Never before had a Kitchen so much of a History
It tells of Freedom,Success,and of the Architecture of big American cities.Because that is where it started:in
the second half of the 19th century!
Welcome to a new Era of Kitchen Interior Design
Back then,a Generation of successful American Entrepreneurs dreamt of a new style of Architecture to express
their personal wealth.This dream was realized by young architects such as Daniel Burnham and Stanford
White.They all had studied at the École des Beaux-Arts in Paris.And they created a new style for Architecture and
Interior Design,named after the famous French Art Institute:Beaux-Arts.
SieMatic BeauxArts Breaks and Creates
In fact it was not a new style at all,but a composition of styles from different periods and cultures.Many
world-famous structures such as the Chicago Art Institute and the Statue of Liberty account for it.But what does
that have to do with your kitchen?Just as much as you want it to.Because in the same way that the anti-conventional
architects back then took the freedom to combine elements from different historical eras,today,you too can break
the conventional rules of style and create something new:your own personal composition of your kitchen.For
that,SieMatic BeauxArts offers unique opportunities:A broad range of seemingly conflicting features that you
combine to a harmonious design of your own.You can choose from menu of various forms,appealing colors,and
precious materials,to create an environment that is much more than just a kitchen:a reflection of your personality.
56.Why did the BeauxArts style attract American entrepreneurs?
A.It helped display their money status.
B.It was created by famous architects.
C.It was named after a famous institute.
D.It represented the 19th century urban culture.

Joy Mangano was 33 and divorced, had three kids under age 7, and was barely keeping up payments on her
small two-bedroom home by working extra weekend hours as a waitress, "There were times when I would lie in - 4 -
bed and think, I don't know how I'm going to pay that bill," Mangano says.
But she had a special ability for seeing the obvious. She knew firsthand how hard it was to mop the floor. "I
was tired of bending down, putting my hands in dirty water, wringing out a mop," Mangano says. "So, I said,
'There's gotta be a better way."'
How about a "self-wringing" mop? She designed a distinctive tool you could twist in two directions at once,
and still keep your hands clean and dry. She set out to sell it, first a few at flea markets.
Then Mangano met with the media. But would couch potatoes(泡在电视机前的人) buy a mop? The
experts on shopping TV were less than certain. They gave it a try, and it failed. Mangano was sure it would sell if
they'd let her do the on-camera demonstration. "Brave little me. I said, 'Get me on that stage, and I will sell this
mop because it's a great item."'
So QVC, a multinational corporation specializing in televised home shopping, took a chance on her. "I got
onstage and the phones went crazy. We sold every mop in minutes."
Today she's president of Ingenious Designs, a multimillion-dollar company, and one of the stars of HSN, the
Home Shopping Network. Talking about her household inventions is "as natural for me as it is for a parent to talk
about their child," Mangano says.
Today one of her favorite products is Huggable Hangers. The thin, space-saving implements are the most
successful goods ever sold on HSN, with 100 million hanging out there in closets across the USA. Of course, you
couldn't possibly sell hangers on TV.
58. The two items that Mangano designed and produced are .
A. welcomed by housewives
B. bought by multinational corporations
C. seen at flea markets
D. found by the media
59. Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?
A. Mangano once had to work seven days a week to support her family.
B. Mangano got the idea of self-wringing mop from her own experience.
C. The experts on shopping TV were confident about Mangano's mop.
D. QVC is a business organization that sells goods on TV.
60. From the passage we can know that Mangano now .
A. sells her goods mostly at markets
B. has become famous and got rich
C. has stopped household inventions
D. has sold her two-bedroom home
61. Huggable Hanger is the thing that people can use .
A. to clean the floor
B. to take pictures like a camera
C. to make phone calls like a cellphone
D. to put their clothes on it to keep their shape

Freedom and Responsibility
Freedom’s challenge in the Digital Age is a serious topic.We are facing today a strange new world and we are
all wondering what we are going to do with it.
Some 2,500 years ago Greece discovered freedom.Before that there was no freedom.There were great
civilizations,splendid empires,but no freedom anywhere.Egypt and Babylon were both tyrannies,one very powerful
man ruling over helpless masses.
In Greece,in Athens(雅典),a little city in a little country,there were no helpless masses.And Athenians
willingly obeyed the written laws which they themselves passed,and the unwritten,which must be obeyed if free
men live together.They must show each other kindness and pity and the many qualities without which life would be
very painful unless one chose to live alone in the desert.The Athenians never thought that a man was free if he
could do what he wanted.A man was free if he was self-controlled.To make yourself obey what you approved was
freedom.They were saved from looking at their lives as their own private affair.Each one felt responsible for the - 6 -
welfare of Athens,not because it was forced on him from the outside,but because the city was his pride and his
safety.The essential belief of the first free government in the world was liberty for all men who could control
themselves and would take responsibility for the state.
But discovering freedom is not like discovering computers.It cannot be discovered once for all.If people do not
prize it,and work for it,it will go.Constant watch is its price.Athens changed.It was a change that took place without
being noticed though it was of the extreme importance,a spiritual change which affected the whole state.It had been
the Athenian’s pride and joy to give to their city.That they could get material benefits from her never entered their
minds.There had to be a complete change of attitude before they could look at the city as an employer who paid her
citizens for doing her work.Now instead of men giving to the state,the state was to give to them.What the people
wanted was a government which would provide a comfortable life for them;and with this as the primary
object,ideas of freedom and self-reliance and responsibility were neglected to the point of disappearing.Athens was
more and more looked on as a cooperative business possessed of great wealth in which all citizens had a right to
share.
Athens reached the point when the freedom she really wanted was freedom from responsibility.There could be
only one result.If men insisted on being free from the burden of self-dependence and responsibility for the common
good,they would cease to be free.Responsibility is the price every man must pay for freedom.It is to be had on no
other terms.Athens,the Athens of Ancient Greece,refused responsibility;she reached the end of freedom and was
never to have it again.
But,“the excellent becomes the permanent,”Aristotle said.Athens lost freedom forever,but freedom was not
lost forever for the world.A great American,James Madison,referred to:“The capacity(能力)of mankind for
self-government.”No doubt he had not an idea that he was speaking Greek.Athens was not in the farthest
background of his mind,but once man has a great and good idea,it is never completely lost.The Digital Age cannot
destroy it.Somehow in this or that man’s thought such an idea lives though unconsidered by the world of
action.One can never be sure that it is not on the point of breaking out into action only sure that it will do so
sometime.
65.What does the underlined word“tyrannies”in Paragraph 2 refer to?
A.Countries where their people need help.
B.Powerful states with higher civilization.
C.Splendid empires where people enjoy freedom.
D.Governments ruled with absolute power.
66.People believing in freedom are those who______.
A.regard their life as their own business
B.seek gains as their primary object
C.behave within the laws and value systems
D.treat others with kindness and pity
67.What change in attitude took place in Athens?
A.The Athenians refused to take their responsibility.
B.The Athenians no longer took pride in the city.
C.The Athenians benefited spiritually from the government.
D.The Athenians looked on the government as a business.
68.What does the sentence“There could be only one result.”in Paragraph 5 mean?
A.Athens would continue to be free.
B.Athens would cease to have freedom.
C.Freedom would come from responsibility.
D.Freedom would stop Athens from self-dependence.
69.Why does the author refer to Aristotle and Madison?
A.The author is hopeful about freedom.- 7 -
B.The author is cautious about self-government.
C.The author is skeptical of Greek civilization.
D.The author is proud of man’s capacity.
70.What is the author’s understanding of freedom?

第四部分 任务型阅读(共 10 小题;每小题 1 分,满分 10 分)
请认真阅读下面短文,并根据所读内容在文章后表格中的空格里填入一个最恰当的单词。
注意:每个空格只填一个单词。
Unless you are like Nasty Gal’s founder Sophia Amoruso,the passwords you use to access your email and
the endless other accounts you need for work aren’t filled with intention.With increasing security requirements,
it’s likely your word/number combinations are becoming even less memorable.But new research suggests it may
not be long before you won’t need to memorize passwords.
“Brainprint”,published in Neurocomputing,reveals that the brain’s reaction to certain words could be a
unique identifying code—like a fingerprint—that could eventually replace passwords.
In a small experiment,the researchers measured the brains’ signals of 45 volunteers as they read through a
list of 75 acronyms such as FBI and DVD.The word-recognition response differed so much between each
participant that a second experiment using a computer program could identify each one with 94% accuracy.
It’s not enough to feel totally secure , but promising enough to hint at the future of securing sensitive
information.
The advantage of using such a biometric system( 生 物 识 别 系 统 ) is that it can be used for continuous
verification( 验 证 ) , New Scientist points out.Passwords or fingerprints only provide a tool for one-off
identification.Continuous verification could in theory allow someone to interact with many computer systems at the
same time or even with a variety of intelligent objects ,without having to repeatedly enter passwords for each
device.
As Hollywood has illustrated , it’s simply a matter of cutting off a finger to steal that person’s
identity.“Brainprints,on the other hand,are potentially cancellable,” said Sarah Laszlo,assistant professor of
psychology and linguistics at Binghamton University and co-author of the study,“So,in the unlikely event that an
attacker was actually able to steal a brainprint from an authorized user,the authorized user could then ‘reset’
their brainprint.”
Until now ,brain signals have been a challenge to understand.This experiment leaped over the obstacle by
focusing on the brainwaves from the specific area that reads and recognizes words.The signal is therefore clearer
and easier to measure.
The problem,so far,is that the brain signal is still not as accurate as scanning someone’s fingerprint,and
initially requires sticking diodes(二极管) on your head in order to get a read.That’s OK,according to Zhanpeng
Jin,assistant professor at Binghamton University and co-author of the study,because brainprint isn’t going to be
mass-produced any time soon.He says the researchers foresee its use at places such as the Pentagon ,where the
number of authorized users is small,and they don’t need to be continuously verified the way you do to access your
mobile device or email.
Better keep your memory sharp,at least a little while longer.
Present situation Chances are that your passwords are becoming more 71. to
remember.

great deal between each participant,virtually 72. brainprint a
promising future.

using such system
•You can use it to 74. the device continuously without having

•Brain signals are now clearer and easier to measure by focusing on the

future as brainprint—like a fingerprint—could eventually take the 79.

Visiting famous universities during summer holidays is gaining popularity among high school students.
In recent years, many high schools have been organizing visits to famous universities during summer holidays.
Obviously, it is beneficial for us high school students.
Firstly, it’s a good way to relax ourselves, which is good for us both physically and mentally. Secondly, by
visiting those famous universities we can get to know more about them and can experience the academic
atmosphere there. Moreover, these visits can inspire us to set higher goals and arouse our enthusiasm to work
harder at our lessons.
However, the visits can have negative impacts on the part of the universities. Too many visitors on campus can
disturb the normal school life there, which is a great pressure for the universities concerned. Furthermore, it may
cause safety problems as well.
In my opinion, visiting universities during the holidays is a good idea, but we must make sure that it does not
become a burden for the universities.
