【解析】
本文是一篇说明文,介绍了中华文明的一颗璀璨明珠——客家土楼。
【1】考查定冠词。句意:它以其悠久的历史、独特的风格、精巧的结构、宏伟的规模,被誉为世界上最宏伟的村屋建筑作品,与福建山区客家人的历史息息相关。world是专有名词,要用定冠词修饰,故填the。
【2】考查副词。句意同上,修饰句子用副词,故填closely。
【3】考查固定短语。句意:土屋是由泥土、石头、竹子和木头制成的,所有这些材料都是现成的,用来建造高达6英尺厚的墙壁。be made of表示“由……制成的”,表示制成成品后仍然可以看出原材料。故填of。
【4】考查不定式。句意同上,sth be used to do表示“某物被用来做”,故填to form。
【5】考查介词。句意:它是防风、抗震的房子,冬天比其他的房屋更暖和,夏天比其他的房屋更凉爽。根据“warmer”和“cooler”可知此处表示“比”,故填than。
【6】考查名词的数。句意:土楼除了具有防御敌人的独特功能外,还具有防火、防野兽、采光良好的特点。enemy是可数名词,此处用复数表泛指,故填enemies。
【7】考查时态和主谓一致。句意:这些土楼的惊人之处在于,其中一些已经有700多年的历史了,它们在包括地震在内一些自然元素中幸存下来。陈述的是客观事实,用一般现在时,主语是What is amazing about these earth buildings,谓语动词用第三人称单数,故填is。
【8】考查时态语态。句意:2008年,共有46处福建土楼遗址被联合国教科文组织列为世界遗产。时间状语“In 2008”表明事情发生在过去,46 Fujiantulou sites 与list之间是被动关系,所以用一般过去时的被动语态,主语是复数,谓语动词也用复数形式,故填were listed。
【9】考查非谓语动词。句意:它们是建筑传统和功能的特殊例子,代表了一种特定类型的群体生活和防御组织,与他们的环境保持着和谐的关系。分析句子结构可知此处使用非谓语动词, a building tradition and function与represent之间是逻辑上的主谓关系,表示主动,用现在分词作后置定语,故填representing。
【10】考查形容词。句意同上,修饰名词relationship用形容词,故填harmonious。
注意be made of和be made from都表示“由……制成”,主语为制成品,区别在于: be made of 表示制成成品后,仍可看出原材内料是什么,保留原材料的质和形状,制作过程仅发生物理变化,如:The kite is made of paper.风筝是用纸做的;be made from 表示制成的东西完全失去了原材料的外形或特征,或原材料在制作过程中发生化学变化,在成品中已无法辨认,如:The paper is made from wood.纸是木头做的;Butter is made from milk.黄油是从牛奶中提容炼出来的。

【题目】 Stories are shared in many ways. They are described in books and magazines. They are read around the campfire at night. They are randomly distributed from stand-alone booths. But what else?
To revive (复兴)literature in the era of fast news and smartphone addiction, Short Edition, a French publisher of short-form literature, has set up more than 30 story dispensers (分发机)in the USA in the past years to deliver fiction at the push of a button at restaurants, universities and government offices.
Francis Ford Coppola, the film director and winemaker, liked the idea so much that he invested in the company and placed a dispenser at his Cafe Zoetrope in San Francisco. Last month public libraries in some other cities announced they would be setting them up, too. There is one on the campus at Penn State. A few can be found in downtown West Palm Beach, Fla. And Short Edition plans to announce more, including at the Los Angeles International Airport.
“Everything old is new again," said Andrew Nurkin, the director of the Free Library of Philadelphia, which is one of the libraries that set up the dispensers. “We want people to be easily exposed to literature. We want to advance literacy among children and inspire their creativity.
Here's how a dispenser works: It has three buttons on top indicating choices for stories that can be read in one minute, three minutes or five minutes. When a button is pushed, a short story is printed. The stories are free. They are chosen from a computer category of more than 100,000 original submissions by writers whose works have been evaluated by Short Edition's judges, and transmitted over a mobile network. Offerings can be tailored to specific interests, like children's fiction or romance. Short Edition gets stories for its category by holding writing contests.
Short Edition set up its first booth in 2016 and has 150 machines worldwide. “The idea is to make people happy," said Kristan Leroy, director of Short Edition, “There is too much unhappiness today. ”
【1】What do we know about the stories sent by dispensers?
A.They are expensive.
B.They are short in form.
C.They can be read on smartphones.
D.They are mainly taken from magazine literature.
【2】Where can you find the popularity of story dispensers in America?
A.In paragraph 3.
B.In paragraph 4.
C.In paragraph 5.
D.In paragraph 6.
【3】Which is the main purpose of setting up the dispensers according to Andrew Nurkin?
A.To get rid of people's smartphone addiction.
B.To reduce the financial stress of libraries.
C.To make people have access to literature.
D.To advertise the network literature.
【4】What is the best title for the text?
A.Online Reading: a Virtual Tour
B.Short Edition, a French Publisher
C.Everything Old Will Be Popular Again
D.Taste of Literature, at the Push of a Button

【题目】 Are visible tattoos an invitation to stare at a person? A blog post on LinkedIn titled “But You Asked Me to Stare At Your Tattoos” is causing debate after its author declared that if someone has a visible tattoo, they are inviting attention on themselves.
The magazine columnist Jeff Haden writes that while in a meeting recently, he met a man with a full sleeve tattoo. After looking at his body art for “a couple of seconds”, the man asked Haden, “Would it be easier if you just took a picture?” Haden goes on to write, “You have this huge, colorful, incredibly eye-catching tattoo. And you’re wearing a shirt with unusually short sleeves. It’s like you’re paraphrasing Jack Nicholson in A Few Good Men: ‘You want me to see your tattoo. You need me to see your tattoo.’”
But not everyone who has a visible tattoo thinks about it when getting dressed in the morning, replied some commenters. For those with tattoos, they often become a part of the person. “For most people who have had their tattoos, it isn’t something that you think about with any frequency. I don’t even notice it as ‘different’. It’s just a part of you - like grey hair or a large nose.” Writes Kristen Stine. “People say to me ‘What’s that?’, pointing at my arm. I often get flustered expecting to see a bug when I look down. However, I just see my arm.”
Still others agree with Haden and say that visible tattoos have no place in the workplace. “If you don’t want people to stare, wear a long sleeve shirt in this air-conditioned office. Clearly you want people to stare,” writes Mike Avelar.
Haden closes his piece with the following: “Make a statement with your apparel, your tattoos, your piercings or your actions. I think it’s great. Just don’t get mad when people look for a bit longer than usual… and occasionally even stare. That must be your intention. After all - you invited us to.”
【1】What is the text mainly about?
A.The introduction of a magazine.
B.A hot debate about tattoos.
C.The bad effects of tattoos.
D.The blog of Jeff Haden.
【2】Jeff Haden thinks that ______.
A.more discussion should be made about tattoos
B.people with tattoos hope to attract attention
C.people with tattoos shouldn’t take pictures
D.it’s improper for people to get tattoos
【3】According to Kristen Stine, ________.
A.people needn’t worry about tattoos
B.people with tattoos should cover them
C.tattoos have become important for him
D.he didn’t pay much attention to tattoos
【4】What is Mike Avelar’s idea about tattoos?
A.Air-conditioned offices are fit for people with tattoos.
B.People shouldn’t show tattoos in the workplace.
C.It’s reasonable for people to have tattoos.
D.People with tattoos should be blamed.

【题目】 As recently as 15 years ago, if you wanted to catch up on the news, you could look at a handful of publications or a few nightly programs. And if you wanted to listen to music, you could turn on MTV or fiddle with your radio. People in major cities had more options, because a large population can support specialty shops. 【1】.
Today, as we all know, access to information has exploded. One consequence, according to Toure, a cultural critic writing in Salon, is that the ability of pop culture to unify us-- he refers to the massive interest in Michael Jackson’s Thriller, or Nirvana’s Nevermind--has been eroded, probably forever. Steven Hyden, also writing in Salon, counters that whatever the advantages and disadvantages of a centralized pop-culture authority, the monoculture never actually existed.
【2】 Even when it supposedly existed, its content largely depended on other characteristics of your little corner of the world. In the 1992-1993 school year, I was a student at a multiracial and relatively urban junior high school in California’s central valley. We listened to Salt-n-Pepa, Snoop Doggy Dogg, and Kris Kross, with the latter having inspired a trend in which kids wore their clothes backwards. The next year I was enrolled in a mostly white junior high school in leafy Chiago suburb. One of the houses was famous for having appeared in the 1990 film “Home Alone”; the popular bands were Nirvana, Hole and the Smashing Pumpkins; and the biggest pop-cultural event of the school year was Kurt Cobain’s suicide.
But Toure’s point is about the virtues of common cultural experience. It seems he is recalling centralized media only in so far as it’s a distribution system that fostered ( 促进) that outcome.
【3】 It doesn’t matter whether a record is released by an important label or an indie ( 独立制片人); if it’s online, people can usually find, forward, share and promote it. But what’s interesting and perhaps surprising, given that both Toure and Mr Hyden seem to agree that the old distribution favored big media, is that we still have widely shared cultural experiences. Just think of Barack Obama doing the little hand gesture from Beyonce’s “Single Ladies ” video.
【4】. It’s safe to say that the monoculture never really existed, and that some artists still reach a wide audience, whether we like it or not.
A.That suggests that we like pop culture partly because it’s a shared experience, regardless of quality.
B.However, in vast areas of the world you had to work to get outside the mainstream.
C.Whether you like it or not, “monoculture” is here with us.
D.I think Mr Hyden is correct that the concept of a “monoculture” is a bit of a myth.
E.They see globalization as being the spread of a monoculture, based on western values, which is killing the cultural diversity of the world.
F.And it’s true that the ways we now consume pop culture to some extent level the playing field.

【题目】 Your colleague’s sharp comment keeps replaying in your mind.Two of your students are trapped in a”he said/she said”battle.When you reflect on your emotional reactions,you sometimes get caught up in cycles of negative feelings,which can make you feel even worse.If so,the answer may lie in a skill called”self-distancing”,the ability to take a step back and view yourself more objectively.According to a research,when people adopt self-distancing while discussing a difficult event,they make better sense of their reactions,experience less emotional suffering,and display fewer signs of stress.
But what might self-distancing look like in action? Consider a typical”he said/she said”student conflict where they are each focusing on their own feelings.One is thinking,‘‘I can't believe he did that to me”And another insists.”She really hurt my feelings”However,if you ask them to take the self-distancing,they might step outside of themselves and ask broader questions:”Why was he so hurt in this situation?”or”How did her anger affect him?”
Although this approach may sound too simple to be effective,studies indicate that a change in point of view can have a powerful effect on the way people think,feel,and behave. Here are several different techniques you can try.
First,consider how a thoughtful friend might respond after quietly observing their situation.Besides,avoid using the pronoun”I”.Focus on using third-person pronouns,he,she,they,and they were able to see the stressful event as challenging rather than threatening.Finally,ask yourself,”How would I feel about this one week from now or ten years from now?”This form of mental time travel may be effective because our attention is directed away from our immediate,concrete circumstances.
【1】What is self-distancing?
A.Getting stuck in negative emotions.
B.A stressful situation.
C.A study on relieving emotional stress.
D.Reflecting on yourself objectively.
【2】Which of the following statement uses the techniques of self-distancing?
A.I’m angry with him.
B.How did these two people get to this point?
C.How I wish I could go back to the past!
D.He grabbed my notes,and then,and then…
【3】What is the best title for the passage?
A.Why Self-distancing Matters
B.The Disadvantages of Self-distancing
C.Breaking the Cycle of Negative Reflection
D.Ways to Reflect on Emotional Reactions
