Experience fine art at these famous museums and galleries around the world.
The Prado, Madrid, Spain
The Spanish royal family is responsible for the Prado’s classical masterpieces. Over centuries, kings and queens collected art with passion and good taste. In addition to stars of Spanish painting such as Velazquez, Goya and Ribera, the Prado has big collections of Italian artists such as Raphael. Fernando VII opened the collection to the public in 1819, in the same building it’s housed in today, designed by Juan de Villanueva.
Main attraction: The oil painting The Three Graces by Rubens.
Rijksmuseum, Amsterdam, the Netherlands
About 900,000 objects fill the Rijksmuseum, the largest collection of art and history in the Netherlands. It is most famous for its paintings by 17th-century Dutch masters, including Ruysdael, Frans Hals, Johannes Vermeer and Rembrandt van Rijn. Established in 1800 to exhibit the collections of the Dutch stadholders(总督), the Rijksmuseum also displays art from the Middle Ages. The main building is closed for repair now; collection highlights are displayed in the Philips Wing and at Rijksmuseum Schiphol.
Main attraction: The painting The Night Watch by Rembrandt.
The Uffizi Gallery, Florence, Italy
In Italy, there are many monuments and works of art that get the highest praise. In the case of the Uffizi Gallery, it holds the world’s finest collection of Renaissance paintings. All the famous names of Italian art are here — not only the Renaissance masters, but also painters from the early periods.
Main attraction: The painting The Birth of Venus by Botticelli.
The British Museum, London, England
Britain’s largest museum looks after the national collection of archaeology (考古学). It houses more than eight million objects from different historical periods. The Egyptian gallery contains the world’s second finest collection of Egyptian antiquities (古物) outside Egypt.
Main attraction: The Rosetta Stone carved in 196 B. C.
1. Who made the Prado collection open to the public?

2. Which of the following statements is wrong about Rijksmuseum?
A. It was built in the 19th century.
B. It as a whole is available for visiting now.

【答案】1. D 2. B 3. C
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇应用文，介绍了世界上四个著名的博物馆和画廊。
【1题详解】
细节理解题。根据The Prado这一段落中“Fernando VII opened the collection to the public in 1819, in the same building it’s housed in today, designed by Juan de Villanueva.(费尔南多七世在1819年向公众开放了这些藏品，就在今天收藏的同一栋建筑里，由胡安·德维兰纽瓦设计)”可知，费尔南多七世向公众开放了这些藏品。故选D。
【2题详解】
细节理解题。根据Rijksmuseum这一部分中“The main building is closed for repair now (主楼现已关闭维修)”可知，Rijksmuseum的主楼不能参观。所以B项It as a whole is available for visiting now(它现在整体上可以参观)说法错误。故选B。
【3题详解】
细节理解题。根据The Uffizi Gallery部分中“All the famous names of Italian art are here — not only the Renaissance masters, but also painters from the early periods(意大利艺术的所有著名人物都在这里——不仅有文艺复兴时期的大师，还有早期的画家)”以及The British Museum部分中“It houses more than eight million objects from different historical periods(它收藏了来自不同历史时期的800多万件文物)”可知，两个博物馆的共同之处在于他们都展示不同时期的收藏品。故选C。
B
Life in the future will be different from the life today. Between then and now many changes will happen. But what will the changes be?
The population is growing fast. And most of them will live longer than people now.
Computers will be much smaller and more useful, and there will be at least one in every room. And computer studies will be one of the important subjects in schools then. People will work fewer hours than they do now and they will have more free time for sports, watching TV and travel. Travelling will be much cheaper and easier. And many more people will go to other countries for holidays.
There will be changes in our food, too. More land will be used for building new towns and houses for all the people. Then there will be less room for cows and sheep, so meat will be more expensive. Maybe no one will eat it every day. Instead, they will eat more fruits and vegetables. Maybe people will be healthier. Work in the future will be different, too. Robots will do dangerous and hard work. Because of this, many people will not have enough work to do. This will be a big problem.
4. In the future there will be________.
A. fewer vegetables B. much more fruit C. more people D. less people
5. In the future people don’t have to________.
A. walk on foot B. work long hours C. work fast D. eat meat

C
“I want to work full-time in China, honey.” An overseas call awakened the wife from sound sleep. “Why?” asked the wife with surprise, in a drowsy voice, from the other side of the ocean.
In the United States, he had a great future ahead. At the age of 36, he became the youngest professor in the history of the Department of Molecular Biology at Princeton University, for his academic achievements. At 40, he became a tenured(终身的) chair professor at Princeton.
When everything seemed perfect and admirable to others he firmly decided to say goodbye to Princeton University, to an affluent life in the United States, and return to China.
The news spread explosively. Many expressed confusions; many tried to persuade him; many made fun of him; and still many waited to have a good laugh at him.
He said patriotism is the plainest feeling of a person. Who doesn’t love his motherland, after all? In his heart, the American dream is already something past; the Chinese dream is rising.
After returning to China, he devoted all his energy, worked like crazy, and determined to do something big. He formed a life science research team. Every day, he works 12 to 16 hours at his laboratory. He is Shi Yigong, nicknamed “Da Niu” (someone with extraordinary achievements) by Tsinghua students. His given name, Yigong, comes from an idiom that means “devoted to public interest whole-heartedly”. “So far as I’m concerned, awards are of no special meaning.” Shi says calmly.
In his 18 years of study in the United States, he never forgot his Chinese dream. In the next 18 years, the Chinese dream will be more beautiful and greater by the efforts of Shi Yigong and the likes of him.
8. Why was Shi determined to return to China?
A. To look for a better career. B. To reunite with his wife.
C. To live a quieter life. D. To serve his motherland.
9. What does the underlined word “affluent” in Paragraph 3 probably mean?
A. Busy. B. Miserable.
C. Wealthy. D. Adventurous.
10. Why is Shi Yigong called “Da Niu” by his Tsinghua students?
A. To show his unusual achievements. B. To support his life science research.
C. To introduce his endless energy in work. D. To praise his honesty.
11. What can we know about Shi Yigong?
A. He doesn’t care much about reputation.
B. He is the youngest professor in history.
C. His decision was well-received.
D. His Chinese dream will be realized in 18 years.
【答案】8. D 9. C 10. A 11. A
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇记叙文。文章主要叙述了在美国前途无量的施一公，因为无法割舍的爱国之情，毅然告别美国，回到中国，为祖国服务，实现自己的中国梦。
【8题详解】
推理判断题。根据倒数第二段中“After returning to China, he devoted all his energy, worked like crazy, and determined to do something big. He formed a life science research team. Every day, he works 12 to 16 hours at his laboratory.(回国后，他投入了所有的精力，疯狂地工作，决心做一件大事。他组建了一个生命科学研究小组。他每天在实验室里工作12到16个小时)”可知，施一公回中国是为了为祖国服务。故选D项。
【9题详解】
词义猜测题。根据第二段“In the United States, he had a great future ahead. At the age of 36, he became the youngest professor in the history of the Department of Molecular Biology at Princeton University, for his academic achievements. At 40, he became a tenured (终身) chair professor at Princeton.(在美国，他前途无量。36岁时，他成为普林斯顿大学分子生物系历史上最年轻的教授，因为他的学术成就。40岁时，他成为普林斯顿大学的终身教授)”及第三段“When everything seemed perfect and admirable to others(当一切在别人看来似乎都是完美和令人钦佩的时候)”可知，施一公在美国有着非凡的学术成就，并最终成为普林斯顿大学的终身教授，有着完美的令人钦佩的生活，可推断他告别的是美国 “富足的”生活，affluent意为“富足的”。故选C项。
【10题详解】
细节理解题。根据倒数第二段中“He is Shi Yigong, nicknamed ‘Da Niu’ (someone with extraordinary achievements) by Tsinghua students.(他就是施一公，被清华大学的学生戏称为‘大牛’（有着非凡成就的人）)”可知，他的学生给他取名“大牛”是为了显示他非凡的成就。故选A项。
【11题详解】
推理判断题。根据倒数第二段中“‘So far as I’m concerned, awards are of no special meaning.’ Shi says calmly.(‘在我看来，奖项没有什么特别的意义。’ 施一公平静地说)”可知，施一公并不在乎自己获得的奖项，也就是不在乎奖项所代表的名声。故选A项。
D
Amazon sells 1,161 kinds of toilet brushes. I know this because I recently spent an evening trying to choose one of them for the bathroom in my new apartment. Nearly an hour later, after having read countless contradictory(矛盾的) reviews and considering far too many choices, I felt tired and simply gave up. The next day, I happily bought the only toilet brush the local dollar store offered.
Too many choices exhaust us, make us unhappy and lead us to sometimes flee from making a decision altogether. Researcher Barry Schwartz calls this “choice overload”. And it’s not just insignificant details like which brush to wipe the inside of the toilet with — having too many choices in our creative and professional lives can lead us to avoid making important decisions.
Understanding how and why we make decisions can perhaps help us make better choices down the line. We make poorer decisions when we are tired. It’s caused by decision fatigue(疲劳). The mind can only sort through so many choices and make so many choices before it starts to run out of steam. That’s why impulse buys like candy bars and magazines at the checkout aisle in the grocery store can be hard to resist. We’ve exhausted all our good decision-making skills.
The same goes for our workday. Making lots of decisions not only exhausts us; it can put us in a bad mood. That’s why it’s necessary to make your most important decisions in the morning rather than at the end of an exhausting day when your energy has been used up. The idiom “sleep on it” is indeed effective when it comes to making big decisions.
When we’re tired, we tend to conserve our energy by making choices based on a single factor like price, rather than considering all the other determinants that go into making the best decision. When you’re doing this, you are acting as what researchers call a cognitive miser(小气鬼).
To conclude, letting yourself have fewer choices to choose from can help you arrive at a more creative answer.
12. Why did the author go to the local dollar store in the end?
A. She couldn’t find good toilet brushes in Amazon.
B. The brushed there was cheaper.
C. She encountered good reviews about brushes there.
D. She had got tired of the choices.
13. What can we learn about “choice overload”?
A. It can benefit our professional skills.
B. It can prevent us from making good decisions.
C. It means working too much at a time.
D. It was first discovered by Barry Schwartz.
14. What does the underlined idiom “sleep on it” in Paragraph 4 mean?
A. To make big decisions on the next morning.
B. To make big decisions before you sleep.
C. To make big decisions despite sleepiness.
D. To make big decisions in an exhausting day.
15. What is the text mainly about?
A. Getting enough sleep every day is important.
B. Having fewer choices may benefit us more.
C. Reading reviews before shopping online is useful.
D. Considering many factors to make a choice is necessary.
【答案】12. D 13. B 14. A 15. B
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇议论文。作者通过自己买马桶刷的例子，引出了选择过量现象，然后介绍了选择过量会让我们疲惫不堪，最后指出选择越少，对我们越有好处。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段“Nearly an hour later, after having read countless contradictory(矛盾的) reviews and considering far too many choices, I felt tired and simply gave up. The next day, I happily bought the only toilet brush the local dollar store offered.(近一个小时后，在阅读了无数相互矛盾的评论，考虑了太多的选择后，我觉得累了，干脆放弃了。第二天，我高兴地买了当地一元店唯一提供的马桶刷)”可知，作者厌倦了过量的选择才去了当地的一元店。故选D项。
【13题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中“Too many choices exhaust us, make us unhappy and lead us to sometimes flee from making a decision altogether. Researcher Barry Schwartz calls this ‘choice overload’.(太多的选择让我们精疲力尽，让我们不快乐，有时甚至导致我们逃避做决定。研究人员Barry Schwartz称之为‘选择过量’)”以及“having too many choices in our creative and professional lives can lead us to avoid making important decisions(在我们的创作和职业生活中有太多的选择会导致我们逃避做出重要的决定)”可知，过量选择让我们疲惫不堪，不开心，有时会让我们逃避做决定，所以过量选择会阻止我们在工作中做出好的决定。故选B项。
【14题详解】
短语猜测题。根据第四段“That’s why it’s necessary to make your most important decisions in the morning rather than at the end of an exhausting day when your energy has been used up.(这就是为什么你必须在早上做出最重要的决定，而不是在疲惫的一天结束时，你的精力已经耗尽)”可知，在早上做重大决定胜过在一天筋疲力尽时做重大决定，再根据画线词语所在句“The idiom ‘sleep on it’ is indeed effective when it comes to making big decisions.(‘sleep on it’这个习语在做重大决定时确实很有效)”可知，在做重大决定时“sleep on it”确实有效，即上文提到的把重大决定推迟到第二天不累的时候，这样做很有效。故选A项。
【15题详解】
主旨大意题。文章开头通过作者自己买马桶刷的例子，引出了过量选择现象。后续介绍了过量选择会让我们疲惫不堪，有时会让我们逃避做决定，建议我们第二天不累的时候把再做重大决定，让自己有更少的选择可以帮助我们得到更有创意的答案。再结合最后一段“To conclude, letting yourself have fewer choices to choose from can help you arrive at a more creative answer.(最后，让自己有更少的选择可以帮助你得到一个更有创意的答案)”可知，本文的主题是：选择越少，对我们越有好处。故选B项。
第二节 (共5小题:每小题2.5分，满分12.5分)
阅读短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
It's been a common problem that most of popular kids' apps contain some form of marketing. App developers and platforms make more money when more ads are viewed or clicked. Children, with their weaker self-control, are a prime target. Some developers use manipulative（操纵性的）approaches like showing a fancy present, which takes the children to an ad when clicked.___16___Don`t worry. Here's how you can intervene:
Examine before downloading apps. Your children can't download apps without you entering your password, so you can review apps before they are downloaded.___17___People usually post complaints when apps are packed with ads.
Teach your kids to look for help. When ads pop up inside apps, make sure your kids don't play or download the advertised game immediately.___18___In this way, they learn to identify strange ads and have the apps removed.
___19___You may start with these questions：Do you ever get tricked by the app, like you think something is a present, and they just show you an ad? Do they ever force you to watch ads to get more fun things in the app?
Make complaint if necessary. Even some school-issued apps pressure families to purchase accounts. If this happens to you, complain to your school district.
Raising kids in the Internet age means teaching them to recognize when someone is trying to sell them new things or new ideas, from toys to misinformation.___20___
A. Ask your children often.
B. Ask about your kid' preferences
C. They have to understand the tricks of in-app advertising.
D. With proper guidance, kids can grow up to be critical digital thinkers.
E. Instead, they should be taught to be alert, and turn to adults for advice
F. Then you can read reviews on websites or check-the reviews in the app store
G. Unfortunately, there are no laws restricting how many ads can pop up in children's apps
【答案】16. G 17. F 18. C 19. A 20. D
【解析】
【分析】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了下载儿童应用程序时如何避免广告营销。
【16题详解】
根据前文“Some developers use manipulative（操纵性的）approaches like showing a fancy present, which takes the children to an ad when clicked. (一些开发者使用一些操纵性的方法，比如展示一份精美的礼物，点击时会带孩子们去看广告。)”可知，此处是讲开发者会引诱孩子去看广告。根据后文“Don`t worry. (不要担心)”可知，这种状况并没有法律限制，所以选项G“Unfortunately, there are no laws restricting how many ads can pop up in children's apps.(不幸的是，没有法律限制儿童应用程序中可以弹出多少广告。)”切合文意。故选G。
【17题详解】
根据后文“People usually post complaints when apps are packed with ads.(当应用程序中充斥着广告时，人们通常会发布投诉。)”可知，此处是指在下载前应查看评价。所以选项F“Then you can read reviews on websites or check-the reviews in the app store.(然后，您可以在网站上阅读评论或在应用商店中查看评论。)”切合文意。故选F。
【18题详解】
根据前文“When ads pop up inside apps, make sure your kids don't play or download the advertised game immediately.(当广告在应用中弹出时，确保你的孩子不会立即玩或下载广告中的游戏。)”和后文“In this way, they learn to identify strange ads and have the apps removed.(通过这种方式，他们学会识别奇怪的广告，并删除应用程序。)”可知，广告隐藏在应用程序中，要让孩子理解这种技巧。所以选项C“They have to understand the tricks of in-app advertising. (他们必须理解应用内部广告的技巧。)”切合文意。故选C。
【19题详解】
根据后文“You may start with these questions：Do you ever get tricked by the app, like you think something is a present, and they just show you an ad? Do they ever force you to watch ads to get more fun things in the app? (你可能会从这些问题开始：你有没有被这款应用欺骗过，比如你以为这是一件礼物，结果他们只是给你看了一个广告?他们有没有强迫你看广告，以便在应用程序中获得更多有趣的东西?)”可知，要经常问孩子这些问题。所以选项A“Ask your children often. (经常询问你的孩子。)”切合文意。故选A。
【20题详解】
根据前文“Raising kids in the Internet age means teaching them to recognize when someone is trying to sell them new things or new ideas, from toys to misinformation. (在互联网时代抚养孩子意味着教他们识别什么时候有人试图卖给他们新东西或新想法，从玩具到错误信息。)”可知，孩子要在父母的指导下辨别是非。所以选项D“With proper guidance, kids can grow up to be critical digital thinkers. (在适当的指导下，孩子们可以成长为批判性的数字思考者。)”切合文意。故选D。
