    Tulou, the special residential architecture of Fujian Province was included on the UNESCO’s World Heritage List during the 32nd session of the World Heritage Committee in Quebec, Canada.

    In the fourth century, Han Chinese living in the Central Plains area began to migrate south, gradually gathering in Fujian and forming the Hakka communities. As a defence against enemies, the Hakkas chose to live in compact(紧凑的) communities, and the tulou was their preferred houses. Tens of thousands of such earthen structures were constructed in Fujian Province.

    Most tulous are to be found in the valleys, surrounded by high mountains, and some are in the depths of the great mountains. Most are three to four stories high, and look like circular blockhouses（堡垒）. Rooms on the first floor are used as kitchens, rooms on the second floor are used as barns(谷仓), and rooms on the third and fourth floors are for bedrooms and living rooms. For defensive purposes, the rooms on the first floor have no windows.

    Raw materials for the tulou were obtained locally. Their main building material was a mixture of clay, sand, lime and water, and egg whites, brown sugar and rice water were added as adhesive agents（粘合剂）. It was then mixed to form the walls. Once they dried, the walls were so hard that driving a nail into them would have been difficult. Fir branches, which are extremely strong and do not rot, were used to strengthen them, and many centuries later they have remained their original look.

    Tulous are located in a region where earthquakes happen frequently, and their circular construction helps them resist the regular shocks.

    The proven design even inspired one famous Peruvian architect, who paid several visits to Yongding, to build a tulou back home. Not long after, an earthquake struck only 10 kilometers away, and while all the houses around the earthen building fell down, his tulou remained.

    1.From the passage , we know that Tulou ______.

    A. is a special residential architecture of Han Chinese in Fujian even today

    B. was once the place where the Hakkas chose to live together

    C. stands in the valleys and is also modern people’s preferred houses

    D. looks like circular blockhouses but easy to fall down in the earthquake

    2.Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?

    A. Hakkas built tulous when they lived in the Central Plains area

    B. Raw materials for the tulou were obtained from far away

    C. It is difficult to dig a hole into the walls of the tulou

    D. Fir branches may help them resist the regular shocks

    3.What would be the best title for the passage?

    A. One of UNESCO’s World Heritage List

    B. The Function of Tulous

    C. Yongding County and The Hakkas

    D. The special Earthen Architecture of Fujian

    How to Improve Eyesight Naturally

    Eyes are important for everybody. You must take care and try everything in your hand to keep them in good condition. Here are some of the tips to improve your eyesight naturally.

    1.

    Strain is known to be a factor in many health conditions and eyestrain is no exception. Try meditation, yoga or other methods of stress relief to improve your vision and overall health.

    Try palming.

    Sit upright in a comfortable chair. 2. Cup your hands so that there is no pressure on your eyes. Let your fingers rest across your forehead. There should be no light entering your eyes. Palming should be done for a period of 5 to 10 minutes to start. Palming should be relaxing. It may help to do palming in a darkened room.

    Avoid sugar as much as possible.

    3. It will unpleasantly affect your eyesight, which affects the eyes by producing a larger amount of insulin (胰岛素) in the blood. Therefore you shouldn't be having much fruit juice or something that contains a lot of sugar.

    Exercise your eyes.

    The only exercise most eyes get is that daily rubbing we give them when we're tired or suffering from eyestrain. But eye exercises are actually good for your eyes and can improve your vision. 4. Blink as fast as you can for a few seconds then close your eyes tightly, open and repeat. Do this exercise 3 to 4 times daily.

    Eat healthy.

    You probably hear that statement all the time but eating the right foods are necessary to good health. 5. Foods that are high in fiber, vitamin C, D and beta carotene as well as other vitamins and minerals can help improve your vision. Here are a few foods that can be beneficial to good vision: carrots, eggs, blueberries, spinach, kale, grapes, and fresh garlic.

    A. Reduce eyestrain.

    B. Keep your eyes moist.

    C. Sugar is your eye's worst enemy.

    D. Give your eyes a workout with the following exercise.

    E. You may not be aware that your diet affects your vision but it does.

    F. Close eyes and cover them with the palms of your hands.

    G. Be sure to get plenty of sleep so your eyes don't strain to stay open during the day.

    根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，选项中有两项为多余选项。

    Does this situation seem familiar to you? Your English is progressing well, the grammar is now familiar, the reading comprehension is no problem, and you are speaking quite fluently. 1. .

    First of all, remember that you are not alone. Listening is probably the most difficult job for almost all learners of English as a foreign language. The most important thing is to listen as often as possible. 2. . The Internet is really a useful tool for English students. You can download The RealPlayer from RealMedia.com. The RealPlayer allows you to use the Internet like a radio station.

    Once you have begun to listen on a regular basis, you might still be frustrated by limited understanding. 3. .

    Here is some of the advice I give my students:

    ●Accept the fact that you are not going to understand everything.

    ●Stay relaxed when you do not understand, and try listening to the material for more times.

    ● Do not translate everything into your native language.

    ●4. . Don’t concentrate on details before you have understood the main ideas.

    ● Listen to something you enjoy.

    I remember the problems I had in understanding spoken German when I first went to Germany. In the beginning, when I didn’t understand a word, I insisted on translating it in my mind. This method usually resulted in confusion. 5. . Firstly, translating creates a barrier between the listener and the speaker. Secondly, most people repeat themselves constantly. By remaining calm, I noticed that even if I did not pay much attention I could usually understand what the speaker had said.

    A. What should you do?

    B. Listen for the general idea of the conversation.

    C. But you can’t follow a native English speaker at all!

    D. But listening is a problem for most of the beginners!

    E. So, what you need to do is to find listening resources.

    F. However, after several weeks, I got used to the new environment in Germany.

    G.Then, after the first six months, I discovered two extremely important facts

    Some people make art with paint, and others use pencil or clay. However, Jean Shin makes sculptures that change everyday objects into thoughtful and beautiful works of art. Shin makes art from broken umbrellas, old clothing or computer parts. Her show “Common Threads” is currently at the Smithsonian American Art Museum in Washington, D.C.

    One of the first works in the “Common Threads” exhibit looks like glowing orange cave formations coming out of the floor and ceiling. If you move closer to the sculptures, you realize they are made up of thousands of carefully stacked small plastic bottles for storing medicines.

    Jean Shin made this work, Chemical Balance, by gathering the bottles from friends, family and retirement communities. Like much of Shin’s art, this work is both about individuals and large groups of people. Each personal object once belonged to an individual. But it takes a large community of such individuals to make Shin’s art possible.

    Chance City is made up of more than thirty-two thousand dollars worth of old lottery tickets. People buy tickets in hopes of winning large amounts of money. Shin collected the tickets in New York City and Washington, D.C. over a period of three years. The small pieces of paper are carefully stacked to create buildings. The sculptures were made using no supports, so they could fall over at any time. The work makes a statement about the unsure nature of money and chance.

    Jean Shin was born in 1971 in the Republic of Korea. Her parents moved to the United States when she was six years old. Shin studied art at the Pratt Institute in Brooklyn, New York. She has chosen to make art that takes a long time to create. She says this is because her parents taught her about the value of hard work.

    Other works in “Common Threads” include TEXTile. It is a piece of flowing fabric covered with thousands of old computer keys. Visitors can add to the work by typing their own message.

    Shin’s latest work is called Everyday Monuments. It is made of almost 2,000 sports awards called trophies(奖品). The trophies showed people doing sports like baseball, tennis or bowling. Shin changed the human forms on every trophy so that each is doing an everyday act like cleaning, driving or carrying shopping bags. The sculpture was influenced by many large monuments in Washington which honor important heroes. Jean Shin’s smaller monument celebrates the heroism of people in their everyday actions.

    1.How many works made by Jean Shin are mentioned in the text?

    A. 6. B. 5.

    C. 4. D. 7.

    2.It can be inferred from the text that Jean Shin’s works is _________.

    A. dirty but beautiful

    B. made from rubbish

    C. environmental and meaningful

    D. valuable and natural

    3.Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the text?

    A. Jean Shin’s parents took a long time to teach her art.

    B. Jean Shin created Chance City in hopes of winning large amounts of money.

    C. Everyday Monuments was created to honor important heroes.

    D. Visitors can participate in the creation of the work TEXTile.

    4.Which of the following could be the best title of the text?

    A. The life of Jean Shin

    B. Jean Shin Makes Art from Everyday Objects

    C. Sculptures Made by Jean Shin

    D. Jean Shin’s Latest Work

    I still remember—my hands and my fingers still remember—what used to lie in store for us on our return to school from the holidays. The trees in the school yard would be in full leaf again and the old leaves would be lying around like a muddy sea of leaves.

    “Get that all swept up！” the headmaster would tell us. “I want the whole place cleaned up, at once！” There was enough work there, to last over a week. Especially since the only tools with which we were provided were our hands, our fingers, and our nails. “Now see that it's done properly, and be quick about it，” the headmaster would say to the older pupils, “or you'll have to answer for it！”

    So at an order from the older boys we would all line up like peanuts about to cut and gather in crops. If the work was not going as quickly as the headmaster expected, the big boys, instead of giving us a helping hand, used to find it simpler to beat us with branches pulled from the trees. In order to avoid these blows(殴打), we used to bribe(贿赂) the older boys with the juicy cakes we used to bring for our midday meals. And if we happened to have any money on us, the coins changed hands at once. If we did not do this, if we were afraid of going home with an empty stomach or an empty purse, the blows were redoubled. They hit us so violently and with such evil enjoyment that even a deaf and dumb person would have realized that we were being whipped(抽打) not so much to make us work harder, but rather to beat us into a state of obedience(服从) in which we would be only too glad to give up our food and money.

    Occasionally one of us, worn out by such calculated cruelty, would have the courage to complain to the headmaster. He would of course be very angry, but the punishment he gave the older boys was always very small—nothing compared to what they had done to us. And the fact is that however much we complained, our situation did not improve in the slightest. Perhaps we should have let our parents know what was going on, but somehow we never dreamed of doing so; I don't know whether it was loyalty or pride that kept us silent, but I can see now that we were foolish to keep quiet about it, for such beatings were completely foreign to our nature.

    1.The statement “my hands and my fingers still remember” (Para.1) means that________．

    A．the author's hands were severely injured in the cleaning up

    B．the author seldom did such hard work as the cleaning up

    C．the author was bullied by the big boys in the cleaning up

    D．the author's hands were his only tool for the cleaning up

    2.The headmaster would tell the students to clean up the school yard at the beginning of the term because________．

    A．he was too lazy

    B．there were many fallen leaves on the ground

    C．the school yard was covered with mud

    D．the students didn't finish their homework

    3.The headmaster asked the older boys to________．

    A．beat those who worked slowly

    B．treat the small boys as peanuts

    C．take charge of the process of the cleaning up

    D．do the cleaning up all by themselves

    4.According to Para. 3, if the author had any money on him, he most probably________．

    A．gave it to the big boys so as to please them

    B．gave it as a bribe to the headmaster

    C．spent it all on his midday meal

    D．spent it buying midday meals for the big boys

    5.When receiving complaints, the headmaster would deal with the big boys by means of ________．

    A．slight punishment B．harsh criticism

    C．complete indifference D．good beatings
