19、ll Street tycoon (商业大亨), played for the other participants a video of his daughter reciting aloud a classical Chinese poem. This is not the first time Happy Rogers, the elder daughter of the global investor, has exhibited her fluency in the Chinese language.While it is not uncommon for young Chinese

20、 language learners to recite ancient poems, Happy spoke in classical Chinese with a fluency that could make even some native Chinese speakers envious.And recently, during US President Donald Trumps visit to China, his granddaughter Arabellas recital of Chinese poems went viral on the internet, makin

21、g the five-year-old a “popular figure” among Chinese audiences.There is a long list of foreign celebrities and their children learning Chinese, which includes Amazon founder Jeff Bezos four children and Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg and his daughter.

26、ecome the second-largest economy.CIn the history of ancient Rome, Cicero is widely regarded as the most well-known speech-maker of his time. However, his political career was also a remarkable one. At that time, high political offices in Rome, though technically achieved by winning elections, were a

27、ll controlled by a group of wealthy noble families who had held them for generations. Ciceros family, though noble, was not one of them, nor did it have great wealth. But Cicero had a great deal of political ambition; at a very young age he chose as his basic belief the same one Achilles was said to

28、 have had: to always be the best and overtop the rest. Lacking the advantages of a proper family origin, there were only two career options available. One was a military career, since military success was thought to result from exceptional personal qualities and could lead to popularity and therefor

29、e political opportunity, as was the case much later for American president Ulysses Grant. Cicero, however, was no soldier. He hated war, and served in the army very briefly as a young man.Instead, Cicero chose a career in the law. To prepare for this career, he studied law, rhetoric (修辞学) and philos

30、ophy. When he felt he was ready, he began taking part in legal cases. A career in the law could lead to political success for several reasons, all of which are still relevant today. First, a lawyer would gain a great deal of experience in making speeches. Second, he could also gain exposure and popu

31、larity from cases. Finally, a successful lawyer would build up a network of political connections, which was extremely important in Ciceros time, when political competition was based on loose, changeable networks of personal friendships and commitments. Cicero proved to be an excellent speech- maker

32、 and lawyer, and an outstanding politician. He was elected to each of the principal Roman offices on his first try and at the earliest age at which he was legally allowed to run for them.28. What kind of family did Cicero come from?A. A wealthy family.B. A noble family.C. A powerful family.D. A famo

33、us family.29. What helped Ulysses Grant attain his political position?A. His firm beliefs.B. His impressive speeches.C. His military achievements.D. His personal relationships.30. What would strongly influence Roman politicians career development?A. Their social connections.B. Their partys support.C

34、. Their political principles.D. Their public popularity.31. What does the passage mainly focus on?A. Ciceros family origin.B. Ciceros experience as a lawyer.C. Ciceros life story as a speaker.D. Ciceros road to political success.DOne of the key challenges in urban architecture over the next 50 years

35、 will be figuring out how to squeeze vast numbers of additional people into cities that are already extremely crowded. London, for example, will somehow have to deal with a projected 100,000 extra residents every year. The current plan of building new “ satellite towns” of the city causes a lot of p

36、roblems, but architects are working on ambitious solutions that go vertical instead of horizontal (水平的) in search of space.In terms of population density (密度), London is one of the least crowded major cities in the world. However, the fact remains that the citys population is growing at a rapid rate

37、, and horizontal expansion into the surrounding areas is eating up increasingly important agricultural land, as well as worsening all the transport problems coming with urban growth.Popular Architecture would propose a wholly different solution. The proposal is to go upwards, with vertical towers of

38、 considerable size, each representing an entire new town by the time its completed. Each tower would be 1500 meters high. Besides mere accommodation, each tower would function as an entire town unit, with its own schools, hospitals, parks and gardens, sports facilities, business areas and community

39、spaces. The population density of such a tower could help lower the individual energy requirements of each resident, reducing the ecological problem caused by the population as a whole.While the building itself is unlikely ever to be seriously considered for constructionimagine the numbers of lifts

40、it would need, let alone the possible dangers of open areas at such heights and with such wind exposure-the concept can serve as a conversation-starter for urban planners looking to face the challenges of the current and coming centuries.32. What challenge will urban architects in future have to fac

41、e?A. Accommodating more residents.B. Working out ambitious plans.C. Designing less crowded cities.D. Building new satellite towns.33. What will happen to London through horizontal expansion?A. More land can be saved.B. The safety problems can be solved.C. The population growth can be controlled.D. T

42、he transport problems can be worsened.34. Whats Paragraph 3 mainly about?A. The final solution to city expansion.B. The latest trend of in architecture.C. The design concept of vertical towers.D. The popularity of Vertical towers.35. What does the author think of the idea of building vertical towers

43、?A. Its impractical.B. Its a perfect solution in the current century.C. Itll be started soon.D. Itll become a reality in coming centuries.第二节(共5小题，每小题2分，满分10分）根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Its easy to make a fitness resolution on New Years Eve. 36 According to a recent study, 60 per cent
