A painting of a famous artist could cost several million dollars in the market. This
is why many artworks —even those that are housed inside highly guarded
museums—go missing. Here is a list of some of the most famous paintings that were
lost, stolen or destroyed.
Vincent Van Gogh's Poppy Flowers
This artwork was housed at the Mohammed Mahmoud Khalil Museum in Cairo. It
was first lost in 1977, but was recovered 10 years after. The second time this same
Vincent Van Gogh painting was stolen was in August of 2010. The painting is
estimated (估价) to be worth something between $50 and $55 million.
Pablo Picasso's Le Pigeon Aux Petits
Stolen on May 20, 2010, this painting by Spanish painter Pablo Picasso is worth $28
million. It was stolen at the Museed' Art Moderne de la Ville de Paris, along with five
other artworks. However the thieves threw the painting away in a trashcan when they
were caught. But that container was emptied before the authorities got there. It was
feared that the painting was already destroyed.
Paul Cezanne's View of Auvers Sur Oise
Lost on December 31, 1990 this artwork that used to be on exhibition at the
Ashmolean Museum in Oxford was stolen the night before the city's Millennium
celebration. The thieves planned the robbery in time with the fireworks exhibition
during peak of the celebrations. This artwork is estimated to be worth $5 million.Govert Flinck's Landscape with an Obelisk
Stolen on March 8, 1990 this artwork was at the Isabella Steward Gardner Museum
in Boston.

B
Alone in his studio, while a radio plays classical music, master violinmaker Bob
Childs holds a flat piece of spruce (云杉木) in his hands and taps it with his finger. He
listens. Tap! Tap! Tap! He listens again. It will take him some 200 hours to create a
violin worthy of some of the greatest musicians in the world. But the wood must
sound right to him—must sing to him —from the very start. "You're listening for that
bell-like sound," Childs says. "A really good violin will sound good right from the
beginning."
After spending a lot of time with this piece of wood, he will create a living
instrument—one that will long outlive (比……活得久) any of its players. This
masterpiece will go to someone in the world-famous Boston Symphony Orchestra, or
New York Philharmonic, or perhaps a violinist in Germany or Scotland who's waited
on his list for at least a year to get it. Childs has made 140 violins in 38 years.In his tiny third-floor workshop in Cambridge, a city in Massachusetts, Childs sits
at a small desk surrounded by tools of varying shapes and sizes, with the smell of
freshly cut maple and spruce. Holding the beginnings of a violin that he will
eventually sell for about $18,000 up to a window flooded with light, he carefully
carves the wood.
It has taken years for Childs to develop his eye. He first started working in Maine
for a self-taught violinmaker. He then worked with some of the top craftsmen (工匠)
in the world before moving to Philadelphia; there he repaired the violins for
Philadelphia Orchestra musicians and started to create ones with distinctive sounds
and qualities. "I got to take apart really beautiful, old, famous violins from those
orchestra members," says Childs. "So I got to know Stradivarius violins, Guarneri
violins and Amati violins—all the great makers. I learned from the masters and was
able to create my own brand."
24.What is Childs doing in Paragraph 1?
A. Learning classical music.
B. Repairing a really good violin.
C. Selecting wood for a new violin.
D. Appreciating a great musician's violin.
25.What can we infer about Childs from Paragraph 2?
A. His violins are in high demand.
B. He makes violins very quickly.
C. His violins are sold at low prices.
D. He often plays in famous orchestras.
26.Where did Childs first begin to make violins in his own style?
A. In New York. B. In Philadelphia.
C. In a city in Maine. D. In a city in Massachusetts.
27.What is the purpose of the text?
A. To advertise some first-class violins.
B. To introduce a great American violinmaker.C. To describe the process of creating a violin.
D. To show the secret behind the success of Bob Childs.
C
Movies are a great means of entertainment for many. There are some advantages of
watching movies. Comedies, for example, help reduce your blood pressure. Laughter
for 15 minutes during a film makes your blood vessels (血管) wider. Besides, when
you watch a sad movie, you're more likely to come away from it thinking about loved
ones and feeling happy about what you have.
Watching movies can make you creative. A study shows that young children, who
watched the use of magic in Harry Potter, score significantly higher in a creative
thinking test than children who watched something else.
Moreover, movies are very useful for strengthening people's mental health. They
enable people to take time to really relax and temporarily forget about their daily
concerns and problems.
However, watching movies aren't always beneficial. Studies have shown that some
people get real pleasure out of being scared by horror movies, but in various ways
they may be risking their physical and mental health without even knowing it. When
you watch a tense scene in a movie, your heart rate and blood pressure increase.
Meanwhile this change in your brain chemistry reminds you of times when you were
in a similar state, even if you have no idea you even had those memories. So if
something horrible happens to you, being scared again by a movie can unintentionally
make you experience it once more.
Scientist, politicians and parents have debated for decades if being exposed to
movie violence leads to actual real-life violence. Overall the answer to that is
probably still up in the air, but a new study seems to prove that watching aggression
on screen can contribute to being a bully in real life, even if it is just in the short term.
In conclusion, certain movies play a positive role, but not all movies do. It depends
completely on the subject of the movie. So it's always advisable to choose the movies
concerning something positive.
28.How does watching sad movies benefit us according to the text?A. It rids us of unhappy memories.
B. It makes us content with our lives.
C. It reduces our risk of illness.
D. It develops our creativity.
29.What does the underlined part "up in the air" in Paragraph 4 mean?
A. Meaningless B. AttractiveC. Obvious D. Uncertain
30.What does the author advise us to do to reduce the passive effect of movies?
A. Make a wise choice of what to watch.
B. Enjoy movies with more companions.
C. Try our best to watch movies less often.
D. Raise our ability to tell right from wrong.

Why We Still Need to Read Dickens
Walk into any bookstore，and you can hardly avoid bumping into Charles
Dickens.Many of Dickens's works still sell well today. 31
As someone who teaches Dickens，the question of why we still read him is often on
my mind. 32 One day nearly 10 years ago，however，when I was giving a lecture，I
was telling the students that for Victorian readers，Dickenss writing was
a "tune-in-next-weektype of thing that generated crazes. 33 "But why should we still
read this stuff?"the student asked.The answer I gave was only acceptable，"Because he
teaches you how to think，"I said.The question annoyed me for years，and for years I
told myself answers，but never with complete satisfaction.We read Dickens because
he is not just a man of his own times，but also a man for our times.We read Dickens
because we can learn from experiences of his characters almost as easily as we can
learn from our own experiences. 34 But these are not exactly the reason why I read
Dickens.My search for an answer continued until one day a text message came from a student of mine."We still read Dickens's novels,"he wrote，"because they tell us why
we are what we are."Simple as it was，that's the explanation I had sought for years.
Dickens shines a light on who we are during the best of times and worst of
times. 35 If you have time，go to pick up one of his many novels，read it and enjoy
what it has to tell you about yourself.
A．Then a hand shot up.
B．I knew that wasn't really the reason.
C．And they are placed on outstanding shelves.
D．That question was never more troubling.
E．That's why we still need to read him today.
F．I already know who it is I'll meet in those novels.
G．These are all wonderful reasons to read Dickens.

第二节 概要写作(满分 25 分)
阅读下面短文，根据其内容写一篇 60 词左右的内容概要。
Over the past few years, there has been a big increase in the number of people
sharing information online. In this article, we will learn about some positive factors
for people to share information online.
We often share information with our friends in the office or at home to educate,
entertain or pleasantly surprise them. In this way we can connect with others. This is
also true while sharing information online. If you look at the Facebook wall posts of
your friends, you will realize that most of their updates are usually famous quotes,
entertaining videos, inspirational images, funny jokes, etc. 94% of those who
responded to a survey by the new York Times said they put a lot of thought into how
the content they are sharing will be beneficial to others.
A lot of people share information online to portray their true self to the outside
world. Some people, especially those who are shy and not comfortable talking about
their areas of interest in the presence of others, find it extremely convenient to share
that information online with like-minded individuals.
78% of the respondents in the study of The New York Times said they shared
information online because it helps them develop better relationships. Today, a lot of
people do not have the time to meet each other in person, and the Internet has become
a great substitute. A lot of people now "meet" each other online, rather than in
conventional places like restaurants and pubs.Lastly, when we share our thoughts online, we are actively engaging with the vast
community of people who are a part of the World Wide Web. Sharing information
will make a difference to the viewpoint of others, or add to their understanding about
the world.高二英语参考答案
