    EVERYONE’S talking about it in American high schools. Whether they are hip-hop fans or just students or just students or teachers who listen to good music of any genre(类型), they all have one thing in common: an obsession with Hamilton, a hip-hop musical about the forgotten founding father of the United States on the $10 bill. What makes this musical so different from all the other ones？

    “Everybody is so excited about it.” Mark Madama, associate professor of musical theater at the University of Michigan, said, “It is something for the students. Hip-hop music is what they listen to when they are walking down the street and all of a sudden, now that is also the music that is in musical theater.”

    The full title of the show is Hamilton: An American Musical, and it tells the stories of Alexander Hamilton’s life: from a homeless orphan to Washington’s right hand man(得力助手), from an unknown to war hero. The idea of a Broadway musical about a founding father with hip-hop music has gotten enough attention on its own.

    One of the most amazing details of this phenomenon is that most of the students have never even seen it. Nazareth High School junior Maddy Schierl has never seen the show live but said she still relates to it deeply. “There is so much emotion in the music that I feel like I have experienced the show’s essence(本质)without even having to see it,” Schierl said.

    Students and teachers are finding other ways to fall in love with Hamilton, whether they do it through listening to its music, watching short videos on YouTube or even studying it in the classroom. Katja Stonebraker, who teaches AP US history at Cary-Grove High School, described the musical as “ a teacher’s dream”, Stonebraker plans to use Hamilton more in the future because of the interesting perspective it tells Hamilton’s story from.

    “ You see these old dead guys, and they are who you have to memorize and learn,” Stonebraker said,-But I think Hamilton makes history real and relatable.”

    1.The underlined word “obsession” in Paragraph 1 is closest in meaning to ______.

    A. strong enthusiasm B. great respect

    C. lack of interest D. total surprise

    2.Hamilton is a musical that appeals to students because______.

    A. its story is closely related to students’ lives today

    B. it uses hip-hop, which is very popular among students

    C. it has been specially designed to satisfy students’ tastes

    D. it tells interesting stories from the life of a founding father of the US

    3.The example of Maddy Schierl is used to ______.

    A. prove that Hamilton is very popular among students

    B give an example of people’s comments about Hamilton

    C. explore the controversies behind Hamilton’s popularity

    D. show that people can connect to Hamilton without seeing it

    4.Which of the following statements would Stonebraker probably agree with?

    A. Hamilton tells Hamilton’s story vividly and from a different viewpoint.

    B. Hamilton is the best teaching material she has ever used

    C. Every student will become more interested in history after seeing Hamilton.

    D. There will be more musicals about historical figures in the future.

    The Enigma (谜）of Beauty

    The search for beauty spans centuries and continents. Paintings of Egyptians dating back over 4, 000 years show both men and women painting their nails and wearing makeup. In 18th-century France, wealthy noblemen wore large wigs (假发）of long, white hair to make themselves attractive. Today, people continue to devote a lot of time and money to their appearance.

    There is at least one good reason for the desire to be attractive: beauty is power. Studies suggest that good-looking people make more money, get called on more often in class, and are regarded as friendlier.

    But what exactly is beauty? It's difficult to describe it clearly, and yet we know it when we see it. And our awareness of it may start at a very early age. In one set of studies, six-month-old babies were shown a series of photographs. The faces on the pictures had been rated for attractiveness by a group of college students. In the studies, the babies spent more time looking at the attractive faces than the unattractive ones.

    The idea that even babies can judge appearance makes perfect sense to many researchers. In studies by psychologists, men consistently showed a preference for women with larger eyes, fuller lips, and a smaller nose and chin while women prefer men with large shoulders and a narrow waist. According to scientists, the mind unconsciously tells men and women that these traits —the full lips, clear skin, strong shoulders —equal health and genetic well-being.

    Not everyone thinks the same way, however. “Our hardwiredness can be changed by all sorts of expectations — mostly cultural,” says C. Loring Brace, an anthropologist at the University of Michigan. What is considered attractive in one culture might not be in another. Look at most Western fashion magazines: the women on the pages are thin. But is this “perfect” body type for women worldwide? Scientists' answer is no; what is considered beautiful is subjective and varies around the world. They found native peoples in southeast Peru preferred shapes regarded overweight in Western cultures.

    For better or worse, beauty plays a role in our lives. But it is extremely difficult to describe exactly what makes one person attractive to another. Although there do seem to be certain physical traits considered universally appealing, it is also true that beauty does not always keep to a single, uniform standard. Beauty really is, as the saying goes, in the eye of the beholder.

    1.People's ideas about beauty ________.

    A. have existed since ancient times

    B. can be easily described

    C. have little influence on a person's success

    D. are based upon strict standard

    2.In Paragraph 3, the babies in the study ________.

    A. were rated for their appearance

    B. were entered in a beauty contest

    C. were shown photos of a group of college students

    D. were able to tell attractive faces from unattractive ones

    3.The underlined word “traits” in Paragraph 4 probably means ________.

    A. qualities B. measurements

    C. judgments D. standards

    4.We can learn from the passage that ________.

    A. the ideas of beauty vary as people grow up

    B. the search for beauty is rooted in lack of confidence

    C. the standards for beauty are based on scientific researches

    D. the understanding of beauty depends on cultural backgrounds

    Both are so much related to each other. And both are so dissimilar! What are the differences between friendship and love? Is platonic(理想的) friendship possible between persons of opposite sex? Let us try and understand.

    What is friendship? Why do we call a person our friend? When do we call someone a very good friend? If we care for a person, if we are always ready to help that person and if we share most of our thoughts with a person, they are our good friends. We can always count upon our good friends in an emergency. We are always sure that our friend will understand why we acted in a certain way. We need not explain anything to our very good friends. The friendship is so deep and the relationship is so close, that most of the things are automatically understood by our friends.

    What about love? In a relationship of deep love, all the sharing that we discussed above are taken for granted. But love transcends(胜过，超越) all these. During love, we are attached with a particular person, while in friendship, one may have many friends. A loving relationship makes one so much attached to the other, that one gets pained if his/her beloved is hurt! Love also involves a physical element. Friendship does not have that. This is a vital difference. Nature gives us love so that the species can go forward. Nature does not give us friendship.

    Your heart beats will never increase in expectation of meeting your friend. You will not lie awake at night thinking about your friend. You will not feel totally lost, if you don't meet your friend for a few days. You will not have dreams in your eyes thinking about your friend. But in love, you will do all these and much more. Indeed, there is no comparison between love and friendship.

    1.What's the function of the first passage?

    A．To come up with the question for the further discussion.

    B．To explain the main idea of the following passage.

    C．To tell us the whole meaning of the passage.

    D．To advise us to make friends in different way.

    2.How do you do to make real friends?

    A．You should give others your everything.

    B．You should share, help and understand each other.

    C．You should have the same interests in everything.

    D．Friend in need is a friend indeed.

    3.If you are friends, you'll ________.

    A．dream of him at night

    B．lie awake at night and think your friend

    C．feel you don't meet him for a long time

    D．never feel excited meeting your friend

    4.The writer gives us the article to ________.

    A．tell us the meaning of love and friendship.

    B．tell us relationship between friends and relatives.

    C．tell us the difference between love and friendship.

    D．tell us how to get friendship and love.
