Gentle View Paintings and sculptures from across the country are on display at the ongoing exhibition, Colors, at the Shandong Art Museum in Jinan, Shandong province. The event is held in celebration of International Women’s Day, which falls on Friday. The Shandong Artists Association launched the annual exhibition in 2017 to encourage women artists and to offer them a platform for their talents and their unique ways of viewing the world. Cultural Peak Ink artist Huang Binhong (1865 — 1955), considered one of the major figures of modern Chinese art, spent a lifetime carrying on his country’s cultural heritage while also maintaining a modern spirit and a universal outlook. Immortal Legacy is an ongoing exhibition at the Art Museum of Beijing Fine Art Academy that sheds light on Huang’s belief in cultural tradition. His landscape paintings indicate his appetite for the scenery of southern China, where he grew up and spent most of his life. Timeless Beauty In celebration of Chinese New Year, Immortal Brushwork of Danqing, the Tianjin Museum staged a long-term exhibition starting in early February, bringing together dozens of paintings ranging from the Song (960 — 1279) to Qing (1644 — 1911) dynasties.

Diana’s oldest son, Prince William, was on hand at London’s Science Museum on Thursday to give a speech and present this year’s Legacy Awards. “I know that she would have been honored to see a charity in her name doing such inspirational work to uplift young people from all corners of the globe,” he said, regarding his late mother, who died in 1997. “She taught me that everyone has the potential to give something back, that everyone in need deserves a supporting hand in life.” 4.

Language is part of our daily lives, no matter where we live in the world. ___36___ Both language and music play a huge role in our culture and here are some of their similarities.

Musicians read notes and create meaning in the form of music. ___37___ By writing pieces of text or music, we are able to share experiences through time. We can read the ideas or hear the composition (作品) of someone who lived hundreds of years ago. ___38___ You can make a good guess at where someone is from by listening to the language he uses. In the same way, we know that styles of music are different around the world, giving us the opportunity to explore many different cultures through their music and providing us with music for every situation. Both share emotion. ___39___ Of course you may be able to see it in my face, but you will know for sure through my words. Similarly, music can sound angry, sad or happy. Music can show you exactly how the composer was or is feeling, and allows us to share that emotion. When you feel happy, you might want to sing and dance to a happy song to celebrate your happiness.___40___ I think we have all used music to express or process our emotions, often combining it with language in the form of song lyrics (歌词). A. Both are expressive. B. Similarly, music is part of many people's lives. C. So just as you read English, you can read music. D. We use language to express our thoughts. E. In contrast, you probably also listen to sad music when you are feeling down. F. How do you know that I am angry? G. Both vary with culture. 三、完形填空 Online deception is now so commonplace that criminal gangs are using it as part of a wider range of activities to make money out of the public. “There’s been a rapid normalisation of online as people see how ___21___ it can be.

This was made ___22___ in May this year when there was an unparalleled attack on thousands of computer systems around the world, after a worm, named WannaCry, attacked computers in more than 150 countries, with payments of $300-$600 to restore access. There were an estimated 45,000 attacks across the UK, Russia, Ukraine, India, China, Italy, Egypt and beyond, with major companies ___23___. One of the reasons these attacks spread so ___24___ is that businesses and consumers don’t update their software on a regular basis. Downey ___25___ it to a situation in which a car is left in a garage and a thief tries all of the doors to see if one has been left unlocked: “People don’t realize they are leaving that proverbial car unlocked because they don’t understand the nature of these ___26___attacks.” At the heart of the problem is the ___27___of organized crime. “Criminals can also be an expert at business. They don’t want just one trick to bring in all of their income; it may be ___28___, they may have a slow month and then they’ll have a cashflow problem,” says Downey. Hacks and the threat of information theft have led to a(n)___29___ of e-commerce among some of the population, says Downey. To fight that unease, simple measures need to be adopted by retailers(零售商) in order to maintain the public’s trust.___30___, this can be achieved by ensuring they create a trustworthy environment for consumers, such as by serving websites through SSL, which establishes a secure and connection between the ___31___ and business. But for both businesses and consumers, one simple thing remains ___32___: those who can keep both their security up to date and their passwords secure will be ahead of the crowd, says Downey. “You will then be far ahead of the curve of the average business or consumer.” So don’t use variations of one password on lots of ___33___.

I mapped my life out: I’d study neuroscience at a top university and proceed to do a master’s, a Ph. D., and a postdoc, all of which would somehow lead to a prosperous career. But it didn’t go quite as planned. During the research part of my master’s degree, I found myself putting in 8 hours of work per day with little enthusiasm. I wasn’t ready to let go of my dream, however. I decided to apply to Ph. D. programs. After numerous rejections, I got accepted into a program in Zurich. I was relieved, but I also doubted whether I was the right person for the job. Within 2 years, it became clear that I was failing to master the skills I needed, and I found the work no more satisfying than during my master’s. My mental health worsened. I would lie in bed wide awake for hours. I struggled with whether to quit: If I gave up, all the years I had devoted to academia would turn out a waste of time. Then a friend noticed my mental and physical exhaustion. “Is this you. George? ” he asked one day. After hearing those words, all of my hesitation about quitting disappeared. I resigned the next day. It felt liberating to be honest with myself about a path that wasn't meant for me. Still, I needed to decide what to do next. I thought about a lecture I had recently attended. “If only we could get the general public to feel the awe (敬畏) that I’m feeling!” I remember thinking at the time. That got me wondering whether writing and communicating about science might be a good profession. I looked around and came across exceptional news features in science magazines, written by individuals without a Ph. D. I began to think I could have a career writing about general science and the work of scientists and researchers. 注意： 1. 续写词数应为150个左右； 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 I signed up for a feature writing course. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ I feel as though I’m on the right path now, writing about public health. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 1 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ Unit 3 Food and Culture 单元提升训练 培优层级1——基础多维巩固 维度1　单词拼写 1.______ vi.组成；在于；一致 2.______ n.厨师；主厨 3.______ vt.填满；把……塞进; n.东西；物品 4.______ n.脾气；火气 5.______ n.品牌 6.______ adj.稳定的；稳重的 7.______ n.食堂；餐厅 8.______ adv.有点；稍微 9.______ adv.不顾；不加理会 10.______ n.纤维；纤维制品 11.______ n.数量；数额 12.______ adj.完美的；理想的；想象的；n.理想；完美的人(或事物) 13.______ vi.& vt.咀嚼；嚼碎; n. 咀嚼 14.______ adj.一致的；连续的 15.______ adj.些许的；谦虚的；朴素的 16.______ n.诀窍；计谋；把戏 17.______ adv.总体上；大致上; adj.  全面的；综合的 维度2　短语翻译 1. 将这俗语与健康饮食联系起来 _______________________________________ 2. 参考......_______________________________________ 3. 似乎......_______________________________________ 4. 之前_______________________________________ 5. 包括，由......组成_______________________________________ 6. 裹着甜酱的炸鸡_______________________________________ 7. 加入......_______________________________________ 8. 另一方面_______________________________________ 9. 在我们的桌子上摆满最好的食物_______________________________________ 10. 因此_______________________________________ 11. 煮熟的或烤的肉_______________________________________ 12. 至少_______________________________________ 13. 换句话说_______________________________________ 14. 减少甜点_______________________________________ 15. 少喝甜饮料_______________________________________ 16. 富含维生素和纤维_______________________________________ 17. 而不是加工食品。_______________________________________ 18. 如同，和......一样，就......而言_______________________________________ 19. 健康饮食的基本要素_______________________________________ 20. 此外_______________________________________ 21. 同时_______________________________________ 22. 对食物有健康的态度_______________________________________ 维度3　完成句子 1. ____________________ (告诉我你吃什么), and I will tell you what you are. 2. ___________________________ (又累又饿，而且一句汉语也不会), we had no idea how to order, so the chef just began filling our table with the best food we had ever eaten. 3.

Language is part of our daily lives, no matter where we live in the world. ___36___ Both language and music play a huge role in our culture and here are some of their similarities.

We can read the ideas or hear the composition (作品) of someone who lived hundreds of years ago. ___38___ You can make a good guess at where someone is from by listening to the language he uses. In the same way, we know that styles of music are different around the world, giving us the opportunity to explore many different cultures through their music and providing us with music for every situation. Both share emotion. ___39___ Of course you may be able to see it in my face, but you will know for sure through my words. Similarly, music can sound angry, sad or happy. Music can show you exactly how the composer was or is feeling, and allows us to share that emotion. When you feel happy, you might want to sing and dance to a happy song to celebrate your happiness.___40___ I think we have all used music to express or process our emotions, often combining it with language in the form of song lyrics (歌词). A. Both are expressive. B. Similarly, music is part of many people's lives. C. So just as you read English, you can read music. D. We use language to express our thoughts. E. In contrast, you probably also listen to sad music when you are feeling down. F. How do you know that I am angry? G. Both vary with culture. 【答案】36. B 37. C 38. G 39. F 40. E 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章讲述了语言和音乐在我们的文化中都扮演着重要的角色，两者有着多个相似之处；有书写系统，依附于各自的文化、能分享情感。 【36题详解】 根据上文“Language is part of our daily lives, no matter where we live in the world. (无论我们生活在世界的哪个角落，语言都是我们日常生活的一部分。)”和下文“Both language and music play a huge role in our culture and here are some of their similarities. (语言和音乐在我们的文化中都扮演着重要的角色，以下是它们的一些相似之处。)”可知，上文指出语言是我们日常生活的一部分，后文说语言和音乐在文化中都扮演着重要的作用。由此可知，音乐和语言一样——是日常生活的一部分。B项“Similarly, music is part of many people’s lives. (同样，音乐也是许多人生活的一部分)”符合题意，承接上下文。故选B项。 【37题详解】 根据上文“In English we record language using the alphabet, which is a collection of letters.((在英语中，我们用字母表记录语言，字母表是字母的集合。)”和“Musicians read notes and create meaning in the form of music. (音乐家们阅读音符，并以音乐的形式创造意义)”可知，英语是一种以字母记录的语言，音乐是音符组成的篇章，也有可读性。C项“So just as you read English, you can read music.(所以就像你读英语一样，你也可以读音乐)”，音乐也可以像英语一样进行阅读，上下文衔接连贯。故选C项。 【38题详解】 空处为本段小标题。根据下文“You can make a good guess at where someone is from by listening to the language he uses. In the same way, we know that styles of music are different around the world, giving us the opportunity to explore many different cultures through their music and providing us with music for every situation. (你可以通过听一个人使用的语言来猜测他来自哪里。同样，我们知道世界各地的音乐风格是不同的，这让我们有机会通过他们的音乐来探索许多不同的文化，并为我们提供适合各种情况的音乐。)”可知，音乐和语言一样都承载了很多不同的文化。G项“Both vary with culture. (两者都带着各种各样的文化)”，both指代下文的language和music，可以作为小标题。故选G项。 【39题详解】 根据小标题“Both share emotion. (双方共享情感)”可知，本段和情绪有关。F项“How do you know that I am angry? (你怎么知道我生气了？)”符合题意，且与下文“Of course you may be able to see it in my face, but you will know for sure through my words. (你当然可以从我的脸上看出来，但你也一定会通过我的话知道。)”承接F项，是对选项问题的回答。故选F项。 【40题详解】 根据上文“When you feel happy, you might want to sing and dance to a happy song to celebrate your happiness. (当你感到快乐的时候，你可能想跟着快乐的歌曲唱歌跳舞来庆祝你的快乐)”可知，快乐的时候，想听令人快乐的歌曲。由此推知，下文陈述，当不快乐的时候，可能想听悲伤的音乐。E项“In contrast, you probably also listen to sad music when you are feeling down. (相反，当你情绪低落时，你可能也会听悲伤的音乐。)”，与上文形成对比。故选E项。 三、完形填空 Online deception is now so commonplace that criminal gangs are using it as part of a wider range of activities to make money out of the public. “There’s been a rapid normalisation of online as people see how ___21___ it can be.

Investigate调查；B. Consult咨询；C. Avoid 避免；D. Guarantee保证。根据最后一段给消费者提供保护账户不被窃取密码的方法，建议用多种字符，如数字、符号、大写字母等，空格后面是“明显的字典里的词”，这是很容易查找出来的，所以如果要避免被盗取密码是不能用这种文字的，故选C。 四、用单词的适当形式完成短文 In the 1920s, the American economy was very strong, and life was good.

I mapped my life out: I’d study neuroscience at a top university and proceed to do a master’s, a Ph. D., and a postdoc, all of which would somehow lead to a prosperous career. But it didn’t go quite as planned. During the research part of my master’s degree, I found myself putting in 8 hours of work per day with little enthusiasm. I wasn’t ready to let go of my dream, however. I decided to apply to Ph. D. programs. After numerous rejections, I got accepted into a program in Zurich. I was relieved, but I also doubted whether I was the right person for the job. Within 2 years, it became clear that I was failing to master the skills I needed, and I found the work no more satisfying than during my master’s. My mental health worsened. I would lie in bed wide awake for hours. I struggled with whether to quit: If I gave up, all the years I had devoted to academia would turn out a waste of time. Then a friend noticed my mental and physical exhaustion. “Is this you. George? ” he asked one day. After hearing those words, all of my hesitation about quitting disappeared. I resigned the next day. It felt liberating to be honest with myself about a path that wasn't meant for me. Still, I needed to decide what to do next. I thought about a lecture I had recently attended. “If only we could get the general public to feel the awe (敬畏) that I’m feeling!” I remember thinking at the time. That got me wondering whether writing and communicating about science might be a good profession. I looked around and came across exceptional news features in science magazines, written by individuals without a Ph. D. I began to think I could have a career writing about general science and the work of scientists and researchers. 注意： 1. 续写词数应为150个左右； 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 I signed up for a feature writing course. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ I feel as though I’m on the right path now, writing about public health. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 I signed up for a feature writing course. Daring the course, the teachers gave me some tips about what made a good science writer. All this confirmed my interest in science writing. After that I went on to become a regular contributor at a volunteer-run science publication. I worked enthusiastically, helping edit scientific content for clients. And I’ve started a master’s program in public health, which I’m hoping to lead to a career communicating about public health. I feel as though I’m on the right path now, writing about public health. I’m overwhelmed with excitement and pride to hear from my readers, who told me that they had benefited a lot from my articles. Meanwhile, to make good articles for my readers, I’ve found new enthusiasm for scientific research. For one thing, I’ve found great comfort and familiarity to be in company with the scientists and researchers in the work. What’s more, I’m struck with their great determination in face of difficulty, which I conveyed to my readers through my writing. Clearly there are many paths open for people interested in science 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了作者从小梦想成为科学家，并制定了详细的职业规划。然而，在攻读硕士和博士的过程中，作者逐渐发现自己对这个领域的热情消退，技能和满足感也日渐匮乏，导致精神健康状况受到影响。在经历了一番挣扎后，作者在朋友的关心下选择辞职。受到一次讲座的启发，作者开始将目光投向了科学写作和传播，发现了新的职业可能性。最终，作者决定从事科学及科学家和研究人员工作的写作，为未来的职业发展找到了新的方向。 【详解】 1. 段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“我报了一个专题写作课程。”可知，第一段可描写作者开始从事科学写作工作。 ②由第二段首句内容“我觉得我现在走上了正确的道路，开始写关于公共卫生的文章。”可知，第二段可描写成为科学作家之后的感受。 2. 续写线索：报名专题写作——证实了对科学写作的兴趣——报考公共卫生硕士课程——传播公共卫生——感受。 3. 词汇激活 行为类 ①证实：confirm/corroborate ②开始：start/begin ③传达：convey/send 情绪类 ①兴奋：excitement/enthusiasm ②舒适：comfort/enjoyment 【点睛】 [高分句型1]And I’ve started a master’s program in public health, which I’m hoping to lead to a career communicating about public health.(运用了which引导的非限制性定语从句) [高分句型2]I’m overwhelmed with excitement and pride to hear from my readers, who told me that they had benefited a lot from my articles.(运用了who引导的非限制性定语从句) 1 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
