13、own, many of us have entertained the idea of knowing more about the world. Learning a foreign language is a good choice. Here are a few examples, in order of time it takes people to learn them.Latin languages(about 600 hours)The popular Latin languagesItalian, French, Spanish and Portuguese require

14、about 600 hours to learn. Of these, Spanish and Italian are the easiest for English speakers to learn. They are followed by Portuguese and finally French.Latin languages share many words with English. However, those shared words look or sound similar, but have different meanings over time.Greek (110

15、0 hours)Modern Greek is maybe the easiest language to learn that uses a different alphabet(字母表). It is also a language that has contributed many words to English. Indeed, the president of Greece once gave two speeches at an international meeting that included just Greek loan words(外来词) as well as th

16、e unavoidable basic English.Japanese (2200 hours)Counting objects in Japanese depends on whether they are long and thin(like “roads”), (small and roundlike “apples”), thin and flat (like “sheets of paper”), and hundreds more examples.What Japanese you speak also depends on your gender（性别）. Theres a

17、“rough” language for men and a more “ladylike” language for women, but you must understand both.Chinese(2200 hours)Each Chinese written word is hardly understandable when spoken between a Mandarin(普通话)speaker in Beijing and a Cantonese speaker in Guangdong.

It spreads from one p

21、erson to another quickly. When someone who has the flu coughs or sneezes, little droplets from their lung(肺) spread out into the air. Anyone nearby can get sick. Even a person who touches something with the virus and then touches his or her mouth, eyes, or nose, can become infected(感染).The outbreak

22、of the 1918 influenza infected about 500 million people worldwide. It killed from 20 million to 50 million people. It was first seen in Europe, the United States, and parts of Asia. It then spread quickly around the world. Many people who became sick were young, healthy adults. At the time, no treat

23、ments worked in the prevention of the spread of the killer flu. People were ordered to wear masks. Schools, theaters and other public places were closed.When the first wave(波)in the spring of 1918 hit, it didnt seem serious. People who were infected felt the usual flu symptoms(症状), which are chills,

24、 fevers, and feeling tired. Those who got sick generally got better after several days. Not many died. However, a second, highly contagious(传染的)wave of influenza appeared in the fall of that same year. Victims died shortly after they were infected within hours or days. Their skin turned blue and the

25、ir lungs were filled with liquid(液体), making it very difficult to breathe.By the summer of 1919, the flu pandemic(大流行病) came to an end. Sick people had either got well or died. Almost 90 years later, in 2008, researchers announced theyd discovered why the 1918 flu was so deadly. The flu virus inflam

26、ed(使恶化)the lungs, causing them to fill with liquid.Since 1918, there have been several other influenza pandemics, although none has been quite as deadly.26.

29、r influenza pandemic in modern history.C“Whats wrong, Carina?” Collin asked. “Homesick again?”His sister nodded.“Yeah, me too.” Collin sighed(叹息).Their family had moved to the new place nearly four months ago. The new place was housed inside a huge transparent dome(透明的圆屋顶). It still didnt feel like

30、home.“I miss my friends,” Carina said sadly. “And green grass and swimming, and everything. I even miss the sound of rain on the roof(屋顶).”“Worst of all,” Carina continued, “my birthday is in two days, and I dont think Mom and Dad are planning anything special. Theyre too busy.”“Shes probably right,

31、” thought Collin. Life here was very busy for scientists like their parents. He doubted if they had time to plan a party. And how could they anyway? Things such as balloons and birthday candles didnt exist here. They didnt even have enough materials to make a cake.“Dont worry.” Collin put an arm aro

32、und Carinas shoulder.Collin walked toward the agricultural center, where his mom worked. He found her taking notes on some tall tube-like plants.“What are those?” he asked.“Bamboo plants,” said Mom. “Theyre strong and grow fast. They make good building materials.”“May I have a piece?”“Sure.” Mom han

33、ded one to him and made a note on her notebook.The next day, Collin made tiny holes into the piece of bamboo and put small nails(钉子)into each hole. He poured a handful of pebbles(鹅卵石) inside and covered the open ends.Collin held the bamboo piece carefully as he hurried home. He hid it behind his bac

34、k and opened the front door. To his surprise, Mom and Dad were home early from work. Mom was carrying something that looked like a cake.He looked closer and realized Mom had made a cake with dried apples and cinnamon(肉桂皮) sugar. A real treat, on the Moon.Collin handed his sister the bamboo rod. “Hap

35、py birthday!”“What is it?” Carina asked, looking at it curiously.“A rain stick,” said Collin. “Whenever you turn it over, the pebbles fall around the nails and it sounds like rain.”Carina turned the stick, and the room was filled with a sound like rain drumming on a roof.“Its Moon Rain!” she said. “

36、It makes me feel like Im home.” She smiled at Collin and turned the rain stick over again.29. What may be the best title of this passage?A. Bamboo PlantsB. Moon RainC. Homesick Again!D. United Family30. What can we know from the passage?A. This passage is part of a science fiction written for scient

38、brave.B. Caring and creative.C. Generous and intellectual.D. Romantic and popular.DLooking at art should be like walking in the countryside. You may not know exactly where you are, what bird is making that strange sound, or what the hill ahead of you is called, but thats part of the fun of it. You d

39、ont need to know these things to feel the beauty of nature.Of course, if you do know your birds, trees and local history, a walk can be more attractive. Yet such knowledge comes slowly. It is picked up through experience. A true knowledge of nature cannot just be given to you through an app on your

40、phone. Imagine pointing your phone at the hill and getting plenty of information on screen. Would that enrich your dreamy walk or -在-此-卷-上-答-题-无-效-ruin(毁灭) it?毕业学校_ 姓名_ 考生证号_ _ _Braggarts enjoy an app that allows them to show off their knowledge, for example, about baroque(巴洛克风格的) paintings. In fact

41、, apps in museums try to provide on-screen art history at once just to encourage people to read their phones instead of looking at paintings.It is a mistaken idea that you need to be spoon-fed(灌输) amazing facts about a work of art in order to appreciate(欣赏) it. Our first experience of a work of art

42、should be raw(自然状态的), unguided, and a bit puzzling, like following a path in the woods. Later, you might choose to do some personal research into the work. It can further increase your enjoyment and appreciation for it. Yet it is best done when youre away from the art itself, so that even when you r

43、eturn, the work still feels fresh.Anyone who thinks knowing some dates and details makes you better understand a work of art is wrong. We all need to put aside our screens and our supposed knowledge when we look at art. Let the paintings flow in; let your intuitions(直觉) fly off. Art is a journey in

44、the wilderness or it is nothing at all.32. What does the writer mainly want to say?A. Art is best with the help of apps.B. Art is best when hidden in mystery.C.
