As the saying goes, “Without music, life would be a mistake.” Music is very important in our lives and here are four of the greatest musicians in history.
Ludwig van Beethoven(1770-1827)
Born in Bonn, Germany, Beethoven never held an official position in Vienna. He supported himself by giving concerts, teaching piano, and the sale of his compositions(作曲). The last 30 years of Beethoven’s life were filled with a lot of hard times, the first of which was his deafness. Beethoven’s music greatly influenced the next generation of musicians.
Johann Sebastian Bach(1685-1750)
Bach, “the father of modern music”, was born in Eisenach, Germany. His parents died when he was nine years old, and in 1695 he went to live with his brother Johann Christoph, who was an organist(风琴手) in Ohrdruf. He stayed there until 1700. Seven years later, he moved back to Weimar, where he served as court(宫廷) organist for nine years. His music greatly influenced classical music.
Frederic Chopin (1810-1849)
Chopin was born in Zelazowa Wola, Poland. He showed a talent for the piano at a very young age. Chopin began composing when he was still a child, but some of his early works have been lost. He gave his first public concert in 1818. Chopin was considered as the leading musician of his time.
Franz Schubert(1797-1828)
Schubert was born and died in Vienna. Unlike most of his predecessors(前辈),Schubert was not a great performer. He never had much money but he was very productive. He wrote his first masterpiece when he was only sixteen. However, he died young, before his talents had even been known.
21. Beethoven did Not make a living by ___.

After twenty-third hour at night, the house was quiet. I didn’t go to bed. Under the strong light, I looked sadly before me at a huge pile of that troublesome thing they call “books”.
I would have my important examination the next day. “When can I go to bed?” I asked myself. I didn’t answer, in fact I dared not.
As soon as the clock struck twelve, I suddenly heard and couldn’t help crying “Oh, dear! Many more books to read before I can go to bed!” We students are the most wretched creatures in the world. Dad does not agree with me on this. He didn’t have to work so hard when he was a boy.
When the clock struck one, I felt I was hopeless now. I forgot all I had learned. I was too tired to go on. I did the only thing I could. I prayed, “Oh, God, please help me pass the exam tomorrow. I do promise to work hard afterwards, Amen.” My eyes were so heavy that I could hardly open them a few minutes later, with my head on the desk, I fell asleep.
25. When the author was going over his lessons, all the others in the house were__.
A. asleep B. outside C. working in bed D. quietly laughing at him
26. The underlined word “wretched” means _______.
A. energetic B. disappointed C. unhappy D. hopeful
27. What do you suppose happened to the author?
A. He went to a church to pray again.
B. He passed the exam by sheer luck.
C. He failed in the exam.

28. The best title for the passage would be ___.

C
The Thanksgiving Day ,the fourth Thursday in November, is coming in America. But do you know something about the annual(每年的)Macy’s Thanksgiving Parade(游行) in New York?
There are thousands of bystanders(看热闹的人)and millions of television viewers. The Parade is as traditional as turkey. The year 2016 was the 90th year of Macy’s parade. It featured 15 huge balloons in the shape of cartoon and pop culture characters, 1,200 dancers and cheerleaders, 900 clowns(小丑),10 marching bands and nearly 9,000 workers, almost all of whom were volunteers.
The floats(彩车)and balloons have been getting larger ,more colorful and more surprising since Macy’s immigrant (移民的) workers organized the first Thanksgiving Day Parade.
In 2016, school children were invited to the Macy’s parade studios(画室) outside New York City, for a first look at several just completed floats.
Bella was excited to be there. “I think it’s great because I get to see all of these floats before anyone else does in the parade,” said Bella.
John Piper is the president of Macy’s Studio. He said his work was fun all the time. “It’s a lot of work. All year long, the artists at Macy’s Studio all build these floats. We create them from scratch(涂抹). I have the finest carpenters(木匠), metal workers, painters all cooperating(合作) together,” said Piper.
The floats were supposed to advertise for commercial sponsors(赞助商) for the start of the Christmas season. But Amy Kule, the event producer said, “ And the floats are used to keep the beauty and the majesty(庄严)of the parade. A Thanksgiving parade is always about giving back and entertaining(娱乐). But most importantly, it’s about leaving it for the next generation.”
29. .What can be inferred from the first paragraph?
A. Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade is a custom held each year.
B. The way of celebrating Thanksgiving Day isn’t changed each year.
C. There must be turkeys in Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade
D.Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade is as important as turkey.
30. Which of the following statements is Not true according to John Piper?
A. It isn’t boring to create these floats.
B. All the workers at Macy’s Studio work on the floats separately.
C. The artists build the floats one year before the parade.
D. It needs lots of work to build these floats.
31. Which part of a website is the passage possibly taken from?
A. travel B. culture C. literature D. art
D
How many times a day do you check your WeChat(微信) or QQ? When you wake up? Before bed? A dozen times in between? The technology which was supposed to make our lives simple has taken up too much time. The young people spends more than seven hours a day using technological devices(设备), with an extra hour just text-messaging friends.
The advantage of technological devices is connection: we are in touch with more people during more hours of the day than at any other time in history. But is it possible that we’re lonelier than ever? That’s what professor Sherry Turkle observes(观察)in her new book, Alone Together, which clearly describes our changing relationship with technology.
For Turkle, technology isn’t offering us the lives we want to live. “We’re texting people at a distance,” says Turkle, “We’re using lifeless objects(物体) to convince(使确信) ourselves that even when we’re alone, we feel together. And then when we’re with each other, we put ourselves in situations where we are alone---always on our mobile
devices. I call it a storm of confusion(困惑) about what’s important in our human connections. That’s my biggest worry.”
Besides, communicating online is not equal to face-to-face communication. Online, you can ignore(忽视) others’ feelings. In a text message, you can avoid eye contact(目光接触). A number of studies have found that this generation of young people is less sympathetic(有同情心的)than ever. “That doesn’t lead to disaster,” says Turkle, “but the disadvantages still cannot be ignored.”
32. What is Sherry Turkle’s biggest worry?
A. Technology may make human connections confusing
B. Technology can’t help people remove loneliness
C. Technology may make people’s lives hard
D. Technology keeps people together
33. What is the author’s attitude to the influence of technology on people’s life?
A. Positive B. Negative C. Hopeless D. Uncertain
34. What is the passage mainly about?
A. Technology brings many conveniences to people’s lives
B. Young men spend too much time on technological devices
C. Technology also brings people some disadvantages
D. Sherry Turkle observes people’s changing relationship with technology
35. What’s the main purpose of the passage?
A. To instruct people how to do with messages.
B. To stress the importance of technology.
C. To get us to consider what’s important in human connections.
D. To promote(推动)a wider use of technological devices.

Dear Mary,
How time flies! I have been in high school for two months. Now I’m writing to tell you something about it.
I felt a little lonely at the beginning ,which made me miss all the teachers and classmates in Junior High school. But now, I have got used to my new school life. Not only do I get along well with my new classmates but I have made many new friends. Besides, the teachers here are strict with us so that I like and respect them very much. In a word, I’ll make good use of my time and make an effort to study well, because it is my dream to go to a good university after three years’ hard work.
Looking forward to your early reply.
Best wishes
Yours
Lihua
