James’s New Bicycle
James shook his money box again. Nothing! He carefully 36 the coins that lay
on the bed. $24.52 was all that he had. The bicycle he wanted was at least $90! 37
on earth was he going to get the 38 of the money?
He knew that his friends all had bicycles. It was 39 to hang around with people
when you were the only one without wheels. He thought about what he could do.
There was no 40 asking his parents, for he knew they had no money to 41 .
There was only one way to get money, and that was to 42 it. He would have to
find a job. 43 who would hire him and what could he do? He decided to ask Mr.
Clay for advice, who usually had 44 on most things.
“Well, you can start right here,” said Mr. Clay. “My windows need cleaning and
my car needs washing.”
That was the 45 of James’s odd-job(零工) business. For three months he
worked every day after finishing his homework. He was amazed by the 46 of jobs
that people found for him to do. He took dogs and babies for walks, cleared out
cupboards, and mended books. He lost count of the 47 of cars he washed and
windows he cleaned, but the 48 increased and he knew that he would soon have
49 for the bicycle he longed for.
The day 50 came when James counted his money and found $94.32. He 51
no time and went down to the shop to pick up the bicycle he wanted. He rode 52
home, looking forward to showing his new bicycle to his friends. It had been hard 53
for the money, but James knew that he valued his bicycle far more 54 he had
bought it with his own money. He had 55 what he thought was impossible, and that
was worth even more than the bicycle．36. A. cleaned B. covered C. counted D. checked

How I Turned to Be Optimistic
I began to grow up that winter night when my parents and I were returning from
my aunt’s house, and my mother said that we might soon be leaving for America. We
were on the bus then. I was crying, and some people on the bus were turning around
to look at me. I remember that I could not bear the thought of never hearing again the
radio program for school children to which I listened every morning.I do not remember myself crying for this reason again. In fact, I think I cried very
little when I was saying goodbye to my friends and relatives. When we were leaving I
thought about all the places I was going to see---the strange and magical places I had
known only from books and pictures. The country I was leaving never to come back
was hardly in my head then.
The four years that followed taught me the importance of optimism, but the idea
did not come to me at once. For the first two years in New York I was really lost---
having to study in three schools as a result of family moves. I did not quite know what
I was or what I should be. Mother remarried, and things became even more complex
for me. Some time passed before my stepfather and I got used to each other. I was
often sad, and saw no end to “the hard times.”
My responsibilities in the family increased a lot since I knew English better than
everyone else at home. I wrote letters, filled out forms, translated at interviews with
immigration officers, took my grandparents to the doctor and translated there, and
even discussed telephone bills with company representatives.
From my experiences I have learned one important rule: almost all common
troubles eventually go away! Something good is certain to happen in the end when
you do not give up, and just wait a little! I believe that my life will turn out all right,
even though it will not be that easy.
56. How did the author get to know America?
A. From her relatives. B. From her mother.
C. From books and pictures. D. From radio programs.
57. Upon leaving for America the author felt .
A. confused B. excited C. worried D. amazed
58. For the first two years in New York, the author .
A. often lost her way B. did not think about her future
C. studied in three different schools D. got on well with her stepfather
59. What can we learn about the author from Paragraph 4?
A. She worked as a translator.
B. She attended a lot of job interviews.C. She paid telephone bills for her family.
D. She helped her family with her English.

Dear Friend,
The recent success of children’s books has made the general public aware that
there’s a huge market out there.
And there’s a growing need for new writers trained to create the $3 billion worth
of children’s books bought each year ... plus stories and articles needed by over 650
publishers of magazines for children and teenagers.
Who are these needed writers? They’re ordinary folks like you and me.
But am I good enough?
I was once where you might be now. My thoughts of writing had been pushed
down by self-doubt, and I didn’t know where to turn for help.
Then, I accepted a free offer from the Institute to test my writing aptitude(潜能),
and it turned out to be the inspiration I needed.
The promise that paid off
The Institute made the same promise to me that they will make to you, if you
show basic writing ability:
You will complete at least one manuscript(手稿) suitable to hand in to a
publisher by the time you finish our course.
I really didn’t expect any publication before I finished the course, but that
happened. I sold three stories. And I soon discovered that was not unusual at the
Institute.
Since graduation, I have authored 34 nationally published children’s books andover 300 stories and articles.
Free test and brochure
We offer a free aptitude test and will send you a copy of our brochure describing
our recognized home-study courses on the basis of one-on-one training.
Realize your writing dream today. There’s nothing sadder than a dream delayed
until it fades forever.
Sincerely,
Kristi Holl, Instructor
Institute of Children’s Literature

A. children’s books are usually bestsellers
B. publishers are making 3 billion each year
C. magazines for teenagers have drawn public attention
D. there is a growing need for writers of children’s books
62. When finishing the course, you are promised to .
A. be a successful publisher
B. become a confident editor
C. finish one work for publication
D. get one story or article published
63. Kristi Holl mentions her experience mainly to .
A. prove she is a good instructor

How Room Designs Affect Our Work and Feelings
Architects have long had the feeling that the places we live in can affect ourthoughts, feelings and behaviors. But now scientists are giving this feeling an
empirical（经验的，实证的）basis. They are discovering how to design spaces that
promote creativity, keep people focused and lead to relaxation.
Researches show that aspects of the physical environment can influence
creativity. In 2007, Joan Meyers-Levy at the University of Minnesota, reported that
the height of a room’s ceiling affects how people think. Her research indicates that
higher ceilings encourage people to think more freely, which may lead them to make
more abstract connections. Low ceilings, on the other hand, may inspire a more
detailed outlook.
In additions to ceiling height, the view afforded by a building may influence an
occupant’s ability to concentrate. Nancy Wells and her colleagues at Cornell
University found in their study that kids who experienced the greatest increase in
greenness as a result of a family move made the most gains on a standard test of
attention.
Using nature to improve focus of attention ought to pay off academically, and it
seems to, according to a study led by C. Kenneth Tanner, head of the School Design
& Planning Laboratory at the University of Georgia. Tanner and his team found
that students in classrooms with unblocked views of at least 50feet outside the
window had higher scores on tests of vocabulary, language arts and maths than did
students whose classrooms primarily overlooked roads and parking lots.
Recent study on room lighting design suggests than dim（暗淡的）light helps
people to loosen up. If that is true generally, keeping the light low during dinner or at
parties could increase relaxation. Researchers of Harvard Medical School also
discovered that furniture with rounded edges could help visitors relax.
So far scientists have focused mainly on public buildings. “We have a very
limited number of studies, so we ’ re almost looking at the problem through a straw
（吸管）,” architect David Allison says. “How do you take answers to very specific
questions and make broad, generalized use of them? That’s what we’re all struggling
with.”
64. What does Joan Meyers-Levy focus on in her research?A. Light. B. Ceilings. C. Windows. D. Furniture.
65. The passage tells us that .
A. the shape of furniture may affect people’s feelings
B. lower ceilings may help improve students’ creativity
C. children in a dim classroom may improve their grades
D. students in rooms with unblocked views may feel relaxed
66. The underlined sentence in the last paragraph probably means that .
A. the problem is not approached step by step
B. the researches so far have faults in themselves
C. the problem is too difficult for researchers to detect
D. research in this area is not enough to make generalized patterns
67. Which of the following shows the organization of the passage?
CP：Central Point P：Point SP：Sub-point（次要点） C：Conclusion
D
When students and parents are asked to rate subjects according to theirimportance, the arts are unavoidably at the bottom of the list. Music is nice, people
seem to say, but not important. Too often it is viewed as mere entertainment, but
certainly not an education priority（优先）. This view is shortsighted. In fact, music
education is beneficial and important for all students.
Music tells us who we are. Because music is an expression of the beings who
create it, it reflects their thinking and values, as well ad the social environment it
came influence that George Gershwin and other musicians introduced into their music
is obviously American because it came from American musical traditions. Music
expresses our character and values. It gives us identity as a society.
Music provides a kind of perception（感知）that cannot be acquired any other
way. Science can explain how the sun rises and sets. The arts explore the emotive（情
感的）meaning of the same phenomenon. We need every possible way to discover
and respond to our world for one simple but powerful reason: No one way can get it
all.
The arts are forms of thought as powerful in what they communicate as
mathematical and scientific symbols. They are ways we human beings “talk” to each
other. They are the language of civilization through which we express our fears, our
curiosities, our hungers, our discoveries, our hopes. The arts are ways we give form to
our ideas and imagination so that they can be shared with others. When we do not
give children access to an important way of expressing themselves such as music, we
take away from them the meanings that music expresses.
Science and technology do not tell us what it means to be human. The arts do.
Music is an important way we express human suffering, celebration, the meaning and
value of peace and love.
So music education is far more necessary than people seem to realize.
68. According to Paragraph 1, students .
A. regard music as a way of entertainment
B. disagree with their parents on education
C. view music as an overlooked subject
D. prefer the arts to science69. In Paragraph 2, the author uses jazz an example to .
A. compare it with rock music
B. show music identifies a society
C. introduce American musical traditions
D. prove music influences people’s lifestyles
70. According to the passage, the arts and science .
A. approach the world from different angles
B. explore different phenomena of the world
C. express people’s feelings in different ways
D. explain what it means to be human differently
71. What is the main idea of the passage?
A. Music education deserves more attention.
B. Music should be of top education priority.
C. Music is an effective communication tool.
D. Music education makes students more imaginative.

Camping wild is a wonderful way to experience the natural world and, at its best,
it makes little environmental influence. But with increasing numbers of people
wanting to escape into the wilderness, it is becoming more and more important to
camp unobtrusively (不引人注目地) and leave no mark.
Wild camping is not permitted in many places, particularly in crowded lowland
Britain. Wherever you are, find out about organizations responsible for managing wild
spaces, and contact them to find out their policy on camping and shelter building. For
example, it is fine to camp wild in remote parts of Scotland, but in England you must
ask the landowner’s permission, except in national parks.
Camping is about having relaxation, sleeping outdoors, experiencing bad weather,
and making do without modern conveniences. A busy, fully-equipped campsite (野营
地) seems to go against this, so seek out smaller, more remote places with easy access
to open spaces and perhaps beaches. Better still, find a campsite with no road access:walking in makes a real adventure.
Finding the right spot to camp is the first step to guaranteeing a good night’s
sleep. Choose a campsite with privacy and minimum influence on others and the
environment. Try to use an area where people have obviously camped before rather
than creating a new spot. When camping in woodland, avoid standing dead trees,
which may fall on a windy night. Avoid animal runs and caves, and possible homes of
biting insects. Make sure you have most protection on the windward side. If you make
a fire, do so downwind of your shelter. Always consider what influence you might
have on the natural world. Avoid damaging plants. A good campsite is found, not
made — changing it should be unnecessary.
72. You needn’t ask for permission when camping in .
A. national parks in England B. most parts of Scotland
C. crowded lowland Britain D. most parts of England
73. The author thinks that a good campsite is one .
A. with easy access B. used previously
C. with modern conveniences D. far away from beaches
74. The last paragraph mainly deals with .
A. protecting animals B. building a campfire
C. camping in woodland D. finding a campsite with privacy
75. The passage is mainly about .
A. the protection of campsites B. the importance of wild camping
C. the human influence on campsites D. the dos and don’ts of wild camping

Green Action in Our Class
April 12 is memorable because our class had a meaningful experience on that
day. In the morning, we bicycled to the suburbs to plant trees, talking and laughing all
the way. Upon arrival, we began to work immediately. Some were digging holes.
Some were carrying and planting young trees. Others were watering them. After
getting the work done, we put up a board reminding people to protect the trees. Before
leaving we took some photos to record our green action. Seeing the lines of trees, we
all had a sense of achievement. We feel it’s our duty to protect and beautify our
environment.

One possible version:
What an interesting picture! A Western young man, sitting at a table, is ready to
eat a bowl of noodles. He is holding two forks the same way as we Chinese hold
chopsticks. He is trying so hard to pick up the noodles that he is sweating a lot. At
first glance, I think it’s a bit funny, for we Chinese take for granted that chopsticks are
the tools for eating noodles. The man in the picture is trying to copy us. Obviously he
is doing it the hard way. Maybe using one fork will do a better job. In my opinion, we
don’t need to copy others’ ways of thinking. Sometimes a simpler way of doing things
may be a better way.

W: Hello, and welcome to our program of successful business women. Today, we are
looking at the story of Maria Silvers, the founder of a chain of coffee bars. She comes
from Singapore, but later moved to London with her family. Her father, who was a
factory manager, filled her with a belief in hard work. Maria studied political science
at university. After leaving university, she became a teacher. When her father died, she
went to New York for a break. Every morning, she’d go to a coffee bar. When she got
back to London, she realized that there was nothing like those coffee bars. So she
decided to give up her job and do something about it. She opened the first coffee bar
in 1995, and her success was quick. She opened ten more the following year. Now she
is proud of her success and plans to open eighty more besides the eighty-five she
already has. And Maria is only 33 years old.

过去的过去，因题中无过去时间作参照，故排除．故答案用一般过去时came．
【点评】本题考查时态．做时态题时，首先要看句子的时间状语，如果没有时
间状语，就从句子暗含的意思来确定句子的时态．24. For breakfast he only drinks juice from fresh fruit on his own farm.

菁优网版权所有
【分析】作为早餐，他只喝由他自己农场种植的新鲜水果制作的果汁．
【解答】答案是A．本题考查非谓语动词；题干中缺少的是fresh fruit的定语，
grow（种植）和fruit之间是被动关系，并且"grow"的动作已经完成，故用过去
分词表示"被动和完成"，答案选A；B项现在分词的被动语态表示"被动和进行"，
C项动词不定式的被动语态表示"被动和将来"；故B和C错误；D项没有被动
的含义，排除．

菁优网版权所有
【分析】﹣﹣你认为教学怎么样，Bob？
﹣﹣我觉得教学有趣又有挑战性．这是一份让你能做严肃但有趣事情的工作．
【解答】答案是A．本题考查定语从句；本题定语从句的先行词是 a job，把先
行词a job带入到定语从句，完整的定语从句是"you are doing something serious
but interesting in the job"；可见in the job在从句中充当地点状语，故使用关系副
词where，故选A．在定语从句中当先行词是 job，point，stage，case等抽象名
词并且在从句中做状语时，定语从句中使用关系副词where．

待"，并且动作已经发生，所以用一般过去时的被动形式．

看句子的时间状语，如果没有时间状语，就从句子暗含的意思来确定句子的时
态．

effective way.

the power of the workstation"的"目的"是"present information in a more effective
way"，所以需要的是表示目的动词不定式，所以答案选择D．

时，by the time引导时间状语从句，此类从句如表示过去动作，从句中用一般
过去时，主句用过去完成时．故答案选C．
【点评】本题考查时态．做时态题时，首先要看句子的时间状语，如果没有时
间状语，就从句子暗含的意思来确定句子的时态．31. At first he hated the new job but decided to give himself a few months to see

清从句的性质，掌握各连接词的用法，在此基础上判断．此外，关注名词性从
句用陈述语序．

知，此处的"take"应是发生在过去John被给予那个手提箱之前的动作，故用过
去完成时；故选B．
【点评】本题考查了过去完成时（had+done）的用法；首先应根据句中已知的
时态以及句意，判断出此处动作发生的时间；其次应了解过去完成时表示的是
发生在过去之前的动作；最后应熟练掌握各时态的意义及用法区别．

一些特殊用法选择适当答案．

菁优网版权所有
【分析】被咬过两次，这名邮递员拒绝帮我们递送信件，除非我们把狗换掉．
【解答】答案是B．本题考查非谓语动词；句中逗号前面需要的是非谓语动词
做状语，与句子主语the postman之间是被动关系，故排除C；A项是现在分词
表示"在进行"；D项是动词不定式表示"将来"，A和D均不符合语境，因为"被
咬"的动作已经发生，故用过去分词表示"完成"，答案选B．
【点评】首先判断选项中的动词在句中是以谓语还是非谓语形式出现，然后根
据选项在句中的功能结合非谓语的基本用法做出合理的判断．要关注常见非谓

【考点】55：指示代词．
菁优网版权所有
【分析】作为一名父母不总是很容易，而作为一个由特殊需求的孩子的父母常
常随之带来额外的压力．
【解答】答案是A．本题考查代词，题干中extra stress为carries的宾语，被放到句末，其常见语序为"carry extra stress with_____"，可见句中需要的是with的
宾语，根据语境，是伴随着"作为有特殊需求的孩子的父母"这件事带来额外的
压力，故用it代替上文提到的一件事，答案是A．
【点评】代词的考查要根据语境分析需要的代词代替上文中的哪一部分，然后
根据被指代的这一部分的特征判断答案．

How I Turned to Be Optimistic
I began to grow up that winter night when my parents and I were returning from
my aunt’s house, and my mother said that we might soon be leaving for America. We
were on the bus then. I was crying, and some people on the bus were turning around
to look at me. I remember that I could not bear the thought of never hearing again the
radio program for school children to which I listened every morning.I do not remember myself crying for this reason again. In fact, I think I cried very
little when I was saying goodbye to my friends and relatives. When we were leaving I
thought about all the places I was going to see---the strange and magical places I had
known only from books and pictures. The country I was leaving never to come back
was hardly in my head then.
The four years that followed taught me the importance of optimism, but the idea
did not come to me at once. For the first two years in New York I was really lost---
having to study in three schools as a result of family moves. I did not quite know what
I was or what I should be. Mother remarried, and things became even more complex
for me. Some time passed before my stepfather and I got used to each other. I was
often sad, and saw no end to “the hard times.”
My responsibilities in the family increased a lot since I knew English better than
everyone else at home. I wrote letters, filled out forms, translated at interviews with
immigration officers, took my grandparents to the doctor and translated there, and
even discussed telephone bills with company representatives.
From my experiences I have learned one important rule: almost all common
troubles eventually go away! Something good is certain to happen in the end when
you do not give up, and just wait a little! I believe that my life will turn out all right,
even though it will not be that easy.

【分析】本文主要讲述了作者通过去到美国时的不幸到最后的境况的改观告诉
人们：不幸的事最终都会过去，只要多坚持一会，多等待一会，幸福终会来临．
【解答】CBCDD
56：C细节题．由第二段第三句中"When we were leaving I thought about all the
places I was going to see---the strange and magical places I had known only from
books and pictures."可知，作者对他即将要前往的美国的了解都是来自书和图片，
因此正确答案为C．
57：B 推断题．第二段描写 In fact, I think I cried very little when I was saying
goodbye to my friends and relatives．作者将要去美国时，满脑子想的都是他将要
看到的陌生而神秘的地方，而没有因为与亲友告别而哭泣，由此可推断出作者
还是很向往去美国的，所以作者对于去美国应该是感到激动，故正确答案为
B．
58：C 细节题．由第三段第二句"For the first two years in New York I was really
lost---having to study in three schools as a result of family moves."可知在去美国的
前3年里，他很迷茫，因为搬家的原因在 3所不同的学校上学，故正确答案为
C．
59：D 根据第四段写 My responsibilities in the family increased a lot since I knew
English better than everyone else at home,"我"在家承担的责任就开始增加﹣﹣写
信，填表，与移民局官员面谈时担任翻译，带奶奶去医院等等，即"我"用自己
的英语能力帮助家庭．故正确答案为D．
60：D主旨题．由最后一段可知作者认为不幸的事最终都会过去，只要多坚持一会，多等待一会，幸福终会来临，故正确答案为D．
【点评】本文是科教类阅读理解．做这类题材阅读理解时要求考生对文章通读

Dear Friend,
The recent success of children’s books has made the general public aware that
there’s a huge market out there.
And there’s a growing need for new writers trained to create the $3 billion worth
of children’s books bought each year ... plus stories and articles needed by over 650
publishers of magazines for children and teenagers.
Who are these needed writers? They’re ordinary folks like you and me.
But am I good enough?
I was once where you might be now. My thoughts of writing had been pushed
down by self-doubt, and I didn’t know where to turn for help.
Then, I accepted a free offer from the Institute to test my writing aptitude(潜能),
and it turned out to be the inspiration I needed.
The promise that paid off
The Institute made the same promise to me that they will make to you, if you
show basic writing ability:
You will complete at least one manuscript(手稿) suitable to hand in to a
publisher by the time you finish our course.
I really didn’t expect any publication before I finished the course, but that
happened. I sold three stories. And I soon discovered that was not unusual at the
Institute.
Since graduation, I have authored 34 nationally published children’s books and
over 300 stories and articles.
Free test and brochureWe offer a free aptitude test and will send you a copy of our brochure describing
our recognized home-study courses on the basis of one-on-one training.
Realize your writing dream today. There’s nothing sadder than a dream delayed
until it fades forever.
Sincerely,
Kristi Holl, Instructor
Institute of Children’s Literature

the general public aware that there’s a huge market out there．和第二段 And there’s
a growing need for new writers trained to create the $3 billion worth of children’s

How Room Designs Affect Our Work and Feelings
Architects have long had the feeling that the places we live in can affect our
thoughts, feelings and behaviors. But now scientists are giving this feeling an
empirical（经验的，实证的）basis. They are discovering how to design spaces that
promote creativity, keep people focused and lead to relaxation.
Researches show that aspects of the physical environment can influence
creativity. In 2007, Joan Meyers-Levy at the University of Minnesota, reported that
the height of a room’s ceiling affects how people think. Her research indicates that
higher ceilings encourage people to think more freely, which may lead them to make
more abstract connections. Low ceilings, on the other hand, may inspire a more
detailed outlook.In additions to ceiling height, the view afforded by a building may influence an
occupant’s ability to concentrate. Nancy Wells and her colleagues at Cornell
University found in their study that kids who experienced the greatest increase in
greenness as a result of a family move made the most gains on a standard test of
attention.
Using nature to improve focus of attention ought to pay off academically, and it
seems to, according to a study led by C. Kenneth Tanner, head of the School Design
& Planning Laboratory at the University of Georgia. Tanner and his team found
that students in classrooms with unblocked views of at least 50feet outside the
window had higher scores on tests of vocabulary, language arts and maths than did
students whose classrooms primarily overlooked roads and parking lots.
Recent study on room lighting design suggests than dim（暗淡的）light helps
people to loosen up. If that is true generally, keeping the light low during dinner or at
parties could increase relaxation. Researchers of Harvard Medical School also
discovered that furniture with rounded edges could help visitors relax.
So far scientists have focused mainly on public buildings. “We have a very
limited number of studies, so we ’ re almost looking at the problem through a straw
（吸管）,” architect David Allison says. “How do you take answers to very specific
questions and make broad, generalized use of them? That’s what we’re all struggling
with.”
64. What does Joan Meyers-Levy focus on in her research?
A. Light. B. Ceilings. C. Windows. D. Furniture.
65. The passage tells us that .
A. the shape of furniture may affect people’s feelings
B. lower ceilings may help improve students’ creativity
C. children in a dim classroom may improve their grades
D. students in rooms with unblocked views may feel relaxed
66. The underlined sentence in the last paragraph probably means that .
A. the problem is not approached step by step
B. the researches so far have faults in themselvesC. the problem is too difficult for researchers to detect
D. research in this area is not enough to make generalized patterns
67. Which of the following shows the organization of the passage?
CP：Central Point P：Point SP：Sub-point（次要点） C：Conclusion

When students and parents are asked to rate subjects according to their
importance, the arts are unavoidably at the bottom of the list. Music is nice, people
seem to say, but not important. Too often it is viewed as mere entertainment, but
certainly not an education priority（优先）. This view is shortsighted. In fact, music
education is beneficial and important for all students.
Music tells us who we are. Because music is an expression of the beings who
create it, it reflects their thinking and values, as well ad the social environment it
came influence that George Gershwin and other musicians introduced into their music
is obviously American because it came from American musical traditions. Music
expresses our character and values. It gives us identity as a society.
Music provides a kind of perception（感知）that cannot be acquired any other
way. Science can explain how the sun rises and sets. The arts explore the emotive（情
感的）meaning of the same phenomenon. We need every possible way to discover
and respond to our world for one simple but powerful reason: No one way can get it
all.
The arts are forms of thought as powerful in what they communicate asmathematical and scientific symbols. They are ways we human beings “talk” to each
other. They are the language of civilization through which we express our fears, our
curiosities, our hungers, our discoveries, our hopes. The arts are ways we give form to
our ideas and imagination so that they can be shared with others. When we do not
give children access to an important way of expressing themselves such as music, we
take away from them the meanings that music expresses.
Science and technology do not tell us what it means to be human. The arts do.
Music is an important way we express human suffering, celebration, the meaning and
value of peace and love.
So music education is far more necessary than people seem to realize.
68. According to Paragraph 1, students .
A. regard music as a way of entertainment
B. disagree with their parents on education
C. view music as an overlooked subject
D. prefer the arts to science
69. In Paragraph 2, the author uses jazz an example to .
A. compare it with rock music
B. show music identifies a society
C. introduce American musical traditions
D. prove music influences people’s lifestyles
70. According to the passage, the arts and science .
A. approach the world from different angles
B. explore different phenomena of the world
C. express people’s feelings in different ways
D. explain what it means to be human differently
71. What is the main idea of the passage?
A. Music education deserves more attention.
B. Music should be of top education priority.
C. Music is an effective communication tool.
D. Music education makes students more imaginative.【考点】OD：文学艺术类阅读．

Camping wild is a wonderful way to experience the natural world and, at its best,
it makes little environmental influence. But with increasing numbers of people
wanting to escape into the wilderness, it is becoming more and more important to
camp unobtrusively (不引人注目地) and leave no mark.
Wild camping is not permitted in many places, particularly in crowded lowland
Britain. Wherever you are, find out about organizations responsible for managing wild
spaces, and contact them to find out their policy on camping and shelter building. For
example, it is fine to camp wild in remote parts of Scotland, but in England you mustask the landowner’s permission, except in national parks.
Camping is about having relaxation, sleeping outdoors, experiencing bad weather,
and making do without modern conveniences. A busy, fully-equipped campsite (野营
地) seems to go against this, so seek out smaller, more remote places with easy access
to open spaces and perhaps beaches. Better still, find a campsite with no road access:
walking in makes a real adventure.
Finding the right spot to camp is the first step to guaranteeing a good night’s
sleep. Choose a campsite with privacy and minimum influence on others and the
environment. Try to use an area where people have obviously camped before rather
than creating a new spot. When camping in woodland, avoid standing dead trees,
which may fall on a windy night. Avoid animal runs and caves, and possible homes of
biting insects. Make sure you have most protection on the windward side. If you make
a fire, do so downwind of your shelter. Always consider what influence you might
have on the natural world. Avoid damaging plants. A good campsite is found, not
made — changing it should be unnecessary.
72. You needn’t ask for permission when camping in .
A. national parks in England B. most parts of Scotland
C. crowded lowland Britain D. most parts of England
73. The author thinks that a good campsite is one .
A. with easy access B. used previously
C. with modern conveniences D. far away from beaches
74. The last paragraph mainly deals with .
A. protecting animals B. building a campfire
C. camping in woodland D. finding a campsite with privacy
75. The passage is mainly about .
A. the protection of campsites B. the importance of wild camping
C. the human influence on campsites D. the dos and don’ts of wild camping
