【答案】

【1】providing

【2】which

【3】attraction

【4】is called

【5】a

【6】colo(u)rful

【7】primarily

【8】collections

【9】like

【10】performed

【解析】

【语篇解读】本文是一篇说明文,主要介绍了位于曼谷的夜市Train Night Market Ratchada。

【1】考查非谓语动词。分析句子结构可知,此处应用非谓语动词;provide与其逻辑主语stalls 之间为主谓关系,故用现在分词短语作状语。

【2】考查定语从句。先行词是The shelter,空处引导非限制性定语从句,且在从句中作主语,故用 which。

【3】考查词性转换。根据空前的an可知,此处应填名词attraction "游览胜地,具有吸引力的 事物"。

【4】考查时态和语态。定语从句说的是现在的客观事实,应该用一般现在时;which(指代The market)与call之间是动宾关系,故用被动语态。

【5】考查冠词。spot表示"地点",是可数名词,且此处为泛指,故填不定冠词a。

【6】考查词性转换。根据语境可知,此处指的是"颜色鲜艳的,五彩缤纷的",故填colo(u)rful。

【7】考查词性转换。此处修饰谓语动词,应该用副词,故填primarily。

【8】考查名词复数。空前无冠词或者形容词性物主代词,加之collection"收藏物,收藏品"是 可数名词,故填collections。

【9】考查介词。like意为"像,如",用来列举事物。

【10】考查非谓语动词。此处是"with+宾语+宾补"复合结构。宾语music和perform之间是 逻辑上的被动关系,故用过去分词作宾补。

Have tea in the late afternoon provides a bridge between lunch and dinner, that might not be served until 8 o’clock at night. This custom soon becomes another meal of day.

Despite being used by 1.34 billion people each year, traveling on the Tube in London can actually be quite lonely. An unwritten rule encouraging silence, mixed with classic British reserve, means that even though you’re packed into enclosed space with hundreds of other people, the morning trip can leave you feeling somewhat lonely.

One London resident, however, is trying to change this. "You get on the Tube here and it’s completely silent and it’s strange," says Jonathan Dunne, an American living in London, who has started a campaign of giving out badges (徽章) with the slogan "Tube Chat?" last month, encouraging travelers in London to get talking to one another.

Although Dunne says he’s received mostly positive responses, there are always exceptions.

Londoner Brian Wilson responded with a campaign of his own, handing out 500 badges with the words "Don’t even think about it" on them. "I can’t stand the idea of having to talk to strangers on the Tube on my way to work," he said.

Michael Robinson, a student from London, agrees. "Being on the Tube is the only peace and quiet some people get on their journeys to and from work. It doesn’t need to be spoiled by people coming up and chatting to you," he says.

"People assume that I just walk up and talk to strangers, which I don’t, but it’s been a great way to meet people you would never have normally spoken to," Dunne says. So if you ever end up using public transport in London, why not say hello to the person next to you? Just make sure to check for a badge first.

【1】Which partly leads to the silence on the Tube in London?

A. The government’s rule.

B. People’s desire for quiet.

C. British people’s personality.

D. Awareness of personal privacy.

【2】What can the badge with "Tube Chat?" be seen as?

A. A request for keeping silent.

B. A special way of greeting someone.

C. A signal of avoiding being disturbed.

D. An encouragement to start a conversation.

【3】Why does the author mention Brian and Michael?

A. To stress the importance of communication.

B. To show not everyone agrees with Dunne’s idea.

C. To prove Londoners are speechless on the Tube.

D. To state the disadvantages of chatting with strangers.

【4】 What’s the best title for the passage?

A. Please mind the silence on the Tube!

B. Time to change your way to take the subway!

C. What makes people feel lonely on the Tube?

D. Why was the "Tube Chat?" campaign not a success?

In a recent announcement, Harvard and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology（MIT）said that they have joined forces to offer free online courses in an effort to attract millions of online learners worldwide.

Beginning this fall, a number of courses developed by teachers at both universities will be offered online through a new $60 million program, known as edX. “Anyone with an Internet connection anywhere in the world can use our online courses,” Harvard President Drew Faust said during a meeting to announce the plan.

MIT has offered a program called OpenCourseWare for ten years that makes materials from more than 2,000 classes free online. It has been used by more than 100 million people. In December, the school announced it also would begin offering a special certificate, known as MITx, for people who complete certain online courses. Harvard has long offered courses to a wider population through a similar program.

The MITx will serve as the foundation for the new learning platform.

MIT President Susan Hockfield said more than 120,000 people signed up for the first MITx course. She said Harvard and MIT hope other universities will join them in offering courses on the open-source edX platform.

“Fasten your seatbelts,” Hockfield said.

Other universities, including Stanford, Yale and Carnegie-Mellon, have been experimenting with teaching to a global population online.

The Harvard-MIT program will be monitored by a not-for-profit（非盈利的）organization based in Cambridge, to be owned equally by the two universities. Both MIT and Harvard have provided $30 million to start the program. They also plan to use the edX platform to research how students learn and which teaching methods and tools are most successful.

【1】 According to this text, edX is _______.

A. a part of the free MIT OpenCourseWare

【题目】D

Max Vernon Mathews has been called the father of computer music. He created electronic tools so that people could use computers as musical instruments. He had a huge influence on the development of electronic music and how it is written, recorded and played.

In 1957, Max Mathews wrote the first computer program that enabled a computer to create sound and play it back. At the time, he was working as an engineer at Bell Laboratories in New Jersey. His computer program was called Music. It enabled a large IBM computer to play a seventeen-second piece of music that he had written.

The computer was so slow that it would have taken an hour to play the piece of music in seventeen seconds. For that reason, Mathews moved the work to a tape player, which could be sped up to play the music at a normal speed. He later said that the sound quality of the musical notes was not great, but the technical importance of the music was huge.

The science fiction writer Arthur C. Clarke visited Bell Laboratories in the 1960s. He heard a computer “sing” the song “Daisy Bell” on devices and programs developed by Max Mathews and other engineers. Clarke noted this technology in his book “2001: A Space Odyssey,” which was later made into a movie.

Mathews continued creating other versions of the Music program. He became interested in how computers could help musicians outside recording studios.

Max Mathews had a long and productive career. He worked with composers like John Cage and Edgard Varese. He helped create a center for research in computer music in Paris. And he taught at the Center for Computer Research in Music and Acoustics in Stanford University in California.

Mathews believed modern musicians were not making full use of the power of computer music. He said a violin always sounds like a violin, but with a computer, the way a violin sounds is unlimited. He said he did not want computer sounds to replace live music. But he said he hoped laptop computers would one day be considered serious instruments.

【1】 How did the program Music work according to the computer?

A. It helped design a computer program.

B. It made sound and play it on a computer.

C. It could record a seventeen-second piece of music.

D. It enabled a large IBM computer to work faster.

【2】 Mathews was likely to think that .

A. the first computer music was technically important.

B. the first piece of computer music was too short

C. the IBM computer was fit for creating slow music

D. the first piece of computer music wasn’t music indeed

【3】Which of the following is true?

A. Clarke helped develop computer music.

B. Mathews became a character in a movie later on.

C. Computer music was mentioned in Clarke’s book.

D. Clarke saw Mathews operate a singing computer.

【4】 It is implied in the last paragraph that .

A. Mathew wanted computers to take the place of live music.

B. a violin does make much better sounds than a computer

C. a computer can help improve sounds of traditional musical instruments

D. laptops are more suitable to be used as serious musical instruments
