书法的人文精神与价值取向书法艺术是一种饱含人文精神的艺术,古人对书法的人文精神多有论述。
柳公权曰:“心正则笔正。
”苏轼说:“古文论书者,兼论其平生。
苟非其人,虽工不贵也。
”明末项穆在《书法雅言》中说:“论书如论相,观书如观人。
”古往今,强调书家的人格地位,书品即人品的人格主义的评价方法长期影响着书坛。
书法作为一门独立的艺术,与其他艺术一样,各自有属于自己的美学内函与价值,它不需要嫁接或附属于非原生态的环境生存。
但是,书法是一种标榜的艺术,书法伤口在彰显艺术魅力的同时,书法家的人格、学识等因素也会凸现出。
所以说书法是一种人文的艺术、人格的艺术也未免不可。
世上没有纯粹的艺术,尤其是书法这门必须承载汉字,并通过汉字以表达事项和情感的艺术。
那么,书家的作品,即使是书写他人原创的作品,首先也是经过书家的人格认可,且注入了自己饱满的情感后才书写出的,每幅作品都无疑会携刻上自己的人格烙印。
艺术家提供的产品必须能满足人们的精神需要,这就是艺术家的良知与社会责任。
艺术家为了能生产合格的产品,必须从精神的、道义的、物质的、社会的、生活的多个方面进行投入、筛选、填充、调试,甚至是反复地加工提炼,艺术的修炼必须是人格的修炼和人文领域诸多学科的学识与涵养。
作为书家,恪守做人的原则,充分把握作品的思想与艺术性,这是必须要做到的。
人文精神是人文知识分子应有的一种品格,一种情怀,是这个阶层的精神特征。
中国有传统文化所坚持的以社会为本位,以仁爱为中心,以修身、养心、齐家、治国、平天下为目的人文精神;西方有文艺复兴时期的以个性解放为目的,以自由、平等、博爱为口号的人文精神。
由此看,人文当是一种精神追求,是一种价值取向或者思维方式。
甘肃省天水一中2014届高三下学期第六次模拟考试英语试题第一部分:阅读理解(共两节,满分40分)第一节(共15小题,每小题2分,满分30分)AEvery year holidays Broughton teams up with Sopraviva Trekking to offer twelve days of unforgettable adventure in a tropical rain forest.Depending on where this year’s rain forest adventure is located, you may be going to Borneo, Malaysia ,Indonesia, or even to the greatest rain forest of them all, the mighty Amazonian forest.You will fly with your fellow adventurers to one of our special base camps at the edge of the forest, where you will be given five days of survival training ,and talks on the local wildlife by trained and experienced experts.You will also go on walks which take you deeper and deeper under the forest canopy until on your final night you camp out in the rain forest itself.Then you transfer by bus into the forest itself.If you go on one of the Asian holidays, you will have to walk the final miles to the camp site itself, to avoid disturbing the local ecology.All of the Sopraviva sites have been carefully built to conform with the latest regulations, and to cause the minimal amount of disturbance to the local wildlife.From the camp ,you will go on daily walking tours to experience for yourself the beauty and diversity of the forests, and plants and vegetation that can be found nowhere else on the planet.Remember that these adventure holidays take you deep into the wilderness ,and they are not suitable for families with young children or for anyone who is not physically able to meet the demands of this kind of adventure.Also remember that in order to preserve the delicate ecological system that you will be walking through ,no more than two dozen guests can stay at any camp at one time, so if you want to go on one of these very special holidays ,you will need to book early!1.If you want to go on the camp ,you will first have to .A.attend talks on the local wildlife B.have survival training C.walk the final five miles D.book beforehand2.What does the organizer of the camp mainly stress?A.Disturbing the local ecology.B.Preserving the forest environment.C.Private possessions and possible dangers.D.The survival training 3.Go on daily walking tours and you’ll enjoy .A.the wilderness B.the Amazonian forestC.the Asian forest D.the forest canopyB“Long time no see” is a very interesting sentence.When I first read this senten ce from an American friend’s email,I laughed.I thought it was a perfectexample of Chinglish.Obviously,it is a word-by-word literal translation of the Chinese greetings with a ruled English grammar and structure! Later on,my friend told me that it is a standard American greeting.I was too thrilled to believe her.Her words could not convince me at all.So I did a research on Google.com.To my surprise,there are over 60 thousand web pages containing “Long time no see.” This sentence has been widely used in emails,letters,newspapers,movies,books,or any other possible places.Though it is sort of informal,it is part of the language that Americans use daily.Ironically,if you type this phrase in Microsoft Word,the software will tell you that the grammar needs to be corrected.Nobody knows the origin of this Chinglish sentence.Some people believe that it came from Charlie Chan’s movies.In the 1930s,Hollywood moviemakers successfully created a world wide famous Chinese detective named “Charlie Chan” on wide screens.Detective Chan likes to teach Americans some Chinese wisdom by quoting Confucius.“Long time no see” was his trademark.Soon after Charlie Chan,“Long time no see” became a popular phrase in the real world with thanks to the popularity of these movies.Some scholars refer to America as a huge pot of stew.All kinds of culture are mixed in the stew together,and they change the color and taste of each other.American Chinese,though a minority ethnic(少数民族的成员) group in the United States,is also contributing some changes to the stew! Language is usually the first thing to be influenced in the mixed stew.You can have some other examples than adoptions from Chinese,such as pizza from Italian,susi from Japanese,and déjà vu from French etc.There is a long list! Americans do not just simply borrow something from others.They will modify it and make it their own,so you would not be surprised to find a tofu and peanut butter hamburger in a restaurant,or to buy a bottle of iced Chinese green tea with honey in a grocery store.Since Americans appreciate Chinese culture more and more nowadays,I believe more Chinese words will become American English in the future.In this way the American stew keeps adding richness and flavor.4.The writer himself felt surprised at ______.A.the Ching lish expression “Long time no see”B.“Long time no see” used as standard American EnglishC.so many literal translation of the expressions used in AmericaD.finding out Americans use the expression every day5.The word “stew” in the 4th paragraph probably means ______.A.mixture literature B.Confucius’ wordsC.a kind of cooked dish D.American changing cultures 6.According to the passage,it can be inferred that ______.A.detectives translate the phrase “Long time no see”B.Holly wood made “Long time no see” popularC.the huge pot of stew greatly affects all kinds of languagesD.cultures can be changed in the huge pot of stew7.The main idea of the passage is that ______.A.some Chinese expressions are introduced into EnglishB.you’ll not be surprised at a tofu in a restaurant in AmericaC.some American expressions can be used in ChinaD.American English keep being enriched from different culturesCKids will often ignore your requests for them to shut off the TV, start their chores(杂事),or do their homework as a way to avoid following your directions. Before you know it, you’ve started to sound like a broken record as you repeatedly ask them to do their assignments, clean their room, or take out the trash. Rather than saying “Do your chores now.”you’ll be more effective if you set a target time for when the chores have to be completed. So instead of arguing about starting chores, just say, “If chores aren’t done by 4 pm, here are the consequences.”Then it’s up to your child to complete the chores. Put the ball back in their court. Don’t argue or fight with them, just say, “That’s the way it’s going to be.” It shouldn’t be punitive(惩罚性的)as much as it should be persuasive. “If your chores aren’t done by 4 pm, then no video game t ime until chores are done. And if finishing those chores runs into homework time, that’s going to be your loss.” On the other hand, when dealing with homework, keep it very simple. Have a time when homework starts, and at that time, all electronics go off and do not go back on until you see that their homework is done. If your kids say they have no homework, then they should use that time to study or read. Either way, there should be a time set aside when the electronics are off.When a kid wears his iPod o r headphones when you’re trying to talk to him, make no bones about it;he is not ignoring you, he is disrespecting you. At that point, everything else should stop until he takes the earplugs out of his ears. Don’t try to communicate with him when he’s wear ing headphones — even if he tells you he can hear you. Wearing them while you’re talking to him is a sign of disrespect. Parents should be very tough about this kind of thing. Remember, mutual respect becomes more important as children mature.8.When the kid is doing his homework, parents ________.A.should provide him with a good learning environmentB.can do whatever they like C.can stay aside watching TVD.must switch off the power9.Parents will be able to deal with their children more effectively if they ________.A.avoid direct ways of punishmentB.make them do things at their requestC.argue and fight with their childrenD.allow their children to behave in their own way10.It can be inferred from the passage that ________.A.parents should take off his headphones when trying to have a talk with their childB.it will make no difference that a kid is wearing his earplugs while talking to his parentsC.parents shouldn’t give in to their kid when he shows no sign of respect D.kids’ purposely talkin g to their parents with iPod gives them a sense of power and control11.The main idea of the passage is ________.A.that respecting each other is more important than anything elseB.how kids behave to ignore and disrespect their parentsC.that children should make choices and decisions on their ownD.how parents can deal with their kids’ behavior effectivelyDTracey Hermanstorfer's heart stopped beating and her son Coltyn appeared lifeless after the Caesarean(剖腹产术)section on Christmas Eve. However a few minutes after he was born, both began breathing again. Dr Stephanie Martin told Good Morning America she could not explain how the pair survived. Mrs Hermanstorfer and her husband Mike told the American television show that their baby was now healthy and that they were doing “good” following the drama at Colorado Springs Memorial Hospital.The couple, who already had two children, had to go into the hospital seven weeks earlier than planned. Her husband, 37, said his wife was tired after receiving an epidural(硬脑膜外麻醉)during the labour(分娩)but after closing her eyes, she “wasn't waking up”.She stopped breathing and she is believed to have suffered a heart attack before her heart stopped beating entirely.Dr Martin said she was called in and that the outlook was grim since in most situations like this,“despite the best efforts of the team”, the mother was often unable to be revived. In that case doctors then tried to focus on delivering the baby but when he was born he was “completely lifeless”.Mr. Hermanstorfer told the Associated Press news agency,“I had everything in the world taken from me, and in an hour and a half I had everything given to me.”Dr Martin said she did not have a “great explanation” for why Mrs Hermanstorfer's heartbeat returned. “Somewhere between four and five minutes she had been without heart rate and had stopped breathing a minute or two prior to her heart stopping,”she said. The doctors were then able to bring the baby back to life, and the mother was alive after that.Despite tests, she said doctors were still not sure about what had happened. However Mrs Hermanstorfer and her husband Mike have said they believed it was down to a miracle. She said:“I got a second chance in life.”12.What might have happened to Tracey Hermanstorfer just before her heart stopped beating?A.She became unconscious. B.She took a nap.C.She had a bad headache. D.She suffered a heart attack.13.Which of the following is the correct order of what happened to Tracey Hermanstorfer?a.suffering a heart attack b.stopping heart beating entirelyc.stopping breathing d.coming back to lifee.receiving an epiduralf.producing a babyA.a c f d b e B.f c a d b e C.e a c b f d D. e a b c f d 14.What feelings did Mr. Hermanstorfer experience during the incident?A. Sad and delighted. B.Disappointed and depressed.C. Sad and angry.D. Touched and regrettable.15.Which of the following words best expresses Dr Martin's attitude towards Tracey Hermanstorfer's coming back to life?A. Shocked.B. Puzzled. C.Normal. D. Curious.第二节根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

ADavid Beckham was born on 2nd May, 1975, in the suburbs of London, at a place called Leytonstone. When he was a young boy, his greatest passion was football. He played it whenever he had the chance. Sometimes he would go and watch a game with his friends. When David Beckham was 12 years old, he won the Bobby Charlton Soccer Skill award. This was an important step forward for this young boy, and it led to him going for a visit to a football training camp in Spain. As a boy at secondary school he played for the schools of Essex and also for his county team.On 8th July, 1991, he became a trainee with Manchester United. This meant that he could practice football as much as he wanted to and play for the highly successful Manchester United Youth Cup team and Under- 21 team. On 2nd April, 1995, he played his first major football league game against Leeds United. During 1995 and 1996, David became a regular member of the team and Manchester United won in both seasons , with David scoring many goals.His goals made him a household name. In the first game of the 1997/7 season, he scored an amazing goal from beyond the halfway line. Seeing the goalkeeper a little way out of his goal, David sent the ball over the goalkeepers head and into the goal. It was a wonderful goal and Beckham became famous overnight.

On my second day I got on the first bus that passed, rode on it for several stops, then got off and walked on. The first two hours passed pleasantly enough, then I decided to turn back to my hotel for lunch. After walking about for some time, I decided I had better ask the way. The trouble was that the only word I knew of the language was the name of the street in which I lived, and even that I pronounced badly. I stopped to ask a newspaper-seller. He handed me a paper. I shook my head and repeated the name of the street and he put the paper into my hands. I had to give him some money and went on my way. The next person I asked was a policeman. He listened to me carefully, nodded and gently took me by the arm. There was a strange look in his eyes as hepointed left and right and left again. I nodded politely and began walking in the direction he pointed.About an hour passed and I noticed that the houses were getting fewer and fewer and green fields were appearing on either side of me. I had come all the way into the countryside. The only thing left for me to do was find the nearest railway station.5.

That is slow but could be the result of the already high number of collegeInternet users.About 88 percent of American college students own a computer, and more than half have broadband(宽带)connections. Furthermore, 67 percent own cell phones and 36 percent use their mobile devices to visit the Internet. Study findings are that 42 percent go online mainly to communicate socially, and 72 percent of college students check emails at least once a day, with 66 percent using at least two email addresses.The most popular online social activity is forwarding messages to friends or family, with 37 percent of college students saying they do so. The study also looked beyond the Internet surfing(冲浪)habits and into the buying habits of this group, and found them responsible for more than US $ 210 billion in sales last year alone.College students have learned how to spend their money, with 93 percent saying low prices were important when shopping.The study also showed that 65 percent make loan(贷款)payments; 41 percent of freshmen have a credit card; and 79 percent of seniors have a credit card. A significant number of charges on these credit cards are likely to be for entertainment and leisure expenses.9.

In fact, eye contact is avoided at all time. That's not rudeness—people are just too busy to bother looking.Busy doing what, you ask? Well, they're certainly not using the time for a moment of quiet reflection(沉思).Nor are they reading a book. New technology has replaced quiet habits. Today the only acceptable form of book on the London Underground is an e-book..Apple must earn a fortune from London commuters(乘车上下班的人). Since the launch of the iPhone in 2007, over 40,000-yes, that's 40,000-"apps"(programs downloaded for the iPhone)have been designed.Commuters love them because they are the perfect time-filler. One "app", called iShoot, is a game that features tanks. Another one, Tube Exits, tells passengers where to sit on the train to be closest to the exit of their destination(目的地). ISteam clouds the iPhone screen when you breathe into the microphone. You can then write in the "steam" on your phone screen.For those without an iPhone, another Apple product, the iPod, may be the distraction(消遣)of choice. It's not just teenagers who "plug in" to their music-iPods are a popular way to pass the time for all ages.And if games, e-books and music aren't enough to keep you occupied. Then perhaps you would prefer a film? The development of palm(掌上)DVD technology means many commuters watch their favorite TV show or film on the way to work. With all this distraction, it's amazing that people still remember to get off the train.36. People in London do not make eye contact on the subway because they are busy .A. going to workB. reading booksC. thinking private thoughtsD. playing games, reading e-books, listening to music or watching films37. In Paragraph 4, the underlined word ―them‖ refers to ―‖.A. habitsB. ―apps‖C. iPhonesD. films38. Those who like war games can download to their iPhones.A. iShootB. Tube ExitsC. iSteamD. iPod39. The underlined word "occupied" in the last paragraph probably means .A. delightedB. busyC. amusedD. controlled40. The article tells us that .A. London commuters are unfriendly to strangersB. Apple has earned a lot of money from selling 40,000 appsC. technology is changing the way London commuters spend their traveling timeD. with all the new time-fillers, London commuters often forget to get off the train.BTo err is human. To blame the other guy is even more human.Common sense is not all that common..Why tell the truth when you can come up with a good excuse?These three popular misquotes(戏谑的引语)are meant to be jokes, and yet they tell us a lot about human nature .To err, or to make mistakes, is indeed a part of being human, but it seems that most people don’t want to accept the responsibility for the problem. Perhaps it is the natural thing to do .The original quo te about human nature went like this:‖ To err is human, to forgive, divine(神圣的).‖This saying mirrors an deal people should be forgiving of others’ mistakes. Instead, we tend to do the opposite –find someone else to pass the blame on to. However, taking responsibility for something that went wrong is a making of great maturity.Common sense is what we call clear thought. Having common sense means having a good general plan that will make things work well, and it also means staying with the plan. Commonsense tells you that you take an umbrella out into a rainstorm, but you leave the umbrella home when you hear a weather forecast for sunshine.Common sense does not seem to be common for large organizations, because there are so many things going on that one person cannot be in charge of everything . People say that in a large company,‖the right hand does not know what the left hand is doing.‖And what is wrong with a society that thinks that making up a good excuse is like creating a work of art? One of the common problems with making excuses is that people, especially young people. get the idea that it’s okay not to be totally honest all the time. There is a corollary(直接推论)to that: if good excuse is ―good‖even if it is not honest, then where is the place of the truth?41. According to tile passage, which of following seems the most human?A. To search for truth.B. To achieve one’s idealC. To make fun of others’mistakes.D. To criticize others for one’s own error.42. According to the author, wh at is a sign of a man’s maturity?A. Doing things his own way.B. Bearing responsibility for his mistakes.C. Making as few mistakes as possible.D. Thinking seriously about his wrongdoing.43. Which of the following is N0T based on common sense?A. A man tries to take charge of everything in a large company.B. A student goes out with an umbrella in stormy weather.C. A company’s next move follows a good plan.D. A lawyer acts on fine judgments.44. What is the author’s opinion about a good excuse?A. Making a good excuse is sometimes a better policy.B. Inventing a good excuse needs creative ideas.C. A good excuse is as rewarding as honesty.D. Bitter truth is better than a good excuse.45. What would be the best title for his passage?A. A Mirror of Human NatureB. To Blame or to ForgiveC. A Mark of MaturityD. Truth or Excuse第II卷(非选择题)四、根据下列各句句意和空白之后的汉语提示词,写出对应单词的正确形式,每空只写一词(每词1分,满分10分)46. The house was _______ (围绕)by high walls.47.

My mother told us that we would not be _16_ Christmas gifts because there was not enough money. I felt sad and thought, ―What would I say when the other kids asked what I had 17 ?‖ Just when I started to 18 that there would not be a Christmas that year, three women 19 at our house with gifts for all of us. For me they brought a doll. I felt such a 20 of relief(轻松)that I would no longer have to be embarrassed (尴尬的)when I returned to school. I wasn’t21 . Somebody had thought 22 of me to bring me a gift.Years later, when I stood in the kitchen of my new house, thinking how I wanted to make my 23 Christmas there special and memorable(值得记忆的), I 24 remembered the women’s visit. I decided that I wanted to create that same feeling of 25 for as many children as I could possibly reach.So I 26 a plan and gathered forty people from my company to help. We gathered about 125 orphans (孤儿) at the Christmas party. For every child, we wrapped (包扎)colorful packages filled with toys, clothes, and school supplies, 27 with a child’s name.

Many everyday American expressions are based on colors.Red is a hot color. Americans often use it to express heat. They may say they are red hot about something unfair. When they are red hot they are very angry about something. The small hot tasting peppers found in many Mexican foods are called red hots for their color and their fiery taste. Fast loud music is popular with many people. They may say the music is red hot, especially the kind called Dixieland jazz.Pink is a lighter kind of red. People sometimes say they are in the pick when they are in good health. The expression was first used in America at the beginning of the twentieth century. It probably comes from the fact that many babies are born with a nice pink color that shows that they are in good health.Blue is a cool color. The traditional blues music in the United States is the opposite of red hot music. Blues is slow, sad and soulful. Duke Ellington and his orchestra recorded a famous song –Mood Indigo –about the deep blue color, indigo. In the words of the song ―You ain’t been blue till you’ve had that Mood Indigo.‖ Someone who is blue is very sad.The color green is natural for trees and grass. But it is an unnatural color for humans. A person who has a sick feeling stomach may say she feels a little green. A passenger on a boat who is feeling very sick from high waves may look very green. Sometimes a person may be upset because he does not have something as nice as a friend has, like a fast new car. That person may say he is green with envy. Some people are green with envy because a friend has more dollars or greenbacks. Dollars are called greenbacks because that is the color of the back side of the paper money.The color black is used often in expressions. People describe a day in which everything goes wrong as a black day. The date of a major tragedy is remembered as a black day. A blacklist is illegal now. But at one time, some businesses refused to employ people who were on a blacklist for belonging to unpopular organizations.36.What’s the passage mainly talked about?A.Some American expressions based on colors.B.Colors used in American daily life.C.Different feelings based on different colors.D.Different functions about various colors.37.―In the pink‖ means ―in good health‖ because.A.the face of healthy people is pinkB.pink is lighter kind of red, which stands for bloodC.the newly-born babies are all healthyD.m any babies are born with a nice pink color38.According to Paragraph 3, blue refers to ?A.a famous band B.a pop music formC.a well-known recorded D.a beautiful song39.A person earns a good fame as well as lots of money, so his competitor will probably say .A.I’m red hot about him B.I’m in the pinkC.I’m green with envy D.I have a black day40.According to the passage, which of the following can replace the underlined word? If someone drove after he drank some alcohol, he would get in his blacklist.A.illegal record B.wrong activityC.evil thought D.unpopular organizationBHouseplants clean the air and brighten a room. Occasionally, they drive us mad as we wonder how exactly we managed to kill yet another "unkillable" houseplant. (In that way, they provide great lessons in perseverance as well!) But it looks like there's one more great reason to grow houseplants their presence in your workspace might actually make you smarter.According to a recent study published in The Journal of Environmental Psychology, just having plants in your work space is enough to increase your attention span. An increase in attention span means that we're able to remember more of what we read. To test the hypotheses, the study's authors gave subjects a Reading Span Task, which requires reading sentences aloud, then remembering the last word in each sentence. This requires reading, memorization, and recall abilities, and switching between the three.The researchers had their entire test pool complete Reading Span Tasks to get a baseline reading. Then they moved some of the people to a room with no plants, and others to a room that had four plants around the desk. They were all asked to repeat the Reading Span Tasks, and the people who worked near a plant improved overall, while those without plants stayed roughly the same. Beauty, fresh air, the joy of caring for another living thing — all great reasons to have a few houseplants around. If they help increase attention spans, all the better!41.The study shows that growing houseplants can .A.clean the air B.make the house beautifulC.increase attention spans D.have the joy of caring42.People in the study were asked to .A.read sentences slowly B.recall all the informationC.memorize each sentence correctly D.change between the three abilities43.The underlined word in the second paragraph probably means .A.ideas B.researchC.theories D.experiments44.In the last paragraph, the writer .A.places an advertisement B.comments on the studyC.shows his/her opinion D.gives people a warning45.From the underlined sentence in the first paragraph, we can know______.A. It is illegal to kill a houseplantB. It is a wonder to manage to kill an unkillable houseplantC. We feel guilty for having caused the death of a houseplantD. Driving can make a person madII 卷IV 单词拼写(每空1分,满分10分)1) Her mother is so _______ (虔诚的) that she won’t even watch TV on Sundays.2) It is the _______ (风俗) in Japan to take your shoes off when you go into someone’s house.3) She took a cloth and ________(擦) down the kitchen table.4) No official ________ (允许) has been given for the event to take place.5) Their _______ (日常饮食) chiefly consists of grain and vegetables.6) She ________ (叹息) when she saw the hole in her blouse.7) Do you like ______ (冒险) in your life?8) ________ (漫步) in the street, I caught sight of a tailor’s shop.9) The medicine is ________ (有毒的) if taken in large quantities.10) Two children _______ (淹死) after falling into the river.V课文填空(每空1分,满分10分)At the library Wang Peng was _______ to find that his restaurant served far too little.

They eat one grape for each toll (钟声) to bring good luck for the next 12 months of the new year.In Scotland, fireworks are set off in front of the Edinburgh Castle. Immediately after midnight, people sing Auld Lang Syne. The words are in Scottish and mean “days gone by”. The famous Scottish poet Robert Burns wrote the song.In Brazil, most people wear white clothes on New Year’s Eve to bring good luck for the new year. If they live near a beach, after midnight, people go there, light candles in the sand, throw flowers in the sea and make a wish. They say that the goddess who protects the sea will make their wishes come true.Did you know?The date January 1 was picked by the Roman leader Julius Caesar as the change of the year when he established his own calendar in 46 BC.

After all, nobody has seen a living dinosaur. This book explains how scientists and artists work together to re-create dinosaurs. As scientific discoveries have been made, the models have changed. Scientific tests may one day expose what a dinosaur’s coloring was, but now artists have to use their imagination to determine how these huge creatures looked.Beyond the Solar System by Mary Kay Carson, 128 pages, ages 10-13This book takes readers back to the beginnings of space exploration—thousands of years ago, when people began star observation—and forward to today’s search for planets in distant parts of the Milky Way.

The activities are perfect for cold winter days.Ultimate Bugopedia by Darlyne Murawski and Nancy Honovich, 272 pages, ages 7 and olderIf you’re always on the lookout for butterflies, this book is for you.

Kelly, a policeman, said “He says that there was an evil spell that was cast on him.”Camara, who was in stable condition at St. Barnabas Hospital, was later charged with the murder of Rita Morelli.The 36-year-old woman was getting a degree at Borough of Manhattan Community College as she waited tables at Caffe Buon Gusto on the upper East Side, police said.

It requires you to predict what other road users will do and get ready to react to something unexpected. When alcohol is consumed, it enters your bloodstream and acts as a depressant (抑制药), damaging eyesight, judgment and co-ordination(协调), slowing down reaction time and greatly increasing the risk of accidents. Even below the drink driving limit, driving will be affected.Alcohol may take a few minutes to be absorbed into the bloodstream and start action on the brain. Absorption rate is increased when drinking on an empty stomach or when consuming drinks mixed with fruit juice. To get rid of alcohol from the body is a very slow process and it is not possible to speed it up with any measures like taking a shower or having a cup of tea or coffee.The present Road Traffic Ordinance states clearly that the limit of alcohol concentration is:● 50 milligrams of alcohol per 100ml of blood; or● 22 micrograms of alcohol per 100ml of breath; or● 67 milligrams of alcohol per 100ml of urine (尿液).Drivers who cause traffic accidents, or who commit a moving traffic offence or are being suspected of drink driving will be tested.Any drive found drinking beyond the limit will be charged. The driver declared guilty may be fined a maximum of HK $25,000 and be sentenced to up to 3 years in prison and punished for 10 driving-offence points; or temporarily banned from driving.The same punishment applies to failing to provide specimens (样本) far breath, blood or urine tests without good excuse.Drink driving is a criminal offence. Be a responsible driver, think before you drink. For the safety of yourself and other road users, never drive after consuming alcohol.12. The first paragraph is mainly about ________.A. the introduction of driving skillsB. the damage of drinking to your bodyC. the effect of drinking on drivingD. the process of alcohol being absorbed13.

Having a cup of tea helps to get rid of alcohol from the body.D. 50 milligrams of alcohol per 100ml of breath is below the drink limit.15. A drive suspected of drink driving ________.A. should provide specimens for testingB. will be forbidden to drive for 3yearsC. will be punished for 10 driving-offence pointsD. should pay a maximum fine of HK $25,000第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,共10分)根据短文内容,从短文后的七个选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。
