23、 30,000 fascinating images containing a rich variety of media and including many internationally outstanding works of art. The portraits depict (刻画)the men and women whose lives and achievements helped shape Scotland and the wider world. The Gallery is also home to the NGS s outstanding collection o
24、f photographs which includes around 6,000 works by the early Scottish pioneers of the medium, Robert Adamson and David Octavius Hill as well as new works by leading-edge contemporary photographers.Visitor FacilitiesThe new Portrait Gallery cafe serves a delicious menu of fresh dishes and classic rec
25、ipes, using the very best local ingredients and seasonal produce. Our new shop offers a fresh twist on designled gifts and souvenirs. The Gallery now has all the facilities which todays visitors expect, including a fantastic new lift, an Education suite and disabled access throughout the building.56
26、. What do we learn about the Scottish National Portrait Gallery?A. Every display reflects Scotland.B. It is well-known for its building.C. There are about 6,000 works in it.D.

27、stic and attractiveC. modern and all-round D. beneficial and conventionalB Consumers everywhere are faced with the same dilemma: given limited resources, what sorts of purchases are most likely to produce lasting happiness and satisfaction? Recent research has confirmed that experiential purchases t
28、end to produce greater hedonic (享乐的)gains than material purchases.The reason why experiences improve with time may be because it is possible to think about experiences in a more abstract manner than possessions. For example, if you think back to a fantastic summer from your youth, you might easily r
29、emember an abstract sense of warm sunshine and youthful exuberant (生气勃勃), but youre less likely to remember exactly what you did day-by-day.Material possessions are harder to think about in an abstract sense. The car you bought is still a car, that great new jacket you picked up cheap is still just
30、a jacket. Its more likely the experience of that summer has taken on a symbolic meaning that can live longer in your memory than a possession.Purchasing may have a negative impact on happiness because consumers often buy “joyless” material possessions, resulting in comfort but not pleasure. In gener
31、al, people adapt to experiences more slowly than to material purchase. This can be seen in both negative and positive purchases: hedonic adaptation would result in a positive experience causing more happiness but a negative experience causing less happiness than the comparable material purchase with
32、 the same initial happiness level.Experience, however, seems to be more resistant to these sorts of unfavourable comparisons. It is because of the unique nature of experience. Its more difficult to make an unfavourable comparison when there is nothing directly comparable. After all, each of our yout
33、hful summers is different.Its well established that social comparisons can have a huge effect on how we view what might seem like positive events. One striking example is the finding that people prefer to earn $50,000 a year while everyone else earns $25,000, instead of earning $100,000 themselves a
34、nd having other people earn $200,000.A similar effect is seen for possessions. When there are so many flat-screen HD TVs to choose from, its easy to make unfavourable comparisons between our choice and the others available.58. An abstract sense in the passage refers to awareness of something _.A. yo
35、u cannot think aboutB. you can t remember wellC. you cannot understandD. you cannot see or touch59. If you make an experiential purchase before a material purchase, you may go to_.A. a theatre before going to a storeB. an exhibition before going to a parkC. a mall before going to a grocersD. a marke
36、t before going to a restaurant60. The example of earnings is given to actually indicate_.A. how ridiculous people areB. how people feel contentC. how nearsighted people areD. how people hold prejudice61. It is implied in the passage that, after their material purchases, people might_.A. enjoy their
37、ownership of what they have boughtB. pick every fault in the products they have gotC. regret making a wrong decision to buy the itemsD. leave what theyve purchased untouched at homeCIn a unique research cooperation between Stratasys, Education, R&D departments and MITs Self-Assembly Lab, a new proce
38、ss is being developed, known as 4D Printing.The 4D printing concept, which allows materials to “self-assemble (自行组装)” into 3D structures, was initially proposed by Massachusetts Institute of Technology faculty member Skylar Tibbits. Tibbits and his team combined a strand (缕) of plastic with a layer
39、made out of “smart” material that could self-assemble in water. They advanced this concept by creating materials that can change into several different complicated shapes, though this kind of material remains the bottleneck of 4D technology.To many people that are just starting to get used to the id
40、ea of 3D printers, the name 4D is causing confusion because they cannot understand where this fourth “dimension” coming from. 4D technology shares many of the same principles of 3D printing and is essentially still about creating a new, 3D structure out of certain component; however, Tibbits states
41、the fourth dimension at work here comes from concept of the fourth dimension of time. The difference between these 3D and 4D creations is that these new forms have the ability to transform and adapt over time.4D printing works through self-assembly a system where “disordered elements form an “ordere
42、d” structure via an interaction. With these 4D printed materials, these disordered materials are strands or sheets of specially designed materials. Environmental changes then stimulate (刺激)a response from them so that they form a preprogrammed shape.The idea of having adaptable technology that only
43、relies on energy and non-human interactions raises some interesting questions about where 4D printing can be used and the practical applications in dangerous environments. This could mean improved infrastructures in extreme conditions, leading to a reduced need for workers to put themselves at risk,
44、 but the potential goes even further than that. The technology promises exciting new possibilities for a variety of applications. A solar panel or similar product could be produced in a flat shape onto which functional devices can be easily installed. It could then be changed to a compact shape for
45、packing and shipping. After arriving at its destination, the product could be stimulated to form a different shape that serves its function. Also it could be used to build furniture, bikes, cars and even buildings. As with many of the ideas being put forward, it is easy to go a step too far into the
46、 extreme, but this just shows the potential of 4D in comparison to 3D.The next stage for the research is to move from printing single strands to sheets and eventually whole structures. And water need not be the process s only energy source.62. Which of the following displays the fourth dimension of
47、4D printing?A. 4D printing creates a new, 3D structure out of certain component.B. 4D technology reduces need for workers to put themselves at risk.C. 4D technology can be used in many more fields than 3D printing.D. 4D printed materials reshape themselves with conditions changing.63. The major prob
48、lem concerning the development of 4D printing lies in_.A. producing essential 4D printersB. creating proper smart materialsC. providing a suitable environmentD. promoting practical applications64. What does the passage lead you to believe?A. 4D printing will take the place of 3D printing in the near
49、 future.B. Most aspects of our daily life can be affected by 4D printing.C. 4D printing will benefit humans by saving labor somehow.D. Smart materials can be transformed into other types of material.65. It can be inferred from the passage that_.A. electricity is not used in 4D technologyB. 4D printi

53、ife, its no wonder youre feeling a little lost. But before prescribing titles to help you get your groove back, Id recommend taking a journey into Rebecca Solnits non-fiction book, A Field Guide to Getting Lost, which is packed with the wisdom of everyone from Pat Barker to Thoreau and Keats.The wor
54、d lost is rooted in the Old Norse “los”,meaning the disbanding of an army. “This origin suggests soldiers falling out of formation to go home, ceasing fighting with the wide world. I worry now that many people never disband their armies, never go beyond what they know,” Solnit writes. So instead of
55、fearing that lost feeling, try seeing its potential for discovery. Explorers, remember, are always lost simply because theyre forever someplace new.“Leave the door open for the unknown, the door into the dark,” Solnit advises. “Thats where the most important things come from, where you yourself came
56、 from, and where you will go.” For something that asks a little less of the reader while still giving plenty in return, try a dose (剂)of Anne Tyler, the beloved creator of numerous heroes whose serious conditions will move anyone who finds themselves in a midlife difficult situation. One such charac

67、意:每个空格只填1个单词。请将答案写在答题卡上相应题号的横线上。Novel is typically written in a narrative (叙事) style and presented as a book. Novels tell stories, in which the characters and events are usually imaginary. The novel has been a part of human culture for over a thousand years, although its origins are somewhat debated
68、. Regardless of how it began, the novel has remained one of the most popular and treasured examples of human culture and writing. It remains an essential part of the literary cultures of nearly all societies around the world.Novella is classified as “Too short to be a novel,too long to be a short st

Literary prizes and publishing houses often have their own arbitrary limits, which vary according to their particular intentions.A short story is different from novels or novellas in that the plot is usually tied to one single chai
70、n of events. Because the reader must identify with a character quickly to become engaged, the tale is often told from the chief characters point of view.A drama refers to a play for the theatre,television or radio. It generally consists of chiefly dialogue between characters. It also uses dance to c
71、onvey their message. Dramas usually aim at dramatic performance rather than at reading. In theater, a drama is presented by actors to an audience.Good literary works depend on literary techniques. A literary technique can be used by authors in order to improve the written framework of a piece of lit
72、erature, and produce specific effects.Literary techniques include a wide range of approaches to crafting a work. The ability to let readers know what might happen in the future in an indirect way is possible through the technique foreshadowing. The practice of representing objects and qualities as h
