C onservative.CIf you want to succeed in life,you need to express the proper body language,with or without having to say anything else.You will certainly notice a whole new reaction from people if you use the power of body language.Relax your shoulders,keep your hands at your sides(never inside your pockets) and breathe slowly.Have a wann,welcoming facial expression as if you look fonvard to communicating.Depending on the situation,you may smile when appropriate.Face the other person or your audience and keep eye contact as much as possible throughout the talk.Nodding and tilting（倾斜）your head closer can show that you are listening Do not fold（交叉）your arms,look down at the floor or put your hands in your pockets.These can show that you are uninterested.If you have any comments,you can show them in negative but respectful ways like raising your eyebrowsA lot of your body language can show how confident,i n terested,bored,angry or nervous you are.Keeping your head up throughout the entire conversation can show that you are very much into the conversation at hand.You may feel f r ee to use a few hand gestures to emphasize（强调）a point.If you're� things,it's better to use each of your fmgers as you mention each item to help your audience keep track.Pacing will help you create more ground if you have a larger crowd to communicate with.It will also show confidence on your part as you think of more things to sayBe very careful when touching the other person since you are crossing the boundaries（界限）of body language through actual contact.Remember that in !b ody language,it is your body that does the tal血g for you8.According to the text,if you find a listener raising his eyebrows,he may .A.try to show his anger8.want to give his own opinionC.not understand what you sayD.want to prove his confidence9.The underlined word "enumerating" in paragraph 6 may mean ""A.consideringB.judgingC.numberingD.discussing10.What's the author's suggestion if you have a larger crowd to communicate with?A.To walk at a slow pace.B.To shake hands with every person.C.To look down at the floor.D.To fold your arms.11.What is the most suitable title for the text?A.The Power of Body LanguageB.The Attraction of Body LanguageC.The Origin of Body LanguageD.The Understanding of Body LanguageDIii a world where nearly 6 million fingerprint records of government employees are stolen in one computer hack（非法入侵），and here m.illions of people are victims of identity theft every year,the next step in cybersecurity may well be mapping your brainResearchers at Binghamton University,State University of New York are worki11g on a biometric（生物特征识别的）system that records how your brain reacts to certain images.With alittle more polishing,the scientists'lli:l!in could become the way you get into a safe depositbox,your office or past scanners at the airport.It could replace the password for your onlineban血g,your emai I or your social media accounts.They started their project by measuring the brain waves of 30 subjects.The subjects werefitted with a cap that had 30 electrodes（电极）attached to it,and then shown various images and symbols-celebrity faces, w ords,pictures of food一on a computer screen in 200-millisecond bursts.The brain's reaction was recorded.The idea is that every time a person needs to use a "password",he or she goes through the same procedure,and the results are matched with their first-time reaction.If the "brainpr血“is compromis e d一like what happened with the fingerpri.Jit record s一th e n the system is mere I y reset by running another set of images and collecting a different set of brai.J1 waves."Even if that was stolen,you could just cancel it and record one to something else",says professor Laszlo Laszlo and her team have shown that their system can be l 00 percent accurate.So one of the more difficult parts of making the system practical already has been overcome.Now,they're spending much time recordi.J1g accurate brainprints with as few as three electrodes,which could make recordi.J1g in the future as easy as weari.J1g a pair of special glasses.They're also working with cheaper materials and different methods to see if they can bring the cost down12.What does the underli.J1ed word "brainchild" in paragraph 2 refer to?A.The brai.J1 function.B.The fingerpriJlt recordC.The biometric systemD.The onli.J1e password.13.Why were the images and symbols shown to the subjects?A.To create their brainpri11ts.B.To check the brain's reaction.C.To match brainprints with picturesD.To connect brai.J1waves to electrodes.14.What will happen when a brainprint fails?A.A spare one will be ready beforehand8.A new one will be set againC.The users'security will be leaked.D.The fingerprint record will replace it15.What are the researchers doing with the programme now?A.Making it user-friendly.B.Improving its accuracyC.Recording more brai.J1printsD.Iiicreasing the number of electrodes.第二节（共5小题，每小题2.5分，满分l25分阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以埴入空白处的最佳选项。

I tore my clothes off — shoes, socks, underwear and all —and shouted, “Can I go now?”“Yes,” my mom answered, “but once you close that door, don't expect to come back.”I was so angry that I shut the door forcefully and stepped out of my home. Then I noticed down the street two neighbor girls walking toward our house. I was so shy that I saw the big spruce (云杉) tree in our yard and jumped under the low-hanging branches. A pile of dried-up brown needles were beneath the tree, and you can't imagine the pain those sharp needles caused to my body.After I was sure the girls had passed by, I ran to the front door and knocked at it loudly.“It's Billy! Let me in!”The voice behind the door answered, “Billy doesn't live here anymore. He ran away from home.”Looking behind me to see if anyone else was coming down the street, I said, “Mom!

ATate Modern,London,UKTogether with three other Tate museums, Tate Modern located in London is a national museum of international modern art. It is one of the largest museums of modern and contemporary art in the world. Most of the exhibit items are open to the public for free,only charging for major temporary(临时的) exhibitions.The Louvre,Paris,FranceIt is the world's largest and most visited art museum and a historical landmark of Paris. Housed in the Louvre Palace,the museum has been added to many times since its opening in 1793. Its glass pyramid in the main courtyard was designed by Chinese American architect Ieoh Ming Pei,and it later became a signature design of the museum, appearing in the hit thriller The Da Vinci Code starring Tom Hanks and Audrey Tautou.National Museum of China, Beijing, ChinaNear Tiananmen Square in Beijing, it's one of the largest museums in the world and the second-most visited art museum in the world, just after the Louvre. Covering a time span from the Yuanmou Man of 1.7 million years ago to the Qing Dynasty, the museum houses around 1.05 million items—many cannot be found in museums elsewhere.State Hermitage Museum, St. Petersburg, RussiaThe State Hermitage Museum is the second-largest art museum in the world. The public can visit five of the main buildings:Winter Palace, Small Hermitage, Old Hermitage, New Hermitage and Hermitage Theatre.Frequently seen in pop culture, it often appears as a setting for films, TV series, novels and even video games.1.Tate Modern, London, UK is attractive partly in that .A.it is a national museum with three branchesB.entry to most of its exhibitions is free of chargeC.its exhibitions range from ancient art to modern artD.visitors can purchase some wonderful exhibit items2.What do we know about the Louvre?A.It often serves as a setting for films.B.It stays the same as it was when first built.C.It is the most visited art museum in the world.D.It was designed by a Chinese American architect.3.Which museum displays unique items from the Yuanmou Man?A.Tate Modern, London, UK.B.The Louvre, Paris, France.C.National Museum of China, Beijing, China.D.State Hermitage Museum, St. Petersburg, Russia.BI turned 8 years old the day I skipped school for the first time. It was easily done: Both my parents left for work before my school bus arrived on weekdays, so when it showed up at my house on that cold winter morning, I simply did not get on. The perfect crime!And what did I do with myself on that glorious stolen day, with no adult in charge and no limits on my activities? Did I get high?Nope. I built a warm fire in the wood stove, prepared a bowl of popcorn, grabbed a blanket, and read. I was thrilled at a book—it was Hemingway's The Sun Also Rises —and I just needed to be alone with it for a little while. I ached to know what would happen to Jake Barnes and Lady Brett Ashley and Robert Cohn. I couldn't bear the thought of sitting in a classroom taking another exam when I could be traveling through Spain in the 1920s with a bunch of expatriates (侨民).I spent that day lost in words. Time fell away, as the room around me turned to mist, and my role—as a daughter, sister, teenager, and student—in the worldno longer had any meaning. I had accidentally come across the key to perfect happiness: I had become completely absorbed in something I loved.Looking back on it now, I can see that some subtle things were happening to my mind and to my life while I was in that state of absorption. Hemingway's language was quietly braiding itself into my imagination. I was downloading information about how to create simple and elegant sentences, a good and solid plot. In other words, I was learning how to write. Without realizing it, I was hot on the trail of my own fate. Writing now absorbs me the way reading once did and happiness is their generous effect.4.Why did the author skip school on that day?A.Because her parents left home early.B.Because it was a biting cold winter morning.C.Because she was fascinated by a novel.D.Because she was anxious to take the exam.5.What did the author think is the source of true joy?A.Reading fiction by the fire.B.Traveling with a bunch of expatriates.C.Breaking the rules and regulations.D.Being occupied by one's passion.6.Which can best replace the underlined phrase “braiding itself into” in the last paragraph?A.Entering.B.Destroying.C.Mending.D.Blocking.7.What can we infer from the passage?A.The author was tired of her roles in real life.B.Writing has a horrible effect on the author's life now.C.The author often skipped school when she was 8 years old.D.Becoming a writer is the author's childhood dream.CArtist Zsudayka Nzinga Terrell clearly remembers the day in high school when the teacher asked her to write about her family history. She saw that it was impossible to answer the questions “Who am I?” and “Where did I come from?”Nzinga Terrell told VOA about her childhood memories. “So the white kids were able to get up and talk about hundreds of years of their background. And there was me and one other black kid in the class who could go back to a plantation in Virginia and that's it.” She talked about her family's history. “My people were brought here at the bottom of a ship. And they were sold and they were re-named. My dad's side of the family took the last name from the job that they had, which is Butler. My mom's side of the family took the last name from the plantation that owned them.”Today, she and her husband, artist James Terrell, explore that identity in their work. Their new exhibit of paintings is called “Born at the Bottom of the Ship.” The show recently opened at the Center for the Arts in Manassas, Virginia.Over the generations, Africans became African Americans with a new culture, and Nzinga Terrell includes different parts of that story in her art. There are things that look like African cloth and design and things that make you think of American culture and clothing.James Terrell's style is more abstract. Mami Wata, the first painting visitors see in the new exhibit, shows a woman rising from the ocean. Terrell explains the painting, “Mami Wata is a goddess of the sea... There's no light going through; there's not a lot of color being seen, as opposed to the other ones. So, it's just showing the time of the slaves being brought to America.”But the artist says he also likes to play with color. Growing up, Terrell attended a church with colored glass in many windows. Because of that experience, he learned how light goes through the windows. He makes lines in his painting that look like the lines between pieces of colored glass in the church windows.Terrell's works show how he sees himself as an African American. Visitors to the art exhibit say they see themselves and their family members in the works.8.Young Nzinga Terrell's memory of her family history can date back to .A.the time when slaves were sold and re-namedB.the time when she was born at the bottom of a shipC.the time when the black slaves were brought to AmericaD.the time when her family worked on a plantation in Virginia9.How did Nzinga Terrell's father get his family name?A.It was named after a plantation.B.It was named after their owner's name.C.It was named after the job the family did.D.It was named long ago after a place in Africa.10.What's the painting Mami Wata like?A.It's typical of native American style.B.It reflects a dark time of the black slaves.C.It's abstract with rich and bright colors.D.It describes a church James once attended.11.How does the visitors probably feel seeing Terrell's works?A.Strange.B.Curious.C.Depressed.D.Moved.DJason Barnes is a young musician who lives in Georgia. Eight years ago, Jason lost his right arm just below his elbow in an accident. Jason got a prosthetic (假体的) arm. But this arm could only do a few things. Jason still wanted to play music. So he went to see Gil Weinberg, who makes musical robots. To play the piano, Jason needed five fingers that could move just the way he wanted. This was a big challenge.Living arms move when muscles respond to commands from the brain. When you think “open fingers”, your brain sends electrical signals along nerves. Some prosthetic arms use sensors (传感器) to try to read these nerve signals. But they don't work very well. Nerves are tiny, and their signals are faint. Sensors might be able to tell that you want to move a finger. But they aren't very good at telling which finger you want to move.Jason doesn't have his hand anymore, but he still has the arm muscles that move his fingers. When Jason thinks about moving his fingers, those muscles stillmove. To read the muscles inside Jason's arm, the team used ultrasound (超声波). The roboticists taught a computer to read the ultrasound sensor as Jason thought about moving his fingers. The computer learned which muscles moved when Jason wanted his fingers to move in a certain way. Thinking about moving his fingers makes the muscles in his upper arm move. The computer sees the moving muscles and tells the motors in Jason's robotic fingers to move the right way.The team hopes the “Skywalker hand”, their prosthesis, will someday work as well as a real hand. The sensors, motors, and computers inside the hand are not complex. But they need to get smaller and cheaper before lots of these hands can be made. Weinberg and his team are working on this right now. Soon, they hope that anyone who loses a hand will be able to get a new robotic one with five fingers that they can move just by thinking.12.Why did Jason visit Weinberg?A.To save his own life.B.To learn to play music.C.To study musical robots.D.To replace his prosthetic arm.13.What does the underlined word “faint” in Paragraph 2 mean?A.Specific.B.Weak.C.Stable.D.Predictable.14.What makes the invention of the robotic hand possible?A.Moving muscles are simpler to spot than nerves.B.Nerve searching techniques have developed fast.C.Ultrasound sensors vary from finger to finger.D.Motors are much quicker to operate.15.What do Weinberg and his team expect of the “Skywalker hand”?A.It'll be easy to make.B.It'll be customer-friendly.C.It'll be better than real hands.D.It'll be controlled by computers.第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分,满分12.5分)阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。

Unit 4 单元测试题第一节（共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分）阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项。

APhiladelphia (CNN) — Hazel Donnelly was taking her husband to the doctor when they got a call that their building was on fire.Her first thought was about Kramer. “I don’t have children of my own, so my cat is like my child. I became very sad,” said Donnelly, 50. “What if he didn’t make it?”Once she arrived home, Donnelly asked firefighters (消防员) to get her cat, but they were busy trying to control the fire. Then Red Paw Emergency Relief Team arrived. The organization helps pets and their owners for free when disaster strikes. Jen Leary, who set up the group, helped find the animals once the fire was out.“Everyone who received their pets started to cry,” said Donnelly.No one was hurt, but the Donnellys’ building was badly damaged, and they weren’t sure where they were going to stay. Donnelly was excited to learn that Red Paw could provide free short-term care for Kramer, her 17-year-old cat.“When someone loses everything in a fire, they shouldn’t then be forced to lose their pets — their family members — as well,” Leary said. “Letting them know, ‘We’ll take care of your animal like it is our own’means the world to people.”After a big fire in 2011, Leary formed her organization. Since then, Leary and her group have provided help to nearly 1,000 animals and their families throughout southeastern Pennsylvania. Like the Red Cross, but for animals.Red Paw cared for the Donnellys’ cat for more than three weeks. “I cried when we were reunited,”said Donnelly. “They went above and beyond the call of duty. I am so thankful.”For Leary, helping families and their pets is what her work is all about. “My hope is that it’s a start, and they can move forward together,”she said. “After going through such a sad thing, it’s so good to have a happy ending.”21. We can infer from the text that Kramer is _____.A. Donnelly’s husbandB. Donnelly’s childC. a firefighterD. a cat22. What do we know about Red Paw?A. It offers help to pets and their families.B. It was set up by Hazel Donnelly.C. It belongs to the Red Cross.D. It saves people in disasters.23. The fire in the Donnellys’ building _____.A. took many people’s livesB. caused great damage to the buildingC. left Donnelly seriously hurtD. led to the loss of a family member24. Who looked after Kramer for a long time after the fire?A. A doctor.B. Jen Leary.C. Red Paw.D. The Red CrossBWelcome to Death Valley. The very name of this national park in eastern California might fill some people with dread, but you’re not afraid. You’re just out enjoying the desert sunshine. Besides, there’s nothing out here but some rocks.Some of the rocks in Death Valley weigh hundreds of pounds. And in the ground behind each rock is a mysterious trail (痕迹), as if the rock had been pushed along in the dirt.So who is moving the rocks? Nobody. It was nearly 100 years ago when these unusual “sailing stones” were first reported. People have been trying to find out the stones’ secret ever since. One early explanation was that winds were moving the stones. Other explanations have included animals, and, of course, aliens (外星人).Until the 1990s, one widely held theory was that the rocks were stuck in sheets (片) of ice that were being blown across the desert. (Death Valley does get cold enough for ice to form on some winter nights.) However, research later showed that to move such large ice sheets, the wind would have to blow at hundreds of miles per hour. There are strong winds in Death Valley — but not that strong.Then, in 2006, a scientist named Ralph Lorenz came up with a new theory. He suggested that in the winter, thick ice forms around the rocks. When the ground begins to thaw (解冻), the rocks, wearing ice, sail along, leaving trails behind them. Lorenz put his theory to the test in his own kitchen. He dropped a rock into a dish, added a little water, and stuck the dish in his fridge. Later, he took out the rock and placed it in a dish of water with sand at the bottom. Sure enough, with just a breath, Lorenz was able to send the rock moving across the water —leaving a trail in the sand as it moved.Has Lorenz solved the mystery of the sailing stones at last? Perhaps. On the other hand, neither Lorenz nor anyone else has ever actually seen the stones move. Maybe aliens are responsible after all.25. The underlined word “dread” in Paragraph 1 probably means “_____”.A. fearB. angerC. surpriseD. excitement26. According to the theory in the late 20th century, the rocks were probably moved by _____.A. the iceB. the windC. aliensD. animals27. What did Ralph Lorenz find?A. The wind in Death Valley could reach a speed of 100 mph.B. The rocks in Death Valley couldn’t move by themselves.C. Death Valley could get cold enough for ice to form.D. Water helped the rocks in Death Valley move.CDear friends and colleagues (同事) of Tom Blumenthal,We are organizing a celebration honoring Tom’s research career (生涯).

When asked how I was going to pay, I opened my purse to get my credit card (信用卡). It wasn’t there!Nell and I looked at each other in shocked silence. Then, from the line behind us, a voice asked, “How much do you need?”When I said we would need $300 to get us through our first week, the kind man gave us the needed money. We discovered he and his wife were returning home to Toronto a couple of weeks later on the same flight as we were, so we made sure to see them to return the money and give them a gift to thank them.I later found out I had left my card at a garage (加油站) in Torontoa week before our vacation.

单元测评(四)(时间：90分钟满分：110分)第一部分阅读理解(共两节；满分30分)第一节(共10小题；每小题2分，满分20分)阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中，选出最佳选项。

AIn the supermarket my daughter ran over to me with a DVD in her hand. “Mum! Hotel for Dogs is out. Can we get it？”“Of course, but you must use yo ur own money，” I said.She looked at the price and put it back.Usually my kids are happy to spend my money, but are much more careful when it comes to putting_their_hands_in_their_own_pockets. I like to think this is because they have earned their money and it therefore has a value to them.My children's pocket money is reward­based. They each have certain weekly jobs: they clean their rooms, organize their clothes and clear the table. There are things that we need to pay attention to while rewarding children: the rules need to be clear, transparent (透明的) and very fair. And I don't want money to be connected in their minds with the giving of love.Therefore, my children's pocket money is not based on them “being good”. It is too difficult to be good for most normal children all day, every day for a full week.I also don't believe in paying my children to be kind and well­mannered. This is something we expect from them as part of our family and as little human beings. As a reward for good behavior such as going to bed on time, I'd rather use a reward­based activity or experience that is done together: ice skating or a cinema trip instead of money. Punishments for bad behavior will usually be not allowing them to play.I really want to teach my children good money management skills, and I believe allowing them to earn and spend their own pocket money is a great place to start.语篇解读本文是议论文。

If an earthquake happens, it may cause many deaths, injuries and damage. So you need a good preparation ahead of time. Decide how and where your family will get together if separated. Choose an out-of-state friend or relative that the family members can call after the quake to report where they are and how they are. Know the safe places in each room: under the strong tables, desks, or against inside walls. Keep enough food, water and other things, including a flashlight, a radio, medicines and clothing.During the earthquake, you should keep a clear head and never be too nervous to know what to do. Protect your head and neck with your arms. If possible, take a book, a pillow or any other things to protect yourself from falling glass andruins. If you are indoors, you must immediately lie under any strong furniture. If outdoors, move to an open area away from trees, buildings, walls or power poles. If you are in a narrow valley, move to the centre of it and look up for falling stones. If you are in a car, move to the side of the road and stop the car. Do not stop near buildings, power lines or on or under bridges. Stay in your car until the shaking stops.Do not move a badly injured person unless he is in great danger after the earthquake. Do not use the telephone immediately unless there is a serious injury or fire. Turn on your radio for instructions and news reports. Be prepared for aftershocks. If you want to leave your home, post a message inside your home telling your family members where you can be found.1．To prepare for an earthquake, we should make sure of ________.A．when an earthquake may happenB．the place where we can find our familyC．how to receive instructions and news reportsD．the money with which we can buy food and water2．If we are driving when an earthquake happens, we should ________.A．find a strong building to hide inB．leave the car as soon as possibleC．go on driving quickly to leave the areaD．move to the side of the road and stop there3．After an earthquake, we should ________.A．move an injured person quicklyB．use the telephone immediatelyC．turn on the TV to get news reportsD．leave a message before leaving homeBEvery summer, the Serengeti plains (平原) of Africa are worth visiting. Millions of wild animals begin their 1,800-mile journey northwards on their annual migratory (迁移的) route.In the month of November, polar bears in their thousands cross the Canadian Arctic, as they head towards the ice sheets of Hudson Bay. The sea ice that forms every winter is the key to the bear’s managing to exist, for here they hunt for seal s (海豹).The Great Bustard, one of the heaviest flying birds, migrates each year across Europe and Asia to its wintering grounds. Unluckily, these and other migratory animals are in danger from human activity.We have written several articles on climate change and the effect of rising ocean temperatures. Since 1979, ice sheets in the Arctic have gone down by 30 percent. What does this mean for polar bears? They are forced to stay on land for longer periods of time, which delays their search for food. As a result, bears today are 60 pounds lighter than what they were. Besides, smaller bears also produce weaker babies, and their chances of survival are at risk. In the plains of Africa, migratory animals like gazelles are traveling long distances for food, just to avoid falling prey (牺牲品) to humans who hunt them.In an unusual step, experts from 120 countries have agreed to protect 31 migratory mammals, fish and birds. The United Nation’s 11th annual Conservation of Migratory Species of Wild Animals (CMS) was hel d in Quito, Ecuador. For the first time, 900 experts attended the conference, and the enthusiastic support shows the world is united in conservation (保护) efforts.What does getting on a protected list mean? Countries that have signed the agreement will be required to pass laws locally and work with other countries that fall within the animal’s migratory path. Only one animal did not make the list. The African lion was rejected (拒绝) for lack of information of the countries where it lives.4. What can we learn from the passage?A. The Great Bustard is one of the largest flying birds.B. The weight of polar bears today is lighter than what it was.C. In the 1970s, ice sheets went down by 30 percent.D. 120 experts have agreed to protect 21 migratory animals.5. Why was the African lion not included in the list from the passage?A. We don’t know which countries it lives in.B. It isn’t a migratory animal.C. Experts were not interested in this animal.D. It was not traveling long distances for food.6. The writer writes this passage aiming to __________.A. let us know about the animalsB. prevent the rare animals from dying outC. inform us of the effects of climate changeD. draw our attention to helping the migratory animals7. All these factors have probably put the migratory animals in danger EXCEPT _______.A. some human activityB. the enthusiastic support from expertsC. rising ocean temperaturesD. climate changeC“WHAT IS CIVILISATION?” asked Kenneth Clark 50 years ago in the seminal (开创性的) BBC series on the subject. “I don’t know, and I can’t define it in abstract terms, yet. But I think I can recognise it when I see it, and I’m looking at it now.” And he turned to gesture behind him, at the soaring (高耸的) Gothic towers and flying buttresses of Notre Dame.It seems inhuman to care more about a building than about people. That the sight of Notre Dame going up in flames has attracted so much more attention than floods in southern Africa which killed over 1,000 arouses understandable feelings of guilt. Yet the widespread, intense grief at the sight of the cathedral’s (大教堂) collapsing steeple is in fact profoundly human — and in a particularly 21st-century way.It is not just the economy that is global today, it is culture too. People wander the world in search not just of jobs and security but also of beauty and history. Familiarity breeds affection. A building on whose sunny steps you have rested, in front of which you have taken a selfie with your loved one, becomes a warm part of your memories and thus of yourself. That helps explain why China is in mourning —WeChat, young China’s principal (主要的) means of talking to itself, has been following the story.This visual age has endowed (赋予) beauty with new power, and social media have turned great works of art into superstars. Disaster, too, is visual. In the 24 hours after the fire started videos on social media of the burning cathedral were viewed nearly a quarter of a billion times.And it will be rebuilt. The effort to rebuild it will bring people togeth er. Within 24 hours, €600m ($677m) had been raised from businesses and rich people, and a rash of crowdfunding campaigns started.Yet the emotions the sight aroused were less about the building itself than about what losing it might mean. Notre Dame is an expression of humanity at its collective best. Its survival through 850 years of political turbulence — through war, revolution and Nazi occupation — binds the present to the past.It will never be the same, but that is as it should be. As Victor Hugo wrot e in “The Hunchback of Notre Dame”, a three-volume love-letter to the cathedral: “Great edifices (建筑物), like great mountains, are the work of centuries. Art is often transformed as it is being made...Time is the architect, the nation is the builder.”8. What can we infer according to Paragraph 1?A. Kenneth Clark is a staff (职员) in BBC.B. Kenneth Clark believes that Notre Dame is a symbol of civilization.C. Civilization is so abstract that Kenneth Clark can’t recognise it.D. Notre Dame is the subject of the BBC series.9. Why the sight of Notre Dame going up in flames has attracted so much attention according to the passage?A. Because the sunny steps in Notre Dame for people to rest on is impressive.B. Because Notre Dame has boosted the local economy.C. Because numerable people around the world has been there and left good memories.D. Because social media like WeChat in China help more people know it.10. What’s the main idea of the last paragraph?A. The essence (精髓) of Notre Dame will be lost if we rebuild it.B. It is difficult to rebuild Notre Dame.C. If it were not for the fire, Notre Dame will always stay the same.D. Notre Dame will change as time goes by even without the fire.四．七选五“The calm before the storm” is a very familiar expression. It is usually used to describe a peaceful period just before a very stressful situation or a tense argument. 16. They noted that before certain storms the seas would seem to become calm and the winds would drop.But why is it often so calm before a storm? 17. According to US website HowStuffWorks, a calm period occurs because many storms, tornadoes and hurricanes draw in all the warm and damp air from the surrounding area. As this air rises into the storm clouds, it cools and acts as “ fuel for the storm ,like petrol in a car. “Once the storm has taken all the energy it can from the air, it is pushed out from the top of the storm clouds and falls back down to ground level. 18. So once it covers an area, it causes a calm period before the storm.19. First count how many seconds there are between a flash of lightning and a clap of thunder, roughly three seconds equal one kilometer. A good judgement is that if your count is below 30 seconds, you should seek shelter straight away.However, due to the complexity of storm system ,calm doesn't always go first. So, your best bet is to keep yourself updated with weather reports for any predictions regarding a coming storm in your area. 20.A. Science has given us the answer.B. There is no definite answer to the question.C. Weather reports sometimes cannot be trusted.D. British sailors coined the phrase in the late l600s.E. As the air declines, it becomes warm and dry, which is stable.F. The Weather Network has a tip for working out how far away a storm is.G. That's the most reliable way to predict the next display of nature's temper.五．完形填空Every year about 40,000 people attempt to climb Kilimanjaro, the highest mountain in Africa.
