11.Use this list of winter festivals to plan your trip or plan around them,as many of these festivals will tie up transport and accommodations and drive up prices.It's all up to you:either plan your travel dates around them,or arrive early enough to jump into the festive atmosphere!
Lighting Festival
A day-trip away from South Korea's capital Seoul,the Garden of Morning Calm is a must-see during the Festival.The lights there cover an area of some 330,000 square meters,using 30,000 colorful LED lights hanging from the trees.Wander around the fairy-like wonderland created by the lights-through such fields like Bonsai Garden,Moonlight Garden,and the Garden of Eden.
*Where:Gapyeong County,South Korea
*When:December-Mid-March
Harbin Ice Festival
Millions of tourists visit this icy festival every year,drawn by the massive ice sculptures that decorate the fairgrounds next to Songhua River.The sculptures,ice palaces,mazes and slides are simply massive in scale,constructed from some 260,000 cubic yards of ice blocks harvested from the river.They range in size from life-scale carvings of animals and fantastic creatures,to massive 250-foot structures that tower over the crowds.
*Where:Harbin,China
*When:January 5-February 5
Sapporo Snow Festival
Japan's biggest winter festival has expanded in size and scope since its first celebration in 1950.The Festival covers two main sites in Sapporo.The centerpiece Odori Park site features some 100 ice sculptures dazzlingly lit up after dark.The Susukino district site features a smaller scale of ice sculptures decorating the district.The sculptures cover animals both real and fantastic,including anime-based creatures like Pokemon.Visitors can also enjoy snow mazes,street food,musical performances and skating on the ice rink near Odori Park.
*Where:Sapporo,Japan
*When:February 4-11
Sky Lantern Festival
The Pingxi Sky Lantern Festival in Taiwan,China is Taiwan's most visited lantern festival,lighting the skies with floating lanterns bearing messages for the gods.Its counterpart in the Yangshui District favors a noisier kind of illumination - the Tainan Yanshui Fireworks Display takes place at Tainan's Wumiao Temple,where locals dare to be hit by small fireworks as a test of their strength and to ward off evil.

12.The British are known for their sense of humour.However,it is often difficult for foreigners to understand their jokes.The main point to remember is that the British often use understatement.
Understatement means saying less than you think or feel.For example,if someone gets very wet in a shower of rain,he might say. "It's a little damp(潮湿的)outside." Or,if someone is very impolite and shouts at another person,someone else might say, "She isn't exactly friendly." Understatement is often used in unpleasant situation or to make another person look silly.Understatement plays an important part in British humour.
Another key to understanding British humour is that the British like to make fun of themselves as well as others.They often laugh about the silly and unpleasant things that happen to our everyday life when someone accidentally falls over in the street.They also like to make jokes about people from different classes of society.They like to make jokes about their accents,the way they dress and the way they behave.What's more,the British love to watch comedies about people who do not know how to behave in society.The comedy series Mr Bean is a good example of this kind of humour.Mr Bean is the character created by British actor Rowan Atkinson in 1990.
Mr Bean doesn't talk often,and instead he uses his body movements and facial expressions to make people laugh.Perhaps what makes Mr Bean so funny is that he does things that adults in the real world cannot do.Mr Bean is popular in many countries around the world because you do not have to speak English to understand the humour.Because of this,many people have become familiar with the British sense of humour.
(1)Why is it difficult for foreigners to understand British jokes?
A.The British often enlarge the fad.
B.British jokes are connected with many different cultures.
C.The British try to make out that something is less important than it is.
D.British jokes are not as funny as jokes in other countries.
(2)How does the author explain understatement?
A.By using examples.
B.By making comparisons.
C.By following time order.
D.By describing a process.
(3)How does Mr Bean make people laugh?
A.By telling funny stories.
B.By making jokes about others' accents.
C.By copying how others behave.
D.By using his body movements and facial expressions.
(4)What can be the best title for the text?
A.British Humour in Comedy
B.Humour in Different Cultures
C.Developing Your Sense of Humour
D.Understanding British Humour组卷:32引用:3难度:0.5 -
13. Is it true that our brain alone is responsible for human cognition (认知)?What about our body?Is it possible for thoughts and behavior to originate from somewhere other than our brain?Psychologists who study Embodied Cognition (EC) ask similar questions.The EC theory suggests our body is also responsible for thinking or problem-solving.More accurately,the mind shapes the body and the.jye.ai shapes the mind in equal measure.
If you think about it for a moment,it makes total sense.When you smell something good or hear amusing sounds,certain emotions are awakened.Think about how newborns use their senses to understand the world around them.They don't have emotions so much as needs — they don't feel sad,they're just hungry and need food.Even unborn babies can feel their mothers' heartbeats and this has a calming effect.In the real world,they cry when they're cold and then get hugged.That way,they start to associate being warm with being loved.
Understandably,scientists have been arguing for years and still disagree on whether the brain is the nerve centre that operates the rest of the body.Older Western philosophers and mainstream language researchers believe this is fact,while EC theorises that the brain and body are working together as an organic supercomputer,processing everything and forming your reactions.
Further studies have backed up the mind-body jye.aiteraction.In one experiment,test subjects(实验对象) were asked to judge people after being handed a hot or a cold drink.They all made warm evaluations when their fingertips perceived warmth rather than coolness.And it works the other way too:in another study,subjects' fingertip temperatures were measured after being included in or "rejected" from a group task.Those who were included felt physically warmer.
For further proof,we can look at the metaphors(比喻说法) that we use without even thinking.A kind and sympathetic person is frequently referred to as one with a soft heart and someone who is very strong and calm in difficult situations is often described as solid as a rock.And this kind of metaphorical use is common across languages.
Now that you have the knowledge of mind-body interaction,why not use it?If you're having a bad day,a warm cup of tea will give you a flash of pleasure.If you know you're physically cold,warm up before making any interpersonal decisions.
(1)Where does the newborns' understanding of their surroundings start from?
A.Their personal looks.
B.Their mental needs.
C.Their inner emotions.
D.Their physical feelings.
(2)What does the experiments mentioned in Paragraph 4 further prove?
A.environment impacts how we judge others
B.how body temperature is related to health
C.the mind and the body influence each other
D.how humans interact with their surroundings
(3)What does the author intend to prove by citing the metaphors in Paragraph 5?
A.Human speech is alive with metaphors.
B.Human senses have effects on thinking.
C.Human language is shaped by visual images.
D.Human emotions are often compared to natural materials.
(4)What is the author's purpose in writing the last paragraph?
A.To deepen the reader's understanding of EC.
B.To share the ways to release their emotions.
C.To guide the reader onto the path to success.
D.To encourage the reader to put EC into practice.组卷:2引用:1难度:0.5 -
14.Stories of immigrants attract me a lot,especially the life stories of Italians who have come to America since the 1700s.In each of these stories I see elements of my own story,that of leaving my birthplace and family and creating a new life in a different culture and in a different language.
The child of Italian immigrants and an award-winning scholar of Italian literature,in the book My Two Italies Joseph Luzzi struggled to create or find his own identity from an early age.Even more problematic for him was "which" Italy to "choose," the one he inherited(继承) from his family,poor and linked to old traditions and customs he finds rude and somewhat cruel,or the one he finds in literature and art books that show him a country with a modern literary culture.
The choice becomes even sadder as in his professional life he becomes a scholar of Italian literature and culture.He describes episodes of his youth that show the clash between the first and the second generation immigrants that are both funny and tragicomic(悲喜剧式的).These episodes highlight the daily customs his parents brought from their hometown that are in conflict with Joseph's desire to "fit in" the American culture.Joseph's visits to Italy as a student and then as a scholar deepen the divide between his two Italies and highlight his quest for identity.
The author's personal changes are full of quotes and comments on the cultural and political landscape of Italy.I find that his insights on contemporary Italian cultural and political phenomena are particularly jye.aiterestjye.aig.In this book,Joseph touches or comments in depth about several issues concerning Italian life,such as the relationship between dialects(方言) and the official "Italian" language,and the Southern "question" or the uneasy interaction between Northern and Southern Italians.
I enjoyed reading this book.It is personal,moving,educational and entertaining.I hope you will enjoy it too!

A.He came to America in 1700.
B.He wants to live an Italian life.
C.He can see himself in these stories.
D.He likes to learn the Italian language.
(2)Which of the following is more difficult for Joseph to deal with?
A.Choosing right Italian identity.
B.Inheriting his parents' wealth.
C.Bridging the generation gap.
D.Becoming a literary scholar.
(3)What does the underlined word "clash" mean in paragraph 3?
A.Cooperation.
B.Distance.
C.Similarity.
D.Conflict.
(4)What is the text?
A.A news report.
B.A book review.
C.A children's story.
D.A diary entry.组卷:8引用:2难度:0.5

18.阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
When I was a kid,I came across a basic series of questions every time I was introduced to a person.Most were easy:"How old are you?" "What grade are you in?" "What do you want to be when you grow up?" But there was one question that troubled me: "What do your parents do?"
Dad was a computer programmer,so that one was easy enough. "My dad works on computers," I would say.But mom's job was hard to explain.She called herself a "nurse practitioner(从业者)".Mom explained it easier to make me understand. "You can say I teach nursing," she said. "My mom teaches nurses," I would repeat what she had said to me.
When that answer led to even more questions,my response became simpler,"My mom is nurse," though I was finally left wondering what it was she actually did.It definitely demanded a lot of time and energy and was important to the injured.I got my first clue(线索) about what mom actually did when having a late-night trip with her to the hospital in Central Phoenix.
Mom was called in to make rounds unexpectedly that night.It was dark outside and almost time for me to go to bed,so I was shocked when she asked if I wanted to come along with her.I loved the way the light from the streetlamps passed through the car.Being amazed at the view from the front seat,I didn't say much.Some soft music was played on the radio in the car,which made me feel relaxed.When we arrived at the hospital,mom guided me through the parking garage and led me to a small emergency waiting room.There was only a row of white chairs along each wall and a TV which weighed roughly three hundred pounds.
注意:
1.续写词数应为150词左右;
2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
Paragraph 1:
My mom handed me a bag of chocolate and left the emergency room to make her rounds.______

On the drive home,I asked mom if she had seen a man whose arms were injured badly.______组卷:4引用:3难度:0.5 -
