German artist HA Schult is an unusual artist who uses trash (废物) to make sculptures．“We are living in the time of garbage，” says Schult．“I created a thousand sculptures of garbage．They are a mirror of ourselves．” Here，Schult was talking about his 1，000 trash sculptures in the form of humans．He first exhibited them in 1996 in the western German state of North Rhine—Westphalia．
“They are social sculptures，” he explains．“They are not only sculptures for the eyes．They are sculptures to spread the idea that we live in a time of garbage．” So far，Schult's social sculptures have been on show in Paris，in Moscow's Red Square，on the Great Wall of China，and in the desert next to the Pyramids of Giza near Cairo．
HA Schult's work is unforgettable．Although his work has had a big influence on the art world，Schult remains modest about his creations: “Artists have to learn every time．We are not important．All that counts is the time in which we are living．”
Trash art has been around for years．But it seems that only the popular artists are regarded as true artists when working with trash．Why can't common people be considered artists when they use the same things and change them into some form of personal art？Maybe it's because we all have our own preset ideas of what art is and isn't，or whom artists are or should be．
You can be an artist like Schult if you try．Look at used metal cans．What might be done with them？Imagine them in any number of new uses，or imagine them simply as an art form．What about boxes or clothing？Boxes can usually serve as new storage containers and houses for pets．And clothing？Imagine taking old clothes and turning them into hats or hanging organisers．
4．What do we know about Schult's sculptures
A．They served as garbage containers．
B．They reflected environmental issues．
C．They were first shown in Paris，France．
D．They were to raise economic awareness．
5．HA Schult's artistic works also get the message across that an artist must ________．
A．be socially responsible
B．be as modest as possible
C．make garbage recyclable
D．take diverse artistic forms
6．According to the last two paragraphs，the author probably agrees that ________．
A．it takes talent to be a trash artist
B．preset ideas are important to artists
C．trash art can't be seen as a real art form
D．average people can also make trash artists
7．Which of the following is the best title for the text
A．Could You Be a Trash Artist
B．What Are Social Sculptures
C．Do You Know About Trash Art
D．How Can We Deal with Used Cans
C
Opera is an art form that celebrates the human voice．No other art form creates excitement and moves the heart in the way that opera does，especially when performed by a great singer．Opera is an important part of the Western classical music tradition．It uses music，words，and actions to bring a dramatic story to life．Opera started in Italy at the end of the 16th century and later became popular throughout Europe．Over the years，it has responded to various musicals．In recent decades，much wider audiences have been introduced to opera through modern recording technology．Some singers have become celebrities thanks to performing on the radio，on TV，and in the cinema．
However，in recent years，opera has been facing serious challenges．One current challenge to opera is economics．The shortage of money raises the broader question of how much should be paid to support opera singers and other artists．Society seems to accept the large salaries paid to business managers and the multi million dollar contracts given to sports athletes．But what about opera singers？Somehow，people have the idea that artists can be creative only if they suffer in poverty，but this is unrealistic．If artists，including opera singers，lack the support they need，valuable talent is wasted．
Not only the shortage of money，but also the way money is managed in the opera world has led to hardships．Principal singers are generally paid performance fees once they complete a show．They typically receive nothing during the many weeks of rehearsal(排练) before a show starts．
Another problem faced by opera is how to meet the demands of audiences who are influenced by popular entertainment．Pop singers are often judged as much on the basis of how they look as how they sound．These demands may be unrealistic and possibly harmful．Opera singers simply cannot make a sound big enough to fill a large theater or concert hall without a microphone if their body weight is too low．Emphasising physical appearance over singing ability may cause audiences to miss out on the human voice at its best．
There are no easy solutions to opera's problems and there are many different opinions about the value of opera．However，every year many young people register for music courses with hopes and dreams of developing their talent in this special art form．The fact that opera has survived many obstacles and continues to attract the rising generation shows that it remains a respectable art form full of value．
8．Which of the statements is TRUE according to the passage
A．Opera singers' life stories are dramatic．
B．Opera will soon appear on TV and in films．
C．Opera fans thank celebrities for performing．
D．Opera develops by adapting to new conditions．
9．What can we know from Paragraphs 2 and 3
A．Opera singers are financially insecure．
B．Opera singers waste their valuable talent．
C．Opera singers get paid before the show．
D．Opera singers perform better if they are poor．
10．What does the author try to say in Paragraph 4
A．Popular culture has had a positive influence on opera．
B．Audiences know best how opera should be performed．
C．Microphones should be used to make opera more enjoyable．
D．Opera singers' voices should be valued more than their looks．
11．What would be the best title for this passage
A．The Economic Challenge to Opera
B．Opera Faced with the Difficulties
C．Opera as Part of Popular Culture
D．The Historical Context of Opera
D
Wondering whether it's worth going for a little jog？A new study shows that any amount of running lowers the risk of premature (过早的) death．
In an analysis (分析) of 14 previous studies—from the US，the UK，China and Denmark—the group of researchers from Australia，Thailand and Finland said that increased running participation “would probably lead to improvements in population health．”
The studies they used included 232，149 participants over time periods ranging from 5.5 to 35 years．Overall，people who ran any distance were connected with a 27% lower risk of death from all causes than those who did not，one of the studies shows．Running was also connected with a 30% and 23% lower risk of death from heart related disease and cancer，respectively (分别地)．
Lead researcher eljko Pedi ié，a professor at Victoria University in Melbourne，told CNN，“Our findings may motivate physically inactive people to take up running and those who already run to keep on doing it．” He added that doctors may be encouraged by our findings to let more people realise that running is a part of “lifestyle medicine”．
In their paper，which will be printed in the British Journal of Sports Medicine，the researchers say health professionals are sometimes looking out for the possible danger of encouraging people to run “because vigorous exertion (剧烈运动) has been connected with sudden death．”
Pedi ié and his team disagree with this by noting that “the benefit of running is more important than the risk”．However，they do say advice should be given on a case by case basis，as running might not be proper for everyone．And although running has a clear health benefit，Pedi ié points out that higher “doses(剂量)” of running may not necessarily reduce the risk of premature death further．
12．What does the research mainly focus on
A．The influence of running on health．
B．The possible risks of running．
C．The proper way to run．
D．The best time to run．
13．What does the underlined word “motivate” in Paragraph 4 probably mean
A．Teach．　　 B．Force．
C．Inspire． D．Require．
14．What might be health professionals' attitude to the research findings
A．Totally uninterested．
B．Strongly supportive．
C．A bit disappointed．
D．A little worried．
15．What is Pedi ié's advice to people choosing running as a form of exercise
A．Running regularly．
B．Taking professional advice．
C．Warming up before running．
D．Considering one's personal condition．

Why People Collect Art
Many people through history have gone to great lengths to collect art．But what motivates these collectors
One popular explanation for collecting is that they can have financial gain．Some resell works，earning enormous profit． 16 Immorally，some“collectors” buy art as a form of money laundering (洗钱)，since it is far easier to move art than cash between countries without examination．
17 For them，art is important for other reasons．The best way to understand the underlying drive of art collecting is as a means to create and strengthen social bonds，and as a way for collectors to communicate within these new networks．
Collectors are not only interested in creating social links，they are also motivated by the messages they can send once these social networks are created．We all know art is a powerful way for the artists to express thoughts and feelings． 18 Displaying art can send a message about who the collector really is—at least who she sees herself as．
　　 19 Through the collections，collectors convey messages not just about themselves，but about the world as a whole．For example，a kid with a shoebox of bird feathers might show others her collection not just to make friends，but also to convince them about the importance of protecting endangered species．
People collect art for various reasons． 20
A．Some gain art works in an illegal way．
B．But most collectors think little of profit．
C．Artworks preserve the qualities of their makers．
D．No doubt art collection is a hard addiction to overcome．
E．Some get large tax reductions for donating art to museums．
F．It also serves as an effective way to express collectors．
G．Other art collectors see their collections as having broader power．

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。
A North Carolina woman had her first birthday party at 105 years old．Although she is so old，she never realised her dream—she wanted to have a birthday party．She also wished to receive 105 birthday cards，the same number as her age．
Lorene Summey is an elderly person at Somerset Court，a nursing home in Cherryville，North Carolina．Two months ago，a worker in the nursing home asked Summey what she would like for her upcoming birthday．
“We have an old lady that has a birthday next month and she will be 105 years old! She has never had a big birthday party before，so I asked her several months ago what she would like to do for her birthday．She said she would love to have the square dance at her birthday party，” Jodie Lankford wrote in a social media post．“I think this wish is not quite too difficult to realise，and we can help her to fulfil it．”
“She explained to us her experiences in her childhood．She said her sister could always go out to enjoy herself but she had to stay home most of the time to take care of the younger ones．She felt unfairly treated by her parents at the time，” she said．“She wanted her hair and makeup done，and she wanted to wear the same dress she wore when she was young．”
“She is also concerned about another thing—she doesn't think she could have 105 birthday cards sent by mail to her for her birthday! I've told her that we will have more．I have made her believe that her wish is sure to come true，” Lankford added．
Last Friday night，her great birthday party began on the square of the nursing home．The time came for the old lady to realise her wish．

How is your school life？Have you joined any club？Looking forward to your reply．

[参考范文]
Summey looked especially beautiful that day． She wore a hat with jewellery and a dress with bright designs of flowers．She arrived at the party surrounded by a group of guests．Music started and the first programme was the square dance．They celebrated the old lady's birthday with a beautiful dance．Then，her friends and relatives gave her flowers，which kept her smiling all the time．At the end of the party，all the people present sang “Happy Birthday to You”．
Back to her room，the caregivers showed Summey the birthday cards． The old lady's concerns about the number of her birthday cards turned out to be unnecessary．Instead of 105 birthday cards，she received more than 1，200，which came from people all over the country．There's at least one card from every US state．Other cards arrived from as far as England．From the bottom of her heart，Summery thanked each of the workers who took the time to make her birthday wish come true!
