Famous Dance Forms From Around The World
Singing and dancing is an essential part of many cultures around the world and has been so for centuries. Worldwide, various dance forms have evolved over the years and some have crossed their regional boundaries and gained admirers globally. Here we present some of the most famous dance styles in the world.
Ballet, Russia
No dance form can approach gracefulness as closely as the Russian ballet. It is an artistic dance form that is performed to music. The steps of Russian ballet demand high levels of precision and formality. The classical ballet dance form which originated in Renaissance Italy was introduced to Russia during the rule of Peter the Great and since then became an integral part of Russian society.
Flamenco, Spain
Flamenco is a globally famous dance form that originated in Spain. The dance is accompanied by guitar playing, singing, finger snapping, and handclapping. Flamenco is closely linked to the Romani people in Spain, and its style is distinctly Andalusian. The art form is currently taught in many countries worldwide but is most popular in the US and Japan. In the latter country, Flamenco schools outnumber those in Spain.
Tango Argentina
Tango is a partner dance that is associated with style and expressiveness. In the 1880's, the dance form originated along the River Plate which is the natural border between Uruguay and Argentina. Many different styles of tango exist today and international tango dancing competitions are held each year signifying the popularity of this dance.
Samba, Brazil
Samba is synonymous（同义的）with the famous Carnival of Brazil. It is a Brazilian dance style and music genre with roots in Africa and arrived in Latin America via the African slaves who arrived in Latin America with their European masters. Samba is associated with rhythm and brightly colored costumes and is considered as an integral part of the Brazilian culture.

When I was a boy, our extended, immigrant family would sometimes gather at my aunt’s tiny house over the summer. Relatives from all over the country would come in to visit. The adults would crowd together in the living room to talk and catch up on each other' s lives. And the kids would be sent out into the front yard to play when dinner was slowly cooked for all of us.
Those were the days before video games, smart phones, and motorized toys, so we often ended up playing an old game. I remember one of those moments especially. As I was the youngest and smallest of all the kids there, I got caught first and couldn't catch anyone else. My brothers and cousins were all too fast for me, and I grew more and more frustrated. I finally fell my face first into the dirt. I got up with tears forming in my eyes. Then I saw one of my female cousins Susan standing there. She started to run but was going much slower than before. I easily caught up and seized her. Then she turned to me, smiled, and said, I'm it! You d better run! Iran off laughing with glee while she turned and started to chase others.
Now I see how her act of kindness that day saved me from sadness and returned me to joy. It didn't matter that we hardly ever saw each other. I know we are family and she loves me.
In her wonderful book: Box of Butterflies, Roma Downey writes, "We are all one, we all belong to each other, and we are one big. beautiful family." Perhaps it is time that we all started to treat each other that way. Perhaps it is time that we shared our love, our kindness, our laughter, and our joy with everyone without fear. Perhaps it is time to finally and forever bring this world together in one big family reunion.

C
One day, gardeners might not just hear the buzz of bees among their flowers, but the whirr of robots, too. Scientists have managed to turn an unassuming drone (无人机) into a remote-controlled pollinator (授粉媒介) by attaching horsehairs coated with a special, sticky gel to its underbelly.
Animal pollinators are needed for the reproduction of 90% of flowering plants and one third of human food crops. Chief among those are bees — but many bee populations in the United States have been in steep decline in recent decades. Thus, the decline of bees isn't just worrisome because it could disrupt ecosystems, but also because it could disrupt agriculture and economy. People have been trying to come up with replacement techniques, but none of them are especially effective yet.
Scientists have thought about using drones, but they haven't figured out how to make free-flying robot insects that can rely on their own power source without being attached to a wire. “It’s very tough work,” said senior author Eijiro Miyako, a chemist at the National Institute of Advanced Industrial Science and Technology. His particular contribution to the field involves a gel, one he’d considered a mistake 10 years before and stuck in a storage cabinet. When it was rediscovered a decade later, it hadn’t dried up or degraded at all. “I was so surprised because it still had high viscosity,” Miyako said.
The chemist noticed that when dropped, the gel absorbed an impressive amount of dust from the floor. Miyako realized this material could be very useful for picking up pollen (花粉). He and his colleagues chose a drone and attached horsehairs to its smooth surface to mimic a bee’s fuzzy body. They coated those horsehairs in the gel, and then controlled the drones over lilies, where they would pick up the pollen from one flower and then deposit the pollen at another one, thus fertilizing it.
The scientists looked at the hairs under a scanning electron microscope and counted up the pollen grains attached to the surface and found that the drones whose horsehairs had been coated with the gel had about 10 times more pollen than those that had not been coated with the gel.
Miyako does not think such drones would replace bees altogether, but could simply help bees with their pollinating duties. There’s a lot of work to be done before that's a reality, however. Small drones will need to become more controllable and energy efficient, as well as smarter, with better GPS and artificial intelligence.
28. What does the underlined word “viscosity” in Para.3 probably mean?
A. Hardness. B. Stickiness.
C. Flexibility. D. Purity.
29. We can learn from the passage that ______.
A. bees disrupt both agriculture and economy
B. scientists have invented self-powered robot insects
C. bees in the United States are on the edge of extinction
D. Miyako found the special feature of the gel by chance
30. A drone works best in picking up pollen when ______.
A. its body is made like a bee’s
B. its GPS works more efficiently
C. some flowers are coated with the gel
D. horsehairs with the gel are attached to it
31. According to Eijiro Miyako, the drones ______.
A. are not yet ready for practical use
B. may eventually replace bees in the future
C. are much more efficient than bee pollinators
D. can provide a solution to economic depression
D
Every baby born a decade from now will have its genetic code (基因编码) mapped at birth, the head of the worlds’ leading genome sequencing (基因图谱) company has predicted.
A complete DNA read – out for every newborn will be technically possible and affordable in less than five years, promising a revolution in healthcare, says Jay Flatley, the chief executive of Illumina. Only social and legal problems are likely to delay the age of “genome sequences,” or genetic profiles. By 2019 it will have become routine to map infants’ genes when they are born, Dr Flatly told The Times.
This will open a new approach to medicine, by which conditions such as high blood pressure and heart disease can be predicted and prevented and drugs used more safely and effectively.
A baby’s genome can be discovered at birth by a blood test. By examining a person’s genome, it is possible to identify raised risks of developing diseases such as cancers. Those at high risk can then he screened more regularly, or given drugs or dietary advice to lower their chances of becoming ill.
Personal genomes could also he used to ensure that patients get the medicine that is most likely to work for them and least likely to have side – effects.
The development, however, will raise legal concerns about privacy and access to individuals’ genetic records.
“Bad things can be done with the genome. It could predict something about someone – and you could possibly hand the information to their employer or their insurance company.” said Dr Flatley.
“People have to recognize that this horse is out of the barn, and that your genome probably can’t be protected, because everywhere you go you leave your genome behind. Complete genetic privacy, however, is unlikely to be possible”, he added.
As the benefits become clearer, however, he believes that most people will want their genomes read and interpreted. The risk is nothing compared with the gain.
32. In the first two paragraphs, the author mainly wants to tell us about______.
A. the significant progress in medicine
B. the promise of a leading company
C. the information of babies’ genes
D. the research of medical scientists
33. Which of the following is a problem caused by this approach?
A. The delaying in discovering DNA.
B. The risk of developing diseases at birth.
C. The side – effects of medicine on patients.
D. The letting out of personal genetic information.
34. What does the underlined sentence “… this horse is out of the barn” mean?
A. Genetic mapping technique has been widely used.
B. Genetic mapping technique is too horrible to control.
C. People are eager to improve genetic mapping technique.
D. people can’t stop genetic mapping technique advancing.
35. What’s Dr Flatley’s attitude towards the technology?
A. Tolerant. B. Conservative. C. Positive. D. Doubtful.

28. What does the underlined word “viscosity” in Para.3 probably mean?
A. Hardness. B. Stickiness.
C. Flexibility. D. Purity.
29. We can learn from the passage that ______.
A. bees disrupt both agriculture and economy
B. scientists have invented self-powered robot insects

D. Miyako found the special feature of the gel by chance
30. A drone works best in picking up pollen when ______.
A. its body is made like a bee’s
B. its GPS works more efficiently
C. some flowers are coated with the gel
D. horsehairs with the gel are attached to it
31. According to Eijiro Miyako, the drones ______.
A. are not yet ready for practical use
B. may eventually replace bees in the future
C. are much more efficient than bee pollinators
D. can provide a solution to economic depression
【答案】28. B 29. D 30. D 31. A
【解析】这是一篇说明文。文章主要说明了蜜蜂数量的减少令人担忧，因为这可能破坏生态系统，也可能破坏农业和经济。人们一直在试图想出替代技术，科学家们通过在马毛的下腹部贴上一层特殊的粘性凝胶，成功地将一种不起眼的雄蜂变成了一种遥控传粉器。
28.考查词义猜测题。根据第三段中“When it was rediscovered a decade later, it hadn’t dried up or degraded at all.”可知，十年后被重新发现时，凝胶根本没有干枯或退化。因此Miyako惊讶的是它仍然具有很高的粘性。结合选项，故选B。
29.考查细节理解题。根据第三段中“ His particular contribution to the field involves a gel, one he’d considered a mistake 10 years before and stuck in a storage cabinet. When it was rediscovered a decade later, it hadn’t dried up or degraded at all.”可知，Miyako是偶然间发现凝胶这种特殊特性的。结合选项，故选D。
30.考查细节理解题。根据倒数第二段中“The scientists looked at the hairs under a scanning electron microscope and counted up the pollen grains attached to the surface and found that the drones whose horsehairs had been coated with the gel had about 10 times more pollen than those that had not been coated with the gel.”可知，科学家们在扫描电子显微镜下观察了这些毛发，并对附着在表面的花粉粒进行了计数，发现那些马毛上涂有凝胶的雄蜂的花粉量大约是没有涂有凝胶的雄蜂的10倍。结合选项，故选D。
31.考查推理判断题。根据文章最后一段中“ There’s a lot of work to be done before that's a reality, ”可知，在投入使用之前，还有很多工作需要做。故可知，这种无人机还未投入使用。结合选项，故选A。
D
Every baby born a decade from now will have its genetic code (基因编码) mapped at birth, the head of the worlds’ leading genome sequencing (基因图谱) company has predicted.
A complete DNA read – out for every newborn will be technically possible and affordable in less than five years, promising a revolution in healthcare, says Jay Flatley, the chief executive of Illumina. Only social and legal problems are likely to delay the age of “genome sequences,” or genetic profiles. By 2019 it will have become routine to map infants’ genes when they are born, Dr Flatly told The Times.
This will open a new approach to medicine, by which conditions such as high blood pressure and heart disease can be predicted and prevented and drugs used more safely and effectively.
A baby’s genome can be discovered at birth by a blood test. By examining a person’s genome, it is possible to identify raised risks of developing diseases such as cancers. Those at high risk can then he screened more regularly, or given drugs or dietary advice to lower their chances of becoming ill.
Personal genomes could also he used to ensure that patients get the medicine that is most likely to work for them and least likely to have side – effects.
The development, however, will raise legal concerns about privacy and access to individuals’ genetic records.
“Bad things can be done with the genome. It could predict something about someone – and you could possibly hand the information to their employer or their insurance company.” said Dr Flatley.
“People have to recognize that this horse is out of the barn, and that your genome probably can’t be protected, because everywhere you go you leave your genome behind. Complete genetic privacy, however, is unlikely to be possible”, he added.
As the benefits become clearer, however, he believes that most people will want their genomes read and interpreted. The risk is nothing compared with the gain.
32. In the first two paragraphs, the author mainly wants to tell us about______.
A. the significant progress in medicine
B. the promise of a leading company
C. the information of babies’ genes
D. the research of medical scientists
33. Which of the following is a problem caused by this approach?
A. The delaying in discovering DNA.
B. The risk of developing diseases at birth.
C. The side – effects of medicine on patients.
D. The letting out of personal genetic information.
34. What does the underlined sentence “… this horse is out of the barn” mean?
A. Genetic mapping technique has been widely used.
B. Genetic mapping technique is too horrible to control.
C. People are eager to improve genetic mapping technique.
D. people can’t stop genetic mapping technique advancing.
35. What’s Dr Flatley’s attitude towards the technology?
A. Tolerant. B. Conservative. C. Positive. D. Doubtful.
【答案】32. A 33. D 34. D 35. C
【解析】本文介绍了一项医学上的重大进步，即DNA技术在医疗上的应用。
32.A考查目的意图题。根据前两段告诉我们在不到五年的时间里，每一个新生儿的完整的DNA解读将在技术上是可行的和担负得起的，这预示着医疗保健领域的一场革命。可知这是在告诉我们一项医学上的重大进步。故选A.
33.D考查细节理解题：根据第六段The development, however, will raise legal concerns about privacy and access to individuals’ genetic records.可知，这种方法带来的问题就是它可能会泄露个人的基因信息。故选D.
34.B考查猜测词句题：根据倒数第二段划线句所在段and that your genome probably can’t be protected, because everywhere you go you leave your genome behind. Complete genetic privacy, however, is unlikely to be possible”, he added.所说：因为无论你走到哪里，你都会留下你的基因组。因此完全的基因隐私是不可能的，这是你自己不能控制的。可知猜测出本句的意思是：人不能阻止遗传作图技术的推进。故选B.
35.C考查推理判断题。根据最后一段所说：然而，随着利益的明朗化，他相信大多数人都希望他们的基因组能够被阅读和解释。这与收益相比风险又是什么。可以推断出作者对此技术是积极的态度。故选C.

I still remember how I learned to ride a bike. At first, I was unable to control it direction. Sometimes I fell to right or to the left. I was anxious to ask my father why I could ride straight, but he didn't answer me direct. Instead, he take me to the side of the street. “Can you find any bike track what is always straight? ” asked my father. I watched more carefully and shook my head. “Neither of the tracks is always straight. But just by correct the direction every now and then, we have already gone backward.” he said.

【答案】Dear Peter，
Glad to receive your last letter，in which you said that you were very interested in Chinese family culture and wanted to know more. Here I’d like to share something concerned with you.
As you know，family culture has been playing an important role in Chinese history，through which many great minds were developed and made great contributions to the society. Some traditional notions，such as upholding the family honor and respecting ancestors，are greatly valued and handed down generation after generation，which are an eventually essential part of Chinese culture. In new era，new ideas，such as fairness and freedom，have been put forward to guide us to strive for a new life. Additionally，a good book in this respect named Customs and Traditions of China can tell you more.
Looking forward to your reply and feedback after your reading the book.
Best wishes!
Yours，
Li Hua
