19、e in black and white and “ newer " movies are in color as if thereis an obvious dividing line between the two. However, as with most developments in art and technology, there isn't an exact break between when the industry stopped using black and white films and when it started using color f

20、ilms. On top of that, film fans know that some filmmakers continue to choose to shoot their films in black and white decades after color films became the standard. Typical examples includeY)ungFrankenstein (1974), Raging Bull (1980), Schindler ' s List93), and The Artist (2011).An often-repeated

21、 but incorrect fact is that 1939's The Wizard of Oz is the first full-color movie. This misconception probably comes from the fact that the film makes great symbolic use of brilliant color film after the first scene is shown in black and white. However, color movies were being created more than

22、35 years before The Wizard of Oz!One of the most important developments in color films was Kinemacolor, created by Englishman George Albert Smith in 1906. Kinemacolor movies projected film through red and green filters （ 過濾器）to reproduce the actual colors used in the film. The first film to use the

23、Kinemacolor process was Smith 's 1908 travelogueA Visit to the Seaside. Kinemacolor was the most popular in its nativeUK,but the cost of installing （安裝）the necessary equipment put many theaters off. After years of technical development, by the late 1950s, most Hollywood productions were being sh

24、ot in color. Then, the color film finally became the standard in the filming industry.However, the black and white film still makes its appearance. True, the black and white film has left a long-lasting impact on filming. Still, audiences today always tend to associate the black and white film with

25、classic Hollywood storytelling and also admire the bright colors of early color movies.36. What can we know about color movies?A. They hardly have a clear boundary with the black and white ones.B. They will replace the black and white films sooner or later.C. They lead to the developments in art and

26、 technology.D. They are more popular with film fans. 37. Which of the following is a color film? A. RagingBull.B. A Visit to the Seaside.C.Schindler ' s ListD. The ArtistWhat does the underlined word “ misconception" in Paragraph 2 refer to?A. That The Wizard of Oz was shotin 1939.B. That T

27、he Wizard of Oz is the first full-color movie.C. That T he Wizard of Oz was shown in black and white.D. ThatT he Wizard of Oz took advantage of bright colors.38. What accounted for the failure of many theaters to use Kinemacolor? A. The lack of enough finances.B. The complex process of using colors.

28、C. The difficulty in installing necessary equipment.D. The unsatisfying color effect of Kinemacolor movies.39. What does the author want to convey in the last paragraph?A. The significance of the black and white film.B. The possibility of replacing the black and white film.C. The popularity of the b

29、lack and white film among audiences.D. The applicability of shooting classic stories in black and white.BI needed to get some money so, after Christmas, I took a job in the clothes department at G raham ' s for the first fortnight of the January sale. I can ' t say that I enjoyed it, but it

30、was all experience I'll never forget.I could never understand why there were so many fillings in the sales; where did they all come from? Now I know the secret. Firstly, there is the special winter stock and the stock that people buy all the year round; some of these things are slightly reduced.

31、 Secondly, there are the summer clothes they couldn't sell last year; these are heavily reduced to clear them. Thirdly, there are cheap clothes bought in specially for the sales; these are put out at high prices ten days before the sale begins and then are reduced by 60% in the sale. Clever! Las

32、tly, they buy in “ seconds ” (clothes not in perfect condition) for the sale and they are sold very cheaply.When I arrived half an hour before opening on the first day of the sale, there was already a queue among three sides of the building. This made me very nervous.When the big moment moved to ope

33、n the doors, the security guards, looking less confident than usual, came up to them, keys in hand. The moment they had unlocked the doors, they hid behind the doors for protection as the noisy crowd charged in. I couldn 'believe my eyes: this wasn' shopping; it was a battlefield! One poor l

34、ady couldn' t keep her feet and was knocked over by people puehh砌 fromClothes were flying in all directions as people searched for the sizes, colors and styles they wanted.Quarrels broke out. Mothers were using their small children to crawl through people's legs and get hold of things they c

35、ouldn ' t get near themselves.Within minutes I had half a dozen people pushing clothes under my nose, each wanting to be the first served. Where had the famous English queue gone? The whole day continued like that, but I kept my temper! I was taking money hand over fist and began to realize why,

36、 twice a year, Graham's were happy to turn their expensive store into a battlefield like this.In the sales campaign, people were spending money like water without thinking whether they needed what they were buying. As long as it was a bargain it was OK.You won't believe this but as soon as I

37、 got home I crashed out for four hours. Then I had dinner and went back to bed, fearing the sound of the alarm which would tell me to get ready for the second day of the sale.40. What kind of clothes is likely to be sold 5 % cheaper?A. Last summer's clothes.B. Clothes for winter.C. Clothes bough

38、t in specially for the sales.41. Which of the following statements is TRUE?D. Clothes not in perfect condition.A. Small children enjoyed crawling through people's legs.B. The customers kept their temper while looking for clothes they wanted.C. The customers gave up the queuing, for which the Eng

39、lish are famous.D. The security guards were fearless of the crowd.42. In the author's opinion, why were Graham's happy to make their expensive store into a "battlefield"?A. There were too many clothes and they wanted to clear them in the sales.B. They were eager to show that they w

40、ere clever at doing business.C. They wanted to make more money by having sales.D. They could take the chance to raise the prices of all their clothes.43. The underlined expression "crashed out" means.A. slept soundlyB. chatted with her friendsC. broke downD. dined out44. What would be the

41、best title for the passage?A. The Best Bargain B. Hunting for a JobC. A Pleasant Fortnight D. Sale FeverCDespite living in it, we hardly know exactly how big the Milky Way is. But new research has provided us with an answer. Using a large survey of stars instead of just models （as previous researche

42、rs did）, astronomers have now determined the disk of our galaxy to be 200,000 light years across twice as large as was believed a decade ago.Astronomers know the Milky Way to be a spiral （螺旋狀的 ）galaxy with a flat central disk composedof spiraling arms and a thin outer cloud of stars called the halo

43、（ 光 暈）.Most of the stars are found in the disk, which rapidly thins out at the edges. The size of the galaxy is measured from the point at which the number of stars in the disk significantly drops, so finding disk stars is key to determining the Milky Way size.Coincidentally, disk stars tend to be m

44、uch younger than the halo stars. Since stars gradually build up elements over generations, th e disk stars ' composition can be different from that of the halo stars, allowing astronomers to figure out which stars belong to which population.With a process known as spectroscopy （ 光譜 學(xué)），researcher

45、s studied the chemical composition of over 4,600 stars from two surveys, and mapped out which stars are part of the disk and which belong to the halo. The results clearly show disk stars much farther from the center of the galaxy than before.The researchers still believe the density of stars in the

46、disk gets lower in an exponential （ 指數(shù)的 ）manner just farther away from each other than previously thought. Although the galaxy has been supersized, it is still smaller than its neighbor Andromeda, which measures over 220,000 light years across.While our galaxy is looking larger, it ' s not putti

47、ng on much weight. Because the outer reacheseamuch less dense than the center of the galaxy, the additional area is only thinly populated with stars. These few extra stars are only a drop in the bucket compared to the rest of the galaxy, so overall the mass of the Milky Way remains largely unchanged

48、.45. What has new research found about the Milky Way?A. It's hard to know its size.B. It can be measured by using models.C. It has grown much larger than before.D. It ' s much larger than previoushought.46. Where is the size of the Milky Way measured?A. At the end of the halo.B. At the edge

49、of the disk.C. At the start of the disk stars.D. At the point of the spiraling arms.47. How can researchers distinguish disk from halo stars?A. By studying their chemical composition.B. By measuring their distance to the sun.C. By measuring their weight.D. By comparing their size.48. The underlined

50、part in the last paragraph probably refers to.A. the speed of the stars moving 'B. the weight of the stars in totalC. the number of stars in an areaD. the size of the Milky Way49. What can we infer about the stars in the Milky Way?A. They are unevenly distributed.B. They are heavier than previou

51、sly predicted.C. They make the Milky Way larger than others.D. They mainly stay in the outer ranges of the disk.DHot after “ smart email“ comes “ digital wellness ” , the umbrella term for trying to reduce our addiction to technology - and its grim effects on our health, productivity and politics -

52、by means of that technology itself. One hugely popular app, Forest, displays a tree on your phone when you put it down, which then gradually begins to grow, and is only to die if you pick it back up. Using fire to fight fire in this fashion is an appealing thought. And given the endless data these f

53、irms collect about how we use their products, nobody could be better placed to help us use them more healthily.And yet, increasingly, digital wellness triggers in me a response aware of those kinds of things I meet in bad American reality TV shows. In the shows, some teenagers are sent to the Colora

54、do wilderness to learn self-discipline through self- love. If you hate how much you use your phone, just stop using your phone so much! Relying on Big Tech to help you do so is a problem, for one thing, because of the obvious conflict of interest. However concerned for your wellbeing they might seem

55、, Apple and Google need you to use their products. But it s also funny, as the author Cal Newport explainesd bolnogh.i “ I m a grown man, ” he wrote. “ If I mchecking my phone every five minutes or playing video games instead of paying attention tomy kids, I don't need an existence of a dying tr

56、ee to help me toward better habits. I actually need someone I respect to knock the stupid thing out of my hand and say, Juststop using it! ”To put it differently: digital wellness aims to reduce your dependency on your devices but at the cost of increasing your dependency on the corporations behind

57、those devices. It closes off the idea of a more basic rejection of using them,which may be the right answer for us. More generally, it seems likely to weaken your self-discipline muscle, by giving the job of managing your time and attention to a third party.50. What does the app seemingly want to do

58、 by displaying a tree?A. To go after the design fashion of beauty.B. To ask us to make full use of our phones.C. To encourage us to protect the environment.D. To remind us not to use digital devices too much.51. What do digital wellness and bad reality TV shows have in common?A. They both reveal the dark sides of society.B. They are both self-contradictory in nature.C. They are both popular among young people.D. They both encourage us to reduce phone use.52. What is
