21、Here’s how Father’s Day is celebrated in some countries around the world.

Australia

Its Father’s Day is celebrated on the first Sunday of September. It’s said that it chose September because the time when much of the world observes Father’s Day was already too full of holidays. The day is typically spent in showering Dad with cards and gifts in much the same way as we do in America.

Sweden

It celebrates Father’s Day on the second Sunday in November. Norway, its neighbor, does the same. This year their Father’s Day falls on Sunday, November 14. The tradition originally came from the American Father’s Day observance and was celebrated in June, but businesses advocated that the holiday be moved to November, a typically slow month for the economy. Because of this, Father’s Day gifts are so attractive and popular.

Germany

Its Father’s Day always falls on a Thursday in May. This year, it was celebrated on Thursday, May 13. It’s a national holiday, and in most areas of the country the following Friday is as well, so many celebrate with a 4-day weekend filled with outdoor Father’s Day activities.

Russia

Russia’s Father’s Day began as a celebration for soldiers, which then became a holiday specially for men. Over time, the celebration of men has evolved into the country’s modern Father’s Day. Because it has much to do with soldiers, the holiday is known as Defender of the Fatherland Day, and is celebrated annually on February 23rd with activities that many men participate in.

【1】Which country celebrates Father’s Day in a similar way to America?

A．Sweden.

B．Germany.

C．Australia.

D．Russia.

【2】Why did Sweden move Father’s Day from June to November?

A．It wants people to spend more.

B．It can have more time to celebrate.

C．Norway observes it in November.

D．There’re too many holidays in June.

【3】What do we know about Russia’s Father’s Day?

A．It falls on the same day as another holiday.

B．It affected Germany’s Father’s Day.

C．It has a 4-day celebration each year.

D．It was rooted in honoring soldiers.

22、If you had to pick one, who do you think is greater in terms of their contributions to the Western world: British physicist Isaac Newton or Greek philosopher Aristotle?

Chances are that you’d find it hard to make a decision, at least right away.

But somehow, when it comes to picking a major at college, the decision couldn’t be easier: Science majors – the likes of technology, engineering and math – are the “wiser” choice because they’re considered to be useful, while studying liberal arts majors – language, music and philosophy – is believed to take you nowhere.

But if we take our eyes away from job skills for one second and look at liberal arts from a different perspective, we can see how important they are. In the BBC’s new documentary Civilizations, for example, presenters take us to 31 countries on six continents to appreciate human creativity, like Angkor Wat (吴哥窟) in Cambodia.

To Simon Schama, one of the presenters, human civilization isn’t just about technological inventions, but also “those moments when human beings first began to create things that were not purely for food or shelter, but were there to be seen, and to leave a mark of their existence for future humans to witness and admire”, he said.

In fact, by comparing science and liberal arts, we’re drawing “an artificial line” between the two. But to some of the greatest innovators in history, this line never existed in the first place.

Leonardo da Vinci, for example, was just as successful a scientist as he was a painter. Then there’s Steve Jobs, who, despite being an engineer, was also an artist on the inside. “It’s in Apple’s DNA that technology alone is not enough – it’s technology married with liberal arts, married with the humanities, that yields us the result that makes our heart sing.”

【1】What’s the main purpose of this text?

A. To introduce the contributions of great men.

B. To compare science and liberal arts majors.

C. To explain the line between science and art.

D. To warn people not to undervalue liberal arts.

【2】Which of the following is true according to the text?

A. Leonardo da Vinci was more successful as a painter.

B. It is the advanced technology that makes Apple successful.

C. People find it easier to choose a major at college than before.

D. There is actually no artificial line between science and liberal arts.

【3】What can we infer from the passage?

A. Many people consider liberal arts majors useless.

B. Physicists are usually more important than philosophers.

C. Innovators prefer to become artists on the inside.

D. The program Civilizations can let us enjoy human creativity in 31 countries.

23、Masuma Ahuja can vividly recall what she wore on her first day of school in the United States: black jeans and a gray and orange T-shirt.

It was the early 2000s and her family had just moved from India to Pittsburgh. She remembers an American boy at her middle school asking her, on that very first day, about what she was wearing. He said, “Oh, I didn’t realize that you wore Western clothes in India.”

He thought India was a place where there were snake charmers and elephants on the street. The India that her classmate had pictured was pulled from storybooks and fantasy but the reality was that Ahuja grew up in more wealthy neighborhoods of Mumbai and Bangalore. Those misconceptions about the lives of those in different places — especially women and girls — stuck with her as she went on to become a journalist at The Washington Post and CNN.

And it raised a question — what is life really like for girls around the world? She sets out to answer it in her new book, Girlhood: Teenagers Around The World In Their Own Voices. Published in February, it captures snapshots (捕获快照) of everyday life from 30 girls around the globe in the form of diary entries.

There’s Claudie, a 13-year-old surfer from Pango Village in Vanuatu who dreams of becoming a lawyer; Halima, a 17-year-old from Mazar-i-Sharif, Afghanistan, who listens to and intends to follow a famous singer Celine Dion and helps her father peel (削皮) potatoes for his job before school; Sattigul, a 16- year-old who comes from a family of nomadic herders (游牧民族) in Mongolia, loves her pet eagle and wants to be an English translator one day.

When asked about what she hoped her readers could take away from her book, Ahuja said, “I hope that every reader will find themselves reflected in unexpected corners of their stories. And I hope that every girl who picks up the book recognizes that her voice is important and unique.”

【1】How did Ahuja’s American classmate feel about her dressing?

A．Terrified.

B．Bored.

C．Pleased.

D．Surprised.

【2】Why did Ahuja write her new book?

A．To realize her dream to be a famous journalist.

B．To help women to fight for their place at work.

C．To advertise her own country around the world.

D．To show the real lives of girls in different places.

【3】What do the girls mentioned in paragraph 5 have in common?

A．They do well in schoolwork.

B．They have their own dreams.

C．They live in wealthy families.

D．They make a living themselves.

【4】What is the last paragraph mainly about?

A．Ahuja’s praise for girls’ confidence.

B．Why every girl’s voice matters a lot.

C．Ahuja’s expectations for her readers.

D．Why girls think highly of Ahuja’s book.

24、Every day we are exposed to images, videos, music and news．In this age of visual and aural hyper-stimulation, the medium of radio is making a great comeback.

“We’re at the beginning of a golden age of audio,” said US-based podcaster Alex Blumberg in an article in The Sydney Morning Herald． In the last month alone, 15 percent of US adults listened to a radio podcast (播客)．These statistics, released by Edison Research, show the successful evolution of traditional radio broadcasts to the present day’s digital podcast format．The term “podcast” was invented in 2004, but the trend only started gaining mainstream popularity in recent years．With the sharp increase in consumer demand for smartphones and tablets, podcast sales have jumped.

The appeal of the podcast partly lies in its multiplatform delivery and on-demand capabilities (功能)．You can listen during those extra minutes of the day when you’re walking to the shops, waiting in a queue or riding the subway．Similar to television shows, podcasts are generally free to download and most offer new content every week.

Donna Jackson, 22, Sydney University media graduate, listens to podcasts two or three times a week, via iTurns．“I listen while I’m wandering around the house doing something else．It makes completing a boring task much more enjoyable… And it’s an easy way of keeping in touch with what’s going on in the rest of the world,” she said, “I mainly listen to BBC podcasts, but recently I’ve also been listening to This American Life and Serial．They have a special skill to really draw you in.”

Unlike television and music, the audio format has the potential to create a deep impression on readers．Blumberg says this owes to the podcast’s ability “to create close relationship and emotional connection.” Sydney University undergraduate Hazel Proust, majoring in social work and arts, agrees．“When you’re listening, it feels as if the voice of the podcast’s storyteller is talking directly to you．It’s comforting, ” said Proust.

It seems the age-old tradition of verbal storytelling is very much alive and well.

【1】From the first two paragraphs, we can learn that ________.

A. traditional broadcast has come back

B. Americans love listening to the radio

C. podcasts have become very popular today

D. smartphones sell well because of podcasts

【2】The writer mentions Donna Jackson mainly to ________.

A. tell how young people relax themselves

B. explain why young people like podcasts

C. introduce what programs podcasts are presenting

D. show how popular podcasts are presenting

【3】Paragraph 5 is mainly about ________.

A. the influence of radios

B. the advantage of podcasts

C. readers’ impression on radios

D. people’s reaction to the medium

【4】What is probably the best title of the passage?

A. Return of Radio

B. Opinions of Podcast

C. Features of Radio

D. Technology of Podcast

26、阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。

Peter woke up early in the morning. He went downstairs in a hurry and started to have hisbreakfast as quickly as possible.

“Why are you in such a hurry, early bird?" Mum asked him. “We will have an English spelling test today, Mum," Peter said. “Mr. White promised to offer prizes to those who get 100 scores. I've been studying the word list since last week. Although the words are difficult, I am well prepared for them.”

Peter reviewed the spelling of each word once more carefully when Dad drove down.

Thirty words later, the test papers were collected by Mr. White. “I am to mark your papers now," he told the class. After marking the test papers, Mr. White said, “Three of you won a prize today for excellent test scores. Peter. David and Mary got 100 percent on the spelling test!" Mr. White praised them. Meanwhile, he gave the three students each a dictionary. Peter's was an English-Chinese dictionary—the one he liked best. Peter was so excited that he held it high when his classmates cheered. "This is my happiest moment,” Peter thought.

After Mr. White gave the test paper back, Peter had a look at the words, feeling proud of his spelling. All of a sudden, the word “contribution" confused him. It didn't seem right. Peter began to compare them after taking out the wordlist. “C-o-n-t-r-i-b-u-s-i-o-n，”he whispered. He had spelledit wrong.

“What am I to do?” Peter said to himself. “I expect my classmates to think I'm a master in spelling. If I tell Mr. White one of my spelling words is wrong, I'll have to give my prize back, or I will become an example for telling a lie". Staring at the red sign “100%” which was written at his test paper, Peter was lost in thought. After a while, he remembered a lesson Mum used to teach him, “We ought to be an honest person.”

注意：

1.续写词数应为150左右；
