【题目】【原创】NOWADAYS, most animated (动画) films rely heavily on computer technology. But his magical world where witches (魔法师) cast spells and castles float in the sky is brought to life by hand. Nevertheless, Hayao Miyazaki is referred to as Japan’s Walt Disney and considered by many to be the world’s greatest living animator.

This month, the 72-year-old Miyazaki announced his retirement. The Japanese animator has directed 11 animated full-length films over the past four decades, including the Oscar-winning Spirited Away (《千与千寻》) and his latest release, The Wind Rises (《起风了》), which tells the life story of a man who designed Japanese World War II fighter planes.

Just as The Wind Rises shows, Miyazaki is well-known for his obsession with flight, especially human flight. Other striking aspects of Miyazaki’s films include his themes of environmental protection and the horrors of war.

Miyazaki’s work is also famous for its lack of clearly defined good and evil characters. He sees the 21st century as a complex time when old norms need to be re-examined.

As a storyteller, he is an inventor of fairy tales full of mystery. In the Miyazakian universe, wizards (巫师) turn into birds of prey; young girls are transformed overnight into 90-year-old women; greedy parents are changed into pigs; and shooting stars become fire demons (恶魔).

As a visual (视觉的) artist, most of Miyazaki’s grace comes from his vivid (鲜明的) colors and lovingly drawn landscapes a rolling meadow (草地) covered with flowers and shadowed by clouds, or a range of rocky hills rising toward snow-capped mountain peaks

People attribute Miyazaki’s success to his long pursuit of his hand-drawn technique, although in an interview with CNN he called himself an “extinct species” in the age of digital animation.

A recent television documentary on the making of The Wind Rises showed a disappointed Miyazaki throwing a pile (堆) of drawings into the trash. He is said to have redrawn thousands of frames of the much-praised Princess Mononoke (《幽灵公主》) when they did not meet his standards.

But his huge attention to detail has earned him the respect of the entire animated film world. Even John Lasseter head of Pixar, the famous US computer animation studio once called Miyazaki “one of the greatest filmmakers of our time”.

【1】What can we know about Miyazaki’s film The Wind Rises?

A.It was put on a long time ago.

【题目】In a room at Texas Children Cancer Center in Houston, eight-year-old Simran Jatar lay in bed with a drip (点滴) above her to fight her bone cancer. Over her bald (秃的) head, she wore a pink hat that matched her clothes. But the third graders cheery dressing didnt mask her pain and weary(疲倦的) eyes.

Then a visitor showed up. Do you want to write a song? asked Anita Kruse, 49, rolling a cart equipped with an electronic(电子) keyboard, a microphone and speakers(扬声器). Simran stared. Have you ever written a poem? Anita Kruse continued. Well, yes, Simran said.

Within minutes, Simran was reading her poem into the microphone. Some bird soaring through the sky, she said softly. Imagination in its head…” Anita Kruse added piano music, a few warbling (鸣, 唱) birds, and finally the girls voice. Thirty minutes later, she presented Simran with a CD of her first recorded song.

That was the beginning of Anita Kruses project, Purple Songs Can Fly, one that has helped more than 125 young patients write and record songs. As a composer(作曲家) and pianist who had performed at the hospital, Kruse said that the idea of how she could help came in one flash.

The effect on the kids has been great. One teenage girl, curling (蜷缩) in pain in her wheelchair, stood unaided to dance to a hip-hop song she had written. A 12-year-old boy with Hodgkins disease who rarely spoke surprised his doctors with a song he called I Can Make It.

My time with the kids is heartbreaking because of the severity of their illnesses, says Anita Kruse. But they also make you happy, when the children are smiling, excited to share their CD with their families.

Simran is now an active sixth grader and cancer-free. From time to time, she and her mother listen to her song, Always Remembering, and they always remember the really sweet and nice and loving lady who gave them a shining moment in the dark hour.

【1】 Simran Jatar lay in bed in hospital because ______.

A. most of her hair had fallen out

【2】What do we know about Anita Kruses project?

A. It helps young patients record songs.

B. It is supported by singers and patients.

C. It aims to replace the medical treatment.

D. It offers patients chances to realize their dreams.

【3】What does the case(实例) of a 12-year-old boy suggest?

A. Most children are naturally fond of music.

B. He was brave enough to put up performance.

C. The project has positive effect on young patients.

D. Singing is the best way to treat some illnesses.

【4】 What is probably the best title for the passage?

【题目】Before he sailed round the world alone, Francis Chichester had already surprised his friends several times. He had tried to fly round the world but failed. That was in 1931.

The years passed. He gave up flying and began sailing. He enjoyed it greatly. Chichester was already 58 years old when he won the first solo transatlantic sailing race. His old dream of going round the world came back, but this time he would sail.His friends and doctors did not think he could do it, as he had lung cancer. But Chichester was determined to carry out his plan. In August 1966, at the age of nearly 65, an age when many men retire, he began the greatest voyage of his life.

Chichester covered 14100 miles before stopping in Sydney, Australia. This was more than twice the distance anyone had previously sailed alone. He arrived in Australia on 12 December, just 107 days out from England. He received a warm welcome from the Australians and from his family who had flown there to meet him. On shore, Chichester could not walk without help. Everybody said the same thing: he had done enough; he must not go any further. But he did not listen.

After resting in Sydney for a few weeks, Chichester set off once more in spite of his friends' attempts to dissuade him. The second half of his voyage was by far the more dangerous part, during which he sailed round the treacherous Cape Horn.After succeeding in sailing round Cape Horn, Chichester sent the following radio message to London: "I feel as if I had wakened from a nightmare. Wild horses could not drag me down to Cape Horn and that sinister Southern Ocean again."

Just before 9 o'clock on Sunday evening 28 May 1967, he arrived back in England, where a quarter of a million people were waiting to welcome him.Queen Elizabeth II knighted(授以爵位) him with the very sword that Queen Elizabeth I had used almost 400 years earlier to knight Sir Francis Drake after he had sailed round the world for the first time.The whole voyage from England and back had covered 28,500 miles. It had taken him nine months, of which the sailing time was 226 days. He had done what he wanted to accomplish.

【1】What can we learn about Chichester?

A.He failed the solo transatlantic sailing race in 1959.

B.He was a brave and determined man.

C.The second half of his voyage was not as dangerous as the first half.

D.The radio message expressed his concern about the sailing.

【2】【改编】What happened to Queen Elizabeth II after Chichester arrived back in England?

A.She called on the English to learn form him.

B.She was waiting to congratulate on his success in sailing.

C.She thought little of his achievements.

D.She knighted him for praising him.

【3】【改编】What can we infer from the text ? ____

A.Anyone who had sailed alone traveled less than 7050miles before 1966

B.Chichester sailed round the Atlantic in 1931

C.Most of the English leave their jobs at the age of 65

D.Chichester died of lung cancer in 1967 after/span> he went back to England
