　　Ⅰ.阅读理解

　　A

　　(建议用时7′)

　　A dragon boat is nothing but a human­powered watercraft.It is made out of wood in China’s southern Guangdong Province.It is made into various designs and sizes.

　　Dragon boat racing is a kind of sport of team paddling，an amateur water sport dating back to long time ago.Dragon boat racing has become an international sport in modern times，starting in 1976 in Hong Kong.However，the history of dragon boats in competition goes as far back as the same age as the games of Olympiad taking place.

　　The usual crew of a modern dragon boat typically consists of 22 people，including 20 paddlers in pairs facing the front of the boat.Then there is one drummer or caller at the front，facing the paddlers and finally one who steers(掌舵) standing at the rear end of the boat.Dragon boats vary in length，naturally changing the number of crew，from 10 paddlers in small dragon boats up to 50 paddlers in the traditional boats.

　　The international dragon boat festival in the west was first organized in June 1983 in San Diego，California.While in Boston，Massachusetts people find it good to observe over 50 teams racing down Charles River.The Boston Dragon Boat Festival is a total playing place for lovers of crafts(工艺品)．There are many workshops you can join like making zongzi，folding paper into butterflies and boats and also decorating opera masks.

　　It is no argument that Denver in Colorado takes its racing quite seriously.The Colorado Dragon Boat Festival starts off with a 75­foot dragon dance and a team parade in traditional Chinese costume.Following the opening ceremony，the festival includes both flag­catching races on Taiwanese boats and lightning­speed races on Hong Kong boats.The competition is sure to get you excited.

　　1．How many people facing forward are there in the dragon boat commonly?

　　A．20.

　　B．42.

　　C．21.

　　D．22

　　答案　C

　　解析　细节理解题。根据文章第三段可知龙舟上通常有22人，20个划船人员面朝前，1个鼓手面朝后，1个舵手面朝前。因此面朝前的一共是21个人。

　　2．According to the text，which statement is TRUE about dragon boats?

　　A．All kinds of materials can be used to make dragon boats.

　　B．The number of paddlers varies with the size of the boat.

　　C．It was in Hong Kong that people began the dragon boat racing.

　　D．Boston organized the first international dragon boat festival.

　　答案　B

　　解析　细节理解题。根据文章第三段最后一句可知，龙舟的长度不同，划船人员数量也随之变化，从10人到50人不等。故选B项。

　　3．What can NOT be done during the Boston Dragon Boat Festival?

　　A．Making zongzi.

　　B．Folding paper into butterflies.

　　C．Flag­catching races.

　　D．Decorating opera masks.

　　答案　C

　　解析　细节理解题。根据文章最后两段可知，波士顿龙舟节活动包括A、B、D三项；C项抢旗比赛是丹佛市龙舟节的项目。故选C。

　　4．When you are spending the Dragon Boat Festival in Denver，you will

　　.

　　A．feel excited at the opening ceremony

　　B．watch flag­catching races on Hong Kong boats

　　C．find a group of people wearing American costume

　　D．see a 75­foot dragon dance and lightning­speed races

　　答案　D

　　A report from the American Academy of Arts and Sciences’ Commission reveals that，due to a job market which disproportionately rewards graduates in STEM (science，technology，engineering，and mathematics) fields，more and more students are seeking degrees in business and hard­science subjects.

　　Some institutions have responded by cutting budgets in the arts and humanities and directing those funds elsewhere.That’s the wrong thing to do.The humanities—the study of languages，literature，history，philosophy，religion，ethics，etc.—and the arts are vital to our future.We should be investing more funds，more time and more expertise，not less，into these endeavors.

　　What detractors(诋毁者) of the “soft” subjects miss is that the arts and humanities provide an essential framework and context for understanding the wider world.Studying the humanities strengthens the ability to communicate and work with others.It allows students to develop broad intellectual and cultural understanding；it nurtures creativity and deepens participation in public discourse and modern democracy.

　　The commission’s report points out that “at the very moment when China is seeking to adopt our model of broad education in the humanities，social sciences and natural sciences as a stimulus to invention，the United States is instead narrowing our focus and abandoning our sense of what education has been and should continue to be our sense of what makes America great.”

　　These are the telling statistics：First，federal funding for helping American students include international training in their education has been cut 41 percent in four years.Second，the National Assessment of Educational Progress test shows that only less than a quarter of eighth­ and 12th­grade US students are proficient in reading，writing and civics.

　　How can we possibly equip the US for its leadership role in an increasingly connected world if we are not adequately teaching students to communicate and helping them understand and encounter diverse perspectives？If we fail to invest in the arts and humanities，our country’s future leaders will not have the ability to connect on an emotional level with others.This ability is developed by studying the humanities，and in the global community this skill is not optional—it’s essential.

　　In a word，we must enthusiastically support and fund the study of the arts and humanities.For anyone concerned with how this translates into a sound economy and a sound financial future，simply recall what Steve Jobs told graduates of Stanford University in 2005：One of the most influential experiences in his brief time at Reed College was his exposure to the fine art of calligraphy(书法)．It taught him the important lesson of the relationship between discipline and creativity.

　　5．What can be inferred from the passage?

　　A．Business and hard­science subjects are based upon the arts and humanities.

　　B．At present too much emphasis and investment are put on science in America.

　　C．More students will learn the arts and humanities instead of science in the USA.

　　D．China has spent more money in the humanities and social sciences than the USA.

　　答案　B

　　解析　推理判断题。根据第一段最后一句话“...more and more students are seeking degrees in business and hard­science subjects.”越来越多的学生学习理科和商业说明现在国家把重点和投资放在了这些方面。

　　6．The author mentions Steve Jobs in the last paragraph to prove that

　　.

　　A．science has a close relationship with the arts and humanities

　　B．investment in the arts and humanities promotes economic development

　　C．calligraphy plays a determining role in Steve Jobs’ accomplishment

　　D．Reed College supports and funds the study of the arts and humanities

　　答案　B

　　解析　细节理解题。举Steve Jobs的例子，就是为了证明最后一段第二句话“For anyone concerned with how this translates into a sound economy and a sound financial future...”投资和支持艺术与人文科学可以促进经济的发展。

　　7．Which of the following is the most suitable title for this passage?

　　A．Significance of Arts and Humanities

　　B．Key Qualities of Future Leaders

　　C．Decline of Arts and Humanities

　　D．Rise and Fall of Hard Sciences

　　答案　A

　　解析　标题归纳题。文章最后一段总结全文，强调了艺术和人文科学的重要性，故答案选A。

　　参考范文

　　Dear Peter，

　　In your letter you mentioned how to get the preference of Chinese universities.I believe there would be three main aspects to be taken into account.

　　Initially，having a good command of Chinese is a basic need to live in China.With this ability，you can communicate with native speakers easily and have access to abundant resources.Moreover，it is vital to adapt to the new environment instantly.The sooner you can get used to the new environment，the more beneficial it will become to you.Last but not least，personal interests and hobbies are also highly valued.You should choose a major that you want to devote yourself to.

　　With all the strengths I mentioned above，I am sure you can overcome all the difficulties and make greater progress in China.

　　Best wishes and good luck!

　　Yours，

　　Li Hua
