For Western designers, China and its rich culture have long been an inspiration for Western creative.
"It's no secret that China has always been a source(来源)of inspiration for designers," says Amanda Hill, chief
creative officer at A+E Networks, a global media company and home to some of the biggest fashion(时尚)shows.
Earlier this year, the China Through A Looking Glass exhibition in New York exhibited 140 pieces of China-
inspired fashionable clothing alongside Chinese works of art, with the aim of exploring the influence of Chinese
aesthetics(美学)on Western fashion and how China has fueled the fashionable imagination for centuries. The exhibition
had record attendance, showing that there is huge interest in Chinese influences.
"China is impossible to overlook," says Hill. "Chinese models are the faces of beauty and fashion campaigns that
sell dreams to women all over the world, which means Chinese women are not just consumers of fashion — they are
central to its movement. "Of course, only are today's top Western designers being influenced by China — some of the
best designers of contemporary fashion are themselves Chinese." Vera Wang, Alexander Wang, Jason Wu are taking on
Galiano, Albaz, Marc Jacobs-and beating them hands down in design and sales," adds Hill.
For Hill, it is impossible not to talk about China as the leading player when discussing fashion. "The most famous
designers are Chinese, so are the models, and so are the consumers," she says. "China is no longer just another market; in
many senses it has become the market. If you talk about fashion today, you are talking about China —its influences, its
direction, its breathtaking clothes, and how young designers and models are finally acknowledging that in many ways."
24.What can we learn about the exhibition in New York?
A. It promoted the sales of artworks.
B. It attracted a large number of visitors.
C. It showed ancient Chinese clothes.
D. It aimed to introduce Chinese models.
25.What does Hill say about Chinese women?
A. They are setting the fashion.
B. They start many fashion campaigns.
C. They admire super models.
D. They do business all over the world.
26.What do the underlined words "taking on" in paragraph 4 mean?
A. learning from
B. looking down on
C. working with
D. competing against
27.What can be a suitable title for the text?
A. Young Models Selling Dreams to the World
B.A Chinese Art Exhibition Held in New York
C. Differences Between Eastern and Western Aesthetics
D. Chinese Culture Fueling International Fashion Trends

Before the 1830s,most newspapers were sold through annual subscriptions in America, usually $8 to $10 a year.
Today $8 or $10 seems a small amount of money, but at that time these amounts were forbidding to most citizens.
Accordingly, newspapers were read almost only by rich people in politics or the trades. In addition, most newspapers had
little in them that would appeal to a mass audience. They were dull and visually forbidding. But the revolution that was
taking place in the 1830s would change all that.
The trend, then, was toward the "penny paper"— a term referring to papers made widely available to the public. It
meant any inexpensive newspaper; perhaps more importantly it meant newspapers that could be bought in single copies
on the street.
This development did not take place overnight. It had been possible(but not easy)to buy single copies of
newspapers before 1830,but this usually meant the reader had to go down to the printer's office to purchase a copy. Street
sales were almost unknown. However, within a few years, street sales of newspapers would be commonplace in eastern
cities. At first the price of single copies was seldom a penny—usually two or three cents was charged —and some of the
older well-known papers charged five or six cents. But the phrase "penny paper " caught the public's fancy, and soon
there would be papers that did indeed sell for only a penny.
This new trend of newspapers for "the man on the street" did not begin well. Some of the early ventures(企业)were
immediate failures. Publishers already in business, people who were owners of successful papers, had little desire to
change the tradition. It took a few youthful and daring businessmen to get the ball rolling.
28.Which of the following best describes newspapers in America before the 1830s?
A. Academic.
B. Unattractive.
C. Inexpensive.
D. Confidential.
29.What did street sales mean to newspapers?
A. They would be priced higher.
B. They would disappear from cities.
C. They could have more readers.
D. They could regain public trust.
30.Who were the newspapers of the new trend targeted at?
A. Local politicians.
B. Common people.
C. Young publishers.
D. Rich businessmen.
31.What can we say about the birth of the penny paper?
A. It was a difficult process.
B. It was a temporary success.
C. It was a robbery of the poor.
D. It was a disaster for printers.
D
Monkeys seem to have a way with numbers.
A team of researchers trained three Rhesus monkeys to associate 26 clearly different symbols consisting of numbers
and selective letters with 0-25 drops of water or juice as a reward. The researchers then tested how the monkeys
combined—or added—the symbols to get the reward.
Here's how Harvard Medical School scientist Margaret Livingstone, who led the team, described the experiment: In
their cages the monkeys were provided with touch screens. On one part of the screen, a symbol would appear, and on the
other side two symbols inside a circle were shown. For example, the number 7 would flash on one side of the screen and
the other end would have 9 and 8. If the monkeys touched the left side of the screen they would be rewarded with seven
drops of water or juice; if they went for the circle, they would be rewarded with the sum of the numbers—17 in this
example.
After running hundreds of tests, the researchers noted that the monkeys would go for the higher values more than
half the time, indicating that they were performing a calculation, not just memorizing the value of each combination.
When the team examined the results of the experiment more closely, they noticed that the monkeys tended to
underestimate(低估)a sum compared with a single symbol when the two were close in value—sometimes choosing,
for example, a 13 over the sum of 8 and 6. The underestimation was systematic: When adding two numbers, the monkeys
always paid attention to the larger of the two, and then added only a fraction(小部分)of the smaller number to it.
"This indicates that there is a certain way quantity is represented in their brains, "Dr. Livingstone says. “But in
this experiment what they're doing is paying more attention to the big number than the little one.”
32. What did the researchers do to the monkeys before testing them?
A. They fed them.
B. They named them.
C. They trained them.
D. They measured them.
33. How did the monkeys get their reward in the experiment?
A. By drawing a circle.
B. By touching a screen.
C. By watching videos.
D. By mixing two drinks.
34. What did Livingstone's team find about the monkeys?
A. They could perform basic addition.
B. They could understand simple words.
C. They could memorize numbers easily.
D. They could hold their attention for long.
35. In which section of a newspaper may this text appear?
A. Entertainment.
B. Health.
C. Education.
D. Science.

In an online class, developing healthy patterns of communication with professors is very important. 36
While I have only listed two of each, these are obviously many other situations that can arise. Students should be able to
extend the logic(逻辑)of each to their particular circumstance.
Do's
• 37 Questions about subject content are generally welcomed. Before asking questions about the course
design, read the syllabus(教学大纲)and learning management system information to be sure the answer isn't hiding in
plain sight.
• Participate in discussion forums(论坛), blogs and other open-ended forums for dialogue. 38 Be sure
to stay on topic and not offer irrelevant information. Make a point, and make it safe for others to do the same.
Don'ts
• Don't share personal information or stories. Professors are not trained nurses, financial aid experts or your best
friends. If you are in need of a deadline extension, simply explain the situation to the professor.
39
• Don't openly express annoyance at a professor or class. 40 When a student attacks a professor on the
social media, the language used actually says more about the student. If there is truly a concern about a professor's
professionalism or ability, be sure to use online course evaluations to calmly offer your comments.
A. That's what they are for.
B. Turn to an online instructor for help.
C. If more information is needed, they will ask.
D. Remember that online professors get a lot of emails.
E. Below are some common do’s and don’ ts for online learners.
F. Everyone has taken a not-so-great class at one time or another.
G. Ask questions, but make sure they are good, thoughtful questions.

people. In addition ,most newspapers had little in them that would appeal to mass audience. They
were dull and visually forbidding.”可知,在19 世纪30 年代之前,只有富人才能读报纸,而且大多数报纸中

【29 题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段提到“便士报纸”针对大众,很便宜的。更重要的是,在街上可以买的到报纸。 结合
第三段中间的“streets sales of newspapers would be commonplaced in eastern cities”可知,报纸的街
头销售随处可见。由此可推断出,街头销售意味读报纸的多了。分析选项可知C 符合题,故选C。
【30 题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中的“The trend, then, was ‘penny paper’—a term referring to papers made
widely available to the public. perhaps more importantly it meant newspapers that could be bought
in single copies on the street.”可知,这种“便士报纸”针对大众的,在街上可以买的到报纸。分析选项可
知,选项B 符合题意,故选B。
【31 题详解】
推理判断题。第二段“The trend, then, was ‘penny paper’”及最后一段“The new trend of
newspapers for ‘the man on the street’ did not begin well. Some of the early ventures were
immediately failures. Publishers already in business, people who owners of successful papers, had
little desires to change the tradition. It took a few youthful and daring businessmen to get the ball
rolling.”可知,“便士报纸”新趋势一开始并不好,一些早期的尝试立即失败了。已经进入商业领域的成功的
出版商,并不想改变这一传统。后来一些年轻而大胆的商人才推动了这件事。由此可推断出“便士报纸”的诞
生是一个困难而曲折的过程。分析选项可知,A 项符合题意,故选A。
D
Monkeys seem to have a way with numbers.
A team of researchers trained three Rhesus monkeys to associate 26 clearly different symbols consisting of numbers
and selective letters with 0-25 drops of water or juice as a reward. The researchers then tested how the monkeys
combined—or added—the symbols to get the reward.
Here's how Harvard Medical School scientist Margaret Livingstone, who led the team, described the experiment: In
their cages the monkeys were provided with touch screens. On one part of the screen, a symbol would appear, and on the
other side two symbols inside a circle were shown. For example, the number 7 would flash on one side of the screen and
the other end would have 9 and 8. If the monkeys touched the left side of the screen they would be rewarded with seven
drops of water or juice; if they went for the circle, they would be rewarded with the sum of the numbers—17 in this
example.
After running hundreds of tests, the researchers noted that the monkeys would go for the higher values more than
half the time, indicating that they were performing a calculation, not just memorizing the value of each combination.
When the team examined the results of the experiment more closely, they noticed that the monkeys tended to
underestimate(低估)a sum compared with a single symbol when the two were close in value—sometimes choosing, for
example, a 13 over the sum of 8 and 6. The underestimation was systematic: When adding two numbers, the monkeys
always paid attention to the larger of the two, and then added only a fraction(小部分)of the smaller number to it.
"This indicates that there is a certain way quantity is represented in their brains, "Dr. Livingstone says. “But in this
experiment what they're doing is paying more attention to the big number than the little one.”
32. What did the researchers do to the monkeys before testing them?
A. They fed them.
B. They named them.
C. They trained them.
D. They measured them.
33. How did the monkeys get their reward in the experiment?
A. By drawing a circle.
B. By touching a screen.
C. By watching videos.
D. By mixing two drinks.
34. What did Livingstone's team find about the monkeys?
A. They could perform basic addition.
B. They could understand simple words.
C. They could memorize numbers easily.
D. They could hold their attention for long.
35. In which section of a newspaper may this text appear?
A. Entertainment.
B. Health.
C. Education.
D. Science.
【答案】32. C
33. B
34. A
35. D
【解析】
这是一篇说明文。研究发现:猴子可以进行基本的加法运算。文章对研究的经过和结论做了介绍和分析。
【32 题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中的“A team of researchers trained three Rhesus monkeys…The researches
then tested how…”可知,在对这些猴子进行测试之前,研究者们对它们进行了培训。故C 选项正确。
【33 题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段中的“In their cages the monkeys were provided with touch screen…If the
monkeys touched the left side of the screen, they would be rewarded with seven drops…; if they
went for the circle, they would be rewarded with…”可知,当猴子触摸屏幕左边时,它们会得到7 滴水或
者果汁的奖励;当它们触摸屏幕的另一端(即画着圆圈的部分)时,它们会得到17 滴水或果汁的奖励。由此可
知,猴子是通过触摸屏幕得到奖励的。B 选项正确。
【34 题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段“The monkeys would go for the higher values more than half the time,
indicating that they were performing a calculation, not just memorizing the value of each
combination”和第五段中的“When adding two numbers…”可知,猴子会在超过一半的时间内选择更高
的值,这意味着它们在进行计算,而不仅仅是记住每一个组合的值。由此可知,A 选项正确:猴子能够进行基
本的加法计算。由此亦可以排除C 选项。
【35 题详解】
推理判断题。通读整篇文章可知,该文介绍的是哈佛医学院的科学家Margaret Livingstone 领导的一个研究
团队对猴子进行实验得出的研究结果。这属于“科学研究”范畴,故该文应出现在报纸的“科学”板块。故D
选项正确。

【解析】
这是一篇记叙文。作者讲述了他们去夏威夷度假途中的经历以及到了主人家后收到的礼遇,主人热情招待他
们,还在工作之余带他们参加了很多当地的活动。
【61 题详解】
考查副词。句意:在我们去那座房子的路上,雨下得如此大以至于我们不能不想还要多久才能到达那里。
“so…that…”意为“如此…以至于…”,引导结果状语从句。故填so。
【62 题详解】
考查不定式。句中的would 提示我们作者还没有到达那座房子,wondering 后的句子不缺谓语,此处应填非谓语
动词,故填to get。
【63 题详解】
考查介词。“a pack of”意为“一群”。故填of。
【64 题详解】
考查定语从句。句意:它们被他们的主人训练地很好,它们的主人在照顾这些动物方面很有经验。先行词为
masters(主人),且从句缺主语。故关系词填who。
【65 题详解】
考查一般过去时。句意:我们的主人跟我们分享了很多他们的经历并推荐了一些很好的吃饭、购物和参观的地
方。“and”前后两个动作“shared”与“recommended”是并列关系,时态一致。故填recommeded。
【66 题详解】
考查名词。由空格前的不定冠词an 与空格后的不定式to watch 可以确定空格处应该填名词形式。故填
competition。
【67 题详解】
考查形容词。空格修饰名词stories,应用形容词形式,tradition 的形容词为traditional,故填traditional。
【68 题详解】
考查副词。空格处单词修饰形容词popular,应用副词形式,huge 的副词为hugely,故填hugely。
【69 题详解】
考查一般过去时的被动语态。由“on the last day of our week-long stay”可知,句子时态为一般过去时。
根据句意:我们被邀请去参加一场私人音乐会,所以用被动语态。主语为we,故填were invited。
【70 题详解】
考查分词。本句谓语动词为“were invited”,所以70 题空格处动词listen 应用非谓语动词形式。听音乐这个
动作是由we 发出的,所以选用现在分词形式。也可由and 前后连接两个并列的结构这一规律解题,and 后
meeting interesting locals 为分词形式,故空格处填listening。

【答案】opens→open
required→requires
ordinarily→ordinary
cafe 后面加上to
去掉like
yourselves→themselves
what→that/which
manage→managing
city→cities
an→a
【解析】
【详解】1. 本句考查不定式的用法。不定式做表语,to 后用动词原形。故把 opens 改为 open。2. 本句考查
动词的时态。短文的主体时态都是现代时。故把 required 改为 requires。3. 本句考查形容词的用法。修饰名
词cafe,应用形容词。ordinarily 是副词。故把 ordinarily 改为 ordinary。
4. 本句考查动词的固定搭配。want sb to do sth“ 想要某人做某事”。故在have 前加to。5. 本句考查介词
的用法。such as 和like 都是用来举例子,重复了。故把like 删除。6. 本句考查代词的用法。customers 是句
子的主语,故把 yourselves 改为 themselves。7. 本句考查定语从句。先行词environment 在从句中做主
语,指物,关系代词用that/which。故 把what 改为that/which。8. 本句考查动词的固定搭配。succeed in
doing something“成功的做了某事”。故把manage 改为managing。
9. 本句考查名词的用法。many different 后跟可数名词的复数形式。故把city 改为cities。
10. 本句考查冠词的用法。an 用在元音音素前,a 用在辅音因素前。unique 是以辅音音素开头的单词,前用
a。故把an 改为a。
