Located besideLake Geneva, the Olympic Museum houses more than 10,000 artificial objects and hours of interactive contents highlighting some of the best moments during the Olympics. Here are some of the museum’s most moving moments.

The Olympic Park

The journey through the Olympic Museum begins in the Olympic Park, an 8,000-square-meter outdoor area in front of the museum overlooking Lake Geneva and theAlps. The park contains artwork and sculptures that show respect to the world of sport.

The first Olympic symbol

The “Olympic Rings” flag was designed by Coubertin in 1913. The rings represent the five continents that participate in the Olympics: Africa, Asia,America,AustraliaandEurope. The six color1 s include at least one color1 that is represented on the flag of every country.

The stadiums

The stadiums that host the Olympic Games are as much of a celebration of design as the games are a celebration of sportsmanship. Guests can explore plans and models of Olympic stadiums’ past and present, including one of the games’ most attractive stadiums, the Bird’s Nest from Beijing 2008 Olympics.

The Olympic medals

Some people take their holiday decoration very seriously. And some take it to the next level. The Griffith family in Kenova, West Virginia, is in this camp. They put on a display that shows they’re just filled with Halloween spirit.

Each year, this family displays 3,000 pumpkins (南瓜) in front of their home for the Halloween season. Yes, you readthatright. Ric Griffith puts out one jack-o’ -lantern (南瓜灯) for every person who lives in Kenova.

Of course he doesn’t do it all on his own. He has a lot of help from his family, and also from members of the community who are super-proud of what has become quite the tourist attraction over the years. More than 30,000 people stop by to see the amazing display, which includes jack‑o’‑lanterns cut to look like the faces of famous people, animals, cartoon characters, and other creative designs. It’s certainly a must-see as part of the area’s Ceredo-Kenova Autumnfest.

To fit in all 3,000 pumpkins, Griffith and his helpers spread them across the home’s garden and front porch (门廊), as well as on the roof!

Griffith began the tradition back in 1978 with just fivepumpkins and, many years later, it’s much bigger and better. People can’t help but come to the area, walking along the sidewalk outside the house to get that perfect Halloween experience.

“Locals take great pride in it, and then there are people from around the country who plan fall trips and include it in their trips so they can see it,” said Tyson Compton, president of the Cabell‑Huntington Convention and Visitors Bureau. “It’s really something.”

“It’s become a tradition for many people in our area, and it feels good to keep that going,” Griffith said. 4. What does the underlined word “that” in Paragraph 2 refer to? A. The Griffiths selling 3,000 pumpkins a day. B. Ric Griffith giving 3,000 jack-o’‑lanterns to tourists.

C. Ric Griffith teaching 3,000 people how to display jack-o’‑lanterns. D. The Griffiths decorating their house with 3,000 pumpkins.

5. What can we learn from Paragraph 3?

A. Ric Griffith’s idea has received support from his community. B. There are only two kinds of jack-o’‑lanterns. C. Ric Griffith dislikes asking for help from others. D. There are 30,000 people in Kenova. 6. What do we know about the tradition? A. It began with 1,978 pumpkins. B. It has lasted more than 40 years. C. It includes five pumpkin competitions. D. It encourages people to do more exercise.

7. What’s Tyson Compton’s attitude towards the tradition? A. Worried. B. Uncaring. C. Favorable. D. Uncertain.

C

Simply being quiet is a growing appeal. Lots of business have appeared to meet a rising demand for quiet time, from silent weekend getaways to silent dining, silent reading parties and even silent dating. Silence can mean different things to different people. We are usually silent only with those closest to us. So there is something almost radical(不同凡响的)about the recent trend towards enjoying silence with strangers.

Mariel started a regular silent reading party inDundeejust under a year ago. Readers bring their books and meet in a bar, where they read together in silence for an hour or sometimes two and then put their books away to chat and have a drink. “When the reading party starts, everything goes quiet,” says Mariel, “ It’s a little bit surreal (超现实的), especially in what is usually a noisy bar. However, there is something special about sharing the silence with others. It offers a chance to escape from reality; everyone is so busy with work and with technology being ever present. An event like thisgives people the opportunity to escape these things for a while.”

Honi Ryan is an artist based inBerlinwho began hosting silent dinner back in 2006. The rules of the dinner are: no talking, no using your voice, no reading or writing, trying to make as little noise as possible, not connecting with technology, and staying for at least two hours. So far she has taken her silent dinner project toMexico, theUS,AustraliaandChina. “It’s evident that the age-old connections we make over food do not depend on the words around it. Silence creates the space for the people and places involved to fill with whatever is needed;itis quite different from our usual social behaviors.”

8. Why have lots of silent businesses appeared? A. To satisfy people’s demand for silence. B. To make people get close to each other. C. To appeal to young people. D. To change people’s old way of life.

9. What can we learn about Mariel’s silent reading parties? A. Readers can use their voice while reading. B. Readers can be busy with their work. C. Readers can connect with technology. D. Readers can chat and drink after reading.

10. The underlined word “it” in the last paragraph refers to .

A. noise B. space C. silence D. food 11. What can be a suitable title for the text?

A. Escape from Reality. B. Enjoying Being Quiet. C. Silent Reading Parties. D. Silent Dining Projects.

Jeff Bezos, Elon Musk and Richard Branson have a combined net worth of 400 billion, roughly the size of the GDP of the entire nation of Ireland. And all three men have decided to put vast sums of their wealth into chasing their space travel dreams, creating a modern space race in which ultra — rich men — rather than countries — shoot for the stars.

But why the three billionaires choose the crazy plan? Just for the travel dreams? It’s not that simple. As we all know, the space travel is a mirror of comprehensive national strength, whether it’s the cold war or the present. The first space racespannedmultiple presidents and premiers — Kennedy, Krushchev, Brezhnev, Nixon. It made heroes of astronauts and cosmonauts, and it focused national prides. But obviously, this year’s race between the billionaires features none of that national pride or opposing ideas. It’s tax — averse tycoons (大亨) who want to sell high — priced tickets to rich people interested in experiencing weightlessness. Amazon’s Bezos has said he is funding his portion by selling off large chunks of his Amazon stock (股票) — 1 billion or more a year.

What are the odds? If anyone is taking bets on how this will end, and who will have the more profitable space tourism business, consider Amazon’s method of making very little profit in order to eat up competition. So, from this point of view, what’s hiding behind this crazy race is business. As a method of expand influence, it is not a bad

idea.

Richard Branson has carried out his plan on July 12, and Jeff Bezos announced that he will start his space travel on July 20. Bezos is getting some good press because he’s taking Wally Funk along for the ride. She’s the pilot now in her 80s who was kept out of space in the 1960s because she’s a woman. This may be a bonus for him. As for Musk, he thinks these two above are not real space trips, he wants a larger move.

Who will win the race in the end? Let’s wait and see.

12. Which of the following people might be the potential client of the space travel? A. Daisy aged 45 with a heavy debt. B. Clarkson who doesn’t enjoy taking risks. C. Billy aged 60 with an ample retirement pension. D. Alexander who knows nothing about space travel. 13. What stopped Wally Funk flying to space in the 1960s?

A. Age. B. Gender. C. Height. D. Disposition. 14. What does the author think of the billionaires race?

A. Profit — driven. B. Meaningless. C. Foolish. D. Generous. 15. What does the underlined word “spanned” in paragraph 3 probably mean?

A. Revolved. B. Turned down. C. Entered. D. Leapt through. 第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）

Criticism from others can be difficult to take, especially if theperson delivering the criticism isn’t exactly subtle(含蓄的)about it. So how should we deal with it?___16___

Try to separate the criticism from the environment in which it was given.___17___However, you should also try to calmly look at what’s being saidand see if there are clues for your personal growth. Pretend the person isn’t talking about you, and try to read between the lines.

If your boss complains you always wait until the last minute to complete tasks, set your due-dates a day earlier than they’re really due, so you get to work sooner.

Adjust your attitude. You can do all of this and still get depressed when someone tells you how you can improve. Attitude is the key here.___20___It’s easier said than done, but knowing your strengths and being ready to hear and accept your weaknesses is the most powerful thing you can do. A. Focus on the meaningful part of the criticism. B. Look at criticism as a chance to grow and get better. C. Here are some ways you can get benefits from criticism. D.

52.阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。

\"Breakfast time!\" I quickly put on my clothes and rushed down the stairs.

\"Come on, we don't want to be late!\" My mom said. The aroma (香味) of pancakes filled the kitchen, making the room warm. I looked out of the window. The sun was out，making a warm and bright morning.

\"Today's the day, zip lining (高空滑索)!\" My dad said, sounding very enthusiastic early this morning. Today we would go zip lining. The excitement built up inside of me as breakfast went on. After breakfast, we set out in my dad's car. Half way through the ride, the sun grew hot, and the leather on the seats burned my legs. I thought about the trip, how my parents went but not me. It was my first time experiencing something like this. I

also thought about my fear of heights, one thing I tried to get rid of multiple times. It got in the way of so many fun activities like roller coaster at Kings Island.

We were basically there by now, the sun still blazing hot. We pulled up to a big sign where our instructor waited for us.

\"Hi y'all!\" said our instructor cheerfully. \"So, have y'all done this before?\"

My parents nodded but I shook my head. Our instructor went over safety instructions while we each put on a safety harness (安全带). I started to get nervous. A never ending roller coaster of excitement and anxiousness built inside of me when I looked down the cliff. My heart skipped a beat when the wind howled, blowing leaves and twigs in the trees. My legs started to shake.

注意：

1.续写词数应为150左右；

2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。

\"Alright y'all, time to hit the trails!\" said the instructor with too much enthusiasm.
