Among all traditional Chinese operas,types of facial makeup (脸谱) in Peking Opera have developed into the most systematic one.Different colors are used to show different characters,but at first,only three colors were used:red,white and black.
Red is generally used to show that a role is honest,frank and loyal.In fact,red is originally just to show the color of people's skin.Because many roles use red and black to show they are very brave and honest,red gradually has another meaning.A typical “red full face” is Guan Yu,known for his loyalty to his emperor,Liu Bei.
The role with the white face commonly seen on the stage is bad in human nature.Typical characters are Cao Cao,who was powerful but cruel in the time of the Three Kingdoms,and Qin Hui,who put the national hero Yue Fei to death.
The black face shows either a rude and brave character or a fair and selfless personality.Typical characters of the former are Zhang Fei with a black angry butterfly face of Romance of the Three Kingdoms and Li Kui of Water Margin,and a typical character of the latter is Bao Zheng,a fearless and fair official of the Song Dynasty.
Later,other colors are gradually added to them,such as purple,symbolizing justice;yellow used for soldiers,showing bravery;blue,showing a character has a strong personality and is calculating (精明的).
(A)51.The color of red is originally used to show ________.
A.a person's skin B.a character's bravery
C.a role's honesty,frankness and loyalty D.a role's beauty
(C)52.Why does the role of Qin Hui have a white face?
A.Because he was powerful. B.Because he was cruel.

C.Zhang Fei,Cao Cao and Bao Zheng D.Guan Yu,Cao Cao and Yue Fei

Water is important to all living things but some areas in the world are short of water a lot.So we should try to protect and save water.
A group of students from Zhejiang University have successfully developed an “air handwashing machine”. The machine uses an infrared ray induction system (红外线感应系统),which can feel the presence of our hands. If it feels there are hands,the water with the air will come from the tap. And it has been proven that it is nearly as effective as traditional handwashing. It uses only ten percent of the water that regular handwashing does. The students have even set up a company to introduce the product to the public.
Li Qizhang,a member of the team that developed the machine,told a reporter that a model of their machine had already been placed in a classroom building at the university and it worked very well.
In 2014,a student called Chen Puyang first thought of the idea while he was washing his hands. Washing one's hands uses a lot of water,Chen thought. Would it be possible to replace the water with air? Others_may_not_give_the_question_a_second_thought. However,for Chen and Li,who were studying fluid mechanics (流体力学) at the time,this was considered to be an excellent idea.
Soon,Chen,Li and several classmates started on the project. After a year of research,the team came up with a gravitydriven (重力驱动) handwashing machine successfully.
(B)56.The underlined word “presence” means “________” in Chinese in Paragraph 2.
A.形状 B.存在 C.距离 D.影响
(A)57.The underlined sentence in the 4th paragraph means ________.
A.other people may not spend a second thinking about the question again
B.other people may think it is impossible to use air instead of water
C.other people may not think or worry about the question at all
D.other people may think there is no answer to the question
(D)58.We can infer from the passage that ________.
A.the air handwashing machine will be expensive
B.you can wash your hands clean without any electricity
C.you can buy the “air handwashing machine” in the shop now
D.the students developed the machine by the knowledge of fluid mechanics
(D)59.Which of the following is TRUE about the “air handwashing machine”?
A.A company was set up to produce the machine.
B.It doesn't need any water when you wash your hands.
C.It was invented by two students from Zhejiang University.
D.The idea of the machine came to Chen's mind in a sudden.
(C)60.Compared with the air handwashing machine,how much water can be wasted by regular handwashing?
A.Only ten percent of the water. B.About twenty percent of the water.
C.About ninety percent of the water. D.A hundred percent of the water.
C

There was once a King and he wanted to find out who could paint the best picture of peace. And he would offer a prize to the artist. Many artists tried. The King looked at all the pictures but there were only two he really liked and he had to choose between them.
One picture was of a calm lake. The lake was a perfect mirror for peaceful mountains all around it. Overhead was a blue sky with white soft clouds. Everyone thought that it was a perfect picture of peace.
The other picture had mountains too. But these were rugged (崎岖的) and bare (无遮蔽的). Above was an angry sky. And it was raining and lightning. Down the side of the mountain, a waterfall fell quickly. This did not look peaceful at all.
But when the King looked carefully, he saw behind the waterfall a bush (矮树丛) growing in a crack (裂缝) in the rock. In the bush a mother bird had built her nest (巢;窝). There, she sat on her nest... in perfect peace.
Which picture do you think won the prize?
The King chose the second picture. “Because,” said the King, “peace does not mean to be in a place where there is no noise, trouble, or hard work.Peace means to be in the middle of all those things and still be calm in your heart. That is the real meaning of peace.”
