The dramatic exhibition reveals the secrets behind the 2,000-year-old army of clay statues that guarded the tomb of China’s first emperor until a chance discovery in 1974. The Best Time to See The Terracotta Army is an indoor attraction, which is not likely to be affected by weather, so it can be visited all year round. As the Terracotta Army Museum is one of the must-visit attractions in China, it is crowded most of the time, especially during weekends and Chinese public holidays such as National Day holiday and Labor Day holiday. How to Get Your Entry Tickets for the Terracotta Army The Terracotta Army Museum currently doesn’t sell tickets on-site. Tickets must be bought in advance online. You can buy tickets via the Terracotta Army Museum WeChat account in Chinese or its official website in English by logging in.

By chance, a friend of ours in Australia mentioned“ pet sitting” and that it is something you can do all over the world. We quickly created an account on a pet sitting website and began searching for options. There were only a couple of sits available in that part of the world, but we tried our luck, sent a request, and to our surprise landed a three- month job in Grenada, so our year was going to be taken up with Caribbean pet sits. Inspired by a Canadian couple, we decided to start our own travel blog. We began by writing about The Virgin Islands, highlighting the beautiful beaches. However, for every photo album of a beautiful beach, there were 10 photos of trash (垃圾). It was hard to ignore the plastic pollution issue, especially on such primitive and remote beaches. So, we began to share photos of the trash we saw and how much we could pick up on our daily dog walks. The more we looked into plastic pollution, the more we realized the severity of the global plastic pollution. From that point, we used our platform to create awareness and highlight ways to say no to plastic and travel plastic- free. We changed our daily routines, our way of living, and even our diets to accommodate more organic foods and little to no plastic packaging. It’s been over three years now and we continue to do what we can. This journey has led us to some amazing places, working with great brands and even organizing a country- wide beach clean-up campaign in Grenada. Our aim now is to keep on going. We love connecting with like- minded people. It’s been amazing few years that was sparked by a conversation about pet sitting. Who would have guessed? 4. Why did the author do pet sitting? A.

Action should be taken to fight plastic pollution. B. The Caribbean is an ideal travel destination. C. Travel blog is a superb way to gain popularity. D. Pet sitting is a new type of occupation. 6.

Changing Lifestyles by Pet Sitting. B. Dealing with Global Environment Pollution. C. Unexpected Gains from Pet Sitting Travel. D. The Availability of Pet Sitting in the Caribbean. C “It’s not unusual for guests to feel emotional when they discover the story behind our food,” says Patrick Navis. “Not to mention when they taste it. One even cried with happiness.” The setting for these tearful scenes? Navis’s restaurant in a Dutch city. Here, the owner and his team create experimental food using herbs, roots, flowers and nuts— some common, others less so. Most of these ingredients come from the Ketelbroek Food Forest nearby. To the untrained eye, it’s like an ordinary wood. But there’s one key difference: everything in it is edible (可食用的). It was set up in 2009 by Dutch botanist and environmentalist Noah Eck as an experiment in slow farming, to see what would happen if the right combination of food plants were left to grow together like a natural forest, without chemicals. “It’s the first ‘food forest’ of its kind in Europe and we’re one of the few restaurants around the world cooperating in this way,” says Navis. “We have over 400 different species of edible plants we plan our menus around, including some we previously knew little about.” He harvests the ingredients and, with his fellow chefs, works them into beautifully presented tasting menus, served in a dining room hidden in the backstreets of the city, “To us, fine dining is not about the fame of a restaurant, its location, expensive decoration, fancy cooking and wine list,” says Navis. “It’s about adding value through creativity and using ingredients nobody knows of, which are grown with great attention.” However, he adds, luxury cooking can be about enhancing everyday ingredients, too. “When looking at cooking in this way, who can argue that caviar (鱼子酱), for example, is more valuable than a carrot grown with specialist knowledge?” Experimentation is extremely important to Navis. In the next five years, he hopes to open an outdoor restaurant. But for now, the most important thing is to continue focusing on how plants are being grown and the perennial system used in the Food Forest, reducing the need for replanting each season. 8. What can we learn about Navis’s restaurant? A. It is known for its rare food sources. B. It serves food with moving stories. C. It offers experimental food for free. D. It is well received by its guests. 9 How is Ketelbrock Food Forest different from ordinary woods? A. It is a natural forest. B. Diverse plants coexist in it. C. It provides safe food ingredients. D. Plants there take longer to grow. 10 What is the key element of fine dining according to Navis? A. Convenient locations. B. Expensive ingredients. C. Innovative menus. D. Fancy cooking techniques. 11. What does “the perennial system” in the last paragraph probably refer to? A. Farming with proper use of chemicals. B. The sustainable farming practice. C. Natural farming without human intervention. D. An experimental farm for an outdoor restaurant. D Theatre has a culture of its own and is a powerful medium for exposing problems. Plays are sometimes attempting to spread awareness about problems like racism, sexism, etc. These plays help our society better function because they cause individuals to realize what is happening and take action. It builds a passion in people since they realize what is really important to them and that they have the power to make a change. The main reason people go to theatre or even attend a show is to discover themselves. This means they want to come to a self-understanding and fulfilment. Human nature leads us to be original and theatre is the perfect outlet for people to be original and to understand themselves. For many people, theatre also gives a purpose for life. Human beings naturally want to express themselves, and theatre is the most expressive art form. “This is why theatre is important: because it presents a reflective vision of a life that is vastly more fascinating than the one in which we’re stuck.” — Lemony Snicket. Live theatre is as significant today as it was millennia (数千年) ago when our distant ancestors would gather around the fire to hear stories. Today we still gather in groups to hear stories being told, listen to music and put our demons in perspective. As a species, we have always turned to theatrical presentations to explore the unknown and explain our fears and concerns in an entertaining way. Theatre can also simply entertain, but there are few light “entertainments” which don’t include an underlying message. Today we are surrounded by other options for entertainment, like film, video, and online streaming. But theatre is a very different experience. While cinema is prerecorded, perfected by thousand shots of the same scene and editing effects, one might say what you see in theatre is raw, more organic. You surely can’t make Avengers: Endgame the same in a live event. But, the connection of the actor to the audience that makes Iago’s speech, or Hamlet’s speech what it is, is just not the same on film. 12. What can theatre bring to society? A. Solutions of racial issues. B. Development of media. C. Fulfilment of individuals. D. Exposure of social problems. 13. Why did the author quote the words from Lemony Snicket? A. To show the purpose of life. B. To express the nature of humans. C. To strengthen the function of theatre. D. To present a different point of view. 14. What can we know from the last paragraph? A. People tend to watch films than plays. B. Cinema and theatre have a lot in common. C. Films feature an original way of art. D. Theatres bring people live experience. 15. What does the passage mainly talk about? A. The types of theatre. B. The power of theatre. C. The challenges of theatre. D. The evolution of theatre. 第二节(共5小题; 每小题2.5分, 满分12.5分) 阅读下面短文, 从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Unlike other natural disasters such as hurricanes, earthquakes are very hard to see coming, even for scientists.

B 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇新闻报道。它介绍了荷兰一家独特的餐厅，该餐厅以“利用食物森林”中的食材进行创新烹饪为特色，展示了慢农业、可持续饮食以及美食创新的理念。 【8题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第一段 ““It’s not unusual for guests to feel emotional when they discover the story behind our food,” says Patrick Navis. “Not to mention when they taste it. One even cried with happiness.””（“当客人发现我们食物背后的故事时，他们感到情绪激动是很常见的 ”，帕特里克·纳维斯说。“更别提当他们品尝食物的时候了。甚至有人高兴地哭了。”）可推断，Navis的餐馆受到客人的欢迎。故选D。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第二段 “To the untrained eye, it’s like an ordinary wood. But there’s one key difference: everything in it is edible. ”（对于外行来说，它看起来像一片普通的树林。但有一个关键的区别：树林里的一切都是可食用的。）可知，Ketelbrock食品森林与普通森林不同之处在于，该森林提供安全的食材。故选C。 【10题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第四段““ To us, fine dining is not about the fame of a restaurant, its location, expensive decoration, fancy cooking and wine list,” says Navis. “ It’s about adding value through creativity and using ingredients nobody knows of, which are grown with great attention.” ” （纳维斯说：“对我们来说，美食不仅仅关乎餐厅的名声、位置、昂贵的装饰、精致的烹饪和酒单。”“而是通过创意为食物增加价值，使用那些鲜为人知且精心培育的食材。”）可知，对于Navis来说，优质餐饮的关键在于创新的菜单。故选C。 11题详解】 词句猜测题。根据划线部分前文“But for now, the most important thing is to continue focusing on how plants are being grown ”（但目前最重要的是，我们仍需继续关注植物是如何生长的。）以及后文“reducing the need for replanting each season ”（减少每个季节重新种植的需要）可知，Navis认为重要的是可以创造可持续农业，这样就不用每个季节重新种植，划线词与B选项“可持续农业实践”语意一致。故选B。 D Theatre has a culture of its own and is a powerful medium for exposing problems. Plays are sometimes attempting to spread awareness about problems like racism, sexism, etc. These plays help our society better function because they cause individuals to realize what is happening and take action. It builds a passion in people since they realize what is really important to them and that they have the power to make a change. The main reason people go to theatre or even attend a show is to discover themselves. This means they want to come to a self-understanding and fulfilment. Human nature leads us to be original and theatre is the perfect outlet for people to be original and to understand themselves. For many people, theatre also gives a purpose for life. Human beings naturally want to express themselves, and theatre is the most expressive art form. “This is why theatre is important: because it presents a reflective vision of a life that is vastly more fascinating than the one in which we’re stuck.” — Lemony Snicket. Live theatre is as significant today as it was millennia (数千年) ago when our distant ancestors would gather around the fire to hear stories. Today we still gather in groups to hear stories being told listen to music and put our demons in perspective. As a species, we have always turned to theatrical presentations to explore the unknown and explain our fears and concerns in an entertaining way. Theatre can also simply entertain, but there are few light “entertainments” which don’t include an underlying message. Today we are surrounded by other options for entertainment, like film, video, and online streaming. But theatre is a very different experience. While cinema is prerecorded, perfected by thousand shots of the same scene and editing effects, one might say what you see in theatre is raw, more organic. You surely can’t make Avengers: Endgame the same in a live event. But, the connection of the actor to the audience that makes Iago’s speech, or Hamlet’s speech what it is, is just not the same on film. 12. What can theatre bring to society? A. Solutions of racial issues. B. Development of media. C. Fulfilment of individuals. D. Exposure of social problems. 13. Why did the author quote the words from Lemony Snicket? A. To show the purpose of life. B. To express the nature of humans. C. To strengthen the function of theatre. D. To present a different point of view. 14. What can we know from the last paragraph? A. People tend to watch films than plays. B. Cinema and theatre have a lot in common. C. Films feature an original way of art. D. Theatres bring people live experience. 15. What does the passage mainly talk about? A. The types of theatre. B. The power of theatre. C. The challenges of theatre. D. The evolution of theatre. 【答案】12. D 13. C 14. D 15. B 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了戏剧的力量及其对社会和个人的影响。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第一段“Plays are sometimes attempting to spread awareness about problems like racism, sexism, etc.”（戏剧有时试图传播对种族主义、性别歧视等问题的认识。）可知，戏剧可以揭露社会问题。故选D项。 【13题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第三段“For many people, theatre also gives a purpose for life. Human beings naturally want to express themselves, and theatre is the most expressive art form. “This is why theatre is important: because it presents a reflective vision of a life that is vastly more fascinating than the one in which we’re stuck.” — Lemony Snicket.”（对许多人来说，戏剧也给了他们生活的目标。人类自然想要表达自己，而戏剧是最具表现力的艺术形式。“这就是为什么戏剧很重要：因为它展示了一种对生活的反思，这种生活比我们陷入困境的生活要迷人得多。——雷蒙·斯尼奇。）可知，作者引用Lemony Snicket的话是为了强调戏剧的功能。故选C。 【14题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章最后一段“While cinema is prerecorded, perfected by thousand shots of the same scene and editing effects, one might say what you see in theatre is raw, more organic.”（虽然电影是预先录制的，由同一场景的数千个镜头和编辑效果完善，但有人可能会说，你在剧院看到的是原始的，是现场存在的。）可知，戏剧带给人们的是现场体验。故选D。 【15题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文尤其是根据第一段“These plays help our society better function because they cause individuals to realize what is happening and take action. It builds a passion in people since they realize what is really important to them and that they have the power to make a change.”（这些戏剧有助于我们的社会更好地运作，因为它们使个人意识到正在发生的事情并采取行动。它能激发人们的热情，因为他们意识到什么对他们来说是真正重要的，他们有能力做出改变。）可知，短文主要是关于戏剧的力量。故选B。 第二节(共5小题; 每小题2.5分, 满分12.5分) 阅读下面短文, 从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Unlike other natural disasters such as hurricanes, earthquakes are very hard to see coming, even for scientists.
