Before he died, he had been working on The Portrait of a Lady by Henry James at the speed of 1,000 words a day.In nearly forty years, Xu published more than 150 translation works andtheories(理论), covering translations from Chinese to English, English to Chinese, French to Chinese and Chinese to French.Xu's passion for translation continued until the end of his life, just like the epigraph of The Peony Pavilion(《牡丹亭》题词)that he translated —“Love once begun, will never end”.()59.

So he had a great interest in literature(文学).②It was not until 1836 that he became famous. His Pickwick Papers came into being. It is about Mr Pickwick and his three friends. They travel around England and get themselves into a lot of trouble. Mr Pickwick is perhaps the greatest comic figure(滑稽人物)in English literature.③Dickens wrote a lot of novels, such as Oliver Twist, David Copperfield and A Tale of Two Cities. He also visited America, Italy, Switzerland, France, and gave readings from his books to huge crowds of people.④People read Dickens’ books and loved him. In many of his novels we can see Dickens’ desire to show up some wrong and put it right. His rich experience,including his bitter(使人悲痛的)early life, was shown in his novels. Perhaps, there is no other writer in England who is so taken to people's heart.⑤Dickens died in 1870. He had asked that his burial(葬礼)should be quite simple, but the whole nation wanted to give him the highest honor. So he was buried in Westminster Abbey. But, as he wished there was nothing on the gravestone except his name “Charles Dickens”.()63. “Pickwick Papers” in the passage may be the name of a ________.A. manB. bookC. newspaperD. comic figure()64. The underlined word “desire” means “________”.A. the strong wishB. dislikeC. the opinionD. tiredness()65. Which of the following is TRUE?A. Dickens led a happy life when he was young.B. Only the poor people liked Dickens and his novels.C. Dickens wrote his first novel at the age of 34.D. There was nothing on Dickens' gravestone except his name.()66. What is the structure of the passage?A. B.C. D.DBallerina tells the story of Félicie, an 11-year-old orphan (孤儿) from Brittany. Félicie dreams of becoming a dancer. She runs away from the orphanage (a home for orphans) with the help of her best friend, Victor. This boy wants to be a great inventor.Together the friends set off for Paris to go after their dreams.In Paris, Félicie makes friends with Odette, who is the cleaner of the Grand Opera Ballet(歌剧院芭蕾舞团). Luckily, Félicie makes her way into ballet classes there. The girls in the class are auditioning(试演) for a part in The Nutcracker. Each day one girl has to leave the group.Félicie must work hard and pour all her love for dance into making sure that she wins the part. She meets many difficulties and must solve many problems.Ballerina is a dance movie about following your dreams and working hard. Children who are interested in ballet and dancing are sure to like it.Very young children may be afraid of some of the scary scenes(可怕的场景). For example, Rudolf and Victor fight; Camille throws Félicie's things away; and Regine Le Haut, Camille's mother, runs after Félicie and says she will kill her. This is why we think it is not a movie for children under 5 years old, and we suggest parents watch together with children aged 5-7 years old.These are the main messages from this movie:You need practise and hard work to improve your skills in dance and sport.You should be kind to your friends and peers(同龄人).()67. Why does Félicie leave the orphanage?A. She likes to stay with Victor.B. She wants to help her friend.C. She dreams of living a rich life.D. She wants to become a dancer.()68.

Humans in the old times used to paint images of people or wild animals on the walls and tops of the caves(洞穴). A study shows that they were not used to improving the living environment, as there were no people living in most of the caves at the time when the paintings were created. Many experts believe that cave paintings must be a way of communicating with others.Today, street art is not often found in art shows. __△__ Street artists use the streets as their art shows to communicate with the public. There are even a few walls around the world where graffiti is welcomed. For example, the famous John Lennon Wall, in Prague in the Czech Republic, was filled with graffiti images from the Beatles' songs. It was popular in the 1980s until the wall was painted over with a new color in 2000.()70. What is the role of cave paintings for experts?A. To tell people the date.B.
