Are you Looking for a museum off the beaten path? Try these places.
Bata Shoe Museum
The Bata Shoe Museum opened in 1995 on the premise(前提) that “footwear is a source of delight and reflection of human history”. The space was designed by Raymond Moriyama. Permanent collection includes 12000 pairs of shoes and artifacts. Notable shoes are those belonging to Marilyn Monroe, Princess Diana, Elton John and Madonna.
Campbell House
Campbell House was built in 1822 by Sir William Campbell – chief justice of Upper Canada from 1825-1829. Campbell lived in the house for 12 years before he died. The house was occupied by various other families and used for various other uses (vinegar factory, glassworks). In 1972 in order to preserve the building, the Advocate’s Society moved from its location on Adelaide St to its current home at Queensland University. The building was restored to be as historically accurate as possible.
Gibson House Museum
The Gibson House Museum is an example of Georgian architecture. It was built in the mid 19th century as a farm house for David Gibson – a member of the Legislative Assembly. After being used as a boarding house for many years, the building interior was restored. The museum has a hands -on “discovery gallery” with interactive（互动的） games and exhibits. On weekends workshops are offered on cooking, desserts, breads and preserves.
Black Creek Pioneer Village
Black Creek is a recreation of a Victorian Farm with buildings moved and reconstructed from around Ontario. The result is a 1860s Ontario village. Exhibits demonstrate how domestic tasks were completed before modern technology. Activities include spinning, baking, and a history lesson.
Historical interpreters dress in the clothing of the period and answer visitors’ questions. Favorite destinations in the village include the farm, doctor’s house, and the mill. At the historic brewery, beer is brewed using all natural ingredients. The restaurant serves meals using locally sourced ingredients. On site are also areas for concerts and gift shop. Black Creek is operated by the Toronto and Region Conservation (TRCA).

22. Campbell House once served as a .
A. university B. glue works C. farm house D. vinegar factory
23. If you are into interacting with others in games, you will probably go to .

C. Gibson House Museum was constructed approximately in the 1820s.

B
My wife, daughter, and I moved into our home nine years ago and we spent a lot of time and energy in the yard to get it looking like it does today. We live on a corner, higher than street level, and the entire side of the yard is surrounded by a professionally built rock wall. The front of the house though is another story because instead of a wall along the sidewalk, the rocks appear to be just thrown up onto the dirt as if someone were in a hurry to finish.
We did the best we could with what we had to work with and called this area our “rock garden”. Whenever we had leftover flowers or plants, Denise or I would stick them out front, just to bring some color to the area. We would do all of the yard work on our own, even the tiring weed-pulling.
Last summer I had reached the end of the rock garden and found a tiny little plant that I could not immediately identify, I knew I didn’t plant it and Denise claimed that she didn’t either. We decided to let it continue growing until we could figure out what it was.
Weeks passed and as I made my way back to the mystery plant, it appeared to be a Sunflower with a tall skinny stalk(茎，杆) and only one head on it. I decided to baby it along and weed around it. As I pulled rocks from the area to get to the weeds, I noticed something unusual. The
Sunflower had not started where I saw the stalk begin. It actually had begun under a big rock and grown under and around it to reach the sun.
That’s when I realized that if a tiny little Sunflower didn’t let a big rock stand in its way of developing, we too have the ability of doing the same thing. Once our environment begins to see that we believe in ourselves like that little Sunflower, we can attain the same nourishment(营养) and growth as well.
Stand tall like the Sunflower and be proud of who and what you are and the environment will begin to support you. You will find a way to go under or around your big obstacle in order to reach your desires.
25. Why is the front of the house another story according to the author?
A. The workers finished it in a hurry.
B. There is a wall along the sidewalk.
C. The family view it as a rock garden.
D. The rocks are piled there at random.
26. The author found it unusual that_______.
A. the Sunflower grew under and around a big rock
B. the Sunflower had a tall stalk and only one head
C. the mystery plant turned out to be a Sunflower
D. a rock stood in the way of the flower’s growth
27 Which of the following best describes the Sunflower?
A. Brave and stubborn B. Confident and persistent
C. Optimistic and modest D. Mysterious and devoted
C
One of our expectations about education is that it will pay off in terms of upward mobility. Historically, the relation between education and income has been strong. But in the early 1970s, a contradiction developed between education and the economy. Our value of education and our average educational attainment（获得）run faster than the capacity of the economy to absorb the graduates.
Since the 1970s, high-school graduates have experienced a striking decrease in earnings, making them the first generation since World War Ⅱ to face a lower standard of living than their parents had. Experts have argued that this contradiction is at the heart of the problem of public education today. It is not, as business leaders claim, that the schools are failing to properly educate students, that they are turning out young people who are inadequately prepared to function in the workplace. The real problem is a shortage of economic opportunities for students who are not continuing on to college. College graduates also are having difficulty finding jobs. Even when they do, the jobs may not be consistent with their training and expectations. Part of the problem is that too many young Americans expect to have professional jobs, making disappointment and frustration unavoidable for some.
Many students assumed that what was true of an individual— that the higher the education, the better the job opportunities — would also be true for an entire society. But when the numbers of better-educated young people became too great, the economy could no longer absorb them. Another part of the problem is the assumption that greater educational attainment guarantees career advancement. In fact, employers do not routinely reward educational attainment; rather, they reward it only when they believe it will contribute to the employee’s productivity.
We should not overlook the fact that there is still a strong relationship between education and occupation and income. College graduates have a strong advantage over those with less education. But the payoff is neither as large nor as certain as it once was. Unfortunately, Americans have focused so strong on the economic payoff that many consider their college education useless if it does not create a desirable, well-paying job. Only in this sense can we speak of an “oversupply” of college graduates.
We could argue that all or at least the majority of Americans would profit by some degree because higher education can enable the individual to think more deeply, explore more widely, and enjoy a greater range of experiences.
28. The underlined phrase “turning out” in Paragraph.2 probably means .
A. bringing up B. putting out C. bringing out D. putting up
29. When do employers reward higher education?
A. It offers better job opportunities.
B. It makes for higher productivity.
C. It guarantees career advancement.
D. It brings a definite advantage over others.
30. The passage mainly talks about ________.
A. our expectations about education
B. the problem of public education today
C. the contradiction between education and economy
D. the connection between education and occupation
31. What’s the writer’s attitude towards higher education?
A. Objective B. Indifferent C. Disapproving D. Favorable
D
Ever since Donald Trump was elected the next president of the US, the entire Trump family has been put under a microscope.
In China, the spotlight has been mainly focused on Trump and his daughter Ivanka. She is described on WeChat as an extremely influential role model with stunning beauty, a successful career, and a happy family.
She leads a dream life that a million girls would kill for. Yes, she was born with a silver spoon in her mouth. But she got where she is by herself.
There’s always going to be articles that say people born into wealthy families are better looking and have a better family background than you, but these people do work harder than you.
Are you a loser if you were raised in an ordinary family? Should you feel guilty that you sleep eight hours a day because Ivanka sleeps five? If you just want to keep a stable nine-to-five job, does it mean you are not ambitious? How about if you don’t work out or eat healthy, does that mean you will not find your Mr. or Miss Right?
There is a tendency in media nowadays to encourage elitism(精英主义).They are trying to brainwash young people into thinking that they should invest an enormous amount of time and money in bodybuilding and appearance enhancement, even plastic surgery. They encourage lifestyle makeovers: wine tasting classes and expensive trips overseas. They make you believe that if you do as they say, you can improve the quality of your life and join the elites (社会精英).
But what’s the downside of being ordinary? Do you really need to go to the gym five days a week unless you are a gym maniac(热衷者)? Do you need to take hundreds of selfies and Photoshop the selected ones to post on WeChat? Do you really need to break your neck and sacrifice to earn your first pot of gold only to worry constantly about how to enter high society later?
Don’t let the idea of elitism get to you. Everybody has a right to the life they want. Human beings should not be judged as a success or failure based on whether they are a part of the elite or not. As long as you lead a happy and comfortable life, why bother to chase after other people’s shadows? Choose your own life path and go for it.
32. Why does Ivanka become a hit online?
A. She lives such a dream life that a million girls would like to kill her.
B. She together with her family is put under careful investigation.
C. She is a virtual role model frequently seen among ordinary people.
D. She gets what she has through personal efforts despite decent origin.
33. Which of the following are considered as a life belonging to people of higher social rank?
①Polish and post carefully- selected selfies on WeChat;
②Break your neck to earn your first pot of gold;
③Spare no expense to improve physical appearance;
④Sign up for wine tasting classes and oversea trips;
A. ①④ B. ②④ C.②③ D. ③④
34. It can be inferred from the text that ____________.
A. Ivanka sleeping five hours a day makes the vast majority guilty.
B. Keeping a stable nine-to- five job will be thought of as a loser.
C. Being distinguished is a commonly advocated culture nowadays.
D. Improving the quality of life will promote one’s social status.
35. Which attitude towards life would the writer probably agree with?
A. Life is like a dogsled team. If you aren’t the lead dog, the scenery never changes.
B. There is only one success — to be able to spend your life in your own way.
C. Life consists not in holding good cards but in playing those you hold well.
D. The greatest lesson in life is to know that even fools are right sometimes.

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。
Your house may have an effect on your figure. Experts say the way you design your home could play a role in whether you gain or lose weight. 36 Here are some ways to turn your home into part of diet plan.
37 Dark environments are more likely to encourage overeating, for when people are in poorly-lit places, they are more likely to eat lots of food. If your home doesn’t have enough window light, get more lamps and flood the place with brightness.
38 Research suggests warm colors fuel our appetites. In one study, people who ate meals in a blue room consumed 33 percent less than those in a yellow or red room. 39 However, cold colors make us feel less hungry. So when it’s time to repaint, go blue.
40 People who eat slowly tend to consume about 70 fewer calories per meal than those who rush through their meals. Begin keeping track of the time, and try to make dinner last at least 30 minutes, and while you’re at it, actually sit down to eat.
A. Mind the colors of your room.
B. You will enjoy your home environment.
C. Don’t forget the clock.
D. Open the curtains and turn up the lights.
E. Listen to some light music.
F. Warm colors like yellow make food appear more delicious.
G. You can make your environment work for you.

As it is reported in today’s 21st Century, a pedestrian was walked down a street when someone dropped litter from a building nearby. Knocked unconscious, the person was sent to a nearest hospital immediately.
The horrible report has set me thinking. Admittedly, we have the right do whatever we want. Besides, violating others’ rights is unacceptable. Dropping litter from a high place is impolite and dangerous, that presents a potential threat to many people. If this behavior continue, everyone is likely to suffer from it.
I think the person throwing litter randomly deserves a severe punish. All of us should devote ourselves to improve our own behavior. Most importantly, laws concerning should be introduced by the authorities. With our joint efforts, our society will surely become good. And I sincerely hope such cases won’t happen any more.

Dear Tom，
How time flies! It has been almost a year since your last visit.
Last Sunday, I paid a visit to one of the scenic spots in my hometown. The moment I reached the gate, I was puzzled by a sign, which reads “import”. “What does it mean?” I asked myself. It suddenly dawned on me that it referred to “Entrance”. I had a good laugh over it. When I came to the exit, I was shocked by another word “Export”. It was then that I felt obliged to do something about it.
Given the fact that you are expert in English, I sincerely invite you to my hometown during the summer vacation. I’m firmly convinced that you are more than delighted to do your part in promoting the standard English. Let’s make joint efforts to correct the shabby English, and undoubtedly it must be fun and meaningful.
Looking forward to your reply.
Yours,
Li Hua
详解：
A篇：21---24：CDBD
主旨大意：本文为应用文。文章向我们介绍了多伦多的巴塔鞋博物馆，坎贝尔之家，吉布森老宅博物馆以及黑溪先锋村，让我们了解了每个博物馆的特色。
21.C [解析] 根据文章中的“The space was designed by Raymond Moriyama.”可知答案选C
22. D[解析] 文章中提到“The house was occupied by various other families and used for various other uses (vinegar factory, glassworks).”因此答案选D
23. B[解析]在介绍Gibson House Museum 时，文章有原句“ The museum has a hands -on “discovery gallery” with interactive games and exhibits.”
24.D[解析] 在介绍Black Creek Pioneer Village 时，Exhibits demonstrate how domestic
tasks were completed before modern technology. Activities include spinning, baking, and a history lesson. Historical interpreters dress in the clothing of the period and answer visitors’ questions.可知D为正确选项而A,B,C都与原文细节有出入。
B 篇：25---27:DAB
主旨大意：本文为记叙文。一块大石头挡住了一株向日葵成长的路，它却顽强的存活，美丽的绽放。作者通过对这样一个故事的描述，旨在告诉我们，一旦周遭的环境开始看到，我们像那棵小小的向日葵一样相信自己，我们亦能够得到同样的养分并且成长起来。
25. D[解析] 由第一段最后一句可知，房子的前边是另一码事——因为沿人行道修建的不是一面墙，而是在泥地上草草垒起来的石头堆。
26. A[解析] 由第四段最后一句可知，向日葵并不是从我发现茎杆的地方开始生长的。它从一块大石头下面开始发芽、生长，然后绕过石头，以获取阳光。
27. B[解析] 由最后两段可知，正因为相信自己，且不惧挫折，坚持不懈，向日葵才能顽强地生存下来。
C篇：28---31：ABCD
主旨大意：本文是一篇说明文，讲述了教育与收入的关系，教育与经济之间产生的矛盾。通过各种研究说明了这个矛盾背后的一些原因。最后作者阐明了自己对是否应该接受大学教育发表了自己的见解。
28.A 猜测词意。根据第二段划线部分前后“it is not, as business leaders claim, that the school are failing to properly ……”正如商业领导人说的，不是学校没有恰当地教育好学生，也不是学校培养的年轻人还没有为将来的工作做好准备……Bring up “培养、抚养”，put out“生产、扑灭”，bring out“使…显现”，put up“举起、张贴”，因此选A。
29.B 细节题。根据第三段中“In fact, employers do not routinely reward educational attainment; rather, they reward it only when they believe it will contribute to the employee’s productivity.
”可知B项正确。
30.C 主旨归纳题。由第一自然段可知，全文主要写的是教育和经济之间的矛盾，后面主要是阐述它存在的现象以及背后的原因。其他三个选项都不能概括全文主旨大意
31.D观点判断。根据最后一自然段信息“……Americans would profit by some degree…… enable the individual to think more deeply, explore more widely, and enjoy a greater range of experiences.”可知，作者支持学生接受高等教育。A选项“客观的”，B选项“漠不关心的”，C选项“不赞成的”。
D篇：32---35 DDCB
主旨大意：本文由美国新当选总统Trump的女儿Ivanka的“完美人生”引发思考——成为“精英”、过“精英生活”是否适合每个人。
32. D[解析]原文中提到 “she was born with a silver spoon in her mouth. But she got where she is by herself.”
33. D[解析]文中第6段提到现在媒体鼓吹“elitism精英主义”，并试图让年轻人相信“join the elites”的方式就是“invest an enormous amount of time and money in bodybuilding and appearance enhancement, even plastic surgery” 以及“wine tasting classes and expensive trips overseas”。
34. C[解析]第6段第一句话“There is a tendency in media nowadays to encourage elitism.”

W: The school cafeteria is in the center of the school and serves as a popular meeting place for students and teachers alike. Although it is a pleasant place to sit and eat, it does have some points that could be improved upon. The first is the menu. It has a limited number of dishes, and the daily
specials are the same each week. There is little variety and there are no specific vegetarian meals. In addition, there is no healthy food, such as salads or fish on the menu. There is a lot of fried food, too. Many of the meals also contain frozen food rather than fresh food and in general there needs to be more choice of both vegetarian and healthier meals. There is a limited choice of drinks, too. Another thing that students often complain about is the amount charged for the meals. Some of the dishes are the same price as those found outside the school and a majority of students don’t eat there for this reason. If the prices were more reasonable, more students would eat there and the cafeteria would make a bigger profit. Finally, the cafeteria is spacious, so on no occasion does anyone have to wait for a seat. The cafeteria is clean, as is the kitchen, and the staff are very pleasant and helpful, so in most respects the cafeteria meets the needs of the students. With a few minor changes, such as the menu changed and the prices reduced, it would be more perfect.
