All eyes will turn to New York, London, Milan and Paris this month to see which city puts on the best show. New York New York Fashion Week (NYFW) Spring 2020 ki

11、cked off on September 4th, 2019 and ran for approximately eight days. NYFW is considered the most commercial and casual of the four. It is also the only event to allow some fashion school students to participate, bringing a fresh look to the runway. London London Fashion Week (LFW) Spring 2020 came

12、on the heels of NYFW Spring 2020, starting on September 12th, 2019 and running through September 17th, 2019. Once considered a minor player among the “Big Four”, LFW can now command a list of big names as well as promising new designers. London fashion houses have a reputation for being very experim

13、ental and open to new ideas. Milan Fashion Week Spring 2020 moved to Milan on September 17th, 2019. This beautiful Italian city is home to some of the biggest fashion houses and designers in the fashion world, including Armano and Prada.

Each has its own characteristics.BBefore the 1830s, most newspapers were sold through annual subscriptio

17、ns（订阅） in America, usually $8 to $10 a year. Today $8 or $10 seems a small amount of money, but at that time these amounts were forbidding to most citizens. Accordingly, newspapers were read almost only by rich people in politics or the trades. In addition, most newspapers had little in them that wo

18、uld appeal to a mass audience. They were dull and visually forbidding. But the revolution that was taking place in the 1830s would change all that.The trend, then, was toward the penny paper-a term referring to papers made widely available to the public. It meant any inexpensive newspaper; perhaps m

19、ore importantly it meant newspapers that could be bought in single copies on the street.This development did not take place overnight. It had been possible (but not easy) to buy single copies of newspapers before 1830, but this usually meant the reader had to go down to the printers office to purcha

20、se a copy. Street sales were almost unknown. However, within a few years, street sales of newspapers would be commonplace in eastern cities. At first the price of single copies was seldom a penny-usually two or three cents was charged-and some of the older well-known papers charged five or six cents

21、. But the phrase penny paper caught the publics fancy, and soon there would be papers that did indeed sell for only a penny.This new trend of newspapers for the man on the street did not begin well. Some of the early ventures(企业)were immediate failures. Publishers already in business, people who wer

22、e owners of successful papers, had little desire to change the tradition. It took a few youthful and daring businessmen to get the ball rolling.24.Which of the following best describes newspapers in America before the 1830s?A. Academic. B. Inexpensive. C. Unattractive. D. Confidential.25.What did st

23、reet sales mean to newspapers?A. They would be priced higher. B. They could have more readers. C. They would disappear from cities. D. They could regain public trust.26.Who were the newspapers of the new trend targeted at?A. Local politicians. B. Young publishers. C. Rich businessmen. D. Common peop

24、le.27.What can we say about the birth of the penny paper?A. It was a difficult process. B. It was a temporary success.C. It was a robbery of the poor. D. It was a disaster for printers.CI must have always known reading was very important because the first memories I have as a child deal with books.

25、There was not one night that I dont remember mom reading me a storybook by my bedside. I was extremely inspired by the elegant way the words sounded.I always wanted to know what my mom was reading. Hearing mom say, I cant believe whats printed in the newspaper this morning, made me want to grab it o

26、ut of her hands and read it myself. I wanted to be like my mom and know all of the things she knew. So I carried around a book, and each night, just to be like her, I would pretend to be reading.This is how everyone learned to read. We would start off with sentences, then paragraphs, and then storie

27、s. It seemed an unending journey, but even as a six-year-old girl I realized that knowing how to read could open many doors. When mom said, The C-A-N-D-Y is hidden on the top shelf, I knew where the candy was. My progress in reading raised my curiosity, and I wanted to know everything. I often found

28、 myself telling my mom to drive more slowly, so that I could read all of the road signs we passed.Most of my reading through primary, middle and high school was factual reading. I read for knowledge, and to make As on my tests. Occasionally, I would read a novel that was assigned, but I didnt enjoy

29、this type of reading. I liked facts, things that are concrete. I thought anything abstract left too much room for argument.Yet, now that Im growing and the world I once knew as being so simple is becoming more complex, I find myself needing a way to escape. By opening a novel, I can leave behind my

30、burdens and enter into a wonderful and mysterious world where I am now a new character. In these worlds I can become anyone. I dont have to write down what happened or what technique the author was using when he or she wrote this. I just read to relax.Were taught to read because its necessary for mu

31、ch of human understanding. Reading is a vital part of my life. Reading satisfies my desire to keep learning. And Ive found that the possibilities that lie within books are limitless.28. According to Paragraph 3，the authors reading of road signs indicates_A. her growing desire to know the world aroun

32、d her.B. her unique way to locate herselfC. her eagerness to develop her reading abilityD. her effort to remind mom to obey traffic rules29. What was the authors view on factual reading?A. It would help her update test-taking skills.B. It would allow much room for free thinking.C. It would help shap

33、e a realistic and serious attitude to life.D. It would provide true and objective information.30. The author takes novel reading as a way to_.A. explore a fantasy land. B. get away from a confusing worldC. develop a passion for leaning. D. learn about the adult community31. What could be the best ti

34、tle for the passage?A. The Magic of Reading. B. The Pleasure of ReadingC. Growing Up with Reading. D. Reading Makes a Full Man D“You can use me as a last resort（选择）, and if nobody else volunteers，then I will do it.” This was an actual reply from a parent after I put out a request for volunteers for

35、my kids lacrosse（长曲棍球）club.I guess that theres probably some demanding work schedule, or social anxiety around stepping up to help for an unknown sport. She may just need a little persuading. So I try again and tug at the heartstrings. I mention the single parent with four kids running the show and

36、I talk about the dad coaching a team that his kids arent even on At this point the unwilling parent speaks up, “Alright. Yes, Ill do it.”Im secretly relieved because I know theres real power in sharing volunteer responsibilities among many. The unwilling parent organizes the meal schedule, sends out

37、 emails, and collects money for end-of-season gifts. Somewhere along the way, the same parent ends up becoming an invaluable member of the team. The coach is able to focus on the kids while the other parents are relieved to be off the hook for another season. Handing out sliced oranges to bloodthirs

38、ty kids can be as exciting as watching your own kid score a goal.Still, most of us volunteers breathe a sigh of relief when the season comes to a close. That relief is coupled with a deep understanding of why the same people keep coming back for more: Connecting to the community（社区）as you freely giv

39、e your time, money, skills, or services provides a real joy. Volunteering just feels so good.In that sense, Im pretty sure volunteering is more of a selfish act than Id freely like to admit. However, if others benefit in the process, and I get some reward too, does it really matter where my motivati

40、on lies?32.What can we infer about the parent from her reply in paragraph l？A. She knows little about the club. B. She just doesnt want to volunteer.C. She isnt good at sports. D. Shes unable to meet her schedule.33.What does the underlined phrase “tug at the heartstrings” in paragraph 2 mean?A. App

41、eal to feeling. B. Encourage team work.C. Promote good deeds. D. Provide advice.34. What can we learn about the parent from paragraph 3 ?A. She gets interested in lacrosse. B. She is proud of her kids.C. Shell work for another season. D. She becomes a good helper.35. Why does the author like doing v

42、olunteer work?A. It gives her a sense of duty. B. It enables her to work hard.C. It brings her material rewards. D.

43、fe easier. Its worth it to try to smooth things over. 37 It can be difficult to look at family situations objectively, so before trying to mediate disagreement, make sure you look at all sides of the argument. While you shouldnt take sides when trying to mediate, you dont want anyone to think youre

44、overlooking their point of view. Take some time to think about why everyone feels wronged or hurt in the situation. Encourage everyone to control their feelings. Its not uncommon for tensions to run high when discussing family conflict. 38 Try to control the emotional outbursts as much as you can. W

45、hile everyone has a right to their personal feelings, make it clear their feelings must be expressed in an appropriate, productive way. Try hard for forgiveness.
