Adam's

Adam,

and

of
art.
She

Now,

“I
do

portraits
and
also
often
sew
and
paint,
but
what

“Before
the
competition,
my

was
mostly
random,
and
I
was
just

But

A
Becca
was
6
when
she
was
told
she
had
cancer
on
Sept.8,
2014.She
clearly
remembers
the
bad
days
of
her
26
months
of
non-stop
treatment.Luckily,
Becca
celebrated
her
final
treatment
on
Nov.13,
2016,
and
she
has
been
cancer-free
ever
since.But
she
was
thinking
about
what
her
life
was
like
while
experiencing
the
treatment.
I
was
never
able
to
do
much,
and
that's
what
the
kids
lying
in
their
hospital
beds
right
now
experience,
asking
their
mom
and
dad,
“When
are
we
leaving?
When
can
I
play
with
my
friends?”
So
I
decided
I
have
to
help
them.
In
February,
2017,
Becca
came
up
with
the
idea
for
Knots
and
Arrows,
a
company
that
makes
bracelets
(手镯)
out
of
swimsuit
materials
(泳衣布料).Part
of
the
money
made
from
each
bracelet
goes
to
the
organizations
that
help
people
with
cancer.
Becca
created
the
company
with
her
father,
Gerhard
Salmins.Gerhard
Salmins
once
had
cancer
and
already
recovered
from
it.“I
would
be
in
the
hospital
sitting
there
crying
and
then
my
dad
would
come
in
and
he
would
play
games
with
me,”
she
said.“It
made
me
forget
about
what
I
was
going
through.”
Becca
said
the
name
of
the
organization
shows
the
motto
(座右铭)
she
stuck
to
through
her
personal
cancer
journey.
Her
organization
has
already
given
thousands
of
dollars
to
research
organizations
and
families
in
need.Becca
said
she
hoped
her
bracelets
would
make
people
remember
that
great
things
can
result
from
small
changes.“No
matter
what
age
you
are,
what
you
look
like,
and
how
you
act,
you
can
make
a
difference!”
she
said.

Magic
(魔术)
is
believed
to
have
begun
with
the
Egyptians,
in
1700
BC.A
magician
named
Dedi
of
Dedsnefu
was
reported
to
have
performed
for
the
pharaoh
(法老),
or
the
king.
He
was
also
known
to
have
entertained
(使娱乐)
the
slaves
who
built
the
pyramids.
The
“Cups
and
Balls”
trick
that
he
was
particularly
good
at
is
still
performed
by
magicians
all
over
the
world
today.
The
ancient
Greeks
and
Romans
were
also
fascinated
by
the
idea
of
magic.
Actually,
one
of
their
main
interests
was
the
art
of
deception
(欺骗).
This
explains
why
at
that
time
the
priests
even
built
magic
devices
into
their
temples.
These
devices
made
it
possible
for
doors
to
open
by
themselves
and
wine
to
flow
magically
out
of
statues’
mouths.
This
was
done
mainly
to
make
people
believe
that
the
priests
had
unusual
power.
Magic
however,
was
not
well
accepted
before
the
1800s.
Magicians
were
thought
to
be
freaks(怪物)
and,
were
only
allowed
to
perform
in
a
circus.
It
was
in
the
19th
century
that
the
magician
Robert
Houdin
came
along
and
changed
people’s
views
and
attitudes
about
magic.
It
was
because
of
Robert
Houdin
that
many
magicians
were
able
to
add
Dr.
or
MD
to
their
names.
Today
magicians
try
hard
to
find
new
ways
to
show
their
practiced
skills.
Magic
is
now
entertainment
for
families
all
over
the
world.
20.What
is
the
best
title
for
the
passage?
A.Magical
Tricks
B.A
Great
Magician
C.Magic
as
Entertainment
D.The
History
of
Magic
21.The
underlined
word
“fascinated”
in
Paragraph
2
means
_______.
A.amused
B.encouraged
C.attracted
D.moved
22.In
ancient
Greece,
what
did
the
priests
do
to
show
people
they
had
unusual
power?
A.They
performed
magical
tricks
to
entertain
people.
B.They
made
the
statues
in
the
temples
drink
wine
as
they
wished.
C.They
treated
the
people
with
wine
flowing
down
from
statues’
mouths.
D.They
built
magic
devices
in
the
temples
to
make
doors
open
by
themselves.
23.What
did
people
think
of
magic
before
the
1800s?
A.Magic
should
be
used
only
in
temples.
B.Magic
could
only
be
performed
in
a
circus.
C.Magic
was
performed
by
freaks
and
doctors.
D.Magic
was
the
major
daily
activity
for
the
pharaohs.
24.Which
of
the
following
statements
is
TRUE?
A.Magic
began
about
3,700
years
ago.
B.Dedi
of
Dedsnefu
performed
magic
for
kings
only.
C.Robert
Houdin
was
the
first
magician
to
perform
magic.
D.The

for

1,700

本篇是说明文。文章主要介绍了魔术的历史。
20.
主旨大意题。文章第一段“Magic
(魔术)
is
believed
to
have
begun
with
the
Egyptians,
in
1700
BC.”说明了魔术起源于埃及,第二段“The
ancient
Greeks
and
Romans
were
also
fascinated
by
the
idea
of
magic.”说明古希腊和罗马人也对魔术感兴趣,第四段“Magic
however,
was
not
well
accepted
before
the
1800s.”说明魔术在19世纪不被人接受,紧接着“Magic
is
now
entertainment
for
families
all
over
the
world”说明魔术现在是人们娱乐的方式。所以整篇文章按照时间顺序讲解了魔术的历史,故选D项。
21.
词义猜测题。根据第二段“Actually,
one
of
their
main
interests
was
the
art
of
deception”事实上,他们的主要兴趣之一是欺骗的艺术,从划线部分后一句可以看出,古希腊和古罗马的人也对魔术感兴趣,所以这里是被吸引,故选C项。
22.
推理判断题。根据第二段“This
explains
why
at
that
time
the
priests
even
built
magic
devices
into
their
temples.
These
devices
made
it
possible
for
doors
to
open
by
themselves
and
wine
to
flow
magically
out
of
statues’
mouths.”
这就解释了为什么那个时候的祭司们甚至在他们的庙宇里建造了魔术装置。这些装置使得门可以自己打开,酒也可以神奇地从雕像嘴里流出来。所以祭司是通过建造魔术装置来让人们觉得他们与众不同的,故选D项。
23.
细节理解题。根据第三段“Magic
however,
was
not
well
accepted
before
the
1800s.
Magicians
were
thought
to
be
freaks(怪物)
and,
were
only
allowed
to
perform
in
a
circus.”
然而,在19世纪之前,魔术并没有被广泛接受。魔术师被认为是怪胎,只允许在一个马戏团表演。所以19世纪以前,魔术师只能在马戏团表演,故选B项。
24.
细节理解题。根据第一段“Magic
(魔术)
is
believed
to
have
begun
with
the
Egyptians,
in
1700
BC.”
魔术被认为在公元前1700年从埃及人开始。公元前1700年距今大约3700年,故选A项。

A
Becca
was
6
when
she
was
told
she
had
cancer
on
Sept.8,
2014.She
clearly
remembers
the
bad
days
of
her
26
months
of
non-stop
treatment.Luckily,
Becca
celebrated
her
final
treatment
on
Nov.13,
2016,
and
she
has
been
cancer-free
ever
since.But
she
was
thinking
about
what
her
life
was
like
while
experiencing
the
treatment.
I
was
never
able
to
do
much,
and
that's
what
the
kids
lying
in
their
hospital
beds
right
now
experience,
asking
their
mom
and
dad,
“When
are
we
leaving?
When
can
I
play
with
my
friends?”
So
I
decided
I
have
to
help
them.
In
February,
2017,
Becca
came
up
with
the
idea
for
Knots
and
Arrows,
a

out

swimsuit
materials
(泳衣布料).Part
of
the
money

Becca
created
the
company
with
her
father,
Gerhard
Salmins.Gerhard
Salmins
once
had
cancer
and
already
recovered
from

would
be
in
the
hospital
sitting
there
crying
and
then
my
dad
would
come
in
and
he
would
play
games
with
me,”
she
said.“It
made
me
forget
about
what
I
was
going
through.”
Becca
said
the
name
of
the
organization
shows
the
motto
(座右铭)
she
stuck
to
through
her
personal
cancer
journey.
Her
organization
has
already
given
thousands
of
dollars
to
research
organizations
and
families
in
need.Becca
said
she
hoped
her
bracelets
would
make
people
remember
that
great
things
can
result
from
small
changes.“No
matter
what
age
you
are,
what
you
look
like,
and
how
you
act,
you
can
make
a
difference!”

B
Magic
(魔术)
is
believed
to
have
begun
with
the
Egyptians,
in
1700
BC.A
magician
named
Dedi
of
Dedsnefu
was
reported
to
have
performed
for
the
pharaoh
(法老),
or
the
king.
He
was
also
known
to
have
entertained
(使娱乐)
the
slaves
who
built
the
pyramids.
The
“Cups
and
Balls”
trick
that
he
was
particularly
good
at
is
still
performed
by
magicians
all
over
the
world
today.
The
ancient
Greeks
and
Romans
were
also
fascinated
by
the
idea
of
magic.
Actually,
one
of
their
main
interests
was
the
art
of
deception
(欺骗).
This
explains
why
at
that
time
the
priests
even
built
magic
devices
into
their
temples.
These
devices
made
it
possible
for
doors
to
open
by
themselves
and
wine
to
flow
magically
out
of
statues’
mouths.
This
was
done
mainly
to
make
people
believe
that
the
priests
had
unusual
power.
Magic
however,
was
not
well
accepted
before
the
1800s.
Magicians
were
thought
to
be
freaks(怪物)
and,
were
only
allowed
to
perform
in
a
circus.
It
was
in
the
19th
century
that
the
magician
Robert
Houdin
came
along
and
changed
people’s
views
and
attitudes
about
magic.
It
was
because
of
Robert
Houdin
that
many
magicians
were
able
to
add
Dr.
or
MD
to
their
names.
Today
magicians
try
hard
to
find
new
ways
to
show
their
practiced
skills.
Magic
is
now
entertainment
for
families
all
over
the
world.

is
the

22.In
ancient
Greece,
what
did
the
priests
do
to
show
people
they
had
unusual
power?
A.They
performed
magical
tricks
to
entertain
people.
B.They
made
the
statues
in
the

drink
wine
as
they
wished.

treated

open
by

The
distance
between
people
who

thousands
of
miles
apart
is
being
overcome
by

China,
the

also
provides

one
