Dr. Aiken studied a munber of couples who had been mairied for at least hventy-five year s. Each couple provided four photogiaphs-one photo of each partner at the time of th eir maniage and another photo of each partner twenty-five or more years later. All bac kground was cut fiom the photos to remove any chies. The photos were then displaye d in gi oups: a random giouping of the persons at thetime of their mamage and anothe r random grouping of the same persons who took photogi aphs later. Some testees wer e asked to pick out the partners. They failed totally with the first gioup. Their judgeme nts were no better than chance. But with the photos taken hventy-five or more years af ter the maiTiage. the testees were quite successftil with the most happily-manied coup les.Dr. Aiken believes there are several reasons why couples grow alike. One reason has something to do with imitation. One person tends to copy or do the same as some one else without knowing it. He says human begins to imitate the expressions of the fa ces of their loved ones. u Another possible reason J he says, “is the common experienc e of the couples." There is a tendency for people who have the same life experience to change their faces in similar ways. For example, if a couple have suffered from a lot of sad experiences, their faces are likely to change in a similar way.21.Dr. Aiken cut the background from the photos fbr the piupose ofA.imitating the coupleslifeB.grouping the couples againC.leaving no trace fbr the testeesD.giving the testees more chances22.Tlie underlined sentence u Tlieir judgements were no better than chance“ iinpl ies that the testees.A.did a good job in making theii, choices.B.had difficulty in picking out the partnersC.had no chance to make the right judgementsD.did better with the first gioup than with the second23.The underlined word “imitate” (in Para. 2) has a similai, meaning toA. copyB. changeC. knowD. suffer24.From the passage we can diaw the conclusion that.A.couples who look alike can live longerB.most partners have been proved to grow alikeC.the influence between partners can be quite strongD.happily-mamed couples are often richer than others25.The main piupose of the passage is to.A.explain why couples glow alikeB.tell how couples like each otherC.discuss the fiuiction of mamageD.describe the life of happily married couplesPassage ThieeThe three biggest lies in America are: (1) “The check is in the mail”, (2) "Of coiir se ril respect you in the morning”, and (3) “It was a computer error.”Of these tlii ee little white lies, the worst is the third. Ifs the only one that can nev er be tine. Today, if a bank statement cheats you out of $ 900 that way, you know wha t theclerk is sure to say,“ It was a computer error." Nonsense. The computer is reporti ng nothing more than what the clerk typed into it.The most amioying case of all is when the computerized cashier in the grocery st ore shows that an item costs more than it actually does. If the innocent buyer points o ut the mistake, the checker, bagger, and manager all come together and o ffer the famil iar explanation: “It was a compute error.”It wasn't, of course that computerized cashier is really nothing more than an elect ric event. The eye reads the Universal Product Code-chat bar of black and white line s ina comer of the package-and then checks the code against a price list stored in m emory. If the price list is right, you'll be charged accurately.Grocery stores update the price list each day—that is, somebody sits at a keyboar d and types in the prices. If the price they type in is too high, there are only two expla nations: carelessness or dishonesty. But somehow “a computer erroi” is supposed to e xcuse everytliing.One reason we let people hide beliind a computer is the common misperception t hat huge, modem computers are ele ctric brain with “artificial intelligence.^ At some p oint there miglit be a machine with intelligence but none exists today. The smartest co mputer on Earth riglit now is no more intelligent than your average pen. At this point i n the development of computers, the only thing any machine can do is what a human has iiistnicted it to do.26.Of the three lies, the one about computer is the worst because the computer it self.A. says nonsenseB. cheats customersC. caimot make the enorD. does not admit its eiTor27.According to the author, a computerized cashier is really just.A. a machine to coimt moneyB. a machine to receive moneyC.an instnunent to print codesD.an iiistniment to read codes28.Grocery store price lists are updated by.A. a computerB. a keyboaidC. an employeeD. an electr ic brain29.The last paragraph of the passage implies that computers.A. are veiy cleverB. never make mistakesC. have a good memoryD. are controlled by men30.Which of the following describes the main idea of the passage?puters are stupid and inefficient.puter eiTors are due to its dishonesty.puters help stores update the price list.puter errors are actually human errors.Passage FourI came across an old coimtiy guidebook the other day. It listed all the tradesmen in eac h village, and it was impressive to see the past variety of sendees which were availabl e onone's own doorstep in the late Victorian coxmtryside.Nowadays a tiaveler in niral England miglit conclude that the only village tradesmen still floiuishing were either selling frozen food to the \ illagers or selling antiques to vi sitors. Nevertheless, tliis would really be a false impression. On the suiiace, there has been adecline of village commerce, but its power is still remarkable.Our local grocer's shop, for example, is actually expanding in spite of the competition from supeiinarkets in the nearest town. Women sensibly prefer to go there and excha nge the local news while doing their shopping, instead of queuing up at a supennaiket • And the grocer knows well that personal service has a considerable cash value. His prices may be a bit higher than those ill the town, but he will deliver anything at any ti me.His assistants think notliiiig of bicycling down the village street in their lunch hour to take a piece of cheese to an old retired woman who sent her order by word of mouth with a friend who happened to be passing. The richer customers telephone their shopp ing lists and the goods are on their doorsteps within an hour. They have only to hint at a fancy fbr some commodity outside the usual stock and the grocer, a red faced-figiu' e, instantly obtains it fbr them.31.Nowadays the commercial services in the village are.A. still veiy activeB. quickly decliningC. unable to flouiishD. pe rsonal to visitors32.The local grocer's shop is expanding because.A.the competition there is weakB.it is a place fbr women to chatC.it provides good personal serviceD.the goods there are more valuable33.Wliich of the following is true about the supeiinarkets?A.Prices there are much liigherB.Customers often have to queue up.C.Customers can order by telephone.D.Their personal services are satisfactoiy34.How do the village grocet's assistants feel about giving extra seivice?A.They don't think it a tionble.B.They don't think it worthwhile.C.They don't consider it a good deal.D.They don't consider it a pleasant experience.35.One special featiu e of the village shop is that.A.there is a very wide range of goods availableB.customers can order goods by word of mouthC.customer have to order goods one hour earlierD.there is a list of goods to be delivered to doorstepsPart III Abcabulary and Stnictiire (20 points)Directions: There are 40 incomplete sentences in this part.

Each passage is followed by five questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A,B,C and D, choose the best and mark your answer on the ANSEWRPassage OneHave you ever heard of a pawpaw(木瓜)? If not, do not feel bad. Many Americans do not know of the fruit, although it is native to the U.S..Once, however, it was one of the most popular fruits in North America. Happily, those who love the pawpaw are trying to return it to its former position in American foods.A pawpaw is a tropical fruit that used to be grown along the East Coast from New York to Florida and all over the eastern U.S..At one time, it could be found as far west as Nebraska.The pawpaw was an important food for Native Americans and even early European settlers. Pawpaws reportedly were a favorite treat of George Washington, the first U.S. president, who especially liked them cold. Thomas Jefferson, the third U.S. president, was also s fan of the fruit. He planted papaws at his home in Virginia. He also sent pawpaw seeds to his friends in France, American explorers Lewis and Clark wrote in their journals about the pawpaw.The pawpaw is difficult to be sold commercially. The fruit requires a very special environment---low, wet areas that sometimes flood. It has a very short harvest season, from two to three weeks in September and October. In addition, the fruit is good to eat for only two to three days after harvesting. This makes it hard to sell anywhere distant from the pawpaw tree it comes from.Planters are again growing pawpaw trees and harvesting the fruit. In several states farmers h ave organized “pawpaw festivals” to reintroduce people to food. At such a festival in Maryland recently, farmers displayed different products made with pawpaws, like pawpaw jams, pies, ice-cream and beer.16. Many American people do not know that the pawpaw _____A. Was once popular in the U.S.B. Is native to the U.S. onlyC. Has become popular againD. Is a healthy fruit17The pawpaw used to be found mainly _____A. Around NebraskaB. In the eastern U.S.C. All over FloridaD. In New York suburbs18George Washington and Thomas Jefferson are mentioned in paragraph 3 as _____A. American explorersB. Famous politiciansC. Early pawpaw plantersD. Pawpaw lovers19It is difficult to sell the pawpaw on a large scale for the following reasons EXCPEPT that the fruit _____A. Requires a very special environmentB. Has a very short harvest seasonC. Does not taste goodD. Is difficult to preserve after harvesting20.Pawpaw festivals are organized in some states _____A. As a way of celebrating harvestB. As part of the traditional cultureC. To display pawpaw growing techniquesD. To reintroduce people to the fruitPassage TwoThroughout history, humans have suffered from a condition that they have never been able to escape—ageing. Some researchers, however, believe we may be thinking about it in the wrong way. They say we should start treating ageing itself as a disease—one that can be prevented and treated.Their hopes are founded on recent discoveries that suggest biological ageing may be entirely preventable and treatable. From a biological preventive, the body ages at different rates according to genetic and environmental factors. Tiny errors build up in our DNA and our cells begin developing faults that can grow into tissue damage, which leads to ageing and ageing—related diseases.One of the leading figures in human life research, Aubrey De Grey, explains in an interview that their goal is to develop a set of therapies for middle-aged and older people that will leave them physically and mentally equivalent(相当的) to someone under the age of 30. “Of course, without wiping their memories,” he adds. But he doesn’t think that is will be possible to stop ageing altogether. Hesees a future where “rejuvenation technologies” can be applied to old people in order to revert their cells to what they were like when they were in their youth, buying them extra time. The idea is that someone who is treated at the age of 60 will be biologically reverted to 30. But because the therapies are not permanent fixes. Their cells will end up becoming 60 years old again in another 30 years time.21.By “treating ageing itself as a disease”, some researchers mean _____A. Aged people are liable to diseasesB. Ageing can be dealt with like a diseaseC. Ageing is a disease hard to cureD. Ageing should be treated carefully22.Humans age at different rates due to _____ reasons.A. PhysicalB. BiologicalC. Genetic and environmentalD. DNA and cell-related23.The goal of De Grey’s research is to _____.A. Freeze people’s ageB. Make people youngerC. Stop ageing altogetherD. Adjust people’s memories24.What does “rejuvenation” (para.3) possibly mean?A. Relating to cellsB. Relating to genes.C. Becoming healthy.D. Becoming young.25. What will happen if someone is treated with De Grey’s technology?A. He will stay young for a longer timeB. He will no longer grow old.C. He will live up to at least 60 years old.D. He will not get ageing-related diseases.Passage ThreeWhen jack Davis, 9, looks up at the night sky, he doesn’t see just the stars. He sees his future. The fourth grader from New Jersey has a deep interest in outer space and the alien(外星的) beings he thinks might live there.In July, Jack heard that NASA was looking for a new planetary protection officer and decided he was the right person for the job. The position, which focuses on preventing astronauts from accidentally bringing extremely small, potentially dangerous alien life-forms back to Earth and ensuring that astronauts do not take Earth-based germs with them into space, pays from $124,406 to $187,000 per year.Jack wrote a letter to NASA, noting his qualifications for the job. “My sister says I am an al ien,” Jack wrote, pointing out that since he is young, he can “learn to think like an alien.” He signed the letter “Jack Davis, Guardian of the Galaxy.”Within days, Jack received a personal letter from NASA’s planetary science director, James L. Green. “We are always looking for bright future scientists and engineers to help us,” Green wrote.”I hope you will study hard and do well in school. We hope to see you here at NASA one of these days!”Jack said he was “shocked” when Green’s response arrived. “I shouted, I got a letter from NASA!”Green says he loves to answer letters from children. He calls his response a “gravity assist.” Spacecraft use gravity assistance from objects like planets and moons to help power the craft toward another celestial(天上的) body. Green hopes a reply can influence a person’s path in life in a similar way.26. Which of the following can best describe Jack Davis?A. MatureB. Curious.C. Talented.D. Honest27.What is the job responsibility of the planetary protection officer?A. To ensure the mental and physical health of the astronautsB.

Guide young people by giving them a gravity assistD. Explain how Green’s letter serves as a gravity assistPassage FourOnline dating has just been revealed to be one of the most common ways to start a relationship. But new research reveals that the concept is still highly flawed(有缺陷的).An analysis of 400 studies into online dating shows that while it offers access to plenty of other singles, users can be overwhelmed and put off by the volume of choice, defeating the purpose.The research, by Northwestern University and published in the journal Psychological Science in the public interest, found that the processes involved don’t lend themselves to forming strong relationships. The findings alsoindicated that the concept of an online profile(介绍) is not entirely useful and “can result in treating potential partners as mere objects”.Lead author Eli J Finkel explained: “Online dating is a terrific addition for singles to meet. However, there are two problems.” First, studying over seemingly endless lists of profiles of people one does not know, as on , does not reveal much about them. Second, it “overloads people and they end up shutting down,” he said.He compared i t to shopping at “supermarkets of love” and said psychological research shows people presented with too many choices tend to make lazy and often poor decisions.The study’s authors also questioned the algorithms(算法) employed by sites such as to match people based on their interests or personality—comparing it to having a real estate agent of love. While the algorithm may reduce the number of potential partners from thousands to a few, they may be as unsuitable for each other as two people meeting at random, Dr Finkel explained, adding the chances are no better than finding a relationship by walking into any bar. “There’s no better way to figure out whether you’re a match with somebody than talking to them over a coffee or beer,” Dr Finkel said.31.What is the author’s attitude towards online dating?A. NegativeB. PositiveC. IndifferentD. Neutral32.According to Paragraph 2, online dating _____A. Attracts a limited number of singlesB. Has been widely studied recentlyC. Is criticized as lacking a purposeD. Offers too many choice33.The phrase “lend themselves to”(Para.3) probably means _____A. Be opposed toB. Be easily used forC. Be happy withD. Be consistent with34.Why is Dr. Finkel mentioned in the passage?A. He is the lead researcher of the study on online datingB. He is a well-know professor at Northwestern UniversityC. He is an expert in analyzing people’s shopping patternsD. He is the president of a famous online matching website35. According to Dr Finkel, what is the best way to find a match?A.

For each of them there are four choices marked A, B,C and D. You should decide on the best choice and blacken the corresponding letter onthe Answer Sheet.Passage 1Questions 1 to 5 are based on the following passage:Flores Colque celebrated her 118 birthday last month. She is the oldest woman in Bolivia (玻利维th亚). Following the death of a woman in Japan earlier last year, Flores Colque may now be the oldestperson in the world. Her national paper says Flores Colque was born on October 26, 1900 in themountains of Bolivia.During her long life, Flores Colque has seen two world wars. Her home country of Bolivia hada major revolution. And the town where she is from has grown from 3,000 people to 175,000. Butright now, Flores Colque seems mostly interested in her dogs and cats. She has not heard of theGuinness Book of World Records, and she does not care whether experts confirm she is the oldestperson alive.“She’s always been active, easygoing and fun,” says her grandniece, who lives with her in a simple home with a dirt floor. Government officials have paid for some improvements to the house,adding a brick path and railings (栏杆), so Flores Colque can walk safely. The mayor’s office calls Flores Colque part of the country’s living history.On the day a reporter visited, Flores Colque was playing a small guitar and singing old songsin her native language. “If you would have told me you were coming, I’d have remembered al songs, “she joked.When she was growing up, Flores Colque herded sheep in the Bolivian highland. (76) Thenshe moved to a valley, where she sold fruits and vegetables. Those fruits and vegetables became hermain food, and she still eats a healthy diet----expert for a piece of cake and a glass of sodasometimes. She never married and does not have children. She cannot hear very well, but she isalert(机敏的). Flores Colque’s age would make her interesting anywhere, but it is especially notablein Bolivia.

In schools,teachers use games like Minecraft to encourage teamwork and critical thinking.(77)But for some players, gaming has become an unhealthy habit. Late at night, they are gluedto a screen. Schoolwork suffers. The video-game world seems a friendlier place than the real one.Mental health experts have taken notice. In June, the World Health Organization (WHO) addedgaming disorder to its list of diseases and health conditions. A person may have the disorder ifgaming has damaged his or her relationships with family and friends, and if it has affected his orher daily activities.Not all experts agree that excessive gaming should be called a disorder. They say peoplehooked on video games may be suffering from other mental health problems that should be treatedfirst.Others think WHO made the right call. Psychiatrist(精神科医生) Clifford Sussman treatsgaming addiction(上瘾).（78）He says kids often have feeling of anxiety and loneliness. Theyget angry when a parent asks them to stop playing video games.When makes video games addictive? Playing excites the brain’s reward center. After a while, the brain becomes numb (麻木的) to pleasure. You feel bored without a controller in your hand. Soyou play even more.One key to healthy gaming is to track how long you play. Sussman recommends taking at leastan hour-long break after every hour of play. That gives the brain time to recover.Young gamers who think they might have a problem should seek help from an adult. Sussmansuggests you first answer a simple question: “Are you in control, or is the game in control?6. Which of the following is the best title for the passage?A. Mental Health ProblemsB. Excessive GamingD. Teamwork TrainingC. Unhealthy Habits7.8.

Sussman advises game players to _______________.A.quit playing video gamesB.C. play sports instead of video gamesgo to the hospital to get medical treatmentD. rest for at least an hour after every hour of play10. According to the passage, which of the following statements is NOT TRUE?A. Video games are addictive.B. Video games are never used in classroom teaching.C. Excessive gaming may affect a person’s daily activities.D. Some experts don’t think excessive gaming should be called a disorder.Passage 3Questions 11 to 15 are based on the following passage:Jayden Hairtson was very disappointed. More than anything in the world, he wanted to learnhow to sing. His school in Yonkers---- just north of New York City ---- didn’t offer the musicinstruction he needed. So he begged his parents to sign him for after-school lessons.Jayden’s mother wanted to help her son follow his passion. (79) But private lessons were tooexpensive. Jayden, then 6 years old, knew exactly what to do. He took out his iPad. Then he begansearching after-school arts programs. He soon came across the website for Harlem School of theArts (HSA), in New York City. There, he could take voice and dance lessons. It was a bit far fromYonkers. But he convinced his parents to take him for a visit.That was three years ago. Now Jayden is one of HSA’s mostactive students. He takes singing,dancing, or theater lessons almost every day after school. (80) Last year, he performed in sevenproductions.Like Jayden, students in many communities across the United States have limited access (使用的机会或权利) to arts instruction in schools. HSA is one of many nonprofit groups that bridgesthis gap by offering affordable arts classes. Groups like HSA are funded by donations(捐赠) andstate grants. Many also receive money from the federal government’s NationalEndowment(基金)for the Arts(NEA).The NEA was established in 1965. Its goal is to promote access to the arts for all Americans.Some people, however, believe it’s not the responsibility if the federal government to provide artsfunding. President Donald Trump’s 2019 proposal calls on Congress to reduce NEA funding andeventually eliminate the agency. The Trump administration argues that private and other publicsources already provide funding for the arts. Congress has yet to make a decision.Supporters of arts education say cutting the NEA is a bad idea. It could leave many childrenunable to participate in the arts. That’s because 40% of the agency’s grants go to hig-povertyneighborhoods.11. Which of the following is the best title for the passage?A.B.C.D. Arts Education Is ExpensiveJaden Has Great Musical TalentSome Students Have Limited Access to Arts Instruction Trump Calls on Congress to Reduce Arts Funding12. Jayden got the information about HSA from __________.A. his motherB. his music teacherC. the InternetD. the newspaper13. Jayden Hairston is _____ years old now.C. 8 14. The word eliminate in Paragraph 5 is closest in meaning to ____________. B. remove C. rebuildD. run 15. According to the passage, which of the following statements is TRUE? A.6B.7 D. 9 A.criticizeA.B. C. D. HSA is a nonprofit group established in 1965. Congress agrees to Trump ’s proposal to cut the NEA.Arts instruction directly affects students’ academic success.Jayden takes singing, dancing, and theater lessons at HSA.Part ⅡVocabulary and Structure (30%)Directions: In this part there are 30 incomplete sentences.

18年11月10日北京地区学位英语考试Part ⅠReading Comprehension (30%)Directions: There are three passages In this part Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. You should decide on the best choice and blacken the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet.Passage 1Questions 1 to 5 are based on the following passage:Flores Colque celebrated her 118th birthday last month. She is the oldest woman in Bolivia (玻利维亚). Following the death of a woman in Japan earlier last year, Flores Colque may now be the oldest person in the world. Her national paper says Flores Colque was born on October 26, 1900 in the mountains of Bolivia.During her long life, Flores Colque has seen two world wars. Her home country of Bolivia had a major revolution. And the town where she is from has grown from 3,000 people to 175,000. But right now, Flores Colque seems mostly interested in her dogs and cats. She has not heard of the Guinness Book of World Records, and she does not care whether experts confirm she is the oldest person alive.“She’s always been active, easygoing and fun,” says her grandniece, who lives with her in a simple home with a dirt floor. Government officials have paid for some improvements to the house, adding a brick path and railings (栏杆), so Flores Colque can walk safely. The mayor’s office calls Flores Colque part of the country’s living history.On the day a reporter visited, Flores Colque was playing a small guitar and singing old songs in her native language. “If you would have told me you were coming, I’d have remembered all the songs, “she joked.When she was growing up, Flores Colque herded sheep in the Bolivian highland. (76) Then she moved to a valley, where she sold fruits and vegetables. Those fruits and vegetables became her main food, and she still eats a healthy diet----expert for a piece of cake and a glass of soda sometimes. She never married and does not have children. She cannot hear very well, but she is alert(机敏的). Flores Colque’s age would make her interesting anywhere, but it is especially notable in Bolivia. The United Nations says the country has one of the South America’s highest levels of death.1.Which of the following is TRUEA.The oldest person in Japan was born in 1901.B.Flores Colque is the oldest person in Bolivia.C.The oldest person in Japan knew Flores Colque.D.Flores Colque has read the Guinness Book of World Records.2.According to the passage, Flores Colque lives in ___________ now.A.JapanB. North AmericaC. EuropeD. South America3.The word herded in the last paragraph can probably be replaced by ________________.A.made animals move along as a groupB. fed animals as a groupC. kept animals from hurting each otherD. made sure animals did not follow one another4.From the passage we learn that Flores Colque once ____________.A.sang to make a livingB.fought in World War TwoC.sold fruits and vegetablesD.worked as an animal doctor5.Which of the following statements about Flores Colque is NOT TRUEA.She is easygoing.B.She keeps pets.C.She remains sing all her life.D.She lives alone.Passage 2Questions 6 to 10 are based on the following passage:Playing video games can be a fun way to unwind or spend time with friends. In schools, teachers use games like Minecraft to encourage teamwork and critical thinking.(77)But for some players, gaming has become an unhealthy habit. Late at night, they are glued to a screen. Schoolwork suffers. The video-game world seems a friendlier place than the real one.Mental health experts have taken notice. In June, the World Health Organization (WHO) added gaming disorder to its list of diseases and health conditions. A person may have the disorder if gaming has damaged his or her relationships with family and friends, and if it has affected his or her daily activities.Not all experts agree that excessive gaming should be called a disorder. They say people hooked on video games may be suffering from other mental health problems that should be treated first.Others think WHO made the right call. Psychiatrist(精神科医生) Clifford Sussman treats gaming addiction(上瘾). （78）He says kids often have feeling of anxiety and loneliness. They get angry when a parent asks them to stop playing video games.When makes video games addictive Playing excites the brain’s reward center. After a while, the brain becomes numb (麻木的) to pleasure. You feel bored without a controller in your hand. So you play even more.One key to healthy gaming is to track how long you play. Sussman recommends taking at least an hour-long break after every hour of play. That gives the brain time to recover.Young gamers who think they might have a problem should seek help from an adult. Sussman suggests you first answer a simple question: “Are you in control, or is the game in control”6.Which of the following is the best title for the passageA.Mental Health ProblemsB. Excessive GamingC. Unhealthy HabitsD. Teamwork Training7.The word unwind in Paragraph 1 is closest in meaning to _____________.A.matchB.meetC.retreatD.relax8.Clifford Sussman’s attitude to WHO’s recognition of excessive gaming as a disorder is _______.A.supportiveB. doubtfulC. neutralD. critical9.Sussman advises game players to _______________.A.q uit playing video gamesB.play sports instead of video gamesC.go to the hospital to get medical treatmentD. rest for at least an hour after every hour of play10.According to the passage, which of the following statements is NOT TRUEA. Video games are addictive.B. Video games are never used in classroom teaching.C. Excessive gaming may affect a person’s daily activities.D. Some experts don’t think excessive gaming should be called a disorder.Passage 3Questions 11 to 15 are based on the following passage:Jayden Hairtson was very disappointed. More than anything in the world, he wanted to learn how to sing. His school in Yonkers---- just north of New York City ---- didn’t offer the music instruction he needed. So he begged his parents to sign him for after-school lessons.Jayden’s mother wanted to help her son follow his passion. (79) But private lessons were too expensive. Jayden, then 6 years old, knew exactly what to do. He took out his iPad. Then he began searching after-school arts programs. He soon came across the website for Harlem School of the Arts (HSA), in New York City. There, he could take voice and dance lessons. It was a bit far from Yonkers. But he convinced his parents to take him for a visit.That was three years ago. Now Jayden is one of HSA’s most active students. He takes singing, dancing, or theater lessons almost every day after school. (80) Last year, he performed in seven productions.Like Jayden, students in many communities across the United States have limited access (使用的机会或权利) to arts instruction in schools. HSA is one of many nonprofit groups that bridges this gap by offering affordable arts classes. Groups like HSA are funded by donations(捐赠) and state grants. Many also receive money from the federal government’s National Endowment(基金) for the Arts(NEA).The NEA was established in 1965. Its goal is to promote access to the arts for all Americans. Some people, however, believe it’s not the responsibility if the federal government to provide arts funding. President Donald Trump’s 2019 proposal calls on Congress to reduce NEA funding and eventually eliminate the agency. The Trump administration argues that private and other public sources already provide funding for the arts. Congress has yet to make a decision.Supporters of arts education say cutting the NEA is a bad idea. It could leave many children unable to participate in the arts. That’s because 40% of the agency’s grants go to high-poverty neighborhoods.11.Which of the following is the best title for the passageA.Arts Education Is ExpensiveB.Jaden Has Great Musical TalentC.Some Students Have Limited Access to Arts InstructionD.Trump Calls on Congress to Reduce Arts Funding12.Jayden got the information about HSA from __________.A.his motherB. his music teacherC. the InternetD. the newspaper13.Jayden Hairston is _____ years old now.A.6B.7C. 8D. 914.The word eliminate in Paragraph 5 is closest in meaning to ____________.A.c riticizeB. removeC. rebuildD. run15.According to the passage, which of the following statements is TRUEA.HSA is a nonprofit group established in 1965.B.Congress agrees to Trump’s proposal to cut the NEA.C.Arts instruction directly affects students’ academic success.D.Jayden takes singing, dancing, and theater lessons at HSA.Part ⅡVocabulary and Structure (30%)Directions: In this part there are 30 incomplete sentences. For each sentence there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the ONE answer that best completes the sentence. Then blacken the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet.16.
