. “What should we do to cheer Poppy up?” asked Dad. “We’ve tried everything.”
“I have an idea, but it might be a little crazy,” smiled Mom. “Without anybody left in the house but us, this place could use a bi t of fun. Let’s get a little dog for Poppy.
It didn’t take long before they walked through the front door carrying a big box. Poppy welcomed them home as usual but when she saw the box, she stopped. She put her nose on it. Her tail began wagging（摆动）ever so slowly, then faster as she caught the smell.

作者出生在美国中西部的一个小城镇，从来没有想过能上大学，但作者通过自己的努力最终考上了大学并通过打工支付自己的学费和日常花销。

作者通过自己的经历告诉我们，生活中的困难教会我们独立和有责任心，我们要尝试从来没有想过自己能做的事情。

Dear James,
I'm really glad to tell you something about the Chinese Ballad Festival which is to be held in our city.
The festival will be held from 8:00 pm to 10:00 pm this Sunday at the People's Art Theatre downtown. In order to promote Chinese folk culture, some famous Chinese ballad masters will give us eight excellent ballad shows, many of which will be on the stage for the first time. What is the most important expectation of the festival is an interactive activity between the audience and performers. I think the evening will be a feast for ballad lovers who are bound to enjoy themselves.
So I'd like to invite you to enjoy the ballad feast together. Looking forward to your reply.
Yours,
Li Hua。
