11.Still seeking a destination for your weekend break?There are some places which are probably a mere walk away from your college.
King's Art Centre
A day at the Centre could mean a visit to an exhibition of the work of one of the most interesting contemporary artists on show anywhere.This weekend sees the opening of an exhibition of four local artists.
You could attend a class teaching you how to"learn from the masters"or get more creative with paint-free of charge.
The Centre also runs two life drawing classes for which there is a small fee.
The Botanic Garden
The Garden has over 8,000 plant species;it holds the research and teaching collection of living plants for Cambridge University.
The multibranched Torch Aloe here is impressive.The African plant produces red flowers above bluegreen leaves,and is not one to miss.
Get to the display house to see Dionaea muscipula,a plant more commonly known as the Venus Flytrap that feeds on insects and other small animals.
The Garden is also a place for wildlifeenthusiasts.Look for grass snakes in the lake.A snake called‘Hissing Sid'is regularly seen lying in the heat of the warm sun.
Byron's Pool
Many stories surround Lord Byron's time as a student of Cambridge University.Arriving in 1805,he wrote a letter complaining that it was a place of"mess and drunkenness".However,it seems as though Byron did manage to pass the time pleasantly enough.I'm not just talking about the pet bear he kept in his rooms.He spent a great deal of time walking in the village.
It is also said that on occasion Byron swam naked by moonlight in the lake,which is now known as Byron's Pool.A couple of miles past Grant Chester in the south Cambridge shire countryside,the pool is surrounded by beautiful circular paths around the fields.The cries of invisible birds make the trip a lovely experience and on the way home you can drop into the village for afternoon tea.If you don't trust me,then perhaps you'll take it from Virginia Woolf-over a century after Byron,she reportedly took a trip to swim in the same pool.
36.As mentioned in the passage,there is a small charge forB.
A.attending the masters'classB.learning life drawing
C.working with local artists         D.seeing an exhibition
37."Torch Aloe"and"Venus Flytrap"areD.

A.to like walking                B.to fear pet bears
C.to be a heavy drinker           D.to finish university in 1805
39.In the passage Byron's Pool is described as a lakeC.
A.located in Grant Chester         B.owned by Lord Byron
C.surrounded by fields            D.discovered by Virginia Woolf

A.unknown stories of Cambridge University
B.a way to become creative in art
C.the colourful life in the countryside
D.some places for weekend break.

分析 本文属于广告类阅读,文章中提供了三则广告,让大学生的周末假期过得有意义,提供给了大学生们休闲的地方.

解答 36.B  细节理解题,根据第一则广告中最后一句"The Centre also runs two life drawing classes for which there is a small fee."可知在学习生活画中有一个小的费用,故选B.
37.D  细节理解题.根据第二则广告中第二段首句"The multibranched Torch Aloe here is impressive.The African plant…"可知,Torch Aloe是一种植物.根据第三段中"…,a plant more commonly known as the Venus Flytrap that feeds on insects and…"可知,Venus Flytrap也是一种植物.而且它们都是令人印象深刻的植物,故选D.
38.A  细节理解题.根据第三则广告中第一段最后一句"He spent a great deal of time walking in the village."可知,他花了大量时间在村子里散步,因此可看出他喜欢散步,故选A.

40.D  主旨大意题.根据文章首句"Still seeking a destination for your weekend break?There are some places which are probably a mere walk away from your college."可知这三则广告都是提供给大学生周末休闲的.故选D.

"My son is always on the phone,sleepinr g,out with his friends,or in his room.He never has time to talk to
me."The words above show the deep sadness and loneliness of her as well as other old parents.
Nowadays,young men look so busy in modern society that they will never feel free to live or talk with their
parents,even on some festival days.However,to the parents,what they really hope for is that their children can
come to see them just for a little time to give them a frequent telephone call.
The older they get,the more our old parents will feel.However busy we may be,wwe should try our best to
spend more time talking with them and accompanying them.It isnot just because they once gave us so much
selfless love,but it's our duty to look after them well..
