2017年普通高等学校招生全国统一考试仿真卷英语（九）第Ⅰ卷第一部分听力（共两节，满分30 分）略第二部分阅读理解（共两节，满分40分）第一节（共15小题：每小题2分，满分30分）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，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

AAre you looking for a museum off the beaten path? Try these places.Bata Shoe MuseumThe Bata Shoe Museum opened in 1995 on the premise(前提) that “footwear is a source of delight and reflection of human history”. The space was designed by Raymond Moriyama. Permanent collection includes 12000 pairs of shoes and artifacts. Notable shoes are those belonging to Marilyn Monroe, Princess Diana, Elton John and Madonna.Campbell HouseCampbell House was built in 1822 by Sir William Campbell –chief justice of Upper Canada from 1825-1829. Campbell lived in the house for 12 years before he died. The house was occ upied by various other families and used for various other uses (vinegar factory, glassworks). In 1972 in order to preserve the building, the Advocate’s Society moved from its location on Adelaide St to its current home at Queensland University. The building was restored to be as historically accurate as possible.Gibson House MuseumThe Gibson House Museum is an example of Georgian architecture. It was built in the mid 19th century as a farm house for David Gibson – a member of the Legislative Assembly. After being used as a boarding house for many years, the building interior was restored. The museum has a hands -on “discovery gallery”with interactive（互动的）games and exhibits. On weekends workshops are offered on cooking, desserts, breads and preserves.Black Creek Pioneer VillageBlack Creek is a recreation of a Victorian Farm with buildings moved and reconstructed from aroundOntario. The result is a 1860s Ontario village. Exhibits demonstrate how domestic tasks were completed before modern technology. Activities include spinning, baking, and a history lesson.Historical interpreters dress in the clothing of the period and answer visitors’ questions. Favorite destinations in the village include the farm, doctor’s house, and the mill. At the historic brew ery, beer is brewed using all natural ingredients. The restaurant serves meals using locally sourced ingredients. On site are also areas for concerts and gift shop. Black Creek is operated by the Toronto and Region Conservation (TRCA).21. Who designed Bata shoe Museum?A. Princess DianaB. Elton JohnC. Raymond MoriyamaD. Marilyn Monroe22. Campbell House once served as a.A. universityB. glue worksC. farm houseD. vinegar factory23. If you are into interacting with others in games, you will probably go to.A. Bata Shoe MuseumB. Gibson House MuseumC. Campbell HouseD. Black Creek Pioneer Village24. We can learn from the passage that.A. Campbell House was occupied by Campbell for a score of years.B. Bata Shoe Museum includes 1200 pairs of notable shoes and artifacts.C. Gibson House Museum was constructed approximately in the 1820s.D. Visitors can know about historic farming culture when visiting Black Creek.BMy wife, daughter, and I moved into our home nine years ago and we spent a lot of time and energy in the yard to get it looking like it does today. We live on a corner, higher than street level, and the entire side of the yard is surrounded by a professionally buil t rock wall. The front of the house though is another story because instead of a wall along the sidewalk, the rocks appear to be just thrown up onto the dirt as if someone were in a hurry to finish.We did the best we could with what we had to work with an d called this area our “rock garden”. Whenever we had leftover flowers or plants, Denise or I would stick them out front, just to bring some color to the area. We would do all of the yard work on our own, even the tiring weed-pulling.Last summer I had reached the end of the rock garden and found a tiny little plant that I could not immediately identify, I knew I didn’t plant it and Denise claimed that she didn’t either. We decided to let it continue growing until we could figure out what it was.Weeks passed and as I made my way back to the mystery plant, it appeared to be a Sunflower with a tall skinny stalk(茎，杆) and only one head on it. I decided to baby it along and weed around it. As I pulled rocks from the area to get to the weeds, I noticed something unusual. The Sunflower had not started where I saw the stalk begin. It actually had begun under a big rock and grown under and around it to reach the sun.That’s when I realized that if a tiny little Sunflower didn’t let a big rock stand in its way of developing, we too have the ability of doing the same thing. Once our environment begins to see that we believe in ourselves like that little Sunflower, we can attain the same nourishment(营养) and growth as well.Stand tall like the Sunflower and be proud of who and what you are and the environment will begin to support you. You will find a way to go under or around your big obstacle in order to reach your desires.25. Why is the front of the house another story according to the author?A. The workers finished it in a hurry.B. There is a wall along the sidewalk.C. The family view it as a rock garden.D. The rocks are piled there at random.26. The author found it unusual that_______.A. the Sunflower grew under and around a big rockB. the Sunflower had a tall stalk and only one headC. the mystery plant turned out to be a SunflowerD. a rock stood in the way of the flower’s growth27. Which of the following best describes the Sunflower?A. Brave and stubborn.B. Confident and persistent.C. Optimistic and modest.D. Mysterious and devoted.One of our expectations about education is that it will pay off in terms of upward mobility.Historically, the relation between education and income has been strong. But in the early 1970s, a contradiction developed between education and the economy. Our value of education and our average educational attainment（获得）run faster than the capacity of the economy to absorb the graduates.Since the 1970s, high-school graduates have experienced a striking decrease in earnings, making them the first generation since World War Ⅱto face a lower standard of living than their parents had. Experts have argued that this contradiction is at the heart of the problem of public education today. It is not, as business leaders claim, that the schools are failing to properly educate students, that they are turning out young people who are inadequately prepared to function in the workplace. The real problem is a shortage of economic opportunities for students who are not continuing on to colle ge. College graduates also are having difficulty finding jobs. Even when they do, the jobs may not be consistent with their training and expectations. Part of the problem is that too many young Americans expect to have professional jobs, making disappointment and frustration unavoidable for some.Many students assumed that what was true of an individual—that the higher the education, the better the job opportunities —would also be true for an entire society. But when the numbers of better-educated young people became too great, the economy could no longer absorb them. Another part of the problem is the assumption that greater educational attainment guarantees career advancement. In fact, employers do not routinely reward educational attainment; rather, the y reward it only when they believe it will contribute to the employee’s productivity.We should not overlook the fact that there is still a strong relationship between education and occupation and income. College graduates have a strong advantage over thos e with less education. But the payoff is neither as large nor as certain as it once was. Unfortunately, Americans have focused so strong on the economic payoff that many consider their college education useless if it does not create a desirable, well-payin g job. Only in this sense can we speak of an “oversupply” of college graduates.We could argue that all or at least the majority of Americans would profit by some degree because higher education can enable the individual to think more deeply, explore mor e widely, and enjoy a greater range of experiences.28. The underlined phrase “turning out” in Paragraph.2 probably means.A. bringing upB. putting outC. bringing outD. putting up29. When do employers reward higher education?A. It offers better job opportunities.B. It makes for higher productivity.C. It guarantees career advancement.D. It brings a definite advantage over others.30. The passage mainly talks about ________.A. our expectations about educationB. the problem of public education todayC. the contradiction between education and economyD. the connection between education and occupation31. What’s the writer’s attitude towards higher education?A. ObjectiveB. IndifferentC. DisapprovingD. FavorableDEver since Donald Trump was elected the next president of the US, the entire Trump family has been put under a microscope.In China, the spotlight has been mainly focused on Trump and his daughter Ivanka. Sh e is described on WeChat as an extremely influential role model with stunning beauty, a successful career, and a happy family.She leads a dream life that a million girls would kill for. Yes, she was born with a silver spoon in her mouth. But she got where she is by herself.There’s always going to be articles that say people born into wealthy families are better looking and have a better family background than you, but these people do work harder than you.Are you a loser if you were raised in an ordinary family? Should you feel guilty that you sleep eight hours a day because Ivanka sleeps five? If you just want to keep a stable nine-to-five job, does it mean you are not ambitious? How about if you don’t work out or eat healthy, does that mean you will not find your Mr. or Miss Right?There is a tendency in media nowadays to encourage elitism(精英主义).They are trying to brainwash young people into thinking that they should invest an enormous amount of time and money in bodybuilding and appearance enhancement, even plastic surgery. They encourage lifestyle makeovers: wine tasting classes and expensive trips overseas. They make you believe that if you do as they say, you can improve the quality of your life and join the elites (社会精英).But what’s the downside of being ordinary? Do you really need to go to the gym five days a week unless you are a gym maniac(热衷者)? Do you need to take hundreds of selfies and Photoshop the selected ones to post on WeChat? Do you really need to break your ne ck and sacrifice to earn your first pot of gold only to worry constantly about how to enter high society later?Don’t let the idea of elitism get to you. Everybody has a right to the life they want. Human beings should not be judged as a success or failure based on whether they are a part of the elite or not. As long as you lead a happy and comfortable life, why bother to chase after other people’s shadows? Choose your own life path and go for it.32. Why does Ivanka become a hit online?A. She lives such a dream life that a million girls would like to kill her.B. She together with her family is put under careful investigation.C. She is a virtual role model frequently seen among ordinary people.D. She gets what she has through personal efforts despite decent origin.33. Which of the following are considered as a life belonging to people of higher social rank?①Polish and post carefully- selected selfies on WeChat;②Break your neck to earn your first pot of gold;③Spare no expense to improve physical appearance;④Sign up for wine tasting classes and oversea trips;A. ①④B. ②④C.②③D. ③④34. It can be inferred from the text that ____________.A. Ivanka sleeping five hours a day makes the vast majority guilty.B. Keeping a stable nine-to- five job will be thought of as a loser.C. Being distinguished is a commonly advocated culture nowadays.D. Improving the quality of life will promote one’s social status.35. Which attitude towards life would the writer probably agree with?A. Life is like a dogsled team. If you aren’t the lead dog, t he scenery never changes.B. There is only one success — to be able to spend your life in your own way.C. Life consists not in holding good cards but in playing those you hold well.D. The greatest lesson in life is to know that even fools are right somet imes.第二节（共 5 小题，每小题 2 分，满分10 分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，选项中有两项为多余选项。

He is neglected by his father because hisfather is still mourning the death of his mother who died of an unspecifiedillness. His school life does not go off smoothly. He is often picked on bysome good-for-nothing kids, which leads him to play truant a lot.It doesn’t sound like a fantasy story so far, does it? Fantasy is supposed to take us away from the unpleasantness of life, not to rub our noses in it. But it is just where the fantasy begins. One day, running away from bullies at school, Bastian hides in a bookstore. There he finds a book which appeals to him, and he steals it and takes it home. Bastian becomes fascinated with the book. It drags him in, just as we are dragged into fantasy books. The book he reads is called The Neverending Story.The story spellbinds Bastian. It tells of a land called Fantastic. Fantastica is sick, and the person most sick is its ruler, the Child-like Empress. The reason for the sickness is a kind of war that is being waged on Fantastica by a force called Nothing. The Empress asks a boy, Atreyu, to help her battle Nothing before it conquers Fantastica. But what of Bastian, sitting hidden away, reading the story from his stolen book? He becomes part of the tale himself. The Empressgives Bastian a vital job to join forces with Atreyu in the struggle against Nothing.But even though Bastian has now entered the pages of a fantasy fiction book, he has brought his troubles with him. He has problems dealing with the challenges brought by his new life. When the Child-like Empress gives him use of a magic gem called Auryn he abuses it for self-interested ends. To find his True Self he has to learn how. Only that way can he help the Empress, Atreyu and Fantastica and make his way back into the real world from the place he came.Like Bastian, we sometimes have our troubles. Also like Bastian, we can find ways to solve them with enough commitment. In the The Neverending Story, young readers can find a wonderful fantasy that also offers a positive message about their own world.24. What can we infer from the first paragraph?A. The boy gets hooked on science fiction books.B. The boy’s father is doing a bad job in raising him.C. The boy’s father has a happy marriage.D. The boy gains popularity at school.25. How does Bastian enter the land of Fantastica?A. Bullies at school force him to seek courage in this place.B. He skips school and arrives at the place accidentally.C. He becomes absorbed in the book after stealing it from a bookshop.D. His father cannot afford to raise him so he abandons him in this place.26. Which of the following is TRUE of The Neverending Story?A. The Empress asks Auryn and Bastian to help her fight the war.B. The Child-like Empress starts a war against the force Nothing.C. Bastian does not do all that he can to save Fantastica when given the magic gem.D. Bastian gets away from the trouble and problems of the real world in Fantastica.27. What is the best positive message readers can learn from the book?A. Tomorrow is another day.B. We can do whatever it takes to bring down our enemies.C. Fantasy worlds breed truth.D. We can solve our problems as long as we make enough efforts.C（江西临川二中等重点中学2017届一次联考）China is fully prepared to export a full supply chain of high-speed railway technology, according to industry experts.China Railway Corp, the national rail operator, said exports of railway equipment and railway construction projects are proceeding well, and breakthroughs are being made in a number of projects overseas.Among the projects, the first full-chain commission, the Jakarta to Bandung high-speed railway in Indonesia, which includes technology, design, construction, equipment manufacture, supply of resources, operations management and staff training, has been granted a construction permit and work is proceeding smoothly.“China's railways have established a comprehensive and advanced technology system, which is able to provide overseas customers with solutions from many different perspectives, including financing, construction, operations, and research and development,” said Yang Zhongmin, the CRC's deputy chief engineer, who added that China's railway system is competitive in terms of technology and economy of use.According to Yang, the nation's railway equipment and infrastructure (基础设施) service businesses have entered markets in Asia, Europe, North America and Africa.Last year, Joko Widodo, president of Indonesia, and Malaysian Prime Minister Najib Razak, rode Chinese-made bullet trains.Yang Hao, a professor of rail transportation management at Beijing Jiaotong University, said China has a major advantage in that it is able to export a full range of railway technology: “For example, it is inconvenient to import the technology for the signaling system from one country and civi l engineering technology from another.”28.

Ronan Milne got in touch with Newsbeat to say his colleague Dawn Hunter was made a captain aged 24 at Loganair.Sarah Hendry is also 24 and a captain with the same company.Kate began flying in the air cadets(见习生) when she was 13 years old, but admitted to the Press Association that she never thought she could become a commercial pilot. However, following aviation training in Southampton, she joined easyJet as a co-pilot in Ma y 2011.This August she took up the rank of captain after passing the airline’s command course.“Personally I don’t think my age matters,” she said. “I’ve been through the same training and passed the same command course as every other captain so I’ve proven myself capable regardless of my age.”Kate is originally from Carlisle, but now lives in Surrey so she can be near to Gatwick Airport. From there she flies Airbus A319 and A32 planes to locations across the world, including Iceland, Israel and Morocco.“I rarely fly to the same place twice in the same month,” she said. “That keeps things interesting.”Around 5% of commercial pilots are women. Last year easyJet announced a plan to increase its number of female entrants to 12%.Julie Westhorp, chairwoman of t he British Women Pilots’ Association (BWPA), hopes Kate will inspire more women to think about working in aviation. She says: “Both the BWPA and easyJet are aware of the importance of visible role models for girls and young women when making career choices and continue to work together to encourage young women to consider a pilot career.”32. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?A. More women will take up a pilot career, inspired by Kate.B. Kate has flown to around 100 destinations across the Europe.C. Most people like the female pilot at such a young age.D. There are more training and courses for the female pilot.33. Which of the following is the correct order, according to the passage?a. Kate became a co-pilot of EasyJet.b. A plan to increase its number of female employees was made by EasyJet.c. Kate began her flying work.d. Kate became the captain in EasyJet.A. cbadB. acbdC. cabdD. abcd34. What can be inferred from the passage?A. Kate has dreamt of being a pilot since she was a little girl.B. Kate made a move so that she could be closer to the airport.C. Kate likes experiencing something different.D. Kate has been the youngest ever female captain.35.

Television has turned 88 years old on September 7, 2015, and it has never looked better．In its youth, television was a piece of furniture with a tiny, round screen showing unclear pictures of low budget programs．In spite of its shortcomings, it became well﹣received．Between 1950 and 1963, the number of American families with a television jumped from 9% to 92% of the population．As the audience got larger, the technology got better．Television sets became more reliable through the 1960s．Both of the reception and the picture improved．The major networks started broadcasting programs in color．Even greater improvements were coming according to Sanford Brown, who wrote an article for the Post in 1967．Surprisingly, just about every prediction he made in the articlebecame a reality．For example: All sets in the not distant future will be color instruments．He also predicted that TV sets would become smaller, simpler, more reliable and less expensive and may forever put the TV repairman out of work．Smaller sets do not, of course, mean smaller screens．TV engineers expect screens to get much bigger．However, today's 3D TV is even farther away, if it's coming at all．There is some doubt whether the public would be eager to pay for it, in view of people's cold reception given to 3D movies．But the technology with the greatest potential, according to Brown, was cable television （有线电视）, which was still in its early stages then．As he predicted, the future of cable television was highly interactive．It wasn't cable television that gave Americans their electronic connection to the world, however．It was the Internet．He even foresaw the future office: using picture phones, big screen televisions for conferences, and computers providing information, at the touch of a button．Brown ever said, "The future of television is no longer a question of what we can invent．It's a question of what we want．"（1）What can we infer about television sets in the 1960s？________A They were very popular with Americans．B The reception showed no improvementC They showed black﹣and﹣white picturesD They were out of order now and then．（2）Which of the followings did Sanford Brown fail to predict？________A Television's good quality．B The invention of 3﹣D TV．C The future office's modelD The potential of cable TV．．（3）What is the text mainly about？________A The shortcomings of television．B The bright future of television．C The development of television．D The invention of television．4. Is any economist so dull as to criticize Christmas? At first glance, the holiday season in western economies seems a treat for those concerned with such vagaries （奇想）as GDP growth．After all, everyone is spending; in America, retailers make 25% of their yearly sales and 60% of their profits between Thanksgiving and Christmas．Even so, economists find something to worry about in the nature of the purchases being made．Much of the holiday spending is on gifts for others．At the simplest level, giving gifts involves the giver thinking of something that the recipient would like﹣he tries to guess her preferences, as economists say﹣and then buying the gift and delivering it．Yet this guessing of preferences is not easy; indeed, it is often done badly．Every year, ties go unworn and books unread．And even if a gift is enjoyed, it may not be what the recipient would have bought if they had spent the money themselves．Interested in this mismatch between wants and gifts, in 1993 Joel Waldfogel, then an economist at Yale University, sought to estimate the difference in dollar terms．In a research, he asked students two questions at the end of a holiday season: first, estimate the total amount paid （by the givers） for all the holiday gifts you received; second, apart from the sentimental value of the items, if you did not have them, how much would you be willingto pay to get them? His results were gloomy: on average, a gift was valued by the recipient well below the price paid by the giver．In addition, recipients may not know their own preferences very well．Some of the best gifts, after all, are unexpected items that you would never have thought of buying, but which turn out to be especially well picked．And preference can change．So by giving a jazz CD, for example, the giver may be encouraging the recipient to enjoy something that was ignored before．This, a desire to build skills, is possibly the hope held by many parents who ignore their children's desires for video games and buy them books instead．Finally, there are items that a recipient would like to receive but not purchase．If someone else buys them, however, they can be enjoyed guilt﹣free．This might explain the high volume of chocolate that changes over the holidays．Thus, the lesson for gift﹣givers is that you should try hard to guess the preference of each person on your list and then choose a gift that will have a high sentimental value．（1）The word"sentimental"in Paragraph 3is close to"________"．A intelligentB emotionalC socialD practical．（2）According to the text，which of the following statements is TRUE？________A Price is nothing but the factor when you give gifts．B Chocolates will be blamed when people receive them as gifts．C The receivers often overestimate the values of gifts．D Wants do not always correspond to needs in gift﹣giving．．（3）Which of the following statements can be inferred from the text？________A The gift﹣giver tries to neglect the actual needs of the receiver．B The best gifts are well picked by the givers．C In gift﹣giving，guessing preference is often a failure，so it's the thought that counts．D You have to take money into consideration when giving a gift．．（4）The text is most likely taken from a________．A users'handbookB medical journalC travel magazineD consumer﹣related report．5. 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项．选项中有两项为多余选项．Many of us feel sleepy in winter，but other species often take it a step further and hibernate （冬眠）．（1）_______The body slows down and breathing，temperature and metabolic and heart rate all decrease．Dormice （睡鼠） head underground and hedgehogs （刺猬）hunker down in their nests．Hibernation seems to do them good．But human cannot bed down for long periods．（2）_______ To work out why we do not，first we need to find out why animals do．The most obvious reason for hibernating is to avoid the cold．Conditions are harsh and there is little food to eat，as fewer plants are growing．（3）_______ Then they live off body﹣fat reserves until it's time to wake up．But a 2015study of dormice found that they continued hibernating even when cold conditions had ended．（4）_______The key issue seemed to be connected with their mainfood：beech trees．The dormice need their seeds to reproduce，or for the baby dormice to gain enough body fat．In a harvest year，they produce plenty of seeds．Somehow the dormice could predict it．Otherwise，they stop reproduction these years and increase their survival by staying underground．（5）_______By staying out of sight，the dormice avoided being hunted by their predators（天敌） like owls．Until recently people thought hibernation was just about energy saving，a defense against cold weather and food shortage，and now we think it's more predator avoidance．The survival rates in hibernation are close to 100%．A．So obviously there are other reasons．B．They were hibernating underground to save energy．C．Hibernation is an extended period of energy﹣saving state．D．All kinds of animals hibernate，from insects to birds and primates．E．Why，if it is so beneficial，do we not hibernate？F．The dormice had another reason to stay underground．G．So many animals fatten themselves up during summer．英语知识运用（共2小题，满分45分）6.

AShyness is the cause of much unhappiness for a great many people. Shy people are anxious and self-conscious; that is, they are excessively concerned with their own appearance and actions.Worrisome thoughts are constantly occurring in their minds: what kind of impression am I making? Do they like me? Do I sound stupid? Am I wearing unattractive clothes? It is obvious that such uncomfortable feelings must negatively affect people. A person's conception of himself or herself is reflected in the way he or she behaves, and the way a person behaves affects other people's reactions. In general, the way people think about themselves has a profound effect on all areas of their lives.Shy people, having low self-esteem, are likely to be passive and easily influenced by others. They need reassurance that they are doing "the right thing." Shy people are very sensitive to criticism; they feel it confirms their feelings of inferiority. They also find it difficult to be pleased by compliment with a statement like this one, "You're just saying that to make me feel good. I know it's not true." It is clear that while self-awareness is a healthy quality, overdoing it is harmful.Can shyness be completely eliminated, or at least reduced? Fortunately, people can overcome shyness with determined and patient efforts in building self-confidence. Since shyness goes hand in hand with a lack of self-esteem, it is important for people to accept their weaknesses as well as their strengths. Each one of us is a unique, worthwhile individual, interested in our own personal ways. The better we understand ourselves, the easier it becomes to live up to our full potential. Let's not allow shyness to block our chances for a rich and fulfilling life.1. The first paragraph is mainly about _______.A. the cause of shynessB. the feeling of shy peopleC. the effect of shyness on peopleD. the question in the minds of shy people2. According to the writer, self-awareness is __________.A. harmful to peopleB. a healthy qualityC. the cause of unhappinessD. a weak point of shy people3. What is the shy people’s reaction to p raise?A. They are pleased by it.B. They feel they are worthy of it.C. They are very sensitive to it.D. They feel it is not true.4. What can learn from the passage that shyness can _______.A. be overcome with determinationB. help us to live up to our full developmentC. enable us to understand ourselves betterD. have nothing to do with lack of self- respectBThe First TryEvery girl dreams and Li Xie is no exception. She has read dozens of books on how to be a ballerina(芭蕾舞女演员). “Swan Lake” is her f avorite. She hopes one day her dream will come true. She has taken ballet lessons and all her teachers confirm she is a good student.One day she saw an advertisement that a famous ballerina group will be performing in her hometown. "I must meet up with the leader of the group and show him my skills," she whispered to herself. She dressed herself and hid in the dressing room. To her luck the leader entered and she timidly (胆怯地) knocked at the door. She bravely approached him and handed him a bunch of red roses. The thorns (刺) hurt her hand but she did not care about the pain. The leader observed her action as she told him her dream. "Alright, you dance and I will give you my conclusion." But half waythrough the dance he stopped her and said, "I'm sorry you're not good enough!" On hearing this Li Xie ran as fast as her legs could carry her and was ashamed. She gave up her dream.Many years later, she heard that the same ballet group was performing in her town again. Bitter memories of the leader's crude words came flooding back to her. This time she was determined to find out why the leader had told her she was not good enough. This was his reply, "I tell this to every student." She angrily shot back, "You've ruined my life! 一Then she got a further shock, ""I remember your gift of roses and how the thorns(刺)had hurt your fingers but you carried on bravery. If you only had treated ballet like that and did not give up so easily; therefore, you still deserve my conclusion! "5. What is “Swan Lake”?A. a kind of foodB. a songC. a balletD. a book6. Why did Li Xie go to meet up with the leader of the group?A. She wanted to join the group.B. She wanted to give him a gift.C. She wanted to see the performance.D. She wanted to show him her skills.7. What do you think of Li Xie?A. positiveB. weak-willedC. cleverD. determinedCLast year, the most-read children' s books at least in UK were almost all fantasy novels. But why is this the case? What. exactly does fantasy offer to young readers？What' s important to point out here is that fantasy writing has come to be considered as belonging to popular culture, and is therefore generally regarded as being of lower quality than realism.This idea was formed in me during childhood by my mother, who believed that fantasy was "rubbish". She was always trying to persuade my two brothers to let go of their dog-eared copies of American author David Eddings' books and read something "proper".I had also met some people who were against reading fantasy. While living in Finland, where I joined a book club, I was told at my first meeting that the club didn't read "genre" books, which meant that realism was in", but everything else including fantasy was " When it comes to the subject of children, discussions about which books are"better" for them often focus on the fantasy and realism debate, causing Professor John Stephens to write that: one of the more curious sides to the criticism of children's literature is the strong wish to separate fantasy and realism into competing types, and to state that children prefer one or the other, or "progress" from fantasy to realism or vice versa （反之亦然).A quick survey of the big children's publishing trends over the past ten years confirms that fantasy is as popular as ever in the children' s book scene. From the 450 million copies of Harry Potter books sold over this period to the more recent Stephenie Meyer's Twilight series, it would seem that children are as enthusiastic about fantasy as ever before and rather than "progressing" out of fantasy, the popularity of fantasy in the young adult market would suggest just the opposite.8. What was the author's mother's attitude towards fantasy?A. Uncaring.B. Cautious.C. Unfavorable.D. Enthusiastic.9. The book club the author joined in Finland ________A. didn't have a realistic aimB. was always full of people in and outC. had a tense atmosphere in most casesD. was not acceptive of various literature styles10. According to Professor John Stephens, the critics of children's literatureA. want to separate children into different groups.B. want to divide fantasy and realism into separate groupsC. aim to get children to progress from fantasy to realismD. wish to explore the difference between fantasy and realism11.
