本文是一篇說明文。作者通過這篇文章向我們介紹了費城的一些令人驚嘆的景點,適合家人一起去游覽參觀。

1細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)Independence Seaport Museum中的“Indoors, kids climb through a new, full-size reconstruction of a sailing ship created by using traditional boat-building techniques. Families can also rent museum-built boats to explore the calm waters and get a close view of the historic ships.”可知,在室內(nèi),孩子們可以爬上使用傳統(tǒng)造船技術(shù)制作的新的完整尺寸的帆船。家庭還可以租用博物館建造的船只,探索平靜的水域并近距離欣賞歷史悠久的船只。即游客在Independence Seaport Museum可以對傳統(tǒng)船舶有粗略的了解。故選D。

2細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)Morris Arboretum中的“$10.00 for youth(3—12),students (must have ID)$ 19.00 for adults”可知,一對夫婦帶著十二歲的孩子需要花費:19 +19+10=48,因此需要花費48美元。故選D。

3推理判斷題。通讀全文,由第一個景點介紹中的關(guān)鍵詞individuals;第二個景點介紹中的關(guān)鍵詞adults、seniorschildren;第三個景點介紹中的關(guān)鍵詞youthadults;第四個景點介紹中的關(guān)鍵詞adultschildren可知,作者在本文中介紹的四個旅游景點都適合家人一起去。故選A

It's a small business 1 started, and everyone who enjoy, working here comes into the studio in free time, so they can be home with their family, cats, dogs at prime times.

I first fell in love with candles on visits to my grandmother Feme's house in Lincoln. At night, candlelight flashed off the book-lined walls. During the day, she'd take me to a cafe in the historic Haymarket district and we'd drink tea out of china cups.

I poured my first candle at the age of 14, using the candle-making tool that Feme had given me. I gave the finished product to my grandmother for Christmas. She loved that candle I'd made for her. That first candle was imperfect. Beautifully imperfect

Then in 2014. life took a dark turn for my grandmother. The breast cancer took away her life. I found myself thinking about the candle-making tool she had given me as a 14-year-old kid and the joy it had brought me. I began pouring candles again, making them for friends. Because of kids' health. I'd become especially interested in natural products. I used locally sourced soy wax. Was there a way I could make candles for people beyond my group of friends? And so, Christmas of that year, Wax Buffalo was launched. Little by little, the business grew as we found more people who wanted our candles. Now our candles are sold in more than 60 shops across the country.

Isn't life wonderful? Indeed, it is beautifully imperfect. But it hasn't turned out at all how I'd have predicted. I think that's what Ferne wanted me to understand. To trust the light of hope, to enjoy fun in its light, to know that it can transform a person from within.

【題目】 Talent shows are common on Chinese television, but instead of casting starry-eyed(幻想的) hopefuls, a new series pairs young famous actors with big-name veterans who are ready to teach them a lesson.

The Birth of Performer first appeared on Zhejiang Satellite TV in October and has already received 330 million online views for just its first two episodes. The show has caused debate on social media about the acting skills of some stars.

A flood of investment in China’s TV and film industry has driven up paychecks for popular young attractive persons and soap opera sweethearts, but some stars have been slammed by critics and the public for lacking professionalism and acting skills.

People wonder why some actors don’t take acting seriously with more and more money pouring in,Wu Tong wrote. However, he said that he had met many devoted young actors through the show, whose A-list cast of mentors(導(dǎo)師) includes Zhang Ziyi, who starred in the Oscar-winning kung fu epic Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon; and comedy queen Song Dandan.

One highlight from the first episode saw Zhang appear to become angry when she disagreed with her fellow judge-mentor Liu Ye over the performance of contestant Zheng Shuang.

Do you know what acting is?Zhang questioned Liu. In response, Liu slammed his phone on the table — and then his shoe.

As the audience and contestants were left stunned(震驚的), Zhang turned to Liu and warmly said, Give me a hug.The two mentors explained that their quarrel was intended to show how to act out a scene of conflict — but later, online commentators speculated(推測) that Zhang was concealing her genuine irritation.

1What can we learn about The Birth of Performer according to Paragraph 2?

A.Only the young love it.B.It proves popular.

C.The performers are excellent.D.There are fewer stars present.

2What does the underlined word slammedin Paragraph 3 mean?

C.Criticized.D.Applied.

3By mentioning Zhang Ziyi, Wu Tong wants to show _______.

4How did Liu react when Zhang Ziyi questioned Zheng Shuang’s performance?
