UNESCO(United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization) recently set April 30 as a day to raise awareness of jazz music, its significance, and its potential as a unifying voice across cultures.Despite the celebrations, though, in the US the jazz audience continues to shrink and grow older, and the music has failed to connect with younger generations. Its Jason Morans job to help change_that. As the Kennedy Centers artistic adviser for jazz, Moran hopes to widen the audience for jazz, make the music more accessible, and preserve its history and culture.“Jazz seems like its not really a part of the American appetite.” Moran tells National Public Radios reporter Neal Conan. “What Im hoping to accomplish is that my generation and younger start to reconsider and understand that jazz is not black and white anymore. Its actually color, and its actually digital.”Moran says one of the problems with jazz today is that the entertainment aspect of the music has been lost. “The music cant be presented today the way it was in 1908 or 1958. It has to continue to move, because the way the world works is not the same.” says Moran.Last year, Moran worked on a project that arranged Fats Wallers music for a dance party. “Just to kind of put it back in the mind that Waller is dance music as much as it is concert music，” says Moran. “For me, its the recontextualization.In music, where does the emotion lie? Are we, as humans, gaining any insight(感悟) on how to talk about ourselves and how something as abstract as a Charlie Parker record gets us into a dialogue about our emotions and our thoughts? Sometimes we lose sight that the music has a wider context，” says Moran. “So I want to continue those dialogues. Those are the things I want to foster.”()26. What is the purpose of UNESCO to set April 30 as International Jazz Day?A. To emphasize the significance of jazz. B. To protect musical diversity.C. To remember the birth of jazz. D. To encourage people to study music.()27. What does the underlined word “that” in Paragraph 3 refer to?A. The production of jazz growing faster. B. Jazz losing its appeal for the young.C. The jazz audience becoming larger. D. Jazz becoming more accessible.BWisconsin has long been home to incredibly successful research and innovation thanks to our famous academic research institutions and some of the brightest scientific minds. From discovering how Vitamin D can best be absorbed, to unlocking the potential of stem cells, Wisconsin has pioneered remarkable breakthroughs in science that have improved health, saved lives and created jobs. These scientific breakthroughs have not only led to lifesaving medical technologies but also have fostered(培育) a strong power in Wisconsin economy.Across America, groundbreaking research supported by the National Institutes of Health(NIH) alone adds millions of dollars to our economy every year. In fact, NIH funding generated an estimated $58 billion in economic output nationwide in 2014. NIH funding spurs economic growth by supporting jobs in research and by generating biomedical innovations that are turned into new products. NIHsupported innovations also influence improvements in health that can bolster the economy, improve productivity, and reduce illness and disability at home and across the globe. But, budget cuts and inadequate funding for NIH in the past decade have put both medical innovation and our next generation of researchers at risk.Today, too many of our talented young scientists are deciding to do something else, or are leaving the country to pursue their research. Simply put, scientific and medical innovation depends on our ability to foster, support and invest in these new researchers.That is why I have worked across party lines with Senator Susan Collins of Maine and introduced the Next Generation(NextGen) Researchers Act. Our act builds opportunities for new researchers, helps address the debt burden that young scientists face today, and invests in the future of research, science, and innovation. This commonsense proposal would create the “Next Generation Researchers Initiative” within the NIH Office of the Director to coordinate(协调) all current and new NIH policies. The legislation(立法) also directs the NIH to consider recommendations from a National Academy of Sciences(NAS) comprehensive study and report on fostering the next generation of researchers.Finally, we must demonstrate a commitment to our future scientists who, like so many of their peers pursuing other fields, are struggling with crushing student loan debt. Our plan would also increase the amount of loans that can be forgiven through the NIHs loan repayment programs to better account for the current debt load of new scientists. Higher education should be a path to prosperity, not suffocating debt, and this provision not only helps make higher education more affordable, but can help give new researchers a fair shot at pursuing their dreams.The NextGen Researchers Act will help to empower our next generation of researchers from Maine to Wisconsin, and across our country, with the resources they need to continue to lead the world in groundbreaking biomedical research and development. Im proud to have earned the support of the University of WisconsinMadison, the Medical College of Wisconsin, and many others, for my bipartisan work supporting Wisconsins leadership in science, research and innovation.At a time when Americas young researchers are facing the worst funding in decades, our best and brightest minds deserve to know that our country stands with them and is committed to building a stronger future.()28. Why does the author talk about Wisconsin in the first paragraph?A. To explain why some brightest scientific minds are rewarded for making contributions.B. To indicate Wisconsin has made great breakthroughs without the support of NIH.C. To illustrate that Wisconsin takes a lead in scientific breakthroughs and deserves his support.D. To distinguish Wisconsins achievements in science and innovation from the other states.()29. The following are all the ways of NIH promoting Americas economic growth EXCEPT _.A. supporting research jobs B. encouraging medical innovationsC. improving health and productivity D. handling budget cuts()30. According to the passage, the introduction of the NextGen Researchers Act is intended to _.A. sing high praise for the work coordinating all current and new NIH policiesB. support and invest in young researchers involved in medical innovationC. forgive NIHs current loan debt to make higher education more affordableD. consider suggestions from NAS comprehensive study and report四、 任务型阅读The steady increase in women having babies later in life is undeniable. Firsttime mothers are more likely to be 35 or older than their counterparts(对应者) from two decades ago, according to the Pew Research Center. While the number of firsttime moms between ages 20 and 24 falls, the number of births to women in their 30s and 40s keeps growing. In addition, recent wideranging studies have found significant longterm benefits in waiting to have babies. These benefits counterbalance(抵消) some worries about being an older mother and the effects it may have on children.Longevity for women who waitA study in the journal Menopause examined older mothers life expectancy(寿命) and found that women who had their last child after the age of 33 are more likely to live to 95. In fact, researchers reported that these women had twice the chance of living to 95 or older than those who had their last child before their 30th birthday. The news for women having babies after 40 is equally promising.Boosted brainpower for older mothersIts also possible that later pregnancies(怀孕) protect against cognitive decline. Researchers at the University of Southern California found that women have better brainpower if they have their last baby after age 35. The researchers looked at the pregnancy history of a group of 830 women ages 41 to 92. Their research provides strong evidence of a positive association between later age at last pregnancy and latelife cognition.Increased income over timeTheres a measurable link between the age you have your first child and income gains and losses. Women who start their families when they are older are likely to increase their earning potential.Educational and emotional support for childrenOlder parents who are less stressed about income or job security tend to be more patient and can spend more time with their children. Parents who have more secondary education can also offer more specific stimulation to their children, which can be helpful for development. An investigation of 8 to 12yearolds explored how specific parenting beliefs and behaviorssuch as reading, constructive play and emotional supportaffected child development. The research published in the Journal of Family Psychology found that parent education and income positively affect child achievement.31. _ 32. _ 33._ 34. _ 35. _36. _37. _38. _39. _ 40. _五、 书面表达请仔细阅读以下材料，并按照要求用英语写一篇150词左右的文章。THE COMPOUND surrounding Dayun Temple in Shangluo, Northwest Chinas Shaanxi Province, has been encroached(侵犯) upon by the urban regeneration process. This has caused damage to several relics including an ancient mulberry tree and four houses built during the Ming Dynasty(13681644). Beijing News commented on Saturday.The construction work endangering a cultural and historical site on the provincial cultural heritage protection list stopped when the Shangluo museum published an open letter calling for official involvement. However, damage had already been done to the temple, which has a history of more than 600 years. An old tree and a decorated archway were relocated and four houses torn down. There are also cracks in the walls and gates.UNITED NATIONS, Sept.27(Xinhua)Two key UN agencies and some countries on Sunday joined Interpol(国际刑警) to launch a major new program to strengthen the protection of cultural heritage targeted by terrorists and illegal sales against a background of a sharp rise of terrorist attacks and destruction of cultural heritage in armed conflict.“Culture is on the frontline of conflict we must place it at the heart of peacebuilding，” said UNESCO DirectorGeneral Irina Bokova.For his part, the executive director of UNODC, Yury Fedotov, said it was important to address sales and the destruction of cultural property as “crimes that strike at the key of our civilization and heritage
