Moab Music Festival B Jon Batiste, a big figure in the music world, views revisiting classic works as a golden opportunity, as seen in his latest album (专辑) “Beethoven Blues,” where he gives new life to Beethoven’s compositions. He perceives a universal and powerful essence in Beethoven’s music, similar to that in the blues. Batiste served as a bandleader for “The Late Show with Stephen Colbert” until 2022 and is now on the board at The Juilliard School. And he has received numerous Grammy nominations (提名) and wins across diverse musical categories. His documentary “American Symphony,” which details the composition and premiere of his symphony at Carnegie Hall in 2022, as well as the story of his wife Suleika Jaouad’s battle with leukemia(a type of blood illness), has earned him further recognition. Batiste maintains the idea that classical music, Beethoven’s works included, is suitable for reformation. There is a need to break away from the traditional perception of classical music. For instance, in his album, he starts with “Für Elise”, a piece familiar to many, and adds his own creative touches. However, Batiste’s journey at Juilliard was not without challenges. As an ambitious teenager from Louisiana, his unconventional pursuits outside the classroom sometimes conflicted with the school’s expectations. However, he later returned to Juilliard to honor his family’s musical legacy and is now working to make the institution more inclusive. During his wife’s illness, Batiste found that creativity served as a source of strength. His music, often associated with joy, also has roots in struggle, as exemplified by “American Symphony,” which addresses the nation’ s deep-seated pain and cultural tensions. Through his art, Batiste aims to bridge the past and present, creating works that resonate (共鸣) with the human experience. 4. What can we know about Batiste’s latest album? A. It was released when he was a bandleader. B. It is a collection of traditional blues music. C. It includes Beethoven’s original compositions. D. It gives new interpretations to Beethoven’s works. 5. What does paragraph 2 mainly focus on? A. Batiste’s musical accomplishments. B. Batiste’s source of inspiration. C. Batiste’s success in Grammy-related events. D. Batiste’s novel music comprehension. 6. Which words can best describe Batiste? A. Well-educated and ambitious. B. Broad-minded and creative. C. Warm-hearted and responsible. D. Strong-willed and considerate. 7. Which of the following might Batiste agree with? A. The newer, the better. B. Classics should always be respected. C. Something new can always be found in the old. D. There is nothing impossible for a willing heart. C In the remote villages of Western Alaska, a time-honored tradition known as “throwing parties” or “uqiquq” in the Yugtun language, means the commencement of the hunting and fishing season. This custom is deeply rooted in the community’s culture, serving as a celebration of not only the first catch but also significant life milestones such as graduations, births, and weddings. Mertarvik, a village situated a dozen miles from the Bering Sea, recently witnessed such a festive occasion. Mildred Tom, a local resident, took the initiative to organize this event to honor her daughter’s graduation and her grandchildren’s achievements. For several months, she had been carefully gathering and storing gifts in her home, preparing for the big day. The key of a throwing party lies in the joyous act of sharing. As the elders secure their positions among the gathering, Tom, along with her daughter Teddy Ann Bell and niece Amy Kassaili, engages in the heartwarming ceremony of tossing (投掷) gifts from a blue plastic container high into the air. The items, which include various candies, toys, and household items, represent a contemporary adaptation of the age-old practice of distributing the season’s first catch. As the distribution of gifts concludes, the younger members of the community search through the snow for any overlooked treasures. Each person departs with a special item, symbolizing the strengthening of communal (群体的) bonds that will last until the next throwing party in the fall. Safety and practicality are also considered in this celebration. Items that could pose a risk or are too large, such as wooden spoons, are carefully packed into canvas bags for distribution. The party serves double purpose, not only as a family celebration but also as a vital community gathering. This tradition stands as a symbol of the resilience (韧性) and solidarity of Western Alaska’s people, who depend on one another and their natural surroundings for life and a sense of belonging. 8. What does the underlined word “commencement” mean in paragraph 1? A. Conditions. B. Custom. C. Experiences. D. Beginning. 9. What are paragraphs 3 and 4 mainly about? A. How to stay safe at the throwing party. B. How the throwing party has developed. C. How Tom’s family hold the throwing party. D. How to make the throwing party heartwarming. 10. What was the throwing party initially intended to do? A. Distribute the season’s first catch. B. Celebrate life’s significant milestones. C. Honor the achievements of family members. D. Attract people to participate in a community gathering. 11. What’s the spirit of throwing parties? A. Sharing and unity. B. Courage and bond. C. Excellence and strength. D. Creativity and optimism. D In 1240, the. Holy Roman Emperor Frederick II built Castel del Monte on a lonely hill in central Puglia, where he had a perfect view of approaching enemies. He probably never imagined the enemies might be tourists one day. But these days, the old castle has been polished (打磨) clean, and hundreds of multicolored Pullman buses snake up the winding roads to its grounds, now filled with T-shirt stands, Coca-Cola signs and a 200-car parking lot. All this thanks to the fact that UNESCO has designated (认定) it a World Heritage Site in 1996. Officially, UNESCO honors places that exemplify an area’s ancestry, with the purpose of ensuring they are preserved. Unofficially, this designation is a kind of fair y dust that often turns little-known cultural sites into overnight tourist hotspots. This is both a gift and a problem. Lisa Mastny, senior adviser to the World Watch Institute, says tourism is double-edged for places considered of “outstanding value to humanity. It offers many poor communities the chance to obtain financial rewards, but also threatens the very resources — human and natural — upon which the industry is finally built”. There is growing awareness that giving UNESCO designation is worthless or worse, harmful — without some kind of follow-up preservation program. “In the early days there wasn’t much attention given to what would happen once these sites became World Heritage. But that’s changing slowly,” says Joseph King, director of the sites unit at the International Centre for the Study of the Preservation and Restoration of Cultural Property (ICCROM). In Africa. a 12-year training program is currently underway to teach locals not only how to preserve their immovable cultural heritage, but how to use it for economic development. In Eastern Europe, where tourism is a relatively new thing, cities are looking for help in figuring out where to draw the line between preserving historical centers and promoting urban development. 12. What can we learn about Castel del Monte? A. It was built to enjoy the view. B. It has become a hot tourist spot. C. It has to make way for a shopping mall. D. It failed to win UNESCO designation in 1996. 13. How does the author support King’s words in the last paragraph? A. By quoting experts. B. By analyzing cause and effect. C. By giving examples. D. By making comparisons. 14. Which of the following statements may Joseph King agree with? A. UNESCO designation needs follow-up preservation. B. UNESCO turns unknown sites into tourist attractions. C. Tourism offers financial rewards but also posing threats. D. Africa has balanced heritage preservation and urban development. 15. What might be the best title of the passage? A. The Economic Benefits of UNESCO Designation B. UNESCO’s Role in Preserving Ancient Castles C. The Double-Edged Sword of UNESCO World Heritage Status D. Tourism and Urban Development in Eastern Europe 第二节(共5小题;每小题2分，满分10分) 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Have you ever wondered what the food you eat everyday can tell you about where you come from?

And he has received numerous Grammy nominations (提名) and wins across diverse musical categories. His documentary “American Symphony,” which details the composition and premiere of his symphony at Carnegie Hall in 2022, as well as the story of his wife Suleika Jaouad’s battle with leukemia(a type of blood illness), has earned him further recognition. Batiste maintains the idea that classical music, Beethoven’s works included, is suitable for reformation. There is a need to break away from the traditional perception of classical music. For instance, in his album, he starts with “Für Elise”, a piece familiar to many, and adds his own creative touches. However, Batiste’s journey at Juilliard was not without challenges. As an ambitious teenager from Louisiana, his unconventional pursuits outside the classroom sometimes conflicted with the school’s expectations. However, he later returned to Juilliard to honor his family’s musical legacy and is now working to make the institution more inclusive. During his wife’s illness, Batiste found that creativity served as a source of strength. His music, often associated with joy, also has roots in struggle, as exemplified by “American Symphony,” which addresses the nation’ s deep-seated pain and cultural tensions. Through his art, Batiste aims to bridge the past and present, creating works that resonate (共鸣) with the human experience. 4. What can we know about Batiste’s latest album? A. It was released when he was a bandleader. B. It is a collection of traditional blues music. C. It includes Beethoven’s original compositions. D. It gives new interpretations to Beethoven’s works. 5. What does paragraph 2 mainly focus on? A. Batiste’s musical accomplishments. B. Batiste’s source of inspiration. C. Batiste’s success in Grammy-related events. D.

And he has received numerous Grammy nominations (提名) and wins across diverse musical categories. His documentary “American Symphony,” which details the composition and premiere of his symphony at Carnegie Hall in 2022, as well as the story of his wife Suleika Jaouad’s battle with leukemia(a type of blood illness), has earned him further recognition.(直到2022年，Batiste一直担任《斯蒂芬·科尔伯特深夜秀》的乐队指挥，现在是茱莉亚音乐学院的董事会成员。他曾多次获得格莱美奖提名，并在多个音乐奖项中获奖。他的纪录片《美国交响曲》详细记录了他的交响曲于2022年在卡内基音乐厅的创作和首演，以及他的妻子Suleika Jaouad与白血病（一种血液疾病）作斗争的故事，这使他得到了进一步的认可)”可知，本段主要介绍了Jon Batiste担任The Late Show with Stephen Colbert的乐队领队，在茱莉亚学院任职董事会，格莱美奖提名以及纪录片获得认可等内容。这些都体现了其音乐成就。故选A。 【6题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段“Batiste maintains the idea that classical music, Beethoven’s works included, is suitable for reformation. There is a need to break away from the traditional perception of classical music.(Batiste坚持认为古典音乐，包括贝多芬的作品，是适合改革的。有必要打破对古典音乐的传统看法)”可知，Batiste为贝多芬作品赋予了新的生命，主张打破对古典音乐的传统理解体现了他思想开明，能够接受新的音乐观念；根据最后一段“During his wife’s illness, Batiste found that creativity served as a source of strength. His music, often associated with joy, also has roots in struggle, as exemplified by “American Symphony,” which addresses the nation’ s deep-seated pain and cultural tensions. Through his art, Batiste aims to bridge the past and present, creating works that resonate (共鸣) with the human experience.(在妻子生病期间，巴蒂斯特发现创造力是力量的源泉。他的音乐，经常与欢乐联系在一起，也有斗争的根源，如“美国交响曲”，它解决了国家根深蒂固的痛苦和文化紧张关系。通过他的艺术，Batiste的目标是在过去和现在之间架起一座桥梁，创造出与人类经验产生共鸣的作品)”可知，他的纪录片《美国交响乐团》也展现了他在音乐创作上的创造力，能够把个人经历（妻子患白血病）与音乐结合起来，创作出能反映国家深层痛苦和文化紧张局势的作品，这些都充分体现了他的创造力。故选B。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“Jon Batiste, a big figure in the music world, views revisiting classic works as a golden opportunity, as seen in his latest album (专辑) “Beethoven Blues,” where he gives new life to Beethoven’s compositions.

This custom is deeply rooted in the community’s culture, serving as a celebration of not only the first catch but also significant life milestones such as graduations, births, and weddings. Mertarvik, a village situated a dozen miles from the Bering Sea, recently witnessed such a festive occasion. Mildred Tom, a local resident, took the initiative to organize this event to honor her daughter’s graduation and her grandchildren’s achievements. For several months, she had been carefully gathering and storing gifts in her home, preparing for the big day. The key of a throwing party lies in the joyous act of sharing. As the elders secure their positions among the gathering, Tom, along with her daughter Teddy Ann Bell and niece Amy Kassaili, engages in the heartwarming ceremony of tossing (投掷) gifts from a blue plastic container high into the air. The items, which include various candies, toys, and household items, represent a contemporary adaptation of the age-old practice of distributing the season’s first catch. As the distribution of gifts concludes, the younger members of the community search through the snow for any overlooked treasures. Each person departs with a special item, symbolizing the strengthening of communal (群体的) bonds that will last until the next throwing party in the fall. Safety and practicality are also considered in this celebration. Items that could pose a risk or are too large, such as wooden spoons, are carefully packed into canvas bags for distribution. The party serves double purpose, not only as a family celebration but also as a vital community gathering. This tradition stands as a symbol of the resilience (韧性) and solidarity of Western Alaska’s people, who depend on one another and their natural surroundings for life and a sense of belonging. 8. What does the underlined word “commencement” mean in paragraph 1? A. Conditions. B. Custom. C. Experiences. D. Beginning. 9. What are paragraphs 3 and 4 mainly about? A. How to stay safe at the throwing party. B. How the throwing party has developed. C. How Tom’s family hold the throwing party. D. How to make the throwing party heartwarming. 10. What was the throwing party initially intended to do? A. Distribute the season’s first catch. B. Celebrate life’s significant milestones. C. Honor the achievements of family members. D. Attract people to participate in a community gathering. 11. What’s the spirit of throwing parties? A. Sharing and unity. B. Courage and bond. C. Excellence and strength. D. Creativity and optimism. 【答案】8. D 9. C 10. A 11. A 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了一个阿拉斯加西部的偏远村庄“投掷派对”的传统，介绍了活动的过程和体现的内涵。 【8题详解】 词句猜测题。根据划线词后文“This custom is deeply rooted in the community’s culture, serving as a celebration of not only the first catch but also significant life milestones such as graduations, births, and weddings.(这个习俗深深植根于社区文化中，不仅是为了庆祝第一次捕获，也是为了庆祝重要的人生里程碑，如毕业、出生和婚礼)”可知，这个习俗庆祝第一次捕获，即说明“commencement”的意思是狩猎和捕鱼季节的开始。故划线词意思是“开始”。故选D。 【9题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第三段“The key of a throwing party lies in the joyous act of sharing. As the elders secure their positions among the gathering, Tom, along with her daughter Teddy Ann Bell and niece Amy Kassaili, engages in the heartwarming ceremony of tossing (投掷) gifts from a blue plastic container high into the air. The items, which include various candies, toys, and household items, represent a contemporary adaptation of the age-old practice of distributing the season’s first catch.(投掷派对的关键在于快乐的分享行为。当长辈们在聚会中占据了自己的位置时，汤姆和她的女儿泰迪·安·贝尔和侄女艾米·卡西一起，参加了一个温暖人心的仪式，把一个蓝色塑料容器里的礼物扔向空中。这些物品包括各种糖果、玩具和家庭用品，代表了分发季节第一次捕获的古老习俗的当代改编)”以及第四段“As the distribution of gifts concludes, the younger members of the community search through the snow for any overlooked treasures. Each person departs with a special item, symbolizing the strengthening of communal (群体的) bonds that will last until the next throwing party in the fall.(随着礼物分发的结束，社区的年轻成员在雪地里寻找任何被忽视的宝藏。每个人都带着一件特殊的物品离开，象征着社区纽带的加强，这种纽带将持续到秋天的下一个狂欢派对)”可知，第3段和第4段主要讲的是汤姆一家是如何举办投掷派对的。故选C。 【10题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“The items, which include various candies, toys, and household items, represent a contemporary adaptation of the age-old practice of distributing the season’s first catch.(这些物品包括各种糖果、玩具和家庭用品，代表了分发季节第一次捕获的古老习俗的当代改编)”可知，投掷派对最初打算分发第一批猎物。故选A。 【11题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“The key of a throwing party lies in the joyous act of sharing.(投掷派对的关键在于快乐的分享行为)”以及最后一段“This tradition stands as a symbol of the resilience (韧性) and solidarity of Western Alaska’s people, who depend on one another and their natural surroundings for life and a sense of belonging.(这一传统象征着阿拉斯加西部人民的坚韧和团结，他们相互依赖，依靠他们的自然环境生活和归属感)”可知，开派对的精神是分享和团结。故选A。 D In 1240, the. Holy Roman Emperor Frederick II built Castel del Monte on a lonely hill in central Puglia, where he had a perfect view of approaching enemies. He probably never imagined the enemies might be tourists one day. But these days, the old castle has been polished (打磨) clean, and hundreds of multicolored Pullman buses snake up the winding roads to its grounds, now filled with T-shirt stands, Coca-Cola signs and a 200-car parking lot. All this thanks to the fact that UNESCO has designated (认定) it a World Heritage Site in 1996. Officially, UNESCO honors places that exemplify an area’s ancestry, with the purpose of ensuring they are preserved. Unofficially, this designation is a kind of fair y dust that often turns little-known cultural sites into overnight tourist hotspots. This is both a gift and a problem. Lisa Mastny, senior adviser to the World Watch Institute, says tourism is double-edged for places considered of “outstanding value to humanity. It offers many poor communities the chance to obtain financial rewards, but also threatens the very resources — human and natural — upon which the industry is finally built”. There is growing awareness that giving UNESCO designation is worthless or worse, harmful — without some kind of follow-up preservation program. “In the early days there wasn’t much attention given to what would happen once these sites became World Heritage. But that’s changing slowly,” says Joseph King, director of the sites unit at the International Centre for the Study of the Preservation and Restoration of Cultural Property (ICCROM). In Africa. a 12-year training program is currently underway to teach locals not only how to preserve their immovable cultural heritage, but how to use it for economic development. In Eastern Europe, where tourism is a relatively new thing, cities are looking for help in figuring out where to draw the line between preserving historical centers and promoting urban development. 12. What can we learn about Castel del Monte? A. It was built to enjoy the view. B. It has become a hot tourist spot. C. It has to make way for a shopping mall. D. It failed to win UNESCO designation in 1996. 13. How does the author support King’s words in the last paragraph? A. By quoting experts. B. By analyzing cause and effect. C. By giving examples. D. By making comparisons. 14. Which of the following statements may Joseph King agree with? A. UNESCO designation needs follow-up preservation. B. UNESCO turns unknown sites into tourist attractions. C. Tourism offers financial rewards but also posing threats. D. Africa has balanced heritage preservation and urban development. 15. What might be the best title of the passage? A. The Economic Benefits of UNESCO Designation B. UNESCO’s Role in Preserving Ancient Castles C. The Double-Edged Sword of UNESCO World Heritage Status D. Tourism and Urban Development in Eastern Europe 【答案】12. B 13. C 14. A 15. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍联合国教科文组织世界遗产地位带来的双重影响，包括旅游发展机遇与文化遗产保护挑战，以及各地为平衡两者所做的努力。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“But these days, the old castle has been polished (打磨) clean, and hundreds of multicolored Pullman buses snake up the winding roads to its grounds, now filled with T-shirt stands, Coca-Cola signs and a 200-car parking lot. (但如今，这座古老的城堡已经被擦得干干净净，数百辆色彩斑斓的普尔曼（Pullman）巴士沿着蜿蜒的道路蜿蜒而上，驶往城堡的场地，现在到处都是t恤摊、可口可乐（Coca-Cola）的招牌和一个可容纳200辆车的停车场。)”以及第二段“Unofficially, this designation is a kind of fair y dust that often turns little-known cultural sites into overnight tourist hotspots. (非正式地说，这个称号是一种公平的尘埃，经常把鲜为人知的文化遗址变成一夜之间的旅游热点。)”可知，卡斯特尔德尔蒙特城堡现在成了热门旅游景点，许多旅游大巴都开往那里，故选B。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段““In the early days there wasn’t much attention given to what would happen once these sites became World Heritage. But that’s changing slowly,” says Joseph King, director of the sites unit at the International Centre for the Study of the Preservation and Restoration of Cultural Property (ICCROM). In Africa. a 12-year training program is currently underway to teach locals not only how to preserve their immovable cultural heritage, but how to use it for economic development. In Eastern Europe, where tourism is a relatively new thing, cities are looking for help in figuring out where to draw the line between preserving historical centers and promoting urban development. (“在早期，人们并没有太关注这些遗址成为世界遗产后会发生什么。但这种情况正在缓慢改变，”国际文化财产保护与修复研究中心（ICCROM）遗址部门主任约瑟夫·金（Joseph King）说。在非洲。目前，一项为期12年的培训计划正在进行中，该计划不仅教当地人如何保护他们的不可移动文化遗产，还教他们如何将其用于经济发展。在东欧，旅游业是一个相对较新的事物，城市正在寻求帮助，以弄清楚如何在保护历史中心和促进城市发展之间划清界限。)”可知作者是通过举非洲和东欧的例子来支持Joseph King的话，故选C。 【14题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“There is growing awareness that giving UNESCO designation is worthless or worse, harmful — without some kind of follow-up preservation program. “In the early days there wasn’t much attention given to what would happen once these sites became World Heritage. But that’s changing slowly,” says Joseph King, director of the sites unit at the International Centre for the Study of the Preservation and Restoration of Cultural Property (ICCROM). (越来越多的人意识到，如果没有后续的保护计划，被联合国教科文组织认定是毫无价值的，甚至是有害的。“在早期，人们并没有太关注这些遗址成为世界遗产后会发生什么。但这种情况正在缓慢改变，”国际文化财产保护与修复研究中心（ICCROM）遗址部门主任约瑟夫·金（Joseph King）说。)”可推知，Joseph King认为联合国教科文组织的认定需要后续的保护措施，故选A。 【15题详解】 主旨大意题。 通读全文，文章主要讲述了联合国教科文组织认定的世界遗产带来的好处（成为旅游热点，给当地带来经济收益）和问题（对资源构成威胁，需要后续保护等），所以“联合国教科文组织世界遗产地位的双刃剑”符合文章主旨，适合作标题，故选C。 第二节(共5小题;每小题2分，满分10分) 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Have you ever wondered what the food you eat everyday can tell you about where you come from?
