I took down the violin I made in the past two months, and walked towards the farmland outside. The violin shined in the sunlight, and I admitted, unwillingly, that it looked good. But I knew it was a mockery (笑柄) of my failure to find beauty. “What makes a violin beautiful?” I first asked this question as a three-year-old child and now again as a teenager. When I listened to a violin for the first time, I was so astonished by its beauty that I imagined a fairy living in the wooden frame. But fairies faded when I grew older. I wanted a reasonable answer to the question. I referred to Professor Ruan, my violin teacher, who introduced the violin to me 14 years ago. This 85-year-old man rhapsodized about (热烈赞美)the legend of Antonio Stradivari. “His violins are the most beautiful works human has ever crafted.” “Make a violin with your own hands,” Professor Ruan suggested,“When you play it, you’ll know.” However, when Professor Ruan introduced to me a violin workshop, what I saw was far from my expectation. In front of me was a fat worker, shirtless and sunburned, soon to become my master. What shocked me most was that the “master” knew nearly nothing about music. His rough hands had been tending crops, not instruments, for most of his life. Two months later, standing outside the workshop, I was disappointed. Yes, I just finished or copied a Stradivarius violin. But I didn't find beauty in it. Then I remembered Professor Ruan's words, “When you play it, you'll know.” So I closed my eyes, and focused on where my fingers and strings touched. Music flowed suddenly so beautifully that for a moment I doubted my own ears. Slowly I opened my eyes, and with surprise found the fairy of my childhood fantasy dancing to my music --- the two-year-old daughter of the master. Professor Ruan was right. I didn’t find beauty until I played music with the violin, because beauty isn’t in the instrument itself. It’s just here, deep down, in ourselves. 【1】When he listened to a violin for the first time, what happened to the writer? A. He found the violin looked beautiful. B. He was astonished to see a fairy in the violin. C. He became interested in the violin. D. He began to learn how to play violin. 【2】After consulting Professor Ruan, what did the writer think made a violin beautiful? A. The person who makes the violin. B. The person who plays the violin. C. The appearance of the violin. D. The sound of the violin. 【3】What did the writer do in the workshop during two months? A. He listened to the legend of Antonio Stradivari. B. He taught the master knowledge of music. C. He played music with the violin for the daughter of the master. D. He made his own violin with the help of the master. 【4】Why did the writer feel disappointed when he was outside the workshop? A. He created an ugly-looking violin. B. His master knew little about music. C. He failed to find beauty in the violin. D. He had to work in a terrible workshop. 【5】The text mainly tells us that . A. music brings beauty B. beauty lies in our hearts C. we should develop a hobby D. teachers are important to students |

The best-known example of external( 外部的)influence causing language change is the "Americanization"of world culture, which has caused English words to appear in city streets all over the world. The effect is most noticeable in pop music. Foreign groups often record in English, and the words are picked up and repeated in the same language everywhere, even by children who otherwise have little or no command of the language. I once met a Brazilian child of about ten who could count ‘one, two, three’, but only by adding the words ‘o’clock, four o’clock rock ’at the end. Some people are often strongly critical of the influence of English on their language --- especially when an English word replaces a traditional word. In 1977, France passed a law banning the use of English words in official situations if an equivalent( 意义相同的)French expression existed --- but the law seemed to be honored more in the breaking than in the observing. Some other countries have considered introducing a similar law despite the evidence that such laws have very little effect, and that the arrival of loan words( 外来词) can greatly enrich a language (as indeed in the case of English itself, which has a long history of welcoming foreign words). However, not everyone is critical. In particular, commercial firms and advertisers are well aware of the potential selling power that the use of English vocabulary can bring. In Japan, English is even used in television commercials, despite the fact that the majority of viewers would not understand exactly what was being said: the excellence implied by the mere use of English is apparently enough to command the strategy to the advertisers. Most of the influence of English is upon the vocabulary of foreign languages, but surveys are slowly bringing to light several cases where word order or word structure has been affected. Sentences of the type “The book sells well”, using an active construction for a passive meaning, have begun to appear in Danish (Bogen soelger godt). Several languages keep the English plural ending when they make use of a loan word, and do not translate it into the native form, e.g. drinks. There are many other such cases. 【1】Why could the Brazilian child speak ‘one, two, three’ in English? A. Because he had seen these words everywhere in the street. B. Because he had learnt how to tell the time in English. C. Because he had made himself master of English. D. Because he had heard these words in songs a lot. 【2】What can we infer about the law passed in France in1977? A. It was strict. B. It was unfair. C. It was often ignored. D. It was strongly opposed. 【3】Some Japanese commercials use English in the hope of . A. following the American trend B. becoming world-famous C. enriching Japanese D. increasing sales 【4】The last paragraph is mainly developed by . A. providing examples B. making comparisons C. explaining grammar rules D. analyzing language change 【5】What is the authors attitude towards language change? A. Critical. B. Objective. C. Concerned. D. Supportive. |

Are we alone in the universe? A team of scientists announced on January 6, 2015 that they had identified eight planets beyond our solar system, three or four of which orbit in their stars’ “Goldilocks Zone” --- the region where temperatures are not too hot or too cold for water, which is a necessary ingredient for life as we know it, to exist liquid form.This may be good news for people hoping that Earth is not the only inhabited world in the universe. The scientists, led by Dr. Guilermo Torres of the Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics, made the discoveries using data collected by the planet-seeking Kepler telescope. NASA launched Kepler in 2009. Since then, the telescope has identified more than 1,000 planets outside of our solar system. Torres and his team analyzed the data about the eight newly discovered world to determine which ones are most likely to be similar to our Earth. Among the new discoveries, the scientists say the planets called Kepler438b and 442b are the closest to Earth. Kepler 438b is just about 10% larger than our planet, and gets 40% more of its energy from its star than Earth receives from the Sun. Temperatures there would be about 140 degrees. Kepler 442b is about 33% larger than Earth, but receives 30% less energy from its star. That would make it a potentially chillier world than our own.Torres says it is possible for life to exist and survive in either of those temperatures, but for that to happen, these planets would need to have another key ingredient for life: a heat-trapping atmosphere like Earth’s. While these findings add to the possibility that life exists beyond Earth, Torres cautions against drawing conclusions, “We are not claiming they are inhabited,” he says. In fact, these planets are so far away that the scientists cannot observe them directly, which can be explanation for why for now it remains unknown whether these planets contain life. But the discovery of planets in their stars’ habitable zones suggests that somewhere out there, some form of alien life may have taken hold. 【1】The scientists have identified eight planets, . A. which are suitable for humans to live on B. some of which are possible for life to exist on C. some of which have the same situations as Earth D. which are not too hot or too cold for water to exist on 【2】Which statement about the discovery of Torres and his team is TRUE? A. Kepler 438b is too hot for any life to exist on B. Kepler 438b and 442b are the farthest to Earth C. They have made the discoveries through Kepler D. They have discovered over 1000 planets in 7 years 【3】What is the possible thing that Kepler 442b lacks for life to exist on? A. The water B. The sunlight C. The soil D. The atmosphere 【4】About their exploration, Torres wants to indicate that . A. there is a lot left to learn B. they have had decisive gains C. it is the first in human history D. it is certain for life on the planets 【5】Which can be the best title for this passage? A. Are We Alone? B. Eye on the Stars C. Discover Another Earth D. Discovery of New Stars to Live on |

阅读短文，按照题目要求用英语回答问题。 Every person has a history of pain and tragedy that includes regret from the situation. At times, it’s often hard to explain that pain to someone else. The challenge with a tragedy is the lack of support from someone. This has often been my challenge when I try to explain what occurred to me. When I was younger, I was a victim of a tragic accident that changed my life both academically and emotionally. At sixteen months old, due to the neglect of my babysitter I fell off the bed. The injury was so severe that I was rushed to the emergency room and the doctors explained to my mom that I suffered from a blood clot (血块) located on the left side of the brain. I was later diagnosed with what is known as a traumatic brain injury (外伤性脑损伤)．This accident affects my long term memory and testing ability. I often struggle with understanding information related to school and feel frustrated that I will not pass my tests. The pressure of school is so much, since I must always work harder than most students. I become easily disappointed that I study a lot but often flunk or re-take tests. It is hard to imagine, because in my mind I feel prepared for the work; however, the test results do not connect with the information in my brain. Although I always don’t pass my tests, I feel like this injury encourages me to work and shows me that I can be confident when it comes to the future. For example, I have been able to maintain my grades, been employed for over a year at a local restaurant, and obtained my drivers license. I look forward to attending college, getting married, raising a family, and being a success. I will continue to live my life to the fullest and prove that an injury does not limit my life journey. 【1】What is worse when someone suffers a tragedy in his life according to the author?(no more than 7 words) 【2】What was the author’s tragic accident that changed his life? (no more than 9 words) 【3】Why is the author always struggling with his study at school? (no more than 8 words) 【4】What does the underlined word “flunk” mean in the last paragraph? (1 word) 【5】What do you think of the author? Give your reasons. (no more than 25words) |
