a. because frenchmen introduced ballet to italy. b. because frenchmen created many ballet steps. c. because the ballet steps are all named in french. d. because the first ballet company was founded in france.25. when did the romantic ballet appear? a. in the 14th century. b. in the 19th century. c. in the 15th century. d. in the 2lth century.26. from the last paragraph, we can know ballet becomes more_. a. reasonable b. romantic c. popular d. professional27. the passage mainly talks about _. a. the development of classical ballet b. the popularity of classical ballet c. the meaning of classical ballet d. the techniques of ballet dancingcthere are two types of people in the world. although they have equal degree of health and wealth and other comforts of life, one becomes happy; the other becomes unhappy. this arises from the different ways in which they consider things, persons, events and the resulting effects upon their minds. people who are to be happy fix their attention on the convenience of things: the pleasant parts of conversation, the well prepared dishes, the goodness of the wine, and the fine weather. they enjoy all the cheerful things. those who are to be unhappy think and speak only of the opposite things. therefore, they are continually dissatisfied. by their remarks, they sour the pleasure of society, offend (hurt) many people, and make themselves disagreeable everywhere. the intention of criticizing and being disliked is perhaps taken up by imitation(仿效). it grows into a habit, unknown to its possessors. the habit may be strong, but it may be cured when those who have it realize its bad effects on their interests and tastes. i hope this little warning may be of service to them, and help them change this habit. although in fact it is chiefly an act of the imagination, it has serious results in life since it brings on deep sorrow and bad luck. those people offend many others; nobody loves them, and no one treats them with more than the most common politeness and respect. if they bring on themselves public objections, no one will defend or excuse them, and many will join to criticize their wrong doings. these people should change this bad habit and be pleased with what is pleasing, without worrying needlessly about themselves and others. if they dont, it will be good for others to avoid any contact with them. otherwise, it can be disagreeable and sometimes very inconvenient, especially when one becomes mixed up in their quarrels.28. people who are unhappy _.a. always consider things differently from othersb. usually are affected by the results of certain thingsc. usually misunderstand what others think or sayd. always discover the unpleasant side of certain things29. the underlined phrase “sour the pleasure of society” in the second paragraph means _.a. have a good taste with social life b. make others unhappyc. tend to scold others openly d. enjoy the pleasure of life30. we can conclude from the second paragraph that_.a. we should pity all such unhappy people.b. such unhappy people are dangerous to social life.c. people can get rid of the habit of unhappiness.d. unhappy people can not understand happy persons.31. if such unhappy person insists on keeping the habit, the author suggests people should_.a. prevent any communication with them.b. show no respect and politeness to themc. persuade them to recognize the bad effectsd. quarrel with them until they realize the mistakesdmost musicians agree that the best violins were made in cremona, italy, about 200 years ago. they even sound better than violins made today. violin makers and scientists try to make instruments like the old italian violins. but they arent the same. why are these old italian violins so special? many people think they have an answer.some people think it is the age of the violins. but there is a problem here. not all old violins sound wonderful. only those fromcremonaare special. so age cannot be the answer. other people think the secret to those violins is the wood. it must be from certain kinds of trees. it must not be too young or too old. perhaps the violin makers of cremons knew something special about wood for violins.but the kind of wood may not be so important. it may be more important to cut the wood in a special way. wood for a violin must be cut into the right size and shape. the smallest difference will change the sound of the violin. musicians sometimes think that this is the secret of the italians. size and shape may not be the answer either. scientists make new violins that are exactly the same size and shape. but the new ones still do not sound as good as the old ones. some scientists think the secret may be the varnish (清漆), which covers the wood of the violin and makes it look shiny. it also helps the sound of the instrument. since no one knows what the italian violin makers used in their varnish, no one can make the same varnish today.there may never be other violins like the violins ofcremona. and there are not many of the old violins left. so these old violins are becoming more and more precious. 32. what would be the best title for the passage?a. the secrets of cremona violins b. the history of italian violinsc. special musical instruments d. how to make the best violins33. the main purpose of the first paragraph is to _. a. list some facts b. raise a questionc. give an opinion d. offer an answer34. what is still unclear about cremona violins according to the writer?a. the shape.b. the size.c. the wood.d. the varnish.35. what can we learn from this passage? a. modern things are always better than ancient ones. b. ancient things are always better than modern ones. c. once a cultural relic is lost, it can never be recovered. d. varnish for violins will become more and more precious.第二节：（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分） 根据短文的内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，选项中有两项为多余选项easy ways to keep your brain sharpeveryone is forgetful, but as we age, we start to feel like our brains are slowing down a bit and that can be a very annoying thing. 36 read on for some techniques worth trying.1. 37 people who regularly made plans and looked forward to upcoming events had a 50 percentreduced chance of alzheimers disease (早老性痴呆症), according to a recent study. 38 something as simple as setting a goal to have a weekly coffee date with a friend will do. theres evidence that people who have a purpose in life or who are working on long or short-term goals appear to do better. in other words, keep your brain looking forward.2. go for a walk.mildly raised glucose (葡萄糖) levels can harm the area of the brain that helps you form memories and physical activity can help get blood glucose down to normal levels. in fact, exercise produces chemicals that are good for your brain. 39 3. learn something new.take a spanish class online, join a drawing club, or learn to play cards. a study found that mental stimulation (刺激) limits the weakening effects of aging on memory and the mind. but the best thing for your brain is when you learn something new and are physically active at the same time. 40 or go dancing with your friends.a. focus on the future.b. this can be especially harmful to the aged.c. so take a few minutes each day to do some reading. d. it should be something like learning gardening. e. in other words, when you take care of your body, you take care of your brain.f. but dont worry if your schedule isnt filled with life-changing events.g. luckily, research shows there is a lot you can do to avoid those moments.第三部分 英语知识运用（共两节，满分45分）第一节 完形填空（共20小题；每题1. 5分，满分30分）阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的四个选项（a, b, c和d）中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。 my wife and i moved into our home two years ago. we had a yard with a lot of 41 . very often when we have flowers, denise or i would plant some between the rocks, just to add some 42 to the area. last summer, i found a tiny little 43 inthe yard that i could not immediately identify. i knew i didnt plant it and denise said she didnt either. wedecidedto let it 44 growing until we couldfind outwhat it was. weeks passed and as i made my way back to the45 plant, it appeared to be a sunflower. i decided to 46 the weeds around it. as i pulled rocks from the area to get to the weeds, i noticed something 47 . the sunflower had not 48 where i saw it begin. itactuallyhad begun under a big 49 and grown under and around it to reach the 50 . thats when i51that if a tiny little sunflower didnt let a big rock stand in its52of developing, we too have the ability of doing the same thing.if we 53 ourselves like that little sunflower, we canreach where we 54 to go and get what we need for growth. we need to believe in ourselves knowing we have the 55 to achieve our goals. like the 56 , it knew it had the ability to get over the rocks because ithad 57 in itselfthat it would succeed. stand tall like the sunflower and be 58 of who and what we are, then the environment will begin to 59 us. we will find a way to go under or 60 any “rocks” in order to reach our goals. 41. a. flowersb. rocksc.insects d. vegetables 42. a. shape b. waterc. fertilizerd. colour 43. a. weedb. seedc. plantd.rock 44.a. continueb.stop c. improved. escape 45. a. weakb. strangec.lonely d. pretty 46. a.collect b. tendc. watchd. remove 47. a. wonderfulb. terriblec. unusuald.valuable 48. a. startedb.passed c. leftd. died 49. a. treeb.rock c.table d. wall 50.a. airb.sun c.top d. house 51. a.hoped b
