This event takes place in the USA.C. This is the biggest music party in 2018 in USA.D. People can enjoy the party at night.BOutside, it's a cold winter day. Inside a large shopping center, people are hanging around. But then, without warning, a pop song starts to play loudly. A teenager boy walks lazily to the center of the open space, and dances crazily to the music. He's joined by two of his friends, then some of the old people. Some more than sixty people are dancing to the music. At first, onlookers are baffled, then they start smiling and clapping. They now know what they're seeing: a flash mob (快闪).According to Wikipedia, the term "flash mob" was created by Bill Wasik, an editor at Harper's Magazine, in 2003. Within a year, the phrase had entered the Concise Oxford English Dictionary. Since then, many flash mobs have been carried out around the world, in almost every kind of public(公共的；公众的) space imaginable! Each flash mob has its own style, but most flash mobs follow a similar plan. Often, the organizers search for willing participants(参与者) using social media(媒体). Instructions and dance moves are given through email or video download. There are usually several rehearsals (排练) before the big day.While it's happening, a few lucky passers-by watch it live(现场). Most people who watch it, however, will see it later online. Some of the most popular flash mobs on YouTube have been watched more than ten million times. A famous example is MP3 Experiment Eight, a flash mob that took place in New York City in July 2011 with over 3,500 participants. This event was different from normal flash mobs in that much of it was completely silent and there were no rehearsals.Flash mobs provide the participants, onlookers and online viewers with a lot of enjoyment and pleasure. For this reason alone, they're a modern, popular art form that should be celebrated.( )61. The underlined word"hailed in Paragraph I means _ in Chinese.A. 激动的B. 困感的 C. 高兴的D. 陌生的( )62. The writer mentions the Concise Oxford English Dictionary to _.A. show the great importance of "flash mob"B. compare it with WikipediaC. explain the meaning of "flash mob”D. show the fast development of "flash mob”( )63. What is special about MP3 Experiment Eight?A. It was played onlineB. It was the earliest flash mobC. It was played without sound.D. It was practiced many times before its act.( )64. Which of the following statements is right?A. The term "flash mob" was created by Bill Wasik in 2013.B. Flash mobs are carried out in the public place.C. Most people can watch live flash mobs.D. Flash mobs all take place inside the large shopping centers.( )65. According to the writer, _.A. "flash mobs" are an popular formB. each "flash mob" needs at least 60 participantsC. "flash mobs " are all organized according to Bill Wasik's plansD. "flash mobs"bring all the people a lot of pleasureCWe often reach a point in our life when we should be ready for change that will help us unlock our self-improvement(改进，提升) power(力量). However, there's always something staring at us right under our nose but we don't see it. The only time we think of unlocking our self-improvement power is when everything gets worst. When do we realize that we need to change diets(饮食)? When none of our shirts and jeans would fit us. When do we stop eating candies and chocolates? When all of our teeth have fallen off. When do we realize that we need to stop smoking? When our lungs have gone bad. We see the warning signs and signals when things get rough and difficult. The only time most of us ever learn about unlocking our self-improvement power is when the whole world is falling apart. We think and feel this way because it is not easy to change, but change becomes more painful when we ignore it. Change will happen, like it or hate it. At one point or another. we are all going to finally unlock our self-improvement power not because the world says so. But because we realize it's for our own good.Happy people don't just accept change. They embrace (拥抱) it. Unlocking our self-improvement power means unlocking ourselves out of the box of thought that is just the way we are. It is such a poor excuse for people who fear change.Jane always tells everyone that she doesn't have the courage(勇气) to be around groups of people. She heard her family tell the same things about her to other people. Over the years, that is what Jane has believed. Every time a great crowd come, she steps back and locks herself up in a room. Jane not only believes in her story, but lives it!Self-improvement may not be everybody's favorite word, but if we look at things in a different way, we might have greater chances of enjoying the whole process instead of counting the days until we are fully improved. Three sessions in a week at the gym would result in a healthier life. Reading books every day would build up knowledge. And only when we are enjoying the whole process of unlocking our self-improvement power will we realize that we're beginning to take things light and become happy.( )66. The writer mentions the three questions in Paragraph 2 to show that _.A. life is a long journey full of ups and downsB. we are responsible(负责的) for the problems we meetC. we learn our lessons when we experience painD. life fails us when we get into the wrong way( )67. The underlined word “ignore” in Paragraph 3 means _ in Chinese.A. 解决B. 经历C. 坚持D. 忽视( )68. What is the key to solving Jane's problem?A. She needs to remember why she started.B. She has to know how to get on with people.C. She has to realize she is not what she is in her story.D. She needs to talk with her parents.( )69. The writer probably agrees that _.A. the world tells us how to improve ourselves.B. people change when they find it easy to do that.C. welcoming change in life is a drive to become better.D. enjoying the process(过程) of self-improvement makes life easier.( )70. Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?A. Is it important to take things light?B. To hold on to the last moment or to give up?C. Is it necessary to embrace challenges?D. To free ourselves out of the box or to stay in it?第II卷(非选择题 共35分)五、词与短语选择填空(共5小题，每小题2分，满分10分)仔细阅读下面五个句子，然后用下
