The Nobel Prize for Literature from
12、the Swedish Academy on October 13 is only the most recent achievement of a man who has long been among the cultural masters of the modern age. He has created new poetic expressions within the great American song tradition, according to the academy. Although Dylan, 75, is not really seen as a literar
13、y(文学的) writer, he has given the world over 50 years of creative output. In his 1985 album Biograph, Dylan wrote about the attraction of folk music to him. Rock songs werent serious enough or didnt reflect life in a realistic way, he explained. Folk music, compared with rock music, was a more serious
14、 type of thing. The songs are filled with more sadness, more joy, more faith in the supernatural, much deeper feelings. Dylans music and lyrics(歌词) did speak to a generation of people during the 1960s.His lyrics often spoke about great political causes, such as the civil rights movement or the campa
15、ign against the war in Vietnam. The 1960s were a time of change, a time when the young were demanding that their voices be heard. Some people were puzzled that a literary prize had been handed to a singer. But poetry and song have long been found together. Greek poet Homer would have sung The Iliad.
16、 In the Middle Ages, wandering minstrels(吟游诗人) performed their poems to music just like Dylan does. Far from just being a fashionable move, giving the prize to Dylan can be seen as bringing back an old literary tradition. The millions whose lives Dylans songs have made better - among them poets and
17、novelists and fellow musicians - will surely welcome the award. 21. Why could Bob Dylan receive the Nobel Prize for Literature? A. He performed his poems to music. B. He brought back traditional music to life. C. He wrote a large number of poems. D. He developed a poetic way of music expression.22.
18、Which of the following would Bob probably agree with? A. Rock music contains more faith in the supernatural than folk music. B. Folk music and Rock music are both very serious. C. Folk music conveys emotions more strongly than rock music. D. Rock music describes life in a more realistic way than fol
19、k music. 23. Greek poet Homer is mentioned in the passage to show A. the connection between songs and poems B. the great influence of Homers poems C. the style of poetry in the Middle Ages D. the difference between a poet and a singer B If you have spent any time living in or visiting a big city in
20、China, you have most likely used the service that Didi provides. The convenient ride-sharing company, now known as Didi Chuxing, was praised last month by Fortune magazine. According to the magazine, it is changing the world with its environmentally friendly solution to getting around in major citie
21、s. As the magazine reported: Didi concluded that last year its car-pooling services helped reduce total car trips in the country by 1 million a day, which saved 500 million liters of gas, cutting 13.5 million tons of carbon emissions(排放) per day. The transport service was the only Chinese company to
22、 make the important magazines list, and itsinfluence can be felt in many parts of Chinese society. Didi is just one example of what is being called the sharing economy. The sharing economy is one in which regular people exchange goods and services, usually using an online marketplace. Other similar
23、companies include companies that allow people to rent out their homes to strangers like Airbnb and Couchsurfing, and similar ride sharing services like Uber and Lyft. All of these services are possible partly because many people are realizing that they have underused assets in their lives. Millions
24、of people around the world have started renting them out online to earn extra money. They rent their apartments while they are away for the weekend, lend people their cars for money and even sell their spare time. The sharing economy is the latest example of the Internets value to customers. This mo
25、del is now big enough for regulators and companies to have woken up to it. That is a sign of its great potential. It is time to start caring about sharing. 24. What does the first paragraph imply?

C It happens all the time: during an airport delay, a Korean perhaps starts talking to a man who might be Colombian, and soon they are chatting away in what seems to be Engl
28、ish. But the native English speaker sitting beside them cannot understand a word. They dont know they are speaking Globish, the latest addition to the 6,800 languages that are said to be spoken across the world. Not that its inventor, Jean-Paul Nerriere, considers it a proper language. It is not a l
29、anguage, it is a tool, he says. “A language is the vehicle of a culture. Globish doesnt want to be that at all. It is a means of communication. The seeds for Globish came about in the 1980s when Nerriere was working for IBM in Paris with colleagues of about 40 nationalities. At a meeting where they
30、were to be addressed by two Americans whose flight had been delayed, they started chatting. Then the Americans arrived and beyond their opening phrases, Call me Jim, Call me Bill, no one understood a word. And Jim and Bill, needless to say, did not understand the strange English spoken by others. Th
31、ey all spoke low-quality English. Except Jim and Bill, everyone was speaking Globish though they didnt know it. The main principles of Globish are a vocabulary of only 1,500 words in English, gestures and repetition(重复). One of the interesting things in Globish is that with 1,500 words you can expre
32、ss everything. The target is to reach the point where you will be understood everywhere. The list goes from able to zero. Niece and nephew, for example, are not included, but you can replace them with the children of my brother, Nerriere says. But a small problem is still waiting for him. The fluent
33、 Globish speaker will not be understood by native English speakers. To this question, Nerriere responded confidently, This is the way to get Americans to learn another language. 27.
