【答案】18. C 19. A 20. B
【解析】
【原文】M: Legong dance is a cultural tradition in Bali, Indonesia. Mainly young girls perform this dance. Their clothes are beautiful and colorful. The young dancers move slowly to traditional music. Their performance is mainly expressed through their faces, hands and fingers. Every move has a special meaning. The dance serves as a means to teach traditional stories, and a typical performance lasts for an hour. However, the length of the dances can be challenging for many tourists, so performances for them are shortened to 15 minutes, telling only a part of the story.
The change helps keep Legong dance alive. The money from tourists is important because it attracts new dancers to Legong dance. It is hard to hold on to traditions such as this because many people enjoy listening to newer music. If local people aren’t interested in the dances, then they might not be passed down to younger generations. Luckily, there is a growing interest in Legong dance. More people are learning and performing it. So, a wider audience can experience and value this beautiful tradition.

第一节(共15小题;每小题2.5分,满分37.5分)
A
Today I thought I’d blog about a question that has been asked many times — how do you stay safe online and avoid bad experiences on the Internet? I’m not an expert, but many years as a blogger have taught me a thing or two.
First of all, there’s the golden rule of the Internet: If you see or read something that makes you feel uncomfortable, leave the site immediately. Don’t post comments or click on anything. Second, protect your privacy. Don’t give out your address or phone number. Someone might use the information to steal your identity. Identity theft is a common and serious problem. Third, be polite. Being online is no excuse for being rude, and you don’t want to become a target for a troll or cyberbully. A troll is a person who posts comments or questions in order to stir up trouble online. Trolls often use several false names so that they can stay on a site. A cyberbully uses the Internet to be mean to others. Like a troll, a cyberbully will also write something mean but it is usually directed at particular people. He or she may also post embarrassing photos and information about those people. However, the more polite you are, the less likely it is you will be attacked.
Have you had any bad experiences online, or do you have some good advice for staying safe? Post your comments below!
Boy579: Last year, we were having problems in our chat room. Mean comments were being posted by someone we didn’t know. I think he or she was only trying to make trouble.
Amy: A girl at my school had a very bad experience online. A photo of her had been posted online and she was being made fun of. It seemed like a joke at first, but the girl was very upset.
21. What is the golden rule of the Internet according to the passage?
A. Never post comments online.
B. Click on everything you are interested in.
C. Leave the site immediately, if something makes you uncomfortable.
D. Share your address and phone number with friends.
22. Why should you protect your privacy online?
A. Because it is not important.
B. Because someone might use the information to steal your identity.
C. Because it is fun to share person information.
D. Because everyone does it.
23. What is a cyberbully?
A. A person who posts comments to make others laugh.
B. A person who uses the Internet to be kind to others.
C. A person who uses the Internet to be mean to particular person.
D. A person who only uses their real name online.
【答案】21. C 22. B 23. C
【解析】

Ireland’s beautiful countryside has always had a great influence on its people and traditions. The country has a long history of producing great writers and poets. Its beautiful countryside excites and inspires all, offering something for each of the senses. The peaceful landscape of the “Emerald Isle” and its many green counties is a true feast for the eyes, with its rolling green hills dotted with sheep and cattle. And down by the sea, the roar of the ocean waves and cries of the seabirds make up the music of the coast. On a quiet morning in the mountains, feel the sun on your skin, and breathe in the sweet scent of fresh flowers while birds greet the new day with their morning song. With all this beauty, it is not surprising that Ireland has developed strong traditions that include music, dancing, and dining. To have a chance of experiencing this, stop by a village pub and relax with a glass of wine or a local beer. Better yet, enjoy a delicious traditional Irish Beef Stew.

THE VIRTUAL CHOIR
Imagine having the opportunity to sing together with hundreds of other people while you are at home alone. You can do this in a virtual choir. Virtual choir members record themselves while they perform alone on video. These videos are uploaded onto the Internet, and then they are put together into one video that you can see online—a virtual choir. Anyone can take part in a virtual choir from anywhere—all you need is a video camera and an Internet connection. You do not even need a studio. A virtual choir helps connect ordinary people together. Many people do not have close friends or contacts who have the same interest in music. Many others do not have the chance to join a local choir. A virtual choir enables them to add their voices to those of other individuals and become part of the global community. It has proved to be a positive influence on the lives of many people. As one virtual choir member said, “Music helps me to ... forget my problems. With music, I become someone else.”
The virtual choir was the idea of award - winning composer and conductor Eric Whitacre. Born in the USA on 2 January 1970, Whitacre began studying music at the University of Nevada in 1988. He fell in love with Mozart’s classical music when he sang for the university choir. Moved by this music, he said, “It was like seeing color for the first time.” He graduated from university in 1995, and then received a master’s degree in musical composition from the Juilliard School in New York in 1997. Over the next 10 years, Whitacre’s original compositions began to become quite popular among choirs and singers. This led to the creation of the virtual choir.
In 2009, Whitacre received a video of a girl who was singing one of his works. Inspired, he asked his fans to make videos, which he then joined together into one performance. His first virtual choir, “Lux Aurumque”, had 185 singers from 12 different countries. It has received millions of views on the Internet. Since then, the virtual choir has become a worldwide phenomenon. Whitacre’s next effort was the Virtual Youth Choir for UNICEF, which was first seen on stage on 23 July 2014 in the UK. Altogether, 2,292 young people from 80 countries joined in to sing Whitacre’s song “What If”.
The virtual choir is a wonderful way for people around the world to sing with one voice and thus make the world a better place.
28. What do you need to take part in a virtual choir?
A. A studio and an Internet connection.
B. A video camera and a studio.
C. Just a studio.
D. A video camera and an Internet connection.
29. What inspired Eric Whitacre to creat the first virtual choir?
A. A video of a girl singing his work.
B. His love for Mozart’s music.
C. His graduation from university.
D. His master’s degree in musical composition.
30. How many singers were there in Eric Whitacre’s first virtual choir “Lux Aurumque”?
A. 12.
B. 185
C. 2292.
D. 80.
31. What is the main idea of the passage?
A. To introduce Eric Whitacre’s musical career.
B. To explain how to reward a video for a virtual choir.
C. To tell the story of the creation and development of the virtual choir.
D. To encourage people to join local choirs.

WHY DO WE CELEBRATE FESTIVALS?
Festivals are celebrated all around the world. They have a wide range of origins, such as the seasons of the year, religions, famous figures, and important events. Every festival has its different customs and unique charms. However, no matter how different they may seem, all over the world, the spirit of sharing joy, gratitude, love, or peace is common in all festivals.
Of all the traditional festivals, the harvest festival can be found in almost every culture. This important agricultural festival takes place after all the crops have been gathered in. People celebrate to show that they are grateful for the year’s supply of food. In ancient Egypt, the harvest festival was celebrated during the springtime — the Egyptian harvest season. It featured a parade and a great feast with music, dancing, and sports. Today, in some European countries, people decorate churches and town halls with flowers and fruit, and get together to celebrate over a meal. During the Mid-Autumn Festival in China, families gather to admire the shining moon and enjoy delicious mooncakes.
Customs play a significant role in festivals, but sometimes they can change over time. With the development of modern society and the spread of new ideas, some traditions may fade away and others may be established. One example is the typical Chinese Spring Festival custom of lighting firecrackers to drive away the evil spirits and celebrate the new year. Nowadays, many big cities have given up this custom in order to avoid air pollution. Another example is Halloween, which slowly became an exciting festival for children, in spite of its religious origins.
Festivals are becoming more and more commercial, with businesses taking advantage of the celebrations. Online shopping websites and social media apps have made it much easier for the public to spend more on gifts for their loved ones. Although some believe festivals should not be commercialised, others believe the increase in spending is good for the economy and public happiness.
Festivals are an important part of society. They reflect people’s wishes, beliefs, faiths, and attitudes towards life. They are occasions that allow us to relax and enjoy life, and forget about our work for a little while. They help us understand where we came from, who we are, and what to appreciate. And if you study festivals carefully, you may be surprised to find that different cultures actually have a lot in common after all.
32. What do all festivals around the world have in common?
A. They all originated from religions.
B. Their celebration ways are exactly the same.
C. The spirit of sharing joy, gratitude, love, or peace.
D. They are all related to agricultural harvests.
33. Why do people celebrate the harvest festival?
A. To show their sadness for the end of the harvest.
B. To show their gratitude for the year’s supply of food.
C. To drive away evil spirits.
D. To compete with each other in sports.
34. What has happened to some festival traditions according to the text?
A. Some traditions fade away and others are established.
B. They have remained completely unchanged.
C. They have all become more religious.
D. They have all become more popular.
35. Why have many big cities in China given up the Spring Festival custom of lighting firecrackers?
A. Because it is too expensive.
B. Because it is not fun anymore.
C. To follow foreign traditions.
D. To avoid air pollution.
【答案】32. C 33. B 34. A 35. D

Today I thought I’d blog about a question that has been asked many times — how do you stay safe online and avoid bad experiences on the Internet? I’m not an expert, but many years as a blogger have taught me a thing or two.
First of all, there’s the golden rule of the Internet: If you see or read something that makes you feel uncomfortable, leave the site immediately. Don’t post comments or click on anything. Second, protect your privacy. Don’t give out your address or phone number. Someone might use the information to steal your identity. Identity theft is a common and serious problem. Third, be polite. Being online is no excuse for being rude, and you don’t want to become a target for a troll or cyberbully. A troll is a person who posts comments or questions in order to stir up trouble online. Trolls often use several false names so that they can stay on a site. A cyberbully uses the Internet to be mean to others. Like a troll, a cyberbully will also write something mean but it is usually directed at particular people. He or she may also post embarrassing photos and information about those people. However, the more polite you are, the less likely it is you will be attacked.
Have you had any bad experiences online, or do you have some good advice for staying safe? Post your comments below!
Boy579: Last year, we were having problems in our chat room. Mean comments were being posted by someone we didn’t know. I think he or she was only trying to make trouble.
Amy: A girl at my school had a very bad experience online. A photo of her had been posted online and she was being made fun of. It seemed like a joke at first, but the girl was very upset.
21. What is the golden rule of the Internet according to the passage?
A. Never post comments online.
B. Click on everything you are interested in.
C. Leave the site immediately, if something makes you uncomfortable.
D. Share your address and phone number with friends.
22. Why should you protect your privacy online?
A. Because it is not important.
B. Because someone might use the information to steal your identity.
C. Because it is fun to share person information.
D. Because everyone does it.
23. What is a cyberbully?
A. A person who posts comments to make others laugh.
B. A person who uses the Internet to be kind to others.
C. A person who uses the Internet to be mean to particular person.
D. A person who only uses their real name online.

Ireland’s beautiful countryside has always had a great influence on its people and traditions. The country has a long history of producing great writers and poets. Its beautiful countryside excites and inspires all, offering something for each of the senses. The peaceful landscape of the “Emerald Isle” and its many green counties is a true feast for the eyes, with its rolling green hills dotted with sheep and cattle.

THE VIRTUAL CHOIR
Imagine having the opportunity to sing together with hundreds of other people while you are at home alone. You can do this in a virtual choir. Virtual choir members record themselves while they perform alone on video. These videos are uploaded onto the Internet, and then they are put together into one video that you can see online—a virtual choir. Anyone can take part in a virtual choir from anywhere—all you need is a video camera and an Internet connection. You do not even need a studio. A virtual choir helps connect ordinary people together. Many people do not have close friends or contacts who have the same interest in music. Many others do not have the chance to join a local choir. A virtual choir enables them to add their voices to those of other individuals and become part of the global community. It has proved to be a positive influence on the lives of many people. As one virtual choir member said, “Music helps me to ... forget my problems. With music, I become someone else.”
The virtual choir was the idea of award - winning composer and conductor Eric Whitacre. Born in the USA on 2 January 1970, Whitacre began studying music at the University of Nevada in 1988. He fell in love with Mozart’s classical music when he sang for the university choir. Moved by this music, he said, “It was like seeing color for the first time.” He graduated from university in 1995, and then received a master’s degree in musical composition from the Juilliard School in New York in 1997. Over the next 10 years, Whitacre’s original compositions began to become quite popular among choirs and singers. This led to the creation of the virtual choir.
In 2009, Whitacre received a video of a girl who was singing one of his works. Inspired, he asked his fans to make videos, which he then joined together into one performance. His first virtual choir, “Lux Aurumque”, had 185 singers from 12 different countries. It has received millions of views on the Internet. Since then, the virtual choir has become a worldwide phenomenon. Whitacre’s next effort was the Virtual Youth Choir for UNICEF, which was first seen on stage on 23 July 2014 in the UK. Altogether, 2,292 young people from 80 countries joined in to sing Whitacre’s song “What If”.
The virtual choir is a wonderful way for people around the world to sing with one voice and thus make the world a better place.
28. What do you need to take part in a virtual choir?
A. A studio and an Internet connection.
B. A video camera and a studio.
C. Just a studio.
D. A video camera and an Internet connection.
29. What inspired Eric Whitacre to creat the first virtual choir?
A. A video of a girl singing his work.
B. His love for Mozart’s music.
C. His graduation from university.
D. His master’s degree in musical composition.
30. How many singers were there in Eric Whitacre’s first virtual choir “Lux Aurumque”?
A. 12.
B. 185
C. 2292.
D 80.
31. What is the main idea of the passage?
A. To introduce Eric Whitacre’s musical career.
B. To explain how to reward a video for a virtual choir.
C. To tell the story of the creation and development of the virtual choir.
D. To encourage people to join local choirs.

WHY DO WE CELEBRATE FESTIVALS?
Festivals are celebrated all around the world. They have a wide range of origins, such as the seasons of the year, religions, famous figures, and important events. Every festival has its different customs and unique charms. However, no matter how different they may seem, all over the world, the spirit of sharing joy, gratitude, love, or peace is common in all festivals.
Of all the traditional festivals, the harvest festival can be found in almost every culture. This important agricultural festival takes place after all the crops have been gathered in. People celebrate to show that they are grateful for the year’s supply of food. In ancient Egypt, the harvest festival was celebrated during the springtime — the Egyptian harvest season. It featured a parade and a great feast with music, dancing, and sports. Today, in some European countries, people decorate churches and town halls with flowers and fruit, and get together to celebrate over a meal. During the Mid-Autumn Festival in China, families gather to admire the shining moon and enjoy delicious mooncakes.
Customs play a significant role in festivals, but sometimes they can change over time. With the development of modern society and the spread of new ideas, some traditions may fade away and others may be established. One example is the typical Chinese Spring Festival custom of lighting firecrackers to drive away the evil spirits and celebrate the new year. Nowadays, many big cities have given up this custom in order to avoid air pollution. Another example is Halloween, which slowly became an exciting festival for children, in spite of its religious origins.
Festivals are becoming more and more commercial, with businesses taking advantage of the celebrations. Online shopping websites and social media apps have made it much easier for the public to spend more on gifts for their loved ones. Although some believe festivals should not be commercialised, others believe the increase in spending is good for the economy and public happiness.
Festivals are an important part of society. They reflect people’s wishes, beliefs, faiths, and attitudes towards life. They are occasions that allow us to relax and enjoy life, and forget about our work for a little while. They help us understand where we came from, who we are, and what to appreciate. And if you study festivals carefully, you may be surprised to find that different cultures actually have a lot in common after all.
32. What do all festivals around the world have in common?
A. They all originated from religions.
B. Their celebration ways are exactly the same.
C. The spirit of sharing joy, gratitude, love, or peace.
D. They are all related to agricultural harvests.
33. Why do people celebrate the harvest festival?
A. To show their sadness for the end of the harvest.
B. To show their gratitude for the year’s supply of food.
C. To drive away evil spirits.
D. To compete with each other in sports.
34. What has happened to some festival traditions according to the text?
A. Some traditions fade away and others are established.
B. They have remained completely unchanged.
C. They have all become more religious.
D They have all become more popular.
35. Why have many big cities in China given up the Spring Festival custom of lighting firecrackers?
A. Because it is too expensive.
B. Because it is not fun anymore.
C. To follow foreign traditions.
D. To avoid air pollution.
