Individuality is the particular character, or aggregate (total) of qualities that distinguishes one person or thing from others. Many artists late in the last century were in search of a means to express their individuality. Modern dance was one of the ways some of these people sought to free their creative spirit. At the beginning there was no exacting technique, no foundation from which to build. In later years, trial, error and genius founded the techniques and the principles of the movement. Eventually, innovators (改革者) even drew from what they considered the dread ballet, but first they had to get rid of all that was academic so that the new could be discovered. The beginnings of modern dance were happening before Isadora Duncan, but she was the first person to bring the new dance to general audiences and see it accepted and acclaimed (稱贊).

Her search for a natural movement form sent her to nature. She believed movement should be as natural as the swaying of the trees and the rolling waves of the sea, and should be in harmony with the movements of the Earth. Her great contributions are in three areas.

First, she began the expansion of the kinds of movement that could be used in dance. Before Duncan danced, ballet was the only type of dance performed in concert. In the ballet the feet and legs were emphasized, with virtuosity (高超技巧) shown by complex, codified positions and movements. Duncan performed dance by using her body in the freest possible way. Her dance stemmed from her soul and spirit. She was one of the pioneers who broke tradition so others might be able to develop the art.

Her second contribution lies in dance costume. She rejected ballet shoes and stiff costumes. These were replaced with flowing Grecian (希臘式的) tunes, bare feet, and unbound hair. She believed in the natural body being allowed to move freely, and her dress displayed this ideal.

Her third contribution was in the use of music. In her performances she used the symphonies of great masters including Beethoven and Wagner, which was not the usual custom.

She was as exciting and eccentric (怪異) in her personal life as in her dance.

According to the passage, what did nature represent to Isadora Duncan?

       A．Something to conquer.    B．A model for movement.

       C．A place to find peace.      D．A symbol of disorder.

Compared to those of the ballet, Isadora Duncan’s costumes were less _________.

       A．costly       B．colorful    C．graceful    D．restrictive

Which of the following is not mentioned as an area of dance that Duncan worked to change?

    A. The stage set.      B. The music. C. Costumes.          D. Movements.

We can infer from the passage that the author _________.

    A. appreciates modern dance very much      B. dislikes Isadora Duncan’s dance

    C. thinks highly of individuality   D. knows a lot about modern arts

Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?

       A．Artists of the Last Century     B．Evolution of Dance in the 20th Century

       C．Natural Movement in Dance   D．A Pioneer in Modern Dance

After my dad died on Aug.30, 2001, my mother made sure we marked each anniversary. At first, my brothers and sister and I would travel hours to get home, but eventually we got to the point where just one or two of us would make it back to go to Mass with her and spend the day together.

The great love of her life, the man who broke up with her right before her college graduation, only to return two years later claiming he’d traveled the world and hadn’t found anyone to compare with her, remained a daily presence in her life. She spoke about him so often and kept his memory so alive that people were sometimes surprised to learn that he was gone. She took over the garden where he’d planted and made it her own.

When the 10th anniversary of his death approached, my mom began talking about it and planning for it weeks in advance. The date on her kitchen calendar was circled and marked R.I.P. (Rest in Peace). Of course she wanted all of us there and settled the dates for our coming back.

On Monday — the day before the anniversary — she went to morning Mass and walked downtown for lunch with friends, and later told my sister on the phone that she felt Dad still so close that as she was walking back home, she heard someone yell and thought, “Oh, there’s Dick.”

That evening she went out to water flowers, just as my father, 10 years before, had gone out to the garden to pick vegetables before he died. A neighbor heard the tin watering can strike the ground as she fell and hit her head. My mother died within hours, on Aug.30, 2011, the 10thanniversary. She needed to mark that anniversary, she wanted us all home and my dad had waited long enough.

1.From the second paragraph we know that the author’s father______.

A．traveled around the world and left her mother

B．left her mother first but returned two years later

C．had a quarrel with her before her graduation

D．was not the right man her mother wanted at that time

2.We can infer from the passage that the author’s mother _____.

A．knew her last day was coming on Aug.30

B．kept everything of her father’s home

C．missed Father though he had passed away

D．remained a daily presence in his life

3.Which of the following statements is true EXCEPT that _____.

A．Mother died the day before the anniversary of Father’s death

B．Mother died in the garden as Father did ten years ago

C．Mother died because she fell to the ground accidentally

D．Mother died on the same date when Father did ten years ago

4.What does the writer imply in the underlined part of the last sentence?

A．She wanted us to stay at home.             B．Mother missed us very much.

C．Mother expected us to get back.            D．That day was her last day.

My teacher held up a piece of broken glass and asked，“Who broke this window?” Thirty boys tried to think about not only what they had done，but also what our teacher may have found out．She seldom became angry，but she was this time．

“Oh，” I thought．I was the one who broke the window．It was caused by a naughty throw of a baseball．If I admitted guilt，I would be in a lot of trouble．How would I be able to pay for a big window like that? I didn’t even get an allowance. “My father is going to have a fit，”I thought．I didn’t want to raise my hand，but some force much stronger than I was pulled it skyward．I told the truth. “I did it.” It was hard enough to say what I had．

My teacher took down a book from one of our library shelves and I had never known my teacher to strike a student，but I feared she was going to start with me. “I know how you like birds,” she said as she stood looking down at my guilt-ridden face．“Here is that field guide about birds that you are constantly checking out. It is yours now．It’s time we got a new one for the school anyway．You will not be punished as long as you remember that I am not rewarding you for your misdeed, I am rewarding you for your truthfulness.” I couldn’t believe it! I wasn’t being punished and I was getting my own bird field guide--the very one that I had been saving up money to buy.

All that remains of that day is my memory and the lesson my teacher taught me. That lesson stays with me every day and it will echo forever.
