三、阅读理解
You must have read or heard of the sad love story between Jia Baoyu and Lin Daiyu. But can you imagine the two singing opera in English instead of speaking poetic Chinese
Jia and Lin are two characters from the classic Chinese novel A Dream of Red Mansions(《红楼梦》), written by Cao Xueqin(1715—1763). Now the book has been made into an English-language opera. After being performed in San Francisco, the US, the performance came to Beijing, Changsha and Wuhan in 2017.
Many of the opera’s creators have backgrounds in both Chinese and American cultures, including the director and playwrights(剧作家). Their understanding of both cultures helped them change a Chinese classic into a foreign-language opera.
The book, which covers the rise and fall of the Jia family, has 120 chapters and hundreds of characters. But opera writer David Henry Hwang cut down the number of characters to just seven. Hwang, a Chinese-American, focused on the love story between Jia and Lin and tried to write a tragedy(悲剧)that everyone would understand.
The art director Timmy Yip, from Hong Kong, tried to help foreign people understand the characters using costumes and stage decorations. He compared Lin to water and gave her a light green costume. When Lin showed up on stage, there was usually water around her on the stage.
The creators considered the work of introducing a Chinese classic to Western audience was worth doing. Hwang told China Daily he was happy to “have made a contribution(贡献)to the land where my parents were born”.
26.Where was the opera first performed
A.In Beijing. B.In Changsha. C.In San Francisco. D.In Wuhan.
27.What do we know about A Dream of Red Mansions from Paragraph 4
A.It is mainly about the rise and greatness of the Qing Dynasty. B.It tells the happy-ending love story between Jia and Lin.
C.The book is long and rich in characters. D.The book has seven characters in total.
28.The art director compared Lin to water probably because of her ________.
A.dressing style B.character C.appearance D.life habits
29.What can we infer from the passage
A.A Dream of Red Mansions has been translated into English. B.Hwang’s parents were born in America.
C.The English-language opera was on tour in the US. D.Timmy Yip knows a lot about Chinese culture as well as American culture.
30.What do creators of the opera think of their job
A.Difficult and unbelievable. B.Stressful and tough. C.Satisfying and meaningful. D.Painful and challenging.
Recently, a study that was published (刊登) in BMC Medicine found that sitting in front of the TV for a long time was a risk for people’s health.
After scientists used data (数据) on 370,000 people, covering 12 years, they found that about 9,000 developed heart disease. They found people with genes (基因) of heat problems were more likely to develop heart disease. However, they found that people without such genes watching TV for more than four hours every day were at the greatest risk of heart disease. People spending 2 to 3 hours a day watching TV had a 6% lower risk. And those who watched less than an hour had a 16% lower risk. The scientists of the research team finally found cutting the time of watching TV to less than an hour a day could prevent 10% of heart disease.
In life, people who want “one more episode(剧集)” might be the group at a higher risk, for they are easy to spend more time watching TV. If they have more snacks while watching TV, it might add the risk of putting their hearts in danger. So, if people want to watch TV longer, standing up and moving the body, or hanging out will work. But reducing their time on TV could be a more useful way to help them avoid possible heart problems in the future.
31.According to the data from the study, how many people had heart disease
A.370,000. B.12. C.9,000.
32.________ have the lowest risk of heart disease.
A.People with genes of heart problems
B.People who watch TV less than an hour a day
C.People spending 2 to 3 hours every day on TV
33.The underlined word “reducing” probably means ________.
A.花费 B.记录 C.减少
34.The passage is probably taken from _______.
A.a textbook B.a newspaper C.a story book
35.What can we infer from the passage
A.We shouldn’t have snacks while watching TV.
B.We’d better not watch TV too much to be healthy.
C.Hanging out after dinner will develop heart disease.
One of the most well-known directors of our time is Stephen Spielberg. He was born in Cincinnati on 18 December 1946. His father was an electric engineer and his mother was a performing pianist. His sister, Anne Spielberg, became a screenwriter who wrote the stories for many famous films.

A few days ago, I received a letter from my Aunt Loraine.
It was a handwritten letter thanking me for some Shanghai cookies I had sent her. Aunt Lorraine is ninety-one years old and she has wonderful manners. That is why she sent me the “thank you” letter. She also has wonderful handwriting. Her penmanship (书法) is smooth. It is a pleasure to read.
Aunt Lorraine was educated half a century ago. At that time, penmanship was considered an important skill. Now, it is the age of e-mail and social media. Few people have the time or hope to practice their penmanship or write letters by hand.
This is not good. in my view, good penmanship still counts. This is especially true in school. If you want to get good grades, keeping your writing clean and beautiful will be important. Your writing might be full of good ideas. However, terrible handwriting can turn an A into a B.Awful handwriting can get you a D!
Good penmanship has other advantages, too. Since it's a skill, it trains your brain and develops your learning abilities. It also helps you organize your thoughts. And, believe it or not, that slow process of pushing a pen along paper improves your reading, spelling and even your pronunciation of English.
Apart from all these educational advantages, good penmanship also has personal advantages. A beautifully written letter to a friend is something he or she will treasure forever. A letter that looks as if a chicken bad danced across the paper will be quickly thrown away. I have kept the letter from my Aunt Lorraine. It's a great treasure!
41.Why did Aunt Lorraine write a letter to the author
A.To express her thanks. B.To show her wonderful manners.
C.To make herself pleased. D.To set a good example to the author.
42.According to the author,which of the following is NOT the advantage of good handwriting
A.Getting good grades on your writing. B.Organizing your thoughts.
C.Making your writing full of good ideas. D.Improving your English pronunciation.
43.The underlined part in the last paragraph is used to describe ________.
A.a boring letter B.a great treasure C.bad handwriting D.good penmanship
44.What does the author want to do by writing this article
A.To express the importance of clean and beautiful handwriting.
B.To share her pleasure of hearing from her aunt.
C.TO talk about her experiences of practicing penmanship.
D.To encourage people to write litters by hand instead of e-mailing.
