阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C、D）中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

A

At many modern festivals in the UK, people gather together in a field, listening to music, sleeping in tents and killing time as they like. However, some of the big-sized festivals often result in traffic jams, piles of wastes, and large electricity demands. Therefore, smaller, greener festivals

are increasingly gaining favor.

Cambridge Folk Festival

Aware that folk music fans tend to be fond of beer, the organizers of the festival have come up with a creative way of avoiding mountains of plastic glasses. Visitors to this 4-day event have to order one beer glass in June. They keep and reuse the glass throughout the festival. Besides, everyone is given a bag for his recyclable rubbish on entry.

Need to know: The festival takes place in Cambridge around the end of July.

Latitude

Latitude was set up in 2006, with a clear aim to offer unusual rock music. It also has a strong environmental focus: all knives, forks and plates provided by the organizers are biodegradable (微生物可分解的)，and plastic packaging is forbidden. Besides, solar showers are supplied with eco-friendly bath products, and everyone will be willing to take time to get clean.

Need to know: Latitude takes place in mid-July on the grounds of Henham Park.

Big Green Gathering

For more than 20 years the Big Green Gathering has played a leading role in raising environmental awareness by promoting solar-powered stages and organic (有机的）food. Many people flood here not only for its wonderful music theatre and dance, but also for the event’s green focus.

Need to know: The Big Green Gathering takes place in early August in Somerset.

21. If you have some spare time around August 5th, which festival can you take part in?

A. Cambridge Folk Festival

B. Latitude

C. Big Green Gathering

D. All of the three festivals

22. What do you have to do on Cambridge Folk Festival?

A. Order one beer glass in July.

B. Order one beer glass in June.

C. Drink beer with plastic glasses.

D. Drink as much beer as possible.

23. What ‘s the special feature of the Festival “Latitude”?

A. People can enjoy different kinds of music.

B. Clean food is provided during the Festival.

C. Plastic packages are seldom used.

D. All knives, forks and plates provided by the organizers are environmentally friendly.

B

Some dances gain more popularity than others because they can be performed to different kinds of music and the steps change accordingly. One such dance is waltz.

There is a basic form for waltz, which you can see in this drawing of a dancing couple. The man places one arm around the woman’s waist and she places her opposite hand on his shoulder. Then, they stretch their other arms out from their bodies and clasp hand. If someone tries to teach you a formal kind of dancing, chances are your teacher will start with the waltz.

There are lots of different kinds of waltz, all performed to different types of waltz music.? The music might be fast or slow but what they all have is a regular one-two-three, one-two-three rhythm.

The traditional form is the old-school waltz in which dancers turn all the time with a hopping(跳跃的), springy（有弹力的）step. This waltz has a slow, smooth, gliding step. There’s also the Mexican waltz, which moves much faster. If you have listened to Mexican waltz music, you can imagine how fast the dancers had to move to keep up with the music.

Today, ballroom dancing is almost considered a competitive sport; professionals perform different dances, each with strict rules. Everything from where the dancers place their hands to how they move is judged. In the glide waltz, dancers are judged by how smoothly they move. In the old days, if someone said, “ I can dance with a glass of water on my head,” you knew that person was a fine dancer. In the past, some people learned how to dance by reading books, while others studied with a teacher called the “dancing master.” How do people learn to dance today?

24. Which belongs to the basic form for the waltz?

A. The man places one arm around the woman’s shoulder.

B. The woman places one hand on the man’s waist.

C. The man holds the woman’s right hand by using his right hand.

D. The woman puts one hand on the man’s shoulder and the other hand was held by the man’s.

25. How many kinds of waltz are mentioned in the text?

A. One

B. Two

C. Three

D. Four

26. How to understand the underlined sentence in the last Paragraph?

A. The person dances with a glass of water on his hand.

B. The person has to dance with a glass of water to prove his ability.

C. The person has excellent dancing skills.

D. The person wants to show off his dancing skills.

27. What will most probably be talked about in the paragraph that follows?

A. How people learned to dance in the past.

B. How people learned to dance with the “dancing master”.

C. How people learn to dance nowadays.

D. The difference between dances in the past and dances today.

C

Ever since I started my freshman year in another state, I’ve realized that people make many assumptions about college students, many of which are based on partying. Even my sociology pr ofessor jokingly told our class: “If your motto isn’t ‘I am partying therefore I am,’ you’re college-ing wrong.”

Whenever I say partying isn’t fun, I get the same response: wide-eyed stares, dropped jaws and a resounding “Seriously?”, w hich makes me feel l ike I’m being judged.

Don’t get me wrong –I’ve tried to enjoy dancing in hot, crowded spaces to loud rap music. But at last, I’ve always escaped to an empty corner while trying to ignore rude, crazy people. I wondered if I was weird for wanting to stay in on a Friday night to read a book. I even questioned whether or not I was living the “authentic(真正的)” college experience.

“Maybe you –a shy boy –just need to go out more.” Friends have said. Suggestions like these make me think about food. Have you ever tasted something that someone else really likes and you don’t? When that happens to me, I have a habit of eating more hoping that it will eventually taste good. Does that ever work? No.

For me, partying is a lot like that. From what I can tell, I’m just not a fan. I’m not trying to set myself apart – I just have a different definition of fun.

As you begin to think about your present college life, I hope this helps you realize that there isn’t just one way to experience college life. Some turn up at a party to relax. I turn to a good book. Which option have you made in college? And remember: college is a place where you can

keep yourself originally. It means not going with the flow and means figuring out what you want for yourself, originating your own values and thinking a way towards your future success.

28. What should college life be like in most people’s opinion?

A. Making assumptions is part of college life.

B. Everyone will do something wrong in college.

C. College students are involved in partying.

D. College professors seldom joke college students.

29. What does the author think of college parties?

A. Comfortable.

B. Boring.

C. Unavoidable.

D. Exciting.

30. The author talks about food in the fourth paragraph because _________.

A. he likes eating tasty food at parties.

B. there is much food at college parties.

C. he wants to compare food to parties.

D. he is really a food fan.

31. What is the author’s purpose to write this passage?

A. To remind college students of what college means.

B. To introduce what subject students can learn in college.

C. To share some good choices most college students have made.

D. To show his strong support to the present college life.

D

Hate washing clothes? Shin Sakane has a solution.

The Japanese inventor received 6 billion yen($53 million) from partners, including Panasonic Corp. Last month to develop “the Laundroid”–a robot, which Sakane is developing to not only wash and dry clothes, but also sort, fold and skillfully arrange them. The equipment could play the roles of washing machine, dryer and clothes drawer in people’s homes.

Sakane, whose earlier inventions include a golf pole made of space materials, said these inventions would bring closer his dream.

While the full product is expected to be put into the market in 2019, an early version that can only sort and fold clothing goes on sale worldwide in March.

The goal is to eventually get the price of the full version to less than about 300,000

yen($2,700). The model going on sale in March will probably cost more because of higher production costs.

“We decided that by combining Panasonic’s washing and drying machine technology and folding technology, it is possible to bring an all-in-one（多功能）product to the market,”said Kyoko Ishii, a spokesman for Osaka-based Panasonic.

Users will still have to do some tasks on their own, such as making sure clothes aren’t inside out. Each piece of clothes takes about 10 minutes to fold. Sakane thinks it is because of the necessary to scan each part of the clothing and communicate through Wi-Fi with a central server. He is working to get it down to 3-5 minutes.

32. What’s the function of “the Laundroid”?

A. washing and drying clothes.

B. washing, drying, sorting, folding and arranging clothes.

C. washing, drying clothes and setting them in the drawer.

D. washing, drying , sorting and folding clothes.

33. What can we infer from the last paragraph?

A. Users still have to do some tasks by themselves.

B. Folding each piece of clothes takes much time because of communicating with a server.

C. Sakane is working to cut down the time to 3 minutes.

D. There’re still some disadvantages about the new washing robot.

34. What’s the best title of the text?

A. A famous Japanese inventor

B. Shin Sakane’s invention

C. A Robot to help you with washing clothes

D. the wide use of a new washing machine.

35. What does the text most probably come from?

A. A news story

B. A science magazine

C. A website on art

D. A biography

6 cultural differences between China and the US

Living in a culture that is different from your own can be both an exciting and challenging experience. You

have to learn different cultural practices and try to adapt to them. 36

1. Privacy

Chinese people do not have the same concept of privacy as Americans do. They talk about topics such as ages, income or marriage, 37

2. Family

In China, elders are traditionally treated with enormous respect and dignity while the young are cherished and nurtured. In America, the goal of the family is to encourage independence, particularly that of the children. Unlike the Chinese, 38

3. Friends

Chinese people have different meanings to define friends. Just hanging out together time to time is not friendship. Friendship means lifelong friends who feel deeply obligated to give each other whatever help might seem required. Americans always call people they meet friends, so the definition of friends is general and different. There are work friends, playing friends, school friends and drinking friends.

4. 39

As is well known, the Chinese like to save. They are always conservative when they are planning to spend money. It is different in the USA, where far fewer families are saving money for emergencies and education than their Chinese counterparts.

5. Education

Chinese people value education and career more than Americans, who in turn put more emphasis on good character and faith.

6. Collectivism(集体主义) VS. Individualism

40 If you achieve something in the US, it's because you were great. While in China, if you achieve something in China it's because the team, or family, or company is great. Everything you do gets attributed to the greater whole, while in America individual merits are celebrated.

A. Basically China values the community and the US values the individual.

B. The following are the top six cultural differences between China and the US.

C. which Americans think is annoying and intrusive.

D. Value.

E. Chinese children depend on their families too much.

F. the older Americans seldom live with their children.

G. Money.

Over their 58 , I told them. “I am choosing to live. Operate on me as if I am alive, not 59 .”

However, unless I were to give up one of them, I will turn off TV rather than to switch off my cellphone or cut off the Internet.

Dear Zhang Ming,

I’m sorry to hear that you’ve had a hard time i n America. But, I think if you do what I say, things will work out better.

First, you should try your best to improve your English, and talk with more of the people around you. Second, it would be a good idea to volunteer to help people, which will make a good impression on others. Finally, why not participate in more activities? Taking part in activities will get you more chances to meet people and make friends with them.

I hope these ideas will be useful. And I hope you will have a great time in America.

Looking forward to your reply.

Yours,
