AInside the Rain RoomThe Rain Room has arrived and local art lovers are taking notice. Is it worth the wait? Yes, I assure you it is. Once inside, visitors find a long, dark room with a high ceiling. A single bright light shines through heavy rain falling around visitors. The mist. The damp air. The noise. It feels like a mighty storm is pouring down. But the storm is inside. And visitors aren’t getting wet. Instead, visitors wander in awe, admiring the rain and the artists who created it.The Rain Room was created to highlight the connection between humans, nature and technology. With a tracking system that senses movement and stops the rain wherever visitors move, it does just that. Light and sound produce an experience that feels both natural and foreign. The exhibit is moving on to Atlanta next month. I urge you to visit before then. It’s time to experience the Rain Room for yourself!Welcome to the Rain Room• The Rain Room featur es falling water.

Built over 2,200 years ago in what is now Sichuan Province in Southwest China, this amazing engineering achievement is stillused today to irrigate over 6,000 square kilometres of farmland, take away floodwater and provide water for 50 cities m the province.In ancient times, the region in which Dujiangyan now stands suffered from regular floods caused by overflow from the Minjiang River. To help the victims of the flooding, Li Bing, the region's governor, together with his son, decided to find a solution. They studied the problem and discovered that the river most often overflowed when winter snow at the top of the nearby Mount Yulei began to melt as the weather warmed.The simplest fix was to build a dam, but this would have ruined the Minjiang River. So instead Li designed a series of channels built at different levels along Mount Yulei that would take away the floodwater while leaving the river flowing naturally. Better still, the extra water could be directed to the dry Chengdu Plain, making it suitable for farming.Cutting the channels through the hard rock of Mount Yulei was a remarkable accomplishment as it was done long before the invention gunpowder and explosives. £1 Bing found another solution. He used a combination of fire and water to heat and cool the rocks until they cracked and could be removed. After eight years of work, the 20-metre-wide canals had been carved through the mountain.Once the system was finished, no more floods occurred and the people were able to live peacefully and affluently. Today, Dujiangyan is admired by scientists from around the world because of one feature. Unlike modem dams where the water is blocked with a huge wall, Dujiangyan still lets water flow through the Minjiang River naturally, enabling ecosystems and fish populations to exist in harmony.24. What are the benefits of Dujiangyan according to the first paragraph?A. Reducing flooding and watering farmland.B. Protecting the mountain and reducing flooding.C. Watering farmland and improving water quality.D. Drying the river and supplying cities with water.25. What was the main cause of the Minjiang Rivers flooding?A. Heavy rains.B. Melting snow.C. Low river banks.D. Steep mountains.26. How was Li Bing able to break through the rocks of Mount Yulei?A. By using gunpowder.B. By flooding the rocks with water.C. By applying a heating and cooling technique.D. By breaking the rocks with hammers and spades.27. Why is Dujiangyan greatly admired by scientists today?A. It preserves much of the natural river life.B. It took very little time to complete the project.C. The building tech niques used were very modem.D. It has raised the living standards of the local people.CBill Gates recently predicted that online learning will make place-based colleges less significant, and five years from now, students will be able to find the best lectures in the world online.I applaud Mr. Gates. But what’s taking us so long?As early as 1997, MIT (麻省理工)decided to post videos of all university lectures online, for free, for all people. But today, how many students have you met who mastered advanced mathematics or nuclear physics from an MIT online video? Unfortunately, the answer is not many.The problem is the poor quality of online education websites and the experience they provide to students. Those who go to the MIT website and watch courses online are surely very smart people, but ifs not like playing a video game such as World of Warcraft. Only the most ardent students, those who are highly motivated, will devote themselves to studying these boring online videos.The real question is why we aren’t spending more to develop better online education platforms. Where is the Avatar of education? Think about this. The market for Hollywood films per year is worth around 30 billion USD. Education in the world is a trillion-dollar-a-year market, hundreds of times bigger than Hollywood movies. Yet the most expensive digital learning system ever built cost well under 100 million dollars.Bill Gates’ prediction is going to happen. There is no doubt about it. But it will only happen when we create high level educational content and experiences t hat engage and excite more than has ever been possible in the real world.28. What has Bill Gates forecast about online learning?A. It will concentrate on physics lectures.B. It will completely replace real universities.C. It will help to make universities more successful.D. It will play an increasingly important role in education.29. What does the underlined word “ardent” in Paragraph3 mean?.A. Creative.B. Enthusiastic.C. Well-behaved.D. Experienced.30. According to the author, what is holding back the popularity of online learning?A. The lack of lectures available online.B. The high cost of access to the websites.C. The low standard of educational websites.D. The competition with online computer games.31. Why does the author mention Hollywood?A. To show that Hollywood produces many successful movies.B. To prove that education is more profitable than entertainment.C. To argue that movie directors should produce educational content.D. To urge that more money be spent developing educational websites.DPersuasion is the art of convincing someone to agree with you. According to the ancient Greeks, there are three basic tools of persuasion : ethos, pathos, and logos.Ethos is a speakers way of convincing the audience that she is trustworthy, honest and reliable. One common way a speaker can develop ethos is by explaining how much experience or education she has in the field. After all, you’re more likely to listen to advice about how to take care of your teeth from a dentist than a fireman. A speaker can also create ethos by convincing the audience that she is a good person. If an audience cannot trust you, you will not be able to persuade them.Pathos is a speaker’s way of connecting with an audienc e’s emotions. For example, a politician who is trying to convince an audience to vote for him might say that he alone can save the country from a terrible war. These words are intended to fill the audience with fear, thus making them support him. Similarly, an animal charity might show an audience pictures of injured dogs and cats, to make the viewers feel pity. If the audience feels bad for the animals, they will be more likely todonate money.Logos is the use of facts, statistics, or other evidence to support your argument. An audience will be more likely to believe you if you have convincing data to back up your claims. Presenting this evidence is much more persuasive than simply saying “believe me”.Although ethos, pathos, and logos all have their strengths, they are often most effective when used together. Indeed, most speakers use a combination of ethos, pathos, and logos to persuade their audiences. So, the next time you listen to a speech, watch a commercial, or listen to a friend try to convince you to lend him some money, be on the lookout for these ancient Greek tools of persuasion.32. Why does the author say persuasion is an art?A. They both entertain the audience.B. They both require great skill to achieve.C. They both demand full attention from the audience.D. They were both common topics of ancient Greek writers.33. How is a speaker able to show her ethos to the audience?A. By expressing her sympathy with the audience.B. By telling the audience about her personal preference.C. By using beautiful language to make her statements attractive.D. By showing her knowledge and experience relating to the topic. .34. What can we learn about the three aspects of persuasion?A. Ethos is the most important aspect of persuasion.B. Each aspect has a different effect on the audience.C. Honesty is the key to making your arguments believable.D. Political leaders mostly use pathos to persuade theiraudience.35. An advertisement for washing powder which claims that M scientific tests show that our powd er kills 95% of all bacteria” is mainly using _________.A. ethosB. pathosC. logosD. a combination of all three第二节(共5小题,每小题2分,满分10分)根据短文内容,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。

students watch a video of a sunset as part of a physics lesson on motion.“I asked them：‘So what’s moving？And why？’”Blackwell says.Some thought the sun was moving；others knew that a sunset is the result of the Earth spinning around on its axis.“Usually，my biggest challenge is trying to keep them patient，”she says.“They just have so many burning questions.”“Every day，we meet new information，”says Charan Ranganath，a psychologist.Ranganath was curious to know why we keep some information and forget other things.So he got 19 volunteers and asked them to review more than 100 questions.When the participants’ curiosity was aroused，the parts of their brains that regulate pleasure and reward lit up.Curious minds also showed increased activity in the brain，which is involved in the creation of memories.“Curious brains are better at learning not only about the subject at hand but also dull information.This is a phenomenon teachers can use in the classroom.”says Evie Malaia，a professor.“Say a kid wants to be an astronaut，”she says.“Well，how do you link that goal with learning multiplication tables(乘法表)？”“A teacher may choose to ask her class an interesting problem that involves space exploration，”Malaia says.Students may remember the answer to the problem，but they’ll also remember how they found the answer through multiplication.What Ranganath wants to know most is why some people seem naturally more curious than others.Lots of factors，including stress，aging and certain drugs can affect dopamine(多巴胺) processing in the brain.“If we could figure these things out，we could help those who may just seem bored，”Ranganath says.Blackwell says she doesn’t have to deal with that problem too often.She says her students love exploring the mysterious unknowns in science：What happens when a car crashes？How do rainbows work?“I tell my kids there’s no dumb questions，”Blackwell says.“That’s science：asking questions and seeking answers.”1．What challenge did Blackwell have in class?A．The students were often burnt by accident.B．The students were asking too many questions.C．The students couldn’t concentrate in her class.D．The students couldn’t answer questions gently.2．If we are curious，we .A．will desire to be rewardedB．may forget undesirable things more easilyC．may memorize something betterD．will have more energy to do outdoor activities3．Malaia gave the example of a kid in Paragraph 4 to prove .A．multiplication tables are difficult to learnB．math is the basis knowledge for space explorationC．becoming an astronaut is a dream of many kidsD．curiosity also helps us learn boring things4．What do the underlined words “that problem”refer to?A．Students get bored with learning.B．Students ask too many foolish questions.C．Students want to explore the mysteries of science.D．Students take drugs to produce dopamine.BA poor set of curtains may not just mean you wake up too early—they could also make you fat.Sleeping in a room with too much light has been linked to an increased risk of piling on the pounds，a study shows.Greater exposure to light at night raised both body mass index and waist size in more than 113,000 women taking part in the British study.The study followed the women for 40 years to identify root causes of breast cancer.Obesity is a known risk factor for the disease.“The associations we saw in our study between light exposure at night and obesity are very interesting.We cannot yet tell at this stage what the reason for the associations is，but the results open up an interesting direction for research，”said Prof.Anthony Swerdlow，from the Institute of Cancer Research.“One possible explanation is that the light is interrupting the body clock，which stems from our evolutionary past(进化历程)．We were active when it was light in the day and restful when it was dark at night.”Other research has found the effect of night-time lighting on the body may contribute to unhappy feelings.But it’s too early to suggest that sleeping in the dark will help prevent obesity，a known risk factor for breast cancer.The findings are reported in the American Journal ofEpidemiology.Previous research has drawn similar conclusions.A team at Ohio State University examined how night-time light affects weight，body fat and glucose intolerance(葡萄糖过敏) in mice.They found that continuing exposure to even a little night-time
