17、st in Tianjin Municipality, is eager to introduce the traditional musical instrument used in Chinese opera to more people.Liu became addicted to Chinese opera in his childhood when his grandfather frequently took him to watch performances. At the age of 13, he joined Hebei bangzi training team. Hebe
18、i bangzi is one of the oldest types of Chinese opera in northern China, which became popular in the Qing Dynasty. It is a traditional Chinese opera combining music, vocals, dance and acrobatics(杂技).“It took me hours to practice the basic skills of gongs,” he said. “This round piece of metal can help
19、 performers on the stage to express joy and sorrow when hit by a stick with different rhythms, so I must bear in mind all kinds of rhythms(节奏) for various situations. For example, striking gongs with a quick tempo(速度) can create a tense atmosphere for action scenes.”In the 1960s and 1970s, the reorg
20、anization of opera troupes in Tianjin forced many members to switch their jobs to those in factories. Thanks to Lius brilliant skills, he was fortunate enough to go to one of the three biggest Beijing Opera troupes in Tianjin to continue his gong life.Ten years ago, Liu retired, but he still goes to
21、 an opera tea house almost every afternoon to strike the gong for opera performances. In 2006, Hebei bangzi was listed into Chinas national intangible cultural heritage. However, he worries about maintaining the art as fewer and fewer youngsters are learning percussion(敲打乐器), especially gongs. “Peop
22、le who strike the gong stay behind the scenes. It is hard for them to gain fame and fortune,” he said. Although many amateurs(业余爱好者) have learned from Liu over the years, some gave up easily. “Its a bit dull and boring to continuously strike a gong for 40 minutes at the practice stage. It requires p
23、atience. Few can bear the hardship,” he said. Various kinds of Chinese gongs are neatly placed at Lius home. He is waiting for more people to take over his career and spread the traditional Chinese art.24. What can we know about Liu Zibin from the 2nd paragraph?A. His grandfather founded Hebei Opera
24、 Troupe.B. He showed interest in Chinese opera as a child.C. He was the only one who could strike gongs in the troupe.D. His grandfather taught him to sing Hebei bangzi.25. Why did some members of the opera troupes turn to factories in the 1960s and 1970s?A. Because of the reform of the opera troupe
25、s.B. Because no one showed interest in opera then.C. Because they could earn more money in factories.D. Because the opera troupe was badly lacking in funds.26. How old was Liu Zibin when he retired?A. 55 years old. B. 60 years old. C. 65 years old. D. 70 years old.27. What can we conclude from the t
26、ext?A. People striking the gong will never become famous.B. Grasping the skill of striking the gong is anything but challenging.C. Liu expects the traditional Chinese art will draw more peoples attention. D. Hebei bangzi is now the worlds intangible cultural heritage.CThere are many differences in t
27、he way different cultures raise kids. International visitors cant help but notice the fact that children are special in China. However, the way some Chinese people treat these very special kids may shock some foreign visitors.When I told a Chinese mother her child was beautiful, I was nonplussed whe
28、n she replied, “ No, shes not; shes ugly.” Since that time I have heard many similar comments, including, “No, hes not bright; hes stupid.” This is a huge cultural difference that needs to be understood when you talk about kids with your international visitors.Someone explained it to me, “ We Chines
29、e dont want to appear too proud.” Im sure there are other people in the world who feel the same way, but most people in my country would consider you a terrible parent if you said your kid was stupid or ugly. They would think you were destroying the childs self-confidence. When we Americans say some
30、thing good about our child we dont think we are being proud because we are saying it about the child, not about ourselves. In this way, we separate the child from the parents as two different persons.You may think I sound too proud when I freely say to another westerner: “ My daughter is smart and p
31、retty.” Of course, I still have to teach her not to be proud, but I can be proud of her. Its just the way she was made, and Im thankful for that. So, in the US when we say something nice about our own kids, it is not considered being too proud but rather, being thankful and being a good parent.28. W
32、hat does the underlined word “nonplussed” in Paragraph 2 probably mean?A. Hopeful B. Worried C. Regretful D. Surprised29. When US parents praise their child in front of others, they _A. often feel proud of themselves B. try to build the kids confidenceC. just say something nice about the kid D. have
33、 similar feelings as Chinese parents30. What can we infer about the author?A. He is from the US. B. He is visiting America C. He is a Chinese parent. D. He is an expert in education.31. What is mainly discussed in the text?A. How different cultures in the world raise kids. B. How Chinese and US pare
34、nts talk about kids.C. How US parents feel about themselves.D. How different countries treat kids.DThe past 70 years have been good for corn production in the Midwestern United States, with yields increasing fivefold since the 1940s. Much of this improvement has been credited to advances in farming
35、technology but researchers at Harvard University are asking if changes in climate and local temperature may be playing a bigger role than previously thought.In a newspaper, researchers find that a prolonged(延长的) growing season due to increased temperatures, combined with the natural cooling effects
36、of large fields of plants, have had a major contribution to improved corn production in the U.S. “Our research shows that improvements in crop yields depend, in part, on improvements in climate,” said Peter Huybers, professor of Earth and Planetary Sciences. “In this case, changing temperatures have
37、 had a beneficial impact on agricultural production, but there is no guarantee that benefit will last as the climate continues to change. Understanding the detailed relationships between climate and crop yields is important as we move towards feeding a growing population on a changing planet. ” The
38、researchers modeled the relationship between temperature and crop yields from 1981 to 2017 across the so-called Corn Belt. They found that as temperatures increased due to global climate change, planting days got earlier and earlier, shifting by about three days per decade. Early planting means the
39、corn has more time to mature before the end of the growing season.There is also a second, more surprising trend that has benefited corn yields. Whereas the vast majority of temperatures have warmed over the last century, the hottest days during the Midwestern growing season have actually cooled.The
40、researchers estimate that more than one quarter of the increase in crop yields since 1981 can be attributed to the twin effects of a longer growing season and less exposure to high temperatures, suggesting that the crop yield is more vulnerable to climate change than previously thought.The researche
41、rs also show that the planting and harvest dates farmers currently use is significantly better adapted to the present climate than it would be to climates in earlier decades.32. What is previously thought to be the reason for the increase of corn production?A. Local temperature change. B. Advanced f
42、arming technology. C. Climate change. D. Production efficiency.33. Why is it important to understand the relationships between climate and crop yield? A. The climate has a beneficial impact on agriculture. B. We can change the climate to improve crop yield. C. We depend on the climate to get food. D
43、. Crop yield relies less on the climate.34. How many factors that benefit corn yields are mentioned in the text?A. 4. B. 3. C. 2. D. 1.35. What is the main purpose of the text?A. To explain a mystery. B. To question a common sense.C. To show a new trend. D. To introduce a research result. 第二节 (共 5 小
44、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。Lets take a minute to think about the water we use. The human body is 60% water and we need to drink lots of water to be healthy. When we are thirsty we just go to the kitchen and fill a glass with clean water. 36 For example, farmers, who p
45、roduce the food we eat, use water to make the plants grow. When we turn on a light or switch on a TV or a computer we use energy and we need water to produce this energy.The truth is that we are lucky enough to have clean water whenever we want, but this is not the case for many people around the wo
46、rld. 37 Thats around one in 10 people in the world. If we drink dirty water, we can catch diseases from the bacteria and become ill. Every year over 500,000 children die from diarrhoea (腹泻) from dirty water. Thats around 1,400 children every day! Also, in some countries children walk many kilometres
47、 every day to get water. 38 Therefore, they dont have time to learn how to read or write and dont get an education. 39 On this day every year, countries around the world hold events to educate people about the problems of dirty water and that clean water is something that everyone should have around
48、 the world. At one school in the UK, children between the ages of 10 and 15 walk 6km with six litres of water. 40 People give them money to do this and all the money helps get clean water to as many people as possible around the world.A. We use water indirectly too.B. Every system in our body depend
49、s on water to function.C. It is to inspire people to learn more about water-related problems.D. If children walk many hours a day to get water, they cant go to school.E. Did you know that around 750 million people do not have clean water to drink?F. In 1993 the United Nations decided that March 22nd
50、 is the World Day for Water.G. In this way, they know how it feels to walk a long distance carrying heavy bottles.第三部分 英语知识运用 (共20小题,每小题1.5分, 满分30分) 第一节完形填空 阅读下面短文,从短文后各题所给四个选项(A、B、C和D)中,选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。When I was a young boy growing up in North Dakota, my grandparents were farmers.

Today well talk about dreams. Let me start by asking the first question. Does everyone dream? It appears that ever
84、yone does. Mostly when people say that they never dream, what they really mean is that they dont remember their dreams or they dont think their dreams are important. The reason behind is that they might have been made fun of when they first shared their dreams with others or it was so frightening th
85、at they just turned off dreaming completely. The other day, someone named Davis came to me and said that he used to be a great dreamer, but suddenly he stopped having dreams. I asked him what happened. It turned out that his brother died by heart attack, which was such a terrible thing happening to
86、a young person. Generally, when there was some frightening event and dream about it was too terrible, people prefer not to dream about it. But actually the worst thing you can do is stop dreaming. Because it means that the bad experience would be too painful to even appear in dreams. As long as you
87、dream about it and even the dream is frightening, your mind is working on it. My personal opinion about what dreams do is that they help us deal with our problems. We see certain patterns take place in dreams. When a person is hurt deep inside, when a person is seriously ill or when a person has been really sad, if people turn off their dreams totally, it means they dont think about solving the problems actively.
