The Louvre Museum in Paris:
A Complete Guide for Visitors
The Louvre Museum is quite a large museum. The word “museum” may not be enough：the collections are so vast, diverse, and breathtaking that visitors may have the impression of navigating a maze (迷宫)of distinct artistic and cultural worlds.
Housed in the Louvre Palace, the former seat of French royalty，the Louvre emerged in the 12th century as a medieval castle, slowly evolving toward its status as a public arts museum during the French Revolution in the late 18th century. Since then, it has become the globe's most visited museum, and a symbol of French excellence in the arts. The Louvre has eight major thematic departments and 35，000 works of art dating from ancient times to the early modern period.

On the lower ground floor, the Cafe Denon offers snacks and casual meals. Open from 9：30 a．m. to 5：00 p．m.

When I was young, I dreamed of becoming many things. Sometimes, I wished I were an astronaut going up into space, finding new planets and jumping around in a cool space suit. Other times, I imagined being a cowboy in the Wild West, wearing stylish cowboy boots. On other occasions, I pretended to be a famous footballer, using my skills to score lots of goals for my team.
Looking back, I realized that the imagination is a wonderful thing. I was able to create entire environments and scenarios in my head, using nothing more than my brain, and to be able to adapt things in my everyday surroundings to fit the specific story of the day. Growing up with siblings (兄弟姐妹) also helped, as it meant that even bigger stories, as sometimes I could be the hero while on other occasions, I would be the bad guy.
One of my all time favorite memories as a kid was playing in my back garden. I played the role of Indiana Jones, with my younger sister as my assistant and my brother as a bad person. We used everything in our gardens, from the path to the fence, as part of the storyline to create obstacles that needed to be overcome, and we would keep the story going for hours!
My personal favorite was Indiana Jones and the Stolen Easter Eggs, where my brother hid small chocolate eggs around the garden and my sister and I had to find them by answering questions or solving a puzzle. It was difficult, but eventually we found all the eggs and shared them together.
Since then, I have seen many great things and met many amazing people. The elements of fun and variety of my imagination are what I try to bring into every part of my life, and I enjoy sharing with and hearing about other people's stories, too.

For sports fans, there's nothing better than watching a live event on TV or at a sports venue (场地). But there's nothing worse than that event being called off because of bad weather. Bad light, a waterlogged pitch (场地)or excessive heat can cause matches to be postponed. But according to the latest research, extreme weather might be disrupting (打乱) the sporting calendar more than ever in the future.
In one sport, golf, major tournaments like The Open are already predicted to be victims of our changing climate. In the UK, an organization called The Climate Coalition says that golf courses such as St Andrews could be under water by the end of the century if sea levels rise even slightly. It told the BBC that its research predicts “cancelled football matches, flooded cricket grounds and golf courses crumbling into the sea.”
The threat to sporting fixtures (体育赛事) from climate change has been further highlighted in a new report, commissioned by the Rapid Transition Alliance. Writing about this for the BBC, Matt McGrath says that “By 2050, it's estimated that almost one in four English football league grounds can expect flooding every year.” This will mean fewer matches played, less opportunity to watch the beautiful game and reduced revenue (收入) from ticket sales.
Cricket also faces huge challenges globally as temperatures rise in places like India, Australia and the West Indies. The report says that stadiums in Adelaide and Perth will see a 60% increase in days with temperatures over 40℃ over the next decade.
Of course, we know that the solution lies with reducing our carbon footprint. We could travel less to attend sports events, and reduce our waste when we do go. But this latest report finds that sports leaders are generally failing to address the issue seriously. However, because sport is universally popular and can be very influential, maybe it should be players, teams and their sponsors who promote a carbon neutral message to help protect sporting venues—before it's “game over”．
28．Which of the following sports won't be affected by extreme weather according to the passage
A．Golf. B．Table tennis.
C．Football. D．Cricket.
29．Why might revenue from football league tickets be reduced by 2050
A．The number of people who are interested in football matches is expected to decrease.
B．The number of football players is expected to decrease.
C．The prices of football tickets are expected to go down.
D．Some football grounds are expected to be flooded.
30．What can we learn from the passage
A．Sports fans like watching a live event on TV better than at a sports venue.
B．Golf courses such as St Andrews could not be flooded if sea levels rise a little.
C．Cricket stadiums in Adelaide and Perth will get very hot over the next decade.
D．Sports leaders take the effects of climate change very seriously.
31．What's the best title for the passage
A．Sport and Sporting Venues
B．Sport and Challenges
C．Sport and Climate Change
D．Sport and Revenue

Dr. Nancy Roman, born in 1925, who was celebrated as a pioneer for female scientists and had advanced the launch of the Hubble Space Telescope, died on Dec. 25, 2018.
When Nancy Roman asked for permission to take a second algebra (代数) course in high school，a teacher demanded to know “what lady would take mathematics instead of Latin”．In college, a professor admitted that he often tried to prevent women from majoring in physics but Nancy stuck to it.And after receiving Doctor's degree in astronomy, she found a professional home at NASA (美国宇航局). In 1959, Dr.Roman became the first chief of astronomy at NASA headquarters, a role that made her one of the agency's first female leaders.
Dr. Roman spent much of her career helping develop, fund and promote technology that would help scientists see more clearly beyond Earth's atmosphere.But her most well known work was perhaps leading to design the Hubble Space Telescope, the first major telescope to be sent into space for the purpose of gathering photographs and data from the universe.She was, therefore, named as “the mother of Hubble”．
“She made it possible to get the early telescope up into space to learn what needed to be learned，”said science historian Bob Zimmerman, “and her hard nosed nature helped get the telescope built.”
The telescope did not launch until 1990, a little more than a decade after Dr. Roman retired, but when it did, its photographs of the universe thrilled the world. “I am glad，” she once told Science, “I ignored the people who told me that I could not be an astronomer.”
32．What can we conclude from the teacher's reaction to Nancy Roman's application for taking a second algebra course
A．The teacher doubted it.
B．The teacher didn't care about it.
C．The teacher accepted it at once.
D．The teacher was strongly against it.
33．What was the most famous achievement of Nancy Roman's work
A．She was one of the founders of NASA.
B．She proved the black hole really existed.
C．She was the first female astronomer in the world.
D．She led to design the Hubble Space Telescope.
34．When did Dr.Nancy Roman probably retire
A．In 1969. B．In 1979.
C．In 1990. D．In 2000.
35．What can we learn from Dr.Nancy Roman's words in the last paragraph
A．She was very proud of what she had done for the country.
B．She thought highly of the people who hadn't believed her.
C．She was delighted to have become an astronomer in spite of the prejudice on her.
D．She had hard nosed nature and never cared about other people's opinions.

阅读下面的短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
At some point when you were a child, a trusted adult likely told you that if you held a seashell up to your ear, you'd hear the ocean. 36.________ Seashells are not special capsules that have stored the sounds of their native homes.
But what exactly is that rushing sound you're hearing 37.________ “The sound of an empty shell held up to the ear is created by echoes (回声) from sounds made in the environment.”Geerat J. Vermeil, a distinguished professor of Earth and Planetary Sciences at the University of California, told us.
38．________ Other structures with openings, like empty bowls or bottles, can produce similar sounds. “When the noise around us hits the internal surface of this hard seashell, multiple reflection occurs，” said Vermeil. “Whether you hold a seashell or the mouth of an empty bowl around your ear, you experience the ocean like sound quality as a result of a phenomenon called ‘resonance’．
39．________ It says that you're hearing the sound of your own rushing blood in your body. But scientists also clarify that it doesn't change with variation of pulse or blood pressure. “All this is perhaps a bit unimportant, but a more interesting question is what controls the frequencies of echoes”， Vermeil added，indicating that there's a need for further research into shape, volume and shell thickness in relation to pitch. 40.________ Actually, if you put a shell to your ear on the beach, the sounds you hear will include partly some ocean noises.
A．The same goes for shells.
B．The answer is less mystical.
C．This effect is not limited to shells.
D．Now you probably know that this is not true.
E．Scientists are working hard to find the answer.
F．Maybe the original myth is not completely false.
G．There's another explanation for the rushing sound in a seashell.

Sally had trouble speaking in social situations. I'm a registered nurse and I love kids and dogs. I wanted to use Bella to bring her joy, comfort and confidence the way only a dog can.
That morning in January, her teacher led us to a room by the school office. “Sally hasn't spoken outside her home in the last two years，” she told me. “Her parents have taken her to doctors, but nothing has worked.” A little girl stood shyly just inside the doorway. Her eyes brightened when noticing my dog.
“This is Isabella Rose. I call her Bella，” I said. “Would you like to pet her She doesn't know anyone here and she'd like to meet you. She does tricks. Would you like to see？”
Sally nodded. I motioned with my hand. Bella lay down and then rolled over. Sally's eyes cheered up. “She'll do it for you too，” I said. “I can teach you.”
I showed Sally the hand signals for various commands. She was a natural with Bella. Soon Sally was able to take Bella at her pace all on her own. I could see her standing taller, more sure of herself each time we met.
One morning, when she was working with Bella, I heard a tiny voice, barely a whisper: “Good dog.” Sally didn't take her eyes off Bella, but I wanted to jump for joy. Sally spoke a little more each week, only to Bella at first, but then to me. Later, she started giving voice commands with her hand signals and her confidence rose. Still, she hadn't spoken in her classroom.
“Could you bring Bella to my class and show the other kids her tricks？” Sally asked me one day. An idea struck me. “Why don't you do it？” I said. “I know you can. You're as good with Bella as I am.” Now, Sally stood nervously in front of her kindergarten class, with Bella sitting calmly by her side. Her classmates focused on Sally, waiting for her to speak.

Bill Gates, an American inventor, computer programmer and businessman, is reportedly worth nearly $80 billion. He founded and was head of Microsoft for years.
Gates was born to a rich family in the state of Washington. His father was a lawyer, and his mother was a banker. He is famous for being taken as the father of the modern computer. He studied at Harvard University but did not graduate because of his desire to develop new software.
As a 13 year old student, Gates was introduced to computer programming. In 1975, Gates spoke to a company called Micro Instrumentation and Telemetry Systems (MITS) . He convinced the owner of the company that he had written a program that would work well and make big money. The owner bought into Gates' inventions， and the two men reached an agreement to develop software for the company. Then the Microsoft Company was born.
Gates went on to develop the Windows operating system with the partner IBM. The two companies had differences though, and their partnership ended quickly. Gates worked as CEO until 2000. He remained active with the company for several years before leaving the company in 2008. In 2014, Bill Gates became the technical advisor of the firm.

第四部分 写作(共两节，满分40分)
第一节(满分15分)
One possible version：
Dear_Alice，
I'm terribly sorry to tell you that tomorrow morning, I can't go to the paper cut exhibition being held in the city museum, because my mother is in hospital now.
This morning, my mother had a sudden fall when she was having a walk in the park and had her left arm broken. She was rushed to hospital at once. The doctor said she had to stay in hospital for at least five days. Since my father is on business now, I have to take care of her until next Monday when my father comes back.
I'm awfully sorry for the sudden change of the plan. And I'm wondering whether it is OK if we go to the exhibition next Saturday morning.
Yours，
Li_Hua
第二节(满分25分)
One possible version：
But not a word came out. Sally had been so excited about putting on a dog show for her class. She had been quite familiar with the hand signals and had practiced for weeks. Now her eyes found mine. I nodded encouragingly. She took a deep breath and opened her mouth. Her mouth—then her whole body—seemed to close in on itself in defeat. Sally stood off to the side, head down. I felt awful. Sally returned to her seat, not looking at anyone, not even Bella.
The next week, she told me she wanted to try again, looking up at me with determination. “Are you sure？” I asked. “You don't want to wait till next year？” “No，” she said. “Today, I can do it.” Then we headed to Sally's classroom. The kids were sitting in a circle on the floor listening to the teacher. We walked to the front of the room. I shook Sally's hands and stepped back. For a few seconds, she stood silently, staring at her classmates. Finally she whispered, “This is Isabella Rose.” Then, a little louder with more confidence, “Isabella Rose.”
