The increasingly popular“design museums”that are opening today, however, perform quite a different role. Unlike most art museums, the design museum shows objects that are easily found by the general public. These museums sometimes even place things like fridges and washing machines in the center of the hall.People have argued that design museums are often made use of as advertisements for new industrial technology. But their role is not simply a matter of sales—it is the honoring of excellently invented products. The difference between the window of a department store and the showcase in a design museum is that the first tries to sell you something, while the second tells you the success of a sale.One advantage of design museums is that they are places where people feel familiar with the exhibits. Unlike the average art museum visitors, design museum visitors seldom feel frightened or puzzled. This is partly because design museums clearly show how and why mass-produced products work and look as they do, and how design has improved the quality of our lives. Art museum exhibits, on the other hand, would most probably fill visitors with a feeling that there is something beyond their understanding.In recent years, several new design museums have opened their doors. Each of these museums has tried to satisfy the public’s growing interest in the field with new ideas. London’s Design Museum, for example, shows a collection of mass-produced objects from Zippo lighters to electric typewriters to a group of Italian fish-tins. The choices open to design museums seem far less strict than those to art museums, and visitors may also sense the humorous part of our society while walking around such exhibits as interesting and unusually attractive toys collected in our everyday life.36. Showcases in design museums are different fromstore windows because they .A. show more technologically advanced productsB. help increase the sales of productsC. show why the products have sold wellD. attract more people than store windows do37. The author believes that most design museumvisitors .A. do not admire mass-produced productsB. are puzzled with technological exhibitsC. dislike exhibits in art museumsD. know the exhibits very well38. The choices open to design museums .A. are not as strict as those to art museumsB. are not aimed at interesting the publicC. may fail to bring some pleasure to visitorsD. often contain precious exhibits39. What’s the best title for this passage?A. The Forms of Design MuseumsB. The Exhibits of Design MuseumsC. The Nature of Design MuseumsD. The Choices Open to Design MuseumsBThe opera house in Santa Fe, New Mexico, is one of the most beautiful opera houses in the United States. It is small and open, with one roof (屋顶)over the stage where singers perform and another roof over part of the audience. This opera house in the mountain is one of the best in the country, which may seem surprising because performances are only given during seven weeks in the summer, and because Santa Fe is a very small city.Every year the Santa Fe Opera attracts many excellent young singers. They all hope to sing in famous opera houses like Metropolitan in New York someday, and they work hard to become well-known during the summer. The musicians and directors are experts who come from the best orchestras and operas in the country for their vacations. They enjoy working there because they like to live in Santa Fe, which is near both mountains and desert. It is very beautiful there in summer.The state government of New Mexico advertises the Sante Fe Opera in newspapers all over the country, and a great many tourists come to New Mexico for the opera. Most of the audience come from Santa Fe and other nearby cities, and all the seats in the theater are sold out for every show.The only one thing that some people do not like about the Santa Fe Opera is the cold weather. Because the theater is open, performances can not start before it gets dark at nine o’clock in the evening when the mountain air becomes very cool. Sometimes people complain about the cold air, but because the operas are good, these people come back again, wearing warm coats.40. The underlined word“which”in the first paragraphrefers to .A. the building of the opera house in Santa FeB. the fact that the roof is over part of the audienceC. the fact that this mountain opera house is one ofthe best in the countryD. the design of the opera house41.

It originated in the 6th century. The ancient people cut paper into animals or people. They either buried them with the dead or burned them at funerals, wishing that the things the paper stood for could be with the dead. Later, they were used during festivals to decorate gates and windows. After hundreds of years of development, they have now become a very popular means of decoration among country folk, especially women.It is easy to learn how to cut a piece of paper but very difficult to master it to perfection. Beginners need only a knife and paper. For a craftswoman, knives of various types are required to make complicated patterns. It can be one piece of paper or many pieces. Simple patterns can be cut with a knife. For complicated patterns, people first paste the pattern on the paper and then use various kinds of knives to make it. No mistake can be made during the process, otherwise the work will fail.Paper-cutting covers nearly all topics, from flowers, birds, animals, legendary people, and figures in classic novels to types of facial make-up in Peking Opera. Paper-cutting has various styles in different parts of China.In the past, women living in the countryside gathered in their free time to make paper-cuttings, which was a way to judge their skills. As society develops, fewer and fewer people are learning this skill though there are some who still regard it as a profession. At present, there are factories and associations for paper-cutting in China. Exhibitions and exchanges are held regularly and books about it are published. Paper-cutting has changed from a decoration to a kind of art. At the same time, paper-cutting also appears in cartoons, on stage, in magazines and in TV series.47. What is the passage mainly about?A. Funerals in ancient China.B. How to make paper-cuttings.C. A special kind of art form in China.D. Decoration of festivals in ancient China.48. Why did the ancient people burn paper animals orpeople at funerals?A. They thought the dead liked the paper-cuttings.B. They wanted to show respect for the dead.C. They wanted them to accompany the dead.D. They wanted the dead to use them asdecorations.49. If a mistake is made during the process ofpaper-cutting, .A. you have to correct it after you finish thepaper-cuttingB. you can use various kinds of knives to correct itC. all the work you have done will be wastedD. it doesn’t affect the work50. From the passage, we can learn that .A. it is very easy to become a paper-cutting artistB. perfect paper-cutting requires great patienceand skillC. paper-cutting is limited to some topicsD. paper-cutting only has a few fixed stylesⅣ.任务型阅读(共10小题；每小题1分，满分10分) 阅读下面的短文，根据所读内容在表格中的空白处填入恰当的单词。

Pruning involves the cutting away of overgrown and unwanted branches , and the inexperienced gardener can be encouraged by the thought that more damage results from doing it unnecessarily than from leaving the tree to grow in its own way .First , pruning may be done to make sure that trees have desired shape or size . The object may be to get a tree of the right height , and at the same time to help the growth of small side branches , which will thicken its appearance or give it a special shape . Secondly , pruning may be done to make the tree healthier . You may cut out diseased or dead wood , or branches that are rubbing against each other and thus cause wounds . The health of a tree may be encouraged by removing branches that are blocking up the center and so preventing the free movement of air .One result of pruning is that an open wound is left on the tree and this provides an easy entry for disease , but it is a wound that will heal (愈合) . Often there is a race between the healing and the disease as to whether the tree will live or die , so that there is a period when the tree is at risk . It should be the aim of every gardener to reduce that risk of death as far as possible . It is important to make the area , which has been pruned , smooth and clan , for healing will be slowed down by roughness . You should allow the cut surface to dry for a few hours and then paint it with one of the materials available from garden shops produced especially for this purpose . Pruning is usually done in winter , for then you can see the shape of the tree clearly without interference (妨碍) from the leaves and also it is very unlikely that the cuts you make will bleed . If this does happen , it is , of course , impossible to paint them properly .26．Why should running be done ?A．To make the tree grow taller . B．To improve the shape of the tree .C．to get rid of the small ranches . D．To make the small branches thicker . 27．Trees become unhealthy if the gardener .A．To help a wound to dry .B．To cover a rough surface .C．damages some of the small side branchesD．Allows too many branches to grow in the middle28．Why is a special material painted on the tree ?A．To help a wound to dry . B．to cover a rough surface .C．To make a wound smooth . D．To prevent disease entering a wound . 29．A good gardener prunes a tree .A．several times throughout the year B．as quickly as possibleC．occasionally when necessary D．regularly every winter30．What was the author’s purpose when writing this passage ?A．To discuss different methods of pruning .B．To introduce some common knowledge of pruning .C．To explain how trees develop disease .D．To give practical instruction for pruning a tree .第二节信息匹配（共5小题，每小题2分，满分10分）下面是一篇报纸上的文章，请将标有A—E的段落插入文章中标号为61—65的适合位置，使这篇文章意义完整，结构连贯。

The increasingly popular“design museums”that are opening today, however, perform quite a different role. Unlike most art museums, the design museum shows objects that are easily found by the general public. These museums sometimes even place things like fridges and washing machines in the center of the hall.People have argued that design museums are often made use of as advertisements for new industrial technology. But their role is not simply a matter of sales—it is the honoring of excellently invented products. The difference between the window of a department store and the showcase in a design museum is that the first tries to sell you something, while the second tells you the success of a sale.One advantage of design museums is that they are places where people feel familiar with the exhibits. Unlike the average art museum visitors, design museum visitors seldom feel frightened or puzzled. This is partly because design museums clearly show how and why mass-produced products work and look as they do, and how design hasimproved the quality of our lives. Art museum exhibits, on the other hand, would most probably fill visitors with a feeling that there is something beyond their understanding.In recent years, several new design museums have opened their doors. Each of these museums has tried to satisfy the public’s growing interest in the field with new ideas. London’s Design Museum, for example, shows a collection of mass-produced objects from Zippo lighters to electric typewriters to a group of Italian fish-tins. The choices open to design museums seem far less strict than those to art museums, and visitors may also sense the humorous part of our society while walking around such exhibits as interesting and unusually attractive toys collected in our everyday life.36. Showcases in design museums are different fromstore windows because they .A. show more technologically advanced productsB. help increase the sales of productsC. show why the products have sold wellD. attract more people than store windows do37. The author believes that most design museumvisitors .A. do not admire mass-produced productsB. are puzzled with technological exhibitsC. dislike exhibits in art museumsD. know the exhibits very well38. The choices open to design museums .A. are not as strict as those to art museumsB. are not aimed at interesting the publicC. may fail to bring some pleasure to visitorsD. often contain precious exhibits39. What’s the best title for this passage?A. The Forms of Design MuseumsB. The Exhibits of Design MuseumsC. The Nature of Design MuseumsD. The Choices Open to Design MuseumsBThe opera house in Santa Fe, New Mexico, is one of the most beautiful opera houses in the United States. It is small and open, with one roof (屋顶)over the stage where singers perform and another roof over part of the audience. This opera house in the mountain is one of the best in the country, which may seem surprising because performances are only given during seven weeks in the summer, and because Santa Fe is a very small city.Every year the Santa Fe Opera attracts many excellent young singers. They all hope to sing in famous opera houses like Metropolitan in New York someday, and they work hard to become well-known during the summer. The musicians and directors are experts who come from the best orchestras and operas in the country for their vacations. They enjoy working there because they like to live in Santa Fe, which is near both mountains and desert. It is very beautiful there in summer.The state government of New Mexico advertises the Sante Fe Opera in newspapers all over the country, and a great many tourists come to New Mexico for the opera. Most of the audience come from Santa Fe and other nearby cities, and all the seats in the theater are sold out for every show.The only one thing that some people do not like about the Santa Fe Opera is the cold weather. Because the theater is open, performances can not start before it gets dark at nine o’clock in the evening when the mountain air becomes very cool. Sometimes people complain about the cold air, but because the operas are good, these people come back again, wearing warm coats.40. The underlined word“which”in the first paragraphrefers to .A. the building of the opera house in Santa FeB. the fact that the roof is over part of the audienceC. the fact that this mountain opera house is one ofthe best in the countryD. the design of the opera house41.

It originated in the 6th century. The ancient people cut paper into animals or people. They either buried them with the dead or burned them at funerals, wishing that the things the paper stood for could be with the dead. Later, they were used during festivals to decorate gates and windows. After hundreds of years of development, they have now become a very popular means of decoration among country folk, especially women.It is easy to learn how to cut a piece of paper but very difficult to master it to perfection. Beginners need only a knife and paper. For a craftswoman, knives of various types are required to make complicated patterns. It can be one piece of paper or many pieces. Simple patterns can be cut with a knife. For complicated patterns, people first paste the pattern on the paper and then use various kinds of knives to make it. No mistake can be made during the process, otherwise the work will fail.Paper-cutting covers nearly all topics, from flowers, birds, animals, legendary people, and figures in classic novels to types of facial make-up in Peking Opera. Paper-cutting has various styles in different parts of China.In the past, women living in the countryside gathered in their free time to make paper-cuttings, which was a way to judge their skills. As society develops, fewer and fewer people are learning this skill though there are some who still regard it as a profession. At present, there are factories and associations for paper-cutting in China. Exhibitions and exchanges are held regularly and books about it are published. Paper-cutting has changed from a decoration to a kind of art. At the same time, paper-cutting also appears in cartoons, on stage, in magazines and in TV series.47. What is the passage mainly about?A. Funerals in ancient China.B. How to make paper-cuttings.C. A special kind of art form in China.D. Decoration of festivals in ancient China.48. Why did the ancient people burn paper animals orpeople at funerals?A. They thought the dead liked the paper-cuttings.B. They wanted to show respect for the dead.C. They wanted them to accompany the dead.D. They wanted the dead to use them asdecorations.49. If a mistake is made during the process ofpaper-cutting, .A. you have to correct it after you finish thepaper-cuttingB. you can use various kinds of knives to correct itC. all the work you have done will be wastedD. it doesn’t affect the work50. From the passage, we can learn that .A. it is very easy to become a paper-cutting artistB. perfect paper-cutting requires great patienceand skillC. paper-cutting is limited to some topicsD. paper-cutting only has a few fixed stylesⅣ.任务型阅读(共10小题；每小题1分，满分10分) 阅读下面的短文，根据所读内容在表格中的空白处填入恰当的单词。

A★★☆☆☆September 30， 2011Skunk Scooters100 Caldwell StreetOmaha， NE 68102To Whom It May Concern:On August 27， 2011, I ordered a Skunk Scooter from your website、 I was very excited when the motorcycle arrived because I bought it with the money I saved from doing part-time jobs over the summer vacation、 Unfortunately， I have experienced several problems with my Skunk Scooter、First of all, the front wheel always shakes from side to side， making the scooter difficult to control、 Also， it makes an unpleasant sound as the wheel works、 The sound is much louder than a car engine、 The instructions say we should tighten the screws (螺丝)、 My mom and I did that、 However, it did not help at all、 In addition， something is wrong with the handlebars (手把)、 According to your website, they can be easily raised to a height of thirty—six inches、 This does not seem to be true of the Skunk Scooter I received、 The handlebars are set at thirty inches, and they cannot be raised or lowered、 It appears that the knob （球形把手) that is used to change the height is pushed into the handlebars, which makes it impossible to turn in either direction、 It is extremely uncomfortable to ride the motorbike with its handlebars in such a low position、Although you advertised the Skunk Scooter as “the quickest， coolest scooter on the planet，" it makes me feel very disgruntled、 I am expecting that the repair of the scooter would be done at the earliest or else I want my money back、I know that you would not want customers to keep broken products、 Therefore, I would like to thank you in advance for taking the trouble to solve the problem、Sincerely，Natasha Greene21、 The text is probably written by a _____、A、 repairmanB、 shopkeeperC、 studentD、 salesgirl22、 What's wrong with the front wheel of the scooter？A、 Several screws on it are missing、B、 It is not as big as the website says、C、 It keeps shaking and makes a noise、D、 It cannot turn as fast as the back one、23、The underlined word “disgruntled” in the text probably means “_____"、A、 excitedB、 confusedC、 proudD、 dissatisfied24、 Natasha wrote the letter mainly to _____、A、 demand after-sales serviceB、 send her congratulationsC、 express thankfulnessD、 make an apologyB★★★☆☆Recently, a painting of actress Elizabeth Taylor, which was drawn by American artist and filmmaker Andy Warhol, sold for US $63 million、 Another simple black-and-white image of a Coca—Cola bottle sold for US $35 million、 But the all-time record for a Warhol painting is $100 million for a piece titled “EightElvises"、What’s amazing is not that the pieces sold for so much， but the fact that they are not what you would call traditional art、They are “pop art", art based on simple images of things and people from advertising, movies, music and day—to-day life、Born in the 1920s， Warhol grew up mostly separated from other children due to (由于） health problems、 He spent a lot of his time alone drawing and then went on to study art in college、 He began his career as a

Northern Ireland where wewent for our summer holidays、 To many, he was a mystery、 Every afternoon John would wander to the end of the pier (码头） where he fed the seagulls and delighted in the sound of their excited cries as they flew around his head、Often I asked my family questions regarding John、 Eventually I gave up as no one could tell me anything about him、 As I grew up, my visits to the beach became less frequent, and my memories of John buried in a child’s imagination、 Last year memories came flooding back as I walked along the coastline，where I noticed a lady feeding the seagulls on the pier, and I decided to introduce myself、Then I came to know that the lady was John’s daughter， and after John left this world she carried out the ritual （惯例）, which had held such importance for her father、In some strange way I felt we shared a bond， each needing to remember、In return，Lucy told me of John’s life， his days in the British Navy (海军） during World War I and how he almost lost hope when his ship was attacked by a German U-boat in the North Sea and he found himself in a lifeboat with five others、Close to death, he thought he heard the sound of wings、 He put up his hands, only to catch a seagull that had landed on the side of the boat、 The seagull saved the lives of the six men as it was used to catch fish, which kept them alive until they reached land、This period of John’s life was one he never talked about、But the ritual he first performed as a young man remained a part of him until he died、Now I visit Lucy as often as I can， just to chat or very often walk along the

next two hours、 An important client （客户) has invited him to an open house in celebration of their new downtown office、 He hates these things、He doesn’t know w hat to say，he doesn’t know anyone except the client， and he always feels like he's trying not to look lost、 He sinks deeper into the seat, making a tough decision about when to leave、Casual (随意的） conversation happens at least a dozen times a day、Yet for some of us, many occasions that involve small talk don’t ever get any easier，and may even increase anxiety and cause some people to feel on edge about social events， business lunches， and chance meetings with neighbors、 Unfortunately，as we are suffering our own discomfort, our neighbors, friends, and workmates generally consider us distant， cold, and proud、If your conversations
