“Music is the one incorporeal (无形的)  entrance into the higher world of knowledge which

comprehends mankind but which mankind cannot comprehend," said famous German pianist and

composer Ludwig van Beethoven. This year marks the 25 lth anniversary of Beethoven's birth on

Dec 17, 1770. As one of the fathers of classical music, Beethoven was revolutionary, breaking the

rules and stretching musical forms to unleash (释放) emotion.

Although some may claim that classical music is a dying art only for the elites (精英人士) , it is

actually alive and well in the modern era. It's not uncommon for today's musicians to have grown

up playing classical instruments such as the violin or piano. Even those who don' t play or listen to

classical music are likely to have been introduced to it through movies and even video games.

Many  of the  most  recognizable names  in  the music  industry  have drawn  inspiration  from

classical music. UK legendary rock band The Beatles is one of them. John Lennon, while lying on

his couch listening to his wife play Beethoven's Moonlight Sonata on the piano, asked her to play

it backward and was immediately inspired to write the song Because. The song itself is similar to

Moonlight Sonata with simple, straightforward lyrics.

This is just one example. Countless musicians have been influenced by Beethoven, and classical

music  as a  whole.  Record  producer George  Martin  once  said: “They  always  had  enormous

confidence that  the world was  theirs for the  taking." This quote  seems to sum  up not only  the

mentality  of more  modern  era musicians,  but  that of  those  classical artists  who  formed the

building blocks of music today. They were making a bold, grandiose (浮夸的) and very innovative

statement, not holding anything back.

Whether you're  a music scholar or  a passive listener, you  can't deny that  classical musicians'

influence  remains  strong  centuries  after  the  artists  have  passed.  Musicians  like  Beethoven

continue illustrate their impact on the unifying force that is music.

24. What is the main idea of the second paragraph?

A. Classical music is not an dying art.

B. Classical music becomes less popular.

C. Today's musicians still play classical music.   D. The classical music audience grows sharply.

25. The author mentions The Beatles in order to

A. introduce the song Because

B. express his love for John Lennon

C. show the charm of Moonlight Sonata

26. What does “that" in Paragraph 4 refer to?

D. prove the great influence of classical music

A. The quote.

B. The mentality.

C. The confidence.

B. He is a musician.

D. The modern era.

27. What can we infer about the writer?

A. He is an elite.

C. He hates modern music.

D. He thinks highly of classical music.

C

Multiple actions  have been taken  to fight  food waste,  but one young  man is making  a big

difference with technology.

Liu Jichen,  23, a student  from Tsinghua University,  has developed a WeChat  mini-program

called “Clear Your  Plate". After a meal,  users can open the  mini-program and take  a picture of

their empty plates. Once the image is recognized by the AI, users can collect points and use them

to buy gifts or purchase charity meals donated to children in impoverished (贫困的) rural areas.

“Technological innovation is  a good way to reduce  food waste," Liu thought.  He organized a

team of  20 members to  work on  the project at  the end  of 2017. To  solve the AI's  problem of

identifying photos of empty plates, the team spent half a year  collecting over 100,000 samples in

canteens and restaurants. In  2018, the mini program was officially  put into operation on Oct 16,

World Food Day.

"There were  so many  unknowns in research  and development.  For our  team members, the

biggest psychological challenge was whether we were confident enough to complete it," Liu said.

They not only achieved their goal, but now, the  mini-program has more than 5 million registered

users, according to Liu.

Thanks to  his innovative and practical  actions concerning social  issues, Liu, along  with the

other 16 members, stood out among more than  7,600 candidates around the world to be inducted

(入选)   into the 2020 Class of Young Leaders for the Sustainable Development Goals by the UN

Office of the Secretary General's Envoy on Youth in September.

“We hope our efforts can start a new trend among the younger generation by encouraging them

to cherish their food  and develop the habit of  thrift (节约  )”Liu  told China Daily. "We hope to

inspire everyone to take action against food waste and to contribute Chinese wisdom and solutions

to global food security challenges," he added.

28. What do we know about the mini-program from the text?

A. It can solve AI's problems.

B. It was created by WeChat.

D. It was officially named World Food Day.

C. It can judge whether a plate is empty.

29. What is the most important for Liu and his team to finish their work?

A. Physical strength.            B. Technology.             C. Enough research.

30. What is Liu's purpose to develop this WeChat mini-program?

D. Strong belief.

A. To help poor children.

B. To reduce food waste.

D. To arouse awareness of innovation.

C. To be awarded by the UN.

31. Which word can best describe the author's attitude to the efforts of these young people?

A. Negative.                      B. Tolerant.                   C. Positive.               D. Unwilling

D

It could be said that the northernmost part of our planet holds the secrets of our past as well as

our future.

The icy land is, in fact,  not a place for the weak. This vast land of wilderness  is where people

can get up close to  nature's extremes. The place is “no joke",  US photographer Mark Mahaney

told PLAIN Magazine.“When midnight sun is replaced by polar night, everything's different. Eyes

to the horizon and it's nothing. And then more nothing, in every direction.'

One of the most harsh, yet most pristine (原始的)  places on Earth, the Arctic has been affected

by human  activities - exploration,  booming tourism and  most importantly, global  warming - in

recent decades.

Scientists  have been  recording changes  in  the Arctic.  Its sea  ice minimum  in summer,  for

example, has reduced by 40 percent in the past 30 years, NASA data showed. These changes have

all taken a toll(造成破坏) on the Arctic and the human, animal and plant life that calls it home.

But the impact of these changes is not restricted to  the inhabitants of this area alone. In fact, it

could be said that the weight of the world relies on this icy region.

The Earth's steady climate depends on the Arctic's sea ice, which acts as a huge white reflector

at the top of the planet, bouncing some of the sun's rays back into space. The more Arctic sea ice

melts, the less light is reflected, and the more the dark oceans will absorb the sun's radiation. The

Arctic also helps circulate ocean currents, moving cold and warm water around the globe.

With visible  changes  in the  global climate,  the Arctic  has given  us  a wake-up  call -  what

happens up in the North doesn't just stay there. It comes with a high cost to the world at large. It's

time for us to pay attention  to this chilly region and learn more about what's  happening there, as

well as its past and possible future.

32. What does the underlined sentence “The place is “no joke” in Paragraph 2 probably mean?

A. The weak are unhappy in the Arctic.

B. The natural conditions are poor in the Arctic.

C. Photographers are not allowed to take photos.

D. People are forbidden to make jokes in the Arctic.

33. What has caused the changes in the Arctic?

A. Animals and plants.

B. Global warming.

C. The activities of human beings.

34. What is the function of the Arctic's sea ice?

A. To regulate climate.

D. The scientists' records.

B. To keep water clean.

C. To attract the sun's rays.

D. To support the living creatures.

35. Which of the following can be the best title for the text?

A. The Most Harsh Land

B. Changes of the Arctic

D. Nature's Extremes Attracting Scientists .

C. The Arctic Sending Warning Signals

Dear Peter,

Congratulations on your great English mark. I'm proud with you. I wish I am doing as well in

my English class. I try really hardly but I just don't seem to get any better. For example, we have

to learn 50  new words every  weeks and the  teacher tests us on  Mondays. I spend  half an hour

every afternoon learn the words, so I still get only about 20 out of 50 correct in the test.

And I'm not much better at reading. I read passages and half the time they don't make a sense. It

takes me ages to read because the new words. Then I usually forget that I have read. Have you got

any suggestions? I need you help.

Best wishes,

Li Hua
