33、ern Greece, kicking off the countdown to Rio 2016.The Games were first held there in 776 BC and remained there for 12 centuries.Acting the role of the high priestess (女祭司), Greek actress Katerina Lechou lit the torch using a concave (凹形) mirror to focus the suns rays, before placing it into a cerami
34、c bowl. An olive branch was cut and a white dove released into the blue spring sky, both symbolizing peace.The flaming torch, which has its own Twitter account, was handed to its first torchbearer, gold medal-winning Greek gymnast Eleftherios Petrounias, before beginning its six-day relay across the
35、 country. Another of the runners will be a Syrian refugee (难民), who will carry the torch through the Eleonas refugee camp in central Athenspart of a conscious effort by the International Olympic Committee (IOC) to highlight the hardships of refugees around the world.For the first time in history, a
36、team of 12 refugee athletes from multiple countries will be competing in this years Games. They will march behind the Olympic flag at the opening ceremony in Rio.After its sprint through Greece, the torch will travel to Brazil on April 27 to begin a 95-day tour visiting 83 cities, 26 state capitals
37、and 500 townsreaching an estimated 90% of the population.It is the first time the Games have been held in South America, but the torch-lighting ceremony comes during uncertain times for Brazil. President Dilma Roussef faces the possibility of being impeached as early as May after she broke budgetary
38、 laws. Thomas Bach, President of the International Olympic Committee, said in his speech at the torch-lighting ceremony that this years Games “will be a message of hope in troubled times”.“In these difficult days that Brazil is facing, the flame is a timeless reminder that we all are part of the sam
39、e humanity,” he said. “May todays lighting of the Olympic flame be another reminder to everyone to uphold the spirit of the Olympic Games and to build a better world through sport.”The torchs Brazilian tour will involve an estimated 12,000 torchbearers before arriving at Rios famous Maracana Stadium
40、 for the Games Opening Ceremony on August 5. 58. Which of the following statements is NOT true according to the passage? A. A concave mirror can make fire by focusing the suns rays. B. The Olympic torch will have a relay of six days in Brazil. C. The Olympic Games will bring hope to todays Brazil. D
41、. Brazil is the first South American country to hold the Games.59. Why did the IOC choose a Syrian refugee to carry the torch? A. The Syrian refugee shows great concern for the 2016 Rio Olympics. B. Carrying the torch will bring the refugee great fame in the world. C. The IOC aims to make people awa
42、re of the world refugee problem. D. The Syrian refugee wants to compete with other top competitors. 60. What does the underlined “impeached” mean? A. Cheated. B. Reported. C. Injured. D. Accused.CWhy not write in a foreign language? If people feel free to choose their profession, their religion, and
43、 even their sex, why not just decide which language you want to write in? Ever since Jhumpa publishedIn Other Words in Italian, people have been asking me, “Why dont you write in Italian, Tim? After all, youve been in the country 35 years. What keeps you tied to English?” Is it just a question of ec
44、onomic convenience? Certainly economics can be important. It was the factor that pushed Conrad to abandon his Polish mother tongue. If it is not possible to publish at home, or to publish there as one would wish to publish, then one is likely to go elsewhere. And if to publish elsewhere one has to c
45、hange language, then some authors are willing to take that step.Something of the same logic has driven many writers from Africa, Asia to write in French and English in recent years. There is also the fact that people in Europe and the West are interested in the countries they grew up in. Just as in
46、the nineteenth century, novelists like Thomas Hardy could “sell” their familiarity with peasant life to a middle-class metropolitan public, so these writers have interested us with stories that might seem common in their home countries.There is also a real internationalism in the decision to change
47、language. If you have “a message” and if English is the language that offers maximum spread, then it would seem appropriate to use it. All these make sense. Critics tend to pay attention only to those who have made a success of writing in a new language. In April 2014, aNew York Timesarticle essenti
48、allylisted young literary stars who had switched to writing in the main Western languages. At this point, the native English speaker almost begins to feel at a disadvantage for having been born into the dominant culture. Should we perhaps head for Paris, like Beckett or Jonathan Littell, just to be
49、between two worlds? Or look for something more exotic (异国的) and have ourselves translated back into English afterward? However, one fact is that changing languages doesnt always work. I did write a novel in Italian. But after rereading it, I decided against it. My work lost power with the switch of
50、language. My real subject matter still had to do with England and it was to my home culture that my books were addressed. The second language never seems to mean quite as much as the first. In any event, after my early experiment, I never went back to write in Italian. Changing language is not the o
51、nly way to bring energy to your writing. 61. The author writes the first paragraph to _. A. introduce the topic of this passage B. provide background information C. stress the importance of English D. explain why he writes in English62. Why are some writers willing to write in a foreign language? A.
52、 They have published a lot of works at home. B. Their works are uncommon in their own countries. C. A new language may offer a wider readership. D. They want to be accepted by middle class.63. What can we infer from the passage? A. Native English writers are at a disadvantage for writing in English.
53、 B. Writers cant be entirely separated from their own culture and language. C. Writers should write in a foreign language to draw critics attention. D. Any writer can succeed with the switch of a new language. 64. Which of the following can be the best title for the passage? A. Write in a foreign la
54、nguage B. Write in mother tongue C. Publish at home D. Change language to bring energyDTang Xianzu and William Shakespeare were contemporaries (同代人) , who coincidentally died in the same year.Japanese scholar Aoki Masarut was the first to draw a link between the two in his 1943 book A History of Chi
55、nese Literary Thought. Yet, dying in the same year, 1616, is not reason enough to put them together.Scholars who specialize either in Tang or Shakespeare are looking for similarities between the two as the anniversaries (周年) of their deaths are marked in the United Kingdom, China and around the glob
56、e.“Tang Xianzu was not Chinas Shakespeare,” said Chen Guohua, a professor at Beijing Foreign Studies University, striking a rare discordant(不和谐的) note. “He was just Chinas Tang Xianzu. Nobody in the English-speaking world can hold a candle to Shakespeare, and Tang was just one of the greats of Chine
57、se drama. Guan Hanqing and Wang Shifu were equally skillful.”Both Tangs and Shakespeares plays were meant for the stage, but they served different audiences. Shakespeare was a professional dramatist while Tang was a civil servant who happened to pen a few plays and thousands of poems. Tangs lines we
58、re sung mostly at family theaters at a time when noblemen and retired officials were patrons (赞助人) of the arts who owned and ran their own entertainment troupes. Shakespeare, the English Bard (吟游诗人) had to sell tickets to whoever would buy them.That probably affected their writing styles. While Tang
59、s language is extremely difficult and the rhymes (韵律) come on like hurricanes, it is a wonder that Shakespeares vast vocabulary could be understood by those in the Globe Theatre back then. And given that the Bards subject matter runs such a wide range, most people, whatever their tastes, could take
60、away something.Though no one can touch the Bard in range and richness, there is one area where Tang shines, and that is in the use of dreams, not only as a plot device but also a philosophical tool. His quartet of plays (四梦) all built on dreams, often indicating that life is empty and all the demand
61、 for power eventually amounts to nothing.In The Peony Pavilion (牡丹亭), his most famous play, Tang raised the dream to a higher level that Sigmund Freud would have recognized. It is the subconscious (潜意识) world of the major characters, especially Du Liniang, the noble young lady who whiles away her yo
62、uth in a gilded cage. It is not a traditional love story because she had not seen or known the young man.Of all Shakespeares works, the dream features in A Midsummer Nights Dream. The forest near Athens is similar to the family garden in The Peony Pavilion, a neighboring quarter that sets free the d
63、esires of the young. For the ending, Pavilion brings sadness that is absent from Shakespeares Dream. But lyricism and earthy humor are present in both plays. And both tales can be sung or danced because they lend themselves to other forms of performing arts. Pavilion, intended as an opera, has also
64、been changed into plays but has been less successful.They both represent peaks in culture, but we should stop from measuring which peak is higher and focus on whats unique about each of them instead. And the comparison of Tang and Shakespeare can serve as a point of departure for meaningful conversa
65、tions about art, literature and cultural inspirations, rather than being an end in itself.65. What can we learn from the first three paragraphs? A. Tang and Shakespeare died for the same reason. B. Tang and Shakespeare were born in the same year. C. The four hundredth anniversary of their deaths is
66、in 2016. D. Scholars first put Tang and Shakespeare together in 1616.66. What Chen Guohua said suggests that _. A. Tang was no match for Shakespeare in plays B. Tang was more famous than Shakespeare in China C. Guan Hanqing and Wang Shifu were greater than Tang D. Shakespeare was only famous in the
67、English-speaking countries67. Tang and Shakespeare served different audiences because _. A. their plays were meant for the stage B. they were in different countries C. the prices of the tickets were different D. they had different cultural backgrounds and status68. According to the passage, which of
68、 the following is Tangs writing style? A. His language is easy to understand. B. His plays are full of philosophy. C. His plays have a wide range of themes. D. The vocabulary in his plays is vast.69. What can we learn about The Peony Pavilion and A Midsummer Nights Dream? A. They were both intended
69、as operas. B. They got the same success as plays. C. The forest and the family garden played the same role. D. Sadness was present in A Midsummer Nights Dream. 70. By writing the passage, the writer mainly _. A. compares Tangs life with Shakespeares B. introduces the works of Tang and Shakespeare C.
70、 calls on people to read the works of Tang and Shakespeare D. draws readers attention to the features of Tang and Shakespeare 第四部分: 任务型阅读（共10小题；每小题1分，共10分）请阅读下面短文,并根据所读内容在文章后表格中的空格里填入一个最恰当的单词。注意：请将答案写在答题卡上相应题号的横线上。每个空格只填1个单词。The public were shocked in March when the news that improperly stored vacci
