    题目列表(包括答案和解析)

    Looking for someplace to fall in love? Then look no further than Florence—if you want to fall in love with art, that is! Europe’s art capital has more masterpieces per square kilometer than any other place. World-renowned artists Michelangelo and Leonardo da Vinci lived and worked in Florence.

    Walk the streets and admire the centuries old architectural wonders. Gaze at some of the world’s best paintings. Window-shop at the city’s fancy shops. The hardest thing will be deciding what to do first!

    The art of Florence lies not just outside its buildings but inside them, too. Visit the Academia museum to see Michelangelo’s statue of David. A crowd always surrounds the beautiful, 4-meter-tall statue.

    Michelangelo carved it when he was just 26. Unlike most sculptors, he did not make a model of his statue first. He did not draw on the marble to show where to carve, either. He worked freehand. He believed that he was freeing the figure that God had put into the marble.

    Continue your museum tour with the Uffizi gallery. It has the greatest collection of Italian painting anywhere. The paintings are displayed from oldest to newest. You can see how art changed through the centuries. Paintings in Middle Ages looked flat. Once the Renaissance began, paintings began to look 3-D and more lifelike.

    Had enough art? Take some time to earn about the beginnings of modern science in the Science Museum. Here you'll get an over view of technical innovations from the year 1000 to 1900. You can see early clocks, maps, telescopes and scientific experiments.

    Next, move into modern times and take a look in some of the city's shops. Florence is a great palace to shop and has been since Renaissance times. Visit the market in the streets around San Lorenzo. You can find some great deals--but bargain hard.

    1. The passage is mainly about_____________.

    A. the right place that you can fall in love

    B. some of the world's famous arts in Florence

    C. the interesting places to go in Italy

    D. the art capital in Europe

    2. We can infer from the passage that___________.

    A. many famous artists have lived and worked in Florence

    B. artists used to make models to carve statues before Michelangelo

    C. the city is home to Michelangelo's famous statue of David

    D. you cannot only see the oldest paintings but also the newest in this city

    3. The underlined word "world-renowned" in Paragraph 1 means __________.

    A. well-known all over the world

    B. strange to people all over the world

    C. new discovered in the world

    D. popular all over the world

    4. If you want to discover the beginning of science, you should go to_______________.

    A. the Accademia museum B. the Uffize Gallery　 C. Science Museum　 D. San Lorenzo

    5. Which of the following statements is NOT true?

    A. Florence is a great place to shop in modern times.

    B. Art around almost every corner makes Florence a special place~

    C. Paintings began to look more lifelike since Renaissance began.

    D. The beginning of modern science was around year 1000.

    阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中，选出最佳选项。

    　　As a youngster, I liked to stay at my grandfather's farm as there were stone walls around the house, which could provide me endless hours of fun．

    　　Since my first visit to the farm, I wanted to climb them．My parents would never agree．The walls were old and some stones were missing and others loose and falling．However, my idea grew so strong．Then, I had all my courage to enter the living room, where all the adults had gathered．

    　　“I…I want to climb the stone walls, ” I said．At once voices of disagreement went up from the women in the room．“Heavens! No! You'll hurt yourself! ” I wasn't too disappointed because the result was just as I'd expected．But before I could leave the room, I was stopped by my grandfather's loud voice．“Hold on just a minute．” I heard him say．“Let the boy climb the stone walls．He has to learn to do things for himself．”

    　　“Go, ” he said to me, “and come to see me when you get back．” For the next two and a half hours I climbed those walls, and had a good time of my life．Later I met with my grandfather to tell him about my adventures．I'll never forget what he said．“Fred, ” he said, smiling．“You made this day a special day just by being yourself．Always remember, there's only one person in this whole world like you, and I like you exactly as you are．”

    阅读理解

    　　When I first came to America, I made friends with a neighbour who used to live a couple blocks from my street．We used to visit each other, do some activities, and go out together sometimes．This friend taught me a lot about American culture, but in some cases I had to learn the hard way because we didn't have enough time together as friends for me to learn all about American culture from him．

    　　One day this same friend invited me to a party．It wasn't a real party, it was some kind of informal get－together．Since it was summertime he had a cookout where most of his American friends and relatives were known to me, but there were others I had never met before．

    　　It was the most embarrassing party for me when I noticed that everybody was wearing jeans and simple T－shirts for the day, while I arrived in proper dress with my shoes and my hair all fixed for a fancy party．It was hard to explain my embarrassment to the other guests．When one of them turned around and said,“What nice clothes!What's the occasion!”I felt my face burning hot with embarrassment．I did not answer at all．If she knew how bad I already felt, she wouldn't have come near me．But she did．Maybe she didn't ask intentionally to make me feel bad or uncomfortable, but my reaction had to do with the way I already felt．I could have told her I had to go to another party afterward, but I didn't want to continue the conversation．

    　　Many times I thought about going home and changing, but I knew that they would notice．It would be even worse for me, because I knew they would quickly think that I felt out of place．So I wanted to pretend that I was okay．

    　　I had already realized their customs were different from mine, but after I talked to my friend, I was more convinced(感到信服的)that people here are more casual．They care less about formality, unless it is a special occasion, like a wedding or a very formal invitation．

    　　In contrast, my culture is totally the opposite．For instance, in Cape Verdean culture, if a friend invited me to his house on a special day, even if it is not a real party, one should appear well dressed or otherwise the host will be annoyed thinking you are disrespectful to him or the other guests．We do dress casually for going on picnics or on ordinary days, but not normally to go over to a friend's when invited if other people will be there．

    　　After all, I think that my problem at the party wasn't that I wasn't accepted by the Americans; but my feeling was so bad that I couldn't fit in the group even if nobody noticed, because I was the one who discovered the difference in the first place．It does not matter if people dress differently, but I was the only one different in the group．I felt I was the one who should adjust to their customs．After that, I decided to learn more about American culture, so now I don't have as many problems as I've had in the past．

    (1)

    Which of the statements describes the cookout in the story?

    [　　]

    A．

    It was very formal．

    B．

    People wore casual clothing．

    C．

    It took place in a restaurant．

    D．

    There, the author knew all the guests．

    (2)

    This story is mainly about ________．

    [　　]

    A．

    cultural differences

    B．

    living in the United States

    C．

    what to do at a cookout

    D．

    how to dress up in a foreign country

    (3)

    It can be inferred from the story that the author ________．

    [　　]

    A．

    left the cookout early

    B．

    probably didn't enjoy the cookout．

    C．

    never wears blue jeans

    D．

    doesn't like the way others wear

    (4)

    Where does the author come originally?

    [　　]

    A．

    America

    B．

    China

    C．

    Cape Verde

    D．

    the passage doesn't say

    (5)

    Why did the author feel embarrassed at the cookout?

    [　　]

    A．

    He wore more formal clothing than the others attending the cookout．

    B．

    He didn't like the food there．

    C．

    He didn't know anyone there．

    D．

    He was the only foreigner there．

    Don’t go to Kauai. Go to any of the other Hawaiian Islands―Maui, Lanai, the Big Island― but leave Kauai for us. The weather on Kauai is so unpredictable that sometimes it rains all day―in fact, it’s the second-wettest spot on the earth. Yes, there are giant double rainbows all the time, and the sunlight through the clouds is magical. But if you are not interested in these, go somewhere else. You just can’t control the nature on Kauai, and who wants to surrender (屈服) to the nature when you could be at a fine hotel, lying in a comfortable chair next to a swimming pool, with food served upon request?

           So what if Kauai produces surf champions the way Texas produces cowboys? Most of its 300 white-sand beaches are unmarked. Unless you connect with the local people, the hidden spots are hard to find. While Hanalei is the most beautiful town you’ve ever dreamed of, you can forget about discos and clubs. Worse, it doesn’t have one single four-star restaurant. What it does have is the original drive-through places where you pass by a rambutan tree, and pick a piece of fruit.

           Shopping in Kauai? Forget it―unless you are interested in shell necklaces and beautifully carved wood bowls. Kauai is not about pampering. It’s about going natural and finding the nature within you. It’s a do-it-yourself place that offers walking along the coast, diving and swimming in the Pacific Ocean, and lying on the beach.

           Don’t go to Kauai unless you have a lot of time, because there’s only one road, which can be slightly dull. It winds through the beautiful scenery of waterfalls, rivers flowing into the ocean, and taro fields. You have no choice but to look at everything, because the speed limit is 35 m.p.h.

           If you’re not interested in color, don’t bother with Kauai, because that’s what you get―red roads, blue oceans, and a hundred different shades of green. It’s like diving on land. Many people on Kauai believe that this is Lemuria―a lost island in the Atlantic. Can you imagine? Those Hawaiians, surfers, New Agers, and people who love nature and beauty and want a different quality of life―what do they know, anyway? Forget about it―you’re not going to like it. Go somewhere else. Leave Kauai for us.

     

    45. After reading the text, we come to know that it is _____.

    A. a piece of shocking news                      B. an exciting story

    A. is not worth visiting at all                      B. is well worth visiting

    C. is not a beautiful island                          D. is a dangerous island

    48. Who would like to visit Kauai?

    A. Those who love nature.                                B. Those who love city life.

    C. Those who love the comfort in a fine hotel.    D. Those who love going shopping.
