1 . 阅读下面短文,在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式

A skull of the dinosaur, named Guemesia ochoai, was discovered in Argentina. Researchers said it likely belongs to a meat-eating, or carnivorous, group of dinosaurs     1     (call) abelisaurs. These dinosaurs walked on two legs and had very short arms, even     2     (short) than those of North America’s Tyrannosaurus rex. The short arms may have forced Guemesia     3     (depend) more on its powerful skull and jaws.

“Guemesia is so different     4     other meat-eating dinosaurs, which allows us to understand that we’re dealing with a     5     (total) new species,” said Agnolin Federico, the lead writer of a study on the dinosaur that was published in the Journal of Vertebrate Paleontology.

The animals existed for a few million years before     6     asteroid (小行星) hit what is now Mexico’s Yucatan peninsula. That event, about 66 millions years ago, led to a series of     7     (disaster) that killed all the dinosaurs and many other animals. In total, about 75 percent of Earth’s species     8     (destroy) as a result of the asteroid.

Scientists believe abelisaurs lived on what is now Africa, South America and India. Several abelisaurs have been dug up in Argentina in the past but almost all of them were in southern Patagonia, far from the site     9     Guemesia was found.

Guemesia takes its name from Argentine independence hero Martin Miguel de Guemes and Javier Ochoa, a museum worker who made the     10     (discover).

3 . When ice cream maker Adrienne Borlongan first experimented with a White Rabbit flavor, she thought it tasted like “cheap vanilla (香草)”. A few weeks after she added it to her Los Angeles shop, Wanderlust Creamery, visitors showed little interest. But when Borlongan posted a photo of an ice cream cone wrapped in White Rabbit-branded paper, word quickly spread on social media.

The candy, first produced in Shanghai in the 1940s, is known for its red-white-and-blue packaging and is beloved by kids all over China. And when Chinese people began to live in other countries, their love for the white, creamy candy went with them.

Soon after Borlongan posted that photo, people were driving to Wanderlust from all over California. Since then, White Rabbit has been the mainstay of Wanderlust’s ice cream lineup and is regularly sold out in their webshop.

But the story of the ice cream is about way more than taste — it’s about the power of nostalgia (怀旧) and eye-catching branding. White Rabbit’s origins date back to a business called the ABC Company, founded in Shanghai in 1943. It was later sold to the state-owned Guan Sheng Yuan Food Group, which owns it to this day.

The mix of colorful wrappers and the sweet milky taste proved a winner. Kids from Beijing to Hong Kong grew up on the sweets, and it also became a national symbol of the country — most famously, US President Richard Nixon was given some when he made his historic visit to China in 1972.

As for the flavor? The creamy consistency (黏稠度) actually comes from milk, and there’s a piece of rice paper between the candy and the wrapper to prevent melting. Over the years, White Rabbit has tried out other flavors, including red bean and peanut. But it’s the first version that has the most nostalgia connected to it.

1. What can we learn about the White Rabbit ice cream?
A.It used to be popular in China.B.It is available online.
C.It is shaped like a white rabbit.D.It was first produced in Shanghai.
2. What does the underlined word “mainstay” in Paragraph 3 mean?
A.Fanciest design.B.Newest brand.
C.Cheapest goods.D.Bestselling product.
3. Why is US President Nixon mentioned in Paragraph 5?
A.To look back on the historic visit.
B.To show Chinese people’s hospitality.
C.To prove White Rabbit’s popularity.
D.To indicate Nixon’s interest in White Rabbit.
4. What is the text mainly about?
A.The story behind the success of the White Rabbit ice cream.
B.Childhood memories carried with White Rabbit.
C.The international reputation of the ABC Company.
D.The history of the White Rabbit candy.

文章大意:本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍了古代人名字的组成部分以及它代表的意义。

5 . Why did Chinese people have more than one name in ancient times?

In ancient China, people’s names had three parts, their family name, given name and courtesy name. Take famous poet Li Bai for example. His family name, which came from his father’s name, was Li. His given name was Bai, and his courtesy name was Taibai.

People used their given names when they were among family members. But in social life, they called each other by their courtesy names to show respect. This was mostly done among people of similar age. If you were talking about yourself, or if your elders were talking about you, the given name would be used instead of the courtesy name.

Men would get their courtesy names when they turned 20. It was a symbol of adulthood (成年礼). Women would get their courtesy names after getting married.

One’s courtesy name often had something to do with one’s given name. For example, the name of Mencius was Meng Ke. His courtesy name was Ziyu. Both Ke and Ziyu mean “carriage (马车)”. Zhuge Liang’s given name was Liang, which means “bright”. His courtesy name was Kongming, which means “very bright”.

1. How many parts are there in people’s names in ancient China?
A.3.B.4.C.5.D.6.
2. What does the underlined word “courtesy” in Paragraph 2 mean in Chinese?
A.名B.姓氏C.字D.昵称
3. Why did people call each other by their courtesy names in social life?
A.To show their love.B.To show their good relationship.
C.To show their kindness.D.To show their respect.
4. What would be used if your elders were talking about you according to the passage?
A.Family name.B.Nickname.C.Given name.D.Courtesy name.
5. What’s the main idea of the passage?
A.The famous poet Li Bai.B.Three parts of ancient names.
C.The ancient names and the modern names.D.The development of names.

7 . The history of modern art begins with Impressionism, a movement started in Paris in the mid-1800’s. At that time many artists painted in a very traditional way that involved spending hours in a studio, painstakingly (辛苦地) creating paintings that were extremely detailed. These paintings were sometimes of people or landscapes or historical events. In 1863, Edouard Manet exhibited his painting “Dejeuner sur l’erbe” at the Salon des Refuses. The painting caused a commotion (骚动), thus starting the Impressionist movement. Although Edouard Manet is the declared leader and founder of the group, he was not present at the first group exhibition or any of the other eight collective Impressionist shows. The movement gained more attention in the April of 1874 when Claude Monet, Auguste Renoir, Alfred Sisley, and Jean-Frédéric Bazille formed Society of Artists, Painters, Sculptors, Engravers and began exhibiting outside of the official salon. The same year, the term Impressionism was invented by criticizing (批评的) journalist Louis Leroy to describe their paintings, who worked for the magazine Le Charivari.

The Impressionists often paint out of doors and want to show how light and shadow fall on objects at particular times of the day. Their works are sometimes described as “captured moments” and are characterized by short quick brushstrokes (笔) of colour which, when viewed up close looks quite messy and unreal. If we step back from the Impressionist paintings, the colours are blended together by our eyes and we are able to see the painters’ subjects which often show colourful landscapes, sunlight on water as well as people busy with outdoor activities.

1. Before Impressionism, the works of artists were ________.
A.quite abstractB.very confusing
C.very detailedD.quite controversial
2. Who first started Impressionism?
A.Claude Monet.B.Edouard Manet.
C.Auguste Renoir.D.Alfred Sisley.
3. The works of the Impressionists are best viewed ________.
A.with imaginationB.at a distance
C.outdoorsD.in a studio
4. The second paragraph is mainly about ________.
A.the painting style of the Impressionists
B.how to describe the Impressionist paintings
C.the influences of the Impressionist paintings
D.the subjects of the Impressionist paintings

8 . Ireland has had a very difficult history. The problems started in the 16th century when English rulers fried to conquer (征服) Ireland. For hundreds of years, the Irish people fought against the English. Finally, in 1921, the British government was forced to give independence to the south of Ireland. The result is that today there are two “Irelands”. Northern Ireland, in the north, is part of the United Kingdom. The republic of Ireland, in the south, is an independent country.
In the 1840s ,the main crop, potatoes was affected by disease and about 750, 000 people died of hunger. This, and a shortage (短缺) of work, forced many people to leave Ireland and live in the USA, the UK, Australia and Canada. As a result of these problems, the population fell from 8.2 million in 1841 to 6.6 million in 1851.
For many years, the majority of Irish people earned their living as farmers. Today, many people still work on the land but more and more people are moving to the cities to work in factories and offices. Life in the cities is very different from life in the countryside, where things move at a quieter and slower pace.
The Irish are famous for being warm-hearted and friendly, Oscar Wilde, a famous Irish writer, once said that the Irish were “the greatest talkers since the Greeks”. Since independence, Ireland has revived (复兴) its own culture of music, language, literature and singing. Different areas have different styles of old Irish songs which are sung without instruments. Other kinds of Irish music use many different instruments such as the violin, whistles, etc.
1. What does the author tell us in Paragraph 1?
A.How the Irish fought against the English.
B.How Ireland gained independence.
C.How two “Irelands” came into being.
D.How English rulers tried to conquer Ireland.
2. The last paragraph is mainly about____.
