1.My Favourite Books
Jo Usmar is a writer for Cosmopolitan and co-author of the This Book Will series(系列) of lifestyle books.Here she picks her top reads.
Matilda:Roald Dahl
I once wrote a paper on the influence of fairy tales on Roald Dahl's writing and it gave me a new appreciation for his strange and delightful words.Matilda's battles with her cruel parents and the bossy headmistress,Miss Trunchbull,are equally funny and frightening,but they're also aspirational.
After Dark:Haruki Murakami
It's about two sisters—Eri,a model who either won't or can't stop sleeping,and Mari,a young student.In trying to connect to her sister,Mari starts changing her life and discovers a world of diverse "night people" who are hiding secrets.
Gone Girl:Gillian Fynn
There was a bit of me that didn't want to love this when everyone else on the planet did,but the horror story is brilliant.There's tension and anxiety from the beginning as Nick and Amy battle for your trust.It's a real whodunit and the frustration when you realise what's going on is horribly enjoyable.
The Stand:Stephen King
This is an excellent fantasy novel from one of the best storytellers around.After a serious flu outbreak wipes out 99.4% of the world's population,a battle unfolds between good and evil among those left.Randall Flagg is one of the scariest characters ever.

2.I have worked as a keeper at the National Zoo,Paris for 11 years.Spot and Stripe are the first tiger cubs(幼崽) that have ever been born here.Globally,a third of Sumatran cubs in zoos don't make it to adulthood,so I decided to give them round-the-clock care at home.
I've got two children—the younger one,Kynan,was extremely happy about the tigers arriving - but all of us really looked forward to being part of their lives and watching them grow.I wasn't worried about bringing them into my home with my wife and kids.These were cubs.They weighed about 2.5 kg and were so small that there was absolutely no risk.
As they grew more mobile,we let them move freely around the house during the day,but when we were asleep we had to contain them in a large room,otherwise they'd get up to mischief.We'd come down in the morning to find they'd turned the room upside down,and left it looking like a zoo.
Things quickly got very intense due to the huge amount of energy required to look after them.There were some tough times and I just felt extremely tired.I was grateful that my family was there to help.We had to have a bit of a production line going,making up "tiger milk",washing baby bottles,and cleaning the floors.
When Spot and Stripe were four months old,they were learning how to open doors and jump fences,and we knew it really was time for them to go.It was hard for us to finally part with them.For the first few days,Kynan was always a bit disappointed that the cubs weren't there.I'm not sad about it.I'm hands-on with them every day at the zoo,and I do look back very fondly on the time that we had them.

3.Art is everywhere.Any public space has been carefully designed by an artistic mind to be both functional and beautiful.Why,then,is art still so widely considered to be "the easy subject" at school,insignificant to wider society,a waste of time and effort?
Art can connect culture with commercial products in a way that not many other things can;art generates money and holds significant emotional and cultural value within communities.When people attend a concert,they are paying for music,sure,maybe even hotel rooms,meals,and transport,but they also gain an incredible experience,a unique atmosphere and a memory that will go through the rest of their lives.People don't just want material things anymore,they want to experience life一the arts are a perfect crossover(交迭)between culture and commerce.
Furthermore,the arts can bring communities together,reducing loneliness and making people feel safer.Social bonds are created among individuals when they share their arts experiences through reflection and discussion,and their expression of common values through artworks in honour of events significant to a nation's experience.
The arts clearly have a pretty positive impact on physical and psychological health.It is found that people who frequent cultural places or participate in artistic events are more likely to gain good health compared to those who do not;more engagement with the arts is linked to a higher level of people's wellbeing.The Royal Society of Public Health discovered that music and art,when used in hospitals,help to improve the conditions of patients by reducing stress,anxiety and blood pressure.
Children who are involved with the arts make greater achievements in their education:those engaged with drama have greater literary ability while others taking part in musical practice exhibit greater skills in math and languages.Kids with preference for the arts have a greater chance of finding employment in the future.Participating in the arts is essential for child development;encouraging children to express themselves in constructive ways could help to form healthy emotional responses in later life.
Vital to human life,art is celebrated and used by nations across the world for various purposes.Life without art would be boring and dead still,for art is a part of what makes us human.
(1)By sharing their arts experiences,community members can
A.keep the community safe from illnesses
B.develop a stronger tie between them
C.learn to appreciate their own works of art
D.offer honourable solutions to their problems
(2)What can we learn about people who are involved in artistic activities?
A.They enjoy better living conditions.
B.They like to compare themselves with others.
C.They are particularly good at both music and art.
D.They tend to be healthier physically and mentally.
(3)How does kids' engagement with the arts benefit them?
A.It promotes their academic performance and emotional growth.
B.It gives them more confidence in exhibiting their learning skills.
C.It inspires their creativity in designing their future career.
D.It helps to make responsible people out of them.
(4)What is the best title for this passage?
A.How Art Cures Our Hearts
B.Art:A Blessing to Humankind
C.How Art Benefits Communities
D.Art:A Bridge Between Cultures組卷:2引用:1難度:0.6

9.Lisa woke up on Saturday morning very excited.Today she was turning 10.She thought her mother would make her a special breakfast.Last year on her birthday,Lisa woke up to the smell of pancakes and sausage cooking.The kitchen table was full of fresh fruit and juice,and her family had even bought lots of fresh flowers to put on the table.
But when she went downstairs this morning,her father,mother and brother were eating cereal (麥片) at the table,just like any other day.No one even said "Happy birthday."
When the phone rang and her mother announced that Lisa's aunt wanted to speak with her,she knew that it must be to wish her the best on her 10th birthday.But to Lisa's surprise,her aunt simply wanted to remind her to pick up her mail the next week while her aunt was out of town.
Lisa was quite confused.She thought that her family would say something about her special day,but she didn't want to seem upset.She tried to be cheerful.After all,she was looking forward to meeting her friends in the park soon.Surely they were going to be excited about her birthday.
When Lisa arrived at the park,her friend Jane was the first to greet her. "Nice day,isn't it,Lisa?" she asked.
Lisa,ready for her friend to wish her a happy birthday,responded excitedly, "Yes,it is!It's a great day.You know why?"
"Because it's Saturday and the weather is great!" Jane replied.
Lisa nodded,but looked down in disappointment.
Soon the rest of her friends arrived,and they all had a good time playing soccer and spending time together.But Lisa couldn't help but think that it was strange that none of them had mentioned her birthday.
As she walked home in the late afternoon sun,Lisa tried her best not to cry.How could everyone forget her birthday?She was close to tears by the time she reached her home.
注意:續(xù)寫詞數(shù)應為150左右。
On stepping in,Lisa was quite surprised.________
When the birthday candles were lit,the warmest moment came.__________組卷:7引用:4難度:0.3
