11、 Alma Deutscher, a twelve-year-old girl from England appears to be like any other typical pre-teen. She loves to skip rope, read and play with her younger sister. But this modest youngster, who composed her first musical work at age six, first short opera at age seven, and first full-length opera ba

12、sed on Cinderella at age ten, is anything but average. Though her parents downplay her extraordinary talent, young Alma is being described as “l(fā)ittle Mozart” by the music worldAlmas operatic take on the classic fairy tale, which she began writing at age eight, has a slight twist. Her Cinderella is a

13、 musician who meets her Prince Charming through a song. “In my Cinderella, she sings the beginning of a ballad - but at midnight she flees. Eventually, the prince finds her after asking all the maidens of the land to sing the end of the ballad.”The opera was first performed in Vienna, Australia on D

14、ecember 29, 2016, where the then eleven-year-old skillfully switched between the piano and the violin and receives enthusiastic reviews. The young genius has since performed two new piano works, once in Australia and the other in China.While this may appear to be a lot for someone so young, Alma is

15、not worried. She says, “of course I have to work hard. But all children have to work hard for exams, and at least when I work hard, I work hard for something incredibly exciting, like seeing my whole opera put on stage.Almas musical talent first came to light before she could even talk. Her parents

16、recall that as an 18-month-old toddler, she was able to hum a pitch perfect version of the childrens rhymeTwinkle Twinkle Little Star.However, Almas abilities only gained international attention in 2012, after a family friend posted a video online comparing her to Mozart. The family was suddenly swa

17、mped with media requested and Alma became an overnight star, dubbed “l(fā)ittle Mozart”. This nickname makes her parents unhappy because they believe it puts added pressure on the young girl. They would instead prefer her to be called “a composer and musician”.Alma does not want to be compared to the fa

18、mous artist either, saying, “There was only one Mozart, and I prefer to be little Alma.” Regardless of what she calls herself, the twelve-year-old is changing the world of music forever!1、What do we know about Alma Deutscher?AShe has shown great musical talent from a young age.BShe comes from a famo

19、us musical family.CShe regularly performs the classical music of Mozart.DShe has adapted some famous works of classical music.2、How did Alma get to be widely known?ABy performing on televisionBThrough an online videoCBy putting on an operaDThrough her parents promotion3、What is Almas attitude toward

20、s her success?AShe is still unsatisfied with her performance.BShe is modest about her musical achievementsCShe is uncomfortable with so much pressure.DShe is proud to have become a professional musician.4、What can we infer about Almas parents?AThey are very well-educated people.BThey have made a goo

21、d life plan for Alma.CThey have pushed Alma to take up music.DThey are protective of their daughter.22（8分） Flowers make people happy. And while that might seem obvious, there hasnt been much research to prove the point until now.Some new studies by Rutgers University scientists support the idea stro

22、ngly, and the experts go on to assume that flowers have flourished on this planet, with their beauty evolving in recent thousands of years, partly because humans are so attached to them.In a test, bunches of flowers were sent by florists to 113 men and women in a retirement community. All 113 got fl

23、owers and a notebook, but some got them earlier and received a second bunch when the others got theirs. By now you can guess the outcome. The more flowers, the more smiles.The results of the studies got the scientists to thinking about how the flower industry of today has evolved into growing things

24、 that serve no other purpose than emotional (情感上的) satisfaction. Nature wont even pollinate (授粉) many of the domesticated flowers. Just among roses, there are so many types created by humans that, clearly, flowers arent what they used to be. But its likely our collective hand has played a role longe

25、r than you might think.Geneticist (遺傳學(xué)家) Terry McGuire suggests that natures prettier flowers got to survive and develop well because people didnt destroy them when they cleared for agriculture. Instead, they grew them and have been doing so for over 5,000 years. “Because theyre a source of pleasure

26、, we take care of them. In that sense theyre like dogs. They are the pets of the plant world.” McGuire says.Here is one way that might have worked:Many species of flowers that are now planted used to grow only when the ground was disturbed, McGuire explains. “As humans moved into agricultural settin

27、gs, these flowers would have been weeds.” “These flowers might have been tolerated because of their beauty. The seeds would have been preserved and replanted. Over time, the best of these flowers might have been selected and the seeds more carefully preserved.”1、The underlined word “theirs” probably

28、 means _.AflowersBnotebooksCflowers and notebooksDa second bunch of flowers2、Which of the following statements is NOT TRUE?AWe keep dogs because they make us happy.BPeople grow flowers for thousands of years.CThe more flowers people get, the happier they are.DPeople left all the flowers alive when c

In 2012, he and his family were i

31、nspired to build and donate a bunk bed, one bed on top of the other, after learning there were local children who slept on the floor. Shocked to discover how widespread this need was in his community, Mickelson founded Sleep in Heavenly Peace, a nonprofit that builds and delivers beds to children in

32、 need.Born and raised in Idaho, Mickelson, now 41, had a thriving career. He coached his kids sports teams and fished in the nearby river. But when he met children who were sleeping on the floor, his peaceful life changed course.Using safety guidelines and his daughters bunk bed as a model, Mickelso

33、n started buying wood and supplies to build beds with his own money. He recruited friends and family members to help around the holiday. As word spread, interest and involvement from his and other communities floodedalong with Mickelsons bunk bed output. “That first project, we built 11 bunk beds in

34、 my garage,” he said. “The next year, we did 15. Then it doubled every year. In 2017, we built 612 bunk beds.”With the motto “No kid sleeps on the floor in our town”, the nonprofit and its more than 65 branches have built and delivered more than 1,500 free beds to children across America. But along

35、with the rapid growth, Mickelson was faced with a tough choice: advancing his career or his nonprofit. He chose the latter and went from making “great money to zero money”. Hes never looked back. “I found that the need I have isnt financial,” he said. “The need I have is seeing the joy on kids faces

36、, knowing that I can make a difference.”1、Why did Mickelson set up Sleep in Heavenly Peace?ATo help the poor children.BTo make a big fortune.CTo inspire his community.DTo get more donations.2、What do we know about Luke Mickelson?AHe had his own fish farm.BHe changed his career from time to time.CHe

37、used to sleep on the floor when he was a kid.DHe originally had a relaxing and pleasant life.3、How did other people react to Mickelsons project?AThey showed little interest in it.BThey were supportive and involved in it.CThey were doubtful about the safety of the bunk bed.DThey volunteered to buy be

38、ds with their own money.4、What is Mickelsons attitude to the nonprofit?AAmbiguousBDefensive.CCautious.DPositive.24（8分）The British custom of driving on the left side of the road isnt a sign of eccentricitytheres actually a very sensible reason for it.Originally, almost everybody travelled on the left

39、 side of the road. For Medieval swordsmen on horseback, it made sense to keep to the left to have their right arms closer to their opponents. Mounting and dismounting horses were also easier from the left side, and safer done by the side of the road than in the center.So perhaps the question here sh

40、ould be, why did people stop travelling on the left?Things changed in the late 1700s when large carriages pulled by several pairs of horses were used to transport farm products in France and the United States. In the absence of a drivers seat inside the carriage, the driver sat on the rear left hors

41、e, with his right arm free to use his whip to keep the horses moving. Since he was sitting on the left, he wanted other vehicles to pass on his left, so he kept to the right side of the road.The British Government refused to give up their left-hand driving ways. Meanwhile post-revolution France, und

42、er their left-handed ruler Napoleon, stuck to a permanent move to the right side of the road. As the British and the French were yielding their power across the globe, they insisted that the countries they occupied drive like them. This explains why former British colonies such as Australia, New Zea

43、land and India drive on the left, while former French colonies like Algeria drive on the right.When Henry Ford made his Model T in 1908, the drivers seat was on the left, meaning that for Americans, cars would have to drive on the right side of the road to allow front and back passengers to exit the

44、 car onto the sideway. This influenced a change in many countries, such as Canada, Italy and Spain. However, British drivers remain on the left, and this is highly unlikely to change.1、It can be inferred from Paragraph 2 that in Middle Ages _.Apeople always got on horses from the left sideBpeople al

45、l walked and rode on the left of the roadCpeople never got off horses in the center of the roadDswordsmen felt safer travelling on the left of the road2、Why did people start travelling on the right?AThey used large carriages to transport farm products.BThey had to hold their whips with their right h

46、ands.CThey wanted other carriages to pass on their left.DThey were forced to sit on the back left horse.3、According to the passage, which of the following keep to the left side of the road?ARussia. BIndia.CSpain. DAlgeria.4、Why does the author mention Model T in the last paragraph?ATo introduce a wo

47、rld-famous make of American cars.BTo stress its role in changing the custom of driving.CTo describe its safest design for passengers.DTo explain why the British wont change.25（10分） Every man dreams of having a good car.
