Some live performance rooms on this planet are wonderful. They can make even a single note sound wonderful. Here are four famous concert halls around the world. Enjoy!
Cidade das Artes (Rio de Janeiro, Brazil)
Opened in 2013, this is one of the largest modern concert halls in South America. This building was designed by Christian de Portzampare. Named “City of Arts”, this is a cultural building group that hosts art exhibitions, dance events, comedy shows and workshops. The Cidade has excellent sound qualities as a result of being designed by the Chinese engineer XuYaping.
Wiener Musikverein (Vienna Austria)
Designed by Theophil Hansen, this neoclassical building opened its doors in 1870 and is the home of the Vienna Philharmonic Orchestra, one of the most popular orchestras (交响乐团) in the world. It was here in 1913 that the famous concert Skandalkonzert took place. This is also the place where every New Year’s day a famous traditional symphonic concert is performed.
Teatro all a Scala (Milan, Italy)
One of the most important concert halls for operatic music was completed in 1778. This building also hosts a museum and one of the world’s most famous academies (学院) where young talents are trained for ballet performances. This concert hall was rebuilt over the TeatroRegio Ducale which was destroyed by a fire in 1776. It saw the premieres (初次演出) of some of the most impressive works in the history of the opera, such as Madama Butterfly and Turandot by Giacomo Puccini.
Carnegie Hall (New York, USA)
Designed by William Burnet Tuthill, it is one of the most famous concert halls in the world for both classical music and popular music. It opened its doors in 1791 with a concert conducted in part by Pyotr Tchaikovsky. Many famous works had their world premieres here, including Antonin Dvorak’s New World Symphony and George Gershwin’s An American in Paris.

Sometimes we fail to give enough attention to the heroes closest to us. That was the case with my family. My family knew my father had been a WWII soldier. But because he didn’t discuss his experience, we didn’t dig too deeply.
We lost him this past Christmas and when sorting out (整理) his things at home, we discovered what a truly great hero he was. He was once in college and majored in engineering. At the beginning of the war, he was drafted into the army, responding to the call. Just a few years later, he honorably left the army and returned home. He had also been awarded the Purple Heart Medal, the Silver Star Medal and the Bronze Star Medal.
How I wish we had taken the time to learn more about his stories in the war! He would have answered questions if we had done a little research and known what to ask. Fortunately, there was one family member who took time to do just that. This cousin was interested in WWII. And he researched the areas where my father served. We now know a small part of my father’s story from this cousin. We learned that the Silver Star Medal was awarded to my father because he carried a wounded soldier to safety through a minefield (布雷区). And he was once in several well-known fights.
This year, Memorial Day has a deeper meaning for my family because we have known more about my father’s service in the army. Many activities were held by my family in memory of my father. We’re also grateful to that cousin who took the time to find out more.
I hope you can do the same while your heroes are still with you. Find out as much as you can. Even if they don’t like to talk about their experiences and sacrifices (牺牲), chances are that they’ll answer direct questions if you do a little digging. You’ll be richly rewarded with a family story for generations to come.

Conflict (冲突) between parents and children is normal. It is part of family life. But conflict that goes on for a long time and gets worse over time can cause stress and can hurt relationships. It is important to communicate with each other and bring conflict to a peaceful solution. You can do this through compromise (让步) or by agreeing to disagree. No matter what else you do, communicate with your children and make sure they know that you love them. This can make dealing with conflict easier and more effective.
In some cases, you may have to change your behaviour to settle a conflict with your child. Some of your child’s behaviour may be a reaction to your behaviour. So, if you want your child to behave in a certain way, one way may be to change your behaviour so that your child will follow your model.
But children should be responsible for their own actions — and the results. All parents want to protect their children. But in some cases, unless the child is in physical danger, it may be best to let the child deal with the negative results of things they do.
Collaborate (合作) to develop specific rules and write them down. These may include statements such as how much time they can spend on electronics, and when homework must be completed. Not only are you modeling for your kids how to work together and resolve differences, but you also are working out important guidelines for how your house will operate.
Have clear results for misconduct. Thus, if your child disobey the rules, make it clear that the right to use the toy will be taken away because of his inability to play with it responsibly. Additionally, create routines so that they know when they have free time to themselves after they have completed tasks set out for them. These could include helping feed the family pet, taking a shower, or finishing homework.
8. What’s the key to solving the conflict between parents and children
A. Advising children to give in. B. Changing behavior.
C. Reaching an understanding. D. Developing rules.
9. Why do parents need to change their behavior first in the conflict
A. To compromise with their children.
B. To be responsible for their actions.
C. To find a reason to punish children.
D. To set a good example for children.
10. What should parents do if the child causes something bad to happen
A. Teach him how to solve it.
B. Handle the situation for him.
C. Let him deal with it himself.
D. Share the solutions with him.
11. What does the underlined word “misconduct” in Paragraph 5 mean
A. Improper behavior. B. Strict rules.
C. Good performances. D. Frank words.
【答案】8. C 9. D 10. C 11. A
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文，文章主要讲述了如何解决父母和孩子之间的冲突。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段中“It is important to communicate with each other and bring conflict to a peaceful solution. (重要的是相互沟通，以和平方式解决冲突.)”和“No matter what else you do, communicate with your children and make sure they know that you love them. (不管你做什么，和你的孩子交流，确保他们知道你爱他们.)”可知，解决父母和孩子冲突的关键是互相沟通和理解，故选C。
【9题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中“So, if you want your child to behave in a certain way, one way may be to change your behaviour so that your child will follow your model. (所以，如果你想让你的孩子以某种方式行事，一种方法可能是改变你的行为，这样你的孩子就会以你为榜样。)”可知，父母首先需在冲突中改变自己的行为，这是为了给孩子树立榜样，故选D。
【10题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段中“But in some cases, unless the child is in physical danger, it may be best to let the child deal with the negative results of things they do. (但在某些情况下，除非孩子有身体上的危险，否则最好让孩子自己处理他们所做的事情的负面结果。)”可知，如果孩子造成不好的事情发生，父母应让孩子自己去处理，故选C。
【11题详解】
词句猜测题。根据划线词后一句“Thus, if your child disobey the rules, make it clear that the right to use the toy will be taken away because of his inability to play with it responsibly. (因此，如果你的孩子不遵守规则，明确告诉他，因为他不能负责任地玩玩具，他将被剥夺使用玩具的权利。)”可知，本段是说明确告知孩子不当行为的后果，misconduct意为“不当行为”，故选A。
D
For many years, a great number of scientists have accepted the idea that dinosaurs were killed by an asteroid (小行星), but another idea is now gaining attention. New research suggests that big volcanic eruptions (火山喷发) may have contributed to the end of dinosaurs.
About 66 million years ago, an asteroid hit the earth. The impact caused earthquakes and tsunamis(very large sea wave). Many scientists believe this allowed about 75% of all plants and animals on the earth to die off, including dinosaurs.
Now researchers from Dartmouth College in New Hampshire believe that the asteroid alone did not cause the mass extinction (灭绝) but that volcanoes may also have played a part. A team of scientists were studying the Deccan Plateau, a large mountainous area in southern India. They found signs of volcanic rock shaped into forms called basalt floods. Volcanic rocks are formed when a volcano erupts and sends out lava (岩浆), which then cools and becomes solid. Basalt floods are formed when either several small eruptions or one extremely large eruption floods huge areas of land with lava. These eruptions can block out the sun with ash (火山灰), stop plants from growing, and kill off animals’ food supplies.
The scientists discovered that the basalt rocks formed at the time dinosaurs died out. This is a strong clue that a huge volcanic eruption could have contributed to the death of dinosaurs. The team called the eruption and asteroid a double-punch, which had dinosaurs wiped out from the planet completely.
There have been several mass extinctions, including the one that killed dinosaurs. Some of the other extinctions were caused by volcanoes, which supports the new idea that a volcano could have been involved in this one. Brenhin Keller said it is difficult to be sure which volcanic eruption caused which mass extinction. But, Keller said, “The results make it hard to pay no attention to the role of volcanism in extinction.”
12. According to new research, what may contribute to the extinction of dinosaurs
A. Earthquakes. B. Volcanic eruptions.
C. Tsunamis. D. Asteroid impacts.
13. What does the third paragraph focus on
A. Why volcanic rocks are formed.
B. When dinosaurs became extinct.
C. Where volcanic eruptions happen.
D. How volcanoes killed dinosaurs.
14. Which strongly proved the new finding of dinosaur extinction
A. One extremely large volcano erupted with lava.
B. Dinosaurs died out when basalt rocks formed.
C. Volcano lava and ash were harmful to dinosaurs.
D. Many asteroids hit the earth 66 million years ago.
15. What is Keller’s attitude towards the new finding
A. Supportive. B. Doubtful. C. Unclear. D. Negative.
【答案】12. B 13. D 14. B 15. A
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了新的研究表明，大规模的火山爆发可能导致了恐龙的灭绝。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段中“New research suggests that big volcanic eruptions (火山喷发) may have contributed to the end of dinosaurs.(新的研究表明，大规模的火山爆发可能导致了恐龙的灭绝)”可知，新的研究表明，大规模的火山爆发可能导致了恐龙的灭绝，故选B。
【13题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第三段中“A team of scientists were studying the Deccan Plateau, a large mountainous area in southern India. They found signs of volcanic rock shaped into forms called basalt floods. Volcanic rocks are formed when a volcano erupts and sends out lava (岩浆), which then cools and becomes solid. Basalt floods are formed when either several small eruptions or one extremely large eruption floods huge areas of land with lava. These eruptions can block out the sun with ash ( 火山灰), stop plants from growing, and kill off animals’ food supplies.(一组科学家正在研究德干高原，这是印度南部的一个大山区。他们发现了火山岩形成玄武岩洪水的迹象。火山岩是火山喷发时形成的，喷出的熔岩冷却后变成固体。玄武岩洪水形成时，无论是几个小喷发或一个极大的喷发洪水的大面积土地与熔岩。这些火山喷发可以用火山灰挡住太阳，阻止植物生长，并且杀死动物的食物供应。)”可知，第三段重点讲了火山是如何杀死恐龙的。故选D。
【14题详解】
细节理解题。根据倒数第二段中“The scientists discovered that the basalt rocks formed at the time dinosaurs died out. This is a strong clue that a huge volcanic eruption could have contributed to the death of dinosaurs. (科学家们发现玄武岩形成于恐龙灭绝的时期。这是一个强有力的线索，表明一个巨大的火山喷发类型可能导致了恐龙的死亡。)”可知，玄武岩形成时，恐龙灭绝了，这有力地证明了恐龙灭绝的新发现，故选B。
【15题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段中“But, Keller said, “The results make it hard to pay no attention to the role of volcanism in extinction.”(但是，Keller说，“研究结果使我们很难不去注意火山作用在灭绝中的作用。”)”可推知，Keller对这项新发现持赞成的态度，故选A。

Sometimes we fail to give enough attention to the heroes closest to us. That was the case with my family. My family knew my father had been a WWII soldier. But because he didn’t discuss his experience, we didn’t dig too deeply.
We lost him this past Christmas and when sorting out (整理) his things at home, we discovered what a truly great hero he was. He was once in college and majored in engineering. At the beginning of the war, he was drafted into the army, responding to the call. Just a few years later, he honorably left the army and returned home. He had also been awarded the Purple Heart Medal, the Silver Star Medal and the Bronze Star Medal.
How I wish we had taken the time to learn more about his stories in the war! He would have answered questions if we had done a little research and known what to ask. Fortunately, there was one family member who took time to do just that. This cousin was interested in WWII. And he researched the areas where my father served. We now know a small part of my father’s story from this cousin. We learned that the Silver Star Medal was awarded to my father because he carried a wounded soldier to safety through a minefield (布雷区). And he was once in several well-known fights.
This year, Memorial Day has a deeper meaning for my family because we have known more about my father’s service in the army. Many activities were held by my family in memory of my father. We’re also grateful to that cousin who took the time to find out more.
I hope you can do the same while your heroes are still with you. Find out as much as you can. Even if they don’t like to talk about their experiences and sacrifices (牺牲), chances are that they’ll answer direct questions if you do a little digging. You’ll be richly rewarded with a family story for generations to come.
4. The author knew his father was a great hero when ________.
A. he organized his father’s things left
B. his cousin told him his father’s story
C. they spent the past Christmas together
D. his father left the army with many honors
5. How did the author’s father win the Silver Star Medal
A By killing enemies in a minefield.
B. By keeping details in battles secret.

D. By taking part in some famous fights.
6. Which of the following can best describe the author’s father
A. Active and easygoing. B. Helpful and proud.
C. Fearless and talkative. D. Brave and modest.
7. What does the author suggest we do in the last paragraph

Conflict (冲突) between parents and children is normal. It is part of family life. But conflict that goes on for a long time and gets worse over time can cause stress and can hurt relationships. It is important to communicate with each other and bring conflict to a peaceful solution. You can do this through compromise (让步) or by agreeing to disagree. No matter what else you do, communicate with your children and make sure they know that you love them. This can make dealing with conflict easier and more effective.
In some cases, you may have to change your behaviour to settle a conflict with your child. Some of your child’s behaviour may be a reaction to your behaviour. So, if you want your child to behave in a certain way, one way may be to change your behaviour so that your child will follow your model.
But children should be responsible for their own actions — and the results. All parents want to protect their children. But in some cases, unless the child is in physical danger, it may be best to let the child deal with the negative results of things they do.
Collaborate (合作) to develop specific rules and write them down. These may include statements such as how much time they can spend on electronics, and when homework must be completed. Not only are you modeling for your kids how to work together and resolve differences, but you also are working out important guidelines for how your house will operate.
Have clear results for misconduct. Thus, if your child disobey the rules, make it clear that the right to use the toy will be taken away because of his inability to play with it responsibly. Additionally, create routines so that they know when they have free time to themselves after they have completed tasks set out for them. These could include helping feed the family pet, taking a shower, or finishing homework.
8. What’s the key to solving the conflict between parents and children
A. Advising children to give in. B. Changing behavior.
C. Reaching an understanding. D. Developing rules.
9. Why do parents need to change their behavior first in the conflict
A. To compromise with their children.
B. To be responsible for their actions.
C. To find a reason to punish children.
D. To set a good example for children.
10. What should parents do if the child causes something bad to happen
A. Teach him how to solve it.
B. Handle the situation for him.
C. Let him deal with it himself.
D. Share the solutions with him.
11. What does the underlined word “misconduct” in Paragraph 5 mean
A. Improper behavior. B. Strict rules.
C. Good performances. D. Frank words.

For many years, a great number of scientists have accepted the idea that dinosaurs were killed by an asteroid (小行星), but another idea is now gaining attention. New research suggests that big volcanic eruptions (火山喷发) may have contributed to the end of dinosaurs.
About 66 million years ago, an asteroid hit the earth. The impact caused earthquakes and tsunamis(very large sea wave). Many scientists believe this allowed about 75% of all plants and animals on the earth to die off, including dinosaurs.
Now researchers from Dartmouth College in New Hampshire believe that the asteroid alone did not cause the mass extinction (灭绝) but that volcanoes may also have played a part. A team of scientists were studying the Deccan Plateau, a large mountainous area in southern India. They found signs of volcanic rock shaped into forms called basalt floods. Volcanic rocks are formed when a volcano erupts and sends out lava (岩浆), which then cools and becomes solid. Basalt floods are formed when either several small eruptions or one extremely large eruption floods huge areas of land with lava. These eruptions can block out the sun with ash (火山灰), stop plants from growing, and kill off animals’ food supplies.
The scientists discovered that the basalt rocks formed at the time dinosaurs died out. This is a strong clue that a huge volcanic eruption could have contributed to the death of dinosaurs. The team called the eruption and asteroid a double-punch, which had dinosaurs wiped out from the planet completely.
There have been several mass extinctions, including the one that killed dinosaurs. Some of the other extinctions were caused by volcanoes, which supports the new idea that a volcano could have been involved in this one. Brenhin Keller said it is difficult to be sure which volcanic eruption caused which mass extinction. But, Keller said, “The results make it hard to pay no attention to the role of volcanism in extinction.”
12. According to new research, what may contribute to the extinction of dinosaurs
A. Earthquakes. B. Volcanic eruptions.
C. Tsunamis. D. Asteroid impacts.
13. What does the third paragraph focus on
A. Why volcanic rocks are formed.
B. When dinosaurs became extinct.
C. Where volcanic eruptions happen.
D. How volcanoes killed dinosaurs.
14. Which strongly proved the new finding of dinosaur extinction
A. One extremely large volcano erupted with lava.
B. Dinosaurs died out when basalt rocks formed.
C. Volcano lava and ash were harmful to dinosaurs.
D. Many asteroids hit the earth 66 million years ago.
15. What is Keller’s attitude towards the new finding
A. Supportive. B. Doubtful. C. Unclear. D. Negative.
