31、真阅读下列短文，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。AWhen it comes to romance, no one does it better than the French. This is believed to be true of their movies, too. Unlike the Hollywood blockbusters(大片) you may be used to, French films are “usually a more artistic statement about being in the world”

32、, noted The Guardian.From Oct 8 to Oct 29, in cooperation with the French embassy(大使馆) in China, the China Film Archive and China National Film Museum are presenting classic and critically acclaimed(备受赞誉的) French movies, including Le Havre (2011), Mia et le Migou (2008), and Le Voyage dans la Lune (

33、1902).Sha Dan, curator(策展人) of the China Film Archive, explained to the media what to expect from the film series, and revealed how first-time viewers can best appreciate French movies.Q: Why should I watch French movies?A: French films have a lot of virtues. For one thing, they use dialogue and plo

34、t, instead of visual effects, to drive the story. For another, they stress diversity(多元). While Hollywood movies are often about universal values, French movies have French culture or regional cultures deeply rooted in them. You have to understand them in their cultural context. Thats what sometimes

35、 makes French movies difficult to understand.Q: How can a Chinese audience appreciate French movies?A: You need to get used to their way of filming. When shooting two people talking to each other, the traditional way is to film each person face-forward as they take turns speaking. However, French mo

36、vies are filmed in more experimental ways, like switching from a close shot to a long shot.Also, you should search for background information. The movies title and its director can reflect its ideas and storyline. For example, Les Enfants du Paradis (1945), also known as Children of Paradise, tells

37、the story of beautiful Garance and the four men who love her in their own ways. Garance meets these men in a theater, and the “Paradis” in the movie title is an informal French name for a theaters gallery.56. What is the authors purpose in writing this text?A. To recommend some classic French movies

38、.B. To help readers to better appreciate French movies.C. To compare French movies with Hollywood blockbusters.D. To describe the development and features of French movies in great detail.57. Which of the following is a characteristic of French movies?A. They are often about universal values.B. They

39、 usually have really good visual effects.C. They attach a lot of importance to French culture and French regional cultures.D. They are sometimes hard to understand because of their complex plots.58. Which of the following is TRUE about French movies according to the text?A. They are mostly romances

40、and are usually artistic.B. They often involve more close shots than long shots.C. They prefer to use the traditional way of shooting two people talking to each other.D. Their titles and directors can help viewers learn background information.BMany of us remember being in awe(敬畏) when we saw cloned

41、dinosaurs running wild in the film Jurassic Park. And the idea of using technology to revive(恢复) extinct species has long fascinated not only writers and directors, but scientists as well.According to The Telegraph, woolly mammoths(长毛猛犸象), which featured in the popular Ice Age animated movie series,

42、 “may walk the earth once more” now that scientists have taken another step toward realizing a long-held dreamrecreating their DNA. Mammoths became extinct around 10,000 years ago. However, since the discovery of near-perfect preserved remains in Arctic permafrost(北极冻土带) in May 2013, a variety of re

43、search studies have been carried out since.Geneticists from Harvard University analyzed DNA from the remains, looking for genes which separated mammoths from elephants, such as hairiness and ear size. They then used the results to reproduce exact copies of 14 mammoth genes. “It is the first time tha

44、t mammoth genes have been alivealthough so far it has only been done in the lab,” George Church, lead researcher of the project, told the Sunday Times.Church then used a new technique which allows scientists to edit DNA carefully, replacing sections of elephant DNA with the mammoth genes. So “we now

45、 have functioning elephant cells with mammoth DNA in them,” he said.However, Church ruled out the possibility of bringing the mammoths back to life via cloning from frozen remains. He said he “preferred to focus on rebuilding the full mammoth genome(基因组) by analyzing DNA from preserved remains and p

46、utting it into the cells of its closest living relative the Asian elephant,” reported The Telegraph.Church argued that the return of the woolly mammothor rather, the return of something very similarcould help bring back fragile(脆弱的) ecosystems. However, some scientists believe that bringing back the

47、 mammoth would be unethical.Professor Alex Greenwood, an expert on ancient DNA, said: “We may face the extinction of African and Asian elephants. Why bring back another elephant from extinction when we cannot even keep the ones that are not extinct around?” he told the Sunday Times. “What is the mes

48、sage? We can be as irresponsible with the environment as we want. Then well just clone things back?”“Money would be better spent focusing on conserving what we do have than spending it on an animal that has been extinct for thousands of years,” he said.59. We can learn from the article that _.A. clo

49、ned mammoths followed cloned dinosaurs to get revivedB. the technology to revive mammoth genes is already matureC. George Church and his colleagues tried to reproduce mammoth DNAD. Church and his team managed to list all the genes that separate mammoths from elephants60. According to Church, what is

50、 the significance of his study?A. It could help prevent the extinction of the Asian elephant.B. It could help people better tell elephant DNA from mammoth genes.C. It could help bring back some extinct species and save fragile ecosystems.D. It could help bring mammoths back to life via cloning from

51、frozen remains.61. The underlined word “unethical” in Paragraph 7 is closest in meaning to _.A. unacceptable B. misled C. impractical D. illegal62. According to the article, Professor Alex Greenwood believes that _.A. there is no need to worry about the extinction of African and Asian elephants at p

52、resentB. its necessary to bring back species that are beneficial to human beings from extinctionC. the return of the woolly mammoth would help to balance ecosystemsD. its more important to protect present species than to bring back extinct onesC Each year, 500 million people from 164 countries celeb

53、rate World Environment Day on 5 June. It may seem like there is not much that an individual can do to save the world, but there is. One of the first steps is to understand the problems and their solutions.Try to learn about your ecosystem, endangered animals and pollution. If you are well-informed,

54、you can make better decisions about how to save energy and produce less waste. You can also learn how to be a better consumer and not buy products made from endangered animals or which have too much packaging. Also share your concerns with others and find ways to promote environmental education. Hel

55、p educate people in your community about ways in which they can help protect the environment. The Earth is our only home. We should take good care of it.RecycleMake a list of all the things you can recycle at home and at school and start recycling. In some cases, you can sell the things you recycle.

56、 In others, you can turn unwanted items into something useful for another purpose, such as using old plastic bottles for growing plants. Most bottles and jars contain at least 25% recycled glass. And recycling aluminum cans saves 95% of the energy needed to make aluminum from bauxite ore. Recycling

57、one ton of paper saves 17 trees, 26,000 liters of water, 1,700 liters of oil, 266 kilograms of air pollution and 2.3 cubic meters of rubbish dump space.Use less energyThe easiest way to save energy is to cycle or walk whenever possible instead of using public transportation. At home and at school, y

58、ou should only use electric lights and electrical appliances when you need them. There are many other less obvious ways of saving energy. For example, try to ask your mum to buy food which has been grown locally. Why? When people buy food from far away, it takes extra energy to package and ship it b

59、y boat, train, truck or plane.Save waterYou can save water by helping your Dad repair leaking pipes and toilets. Take short showers instead of baths.

63、arthC. Celebrate the World Environment Day! D. Use less water and energyDCharles Dickens was one of the most beloved storytellers in the English language. His novels made him famous in his own time, and continue as classics in ours.Dickens began his literary career with almost no formal education. H

64、e was born in Landport, on Feb. 7, 1812, the second of eight children. When he was 12, his father was sent to debtors prison. Dickens was forced to quit school and work in a London blacking factory. He would rework that terrible experience into his fiction for the rest of his life.“He was a social r

65、eformer,” says actor Simon Callow, author of a new biography called Charles Dickens and the Great Theatre of the World. “He knew what poverty was. He knew what it was to be rejected, to be cast aside, to live in squalor(悲惨).”And so Dickens wrote with great sympathy for the suffering of innocent and

67、fant(幼儿) days.Yet he burst into an agony of childish grief as the cottage gate closed after him. Wretched as were the little companions in misery he was now leaving behind him, they were the only friends he had ever had.His first book Sketches by Boz came out in 1836. With the appearance of Oliver T

68、wist in London periodicals in 1837, the 25-year-old Dickens became the most popular writer in England. But his first love was theater, and he considered becoming an actor.“When he was actually writing, he became his characters,” says Peter Ackroyd, author of Dickens: Public Life and Private Passion.

69、 “He would get up from his desk, go over to the mirror and mouth the wordsdo the expressions, grimaces(鬼脸), whatever, and then laugh, chuckle to himself, then go back to his desk and write it down.”Dickens created 989 named characters, which increased his popularity. Every one of his major works has

70、 been adapted for either stage or screen. A Christmas Carol inspired more than a dozen films, from Alistair Sims Scrooge in 1951 to Jim Carreys voicing of the same character in Disneys 2009, 3-D animated film.The original 1843 manuscript(手稿) of A Christmas Carol is on display at the Morgan Library.

71、Dickens wrote everything by hand, in tiny script, with a quill pen. Remarkably, the manuscript is both the first and the final draft, says Kiely, the curator. You can see where Dickens has changed the name of the first chapter from “Old Marleys Ghost” to “Marleys Ghost”. Further down the page, he ha

72、s canceled an entire section.“He realizes hes not writing a novel, and he only has a very short time in which to write this,” Kiely explains. “Hes got to keep it tight, in order for it to be published in time for Christmas.”Dickens wrote all the time. He traveled with a portable inkwell and a supply

73、 of quill pens. He was working on his last novel, Our Mutual Friend, en route from France to London when the train he was on crashed.Dickens died five years later in 1870, after a stroke at age 58. As a comic talent and a social reformer, Dickens achievement was extraordinary, says novelist T. C. Bo

75、iographer：“People think of him as a cheerful man. but he was increasingly suffering from depression and a sense of hopelessness. And thats worth knowing. I think its always good to know that great creative individuals have their struggle, their drama.”67. What can probably be reflected in Dickens wo
