Four famous classic Italian writers
When it comes to Italian literature, many people come up with Dante. But there are many other famous Italian authors. Below are four recommended writers and their masterpieces.
Ludovico Ariosto (1474-1533)
Ariosto is best known for his epic(史诗般的) poem Orlando Furioso, which was published in 1977. As a poet always with new ideas, Ariosto invented the way of“singing the poem to the audience”. The poem presents a rich variety of characters, which has been an encouragement for many paintings and musical works.
Italo Calvino (1923-1985)
Calvin o was the author of If on a Winter's Night a Traveler published in 1979. The novel differs from others for its unique description of a frame story — a unifying story within which several tales are related. It has encouraged musicians like Sting to create their works. At the time of his death in 1985, Calvin o was one of the world's most translated Italian writers.
Umberto Eco (1932-2016)
Eco wrote The Name of the Rose, a historical murder mystery novel published in 1980. In the story, he skilfully applied the use of signs and symbols to it. A number of his books deal with the meaning and understanding of communication.
Alessandro Manzoni (1785-1873)
Manzoni is most famous for his novel The Betrothed published in 1827. The novel was regarded to be connected with Risorgimento, the Italian unification movement in the 19th century. Probably we can say, without this great novelist and this masterpiece of world literature, Italy wouldn't be Italy.
21. What can we know about Orlando Furioso
A. It has influenced musical works. B. It was published in 1979.
C. It was written by Manzoni. D. It has been translated into many languages.
22. What can readers probably find in The Name of the Rose
A. A unique describing style. B. The use of signs and symbols.
C. A mix of new ideas. D. The history of a movement.
23. Whose work is related to the formation of Italy
A. Ludovico Ariosto. B. Italo Calvino.
C. Umberto Eco. D. Alessandro Manzoni.
B
When I was 12 years old, I already knew that my teen years were going to be the worst years of my life. I felt completely alone in my small town.
But by starting to do volunteer work when I was 14,I turned my problem into a passion for helping others. The opportunity to practice kindness made me feel like my life had a greater purpose. The more positive energy I shared, the more kindness and appreciation I received. I realized that my purpose in life would be to reach out to people, specifically teenagers, and help them feel less alone.
Books were my true friends back then. I was so thankful that the authors wrote those books. The kindness they offered me with their books saved my life. One of my biggest dreams was to become an author so I could write books that would help other teenagers the way those books helped me.
After surviving terrible experiences at school and at home, I made a choice to take the optimistic, positive road in the next steps of my journey. My dream career, one I thought was only possible for the authors I loved, is what I am doing now. I have been a full-time author of teen novels since 2007 and am grateful for this amazing opportunity to reach out to readers every single day.
Kindness saved me when I needed help the most. Even small acts of kindness can change someone's life. You never know what someone else is going through. But by practicing daily kindness, you become an architect of positive change.
24. What was the author's life like when he was 12
A. Boring. B. Unpleasant.
C. Peaceful. D. Meaningful.
25. How did the volunteer work benefit the author
A. It made him popular in his town.
B. It helped him understand others' lives better.
C. It helped him find the meaning of life..
D. It helped to shape his dream career.
26. Why did the author choose writing as his job
A. He wanted to share his school experiences.
B. He could pass positive energy to readers.
C. He was inspired by his teacher.
D. He found he had a talent for writing.
27. What does the author suggest readers do in the last paragraph
A. Say no to bullies bravely.
B. Make positive changes in their lives.
C. Treat others with kindness in daily life.
D. Learn to care more about others' feelings.
C
At one time or another, we have all wished that our animals could speak to us. But our pets do use another form of communication to tell us what they are thinking — body language. Sometimes this form of communication is easy to understand, but in some instances it can be much more complex.
Animals communicate in a variety of ways using their ears, eyes, mouth, tail, degree of muscle tension and posture. When figuring out what an animal is trying to say to us, we have to look at their overall behavior as well as what the different parts of their body are doing. We also need to consider their environment and what may be causing them to act as they are.
A wagging(摇动的) tail, for example, doesn't always mean a happy dog. If the dog's tail is wagging at the same time that their body is loose and their owner has just gotten home, it's safe to assume that this is a happy dog. If the dog's tail is between their legs and wagging while their body is bending low, ears are pulled back and they are licking their lips, this dog is more anxious and fearful. Our pets' body language doesn't just send us messages; our own body language sends them messages, too. It's important to avoid staring directly at an animal or approaching them head-on — they can interpret these actions as threatening. It's best to approach them sideways and to use your peripheral vision to look at them. Instead of leaning over an animal or reaching out toward them — which can also be seen as threatening —let them approach you when they're comfortable.
While animals can't speak to us using our language, they do communicate with us constantly through their body language —it's up to us to pay attention and listen to what they're telling us!
28. What can we know about animals' body language from the first two paragraphs
A. It is a difficult skill for animals to master.
B. People can understand it easily and clearly.
C. It occurs when animals communicate with humans.
D. People can respond to the needs of animals through it.
29. What does the underlined word "peripheral" in Paragraph 3 probably mean
A. Straight. B. Surrounding. C. Tough. D. Unique.
30. Which of the following behavior may be seen as a danger by animals
A. Walking right up to them. B. Making an indirect eye contact.
C. Reaching out to them from the side. D. Keeping a certain distance from them.
31. What can be the best title for the text
A. The Mystery Behind Animal's Behavior
B. Difference Between Various Body Language
C. Body —Messenger Between Animals and Man
D. Animal's Body Language: A Form of Communication
D

Once there was a little girl named Emily. Although her singing was very pleasant to hear, lacking courage, she never dared to sing in front of strangers.
One summer, the neighborhood where she lived would hold a singing competition. Her best friend, Lucy, came to invite her to participate in the competition, but Emily said, "I'm afraid to take part in it." Her mother said, "It's okay; just do it bravely." Emily followed her mama's advice and decided to give it a try. The day came. Emily and Lucy went to the competition site. But she was too shy to walk onto the stage. She had been waiting until others finished singing. She shakily forced herself to stand on the stage. She started to sing, but her voice was so low. What's worse, she was so nervous that she forgot the lyrics(歌词) after singing a few words. She was laughed at by others. Embarrassed and shy, she ran away from the stage.
Some naughty boys ran after her and said, "Emily, coward(胆小鬼)! Emily, coward!" Emily didn't argue with them. What she wanted was to go back home as quickly as she could. Finally, she rushed into the house, hugged her mom and cried sadly.
"Well, my poor girl. Don't cry. Tell me what happened to you," asked her mom. Emily looked up at her mother and told her what she had experienced.
Listening to her, her mom cupped her face in her hands and said, "It doesn't matter, my girl. As long as you practice singing more in front of strangers, you will become braver little by little. So, my girl, don't be beaten by a failure. You can go out to practice singing every day. No matter who is listening to you, go on singing and never stop. I believe there will be a harvest for you."
