A
In his 402nd anniversary year, Shakespeare is still rightly celebrated as a great language master and writer. But he was not the only great master of play writing to die in 1616, and he is certainly not the only writer to have left a lasting influence on theater.
While less known worldwide, Tang Xianzu is considered one of Chinas greatest playwrights and is highly spoken of in that country of ancient literary and dramatic traditions.
Tang was born in 1550 inLinchuan,Jiangxiprovince. Unlike Shakespeare's large body of plays,poems and sonnets (十四行诗), Tang wrote only four major plays: The Purple Hairpin, Peony Pavilion (《牡丹亭》), A Dream under the Southern bough, and Dream of Handan. The latter three were constructed around a dream narrative, a way through which Tang unlocked the emotional dimension of human desires and ambitions and explored human nature beyond the social and political limits of that time.
Similar to Shakespeare, Tang's success rode the wave of a renaissance (复兴) in theater as an artistic practice. As in Shakespeare'sEngland, Tang's works became hugely popular inChinatoo. During Tang'sChina, his plays were enjoyed performed, and changed. Kunqu Opera, a form of musical drama, spread from southernChinato the whole nation and became a symbol of Chinese culture. Combining northern tune and southern music, kunqu Opera was known for its poetic language, music, dance movements and gestures. Tang's works benefited greatly from the popularity of kunqu Opera, and his plays are considered classics of kunqu Opera.
While Tang and Shakespeare lived in a world away from each other, there are many things they share in common, such e humanity of their drama, their heroic figures, their love for poetic language, a lasting popularity and the anniversary during which we still celebrate them. 1. Why is Shakespeare mentioned in the first paragraph? A. To describe Shakespeare's anniversary. B. To introduce the existence of Tang Xianzu. C. To explain the importance of Shakespeare. D. To suggest the less popularity of Tang Xianzu.
2. What's possibly one of the main theme of Tang's works?
A. Social reality. B. Female dreams.
C. Human emotions. D. Political environment. 3. What does the author mainly tell us in Paragraph 4? A. The influence of Kunqu Opera on Tang's works. B. Tang's success in copying Shakespeare's styles.
C. The way Kunqu Opera became a symbol of Chinese culture. D. Tang's popularity for his poetic language and music.
B
A trip to thelibrary was like a great journey to a different country. To get there, we had to walk a mile. But our weekly journeys to the library were a piece of perfection. I had around me at one time all the people I loved best- my father and mother and brothers and sister- -and all the things I loved best- quiet, space and books.
I read a lot of books about science: not the spaceships my brothers preferred, but the birds and the bees- -literally. I brought home a book of birds and searched the trees for anything other than robins (知更鸟). I went through a phrase of loving books with practical science experiments and used up a whole bottle of white vinegar by pouring it on the sides of our apartment building to prove that it was constructed of limestone (石灰石).
One Saturday, as I wandered through the young adult section, I saw a title: Little Women, by Lousia May Alcott. I had learned from experience that titles weren’t everything. A book that sounded great on the shelf could be dull once you got it home. So I sat in a chair near the shelves to skim the first paragraphs.
I read and read and read Little Women until it was time to walk home, and, except for a few essential interruptions like sleeping and eating, I did not put it down until the end. Even the freedom to watch weekend television held no appeal for me in the wake of Alcott' s story. It was about girls, for one thing, girls who could almost be like me, especially Jo. I had found someone who thought and felt the way I did. 4. What can we say about the author’s family?
A. They enjoyed traveling abroad. B. They were library frequenters. C. They were very fond of walking. D. They led a perfectly quiet life. 5. What does the author mainly want to show in paragraph 2? A. Her different hobbies from her brothers. B. How she conducted science experiments. C. Why she loved books about the birds and the bees. D. Her reading interests during a particular period of time.
6. What opinion does the author hold on books? A. Book titles can sometimes be misleading. B. Science books are as interesting as novels. C. The first few paragraphs of a book are attractive. D. Books seem duller when read in libraries than at home. 7. How would the author describe Little Women? A. It helped her to discover her true character. B. It made her forget about food and sleep. C. It inspired confidence in her. D. It kept her absorbed.
C
Emojis are very popular among mobile phone and social media users. While there are emojis of almost every kind imaginable, from dinosaurs to joyful tears and eggplants, there is no emoji for forgiveness. Seeing the need to show understanding, aFinnish group decided it was time for a \"forgiveness\" emoji.
Every year, the Unicode Consortium, which sets the standards, adds new emojis to the emoji keyboard on mobile phones and computers. In 2019, the Forgivemoji campaign was launched. Forgivemoji's site made an open call to the public to give their designs for a new forgiveness emoji, with the goal of presenting the symbol to the Unicode Consortium and getting it accepted by people.
Tuomo Pesonen, communications director of the Unicode Consortium, explained why the forgiveness emoji isindispensablein today's world. “In our modern communication culture, emojis are an important way of expressing human feelings beyond words.” The campaign gained popularity, reaching over two million people around the world. They received many designs, including a bandaged heart, two holding hands, and people from different cultures hugging.
After hundreds of people offered their ideas for this emoji, the winner was announced in February 2020. Former Finnish president Tarja Halonen was selected to choose the winner as she has been important in building bridges between people. The emoji that will be presented to the Unicode Consortium is an image of two hands giving a thumbs-up symbol in front of a heart. If the Unicode Consortium accepts the design, it will become available to the public in late 2021.
The Forgivemoji campaign goes far beyond having a strong influence on social media. The message of showing forgiveness and understanding is helpful for the world at large.
8. What's the idea behind the Fogivemoji campaign? A. people develop pleasant habits.
B. To get people more friendly to each other. C. To pick a forgiveness emoji for the public to use.
D. To make mobile phones and computers more convenient to use. 9. What does the underlined word “indispensable” in Paragraph 3 mean? A. Necessary. B. Different. C. Changeable. D. Interesting.
10. Why was Tarja Halonen selected to choose the winner for the campaign? A. She launched the campaign herself. B. She designed the most popular emoji. C. She was familiar with the emoji history. D. She played an important role in relating people. 11. What can be the best title for the text? A. Forgiveness is important for people B. Emoji for forgiveness is on the way C. Emojis are becoming interestingly popular D. Finnish people explore the stories of emojis
D
Japan is known to have higher than average rates of stomach cancer. Recently, the town of Kaneyama in Yamagata Prefecture decided to get its 6, 000 residents (居民) tested.
However, the frozen urine samples (尿样) are not tested in conventional ways. Instead, Professor Masao Miyashita and his team are using them in a trial to determine if specially trained cancer-sniffing dogs can accurately detect the disease. Though the study is still in its early stages, Miyashita is thrilled with the results. He said, “In our research so far, cancer detection dogs have been able to find signs of cancer with an accuracy of nearly 100 percent.”
Researchers have known about the animals’ superior sensory skills for decades. However, their ability to detect cancer in humans came to light in 1989, after a dog sniffed out early-stage malignant melanoma (恶性黑色素瘤) on a patient’s leg in London. Since then, scientists from many countries have conducted studies to test dogs’ great skill at identifying cancer chemicals.
While most dogs can be trained for the task researchers say the best candidates are dogs that are precise, quiet, and perhaps even a little shy. The training process is similar to how dogs are taught to learn any trick — by rewarding them with treats! However, it takes much longer because the dogs have to learn to separate the “cancer scent (气味)”from the thousands of organic compounds (有机化合物) in the human body. Researchers begin by exposing the dogs to urine samples from people with cancer, people with other diseases, and patients with no health issues, Once the dogs are able to accurately identify cancer, they are further trained to detect particular kinds of cancer.
Successful as they may be, experts think dogs are unlikely to replace conventional tests. For one, it takes about seven years and costs as much as $45,000 to train a single dog. Klaus Hackner, a researcher and physician who studies dogs detecting cancer in breath samples at Krems University Hospital in Austria, is also not convinced dogs can be relied upon alone. Patients, therefore, have to receive further tests to confirm if they have the disease.
12. What do we know about the cancer-sniffing dogs mentioned in Paragraph 2? A. They have done a great job. B. They are trained in a special way. C. They can easily learn to distinguish cancer. D. They can be seen in many Japanese hospitals. 13. What does the author intend to do in Paragraph 3? A. Offer readers some advice. B. Add some background information. C. Summarize the previous paragraphs. D. Introduce a new topic for discussion.
14. What kind of dog is suitable for the cancer-sniffing job? A. Smart and brave. B. Active and faithful. C. Strong and patient. D. Careful and peaceful. 15. What is Klaus Hackner’s opinion on cancer-sniffing dogs? A. They should work as a team. B. They need to receive more training. C. They can replace doctors in detecting cancer. D. They should be used together with traditional tests.

A year ago, I had one of the most important interviewsof my life.____16____I could say what I thought the members of the interview wanted to hear. I'm so-good at multitasking that I would be able to shoulder the various responsibilities. That might be true, yet it seemed to be unreal. The more honest answer was that I knew it would be difficult, but I wanted to try anyway. ____17____
This tough situation led me to hesitate during the interviews. It also recalled my past experience of being interviewed when an interviewer asked me to give an example of a time when I had been caring. The answer that came to mind was that I volunteered at a nursing home and felt honored to sit with the patients and listen to their stories. But I didn't think that was dramatic enough to impress the interviewers. So, instead I told them about when one of the residents threw up, I cleaned it up.____18____That wasn't caring and it suggested that my best quality was skillful at using mop(拖把)
Back to my most recent interview and the question about how to shoulder the multiple responsibilities of the role.____19____I had learned the significance of being true to myself. So I answered simply, \"With difficulty\". To my relief, the review members nodded knowingly and smiled. This exam can test my honesty and I can come up with appropriate answers.
I've come to realize that interviews don't have \"right\" or \"wrong\" answers. I still see them as exams, but they're not testing my ability to copy somebody else's answers. Actually, the exam is about something I am well familiar with: me.____20____ A. I hesitated but not for long. B. I immediately felt embarrassed. C I wasn't sure which answer to give. D. Never give the interviewers wrong answers. E. It seemed the interviewers were quite satisfied. F. It's not about \"right\" answers but about being yourself.
G. At the end, I was asked how to balance the different parts of the role.

When Farrel was young, he had a Rat Terrier (捕鼠犬). He named it RK, short for Rat Killer. The following is how he came across the dog and adopted it.
That was sometime in the 1930s. He worked in the booth with the projectionist (电影放映员). He liked to see the theater from booth. At that time, people usually took a short break between reel (胶卷) changes. Farrel would take this chance to look at the theater audience. The people were usually talking or making a trip to the bathroom during the breaks. The lights were on, but turned down low. Farrel saw something that shocked him at this time. He actually saw 3 huge rats. They crossed the room and went under the seats. Then the movie was over, and he had to stay behind and clean up. That night he stayed in the projection room and watched from above. He saw several rats running around below. They were so huge that he could see them clearly from above. But when the lights were turned up brighter, the rats all disappeared.
He told the manager what he saw. The manager said that he knew about the rats. But he couldn't use poisons in the theater to get rid of them. So, Farrel suggested introducing some cats to the theater at night. The manager agreed to it and asked Farrel to find the cats. And he also asked Farrel to remove the cats in the morning and any dead rats that might be around.
Farrel found 4 large cats and took them to the theater. The cats were first kept in cages. Farrel thought they were ready for their duties as night “watchmen”. When the movie was over, Farrel opened the cage and released the new “night guards”. He left and headed home with a little excitement running through his mind. He couldn't help thinking about how many dead rats he would find the next morning.
