Rembrandt van Rijn, Dutch Baroque painter and printmaker, one of the greatest storytellers in the history of art, has an unusual ability to express people in their various moods. Rembrandt is also known as a painter of light and shade and as an artist who favored an uncompromising (不妥协的) realism.
Early in his career and for some time, Rembrandt painted mainly portraits (肖像). Although he continued to paint portraits throughout his career, he did so less frequently over time. Nearly one-tenth of his paintings consist of studies of his own face as well as more formal self-portraits.
Seen over his whole career, the changes in Rembrandt's style are worthy of attention. His approach to composition and his expression of space and light tend to make a gradual change, even within a single work. The painting known as Night Watch (1642) was clearly a turning point in his stylistic development. These changes are not the result of an involuntary evolution (无意识的演进); rather they should be seen as a clear-minded search in pictural and narrative sides, sometimes as if he were in discussion with his great previous generations.
Rembrandt quickly achieved fame among Dutch art lovers and an art-buying public for his history paintings as well as his portraits and self-portraits. His unusual drawings, which in fact were done as practice exercises or as studies for other works, were also collected by current art lovers. Certain artists in 18th-century Germany and Venice even adopted his style. He was respected during the Romantic era and was considered a forerunner (先驱) of the Romantic movement; from that point he was regarded as one of the greatest figures in art history. In the Netherlands itself, his fortunes have once again risen, and he has become a symbol of both greatness and Dutchness.
24. Why is Rembrandt called“one of the greatest storytellers in the history of art”in Paragraph 1
A. He was good at telling good stories.
B. His own life story is well worth telling.
C. He could use light and shade skillfully.
D. He could show people’s moods vividly.
25. What features Rembrandt’s early career
A. His preference for portraits.
B. His vivid description of beauty.
C. His unintended search of changes.
D. His high fame among art lovers.
26. What can we expect from Night Watch
A. A painting style without any change.
B. Different expression of space and light.
C. An involuntary evolution in narrative respects.
D. Similar content to that of those painted before.
27. What do the underlined words“that point”in the last paragraph refer to
A. Rembrandt’s contributions to the Romantic movement.
B. Rembrandt’s influence on contemporary art lovers.
C. Rembrandt’s unusual portraits and self-portraits.
D. Rembrandt’s influence on artists in 18th-century Europe.
C
One side effect of globalization and the related phenomenon of greatly increased mobility (流动性) is that the traditional definition of “foreigner” has passed its “best before date”.
Is a European who has lived in China longer than in his home country, becoming fluent in the language and knowing the culture well in the process, still a foreigner in China, or has he become more of a foreigner in his own hometown What about a Beijinger who had her schooling in Canada and then lived and worked there for another 20 years while raising a family who has no intention of returning to China Does she think and act like a foreigner What do we mean by this label (标签)
When I grew up in the suburbs of Chicago, the faces I would see during a walk through a local shopping mall back in the 1960s and 1970s included almost none of Asian descent (血统). Today the local malls are full of Asian faces, and a glance at the ranks of top scoring students in local schools reveals lots of Asian surnames.
To some extent, this is no great surprise in the American context, because America is a land of immigrants, and a cultural melting pot. Apart from the native American Indians, Americans are (or were), in some way, all foreigners anyway. Absorbing a large number of immigrants is an established pattern in American history.
In most places, the traditional foreigners were people who didn't speak or read the local languages well and were unfamiliar with local customs and lifestyles. But, nowadays, a foreigner walking down the street may have better SAT scores than you, or a higher degree from a better university.
The traditional role models are getting mixed up, and it looks like this is just the beginning of a new chapter. Today, the whole thing has totally changed. It's not about where people are from or what color their skins are. It's about who they are, what values and skills they bring, and how they think.
28. What can we learn from the first paragraph
A. The term “foreigner” should be redefined.
B. The term “foreigner” should no longer be used.
C. There are no more foreigners in the world today.
D. The term “foreigner” is not proper to define people.
29. What does the author tend to tell us by mentioning a European and a Beijinger
A. It’s no longer proper to define foreigners according to their birthplaces.
B. The label of foreigners can never be removed.
C. Most foreigners can do well in learning languages.
D. It’s impossible for a foreigner to get recognition abroad.
30. What can be inferred from the third paragraph
A. In 1960s and 1970s, Asians didn’t shop in Chicago.
B. Today, more and more Asian travellers like to shop in Chicago.
C. There are more Asian people today than in the 1960s and 1970s in Chicago.
D. Most Asian students do well academically in the schools in Chicago.
31. What is the author’s attitude to the changing definition of “foreigner”
A. Confused B. Disappointed C. Unconcerned D. Positive
D
No civilization is complete without legends about outer space. Our need to challenge the limits of what we know has made humans try to discover new worlds. However, outer space exploration can’t be carried out without heavy investments (投资), which can sometimes become a burden for any country or institution. But this changed forever.
Blue Origin, the space exploration company founded by American Jeff Bezos, amazon.com’s CEO, made history on Nov 23, 2015. It successfully launched a rocket to the edge of space and brought it back to Earth for a safe landing. The rocket, named New Shepard, was the first successful reusable rocket in space flight history. The next step is to prove it can fly again, making sure it is indeed reusable.
“We’re getting closer to a new era of space tourism,” commented Discover magazine. Reusable rockets will help companies such as Blue Origin to achieve “a cost-saving means” of transporting humans into space and back, said the magazine.
Previously, whenever a rocket had been sent into orbit, it had always been destroyed or lost in the process. Even the space shuttle, which returned to the ground undamaged and on its own power, was only partly reusable. This problem has made a single launch mission extremely expensive. A completely reusable system makes space travel more affordable and sustainable (可持续的).
Elon Musk, founder of SpaceX and another big player in private space exploration, called the idea of a reusable system “the breakthrough needed to completely change access to space”.
According to an article in The Atlantic magazine, New Shepard’s success has ended “a private space race” between Bezos and Musk. However, according to Emily Calandrelli, host and producer of Xploration Outer Space on Fox, it is not completely fair “to compare the two companies’ achievements to date” because “their successes could be considered separate unique milestones on two different paths”. Blue Origin is aiming to sell directly to buyers (wealthy space tourists) while SpaceX is aiming to sell to large companies and the government (NASA, the Air Force). These two ideas require very different rockets.
32. Why is outer space exploration difficult to achieve
A. Because there are no legends about it.
B. Because it needs a lot of money.
C. Because there are no good rockets.
D. Because humans don’t have the technology.
pared with the past, what do reusable rockets enable companies like Blue Origin to achieve
A. A newer means of space tourism.
B. A safer landing back to Earth.
C. A smaller investment to make profits.
D. A less competition with other companies.
34. What did Emily Calandrelli mean in the last paragraph
A. The two companies are similiar in technologies.
B. The two companies haven’t ended their space race.
C. The two companies have different target customers.
D. The two companies have the same goals.
35. What can be the best title of the passage
A. The Rise of Private Space Exploration Companies
B. The New Form of Space Travel
C. Comparing Achievements in Private Space Exploration
D. The First Successful Reusable Rocket in Space Flight History

根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
Teamwork is a group of people working together efficiently towards a common goal. Being a master of one or a jack-of-all-trades in today’s world does not bring about success if you are unable to work as part of a team. 36 So teamwork is important.
Teamwork benefits from different opinions. A team environment allows people to bring their diverse opinions on problem solving, which in turn increases their success in arriving at solutions. If you feel a sense of safe connection with your teammates, you will be more likely to confidently share your opinions without fear of judgment. 37
Teamwork can improve efficiency. One person working on a project is always going to take longer to complete it. Efficiency rules when work is appropriately (适度地) divided within a team, responsibilities are shared. 38 Good teamwork also increases group results.
39 People have their own skills and strengths. When the whole team works as a unit, everyone has a chance to gain new knowledge and skills from each other. This process leads to resource building and lets the team become better equipped to deal with new challenges.
Teamwork brings a bigger sense of achievement. When a team works on a project as one unit, the sense of achievement the members experience goes beyond personal achievements. 40 This is another reason why developing teamwork is worth everyone’s effort.
Teamwork leads to learning.
Now, most of our work includes communicating with others.
Teamwork can be effective in building great work relationships.
And tasks are more likely to be finished within a set time period.
The psychological(心理的) safety in teams results in more creativity.
Team members encourage and support each other to improve work quality.
It satisfies the human desires for belonging and contributing to something greater.

参考范文
Good morning, everyone!
Undoubtedly, the study of “The Million Pound Bank Note” has sparked a
profound interest in English drama among us, the freshman students. As for me, I
warmly support the establishment of an English drama club in our school. My
reasons are as follows.
Firstly, drama allows us to learn the language in a more natural and realistic
setting, which will help us improve our speaking and listening skills. Secondly,
drama promotes creativity and imagination. As we bring characters and stories to
life, we are encouraged to think creatively and critically. Lastly, drama is team
effort. Through cooperation, we learn to work together and build trust.
Therefore, I strongly hope that our school can establish an English drama
club , providing us with a unique opportunity to take our English learning to a
higher level.

it looks like this is just the beginning of a new chapter. Today, the whole thing has
totally changed. It's not about where people are from or what color their skins are.
It's about who they are, what values and skills they bring, and how they think.可知,
传统的“外国人”正在被重新定义。人们来自哪儿,肤色什么样都不重要。真正
重要的是他们是谁,拥有的价值观和技能,以及他们的思考方式。因此,作者

32.细节理解题。根据第一段第三句 However, outer space exploration can’t be
carried out without heavy investments (投资 ), which can sometimes become a
burden for any country or institution.可知,没有大量投资就无法进行外层空间探
索,这有时会成为任何国家或机构的负担。因此,选择 B。
33.推理判断题。根据第四段 Previously, whenever a rocket had been sent into orbit,
it had always been destroyed or lost in the process. Even the space shuttle, which
returned to the ground undamaged and on its own power, was only partly reusable.
This problem has made a single launch mission extremely expensive. A completely
reusable system makes space travel more affordable and sustainable (可持续的).可
知,以前,每当火箭被送入轨道时,它总是在这个过程中被摧毁或丢失。即使
是完好无损地返回地面并依靠自身动力的航天飞机,也只能部分重复使用。这
个问题使得一次发射任务变得极其昂贵。一个可重复使用的系统使太空旅行更
加经济实惠并可持续。因此,选择 C。
34.推理判断题。根据第六段第三句 Blue Origin is aiming to sell directly to buyers
(wealthy space tourists) while SpaceX is aiming to sell to large companies and the
government (NASA, the Air Force).可知,Blue Origin 的目标客户是是富有的太
空游客,而 SpaceX的目标客户是向大公司和政府。因此,选择 C。
35.主旨大意题。根据全文,结合第一段最后一句 But this changed forever.第二
段第三句 The rocket, named New Shepard, was perhaps the first successful
reusable rocket in space flight history.及尾段...New Shepard’s success has ended...
可知,文章介绍了回收火箭让人类太空探索更进一步,是太空探索的重大突破。
因此,选择 D。

话题:中国东北的历史与传统
参考译文:
中国东北地区,历史悠久,传统丰富,拥有独特的文化认同。仅举几例,
独特的满族建筑、生动的民间舞蹈和热闹的冬季庆典都为该地区丰富的文化增
色不少。
除此之外,该地区的大多数古村落都静静地见证着过去的岁月。在考古学
和科学研究的基础上,我们可以了解祖先们的生活方式和文明。
当然,这些传统不仅仅属于现在,它们深深地扎根于过去。然而,如果我们
不去欣赏和发扬这些传统,就会失去它们的精髓。我们必须意识到将这些传统
传承给后代的重要性。
5
该地区的历史塑造了其独特的身份。正是古今文化的融合,才使东北成为今
天的东北。只有了解和珍惜其历史和传统,我们才能真正欣赏到这个非凡地区
的美丽。

A company needs to test an interviewee in the most appropriate way to discover how suitable
he or she may be. ○18 A good interview process should include strict screening of
interviewees and effective questions that every interviewee gets asked. But that's not
always the case.
1○9Alison Green is an author of the workplace advice column“Ask a Manager”.○20She
told the BBC that some companies give their interviewers little or no training and
often leave them alone completely when it comes to figuring out what to ask
interviewees.She mentions that some interviewers are too casual and some focus on
building a good relationship and end up having the interviewees they are happy with,
regardless of their skills and abilities.
