I.阅读理解
A
In 1812,the year Charles Dickens was born, there were 66 novels published in Britain. People had
been writing novels for a century—most experts date the first novel to Robinson Crusoe in 1719—but
nobody wanted to do it professionally. The steam-powered printing press was still in its early stages; the
literacy(识字) rate in England was under 50%.Many works of fiction appeared without the names of the
authors, often with something like “By a lady”.Novels, for the most part, were looked upon as silly,
immoral, or just plain bad.
In 1870, when Dickens died, the world mourned him as its first professional writer and publisher,
famous and beloved, who had led an explosion in both the publication of novels and their readership and
whose characters—from Oliver Twist to Tiny Tim—were held up as moral touch-stones. Today Dickens’
greatness is unchallenged. Removing him from the pantheon(名人堂) of English literature would make
about as much sense as the Louvre selling off the Mona Lisa.
How did Dickens get to the top? For all the feelings readers attach to stories, literature is a numbers
game, and the test of time is extremely difficult to pass. Some 60,000 novels were published during the
Victorian age, from 1837 to 1901; today a casual reader might be able to name a half-dozen of them. It’s
partly true that Dickens’ style of writing attracted audiences from all walks of life. It’s partly that his
writings rode a wave of social, political and scientific progress. But it’s also that he rewrote the culture of
literature and put himself at the centre. No one will ever know what mix of talent, ambition, energy and
luck made Dickens such a distinguished writer. But as the 209th anniversary of his birth approaches, it is
possible—and important for our own culture—to understand how he made himself a lasting one.
1. Which of the following best describes British novels in the 18th century?
A. They were difficult to understand.
B. They were popular among the rich.
C. They were seen as nearly worthless.
D. They were written mostly by women.
2. Dickens is compared with the Mona Lisa in the text to stress _______.
A. his reputation in France
B. his interest in modern art
更多资料添加微信号：hiknow_007 淘宝搜索店铺：乐知课堂C. his success in publication
D. his importance in literature
3. What is the author’s purpose in writing the text?
A. To remember a great writer.
B. To introduce an English novel.
C. To encourage studies on culture.
D. To promote values of the Victorian age.

While visiting the North Pole in winter may not be at the top of your bucket_list,_the everchanging
ICEHOTEL may change your mind. Lying 200 km north of the Arctic Circle in the Swedish village of
Jukkasjarvi, the hotel, which is carved entirely from ice, is rebuilt annually.
The 35 rooms, built to accommodate visitors on all kinds of budgets, vary from expensive suites to
basic rooms that are furnished with just an icy bed and a reindeer skin. Among the highlights this year is the
“Spruce Woods” suite. Sculpted by Christopher Pascoe and Jennie O'Keefe of Canada, it describes a
camping scene complete with a classic microbus, a forest, and even an artificial campfire.
There is also the artfullycarved “Living Ocean” suite to remind visitors of the importance of saving
our oceans. The room is full of carved sea life that includes coral and a shark “swimming” right over the ice
bed. “The suite is inspired by global warming and the overfishing that affects our oceans，” says artist
Jonathan Paul Green. “I also think the idea of using frozen water from a river in northern Sweden to create
an ocean with shells, fish, and coral is exciting.”
The nearby “Haven” suite is a “magical gate of ice” guarded by two large animals. “We are inspired
by the meeting between people and want to create an experience that stimulates curiosity and
creativity，” says artist Jonas Johansson. “It feels like a dream to get to work with ice that allows our
love for light, shine, and reflection to wander freely from thought to creation.”
Regardless of whether visitors select the carved suites or the basic ice rooms, the temperature is
always set to a bonechilling －5℃！ That is why guests are advised to snuggle (蜷伏) up inside sleeping
bags and wear gloves and winter hats all night. Not surprisingly, most end up spending just a single night at
this unique hotel before moving on to the conventional and warmer hotels nearby.
4．What does the underlined phrase “bucket list” mean in the text?
A．A shopping list of buckets.
B．A list of traveling destinations.
C．A list of expensive hotels.
D．A list of exciting ideas.

A．It is rebuilt every year.
B．Its rooms are expensive.

6．Where does the inspiration of “Living Ocean” suite come from?
A．Art and literature.

D．The meeting of people.
7．Which of the following is the best title for the text?
