I am rather good at using maps. But I forgot the maps and here we were, late afternoon, last day of holiday, my daughter, my cousin and I, driving along a two-lane highway in Oregon. No other car in sight, and the sun had just gone down. Where was that sweet little village
It was supposed to be right along this river. We drove on, farther into the unknown river always at left as our guide. We kept passing farms and fields and now a few lights were coming out. In my head, I was doing a lot of self-criticism: Why didn’t we start earlier, bring the map and so on My cousin and I were both impatient and stressed. My daughter, at least, was happy in the back seat, texting a friend. I pulled up on the shoulder of the road to think.
Just the — Wow! Amazing! A new scene appeared. Where did it come from
Right there, out of nowhere: a magical misty landscape. Fields stretched in silent purple, with rows of tall trees, darkening in the dusk. I turned the car engine off. All was silent in the hot summer air. Beside us, a plum-covered river hardly moved between a border of trees, its dark lazy water reflecting the last light of day.
How breathtaking! Where had it been If I had seen even a bit of beauty while driving along, I could have stopped and taken a look. I had missed it all.
We miss a lot, almost everything, in fact, in our world. Our task-focused filters (过滤器)takes care of that, selecting only what we need. We need to get to work. Have some lunch. We see what we need to see, often for purposes of survival. Gregory Bateson, speaking of beauty, said the judgment is selection of a fact.

Given the crowds of visitors and many attractions at the Disney parks, it's easy to get lost. Thankfully, you will always find a worker to point you in the right direction. When you do, you just might start to notice something unique about their body language—and it's just one of the many secrets Disney employees won't tell you.
Cast members, as park employees are called, are taught in their training to always point with two fingers instead of one. The first reason for this is that pointing with just the one index finger(食指), as most Americans do, is considered impolite in some cultures and countries. The Disney parks have always attracted many international visitors, so the friendlier two-finger gesture became the norm among employees, in an effort to be sensitive and welcoming to every person. Employees have even affectionately named it "the Disney point”. Michaela Paris, a former Disney employee, said the Disney point is a sign of respect.
"Disney receives plenty of foreign travelers to their parks. The typical single finger point is a symbol of disrespect and has a negative(负面的) meaning in many cultures. Therefore, Disney created 'the Disney point' to accommodate all of their guests, " Paris said.
Other sources say this way of pointing is related to Disney himself. According to the Huffington Post, it's actually how Walt Disney himself used to point things out to visitors, because he usually had a cigarette balanced between the two fingers. You won't find cast members today smoking a cigarette—there's no smoking allowed for anyone, employees or guests, once you are inside the entrances at Disney parks—but the tradition of pointing with two fingers still stands.
Keep an eye out for the statue of Walt and Mickey doing "the Disney point" next time you're at Disney World. Meanwhile don't miss other such rules that all Disney employees must follow.
8. When will a visitor probably notice "the Disney point"
A. When asking the way. B. When entering the park.
C. When greeting foreigners. D. When smoking a cigarette.
9 What does “the Disney point” refer to
A. A gesture. B. An employee. C. A park. D. A statue.
10. What does the underlined word "accommodate" in paragraph 3 mean
A. offer space to. B. put up. C. provide food for. D. adapt to.
11. What is paragraph 4 mainly about
A. Rules to follow in the park.
B. The life story of Walt Disney.
C. Some attractions at Disney World.
D. A possible origin of “the Disney point”.
D
Now more companies are experimenting with the concept of connected clothes. Among the pioneers is London based Cute Circuit, which has been creating fashionable smart clothing since 2004. The company’s latest innovation is the “Sound Shirt”, which allows deaf people to “feel” live music by transforming the tunes into touch sensations (感受) in real time.
The fashionable jacket uses software that changes the music into data and wirelessly sends it to the 16-micro motors fitted inside the clothing’s fabric (布料). The devices shake with the intensity (强度) of the music being played, allowing the wearer to feel each instrument individually. For example, violins can be felt on the arms, while the deeper, heavier bass notes can be felt close to the stomach. The series of touch like sensations across the wearer’s body enable him or her to feel the entire music, resulting in a musical experience.
To ensure the shirt is comfortable, the designers chose to leave out wires and instead wove conductive textiles (导电纺织品) into the garment’s fabric. Francesca Rosella, chief creative officer of Cute Circuit, explains, “There’re no wires inside, so we’re only using smart fabrics — we have a combination of micro-electronics and very thin and flexible and conductive fabrics. All these little electronic motors are connected with these conductive fabrics so that the garment is soft and stretchable.”
Cute Circuit, which has been testing the Sound Shirt for three years, expects to make it available to the general public shortly. Priced at $3,673, the smart jacket won’t be cheap. However, twin sisters Herman and Heredia Breanne, who lost their hearing at a young age, believe the hi-tech garment is a worthwhile investment, especially for deaf people with a passion for dancing. “It’s almost like feeling the depth of the music,” says Herman. “It just feels as though we can move along with it.”
12. Why does the writer mention smart clothing in the first paragraph
A. To show the development of technology.
B. To introduce the topic of the passage.
C. To demonstrate the latest trend of music.
D. To summarize the main idea of the whole passage.
13. What does paragraph 2 focus on
A. The software used in the shirt.
B The musical instruments felt by the wearers.
C. The way the shirt functions.
D. The experience the wearer gains with the shirt.
14. Which of the following can be used to describe the “Sound Shirt”
A. Affordable and fashionable. B. Cheap and comfortable.
C. Interesting but useless. D. Expensive but comfortable.
15. What do the twin sisters mentioned in the text indicate
A. The shirt will be popular with deaf dancing-enthusiasts.
B. They will invest in the “Sound Shirt” industry.
C. The shirt should be marketed as soon as possible.
D. They love music very much.

47. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
It was the last day of school, and the long year spent in fourth grade had finally come to an end. It had rained heavily all day, and by the afternoon it became chilly. The sun had dipped below the horizon (地平线) as I got home soaked (湿透) and cold. I rushed into my room and slipped into some dry clothes. Once I had changed, I joined my mother in the kitchen. She had already lit the fire to prepare supper.
The wood soon caught fire, and the warmth spread around the room. I tried to get closer to the fire as my body was shivering with the intense cold. My mother gently rubbed my back and said, “I am proud of you, my little hero,” as I told her how my schoolwork had improved. I remember her bright smile and the joy in her eyes.
My mother started humming the lyrics to one of my favorite songs, “Heal the World” by Michael Jackson. I immediately began to sing with my mother. We would always sing songs like this together. My mother knew how much I loved singing. She always felt sorry that she couldn’t afford to pay for music classes for me.
Life was not easy for us during that period. I was living with my mother after she separated from my dad, which happened the year before when I was in third grade. Sometimes the nights were tedious (单调乏味的) and tiresome as we did not have a television and the batteries in our old radio would often run out. However, I enjoyed the 20 songs that my mother and I sang together. As she hummed the tune and I sang along, I dreamed of a world where performing on stage would be the pillar (支柱) of my life. The turning point of my childhood came after the end of fourth grade. Our neighbor moved away and left his old piano to us.
注意:
1. 续写词数应为150个左右;
2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
My mother was so happy that she could teach me singing at home with this piano.
_______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
The next term, I became the lead singer of the school chorus, which was one step closer to my dream of becoming a singer and inspiring people with my voice.

In my head, I was doing a lot of self-criticism: Why didn’t we start earlier, bring the map and so on My cousin and I were both impatient and stressed. My daughter, at least, was happy in the back seat, texting a friend. I pulled up on the shoulder of the road to think.
Just the — Wow! Amazing! A new scene appeared. Where did it come from
Right there, out of nowhere: a magical misty landscape. Fields stretched in silent purple, with rows of tall trees, darkening in the dusk. I turned the car engine off. All was silent in the hot summer air. Beside us, a plum-covered river hardly moved between a border of trees, its dark lazy water reflecting the last light of day.
How breathtaking! Where had it been If I had seen even a bit of beauty while driving along, I could have stopped and taken a look. I had missed it all.

Given the crowds of visitors and many attractions at the Disney parks, it's easy to get lost. Thankfully, you will always find a worker to point you in the right direction. When you do, you just might start to notice something unique about their body language—and it's just one of the many secrets Disney employees won't tell you.
Cast members, as park employees are called, are taught in their training to always point with two fingers instead of one. The first reason for this is that pointing with just the one index finger(食指), as most Americans do, is considered impolite in some cultures and countries. The Disney parks have always attracted many international visitors, so the friendlier two-finger gesture became the norm among employees, in an effort to be sensitive and welcoming to every person. Employees have even affectionately named it "the Disney point”. Michaela Paris, a former Disney employee, said the Disney point is a sign of respect.
"Disney receives plenty of foreign travelers to their parks. The typical single finger point is a symbol of disrespect and has a negative(负面的) meaning in many cultures. Therefore, Disney created 'the Disney point' to accommodate all of their guests, " Paris said.
Other sources say this way of pointing is related to Disney himself. According to the Huffington Post, it's actually how Walt Disney himself used to point things out to visitors, because he usually had a cigarette balanced between the two fingers. You won't find cast members today smoking a cigarette—there's no smoking allowed for anyone, employees or guests, once you are inside the entrances at Disney parks—but the tradition of pointing with two fingers still stands.
Keep an eye out for the statue of Walt and Mickey doing "the Disney point" next time you're at Disney World. Meanwhile don't miss other such rules that all Disney employees must follow.
8. When will a visitor probably notice "the Disney point"
A. When asking the way. B. When entering the park.
C. When greeting foreigners. D. When smoking a cigarette.
9. What does “the Disney point” refer to
A. A gesture. B. An employee. C. A park. D. A statue.
10 What does the underlined word "accommodate" in paragraph 3 mean
A. offer space to. B. put up. C. provide food for. D. adapt to.
11. What is paragraph 4 mainly about
A. Rules to follow in the park.
B. The life story of Walt Disney.
C. Some attractions at Disney World.
D. A possible origin of “the Disney point”.
【答案】8. A 9. A 10. D 11. D
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。本文介绍了迪士尼公园独特的指路手势“the Disney point”的由来。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段 “Given the crowds of visitors and many attractions at the Disney parks, it's easy to get lost. Thankfully, you will always find a worker to point you in the right direction. When you do, you just might start to notice something unique about their body language(鉴于迪士尼公园的游客和许多景点,很容易迷路。值得庆幸的是,你总会找到一位为你指明方向的员工。当你这样做的时候,你可能会开始注意到他们肢体语言的一些独特之处)”可知,当游客迷路的时候,迪士尼员工就会用他们独特的手势来指路,故选A。
【9题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段“When you do, you just might start to notice something unique about their body language—and it's just one of the many secrets Disney employees won't tell you.(当你这样做的时候,你可能会开始注意到他们身体语言的一些独特之处——这只是迪士尼员工不会告诉你的众多秘密之一。)”和第二段 “Cast members, as park employees are called, are taught in their training to always point with two fingers instead of one.( 被称为公园员工的演艺人员在培训中被教导永远用两根手指而不是一根手指指路。)”可知,"the Disney point”指的是当游客迷路的时候,迪士尼员工一种独特的用来指路的手势,故选A。
【10题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第三段 “Disney receives plenty of foreign travelers to their parks. The typical single finger point is a symbol of disrespect and has a negative(负面的) meaning in many cultures.( 迪士尼乐园接待了很多外国游客。典型的单指在许多文化中是不尊重的象征,具有负面意义。)”可知,因此,迪士尼创造了“the Disney point”来“迎合”所有的客人。选项D . adapt to(迎合)符合语境,故选D。
【11题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第四段“According to the Huffington Post, it's actually how Walt Disney himself used to point things out to visitors, because he usually had a cigarette balanced between the two fingers.(据《赫芬顿邮报》报道,这实际上是沃尔特·迪士尼自己过去向游客指路的方式,因为他总是用两根手指来让香烟在两指之间保持平衡”)和“there's no smoking allowed for anyone, employees or guests, once you are inside the entrances at Disney parks—but the tradition of pointing with two fingers still stands.(一旦进入迪士尼乐园的入口,无论员工还是游客,都不允许吸烟,但用两只手指指路的传统依然存在。)”可知,本段主要讲述了“the Disney point”这一指路手势的另一种可能的由来,故选D。

Now more companies are experimenting with the concept of connected clothes. Among the pioneers is London based Cute Circuit, which has been creating fashionable smart clothing since 2004. The company’s latest innovation is the “Sound Shirt”, which allows deaf people to “feel” live music by transforming the tunes into touch sensations (感受) in real time.
The fashionable jacket uses software that changes the music into data and wirelessly sends it to the 16-micro motors fitted inside the clothing’s fabric (布料). The devices shake with the intensity (强度) of the music being played, allowing the wearer to feel each instrument individually. For example, violins can be felt on the arms, while the deeper, heavier bass notes can be felt close to the stomach. The series of touch like sensations across the wearer’s body enable him or her to feel the entire music, resulting in a musical experience.
To ensure the shirt is comfortable, the designers chose to leave out wires and instead wove conductive textiles (导电纺织品) into the garment’s fabric. Francesca Rosella, chief creative officer of Cute Circuit, explains, “There’re no wires inside, so we’re only using smart fabrics — we have a combination of micro-electronics and very thin and flexible and conductive fabrics. All these little electronic motors are connected with these conductive fabrics so that the garment is soft and stretchable.”
Cute Circuit, which has been testing the Sound Shirt for three years, expects to make it available to the general public shortly. Priced at $3,673, the smart jacket won’t be cheap. However, twin sisters Herman and Heredia Breanne, who lost their hearing at a young age, believe the hi-tech garment is a worthwhile investment, especially for deaf people with a passion for dancing. “It’s almost like feeling the depth of the music,” says Herman. “It just feels as though we can move along with it.”
12. Why does the writer mention smart clothing in the first paragraph
A. To show the development of technology.
B. To introduce the topic of the passage.
C. To demonstrate the latest trend of music.
D. To summarize the main idea of the whole passage.
13. What does paragraph 2 focus on
A. The software used in the shirt.
B. The musical instruments felt by the wearers.
C. The way the shirt functions.
D. The experience the wearer gains with the shirt.
14. Which of the following can be used to describe the “Sound Shirt”
A. Affordable and fashionable. B. Cheap and comfortable.
C. Interesting but useless. D. Expensive but comfortable.
15. What do the twin sisters mentioned in the text indicate
A. The shirt will be popular with deaf dancing-enthusiasts.
B. They will invest in the “Sound Shirt” industry.
C. The shirt should be marketed as soon as possible.
D. They love music very much.

It was the last day of school, and the long year spent in fourth grade had finally come to an end. It had rained heavily all day, and by the afternoon it became chilly. The sun had dipped below the horizon (地平线) as I got home soaked (湿透) and cold. I rushed into my room and slipped into some dry clothes. Once I had changed, I joined my mother in the kitchen. She had already lit the fire to prepare supper.
The wood soon caught fire, and the warmth spread around the room. I tried to get closer to the fire as my body was shivering with the intense cold. My mother gently rubbed my back and said, “I am proud of you, my little hero,” as I told her how my schoolwork had improved. I remember her bright smile and the joy in her eyes.
My mother started humming the lyrics to one of my favorite songs, “Heal the World” by Michael Jackson. I immediately began to sing with my mother. We would always sing songs like this together. My mother knew how much I loved singing. She always felt sorry that she couldn’t afford to pay for music classes for me.
Life was not easy for us during that period. I was living with my mother after she separated from my dad, which happened the year before when I was in third grade. Sometimes the nights were tedious (单调乏味的) and tiresome as we did not have a television and the batteries in our old radio would often run out. However, I enjoyed the 20 songs that my mother and I sang together. As she hummed the tune and I sang along, I dreamed of a world where performing on stage would be the pillar (支柱) of my life. The turning point of my childhood came after the end of fourth grade. Our neighbor moved away and left his old piano to us.

【答案】My mother was so happy that she could teach me singing at home with this piano.

Though we did not have money for lessons, my mother said she would teach me all she could remember from her own music lessons as a girl. Every evening after supper, we would sit together at the piano as my mother showed me simple scales and melodies. I practised the songs we had always sung togeth
