The design team employed 3 D modeling to copy the original clothes and accessories ( of the virtual actress."To make her true to life,we went to great effort to reproduce her gestures and decorations with the real voice of the opera performer,"said Zhang Xi,a team member. Qingiang Opera,a Chinese folk opera originating in the Western Zhou Dynasty (1046 BC-771 BC),continues to thrive in a vast region of Northwest China and was added to the country's intangible cultural heritage list in 2006. As a newcomer to this ancient art,Qin Xiaoya demonstrates a youthful image.In a music video for the Ninth China Qingiang Opera Arts Festival held in June,she performed Qinqiang Opera remixed with rock'n'roll,fueling the interest of young people. "Though creating such a figure is not easy,we made the expression of this character accurate and vivid,by using high standard technological methods"Zhang said. "We hope to make her a spokesperson for Qingiang Opera art and make related cartoons, raovies and other diversified products in the future,"said Zhang,adding that they are developing more functions for the virtual figure,who is expected to interact with citizens via livestreaming. The technology that is applied into the opera can also be found among cinematic techniques. Tapping her fingers to the rhythm of the music and singing along with actors,Xiao Jie,a 59-year-old opera fan,enjoys a 3 D Qinqiang Opera film Three Drops of Blood.Regarded as a masterpiece in Qingiang Opera,Three Drops of Blood,created in 1918 and deeply critical of pedantic bureaucrats(迂腐的官僚主义)in feudal society,has been often frequented by fans over the past century. "I watched a black-and-white film of the opera when I was young.At this time,watching it in a 3 D form is truly intriguing.The 3 D film make the centuries-old art take on a new look--we can have a closer and clearer look at the performance,"said Xiao. Chinese operas have long historical ties to movies,for example,the first movie in China,The Battle of Dingjunshan,screened in 1905,was adapted from clips from Peking Opera. 51.The author mentions Qin Xiaoya at the beginning of the passage to introduce A.a new real performer of Qingiang Opera B.the application of technology in the art of Qinqiang Opera. C.the origin of Qinqiang Opera. D.the relationship between Qinqiang Opera and movies 52.Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage? A.Qin Xiaoya is a figure from Western Zhou Dynasty. B.Qinqiang Opera originates in the Eastern Zhou Dynasty. C Qin Xiaoya's performance in June combined Oin Opera with rock music. D.Qin Xiaoya shows the image of a middle-aged person. 53.What does the underlined word"diversified"in Paragraph 6 mean? A.various. B.appealing. C.elegant. D.tasteless. 54.What can be inferred from Xiao Jie? A.He finds the rhythm of the film hard to follow. B.He thinks the theme of the passage should be critical. C.He is totally intrigued by the 3 D film. D.He suggests audience to appear in 3 D cinema frequently. 55.What is the main idea of the passage? A.Technology elements in Qinqiang opera are welcomed by senior fans. L.Qingiang opera is adapted from Peking Opera. C.Qingiang opera is a bond between the old and the young D.Technology makes Qinqiang opera show a new look. B People who have got rhythm might have an advantage when it comes to language and reading skills.A new study shows the brains of people who can move to a musical beat react to speech on a more consistent basis than those who can't.Researchers also find that musical training can sharpen the brain's response to language. The researchers say their discovery provides the first biological link between the ability to keep a beat and how the brain responds to speech,something that can have important value for reading skills.To gather materials for their research,the team got more than 100 teenagers who lived in Chicago,Illinois.The teens were given two tests.First,they were instructed to listen to and tap their fingers along to the beat.The researchers calculated low accurately their young volunteers were able to tap along to the musical timekeeper.Second,the teen subjects were linked to an EEG device,which.measures electrical activity in the brain.The EEG device was focused on an area of the brain that not only processes sound,but is also connected to parts of the brain responsible for motor-movement.The researchers recorded the brainwaves as their teen subjects listened to the synthesized speech sound,which was repeated irregularly for half an hour.The researchers were able to find out how the nerve cells in that particular region of the brain responded every time the synthesized sound was played."Across this population of adolescents, the more accurate they were at tapping along to the beat,the more consistent their brains' response to the letter unit was,"said Nina Kraus. While past studies have showed the links between reading skills and a person's ability to keep a beat,the researchers said their new findings show the hearing system is what provides a common basis for those links."Rhythm is naturally a part of music and language."Nina said. 56.According to the first paragraph,what can get the brain's reaction to language more effectively? A.Rhythm. B.Reading skills. C.Language. D.Musical training. 57.What can we lean about "the first biological link"mentioned in Paragraph 2? A.It shows how the brain works. B.It is very important for reading ability. C.It shows how the brain reacts:to speech. D.It is helpful to researchers'findings. 58.The underlined word“subjects”in Paragraph2 probably means“ “ A.persons or animals that are studied in an experiment or a research B.areas of knowledge studied in a school,college,and so on C things that are being discussed in a conversation or a book D.persons or things that are the main features of works of art 59.It can be inferred from the last paragraph that A.reading skills may make language learners keep a beat B.the hearing system may be useless while a person is learning to read C.the hearing system may separate sound from meaning while a person is reading D.the hearing system may be used while a person is.reading or taking musical training 60.What can we conclude from this passage? A.Moving to a musical beat is more popular. B.Experts are expanding their studies on rhythm. C.Rhythm might help us improve our reading skills. D.Experts find the links between the hearing system and reading. C It's good to be smart.After all,intelligent people earn more money,accumulate more wealth, and even live longer.But there's another side to the story.The brightest people and strongest leaders sometimes make.errors others don't,especially in situations that require common sense. Travis Bradberry,president at Talent Smart,explained in his post Why Smart People Act So Stupid that"Rational thinking and intelligence don't tend to go hand in hand.Intelligent people are more prone to silly mistakes because of blind spots in how they use logic.These blind spots exist because smart people tend to be overconfident in their reasoning abilities."They are so used to being right and having quick answers that they don't even realize when they're making a mess by answering without thinking things through. A lifetime of praise leads smart people to develop too much faith in their intelligence and abilities.They often fail to recognize when they need help,and when they do recognize it,they tend to believe that no one else is capable of providing it. "It's hard for anyone to graciously accept the fact that they're wrong.It's even harder for smart people because they grow so used to being right all the time that it becomes a part of their identity,"Bradberry wrote."For smart people,being wrong can feel like a personal attack,and being right,a necessity." Smart people also.have a hard time accepting feedback.They tend to undervalue the opinions of others,which means they have trouble believing that anyone is qualified to give them useful feedback.Not only does this tendency hinder their growth and performance,it can lead to harmful relationships,both personally and professionally. Smart people develop overachieving personalities because things come so easily to them. They simply don't understand how hard some people have to work to accomplish-the same things, and because of that,they push people too hard.They set the bar too high,and when people take too long or don't get things quite right,they assume it's due to a lack of effort.So they push even harder. 61.What do we learn from the passage about the brightest people? A.They can make silly mistakes in straightforward situations. B.They usually turn a blind eye to their own weaknesses. C.They are admired by people around them. D.They can differ in their personalities. 62.What accounts for the existence of intelligent people's logical blind spots? A.Their irrational way of thinking. B.Too much faith in their ability to think C.Their ignorance of behavioral science. D.Too much concern about their work. 63.How do smart people react when they are found to be wrong? A.They shift the blame to others. B They graciously accept the facts. C.They may feel shocked. D.They may get offended. 64.What may happen to smart people who find it difficult to accept suggestions? A.They may suffer in their professional and private life. B.They may lose faith in their administrative abilities. C.They may commit more errors than ever before. D.They may experience a lot of emotional stress. 65.What is said about those working with or under overachieving people? A.They put a lot of effort into their work B.They set higher goals for themselves. C.They are under increasing pressure. D.They take less time to get things done. 第Ⅱ卷非选择题（共35分） 第Ⅱ卷非选择题 第四部分：（共三节，满分40分） 第一节词汇填空。根据所给提示补全句子，使句意完整。（共20小题：每小题05分， 满分10分) 66.Today,as we learn more about sharks,more people than ever want to protect them from （灭绝，灭种) 67.She appeared in The Cove,a documentary aiming at h (使突出，使注意力集 中于)the cruelty of dolphin hunting. 68.She is a model and performance artist d (致力，献身，倾注)to ocean conservation. 69.With me today is Ling Feng,a s (员工)member working here.. 70.Reduce waste by choosing environmentally friendly products--get a r (可再度使用 的，可重复使用的)water bottle for example. 71.Our job is to protect and r （使恢复)the natural environment. 72.This includes keeping the original environment untouched,as well as adopting new, (可持续的，不破坏环境的)ways of feeding animals. 73.Smog can be dangerous because it cause severe breathing problems and i (感染， 传染病) 74.A polite interruption is usually framed as a request for p (允许，许可)to interrupt someone. 75.We are c (担忧的，焦急的)that many people in poor area do not have enough food to eat. 76.Well,SNNR was e (建立，设立)n2000. 77.SNNR is the highest and second largest nature r_ (保护区)in China.. 78.As a matter of fact,sharks don't t (把..作为目标)humans. 79.But I have to say that it's partly your f （责任，过错)isn'tt? 80.You need to work together,and that means communicating with each other clearly and (解决)conflicts. 81.Again,your s (计谋，策略，行动计划)is clear communication,. 82.I was just letting offs (发泄怒火)really,because I was so angry, 83.E (尴尬的，难为情的)and ashamed,Ican't concentrate on anything. 84.Complete the b (小册子)with the expressions in activity above. 85.Look at the three items that c (促成，造成某事发生)to a carbon footprint. any more you can think of. 第二节阅读表达（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分） Once a father and son went to the kite flying festival:The young son became very h seeing the sky filled with colorful kites.He too asked his father to get him a kite and a thread a roller so he can fly a kite too.So,the father went to the shop at the park where the festival being held.He purchased kites and a roll of thread for his son.
