entire floor of their large house in London with all sorts of animals,”said Anne Lundin,a retired professor for the UW-Madison School of Library Studies.“As an adult,she was a frustrated botanical illustrator and scientist.That field was not open to her because she was female,”Lundin said.Potter was urged to turn the charming illustrations and stories she wrote in letters to children into boos.She wrote 23 boos in all—a body of wor that has inspired plays,ballets,films and an astonishing amount of merchandise.“Peter Rabbit is probably the most famous children’s boo in the world,which was published 113 years ago and has really stood the test of time.It’s been translated into 36 languages.The parents and grandparents will share it with the net generation,”said Lundin.Potter also

the nine teaching assistants (TAs) that had helped them finish the challenging course for the past five months was not a “she”but an “it”—an intelligent robot!Watson is the brainchild of Asho Goel,who teaches the popular online course.The Professor of Computer and Cognitive Science in the School of Interactive Computing came up with the ideaas a way to deal with the number of questions posed by students in the online forums(论坛).According to Goel,every time the course is offered,the 300 or so students that enroll post over 10,000 questions.The questions are often repetitive.This led Goel to wonder if a smart robot would handle the questions which require standard responses—things lie dates when assignments are due.Having wored with IBM’s Watson technology platform in the past,the professor new it would be ideal for his artificial TAJill Watson.The artificial intelligence system that uses natural language processing and machine learning to analye large amounts of data has even been cleverer than human competitors on the television show.It would therefore easily be able to handle routine questions that required little “thining”.The professor and his team of graduate students began by populating Jill’s memory with 40,000 questions and answers from past terms.Then came the testing stage.At first,Jill was not very good and often gave strange answers.It often got stuc on certain eywords.By the end of the semester,Jill had attained enough nowledge and sills to participate in forums without any management from Goel,or the other assistants.28.What surprised the students who tae the online course?A.The course was interesting but challenging.B.A teaching assistant wasn’t a real person.C.Jill Watson is a hard-woring TA.D.They all failed to pass their course.29.What’s the best title for the tet?A.A Robot of Georgia gives an online courseB.Asho Goel Came up with the Idea of Jill WatsonC.Jill Watson—One of the Nine Teaching AssistantsD.Georgia Tech’s Teaching Assistant Turn Out to Be a Robot30.Why did Goel decide to invent a smart robot?A.A number of students too his online course.B.A smart robot is cleverer than a human being.C.Too many similar questions are to be dealt with.D.A smart robot could be easily controlled by him.31.What can we infer from the tet?A.Students should deal with routine questions.B.Jill is mainly in charge of posting surprising news.C.The TAs give students homewor at a certain time.D.Goel is satisfied with Jill’s present performance.DFidel Castro was born at his father’s farm on August 13,1926.His father,Angel Castro,was a migrant to Cuba from Galicia,Northwest Spain.He had become financially successful by growing sugarcane at Las Manacas farm in Birán,Oriente Province.Aged si,Castro was sent to live with his teacher in

I tried to wake up my wife by ringing the door-bell, but she was fast asleep, so I got a ladder from the shed in the garden, put it against the wall, and began climbing towards the bedroom window. I was almost there when a sarcastic voice below said, “I don’t think the windows need cleaning at this time of the night.” I looked down and nearly fell off the ladder when I saw a policeman. I immediately regretted acting in th e way I did, but I said, “I enjoy cleaning windows at night.”“So do I,” answered the policeman in the same tone. “Excuse my interrupting you. I hate to interrupt a man when he’s busy working, but would you mind coming with me to the station?”“Well, I’d prefer to stay here,” I said. “You see, I’ve forgotten my key.”“Your what?” he called.“My key,” I shouted.Fortunately, the shouting woke up my wife who opened the window just as the policeman had started to climb towards me.41.

He was the only boy among great many girl cousins. That was enough to make him important, but his father loved him especially, because he knew his son was going to be an artist. Pablo knew the word for pencil even before he could say Mamma and Papa. When he was small he spent hours by himself making delightful little drawings of animals and people. If his mother sent him out to play in the square, he went on drawing in the dust under the trees. One of his favorite models was his younger sister, Lola.Don Jose Ruiz, Pablo’s father, was director of the museum at Malaga in southern Spain. He earned only a small salary, but there was not much work to do and he was able to practice his hobby, which was painting pigeons. Don Jose loved pigeons very much. He painted them dead or alive in ones and twos and in dozens. Sometimes he painted them on paper, cut them out and stuck them on to canvas; sometimes he stuck real feathers on to his pictures. He knew a great deal about the technique of painting and he taught it all to Pablo.46.

Drawing pigeons was Don Jose’s ______.A workB leisure-time activityC regular businessD way to earn a livingPassage ThreeYou have been badly injured in a car accident. It is necessary to give you a blood transfusion.However, special care must be taken in selecting new blood for you. If the blood is too different from your own, the transfusion could kill you.There are four basic types of blood: A, B, AB, and O. A simple test can show a person’s blood type. Everybody is born with one of these four types of blood. Blood type, like hair color and height, is inherited from parents.Because of substances contained in each type, the four groups must be transfused carefully. Basically, A and B cannot be mixed. A and B cannot receive AB, but AB may receive A or B. O can be given to any other group, and, hence, it is often called the universal giver. For the opposite reason, AB is sometimes called the universal receiver. However, because so many reactions can happen in transfusions, patients usually receive salt or plasma until their blood can be matched as exactly as possible in the blood bank of a hospital. In this way, it is possible to avoid any bad reactions to the transfusion.There is a relationship between your blood type and your nationality. Among Europeans and people of European ancestry, about 42 percent have type A while 45 percent have type O. The rarest is type AB. Other races have different percentages. For example, some American Indian groups have nearly 100 percent type O.51. A good title for this selection is ______.A Getting Blood and PlasmaB Special Blood ColorsC Universal Giver and ReceiverD Human Blood Types52. The author suggests that the rarest blood type be _____ among Europeans.A AB BC ABD O53. People with type A blood can receive _______.A ABB BC OD all the above54. If you need a transfusion, the best and safest blood for you is _____.A type AB type ABC exactly the same type as yoursD a mixture of salt, plasma, and type O55. According to the passage, a person’s blood type is decided by _______.A his parentsB his nationalityC his hair colorD his heightPassage FourWomen’s fashions tend to change more rapidly than men’s. In the early 1900s all women wore their skirts down to the ankle. Today, skirt length varies from floor-length to ten inches above the knee. Women’s shores have also gone through all sorts of changes in the last seventy years. For example, boots for women were very common at the beginning of this century. Then, several yearslater, they were not considered fashionable. Today they are back in style again in all colors, lengths and materials. In fact, today’s women can wear all types of clothes—even T-shirts and shorts on almost any occasion. While there are some rapid changes in women’s clothing which remained pretty much the same until a couple of years ago, most men still wear the traditional suit, jacket, shirt and tie although there have been more changes about their clothing in color, pattern and variety than in the past.56. Nowadays women wear ______.A longer skirts than those women used to wear at the beginning of the this centuryB both longer skirts and short skirtsC shorter skirtsD the same as in the early 1900s57. Today, women think that long boots are ______.A fashionableB unfashionableC more fit than short onesD acceptable58. Which of the following statements is true according to the passage?A Great changes have taken place in men’s clothing recently.B Men’s clothing has not changed much.C Men’s fashion changed as rapidly as women’s.D Men never wear jackets and ties at all.59. Men’s clothes are more colorful than _____.A women’sB they used to beC traditional shirtsD ties60. What does the author imply by “today’s women can wear all types of clothes”?A Women were not allowed to wear clothes in the old days.B Women were not allowed to wear T-shirts and shorts in the old days.C Women have a wider choice of clothes now.D Women can wear men’s clothes now.IV. Translation61.Finally, aw method was discovered of producing artificial rubber which is inmany ways superior and in some ways inferior （劣的）to natural rubber.Artificial rubber is produced in factories by a complicated chemical process. It isusually cheaper than natural rubber.62．Because noise is unavoidable in a complex, industrial society, we areconstantly responding in the same ways that we would respond to danger.63．This meant that the value of currencies（货币）would now be determinedby the markets instead of individual governments.64．…if enough warning is given, steps can be taken to limit the destruction andsuffering that following a bad EL Nino.V. WritingDirections: For this part, you are supposed to write a letter in about 100-120 words based on the following situation. Remember to write it clearly.Outline:1．1．小汽车正在进入中国家庭2．2．家用汽车的利和弊。

Choose one best answer and blacken the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet.Passage OneIt must have been about two in the morning when I returned home. I tried to wake up my wife by ringing the door-bell, but she was fast asleep, so I got a ladder from the shed in the garden, put it against the wall, and began climbing towards the bedroom window. I was almost there when a sarcastic voice below said, “I don’t think the windows need cleaning at this time of the night.” I looked down and nearly fell off the ladder when I saw a policeman. I immediately regretted acting in the way I did, but I sai d, “I enjoy cleaning windows at night.”“So do I,” answered the policeman in the same tone. “Excuse my interrupting you. I hate to interrupt a man when he’s busy working, but would you mind coming with me to the station?”“Well, I’d prefer to stay here,”I said. “You see, I’ve forgotten my key.”“Your what?” he called.“My key,” I shouted.Fortunately, the shouting woke up my wife who opened the window just as the policeman had started to climb towards me.41.

He was the only boy among great many girl cousins. That was enough to make him important, but his father loved him especially, because he knew his son was going to be an artist. Pablo knew the word for pencil even before he could say Mamma and Papa. When he was small he spent hours by himself making delightful little drawings of animals and people. If his mother sent him out to play in the square, he went on drawing in the dust under the trees. One of his favorite models was his younger sister, Lola.Don Jose Ruiz, Pablo’s father, was director of the museum at Malaga in southern Spain. He earned only a small salary, but there was not much work to do and he was able to practice his hobby, which was painting pigeons. Don Jose loved pigeons very much. He painted them dead or alive in ones and twos and in dozens. Sometimes he painted them on paper, cut them out and stuck them on to canvas; sometimes he stuck real feathers on to his pictures. He knew a great deal about the technique of painting and he taught it all to Pablo.46. Picasso’s father loved him particularly, because ______.A he was their only childB he was a boyC he was going to be importantD he was going to be a painter47.

Pablo’s father painted a lot because ______.A he had plenty of timeB he did not have much moneyC he looked after the museumD he liked pigeons50. Drawing pigeons was Don Jose’s ______.A workB leisure-time activityC regular businessD way to earn a livingPassage ThreeYou have been badly injured in a car accident. It is necessary to give you a blood transfusion. However, special care must be taken in selecting new blood for you. If the blood is too different from your own, the transfusion could kill you.There are four basic types of blood: A, B, AB, and O. A simple test can show a person’s blood type. Everybody is born with one of these four types of blood. Blood type, like hair color and height, is inherited from parents.Because of substances contained in each type, the four groups must be transfused carefully. Basically, A and B cannot be mixed. A and B cannot receive AB, but AB may receive A or B. O can be given to any other group, and, hence, it is often called the universal giver. For the opposite reason, AB is sometimes called the universal receiver. However, because so many reactions can happen in transfusions, patients usually receive salt or plasma until their blood can be matched as exactly as possible in the blood bank of a hospital. In this way, it is possible to avoid any bad reactions to the transfusion.There is a relationship between your blood type and your nationality. Among Europeans and people of European ancestry, about 42 percent have type A while 45 percent have type O. The rarest is type AB. Other races have different percentages. For example, some American Indian groups have nearly 100 percent type O.51. A good title for this selection is ______.A Getting Blood and PlasmaB Special Blood ColorsC Universal Giver and ReceiverD Human Blood Types52. The author suggests that the rarest blood type be _____ among Europeans.A AB BC ABD O53. People with type A blood can receive _______.A ABB BC OD all the above54. If you need a transfusion, the best and safest blood for you is _____.A type AB type ABC exactly the same type as yoursD a mixture of salt, plasma, and type O55. According to the passage, a person’s blood type is decided by _______.A his parentsB his nationalityC his hair colorD his heightPassage FourWomen’s fashions tend to change more rapidly than men’s. In the early 1900s all women wore their skirts down to the ankle. Today, skirt length varies from floor-length to ten inches above the knee. Women’s shores have also gone through all sorts of changes in the last seventy years. For example, boots for women were very common at the beginning of this century. Then, several years later, they were not considered fashionable. Today they are back in style again in all colors, lengths and materials. In fact, today’s women can wear all types of clothes—even T-shirts and shorts on almost any occasion. While there are some rapid changes in women’s clothing which remained pretty much the same until a couple of years ago, most men still wear the traditional suit, jacket, shirt and tie although there have been more changes about their clothing in color, pattern and variety than in the past.56. Nowadays women wear ______.A longer skirts than those women used to wear at the beginning of the this centuryB both longer skirts and short skirtsC shorter skirtsD the same as in the early 1900s57. Today, women think that long boots are ______.A fashionableB unfashionableC more fit than short onesD acceptable58. Which of the following statements is true according to the passage?A Great changes have taken place in men’s clothing recently.B Men’s clothing has not changed much.C Men’s fashion changed as rapidly as women’s.D Men never wear jackets and ties at all.59. Men’s clothes are more colorful than _____.A women’sB they used to beC traditional shirtsD ties60. What does the author imply by “today’s women can wear all types of clothes”?A Women were not allowed to wear clothes in the old days.B Women were not allowed to wear T-shirts and shorts in the old days.C Women have a wider choice of clothes now.D Women can wear men’s clothes now.IV. Translation61.Finally, aw method was discovered of producing artificial rubber which is inmany ways superior and in some ways inferior （劣的）to natural rubber.Artificial rubber is produced in factories by a complicated chemical process. It isusually cheaper than natural rubber.62．Because noise is unavoidable in a complex, industrial society, we areconstantly responding in the same ways that we would respond to danger.63．This meant that the value of currencies（货币）would now be determinedby the markets instead of individual governments.64．…if enough warning is given, steps can be taken to limit the destruction andsuffering that following a bad EL Nino.V.

英语高考试题全国卷二2017及英语高考模拟卷英语高考试题全国卷二2017及英语高考模拟卷第三部分阅读理解(共15小题;每小题2分，满分30分)请认真阅读下列短文，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
AIt might sound unbelievable that two kids under the age of ten would choose to hang out at a hotel instead of going to Disney World, just minutes away, but that’s exactly what happened when we visited the new Four Seasons Resort Orlando at Walt Disney World Resort last month. What kind of a hotel makes kids forget about Disney World?Check In: As I was signing the necessary paperwork at the front desk, my kids were taken away by Wayne, the receptionist, to a large interactive map of the resort in the entrance hall. Wayne used the touch screen to show the kids the entire resort and talked about all of the fun things to do, like the kid’s club, the waterslides, and the game room. I’ve never seen so much attention paid to the kids at check-in — such a cool touch.The Room: Not only were there kid-sized robes in the room, there were play things, NatGeo Kids magazines, chocolate lollypops, and milk chilling in the refrigerator. Plus, the room was designed from a family perspective. The sinks and shower settings were easily reachable, and the king bed and very comfortable sofa pull-out could easily fit a family of four, if not five. We had plenty of room.The Pools: There’s a large shallow infinity pool. There’s a meandering lazy river. There’s a water park. There’s an area for pool volleyball and basketball. And there are two very funwaterslides. We spent many hours roaming among them all, and just hanging out in a private teepee-shaped cabana next to the waterslides. So fun!No Surcharges: There’s no resort fee. If you want to use one of the cool cabanas around the poo ls, it’s included. For the kids club, you can use it as much or as little as you want to and the Hideout game room has a lot of activities, like pinball, at no cost. We took advantage of pretty much everything around the hotel except for the spa, and our final bill only showed our room charges, taxes, and meals. And if my kids were still under five, their meals would have been free.56. The passage is written by the author mainly to ________.A. advertise a hotel at Walt Disney World ResortB. introduce the good service Walt Disney providesC. recall the experience that they once had in a hotelD. share information about a hotel near Disney World57. Customers don’t need to pay for ________ when they stay in the hotel.A. cool cabanasB. roomsC. the spaD. taxes58. What can we learn from the passage?A. The hotel isn’t an ideal choice for a family of more than four.B. The two kids of the author should have been over five years old.C. The author spent hours playing pool volleyball and basketball.D. The receptionist showed children around Disney World Resort.BMore than 100 million people in Nigeria are not connectedto the Internet. There are only a few networks that offer service and it is costly and undependable. Now, a new project providesa resource for offline viewing at no cost.A non-profit organization called The WiderNet Project has developed the offline eGranary Digital Library. The service puts millions of digital documents, multimedia work and websites onto a server. The information is then available to students, medical workers, and researchers at no cost, whether there is Internet or not.Users can access informative websites that eGranary updates every day such as Wikipedia, Khan Academy, Project Gutenberg, MIT OpenCourseWare, and MIT BLOSSOMS (which is Math and Science video lessons for high school students). Other resources on the service include university and medical publications, computer software, and educational games.Ahmadu Bello University, the largest university in Nigeria and the second largest in Africa, uses eGranary’s digital educational resources. Kasa Mathias, head of the school’s database department, says students can access tens of thousands of educational materials without much problem.“We give them background information on the available databases that they can use for their research work, their assignments, especially projects, and sometimes we will carry them through sensitizing (激活) on new databases that are available for them.”Ibitoye Idowu, a first-year student of archeology, says easy access to university reading material, documents and journals has greatly helped his studying process, and that in some cases, he understands the digital materials better than class lectures.Students now have great reading material, but only whenthere is electric power. It often fails. Student Ibitoye Idowu says those moments are difficult.Muhammed Mu’azu who leads the Electrical and Computer Engineering Department says the university has spent a large amount of money on access to information, which is available for 40,000 students and teachers.“With or without Internet access students and staff have most of these educational databases and university has also invested a lot in Internet access so even for online materials they are readily available for staff and students anywhere you are in the university campus.”There are fears that students may waste time on social media networks like Facebook and Twitter instead of spending it on school work. Professor Mu’azu says the university ne eds to be careful about placing restrictions on usage. But he says it will investigate what a user is accessing if a large amount of bandwidth is used.Muhammed Mu’azu compares the speed of the offline service to access over the Internet. The eGranary server can download hundreds of pages in less than 15 minutes. In the past, a 10-page document would take hours to download.WiderNet says it aims to expand to thousands more education and health centers around the world.59. The eGranary Digital Library is mainly intended for ________.A. poor people in NigeriaB. Ahmadu Bello UniversityC. teachers and staff of a universityD. people who can’t access the Internet60. The underlined word “them” in Paragraph 5 probably refers to ________.A. educational materialsB. available databasesC. assignments and projectsD. university students61. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?A. Offline eGranary Digital Library is available to over 100 million people in Nigeria now.B. A university needs to pay for the service of eGranary Digital Library to offer it to students.C. The power supply becomes the main challenge students face when using offline project.D. Education and health centers in the world will all use eGranary’s digital educational resou rces.CScientists have known for decades that having measles (麻疹) suppresses kids’ immune systems for several weeks or months, leaving them ill-equipped to fight off pneumonia, bronchitis and other infections.Now a team of researchers has suggested that the measles virus may also leave a longer-lasting sort of “immune-amnesia” that makes it harder for people to stave off other illnesses for two years or more.That re-emphasizes the importance of vaccination (疫苗), said biologist Michael Mina, lead author of a paper that was published in the journal Science.“There may be a long-lasting impact that you can’t undo if your child gets measles,” he said. “I hope this study can impress upon people the danger measles poses.”The researchers used what Mina called “an unconventional approach” to search for the long-lasting immune system effects. Previous work in monkeys suggested that monkeys with the disease lost white blood cells their bodies had trained to fightoff other illnesses, leaving them more likely to be infected.To test if a similar thing may occur in humans, the group mined historical data to find out the relationship between measles incidence (发病率) and deaths from other infectious diseases.They turned to data from England and Wales — developed nations where disease levels are generally low, allowing a less-confused view of measles’ effects. Studying measles incidence and deaths from infectious disease both before and after the introduction of the measles vaccine in the U.K. in the 1960s, Mina and the team saw a sort of shadow effect, where deaths from a variety of non-measles infectious diseases closely tracked measles incidence. The more measles in a population, the more deaths from other illnesses in the 28-month period that followed.“Really it didn’t matter what age group, what decade or what country,” said Mina. “They all showed consistent results … what we’re suggesting happens over the long term is that your immune system works fine, but it has forgotten what it previously learned.”Some researchers who were not involved in the work questioned whether the reductions in deaths as measles cases declined may have had more to do with improving nutrition and smaller family size than with prolonged immune suppression.Others thought the paper’s opinion o f years-long suppression was seemingly reasonable but said they could not comment on the mathematical models the group used.To know for certain what was behind the effect the group saw, Mina agreed, scientists would need to look at immune cells and observe their behavior. He said he would like to push the work in a more traditional direction: back into the laboratory.62. Why did Mina call their research method “an unconventional approach”?A. Their research was based on the historical data.B. Their research compared monkeys with humans.C. They only paid attention to developed nations.D. They discovered a sort of shadow effect.63. According to Mina, what is the significance of their research?A. They warned people that measles can result in other infectious diseases.B. They carried out the research on measles in an unconventional approach.C. They showed how dangerous measles is and the importance of vaccination.D. They found out the disease levels are generally low in developed nations..64. The under lined phrase “stave off” in Paragraph 2 is closest in meaning to ________.A. keep awayB. survive fromC. search forD. turn down65. Which of the following may be the best title of the passage?A. Measles has been the origin of other diseases and deathsB. New research conducted into measles has been widely questionedC. Study points to years-long immune system misfortunes from measlesD. Damage caused by measles to the immune system could last several weeksDSvetlana Alexandrovna Alexievich, born on 31 May 1948, is aBelarusian investigative journalist and non-fiction prose writer, writing in Russian. She was awarded the 2015 Nobel Prize in Literature “for her polyphonic writings, a monument to suffering and courage in our time”. She is the first writer from Belarus to receive the award.Alexievich grew up in Belarus. After finishing school she worked as a reporter in several local newspapers before graduating from Belarusian State University and becoming a journalist for the literary magazine Neman in Minsk.She went on to a career in journalism and writing narratives from interviews with witnesses to the most dramatic events in the country, such as World War II, the Soviet–Afghan War, the fall of the Soviet Union, and the Chernobyl disaster. After political persecution (迫害) by the Lukashenko administration, she left Belarus in 2000. The International Cities of Refuge Network offered her shelter and during the following decade she lived in Paris, Gothenburg and Berlin. In 2011, Alexievich moved back to Minsk.According to Russian writer and critic Dmitry Bykov, her books owe much to the ideas of Belarusian writer Ales Adamovich, who felt that the best way to describe the horrors of the 20th century was not by creating fiction but through recording the evidence of witnesses. Belarusian poet Uladzimir Nyaklyayew called Adamovich “her literary godfather”. He also named the documentary novel I’m from the Burned Village by Ales Adamovich, Janka Bryl and Uladzimir Kalesnik, about the villages burned by the Nazi troops during the occupation of Belarus, as the main single book that has influenced Alexievich’s attitude to literature. Alexievich admitted the influence of Adamovich and added, among others, Belarusian writer VasilBykaŭas another source of impact on her. Her most notable works in English translation include a collection of first-hand accounts from the war in Afghanistan (Zinky Boys: Soviet Voices from a Forgotten War) and a highly praised oral history of the Chernobyl disaster (Voices from Chernobyl).Alexievich describes the theme of her works this way: If you look back at the whole of our history, both Soviet and post-Soviet, it is a huge common grave and a blood bath. An eternal dialogue of the executioners and the victims. The accursed Russian questions: what is to be done and who is to blame. The revolution, the gulags, the Second World War, the Soviet–Afghan war hidden from the people, the downfall of the great empire, the downfall of the giant socialist land, the land-utopia, and now a challenge of cosmic dimensions — Chernobyl. This is a challenge for all the living things on earth. Such is our history. And this is the theme of my books, this is my path, my circles of hell, from man to man.Her first book, War’sUnwomanly Face, came out in 1985. It was repeatedly reprinted and sold more than two million copies. The book was finished in 1983 and published (in short edition) in Oktyabr, a Soviet monthly literary magazine, in February 1984. In 1985, the book was published by several publishers, and the number of printed copies reached 2,000,000 in the next five years. This novel is made up of monologues (独白) of women in the war speaking about the aspects of World War II that had never been related before. Another book, The Last Witnesses: the Book of Unchildlike Stories, describes personal memories of children during war time. The war seen through women’s and children’s eyes revealed a new world of feelings. In 1993, she published Enchanted with Death, a book about attempted andcompleted suicides due to the downfall of the Soviet Union. Many people felt inseparable from the Communist ideology and unable to accept the new order surely and the newly interpreted history.Her books were not published by Belarusian state-owned publishing houses after 1993, while private publishers in Belarus have only published two of her books: Voices from Chernobyl in 1999 and Second-hand Time in 2013, both translated into Belarusian. As a result, Alexievich has been better known in the rest of world than in Belarus.66. According to the passage, Alexievich was able to win the 2015 Nobel Prize in Literature mainly because ________.A. she is superior to other writers in literatureB. she is the greatest journalist all over the worldC. she witnessed the most dramatic events in BelarusD. her works reflected the suffering and courage in her time67. Who played a significant role in Alexievich’s literary world?A. Ales Adamovich and Vasil Bykaŭ.B. Dmitry Bykov and Ales Adamovich.C. Uladzimir Kalesnik and Janka Bryl.D. Vasil Bykaŭand Uladzimir Nyaklyayew.68. Which of the following is TRUE about Alexievich’s first book?A. It was not until 5 years later that the book was well received.B. It is written from the viewpoint of women and children involved in the war.C. It was first published by Belarusian state-owned publishing houses in 1984.D. It reveals something unknown about World War II to the public.69. What can we know from the theme of Alexievich’s works?A. She discusses who is to blame for the wars in her works.B. She takes a practical view of the future for her motherland.C. Her works show sorrow and sympathy for war victims and her country.D. Her works merely focused on the disasters the Belarusian experienced.70. What can be inferred from the passage?A. Some people were dependent on the Soviet Union with affection.B. Women and children are the main characters of Alexievich’s works.C. Voices from Chernobyl published in 1999 was written in Belarusian.D. Alexievich has been highly respected by the Lukashenko administration.第四部分任务型阅读(共10小题;每小题1分，满分10分)请认真阅读下列短文，并根据所读内容在文章后表格中的空格里填入一个最恰当的单词。

(2 points for each, altogether 30 points) Directions:There are three passages followed by questions. Beneath each question there are four choices respectively marked by letters A, B, C and D. Choosethe right answer for each question. Write your answers on the answer sheet.Passage 1Billy is 14 years old and in the ninth grade. He has a part-time job which gets him up every morning at 5 o'clock. He is a newspaper boy. Each morning，Billy leaves the house at 5:15 to go to the corner，where the newspapers are. The newspapers are delivered to the corner by truck at midnight. He always takes a wagon to carry them.In the winter, it is still dark when he gets up，but during the rest of the year it is light. Billy must deliver the newspapers to the houses of people on his route in all kinds of weather. He tries to put each paper on the porch(门廊)where it will be protected from wind and rain or snow. His customers think he does a good job. Sometimes they give him tips(小费).Billy earns about $ 70 per month，and he is saving some of the money to go to college. He spends the rest on records and clothes. Once a month，he has to collect money from his customers. Since many of them work during the day，Billy has to collect the money at night. Sometimes，when Billy is sick，his brother has to deliver the newspapers. Once，Billy's father had to help. Billy has seventy customers now，but he hopes to get more soon. Someday，if he gets more customers，Billy might win a prize for being an outstanding(突出的)newspaper boy. He wants to win a trip to Europe，but he will be happy if he wins a new bicycle.31. Keeping a part-time job tells us that Billy ______.[A] has to make a living by himself[B] can not get any support from his family[C] has to pay for his school tuition[D] is independent and self-confident32. He did his work ______.[A] perfectly well [B] twice a week[C] only for fun [D] to support his family33. To deliver newspapers means ______.[A] to post newspapers [B] to send newspapers[C] to sell newspapers[D] None of the above.34. One of the purposes of delivering newspapers is ______.[A] to get some money for college education[B] to have some tips[C] to have more customers[D] None of the above.35. The prize for an outstanding newspaper boy is ______.[A] a trip to Europe[B] a new bicycle[C] a tip[D] A or BPassage 2Friends or contemporaries(同龄人)are a great influence on the actions，thoughts，and words of young people. This influence，known as peer pressure，is quite common among children. Why are children so easily affected by what their peers do，think，or say?Most of us，children included，feel a strong need to be liked by others. We seek acceptance and friendship. In order to gain them，we act like our friends，and listen to their advice，whether or not it is helpful. Some of us even begin to think like our friends，sometimes at the expense of our own beliefs and values. An example that comes to mind is the young person who gets involved with drugs because his peer group is experimenting with them. Parents may try to exert pressure to keep him away from drugs，but frequently peer pressure is too great. This conflict between being your own person and，at the same time，responding to the pressures of a group remains a problem for young people.36. The passage mainly talks about _____.[A] friendship[B] peer pressure[C] conflicts between young people and their parents[D] problems for young people37. In the third sentence of the second paragraph，"them" refers to _____.[A] children[B] strong needs to be liked by others[C] acceptance and friendship[D] our friends' advice38. "being your own person” in the last sentence most probably means _____.[A] acting according to your own beliefs and values[B] trying not to tell any lie[C] keeping yourself away from drugs[D] having enough self-confidence39. The second paragraph focuses on _____.[A] what peer pressure is[B] how young people start to take drugs[C] what parents should do for their children[D] why young people are easily influenced by their peers40. Who can influence us on the actions, thoughts? _____.[A] Teacher[B] Father[C] Mother[D] Friends and contemporariesPassage 3Background music may seem harmless，but it can have a powerful effect on those who hear it. Recorded background music first found its way into factories，shops and restaurants in the US. But it soon spread to other parts of the world. Now it is becoming increasingly difficult to go shopping or eat a meal without listening to music.To begin with，"muzak"（音乐广播网）was intended simply to create a soothing atmosphere. Recently，however，it's become big business - thanks in part to recent research. Dr. Ronald Milliman，an American marketing expert，has shown that music can boost(促进)sales or increase factory production by as much as a third.But，it has to be light music. A fast one has no effect at all on sales. Slow music can increase receipts by 38%. This is probably because shoppers slow down and have more opportunity to spot items they like to buy. Yet，slow music isn't always answer. liman found，for example，that in restaurants slow music meant customers took longer to eat their meals，which reduced overall sales. So restaurant owners might be well advised to play up-tempo music to keep the customers moving - unless of course，the resulting indigestion leads to complaints！41. The reason why background music is so popular is that ______.[A] it is harmless everywhere[B] it can boost sales in all places[C] it can help to create a soothing atmosphere[D] it can help to have more meals42. Background music means ______.[A] light music[B] slow music[C] fast music[D] the music you are listening to while you are doing something43. Restaurant owners complain about background music because ______.[A] it results in indigestion[B] it keeps customers moving[C] it increases their sales [D] it decreases their sales44. The word "up-tempo music"(para. 3 the last line but two) probably means ______.[A] slow music[B] light music[C] fast music[D] classical music45. According to this passage, we learned that ______[A] Dr. Milliman made background music.[B] background music spread to the world by Dr. Milliman.[C] Dr. Milliman found fast music meant customers took longer to eat.[D] background music can have a powerful effect on some people.IV.
