Venice, Italy Venice is already known to be sinking, and the masses of tourists that visit the city every year certainly aren’t helping. Locals have complained that tourism, including cruise ships, is responsible for increased pollution in the city. Venice has implemented strict rules regarding tourism: littering, engaging in horseplay, not wearing a shirt in public, leaving love locks, and writing on or damaging trees or buildings are all fineable offenses in the city. Barcelona, Spain Locals in Barcelona aren’t shy about their dislike for tourists. Popular attractions have even changed their rules as a result of tourist activity. La Boqueria, a large public market, banned tourist groups of more than 15 people in 2015.Before the ban, large groups of vacationers often blocked foot traffic while taking photographs, according to The Telegraph. Santorini, Greece Santorini is a beautiful island off the coast of Greece. It’s often packed with tourists during the summer. In fact, due to the seasonal influx (涌入) of tourists, the island imposed a rule limiting visitors from cruise ships to 8,000 per day. 790,000 people from 636 cruise ships visited Santorin in 2015, according to Conde Nast Traveler, while the entire island only has a population of just over 15,000. Amsterdam, the Netherlands Amsterdam has long been a popular vacation destination for party-loving travelers. In response to a rise in tourism, the city has put restrictions on Airbnb so that a rental listing cannot have more than four people at a time, and that tourists cannot keep the rental apartments for more than 60 days a year. 【1】According to this passage, for which behaviour will the tourists be fined? A.Blocking foot traffic in Barcelona B.Wearing a shirt in public in Santorini C.Buying a love lock in Amsterdam D.Damaging a tree in Venice 【2】If you are going to rent an apartment in Amsterdam as a tourist, how long can you keep it within a year at most?

The famous Spanish painter Pablo Picasso once said, “Every child is an artist. The problem he has is how to remain an artist once he grows up.” This is both encouraging and discouraging. The fact that we were all born to be artists is certainly exciting, and yet the reality has proven that remaining one is a task that many of us have failed. Fortunately, some people have seen the problem and want to solve it. Western educators have suggested that we introduce the concept of “STEAM” instead of “STEM” - traditional “core majors” including science, technology, engineering, and math -since the “A”, which stands for “arts”, is just as important. And on April 11, China’s Ministry of Education issued a guideline. Colleges and universities are required to provide more art-related courses and students need to earn a certain number of art credits in order to graduate. These efforts came after many scientific studies had found that art education helps students develop self-confidence and teamwork skills, as well as habits of mind such as problem solving and critical thinking, according to The Washington Post. It’s true that none of these skills target specific jobs. But as former US ballet dancer Damian Woetzel told The Atlantic, the purpose of art is “to give kids the tools to become adults who are creative, adaptable, and expressive - capable of having their eyes and ears and senses alive”.And we can now see how we lost track of our born “artist self” on our way to growing up: We failed to keep our capabilities to see, hear and feel, and became blind, deaf and insensitive adults. Hopefully, art education can help turn things around. 【1】What is the function of the first paragraph? A.To introduce a famous artist. B.To summarize the whole passage. C.To lead in the topic. D.To encourage us to be artists. 【2】Why should the concept of “STEAM” be introduced according to western educators? A.Art is as important as traditional “core majors”. B.All of us should learn art in college. C.Traditional “core majors” are out of date. D.Western education is more helpful. 【3】What can we predict from the guideline issued by China’s Ministry of education? A.More art-related courses will appear in all schools. B.College students will have to gain enough art credits to graduate. C.More students will major in art at colleges and universities. D.Art will become much more important than science. 【4】What is the best title of the passage? A.Every child is an artist B.Bringing art to life C.Learning from the artists D.Life is art |

Most new runners assume that the best way to improve is simply to run greater and greater distances. While it’s true that going farther and faster will improve your running skills, most coaches and trainers will advise some level of strength training as well. Focusing on your core is a common suggestion. A recent study seems to back this up. In the Journal of Biomechanics, researchers investigated a symptom that has long confused runners from beginners to experienced ones. A good number of runners, 14 percent to be exact, experience gradual lower back pain. The results of the new study seem to suggest that weak deep core muscles might be to blame. When these muscles aren’t strong enough, the study found, muscles on other areas of the body kick in to keep the runner up-right, eventually leading to back pain. To understand the role that these muscles play, the researchers had eight volunteers with minimal running experience run along an indoor track. High-speed cameras and 3D motion detectors analyzed which muscles moved, and how much. Once they created a working computer model for each runner, the scientists imitated what would happen if certain deep muscles were weaker, or shut off completely. As it turns out, when a person can’t use their deep core muscles very well, their bodies still want (and need) to maintain a good running form, and uses surface muscles to do so. What’s wrong with that? A muscle is a muscle, right? Not exactly. While the surface muscles are often targeted in workouts - they give you a six-pack (六块腹肌), after all - they are pretty useless when it comes to supporting your spine (脊柱). The deeper core muscles, which essentially lie beneath and can’t be seen from the outside, do all the heavy spinal lifting. It’s important to note that even when you’ve made these muscles super strong, you won’t likely notice visible results. But they will probably help you run better and definitely help prevent potential back pain. Perhaps throwing a nice long plank (平板支撑) may work. 【1】Why do most new runners want to run farther and faster? A.Because they think it can improve running skills. B.Because some coaches and trainers advise them to do so. C.Because a recent study proves it to be helpful. D.Because it’s a kind of useful strength training. 【2】What does the new study show us when people do the running? A.14 percent of the runners have weak muscles. B.The muscles on other areas lead to back pain. C.Strong deep core muscles can prevent back pain. D.The beginning runners usually have weak core muscles. 【3】What happens when people do the running? A.A working computer model can be created. B.Certain deep muscles become weaker. C.They use both deep and surface muscles. D.Deep core muscles probably function first. 【4】What can we infer from the text? A.Doing a long plank can benefit the runners. B.The spine is supported by the deep muscles. C.Training the six-pack is useless. D.Super strong muscles can’t be seen. |

For two centuries, the famous University of Cambridge debating society has hosted many outstanding figures, from world leaders to scientists to comedians. On Nov 21, 2019, the Cambridge Union hosted its first-ever non-human guest. Designed by IBM, Project Debater is a machine that uses Artificial Intelligence (AI) to form a spoken argument. It can even listen to and answer opposing statements, much like a real person. Speaking with a voice similar to Siri, Project Debater uses AI to search journals, newspapers and other information sources. It then filters out useless information, picks the strongest arguments, and arranges them into a persuasive argument. In the Cambridge test debate, it argued the topic: AI will do more harm than good in the long term. According to IBM, it is the first machine that can debate complicated topics with humans. Before the debate, more than 1,100 arguments for the positives and negatives of AI were submitted to the IBM website. The machine then analyzed these sources and formed the basis of its arguments in minutes. Project Debater then showed off its AI by arguing for both sides of the debate. Over a four-minute speech, it argued first that, “AI can only make decisions that it has been programmed to solve, while humans can be programmed for all situations.” In support of AI, it then argued that AI would create new jobs and “bring a lot more efficiency” to the workplace. According to New Scientist, on both occasions, Project Debater repeated points and didn’t always sufficiently support them. Speaking to Cambridge Independent, Noam Slonim, the project’s lead engineer, said, “The AI is not perfect, but it’s going in the right direction.” 【1】What can we learn about the University of Cambridge debating society? A.It has hosted many debating parties for centuries. B.It designed Project Debater with IBM. C.It has invited many famous hosts to join it. D.It has never hosted a non-human guest before. 【2】What do we know about Project Debater? A.In the Cambridge test debate, it argued for both sides. B.AI helps it to find the useful information sources. C.Before the debate the arguments were submitted to it. D.It would create many new jobs in the future. 【3】What’s the probable purpose of debate? A.To find out how AI works. B.To create a debating machine. C.To do an experiment about AI. D.To prove AI is better than humans. 【4】How does Noam Slonim feel about AI? A.Worried. B.Hopeful. C.Doubtful. D.Nervous. |

They’d travelled to the Far East hoping to control the spice trade. But soon 【2】 tasting the brew for the first time, the 【3】 (explore)quickly realized its potential and decided to focus on exporting tea instead. The Portuguese called the drink cha, just like the people of southern China did. From the port of Canton, the Portuguese shipped the 【4】 (process) leaves down through Indonesia, under the southern tip of Africa, and back up to 【5】 (west) Europe. But long before the root word “cha” made 【6】 (it) way across the oceans to Portugal, another trade route called the “Tea-Horse” road 【7】 (spread) tea westward. 【8】 bricks of tea packed up high on the carriers’ backs, the leaf travelled to India via Persia, 【9】 the Chinese “cha” turned into the Persian “chay”. Depending on the region of India, most Indian dialects use some variation of the root word “cha” 【10】 (describe) tea. |

But actually, have to turn our phones off on a plane is a service issue, not a safe one. When we speak on our phones in air, the aircraft’s radios can be disturb. Pilots can hear this interference in their headphone. Though speaking on a phone during a flight isn’t dangerous, but it isn’t a good idea. Now things are beginning to change. The breakthrough could be “pico cells”, that are small cell towers on the plane. One day, perhaps, we will be chatting in the air as many as we chat on the ground. |
