【题目】根据短文内容,选择最佳答案。
When people today talk about a tiny house, they probably mean the trendy living space that's about the size of a shed (棚). But you would have to be five inches tall to live in the original tiny houses. Dollhouse(小房子),which have been around for several centuries, don't offer shelter to real people, but they provide a vivid(生动的) experience of life in times and places both real and imaginary.
The National Building Museum in Washington, D.C., lets visitors time travel in this tiny world through ―Small Stories: At Home in a Dollhouse,” an exhibit that opened Saturday. Visitors can see twelve dollhouses from the Victoria and Albert Museum in London, England, which contain amazing tiny furnishings. But those people who put together the exhibit also wanted visitors to know the characters inside.
“It's 300 years of British homes told through their inhabitants (居民),” said Alice Sage, who is in charge of the London museum.
So as visitors look inside the Tate Baby House, a fancy townhouse from 1760, they can push a button to hear a young woman get a lecture from her mother on the proper way to run a home. In the Killer Cabinet house, a servant named Betsy complains about the problems of city life in the 1830s. “We've got the cat to keep the rats away,” she says.
That dollhouse was John Killer's gift to his wife and five daughters. The girls were allowed to play with the house, but they probably also learned a few lessons, Sage said.
“The kitchen of the house would have been the perfect way to teach the girls about the management of a home,” she said, noting the tiny dishes and pots.
Those who prefer a more modern look won't be disappointed. There are two rooms displaying a white dollhouse from 1935, an apartment house from the 1960s and a brightly colored 21st-century design.
The end of the exhibit shows how imaginative design sometimes works best in small spaces.
The Building Museum asked twenty-four artists, designers and architects from across the United States to each create a “dream room” from the past, present or future. Some of these unique small rooms were made using traditional furnishings, others from materials such as clay, insects, 3D-printing, and even peeps marshmallow candies!
(1)Which of the following were on show Saturday?
A.A dozen dollhouses from England.
B.Some old shelters for poor people.
C.Some imaginary tiny furnishings.
D.A couple of fashionable living spaces.
(2)What is the function of the characters inside the Museum?
A.Working as organizers of the exhibit.
B.Making the exhibit more attractive.
C.Providing good services for visitors.
D.Helping visitors understand dollhouses.
(3)What can we learn about the Killer Cabinet house?
A.It was made up of 24 tiny rooms.
B.Its kitchen may have an educational purpose.
C.Its history dates back to the 17th century.
D.It was owned by a woman named Betsy.
(4)What might be the best title of the passage?
A.An exhibit of dollhouses.
B.The history of dollhouses.
C.How to make a dollhouse.
D.Amazing tiny furniture.

【题目】任务型阅读
Thomas Edison was one of the most successful inventors the world has ever seen.
But people found that although Edison was good at inventing new things, he was a poor fisherman. He used to spend an hour almost every day sitting at the side of a river and fish. He always fished all alone by himself.
People asked Edison, “Why are you so crazy about fishing when you are so bad at it?” His answer was, “I really never caught ant fish because I have never used any bait (诱饵).” Another question followed, “Why would you fish without bait?” Edison answered, “Because when you fish without bait, people don't disturb you and neither do the fish”
Sometimes the world's best inventor was the world's worst fisherman. In fact, because Edison was the world's worst fisherman, he could become the world's greatest inventor.
Are you setting aside some time for yourself to think? Here are some ideas for you:
Slowing down and taking long showers is a good idea.
Long walks are good too.
Afternoon naps have been proved to improve creativity.
A. But he never caught any fish.
B. It provides me my best time to think.
C. So is listening to some soft classical music.
D. In all, Edison has thousands of inventions.
E. He was asked the reason behind him being a fisherman.
F. To make your brain work better, you need to take a rest.
G. Set aside 15-20 minutes per day so that you can do nothing.

【题目】The Today I learned–The New York Times’ fun column always highlights some surprising and interesting facts. In that spirit,The New York Times lists some of the most eye-catching things out of the column and edits them into What I Learned This Year.Following are some facts out of What I Learned in 2016.
The world’s most-used natural resource (apart from water,listed at the second place and air,as the champion) is sand,which consists of extremely small pieces of stone-and it’s disappearing.

It’s myth that closing unused apps on your smartphone will prolong battery life.And turning off Wi-Fi doesn’t help,either.
Annual percentage of highway death had been going down for the last four decades till it last year recorded the largest increase in 50 years.Blame Snapchat and other smarphone apps.

【题目】The ancient city of Chichen Itza in southern Mexico was one of the most powerful cities and one of the most powerful ancient cultures — the Maya. But today, no one lives there. It is only a group of old buildings. However, people from around the world still come to see it. People come to learn about its ancient culture, the culture of the Mayan people.
The Mayan culture began almost 3,000 years ago and grew in parts of Central America. But about 1,000 years ago a group called the Itza invaded the city and built new parts of the city based on natural wells. They named the city Chichen Itza, which means “mouth of the well of the Itza”.
The most interesting structure in Chichen Itza is the Pyramid of Kukulcan (库库尔坎金字塔), whose four sides all come together at one point at the top. Each side on the Pyramid of Kukulcan has 91 steps. And there is one more step at the top of the pyramid. The steps are as many as the days of a year. Some experts believe the Maya could have used this building to help them know when to plant crops. Each day the sun falls on a different step of the pyramid, which could be a way to follow the year.
The people of Chichen Itza especially designed one building to observe and study the movement of the stars and planets. Experts say that the observatory (天文台) is one of the most complex structures the Maya built. A set of steps went up and around the observatory tower. And there were windows in the tower. Each window had a purpose. Experts believe that a person looking through one of these windows could see particular stars on particular dates. The Maya might have believed that studying the stars could tell them the future.
