It had been my dream to attend the famous carnival for many years, so I was excited. However, the moment I arrived, I was a little bit nervous because there were so many people on the streets. They say that five or six million people come to Rio during carnival time and about two million of them are on the streets on any given day. Luckily, I had a local guide, my sisterˈs friend Ronnie. He said he would take care of me and show me all the highlights. He did not let me down. The carnival is most definitely all about the samba. Itˈs a style of music and dance which has its roots in Africa. Lots of Africans were used as slave labor by the Portuguese when Brazil was being colonized (殖民), so this mixed culture of African, Latin and European styles is really strong here. Samba music is usually fast and exciting with a lot of drums and harmonic vocals (和声). Itˈs the kind of music that you canˈt help dancing to, and I was learning that as I followed Ronnie through the crowd, my hips and shoulders were swinging (摇摆) almost involuntarily. Ronnie had got us tickets for the samba parade, the symbol of Brazilian culture, inside the Sambadrome where the top samba schools compete for the championship title, but we still had a long way to go through the street parties. He said most people enjoy the carnival by making their own parties in the street. About the samba parade, twelve main teams compete for the championship, and if they win, their performance will be talked about for years to come. So, you must be wondering how it was. Well, Iˈm afraid I canˈt tell you. Ronnie and I never made into the Sambadrome. We spent the day moving from one street party to another. There were more snacks, more drinks and lots of dancing. Do I regret missing the main parade? Not at all. I experienced the carnival like the locals, and it was truly amazing. 4. What made the author nervous in the beginning? A. Busy schedule. B. The big crowd. C. No local guide. D. Culture shock. 5. What can we learn about samba from this passage? A. It has its origin in America. B. It is not the taste of the author. C. It has a long and mixed culture. D. Its music is usually slow and soft. 6. The author didnˈt regret missing the parade because ________. A. she met some amazing local people B. she didnˈt have the tickets for the parade C. she celebrated the festival in a local way D. she enjoyed herself by making her own parties 7. What is the purpose of the passage? A. To recommend a helpful guide. B. To tell a painful history of Rio de Janeiro. C. To encourage people to learn samba. D To share an unforgettable experience. 【答案】4. B 5. C 6. C 7. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述作者在里约热内卢参加的一次狂欢节活动的经历。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段的“However, the moment I arrived, I was a little bit nervous because there were so many people on the streets.

Lots of Africans were used as slave labor by the Portuguese when Brazil was being colonized (殖民), so this mixed culture of African, Latin and European styles is really strong here.(这是一种起源于非洲的音乐和舞蹈风格。当巴西被殖民时，许多非洲人被葡萄牙人用作奴隶劳工，所以这种非洲、拉丁和欧洲风格的混合文化在这里非常强大)”可知，桑巴舞有悠久的历史并且是多种文化的混合。故选C。 【6题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段“Do I regret missing the main parade?

Remind them that if they feel uneasy with anything that occurs online, they need to alert an adult immediately. How you handle your kids’ internet usage will depend in large part on their age. There are sites and browsing tools meant for younger kids, such as YouTube Kids,which aims to provide a safe online experience for children.Older kids may be allowed more freedom since they want to network and need to use the internet for information-gathering. But you can set boundaries that feel right for you. Just limit access appropriately. Allowing your children to make good decisions online teaches them responsibility, shows that you trust them, and reminds them that rules may be tightened if they disobey them. Stay tuned. 12.

But soon Ali noticed Mano deep in thought so he asked what the matter was. “Ali, I was thinking that our parents do everything for us and in return they want nothing. Isn’t it bad that we never think about them and are always concerned about our needs?” Mano replied. “Sometimes we are so busy with our lives that we don’t pay proper attention to our parents. We should listen to whatever they say properly and answer them. We must also study hard to get good grades.” Ali nodded.

French toast and chicken porridge, both of which were father’s favorite dishes, were ready. Eventually, everything was settled. Ali and Mano stood beside the door, waiting for their father eagerly. Then Dad came in. Ali and Mano cried out together, “Happy Father’s Day!” Hearing the words, so glad was Dad that his face lit up. “We have a surprise for you!” added Ali, pointing at the decorations. When he saw the dinner, his eyes widened and twinkled with excitement. He couldn’t help tasting a bit of chick soup, explaining that it was the best dish he had ever had.

It had been my dream to attend the famous carnival for many years, so I was excited. However, the moment I arrived, I was a little bit nervous because there were so many people on the streets. They say that five or six million people come to Rio during carnival time and about two million of them are on the streets on any given day. Luckily, I had a local guide, my sisterˈs friend Ronnie. He said he would take care of me and show me all the highlights. He did not let me down. The carnival is most definitely all about the samba. Itˈs a style of music and dance which has its roots in Africa. Lots of Africans were used as slave labor by the Portuguese when Brazil was being colonized (殖民), so this mixed culture of African, Latin and European styles is really strong here. Samba music is usually fast and exciting with a lot of drums and harmonic vocals (和声). Itˈs the kind of music that you canˈt help dancing to, and I was learning that as I followed Ronnie through the crowd, my hips and shoulders were swinging (摇摆) almost involuntarily. Ronnie had got us tickets for the samba parade, the symbol of Brazilian culture, inside the Sambadrome where the top samba schools compete for the championship title, but we still had a long way to go through the street parties. He said most people enjoy the carnival by making their own parties in the street. About the samba parade, twelve main teams compete for the championship, and if they win, their performance will be talked about for years to come. So, you must be wondering how it was. Well, Iˈm afraid I canˈt tell you. Ronnie and I never made into the Sambadrome. We spent the day moving from one street party to another. There were more snacks, more drinks and lots of dancing. Do I regret missing the main parade? Not at all. I experienced the carnival like the locals, and it was truly amazing. 4. What made the author nervous in the beginning? A. Busy schedule. B. The big crowd. C. No local guide. D. Culture shock. 5. What can we learn about samba from this passage? A. It has its origin in America. B. It is not the taste of the author. C. It has a long and mixed culture. D. Its music is usually slow and soft. 6. The author didnˈt regret missing the parade because ________. A. she met some amazing local people B. she didnˈt have the tickets for the parade C. she celebrated the festival in a local way D. she enjoyed herself by making her own parties 7. What is the purpose of the passage? A. To recommend a helpful guide. B. To tell a painful history of Rio de Janeiro. C. To encourage people to learn samba. D. To share an unforgettable experience. C In September when UNESCO Director-General Audrey Azoulay visited Zhoukoudian in suburban Beijing, which is famous for the discovery of Peking Man living between 700,000 to 200,000 years ago, she was full of praise for the structure that successfully protected Yuanrendong Cave from an unusual rainstorm in July. The cave in the central area of the site has so far revealed the remains of 40 individuals. The structure protects the site from the weather, including heavy wind, snow and hail, and its design fits in with the surrounding environment, Qin Changwei, secretary-general of the Chinese National Commission for UNESCO, said at the 2nd World Cultural and Natural Heritage Forum in Beijing on Nov. 17 and 18. “It provides a reference for the protection of precious cultural relics, and suggests measures for helping heritage sites respond to the influence of climate change.” Organized by the World Heritage Institute of Training and Research for the Asia and the Pacific Region under the Auspices of UNESCO(Beijing), and the China Foundation for Cultural Heritage Conservation among others, the forum brought together some 50 professionals to discuss the protection and sustainable (可持续发展的) development of heritage sites. Scholars stressed the influence of climate change on heritage sites, and offered suggestions for how to solve the problem. “Entering the 21st century, climate change has been the subject of in-depth discussion by the UNESCO World Heritage Committee. Questions like how to balance between humans and nature, how to respond to natural disasters caused by climate change, and what new challenges this brings to World Heritage Sites, are worth consideration,” says Qin. “Solving the problem requires us to unify, making full use of advanced technology, such as space and digital technologies, and jointly developing risk prevention and response plans,” he adds. 8. Why was China praised for the structure in Zhoukoudian? A. It attracts an increasing number of visitors. B It matches the surrounding buildings in design. C. It is well preserved from destructive human activities. D. It sets a good example to cultural heritage protection. 9. What topic is covered in the Beijing forum? A. The effects of climate change on heritage sites. B. The preservation of the original structure. C. The unsuitable response to disasters. D. The unacceptable human behaviours. 10. According to Qin, what can be done to deal with the problem? A. Strengthening international cooperation. B. Hosting more in-depth discussion forums. C. Making plans for risk prevention individually. D. Turning attention to developing space technology. 11. What is the main concern of the author? A. The loss of balance between humans and nature. B. The lack of measures taken to preserve heritage. C. The growing weather threat that Heritage sites face. D. The worsening relation between climate change and humans. D Well, to pick up where we left off last time. I’m certain that you know all too well the dangers hiding on the World Wide Web. And whether it’s for schoolwork, entertainment, or just socializing with friends, the Internet will surely be a major part of your child’s life. So, it’s important to secure their online stays. It’s not the easiest thing, but keeping open lines of communication is primary. Let them know they can share their online activities with you. Talk to them about their online presence as early as possible, ideally before they begin to use email, social media, or a smartphone. Discuss what they find interesting online and learning from them about popular websites and apps; this will create understanding and allow you to identify potential risks. Next, monitor without spying. Most kids learn to understand boundaries, like respecting others’ personal space, or not opening the cookie jar without asking. Internet use is no different. It’s helpful for kids to have ground rules as to which websites they can visit,which apps they can use, and what they can share online. Remind them that if they feel uneasy with anything that occurs online, they need to alert an adult immediately. How you handle your kids’ internet usage will depend in large part on their age.
