It has transformed the industrial city of Bilbao into a travelers desired destination. The beautiful architecture of the museum has provided a dramatic background for movies and commercials.The Louvre in Paris，FranceProbably the most famous Louvre also holds the most famous painting in the world，the “Mona Lisa” by Leonardo da Vinci. Crowds can be found any day surrounding the small，but mysterious painting of the smiling woman. But，the Louvre is much more than a home to the “Mona Lisa”. The Louvre is visited by more people each year than any other museum in the world.The Barnes Foundation in Philadelphia，AmericaJust opened in its new downtown location in 2012，the Barnes Foundation is “unique” in that it is a completely reproduced display from one mans private collection. Dr. Albert C. Barnes started collecting art in the early 20th century and collected，among others，the largest number of original Renoir paintings in the world.The Uffizi Gallery in Florence，ItalyWalking on the marbled floors feels like stepping back in time. The building itself is a beautiful palacelike structure with frescoes(湿壁画) decorating the ceilings and walls. Viewers are bowled over(印象深刻) by the works by Botticelli，such as “The Birth of Venus”. Classic artworks from nearly 1，000 years ago describe religious events of the time.1. Which of the following is the most popular?A. The Louvre.B. The Guggenheim Museum Bilbao.C.

To know more about it, scientists at Syracuse University in New York recently did a research and came up with some surprising findings.People who post selfies and use editing software to make themselves look better show behavior connected to narcissism(自恋), the researchers said. Makana Chock, a professor from Syracuse University, said because social media is mostly used by people to share unimportant information about their lives, it is a good place for people to “work towards satisfying their own vanity.” Those “likes” under their Facebook selfies make them feel good.Besides, people who post group selfies show a need for popularity and a need to belong to a group, the research found. Some people feel “peer(同伴) pressure” to post selfies and some follow the popular belief that if there is no picture of an event or experience, it did not really happen. “Anyway, it shouldnt be seen as negative. People get sense of satisfaction especially when they get likes. And it does no harm,” Chock said.Other findings from the study include: There are no major differences on how often men and women post selfies and how often they use editing software. But men who post selfies showed more of a need to be seen as popular than women who posted selfies.Chock said posting selfies on social media is not all that different from what people have done for many years. On trips and special events, our parents and grandparents used cameras instead of phones to take photos. They would bring back photos to show friends and family. You had no choice but to look at them. You probably commented about how nice everyone in the photos looked, especially children and the person showing the photos. They were happy to hear your comments. That was the old way of “clicking like”. On social media, however, people can decide not to look at photos - even if they click “like”.4. What is the research mainly about?A. The ways of making people look better in selfies.B. The reasons for people posting selfies on social media.C. The differences between men and women in posting selfies.D. The connections between posting selfies and mental health.5. What does the word “vanity” in paragraph 2 probably mean?A. A deep desire to know about something.B. A special need to be more popular.C. Too much pride in ones own appearance.D. Strong determination to improve oneself.6. What is Chocks attitude towards selfie posting?A. Ambiguous.B. Cautious.C. Disapproving.D. Supportive.7. From the last paragraph, we know that the older generations showed their photos to friends and family _.A. to win praise from viewersB. to show off their camerasC. to improve relationshipsD. to share good moments【文章大意】这是一篇夹叙夹议的文章。文章主要讲了人们喜欢在社交媒体上发布自己的自拍。为了了解更多，纽约Syracuse University大学的科学家们最近做了一项研究，并得出了一些令人惊讶的发现。4.B 【解析】推理判断题。答案定位在最后一段You probably commented about how nice everyone in the photos looked, especially children and the person showing the photos. They were happy to hear your comments. That was the old way of “clicking like”. On social media, however, people can decide not to look at photos - even if they click “like”. 这说明老一辈人展示他们的照片是希望得到赞许，由此推断出这次研究主要是关于人们在社交媒体上发布自拍的原因，故选B。5.C 【解析】词义猜测题。下文Those “likes” under their Facebook selfies make them feel good.意思是脸书自拍下面的“赞”让他们感觉很好。由此可知，上文it is a good place for people to “work towards satisfying their own vanity.”意思是这是一个让人们“努力满足自己虚荣心”的好地方。“vanity”意思是虚荣心，故选C。6.D 【解析】推理判断题。答案定位在最后一段Chock said posting selfies on social media is not all that different from what people have done for many years.（Chock说，在社交媒体上发布自拍照与人们多年来的做法并没有太大不同。）由此推断出，Chock对发布自拍照持支持态度。A. Ambiguous. 模糊不清的；B. Cautious. 谨慎的；C. Disapproving. 反对的；D. Supportive.支持的，故选D。7.A 【解析】细节理解题。答案定位在最后一段They were happy to hear your comments.（他们很高兴听到你的评论。）由此可知从最后一段，我们知道老一辈人把他们的照片展示给朋友和家人，以赢得观众的赞扬，故选A。CAttending college can be expensive, and applying to college can be costly as well. With todays college application fees averaging around $ 80, you can expect to spend hundreds of dollars on college before you are even accepted into a school.One of the easiest ways to save money on college application fees before you begin applying is to narrow down your list of schools. To save money, try to limit the schools to which you apply to about 2-3 reach schools and 2-3 safety schools.At some schools, being a relative of a graduate can secure you a free application. If you are applying to a school where one of your parents or grandparents is a former graduate, check to see if you re qualified for it.Research the preferred method of applying for each school on your list. Some schools offer free online applications, yet charge a fee for paper submissions. This is because online applications save schools the cost of employing a staff member to physically enter the application information.Several states, such as Michigan and North Carolina, take part in College Application Week, where many schools in the participating states cancel their application fee for the week. Be sure to contact the schools to I j which you are applying to see if they participate in College Application Week and when the program takes place in that state.Apply for early admission. If you have already decided on which college is your top choice, consider applying under an Early Action or Early Decision admission program.

The capital of the country has long been campaigning for sorting and recycling household waste, as part of its environmental drive for sustainable growth, local media reported.The current regulation gives garbage sorting responsibilities to government departments, property management groups and other organizations. It also gives rules for companies, outlining how theyre responsible for waste collection, transportation and treatment. Only individuals are not subject to responsibilities.The long-awaited revision will soon change the situation, “Taking out the trash without sorting it properly will be illegal,” said Sun Xinjun, director of the Beijing Commission of Urban Management. In Shanghai, violators are now fined up to 200 yuan ($30)for trash-sorting violations. The maximum fine in Beijing will not be less than that, he said.The Beijing city government first set out to promote garbage sorting in 2009. Authorities have since called on citizens to sort their household waste into four types-recyclable waste, kitchen trash, dangerous waste and others-and leave it in a corresponding dustbin or trash can. Blue-colored dustbins signify items within are recyclable, green represents kitchen trash, red corresponds to dangerous materials and grey to other waste.To promote the awareness of garbage sorting and expand the base of participants, authorities have employed workers to help residents on the spot. With intelligent devices, those who throw in recyclable waste at given sites will be rewarded with bonus points, which can be used to buy daily goods. At some communities, there are no color-coded dustbins. Instead, a scheduled garbage collection service is offered to help improve the environment. In other communities, workers offer a door-to-door service to collect recyclables or kitchen waste.Beijing Environmental Sanitation Engineering Group has been promoting new garbage sorting facilities such as recycling cabinets and smart kitchen waste trash cans since 2016, Xinhua News Agency reported. Nearly 26,000 metric tons of household waste is generated across Beijing on a daily basis and 29 terminal garbage disposal facilities are working at full capacity. Nearly 9.3 million tons of household waste was processed in the city last year.12. According to the passage, which dustbins should some used coke cans be thrown into?A. Grey-colored dustbins.B. Red-colored dustbins.C. Green-colored dustbins.D. Blue-colored dustbins.13. We can learn from the passage that _.A. new technology has been applied to help deal with garbageB. Beijing carried out a more severe rule on garbage sorting than ShanghaiC. the change of the current regulation has aroused objection among citizensD. the amount of household waste in Beijing is far from something disturbing14. What is the best title for the text?A. How to Sort Garbage in ChinaB. The Current Regulation in BeijingC. Garbage Collection in BeijingD. Waste Recycling Project Counts15. The passage can be sorted as _.A. a book reviewB. a travel brochureC. an environment reportD. a geography essay【语篇解读】本文是一篇说明文，介绍了垃圾分类在北京的实施情况。12. D 【解析】细节理解题。根据倒数第三段中的“Blue-colored dustbins signify items within are recyclable,”可知，蓝色垃圾箱装的是可回收垃圾，而用过的可乐罐属于可回收垃圾，应投入蓝色垃圾箱内，故D项正确。13.A 【解析】细节理解题。根据倒数第二段中的“With intelligent devices, those who throw in recyclable waste at given sites will be rewarded with bonus points”可知，有了智能设备，那些将垃圾投入到指定垃圾箱的市民将获得奖励积分，由此可知，新技术已应用于帮助处理垃圾，故A项正确。14.C 【解析】主题大意题。通读全文，特别是根据第二段中的“Beijing, as a forerunner in environmental protection, has thus been expected to follow suit.”可知，本文主要介绍了垃圾分类在北京的实施情况，故C项正确。15.C 【解析】推理判断题。通读全文可知，本文主要介绍的是垃圾分类在北京的实施情况，这属于环保话题，因此文章可能是一份环境报告，故C项正确。第二节 （共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。How Laughing at Yourself Makes You AttractiveHave you ever embarrassed yourself in public and got laughed at for it ?16.
