4.An old man was sitting on the sofa with Mike ,his 45﹣year﹣old son.Suddenly a dove landed on the ground.
The father asked his son ,"What is this?"
The son replied ,"It is a dove."
After a few minutes ,the father asked his son for the second time ,"What is this?"
The son said ,"Father ,I have just told you.It's a dove."
After a short while ,the old father asked his son for the third time ,"What is this?"
This time Mike could not control his anger and shouted ,"It's a dove ,a dove.Why do you keep asking me the same question again and again?I have told you so many times"IT IS A DOVE'.Don't you understand this?"
The old man silently took out an old diary ,turned to a page and showed it to Mike.Though a little impatient ,Mike began to read it.
"Today my little son aged three was sitting with me on the sofa ,when a dove landed on the ground ,and my son asked me what it was.I smiled at him ,said it was a dove and hugged him.After a while Mike asked me again and I did the same.Pointing to the same dove ,little Mike asked me what it was 23 times and I kept on replying to his question and hugging him every time." Something gently touched Mike's heart.His face turned red with shame for being so impatient with his father and he hugged him tightly.
Your parents have given you many things in their lifetime ,but you may not realize that until they are gone.
回答下面5个问题 ,每题答案不超过6个词。
(1)Where were Mike and his father sitting?
(2)How many times did the father ask his son the same question?
(3)How did Mike feel at first when his father showed him the diary?
(4)Why did Mike's face turn red after reading the diary?
(5)What really touched Mike's heart according to the passage?
5."If you are not fat ,you must be thin man."
"For every minute of breathing ,60 seconds pass."
"Why do you say I am lazy ,in fact ,I didn't do anything."
Nonsense(废话)?Yes.These sentences look like they make sense ,but they actually express no useful information.They are part of a recent internet sentence﹣making craze(热潮) called "nonsense literature".
"Nonsense literature" was originally invented by internet users to make fun of the empty ,and redundant(累赘的) writing style often used by media and some widely known people.Like any good internet joke ,it became a popular word game.Plenty of "nonsense" has been created. "Every time I don't know what to say ,I don't know what to say." "Listening to your words is like listening to words."
Some even said that famous writers like Lu Xun used the style.For example ,they said ,Lu Xun once wrote:There are two trees in my backyard.One is jujube tree ,and the other is also a jujube tree.
Is it true?Not really.Repetition in writing is not necessarily "nonsense literature".Lu Xun's writing on the jujube tree comes from a piece of his prose.If you have read it ,as well as understanding his time of writing ,you'd find these repeated lines are powerful ,showing that the author was frustrated (挫败) because of social reality.
Actually , "nonsense" and " literature" are two incompatible words.Nonsense is silly and useless.It will soon be forgotten.But literature is written work considered to have artistic value.It is a spiritual legacy worth passing down.
Internet crazes like "nonsense literature" might make you laugh for a while.But they will soon disappear.Don't throw yourself into it.Read some real literature.It will helps us stop talking nonsense.
根据上面短文的内容回答问题(每个小题答案不超过6个单词)。

(2)Who was "Nonsense literature" originally invented by?
(3)Where does Lu Xun's writing on the jujube trees come from?
(4)How did Lu Xun feel when he wrote the sentence about jujube tress?
(5)What can you do to help yourselves stop talking nonsense?

Growing passion
There is much need for music education among her students and their parents ,as the benefits ( 益处) of art education have become more widely recognized ,according to Lin ,who was also impressed by Gong Linna's passion for music. "As a famous singer ,she enjoys sharing her knowledge about music and helping us to improve our singing skills ," says Lin.
Gong Linna ,who performed the song Tan Te ,or Disturbed 10 year ago.The song means a lot to Gong.Written by her German husband ,songwriter Robert Zollitsch ,who is also known as Lao Luo in China ,the song caught people's attention when it was put online in 2010.Her powerful voice ,wide vocal range and solid singing technique made Gong famous on the Internet.
Gong started to sing at the age of 5.She was born and grew up in Guiyang ,capital of Southwest China's Guizhou province.With Guiyang being home to many ethnic groups ,Gong would often listen to their folk songs and imitate their dances.It was probably that early exposure that helped shape her special voice and style.
She studied folk music at the China Conservatory of Music in Beijing at 16 ,and she held her first solo concert in 1999.She performed with the China National Traditional Orchestra (管弦乐队) ,one of the most prestigious (有声誉的 ) traditional music orchestras in the country.In 2000 ,she won the first prize in a Chinese national singing competition and gradually became a popular singer.
After marrying Zollitsch ,Gong has devoted her life to exploring "new Chinese art music" ,which aims ( 目 的是) at keeping the essence (精华) of traditional Chinese folk music in new forms.The couple has put songs based on Chinese poems that describe the 24 solar terms ,a traditional Chinese calendar that summarizes different seasonal phenomena.
Gong's future plan includes organizing more training programs for music teachers ,especially those who teach students with special needs. "I am looking forward to seeing the music teachers' students perform the songs.That's the way whose Chinese songs are passed on ," says Gong.

11.On Dec 25 ,the cartoon film Soul (《心灵奇旅》) was on in Chinese mainland theatres.Disney and Pixar gave fans a musical feast as a gift.
Soul tells the story of middle school music teacher Joe Gardner ,who has wanted nothing more than to be a musician.One day ,he gets the chance after impressing some jazz musicians at a club.But before he can get a big break ,an accident takes his life ,causing his soul to be sent to the Great Beyond.Gardner manages to run away to the Great Before﹣a fantastic place where new souls get their personalities and interests before they go to Earth.Here Gardner meets a soul ,22 ,who he tries to make believe the beauty of living.
The film is about "a soul who doesn't want to live meets a soul who doesn't want to die ," said the director Peter Doctor.The film has a 98 percent good review from those who have seen it.
With the themes of music dream and death ,Soul has a close relationship with the 2017 Pixar film ,Coco.The film is very funny and makes people think a lot.
Gardner and 22's journey ,the characters they meet and the discoveries they make along the way all lead to an important lesson about life.As co﹣director Kemp Powers said: "the people who achieve their dreams aren't only ones whose lives have value."

12.Remembering architecture(建筑)is often the quickest way to find a place.If someone mentions Paris or Hong Kong ,you may picture the Louvre Museum (卢浮宫) or the Bank of China Tower (中银大厦) ,since either is one of these cities' beautiful buildings.But do you know the man behind them?He was leoh Ming Pei ,one of the world's best﹣known architects.Sadly ,the great man died in May ,2019 ,at the age of 102.
Pei was famous for his special design style.He could always bring together opposite ideas into each design﹣East and West ,ancient and modern ,natural and manmade.This may come from his growth background.Born and raised in China ,he went to America to study architecture at 18.
Pei tried to include local and historical ideas in his designs.When designing the Suzhou Museum in the 2000s ,he got ideas from the city's classical gardens.Instead of designing a tall building ,Pei built small halls with traditional white walls and black roofs ,in the style of other gardens ,but the glass and straight lines of the roof add something modern to the museum.
Pei also thought that light was important in making a building lively.He cared a lot about the sunlight in his designs.The glass pyramid (玻璃金字塔) of the Louvre Museum in Paris is a good example.It works as a huge window and succeeds in letting sunlight into the museum.Today many people visit the Louvre and take photos of the pyramid.
What Pei valued most in architecture was that his buildings could "stand the test of time".If you have the chance ,do visit Pei's works!

13.What do you want to be when you grow up?Would you rather be a scientist or an artist?If you have brothers or sisters ,the order in which you were born may influence your choice of jobs.
A group of British scientists studied 500 people from 11 different career groups.They found that older children are more likely(易于) to become astronauts and scientists.NASA astronaut Neil Armstrong and British scientist Stephen Hawking are both the oldest children in their families.
That's probably because parents usually treat older children more strictly than younger children.This gives them a more disciplined (遵守纪律的) personality.
The scientists also found that middle children are 30 percent more likely to become CEOs than their brothers and sisters.
The scientists said that this could be because middle children need to do more to get attention from their parents.This makes them more competitive ,flexible(灵活变通的) and good at negotiating(谈判).Mark Zuckerberg ,the founder of Facebook and Bill Gates ,former CEO of Microsoft ,are both middle children.
Younger children ,on the other hand ,tend(倾向于) to be the "softest".They get attention by
learning to pay attention to other people's thoughts.This makes them sensitive (敏感的) to others' feelings.
Therefore ,it's easier for younger children to become musicians.German musician Johann.
Sebastian Bach and Austrian composer Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart were both the youngest children in their families.
The study results also suggested that the only children are more likely to become artists.They get full attention from their parents and are freer to develop themselves.This makes them more creative and confident.

14.Let's take a look at a few interesting British inventions during the last century.
DIY glasses
Do you wear glasses?If so ,can you imagine life without them?No!In 1985 ,Joshua Silver ,a professor at Oxford University ,asked himself ,"Could I invent a pair of glasses that can always be useful as my eyesight changes?"He designed two lenses(镜片)that are filled with a special material.You can use syringes(注射器)to put in or take out the material until you can see clearly.However ,since the material was expensive and hard to keep ,the glasses didn't catch people's attention.
Hand﹣powered radio
Trevor Baylis designed a radio that can be powered by hand.He wanted his invention to be cheap so that even poor people could afford it.One didn't have to pay for the battery(电池).The radio was powered by turning a small stick.It won BBC Design Award for Best Product and Best Design in 1996.Unluckily ,fewer and fewer people listen to the radio now ,and the hand﹣powered radio can be rarely seen.
Dyson cleaner
In many homes ,around the world ,you can see vacuum cleaners(吸尘器)that look like spaceships.This is the Dyson vacuum cleaner.You don't need a bag for it and it doesn't get broken.The idea came to Sir James Dyson after be kept having problems with his vacuum cleaner.He made up his mind that he could design a better one.He did it successfully in 1985.Through the years ,Dyson continued studying how to get the vacuum better and more useful as the science developed.The Dyson is now one of the best﹣selling vacuums in the world.
What can we learn from these British inventions?Firstly ,small ideas in our life may lead to great inventions.Secondly ,as time goes by ,if the invention always stays the same ,it won't last for a long time.Have a try and make your own great inventions.

5."If you are not fat ,you must be thin man."
"For every minute of breathing ,60 seconds pass."
"Why do you say I am lazy ,in fact ,I didn't do anything."
Nonsense(废话)?Yes.These sentences look like they make sense ,but they actually express no useful information.They are part of a recent internet sentence﹣making craze(热潮) called "nonsense literature".
"Nonsense literature" was originally invented by internet users to make fun of the empty ,and redundant(累赘的) writing style often used by media and some widely known people.Like any good internet joke ,it became a popular word game.Plenty of "nonsense" has been created. "Every time I don't know what to say ,I don't know what to say." "Listening to your words is like listening to words."
Some even said that famous writers like Lu Xun used the style.For example ,they said ,Lu Xun once wrote:There are two trees in my backyard.One is jujube tree ,and the other is also a jujube tree.
Is it true?Not really.Repetition in writing is not necessarily "nonsense literature".Lu Xun's writing on the jujube tree comes from a piece of his prose.If you have read it ,as well as understanding his time of writing ,you'd find these repeated lines are powerful ,showing that the author was frustrated (挫败) because of social reality.
Actually , "nonsense" and " literature" are two incompatible words.Nonsense is silly and useless.It will soon be forgotten.But literature is written work considered to have artistic value.It is a spiritual legacy worth passing down.
Internet crazes like "nonsense literature" might make you laugh for a while.But they will soon disappear.Don't throw yourself into it.Read some real literature.It will helps us stop talking nonsense.

12.Remembering architecture(建筑)is often the quickest way to find a place.If someone mentions Paris or Hong Kong ,you may picture the Louvre Museum (卢浮宫) or the Bank of China Tower (中银大厦) ,since either is one of these cities' beautiful buildings.But do you know the man behind them?He was leoh Ming Pei ,one of the world's best﹣known architects.Sadly ,the great man died in May ,2019 ,at the age of 102.
Pei was famous for his special design style.He could always bring together opposite ideas into each design﹣East and West ,ancient and modern ,natural and manmade.This may come from his growth background.Born and raised in China ,he went to America to study architecture at 18.
Pei tried to include local and historical ideas in his designs.When designing the Suzhou Museum in the 2000s ,he got ideas from the city's classical gardens.Instead of designing a tall building ,Pei built small halls with traditional white walls and black roofs ,in the style of other gardens ,but the glass and straight lines of the roof add something modern to the museum.
Pei also thought that light was important in making a building lively.He cared a lot about the sunlight in his designs.The glass pyramid (玻璃金字塔) of the Louvre Museum in Paris is a good example.It works as a huge window and succeeds in letting sunlight into the museum.Today many people visit the Louvre and take photos of the pyramid.
What Pei valued most in architecture was that his buildings could "stand the test of time".If you have the chance ,do visit Pei's works!

13.What do you want to be when you grow up?Would you rather be a scientist or an artist?If you have brothers or sisters ,the order in which you were born may influence your choice of jobs.
A group of British scientists studied 500 people from 11 different career groups.They found that older children are more likely(易于) to become astronauts and scientists.NASA astronaut Neil Armstrong and British scientist Stephen Hawking are both the oldest children in their families.
That's probably because parents usually treat older children more strictly than younger children.This gives them a more disciplined (遵守纪律的) personality.
The scientists also found that middle children are 30 percent more likely to become CEOs than their brothers and sisters.
The scientists said that this could be because middle children need to do more to get attention from their parents.This makes them more competitive ,flexible(灵活变通的) and good at negotiating(谈判).Mark Zuckerberg ,the founder of Facebook and Bill Gates ,former CEO of Microsoft ,are both middle children.
Younger children ,on the other hand ,tend(倾向于) to be the "softest".They get attention by
learning to pay attention to other people's thoughts.This makes them sensitive (敏感的) to others' feelings.
Therefore ,it's easier for younger children to become musicians.German musician Johann.
Sebastian Bach and Austrian composer Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart were both the youngest children in their families.
The study results also suggested that the only children are more likely to become artists.They get full attention from their parents and are freer to develop themselves.This makes them more creative and confident.

DIY glasses
Do you wear glasses?If so ,can you imagine life without them?No!In 1985 ,Joshua Silver ,a professor at Oxford University ,asked himself ,"Could I invent a pair of glasses that can always be useful as my eyesight changes?"He designed two lenses(镜片)that are filled with a special material.You can use syringes(注射器)to put in or take out the material until you can see clearly.However ,since the material was expensive and hard to keep ,the glasses didn't catch people's attention.
Hand﹣powered radio
Trevor Baylis designed a radio that can be powered by hand.He wanted his invention to be cheap so that even poor people could afford it.One didn't have to pay for the battery(电池).The radio was powered by turning a small stick.It won BBC Design Award for Best Product and Best Design in 1996.Unluckily ,fewer and fewer people listen to the radio now ,and the hand﹣powered radio can be rarely seen.
Dyson cleaner
In many homes ,around the world ,you can see vacuum cleaners(吸尘器)that look like spaceships.This is the Dyson vacuum cleaner.You don't need a bag for it and it doesn't get broken.The idea came to Sir James Dyson after be kept having problems with his vacuum cleaner.He made up his mind that he could design a better one.He did it successfully in 1985.Through the years ,Dyson continued studying how to get the vacuum better and more useful as the science developed.The Dyson is now one of the best﹣selling vacuums in the world.
