22、After written art had to fight a tough battle for attraction during the first decade of social media, owing to a certain group of writers, it is now on a significant rise. How Instagram and Twitter have offered jumpstarts to careers of authors like Dean Cocozza sets a blueprint for thousands of ambitious writers.

Cocozza started writing lyrics for his music as a teenager. He immediately had to experience that translating art to social media is not as simple as posting whatever his pen put down.

“Anyone who uses the platform with an intent will quickly learn that you only have the glimpse of a moment to catch the viewer’s attention. So the work I shared shifted to be more to the point, often one-liners. Then stuff started to go viral.”

The success and demand for more poems resulted in his first book Zero Dark Thirty, which sold out quickly. Despite the book containing mostly short writings, even said one-liners, Cocozza emphasizes that he doesn’t write for social media. “It was a very personal project resulting from a certain period of time” in his life. There are much bigger things that he works on and plans to get involved in.

Dean Cocozza has brought back emotional depth. In-between monetized (货币化的) content, blatant (明目张胆的) advertising and “perfect lives”, social media holds a spot for a new generation of artists, including literature. Critical thinkers and authentic writers remind the app’s consumers of their emotional human nature. Art galleries and bookstores might have lost a big part of their audience to digital media — but the art itself will always find ways to survive.

【1】What does the underlined word “it” in paragraph 1 refer to?

A．Written art.

B．A tough battle.

C．Social media.

D．A group of writers.

【2】What challenged Cocozza when he began to translate art to social media?

A．To earn a living.

B．To draw readers’ attention.

C．To protect his personal life.

D．To show emotional depth.

【3】What can be inferred from the last paragraph?

A．Works with emotional depth are widely accepted on social media.

B．People with perfect lives like social media better.

C．Art galleries and bookstores will soon disappear.

D．Arts of emotion depth still hold value on social media.

【4】What’s the author’s attitude towards art in the future?

A．Positive.

B．Carefree.

C．Doubtful.

D．Disapproving.

23、The expression“a thirst for knowledge" may soon have a new meaning for millions of people who have no way to get clean water. Researchers have developed a book with specially treated pages that can turn dirty water into clean and drinkable water. They say their invention could improve the lives of many in the developing world.

About 700 million people around the world are at risk of disease or even death because their drinking water is not clean. The water is polluted by harmful bacteria.

The book contains 25 pages. Each page is about one millimeter thick. The pages contain very small particles (微粒) of silver. The pages can be used as filters（过滤器）to remove harmful microorganisms(微生物) that can pollute drinking water. The filter kills the organisms that pass through it.

Pictures on the pages show the dangers of dirty water and how to use the book for those unable to read. The pages are made of filter paper. They are designed to be torn from the book. Water can be poured through the paper to be cleaned.

Ms. Dankovich, the inventor, says each page can treat up to 100 liters of water. She recently presented her invention at the meeting of the American Chemical Society in Boston, Massachusetts. She was asked whether she had considered adding classic literature on the book's pages.

"The idea of classic texts—that's of interest maybe later. We have discussed a little bit more exciting text. But we really haven't had the time to go through that part," she says.

Teri Dankovich and another researcher tested the drinkable book in Bangladesh, Ghana and South Africa. The tests proved to be successful.

Water for Life, a non-governmental organization, has provided financial support for the project.

【1】What do we learn about the book from the text?

A．It has pages with several functions.

B．It is about environment protection.

C．It sells well around the world.

D．It can treat about 100 liters of water.

【2】What does the underlined phrase "that part" in Paragraph 6 refer to?

A．Classic texts.

B．Exciting discussion.

C．Invention presentation.

D．Financial support.

【3】In which country did not the researchers test the drinkable book?

A．Ghana

B．Bangladesh.

C．South Africa.

D．America.

【4】What is the main idea of the passage?

A．Researchers have found a way to save those being ill.

B．Book pages could provide safe drinking water.

C．Knowledge is as important as drinkable water.

D．Millions of people are in great need of drinkable water.

24、The guzheng is a traditional Chinese musical instrument. It belongs to the zither (齐特琴) family of string instruments. It is the parent of many musical instruments of some other countries.

The guzheng should not be confused with the guqin, another ancient Chinese zither but without bridges. Now the guzheng is zither with movable bridges and usually 21 strings, although it can have from 15-25 strings. The guzheng’s strings were formerly made of silk, though most players used metal strings by the 20th century. Since the mid-20th century most performers use steel strings. The guzheng has a large resonant cavity (共振腔).

The guzheng has existed since the Warring States Period and became especially popular during the Qin dynasty. The number of strings on the guzheng has always fluctuated. There were as few as 6 to as many as 23 strings during the Tang dynasty. The earliest record of the guzheng belonged to the historian Sima Qian. Until 1961, the common guzheng had 16 strings, although by the mid-20th century 18-string guzheng were also in use. In 1961, Xu Zhenggao, together with Wang Xunzhi, introduced the first 21-string guzheng after two years of research and development. In 1960, they also invented the “S-shaped” left string rest, which was quickly adopted by all guzheng makers and is still used today. This curve allows for greater ease in tuning the strings and, combined with strings of different thickness, allows for greater resonance in both the deeper and the higher pitch (音调) ranges. The 21-string guzheng is the most commonly used one, but some traditional musicians still use the 16-string one.

【1】We can infer from Paragraph 1 that ________.

A．the guzheng is a musical instrument originating from Japan

B．there is only one kind of string instrument in China

C．there are many kinds of guzheng in the world

D．many musical instruments in other countries are related to the guzheng

【2】Which of the following material may NOT have been used to make the strings of the guzheng probably?

A．Silk

B．Steel

C．Wood

D．Copper

【3】The underlined word “fluctuated” in paragraph 3 can be replaced by “________”.

A．jumped

B．changed

C．flowed

D．waved

【4】Which of the following statements is true according to the passage?

A．The guqing is an ancient Chinese zither with bridges.

B．The guzheng became espevially popular in the Tang Dynasty

C．All musicians don’t use the 21-string guzheng.

D．Xu Zhenggao invented the “S-shaped” left string rest himself.

25、I believe in miracles because I’ve seen so many of them. One day, a patient was referred to me who was one hundred and two years old. “There’s a _________ in my upper jaw, ” she said. “I told my own dentist it was nothing, but he _________ I come to see you. ”

Her eighty-year-old son accompanied her. He would _________ to add something, but she stopped him. She wanted to tell everything herself. I found a large cancer that spread over much of the _________ of her mouth. A careful examination later _________ that it was a particularly bad sort of cancer.

During her next appointment, I explained to her the _________ of the problem. She clasped my hand in hers and said, “I know you’re worried about me, but I’m just _________. ”

I thought otherwise. After considerable _________ on my part, and kindness on her part because she wanted to please me, she agreed to have me refer her to a cancer surgeon. She saw him, but as I expected, _________ treatment.

About six months later she returned to my office, still energetic and __________.

“How are you?” I asked.

“I’m just fine, honey, ”she responded in high spirits. “When can I get started on fixing my dentures (假牙)?”

Surprised to see her at all, I answered __________, “Let me take a look in your mouth and we’ll see about it. ”

I couldn’t believe my eyes. The cancer that had covered nearly the entire roof of her mouth was gone—only one small area of redness __________.

I had read of such things happening, but had __________ seen them with my own eyes. That was my first miracle. Since then I’ve seen many others, because they keep getting easier to see.
