The classes will consist of lectures and practical sessions (课). Students will not only learn how to play guqin and sing poems by famous poets from different Chinese dynasties such as Farewell to Meng Haoran at Yellow Crane Terrace by Li Bai, but also will learn standard Chinese through these poems. At the end of the course, students will be able to sing at least five famous Chinese poems while playing guqin, and will have a broad appreciation of Chinese culture.

School is still out for the summer, but at Eastern Senior High School in Washington, D. C., students are hard at work outdoors. In a garden filled with flowers and beds bursting with vegetables and herbs, nearly a dozen teenagers are harvesting (收获) vegetables for the weekend’s farmers market.
Roshawn Little is going into her junior year at Eastern, and has been working in this garden for three years now. During the summer, Little gets paid to work Tuesday through Saturday from 9 a. m. until 2 p. m. with City Blossoms, a nonprofit that brings community gardens to schools in urban areas. She believes that working in the garden has taught her to try all sorts of new things, like eating different kinds of vegetables more often. And she’s taken those healthy behaviours home with her and her eating habits have encouraged her family to buy more fruits and vegetables.
City Blossoms is one of many groups across the country teaming up with local communities to build school gardens, like the one at Eastern. It works with schools to create learning gardens and trains teachers on how to use them to get students engaged (使参与) and improve academic performance. These gardens are really outdoor classrooms. For example, the gardens can be used for math lessons, like calculating the area of a plant bed or learning the science of how plants grow.
For the students, the experience can be a nutritional eye-opener, which has totally changed their views on where food comes from, and what it takes to produce food. Partner schools have also seen a 12 to 15 percent increase in the number of students passing standardized tests and 94 percent of teachers reported seeing increased engagement from their students, according to an independent evaluation (评价) conducted by PEER Associates.
4. What does Roshawn Little think of the summer outdoor activity?
A. It is a good way to earn pocket money. B. It has improved her family relationship.
C. It contributes to her healthy eating habit. D. It is helpful to her academic performance.
5. What is the purpose of the school gardens?
A. To invite students to care for plants. B. To advance teachers’ teaching skills.
C. To get students interested in science. D. To provide a creative way of learning.
6. What does the last paragraph focus on about the project of City Blossoms?
A. Its evaluations. B. Its effects. C. Its operations. D. Its expectations.
7. What can be a suitable title for the text?
A. City Blossoms: Team up with Local Community Teachers
B. Happy Holiday, Sweet Memory: How Kids Enjoy the Harvest
C. Outdoor Classrooms: Get out for the Weekend’s Farmers Market.
D. Healthy Eaters, Smart Minds: What School Gardens Teach Kids
C
Imagine a world where you move around in front of a personal computer in your own sound space. You listen to your favorite songs, play loud computer games or watch a movie — all without other people hearing the sound. That is the possibility presented by “sound beaming”, a new technology from Noveto Systems, an Israeli company.
On Friday, the company debuted (首发) a desktop device that sends sound directly to a listener without the need for headphones or a special receiver. Noveto Systems gave The Associated Press (AP) a chance to test its Sound Beamer 1.0 before its debut. The AP’s Louise Dixon writes that listening to the device is like something from a science fiction movie. The sound seems so close that it feels like it is inside your ears while also in front, above and behind them.
Noveto expects the device will have many uses. Office workers could listen to music or conference calls without others hearing. People could play a game, a movie or music without waking up others in the same room. However, because the device does not use headphones, it is possible to hear other sounds in the room clearly.
The device uses a 3-D technology that finds and follows the ear position of the listener. It sends ultrasonic (超声的) waves to create sound pockets by the user’s ears. Sound can be heard in stereo or 3-D. The 3-D method creates sound on all sides of the listener, the company said.
The demo (样本) version of the device included nature videos of birds on a lake, bees flying and a quiet waterway. Most people trying the technology for the first time just say, “Wow. I really don’t believe it. It sounds like a speaker, but no one else can hear it... it’s supporting you and you' re in the middle of everything. It’s happening around you.”
By changing a setting, the sound can follow a listener around when they move their head. It is also possible to move out of the sound beam's path and hear nothing at all.
While the idea of sound beaming is not new, Noveto was the first to launch the technology. Its chief executive officer Christophe Ramstein said a “smaller” version of the device would be put on the market next year.
8. What is special about the device?
A. A variety of functions. B. The use of 3-D technology.
C. An escape from other sounds around. D. The absence of headphones for listeners.
9. What was Louise Dixon’s attitude toward the device?
A. She did not state clearly. B. She thought it was unreal.
C. She thought it was amazing. D. She did not think it user-friendly.
10. What is mainly talked about in Para.4?
A. How the device works. B. Why the device is created.
C. What advantages the device has. D. Who the device is intended for.
11. What will get improved about the device?
A. Its original idea. B. Its present size.
C. Its positioning ability. D. Its sound effect.
D
Ruth Bader Ginsburg had skipped the lunch the morning of January 17, 1973. She was afraid she would throw up. Wearing her mother’s pin and earrings, like a soldier suiting up for battle, RBG stood alone in front of nine stone-faced men and asked them to do something they had until then refused to do: recognize that the Constitution (宪法) banned sex discrimination (歧视).
All oral arguments at the Supreme Court begin the same way: “Mr. Chief Justice, and may it please the court.” You can listen to the recording of RBG speaking these words, how at first they came out a little shakily. It was her first time arguing before the court.
To relieve the sickness in her stomach, she had memorized the opening sentence. She told the justices about Sharron Frontiero, an air force soldier whose husband, Joseph, had been denied (拒绝) the same housing, medical, and dental benefits as other military spouses (配偶), simply because Sharron was a woman and Joseph was a man.
Fourteen months earlier, the court had ruled on the case of an Idaho woman denied the right to manage her dead son’s estate (财产) because she was a woman. The justices said in the case of Reed v. Reed that the state couldn’t naturally assume men were better equipped to handle (处理) an estate than women. But they had left unsolved the broader question of whether discriminating on the basis of sex was almost always unconstitutional. RBG took a deep breath and told the justices they had to finish the job they started.
The state law in Reed case and the federal one she challenged that day in Frontiero v. Richardson, RBG argued, drew on “the same stereotype (刻板印象). The man is or should be the independent partner in a married unit. The woman, in most cases, is dependent, protected from bread-winning experience.”
Suddenly, she felt the ground steady under her. These men, the most important judges in the country, were her audience for the next ten minutes. RBG knew so much more about the case and the topic than they did. She had to teach them. She knew how to do that. RBG had been teaching law for almost a decade.
12. Which of the following can best describe RGB from Para.1 to Para.3?
A. Guilty but decided. B. Tricky but shy.
C. Awkward but humorous. D. Nervous but strict.
13. What is the job that should be finished in Reed v. Reed case by justices?
A. To equip independent women to get real estate.
B To judge the sex-based discrimination unlawful.
C. To stop regarding men as better handlers of an estate.
D. To deny a woman’s right to manage her dead son’s estate.
14. What does “the same stereotype” in Para.5 refer to?
A. Men can escape the responsibility for supporting family.
B. Women are regarded as dependent partners in the marriage.
C. Men are lucky to be saved from the pressures of the real world.
D. Women should have the same social position in the world as men.
15. Where might this text be taken from?
A. A life story. B. A book review.
C. A court judgement. D. A personal diary.

In life, everyone wants to have friends who he or she can trust forever. ___16___ It is scary because in most cases you have to get out of your comfort zone and put yourself out there.

One thing to be cautious about, when you meet new people, is to be always genuine (真诚的). ___20___ If you don’t like fishing or running, then don’t pretend that you do just so someone will be friends with you.

School is still out for the summer, but at Eastern Senior High School in Washington, D. C., students are hard at work outdoors. In a garden filled with flowers and beds bursting with vegetables and herbs, nearly a dozen teenagers are harvesting (收获) vegetables for the weekend’s farmers market.
Roshawn Little is going into her junior year at Eastern, and has been working in this garden for three years now. During the summer, Little gets paid to work Tuesday through Saturday from 9 a. m. until 2 p. m. with City Blossoms, a nonprofit that brings community gardens to schools in urban areas. She believes that working in the garden has taught her to try all sorts of new things, like eating different kinds of vegetables more often. And she’s taken those healthy behaviours home with her and her eating habits have encouraged her family to buy more fruits and vegetables.
City Blossoms is one of many groups across the country teaming up with local communities to build school gardens, like the one at Eastern. It works with schools to create learning gardens and trains teachers on how to use them to get students engaged (使参与) and improve academic performance. These gardens are really outdoor classrooms. For example, the gardens can be used for math lessons, like calculating the area of a plant bed or learning the science of how plants grow.
For the students, the experience can be a nutritional eye-opener, which has totally changed their views on where food comes from, and what it takes to produce food. Partner schools have also seen a 12 to 15 percent increase in the number of students passing standardized tests and 94 percent of teachers reported seeing increased engagement from their students, according to an independent evaluation (评价) conducted by PEER Associates.
4. What does Roshawn Little think of the summer outdoor activity?
A. It is a good way to earn pocket money. B. It has improved her family relationship.
C. It contributes to her healthy eating habit. D. It is helpful to her academic performance.
5. What is the purpose of the school gardens?
A. To invite students to care for plants. B. To advance teachers’ teaching skills.
C. To get students interested in science. D. To provide a creative way of learning.
6. What does the last paragraph focus on about the project of City Blossoms?
A. Its evaluations. B. Its effects. C. Its operations. D. Its expectations.
7. What can be a suitable title for the text?
A. City Blossoms: Team up with Local Community Teachers
B. Happy Holiday, Sweet Memory: How Kids Enjoy the Harvest
C. Outdoor Classrooms: Get out for the Weekend’s Farmers Market.
D. Healthy Eaters Smart Minds: What School Gardens Teach Kids
【答案】4. C 5. D 6. B 7. D

Imagine a world where you move around in front of a personal computer in your own sound space. You listen to your favorite songs, play loud computer games or watch a movie — all without other people hearing the sound. That is the possibility presented by “sound beaming”, a new technology from Noveto Systems, an Israeli company.
On Friday, the company debuted (首发) a desktop device that sends sound directly to a listener without the need for headphones or a special receiver. Noveto Systems gave The Associated Press (AP) a chance to test its Sound Beamer 1.0 before its debut. The AP’s Louise Dixon writes that listening to the device is like something from a science fiction movie. The sound seems so close that it feels like it is inside your ears while also in front, above and behind them.
Noveto expects the device will have many uses. Office workers could listen to music or conference calls without others hearing. People could play a game, a movie or music without waking up others in the same room. However, because the device does not use headphones, it is possible to hear other sounds in the room clearly.
The device uses a 3-D technology that finds and follows the ear position of the listener. It sends ultrasonic (超声的) waves to create sound pockets by the user’s ears. Sound can be heard in stereo or 3-D. The 3-D method creates sound on all sides of the listener, the company said.
The demo (样本) version of the device included nature videos of birds on a lake, bees flying and a quiet waterway. Most people trying the technology for the first time just say, “Wow. I really don’t believe it. It sounds like a speaker, but no one else can hear it... it’s supporting you and you' re in the middle of everything. It’s happening around you.”
By changing a setting, the sound can follow a listener around when they move their head. It is also possible to move out of the sound beam's path and hear nothing at all.
While the idea of sound beaming is not new, Noveto was the first to launch the technology. Its chief executive officer Christophe Ramstein said a “smaller” version of the device would be put on the market next year.
8. What is special about the device?
A. A variety of functions. B. The use of 3-D technology.
C. An escape from other sounds around. D. The absence of headphones for listeners.
9. What was Louise Dixon’s attitude toward the device?
A. She did not state clearly. B. She thought it was unreal.
C. She thought it was amazing. D. She did not think it user-friendly.
10. What is mainly talked about in Para.4?
A. How the device works. B. Why the device is created.
C. What advantages the device has. D. Who the device is intended for.
11. What will get improved about the device?
A. Its original idea. B. Its present size.
C. Its positioning ability. D. Its sound effect.
【答案】8. D 9. C 10. A 11. B
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇新闻报道。文章主要讲述了以色列一家公司开发了“声音光束”的设备,不用耳机就可以传送声音以及这种设备的工作原理。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中“On Friday, the company debuted (首发) a desktop device that sends sound directly to a listener without the need for headphones or a special receiver. (上周五,该公司推出了一款桌面设备,无需耳机或特殊接收器就能直接向听者发送声音)”可知,该设备的特别之处在于听众不需要耳机。故选D。
【9题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段中“The AP’s Louise Dixon writes that listening to the device is like something from a science fiction movie. The sound seems so close that it feels like it is inside your ears while also in front, above and behind them.(美联社的Louise Dixon写道,听这个设备就像科幻电影中的情节。声音离你如此之近,让你感觉它就在你的耳朵里,同时也在耳朵的前面、上面和后面)”可知,在Louise Dixon看来,这个设备是很神奇的。故选C。
【10题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第四段“The device uses a 3-D technology that finds and follows the ear position of the listener. It sends ultrasonic (超声的) waves to create sound pockets by the user’s ears. Sound can be heard in stereo or 3-D. The 3-D method creates sound on all sides of the listener, the company said.(该设备使用了一种3D技术,可以找到并跟踪听者耳朵的位置。它通过发送超声波在使用者的耳朵旁制造出声音袋。声音可以以立体声或3D的形式被听到。3D方法在听者的四周创造声音)”可知,第四段主要讲的是该设备的工作原理。故选A。
【11题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段中“Its chief executive officer Christophe Ramstein said a “smaller” version of the device would be put on the market next year.(该公司首席执行官Christophe Ramstein表示,该设备的“更小”版本将于明年上市)”可推知,这种设备将改进其目前的尺寸,故选B。

Ruth Bader Ginsburg had skipped the lunch the morning of January 17, 1973. She was afraid she would throw up. Wearing her mother’s pin and earrings, like a soldier suiting up for battle, RBG stood alone in front of nine stone-faced men and asked them to do something they had until then refused to do: recognize that the Constitution (宪法) banned sex discrimination (歧视).
All oral arguments at the Supreme Court begin the same way: “Mr. Chief Justice, and may it please the court.” You can listen to the recording of RBG speaking these words, how at first they came out a little shakily. It was her first time arguing before the court.
To relieve the sickness in her stomach, she had memorized the opening sentence. She told the justices about Sharron Frontiero, an air force soldier whose husband, Joseph, had been denied (拒绝) the same housing, medical, and dental benefits as other military spouses (配偶), simply because Sharron was a woman and Joseph was a man.
Fourteen months earlier, the court had ruled on the case of an Idaho woman denied the right to manage her dead son’s estate (财产) because she was a woman. The justices said in the case of Reed v. Reed that the state couldn’t naturally assume men were better equipped to handle (处理) an estate than women. But they had left unsolved the broader question of whether discriminating on the basis of sex was almost always unconstitutional. RBG took a deep breath and told the justices they had to finish the job they started.
The state law in Reed case and the federal one she challenged that day in Frontiero v. Richardson, RBG argued, drew on “the same stereotype (刻板印象). The man is or should be the independent partner in a married unit. The woman, in most cases, is dependent, protected from bread-winning experience.”
Suddenly, she felt the ground steady under her. These men, the most important judges in the country, were her audience for the next ten minutes. RBG knew so much more about the case and the topic than they did. She had to teach them. She knew how to do that. RBG had been teaching law for almost a decade.
12. Which of the following can best describe RGB from Para.1 to Para.3?
A. Guilty but decided. B. Tricky but shy.
C. Awkward but humorous. D. Nervous but strict.
13. What is the job that should be finished in Reed v. Reed case by justices?
A. To equip independent women to get real estate.
B. To judge the sex-based discrimination unlawful.
C. To stop regarding men as better handlers of an estate.
D. To deny a woman’s right to manage her dead son’s estate.
14. What does “the same stereotype” in Para.5 refer to?
A. Men can escape the responsibility for supporting family.
B. Women are regarded as dependent partners in the marriage.
C. Men are lucky to be saved from the pressures of the real world.
D. Women should have the same social position in the world as men.
15. Where might this text be taken from?
A. A life story. B. A book review.
C. A court judgement. D. A personal diary.
【答案】12. D 13. B 14. B 15. A
【解析】
【导语】本文是记叙文。讲述了Ruth Bader Ginsburg在1973年1月17日早晨,在美国最高法院面前勇敢地站出来,要求法院承认宪法禁止性别歧视的故事。
【12题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段“Ruth Bader Ginsburg had skipped the lunch the morning of January 17, 1973. She was afraid she would throw up.(1973年1月17日上午,Ruth Bader Ginsburg没有吃午饭。她怕自己会呕吐)”以及第二段“All oral arguments at the Supreme Court begin the same way: “Mr. Chief Justice, and may it please the court.” You can listen to the recording of RBG speaking these words, how at first they came out a little shakily.(最高法院的所有口头辩论都以同样的方式开始:“首席大法官先生,愿法庭满意。”你可以听一下RBG说这些话的录音,一开始他们说话的时候有点颤抖)”可知,她是紧张的,再根据第一段“Wearing her mother’s pin and earrings, like a soldier suiting up for battle, RBG stood alone in front of nine stone-faced men and asked them to do something they had until then refused to do: recognize that the Constitution (宪法) banned sex discrimination (歧视).(RBG戴着母亲的胸针和耳环,像一名准备战斗的士兵,独自站在9个面无表情的男人面前,要求他们做一件他们此前一直拒绝做的事:承认宪法禁止性别歧视)”可知,她是严格的。故选D项。
【13题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段“The justices said in the case of Reed v. Reed that the state couldn’t naturally assume men were better equipped to handle (处理) an estate than women. But they had left unsolved the broader question of whether discriminating on the basis of sex was almost always unconstitutional.(法官们在里德诉里德案中表示,州政府不能想当然地认为男性比女性更有能力处理个人财产。但他们没有解决一个更广泛的问题,即基于性别的歧视是否几乎总是违宪的)”可知,在里德诉里德案中法官应该完成的工作是判定性别歧视不合法。故选B项。
【14题详解】
词句猜测题。根据后文“The man is or should be the independent partner in a married unit. The woman, in most cases, is dependent, protected from bread-winning experience.(男方是或者应该是婚姻单位中独立的一方。在大多数情况下,女性是依赖他人的,无法获得养家糊口的经验)”可知,the same stereotype指的是妇女在婚姻中被视为依赖的伙伴。故选B项。
【15题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段“Ruth Bader Ginsburg had skipped the lunch the morning of January 17, 1973. She was afraid she would throw up. Wearing her mother’s pin and earrings, like a soldier suiting up for battle, RBG stood alone in front of nine stone-faced men and asked them to do something they had until then refused to do: recognize that the Constitution (宪法) banned sex discrimination (歧视).(1973年1月17日上午,Ruth Bader Ginsburg没有吃午饭。她怕自己会呕吐。RBG戴着母亲的胸针和耳环,像一名准备战斗的士兵,独自站在9个面无表情的男人面前,要求他们做一件他们此前一直拒绝做的事:承认宪法禁止性别歧视)”以及纵观全文可知,本文主要讲述了Ruth Bader Ginsburg在1973年1月17日早晨,在美国最高法院面前勇敢地站出来,要求法院承认宪法禁止性别歧视的故事,所以应是一个生活故事。故选A项。
