The finale（终场）of the hit show's second season was shown on Feb.7 this year.Wu Yishu,16,who studies at the High School Affiliated to Fudan University in Shanghai, came out on top. In an earlier episode（一集）,Wu wowed the audience when performing in a section entitled "Feihualing". The game's theme was "yue", meaning "moon" or "month" in Chinese. She recited the lines from the Classic of Poetry, the earliest collection of poems in China: “In July, the crickets（蟋蟀）are in the field. In August, they are in the yard. In September they are at the door. In October, they enter and crawl under our beds.”“I really admire her knowledge of poems,” said Huang Zijin,16,a Senior 2 student from Ningbo High School in Zhejiang province. “The first time I saw her wearing traditional Han clothing an TV,I was very impressed by her classical looks. She fulfills all my fantasies for classic Chinese women's talents. What's more, she always appears so calm throughout the show, which is very unusual for her age.”As the old saying goes, “One who is filled with knowledge always behaves with elegance.”“Learning poems isn't about winning or losing. The power of poetry lies in shaping one's view of life and developing one's inner world," said Li Bo, an expert guest at the Chinese Poetry Competitions second season.When it comes to teaching people about poetry, Li Dingguang, the show's academic advisor, suggested that teachers should explain more about the beauty of the poetry from both the aesthetic（审美的）and emotional sides, and guide the students to lose themselves in the poems' rhythmic（有节奏的）and rhyming lines.“Although the amount of ancient Chinese poetry in the textbooks of primary and secondary schools has increased, many students still learn them for exams,” Li Dingguang told C. "Therefore, its important to help students truly appreciate the artistry and fun of poetry."21What's one of the purposes of the TV show Chinese Poetry Competition?ATo entertain people by enjoying Chinese poems.BTo see who can recite the most classic Chinese poems.CTo fulfill people's fantasies for Chinese women's talents.DTo make more people interested in classic Chinese poetry.22From Paragraphs 3 and 4,what can we infer about Wu Yishu?AShe is a talented and elegant Chinese teenager.BShe has learned a large amount of poetry from textbooks.CShe is always calm in the show like other competitors of her age.DShe amazed the audience with the lines from the Classic of Poetry in the finale.23According to Li Bo, why do people learn poetry?ATo gel good marks in examinations. BTo help build up their inner world.CTo win the Chinese Poetry Competition.DTa appreciate the beauty of rhythm and thyme.24What is Li Dingguang's attitude to poetry teaching?ADoubtful. BSupportive. CCritical. DCasual.BAt 23,my career got going. I was midway through a master's degree at the London School of Economics and Political Science and had been hired as a part-time reporter for a finance website. I got a great one-month review and my boss asked if I was interested in staying with the company after graduation.However, balancing graduate studies with work was challenging. To deal with it, I checked my real self at my office door. I came in to work, greeted my colleagues and listened mare than I contributed in each morning meeting. The small team I worked with often seemed busy, so rather than giving ideas that might get turned down, I stayed back.After four months, my bass called me into his office. The meeting was going well until he told me that despite the great work I had produced, the team had held a meeting and decided, "We don't think it's the right fit."I must have looked confused. "You're ambitious, intelligent and will he very successful, "my boas said." But you haven't made enough effort to join the team. You lost the enthusiasm you showed in your interview. That won't work lone term ,and if I could give you one piece of advice, it would be to let your guard down." I couldn't believe that performing well at my job wasn't enough to keep it. But I knew my boss was right. They knew that when they hired me, I had no experience in finance reporting, yet they took a chance on me. In meetings I usually contributed last, after I had heard everyone else's suggestions. I did it to show that I was a listener, but also to hide my fears. They liked the person who walked into the interview, and they didn't respect me when I hid that person from them."Don't leave before you leave. "That advice is essential far women at all stages of our careers. Because we work so hard for success. we don't like to think that we hurt ourselves sometimes. But each of us must change when necessary. In trying to earn a full-time job, I “leaned back” in order not to show too much of myself or my lack of expertise（专门知识）.I learned that the hard way wasn't the way to achieve our goals.25Why was the author offered a job at the company at first?AShe just got her master's degree in finance.BShe greatly impressed her boss in her first month.CShe had quite a lot of experience in finance reporting.DShe showed her special financial talent while working there.26During her next four months at the company, the author .Aperformed well enough to earn the team's respectB.didn't balance her graduate studies with work very wellCwas a good listener and contributed a lat in the meetingsDwas afraid to offer her ideas because of her lack of confidence .27What does the author intend to tell us in the passage?AWe should always keep up our enthusiasm at work. BExpertise and experience are greatly valued in the workplace.CWe should not shy away from sharing our ideas when working in a team.DIt's unwise of women to show themselves off when taking part in teamwork.CAre you sick of going to bed late and waking up tired? Then grab your hiking boots and a tent. A new study suggests that camping in the great outdoors for a couple of days can reset your body clock and help you get more sleep.The body clock is an internal system that tells our bodies when it's time to go to sleep and when it's time to wake up. Scientists track this clock by measuring the amount of melatonin（褪黑激素）circulating in a person's blood at any given time.In a healthy sleeper, melatonin levels rise a few hours before bedtime, stay high through the night, and then settle back down when it's tune to wake up.In our modern society, however, most of us stay up many hours past sunset and would probably sleep in many hours after sunrise if we could. And the trouble is, your melatonin levels may still he high when your alarm clock goes off in the morning, which leads to fatigue. It may also have other health consequences as well, such as diabetes（糖尿病）,overweight and heart disease.Professor Kenneth Wright of the University of Colorado in the US wanted to see if our body clocks can be reset by a short stay in nature. His team recruited（招募）fourteen physically active volunteers in their 20s and 30s.Nine went on a weekend camping trip, while the other five stayed home. At the end of the weekend, the researchers reported that in just two days, the campers' body clocks had shifted so that their melatonin levels began to rise more than an hour earlier than they did before they left on the trip. By contrast, the body clocks of the group that stayed home shifted even later over the course of the weekend. ."This tells us we can reset our clocks fast, "Wright said.Therefore, if you want to change your sleep patterns you could try to increase your exposure to natural light during the day and decrease the amount of artificial light you see at night. And if that doesn't work, here's always camping.28What is the author's main purpose of writing the passage?ATo explain how a lack of sleep is bad for our health.BTo inform us of a possible way to adjust the body clock.CTo analyze how the body clock influences our sleeping habits.DTo explore how the body clock is connected with melatonin levels.29The underlined word “fatigue” in Paragraph 4 probably means " ".Atiredness Bexcitement Crefreshment Dpressure30What did Wright's team discover from their experiment?AThe body clocks of the two groups didn't show much difference.BThe body clocks of those who stayed at home remained the same.CThose staying outdoors reset the clock inside their bodies over a short period.DChanges to the body clock dont necessarily affect melatonin levels in our bodies.31According to the passage, to change our sleeping habit, we'd better .Aset an alarm clock to wake us up on time in the morningBtry to reduce melatonin levels as much as possible at night .Cspend several weeks staying in the open air every now and thenDget exposed to more natural light in the day but less artificial light at nightDWhen people argue about whether coffee is good for health, they're usually thinking of the health of the coffee drinker. Is it good for your heart? Does it increase blood pressure? Does it help you concentrate? However, coffee affects the health of the human population in other ways, too.Traditionally, coffee bushes were planted under the canopy（树荫）of taller trees. However, more and more farmers in Latin America are deforesting the land to grow full sun coffees. At first, this increases production because more coffee bushes can be planted if there aren't any trees. With increased production come increased profits.Unfortunately, deforesting for coffee production immediately decreases the local wildlife habitat, because native birds nest and hide from predators（捕食者）in the tall trees and migrating birds rest there.Furthermore, in the long term, the full-sun method also damages the ecosystem because more chemical fertilizers and pesticides（杀虫剂）are needed to grow the coffee. The fertilizers and pesticides kill insects that eat coffee plant, and then the birds eat the poisoned insects and also die. The chemicals kill or sicken other animals as well, and can even enter the water that people will eventually drink.Fortunately, farmers in Central and South America are beginning to grow more coffee bushes in the shade. We can support these farmers by buying coffee with such labels as" shade-grown "and" bird-friendly". Sure, these varieties might cost a little more. But we're paying for the health of the birds, the land, ourselves, and the planet. I think it's worth it.32Which opinion does the author agree with?APeople should buy full-sun coffee.BShade-grown coffee should be supported.CFarmers should change the places to grow coffee.DPesticides should be forbidden in coffee planting.33Compared with the traditional method, what advantage does the full-sun method have?AIt can protect the ecosystem.BIt can promote people's health.CIt can provide mare nests for birds.DIt can increase the production of coffee.34How do farmers get more land to grow full-sun coffee?AThey cut down trees.BThey move to other countries.CThey turn grassland into farmland.DThey buy more land from other farmers.35What can we learn from the passage?AIt is quite worthwhile to buy shade-grown coffee at any cost.BFarmers all have realized the importance of protecting the environment now.CSouth American farmers are taking action to plant coffee in the traditional way.DThe full-sun method does good to the health of human beings in the long run.笫二节（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，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。选项中有两项为多余选项。What does travel consist of?
