In this digital age, we search almost everything online before we decide what to do. According to a US-based business reviewing website, the top searches at different times of the night in different European countries vary a lot. Below are some of the more interesting findings. Take a look.
Italy：While most Europeans are searching for restaurants or bars around 6：00 pm, the Italians are searching for massages, shoes and job agencies.
Germany: Coming from perhaps the most organized and efficient country, the average German is attracted to food and drink. Having looked up restaurants and bars earlier in the evening, they've already been searching for breakfast and brunch by 9：00 pm.
UK: Karaoke is one of the most popular pastimes in Asia, but in Europe, the UK seems to be the only nation to look first for karaoke bars in its Internet searches, roughly around 9：00 pm. Later into the night, Britons are going to 24-hour pharmacies by 10：00 pm, and then there's a steady interest in 24-hour food stores and delivery, until 1：00 am.
France: The French call it a day online quite early, at about 10：00 pm. But they don't do it until they've had a chance to put their dancing shoes on, after searching for “nightclub” and “dance”．
Spain: The Spanish seem to be quite practical. They search for elementary schools and dermatology (皮肤科) at 10：00 pm, followed by swimming lessons at midnight.
语篇解读：本文是一篇应用文。文章主要介绍了欧洲不同国家的网民在不同时段搜索不同内容的情况。
1．A man searching for education information online often probably comes from .
A．Germany B．UK
C．France D．Spain
解析：细节理解题。根据Spain部分中的“They search for elementary schools”可知，经常上网搜索教育信息的很有可能是西班牙人。

2．What can we learn from the text
A．The Italians don't like restaurants or bars.
B．UK is considered the most organized country.
C．Asian people often look for karaoke first online.
D．Usually French people end their online search early.
解析：细节理解题。根据France部分中的“The French call it a day online quite early”可知，法国人结束上网的时间比较早。
√

In many of artist Liu Chang's digital art projects, she explores the deeper connections human beings have with nature and technology as a whole, and tries to use technology to remind people of the beauty, love and moment in life that we have and ignore in the digital world.
“When you leave, there will be no photo and no proof, but you were there, no doubt, and you can only embrace this flickering
moment，” Liu said while expressing the reason behind not wanting photos taken in front of her interactive video installation, a project she named “Random Walker”．
On the other hand, Liu has truly incorporated the gift that technology has brought her.In Nature and Algorithm, she used algorithm in programming images of nature and landscape.
“Whether it's nature, technology or us as human beings in between, the evolution that nature undergoes revolves around human beings, the two influencing each other symbiotically，” she said.
As her work is juxtaposing, it is also calming and aesthetically challenging, asking us to reexamine our relationships with nature and technology.Liu's work not only makes us take interest in works that are visually attractive, but also encourages us to enjoy art from more dimensions.
“This is perhaps how the era of big data and smartphones has shifted our attention and narrowed our views.For instance, when we go out for dinner but don't take a picture, post it on the social media, does it mean that this dinner didn't happen This is also why I didn't like photos to be taken at the exhibition of ‘Random Walker’： you cannot capture the moment by just taking a photo of it anyway.The best way to interact with the device in this project was to simply look at it.You could just stare and go into a long meditation.”
语篇解读：本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍了艺术家刘畅通过数字艺术项目，试图用技术来提醒人们在数字世界中我们所拥有和忽略的生活中的美、爱和时刻，并介绍了她对这一项目的看法和其作品的一些特点。
4．What is the purpose of Liu Chang's project “Random Walker”？
A．To help people enjoy the beauty in life.
B．To remind people of the environmental problems.
C．To reexamine the relationship between humans and nature.
D．To show the importance of technology in environmental protection.
√
解析：细节理解题。根据第一段可知，刘畅的“随机行者”项目的目的是帮助人们享受生活中的美。
5．What would Liu Chang hate to see at the exhibition
A．That people watched her videos.
B．That visitors took photos of her works.
C．That her friends brought her birthday gifts.
D．That algorithm was used in digital art projects.
√
解析：细节理解题。根据最后一段第三句可知，刘畅在展览会上不喜欢看到的是参观者对她的作品拍照。
6．What does the underlined word “gift” in Paragraph 3 refer to
A．Algorithm in photo making.
B．The evolution of nature.
C．Digital exhibition.
D．Natural landscape.
√
解析：词义猜测题。根据画线词后文“In Nature and Algorithm, she used algorithm in programming images of nature and landscape.”可知，刘畅在《自然与算法》中，用算法对自然和景观的图像进行编程，并且将这种照片制作中的算法运用到了作品当中。故画线词指的是“照片制作中的算法”。
7．Which of the following statements is TRUE
A．Big data and smartphones change people's view of nature.
B．We'd better not take photos while having dinner.
C．One can enjoy Liu's works by taking photos.
D．Liu's works are difficult to understand.
√
解析：细节理解题。根据倒数第二段内容以及最后一段最后两句可知，刘畅的作品是并置的，也是平静和美学上的挑战，要求我们重新审视我们与自然和技术的关系。最好的办法是盯着看，然后进行长时间的冥想。由此可知，D项“刘的作品很难理解”正确。

Ⅰ.阅读理解
语篇解读：本文是一篇应用文。文章主要介绍了欧洲不同国家的网民在不同时段搜索不同内容的情况。
1．选D 细节理解题。根据Spain部分中的“They search for elementary schools”可知，经常上网搜索教育信息的很有可能是西班牙人。
2．选D 细节理解题。根据France部分中的“The French call it a day online quite early”可知，法国人结束上网的时间比较早。
3．选B 文章出处题。通读全文可知，文章主要介绍了欧洲不同国家的网民搜索的内容的情况，这些内容与不同国家的人们的生活方式有关。由此可推知，文章最有可能选自某杂志的“生活方式”栏目。
语篇解读：本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍了艺术家刘畅通过数字艺术项目，试图用技术来提醒人们在数字世界中我们所拥有和忽略的生活中的美、爱和时刻，并介绍了她对这一项目的看法和其作品的一些特点。
4．选A 细节理解题。根据第一段可知，刘畅的“随机行者”项目的目的是帮助人们享受生活中的美。
5．选B 细节理解题。根据最后一段第三句可知，刘畅在展览会上不喜欢看到的是参观者对她的作品拍照。
6．选A 词义猜测题。根据画线词后文“In Nature and Algorithm, she used algorithm in programming images of nature and landscape.”可知，刘畅在《自然与算法》中，用算法对自然和景观的图像进行编程，并且将这种照片制作中的算法运用到了作品当中。故画线词指的是“照片制作中的算法”。
7．选D 细节理解题。根据倒数第二段内容以及最后一段最后两句可知，刘畅的作品是并置的，也是平静和美学上的挑战，要求我们重新审视我们与自然和技术的关系。最好的办法是盯着看，然后进行长时间的冥想。由此可知，D项“刘的作品很难理解”正确。
