The 3 Best Marvel Films-Ranked! It seems that ranking films well is always a tough task. In the hearts of millions of fans, everyone has is own choice. Superhero films are even more so. Recently, The Guardian (卫报) has selected three of the most popular Marvel films. No. 3 Blade Ⅱ (2002) This film continues the story of an earlier 1998’s Blade and is directed by Guillermo. The story once again concerns the mysterious daywalker, played by Wesley Snipes. It is an action film full of high technology and the fighting scenes Guillermo expresses are horribly exciting. Not a typical superhero film, in many ways, but a great one: No.2 Black Panther (2018) This superb film is an entertaining adventure, with a richer component of fantasy than the other Marvel films. The character of black panther is established as one of Marvel’s greatest heroes. It is a big hit across the board. It also employs Rachel Morrison who is MCU’s first woman cinematographer, a photographer who operates a movie camera. Marvel Studios’ president, Kevin Feige, has promised to get more women writers and directors on board. So far, the only Marvel female writer is Nicole Perlman for Guardians of the Galaxy. No. 1 Thor: Ragnarok (2017) It is smart, visually exciting and perhaps above all, funny. And it’s funny in a way that only Marvel films can be. It suggests that to some degree comedy can be an important part of the drama. Taika Waititi was an inspired choice as director. Hemsworth plays the role of Thor and Cate Blanchett plays Hela, the goddess of death who also happens to be Thor’s half-sister. 【1】According to The Guardian, which film ranks first? A.Blade Ⅱ. B.Black Panther. C.Guardians of the galaxy. D.Thor: Ragnarok. 【2】Which of the following is true according to the passage? A.Ranking superhero films is easy. B.Blade Ⅱ is a typical superhero film.

Have you ever been asked by your Chinese friend, “What is your zodiac sign?” If you say “I’m a Pig.” they immediately know you are either 24, 36, 48 or 60 years old. Askiing a zodiac sign is a polite way of asking your age. By showing your zodiac sign, you are also being evaluated. Maybe you don’t believe in the Chinese zodiac. However, as a quarter of the world population is fluenced by it, you’d be wise to do something about that. Zodiac sign is a 12-year cycle marked with animals, starting with a Rat and ending with a Pig. For example, if you were born in 2000, you are a Dragon. If you were born in 2001, you are a Snake. If you were born in 2002, you are a Horse. Over thousands of years, zodiac sign has affected the Chinese’s major decisions, some of which are quite amazing. In romantic relations, a Pig girl may believe in a perfect romance with Tigers, Goats and Rabbits. while Snakes supposed to be their natural enemies. Chinese. parents also try to avoid having babies with certain zodiac signs. That’s why January, 2015, the last month for the Year of the Horse saw a common choice of cesarean section (剖腹产) ahead of the expected date of childbirth. It’ s not because they like Horses so much, but because babies born next month were Goats, which are a zodiac sign not favored by Chinese parents. Tiger is another undesirable animal, due to its agressiveness. Many Chinese regions saw a sharp decline of birthrate during those years. Although the belief and tradition of the zodiac sign have been over thousands of years, the trend of using it in making major decisions did not really exist until the past few decades. As China plays such an important role in the global economy and geopolitics, the decisions made based on the zodiac and other Chinese traditions end up influencing more people around the world. 【1】Who is the passage most likely written for? A.A Chinese. B.A foreigner. C.A teacher. D.A researcher. 【2】If you were born in 1989, what is your zodiac sign? A.Snake. B.Dragon. C.Pig. D.Horse. 【3】Why did parents choose to give birth to babies in January 2015? A.Because the doctors advised them to do so. B.Because it was the expected date of childbirth.

“The future belongs to those who believe in the beauty of their dreams.” Eleanor Roosevelt once said. If we want to accomplish anything in life, let us remember that we should never give up. Viennese - born composer Frederick Loewe, whom we remember from his musical scores that include My Fair Lady, Gigi and Camelot, was not always famous. He learned to play the piano with the great masters of Europe and achieved huge success as a musician and composer in his early years. But when he immigrated to the United States, he failed as a pianist. For a while he tried other types of work. But he never gave up his dream and continued to play the piano and write music. During those years, he could not always afford to make ends meet by playing the piano. One day, bent over the keyboard, he heard nothing but the music that he played with inspiration. When he finished and looked up, he was surprised to find that he had an audience - three men who were seated on the floor. They said nothing and made no movement toward the piano. Instead they dug into their pockets, took out all the money they had, placed it on the piano and walked out, empty-handed. Deeply touched by the beauty of his music, these men recognized excellence and responded to it. Whatever you do, try your best. If what you do is worth doing and if you believe that who you are is of value, then you cannot afford to be content with mediocrity (平庸). When you choose the path of excellence through this life, you will bring out the best in yourself and receive the best it can offer in return. 【1】What can we learn from Roosevelt’s words? A.It is difficult to do our best. B.It is important to be successful in life. C.We should be strict with ourselves. D.We should face the future with the most dreams. 【2】What happened to Frederick Loewe after he immigrated to America? A.He lost his hearing. B.He led a hard life for a while. C.He enjoyed great success. D.He became a famous pianist. 【3】Why did the three men pay Frederick? A.They were supposed to do that. B.They wanted to show their sympathy. C.They were moved by his performance. D.They wanted to make friends with him. 【4】Which of the following can be the best title for the passage? A.Practice makes perfect. B.Never give up your dream. C.It’s never too old to learn. D.Rome was not built in a day.

A recent study questions whether placing attention on economic growth is the best way to improve child nutrition in low-and middle-income countries. Subu is a professor at the Harvard School of Public Health in Massachusetts. He says there is a common belief on the best way to improve child health in developing countries. He puts it this way: “Let’s just go after economic growth and then everything else will just follow.” But he says that is not always true. Take India for example. A common measure of a country’s economic health is GDP (gross domestic product). India’s GDP has been growing by more than five percent a year. That is a higher growth rate than most Western countries. Yet more than two-fifths of India’s children are underweight. And Subu says, the percentage of underweight children has changed little since the early 1990s. He and other researchers asked a question, “Was economic growth failing to benefit children in countries other than India?” They looked at health surveys carried out since 1990 in 36 low-and middle-income countries, mostly South of Africa’s Sahara Desert. The researchers compared the effect of GDP growth and signs of child malnutrition-like physical weakness, slow growth and being underweight. But the researchers found only a small relationship. The group reported their findings in the Journal Lancet Global Health. Subu says money should be spent on clear water, waste - treatment system and other programs. “Without these directing measures, what we are seeing is that economic growth by itself is not making much difference,” said Subu. But that is not how Lawrence Haddad sees the case. He is head of the Institute of Development Studies in Britain. Lawrence Haddad says malnutrition has dropped sharply over the past 20 years in countries like Vietnam, Ghana or Brazil. He says economic growth was responsible for half of those declines. “The other half is because of improvements in water, health systems and nutrition programs,” said Haddad. 【1】Why does the author taking India for example? A.To stress the importance of GDP. B.To arouse reader’s interest in the topic. C.To prove economic growth can’t improve child nutrition. D.To show India has a higher growth rate than most Western countries. 【2】What does the underlined word “malnutrition” in paragraph 2 mean? A.Lacking nutrition. B.Getting nutrition. C.Providing nutrition. D.Wasting nutrition. 【3】Which statement is true according to the passage? A.two-fifths of India’s children are underweight. B.Economic growth only fails to benefit children in India.: C.Lawrence Haddad looked at health surveys carried out since 1990. D.Subu believed economic growth itself could hardly make a difference. 【4】What is Lawrence Haddad’s attitude toward Subu’s findings? A.Supportive. B.Disapproving. C.Unconcerned. D.Doubtful.

When I turned, I nearly knocked her down. “Move out of the way,” I said impatiently. She walked away, and her little heart was 【1】 (break). I didn’t realize 【2】 rudely I’d spoken. When I 【3】 (lie) awake in bed, God’s small voice came to me and said, “While 【4】 (deal) with a stranger, you use common politeness, but the children you love, you seem to abuse.
