It was a scene that had been repeated many times in the theater’s 75-year history. This time, however, the cleanup was a little different. As one group of workers carried out the rubbish, another group began removing seats and other theater equipment in preparation for the building’s end.The film classic The Last Picture Show was the last movie shown in the old theater. Though the movieis 30 years old, most of the 250 seats were filled with teary-eyed audience wanting to say good-bye to the old building. Theater owner Ed Bradford said he chose the movie because it seemed appropriate. The movie is set in a small town where the only movie theater is preparing to close down.Bradford said that large modern theaters in the city made it impossible for the Plaza to compete. He added that the theater’s location(位置) was also a reason. "This used to be the center of town,"he said. "Now the area is mostly office buildings and warehouses."Last week some city officials suggested the city might be interested in turning the old theater into a museum and public meeting place. However, these plans were abandoned because of financial problems. Bradford sold the building and land to a local development firm, which plans to build a shopping complex on the land where the theater is located.The theater audience said good-bye as Bradford locked the doors for the last time. After 75 years the Plaza Theater had shown its last movie. The theater will be missed.4. In what way was yesterday’s cleanup at the Plaza special?A. It made room for new equipment.B. It signaled the closedown of the theater.C. It was done with the help of the audience.D. It marked the 75th anniversary of the theater.5. Why was The Last Picture Show put on?A. It was an all-time classic.B. It was about the history of the town.C. The audience requested it.D. The theater owner found it suitable.6. What will probably happen to the building?A. It will be repaired.B. It will be turned into a museum.C. It will be knocked down.D. It will be sold to the city government.7. What can we infer about the audience?A. They are disappointed with Bradford.B. They are sad to part with the old theater.C. They are supportive of the city officials.D. They are eager to have a shopping center.CSpring is a wonderful season to celebrate rebirth and new life. The long,cold winter is over. The weather is warmer and sunnier. The trees again have leaves and the flowers are blooming. The season represents hope,joy and beauty. At this time,many people think of this classical music piece—Spring,which shows happiness. Italian composer Antonio Vivaldi wrote it in the seventeen hundreds.However,not all songs about spring are happy. This song written and sung by K.D. Lang is about dreaming of spring in cold dark places. She recorded I Dream of Spring in 2008.Richard Rodgers and Oscar Hammerstein wrote It Might as Well Be Spring for the movie State Fair in 1945.Frank Sinatra sings it. It is a feeling of restlessness or excitement brought on by the coming of spring. Richard Rodgers also wrote Spring Is Here,this time with Lorenz Hart. Ella Fitzgerald sings this song about feeling lonely during this season.Frank Loesser wrote the sad song,Spring Will Be a Little Late This Year. Why has the season been delayed? Because the singer's lover has left her. Sarah Vaughn released(发行) her version of the song in 1953.By now you may be thinking,“Enough with the sad songs,already!”OK,then how about a cowboy song? Gene Autry was one of the America's most famous singing cowboys. He recorded When It's Springtime in the Rockies in 1937.And finally,we'll leave you with a sunny song called Up Jumped Spring. Freddie Hubbard wrote this jazz song in 1977 and Billy Taylor Trio performs it.8. If you are in a bad mood,you'd better listen to________.A.Up Jumped SpringB.I Dream of SpringC.Spring Is HereD.Spring Will Be a Little Late This Year9. It Might as Well Be Spring is a song that________.A.is also called State FairB.is sung by Ella FitzgeraldC.has a lonely feelingD.was written by two people10. According to the passage,which of the following is TRUE?A.Most songs about spring are written by Italian composers.B.K. D. Lang was good at writing happy songs.C.Sarah Vaughn sang the song Up Jumped Spring first.D.Gene Autry was a famous cowboy singer before K.D. Lang.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。

Alan Kaufman has thought up the “Nubrella”, which means “new”+ “umbrella”. It is the first truly hands-free umbrella in the world. The inventor says that it stops rain,wind and snow and can keep your head, face and hair dry.“I never planned to invent a product. I just noticed a problem and thought up a solution,” said the inventor.The idea for the invention began on one rainy day. Mr. Kaufman was standing in one of his stores. He began to look at people’s umbrellas. He found that they had to try very hard to keep their umbrellas in the right place. At that moment an idea came into his mind. He ran to his desk and drew a picture. In this way, the Nubrella was born.One cool feature of the Nubrella is that you don’t hold it like a usual umbrella, you wear it. The shoulder straps(肩带) of the Nubrella allow people to be fully hands-free, so when walking in the rain with the Nubrella, you are able to use your cell phone or drink a hot cup of coffee. Also, the Nubrella will never be inverted(颠倒) in the wind. The new umbrella is far safer than traditional ones, because it has no sharp points.21. “Nubrella” is a kind of umbrella.A. usualB. hands-freeC. traditionalD. paper22. How can you use t he “Nubrella”?A. You can wear the shoulder straps of the Nubrella.B. You can put the Nubrella on your head.C. You can use your hands to control it.D. You can put it on your bike.23. Which of the following is NOT right?A. “Nubrella” means “new”+ “umbrella”.B. The idea of the new umbrella came from the rainy day.C. When you are walking in the rain, you’d bett er take the Nubrella.D. If you go out with the Nubrella in the rain, you’d better drink a hot cup of coffee.24. It can be learned from the passage that .A. Alan Kaufman often uses umbrellas in everyday lifeB. the new kind of umbrella was invented by an umbrella store ownerC. the inventor thought for a long time before inventing the NubrellaD. you can do other things with your hands when using the Nubrella25.
