Mark your answers on the ANSWER SHEET. （40 points）Text 1As the international demand for narrative（叙事的）film/TV content continues to increase with popular streamingservices like Netflix and others the two questions then come: will the coming generations receive most of their entertainment through visual means rather than through the written word and will such an increase of narrative film/ TV reduce the importance of reading?Growing examples of this trend include the diminishment（减少）of fiction in the common core （核心的）curriculum, the everrising culture of computer games, the wave of streaming services of wide international reach, and movies filled with special effects made for children and teenagers. Nor must we ignore the economic dangers that lie ahead for the written word. The narrative film industry is a moneymaker that dwarfs（使相形见细）the publishing industry.The other underlying question, of course, is “does it really matter if the written word bows to the world of fllm/TV?” From my point of view, any diminishment of fiction delivered by words is a loss for mankind.There is no greater human feature than the imagination. It lies at the very soul of the human species. It is the brain's most powerful engine. It is the essential muscle of life and like all muscles it must be exercised and strengthened.Writing and reading are the principal tools that inspire, create and empower our imagination. Anything that diminishes that power is the enemy of mankind.It should be known that I am not opposed to new media and technological advances. Instead, I have always felt it necessary to adapt to advancing technology. In fact, a number of my novels are in various stages of development for film, TV, and live stage productions. My hope is that the written word will only stand to be complemented（补充）by its visualcounterparts（对应物）,not pushed to the edge of extinction.Of course, there are those who will present arguments for the superiority of the moving image over the written word. Each has its place. My argument is for finding the right balance between it and the moving image.1、In what way does narrative film/TV embarrass the written word?A. Economic benefitsB. International reachC. Cultural influenceD. Educational importance2、Why does the author value the role of the written word?A. It strengthens our muscles.B. It helps sharpen imagination.C. It distinguishes man from each other.D. It paves the way for narrative film/TV.3、What is the author's attitude towards technology?A. CautiousC. Positive4、Whafs the author concerned about?A. The fate of reading.C. The impact of the written word.B. SkepticalD. CriticalB. The extinction of fiction.D. The future of the moving image.Text 2The Golden Egg“I don't want to write a story about girls! I don't know anything about girls J Louisa May Alcott told her publisher, Mr. Niles. But she was desperate for money. She seemed to be the only one in her family who could make money. Niles had asked her to write about something she knew, instead of the romantic adventure stories she had been writing. "So I plod away,“ Alcott wrote/9 though I don't enjoy this sort of thing." It was 1867, and the horrible Civil War was over. Now Alcott could turn her energy to making money.Alcott wrote a simple story of life in her family, their pillow fights on Saturday nights and the amateur（业余的）plays they performed.Our experiences may prove interesting, though I doubt it.”（Good joke,“ she wrote years later.） Her book described her days growing up with four sisters in a family that had no money. She sketched a loving mother who took time to be interested in each child, and she told of the death of a beloved sister. She portrayed her family and friends in her book Little Women, Finally, in July of 1868, she finished writing. With a sigh and a headache, she sent off all 102 handwritten pages of her book.Niles thought the book was dull, and so did Alcott. But when she received her copies of the book, Alcott thought it seemed better than expected. "Not a bit sensational,she wrote, " but simple and true. We really lived most of it Niles asked some girls to read Little Women, and they loved it. If the girls liked it, Alcott was satisfied.In three months, all the copies of Little Women had sold. It was already time to print more books! Niles thought he could sell three or four hundred more copies." An honest publisher and a lucky author made a dull book into a golden egg for an ugly duckling,“ Alcott wrote in 1885. Later, with a great sigh of relief, she was able to write, "Paid off all the debts! Now I feel that 1 could die in peace. If my head holds out, I'll do all I once hoped to do.” 1、Which of the following would be used to describe Alcott's book?A. Funny . B. Boring.C. Magic. D. Skillful.2、In which order did the following happen?a. Alcott began writing Little Womenb. Niles asked Alcott to write about girlsc. Alcott wrote romantic adventure storiesd.

There is an old phrase “calm before the storm”,often used in a situationa quiet period just before a great activity or. excitement. According to our own experience, we know there is actually calm before the storm. But what causes this calm? And is it always calm before the storm? Let's hear what scientists have to say.A period ofcalm happens in a particular kind of storm, the simplest kind of storm-a single-cell thunderstorm. In this type of thunderstorm, there is usually only one main updraft, which is warm, damp air and drawn from places near the ground. Storms need warm and damp air as fuel, so they typically draw that air in from surrounding environment. Storms can draw in the air that fit their need from all directionseven from the direction in which the storm is traveling.As the warm, damp air is pulled into a storm system, it leaves a low-pressure vacuum （真 空）coming after. The rising air meets the cold dry air that has already existed in the storm clouds, thus the temperature of the warm, damp air drops, and the water vapour （水蒸汽）in it changes into tiny drops that are a precondition of rain. These drops accumulate and build on larger particles like dust, until they grow large enough to form raindrops.This warm, damp air keeps moving upwards, but it becomes cooler and drier during its trip through cloud. When it reaches the top of the cloud, the air gets spit out （被挤出）at the top. This air is sent rolling out over the big thunderclouds. From there, the air goes down. Warm and dry air is relatively stable, and once it covers a region, that air, in turn, causes the calm before a storm.Most thunderstorms, though, don't start with calm. That's because most are actually groups of storms with complex wind patterns. There*s so much air moving up and down storm groups that the calm before the storm never happens. Instead, before the storm,it might be really windy!1、Which best fits the description of a particular kind of storm?A. A thunderstorm with a single shape.B. A thunderstorm without strong winds.C. A storm with air drawn from every directi on.D. A storm fueled by moving air from the ground.2、What does the underlined word "it" in Paragraph 3 refer to?A. Cold and dry air.B. Warm and dry air.C. Cold and damp air.D. Warm and damp air.3、Which does the writer most likely agree to?A. Presence of the calm relies on stable air.B. Not all thunderstorms start with the calm.C. The drier the air is, the bigger the storm will be.D. Storm happens without air moving up and down.4、What is the passage mainly about?A. Causes and effects of a heavy storm.B. A brief description of a peaceful storm.C. A personal experience of a heavy storm.D. An explanation of the calm before a storm.Text 4Marchi, 2019Dear ResidentsRE.
