On the British Museum Entrance Board.BAdriana put down the knife, stepped back and looked at her finished painting. She was usually her own worst critic, but today Adriana was pleased with what she saw. Sunset was her
10、 best work yet! Not that her classmates would agree. Their reaction to her abstract art was always “Whats that supposed to be?” or “Artists use brushes to paint, not knives, string and cloth.” Still, she didnt care. Adriana painted to please herself, not others.When she showed the work to Mr. Marcus
11、, her middle school art teacher, the net day, he shook his head and said sternly, “Please Adriana, Ive had enough of this.” Anyone hearing this comment and its tone would naturally think Mr. Marcus was criticizing her work, but it was his frustration speaking. He loved Adrianas paintings and had rep
12、eatedly begged her to show them publicly. She always refused.As her middle school graduation approached, however, Adriana began worrying about university. Her parents would cover her study fees, but Adriana planned to pay for her university books, art supplies and accommodation herself. So, this tim
13、e, when Mr. Marcus made the suggestion, Adriana agreed. A disbelieving grin appeared on Mr. Marcuss face.The following day, after checking the newspapers and visiting several local real estate offices, Adriana and Mr. Marcus wandered around the town looking for a suitable location. Finally, though,
14、they could not find anything within their price range.At the days end, the pair entered a small coffee shop to rest. Mr. Marcus could see the disappointment on Adrianas face and, as a woman came to take their order, said, “Dont worry. Well find somewhere to show your art.” On hearing this, the woman
15、 said, “Did you say art? You know we show local artists works right here in the caf,” pointing to the paintings hanging on the walls. “Bring a few of your pieces around tomorrow for me to look at. Im Susan by the way, the owner.” After thanking Susan for her offer, Adriana and Mr. Marcus left the ca
16、fe in amazement.The next morning Adriana brought along Sunset and Mr. Marcus the two paintings of Adrianas hed purchased earlier that year. Susan studied the paintings in silence, concentrating hard on each one. After what felt like a lifetime, she turned to Adriana and said, “Id be honoured to hang

20、living on other planets often comes up. Manned bases on the Moon or Mars for example, have long been a dream of many. There is a natural desire to explore as far as we can go, and also to extend humanitys presence on a permanent or at least semi-permanent basis. In order to do this, however, it is n
21、ecessary to adapt to different extreme environments. On the Moon for example, a colony must be self-sustaining and protect its inhabitants from the airless, harsh environment outside.Mars, though, is different. While future bases could adapt to the Martian environment over time there is also the pos
22、sibility of modifying the surrounding environment instead of just co-existing with it. This is the process of terraforming - adjusting Mars atmosphere and environment to make it more Earth-like. But the bigger question is, should we?One of the main issues is whether Mars has any native life or not a
23、nd if it does, should it be preserved as much as possible? If the answer is yes, then large-scale human settlements on Mars should be completely off-limits. Small colonics might be fine, but living on Mars should not be at the expense of any native habitats, if they exist. If Mars is home to any ind
24、igenous life, then terraforming should be a non-issue; it simply should not be done.What if Mars is lifeless? Even if no life exists there, that untouched and unique alien environment needs to be preserved as it is as much as possible. Weve already done too much damage here on our own planet. By stu
25、dying Mars and other planets and moons in their current natural state, we can learn so much about their history and also learn more about our own world. We should appreciate (he differences of other worlds instead of just transforming them to suit our own ambitions.28. What is the best title for the
26、 text?A. A Is there life on Mars?B. Can we adapt to Mars?C. Should we terraform Mars?D. Are Mars and Earth So Different?29. What does the author think we should do if life is found on Mars ?A. Ensure that its not harmed.B. Negotiate with the Martians.C. Change the unpopulated regions.D. Assess the a
27、dvantages and disadvantages.30. What does the underlined word “indigenous” in paragraph 3 mean?A.Complex.B. Native.C. Foreign.D. Intelligent31 How does the author develop his ideas in the text?A. By referring to others research.B. By evaluating different planets.C. By justifying the benefits of terr
28、aforming.D. By arguing in support of one viewpoint.DAfter 400 years, William Shakespeare (1564-1616) is still widely celebrated as a great crafter of language and playwright (剧作家).But he was not the only great master of dramatic writing to die in 1616, and he is certainly not the only writer to have
29、 left a lasting impact on theatre. While less known worldwide, Tang Xianzu is rightly considered Chinas greatest playwright and is highly admired in that country of ancient literary and dramatic traditions.Tang was born in 1550 in Linchuan, Jiangxi Province, and worked as a government official until
30、, in 1598 and aged 49, he retired to focus on writing. Unlike Shakespeares large body of plays and poems, Tang wrote only four major plays: The Purple Hairpin, A Dream under a Southern Bough, Dream of Handan and The Peony Pavilion - widely considered to be his masterpiece. In the latter three, much
31、of the story is told through dream sequences. Tang used these scenes to explore human emotions in ways that challenged the feudal system of his time. It is a similar dream structure that we find in Shakespeare A Midsummer Nights Dream.Tang lived towards the end of the Ming Dynasty (1368-1644) and, s
32、imilarly to Shakespeare, his lasting success was partly due to the growth of theatre as an artistic practice during his lifetime. As in Shakespeares England, it became hugely popular in China, with public theatres opening in different cities and traveling performance groups becoming common. Theatric
33、al audiences started to populate open public spaces, and theatre as a popular form of entertainment found its place outside palaces. However, unlike in Shakespeares England, there was hardly any mixing of the rich with commoners at theatrical events.During this time, the way in which play-texts were
34、 enjoyed, spread and performed also changed. Initially, Chinese dramas had an emphasis on poetic language and were distributed in book form, to be read like novels. They were seldom, if ever, performed. However, from the mid-16th century, kunqu opera, a form of musical drama, spread from southern Ch
35、ina to become a symbol of Chinese culture.While Tang and Shakespeare lived a world away from each other, they share in common the humanity of their drama, their heroic figures, their love for language, a lasting popularity and the anniversary during which we still celebrate them.32.Why does the writ
36、er refer to Shakespeare throughout this article about Tang?A.To compare the writing styles of the writers.B.To emphasize Tangs importance in literature.C.To assess the achievements of these two great writers.D.To examine the different influences of Tang and Shakespeare.33.What distinguishes The Purp
37、le Hairpin from Tangs other plays?A.It does not rely heavily on dream scenes.B.It is widely considered to be his best work.C.It was the only play to be publicly performed.D.It challenged the feudal system of ancient China.34.What characteristic was shared by both English and Chinese theatre during T
38、angs lifetime?A.Music and poetry were present in most performances.B.The popularity of public theatrical performances grew rapidly.C.Different social classes often attended the same performances.D.Most plays were written to be read as novels rather than performed.35.Which of the following would the
39、author probably agree with?A.Tangs plays were superior to his poems.B.Tang is more widely read than Shakespeare.C.Tang is the best playwright in Chinese history.D.Tang and Shakespeare knew of each other s works.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。选项中有两项为多余选项。Up in the aira history
40、of ballooningThe first kind of air transportation was the balloon. People traveled by balloon one hundred years before there were planes or jet aircraft. Those early days of ballooning were exciting, but they were also risky. 36 However, the danger did not stop the balloonists. The first real balloo

The hot air balloon went up 1,000 feet in the sky. 38 They built a fire under the balloon to make the air hot. This made the balloon stay up in the air for a few hours. But their b

They left England on a cold, clear January day. Halfway across, their balloon began to drop toward the water. They threw out some equ
