16.Unseen Art wants to give the Mona Lisa and other world-famous artworks the 3D treatment so that they can be touched,making them accessible to the blind and visually impaired(受损的)."There are many people in the world who have heard of classical artworks their whole lives but are unable to see them,"say Marc Dillon,advocate for the project."Now they can experience them for the first time and create their own impressions and opinions."
The project is currently crowd-funding(大众筹资) on Indiegogo,offering 3D prints of the Mona Lisa for backers,which can be kept or donated to an organization serving the blind and visually impaired community.The money raised will be used to fund an online platform where the 3D files will be down-loadable for free,making 3D printable art available worldwide,anywhere there is a 3D printer.
The project strikes a personal chord(引起共鸣) with Dillon."I was born with one arm shorter than the other.All my life,I continually had to prove that I was able to do everything I wanted to,from playing guitar and riding motorcycles to life-guarding and weightlifting.I also had an uncle who worked as a mechanic(技工) and became blind in adulthood.I saw he was able to continue to do almost anything a seeing person could do."
To test the concept,Dillon took the first 3D print to the Blind Institute of Finland,"They were very excited to touch the Mona Lisa!"says Dillon.In a video for the project,one can see a blind woman experiencing da Vinci's masterpiece through touch.Just like countless others throughout history,she is interested in Mona Lisa's mysterious expression."It's a little bit…mysterious,"she says happily."She wasn't exactly a classical beauty!"
28.World-famous artworks are printed with 3D technology toA.
A.allow the disabled to experience by themselves  
B.raise money for an online platform
C.keep those works for future generation   
D.make money for themselves
29.How can the money raised be used?C
A.For any printing office.
B.Other similar projects.
C.For an online platform.
D.Other famous artworks.
30.According to paragraph 3,we can know thatB.
A.Dillon became blind in childhood  
B.Dillon's uncle was disabled too.
C.Dillon tried to become a mechanic  
D.Dillon's uncle created 3-D technology

6.Neil Armstrong,the first man ever to set foot on the moon,is best remembered by his words"That's one small step for (a) man,one giant leap for the mankind".Once,in an interview with his son,he said it was difficult to watch a sci-fi movie with his dad,because Armstrong would keep complaining about how unrealistic their vision of space were.
In fact,even the Oscar-winning Gravity,described as"the most realistic space movie ever"by Forbes,is not 100 percent faithful to reality.Here is part of a former NASA astronaut-Garrett Reisman's movie review.
On the whole,it's a great movie.But the question that most people want me to answer is how realistic it was.
In general,sci-fi movies are usuallyfar-fetched.So it's amazing how many things Gravity gets right.The danger of space debris(残骸)is very real.There are currently more than 600,000 pieces of debris larger than 1 cm orbiting Earth and they pose a great risk to spacecrafts.However,in the movie,astronauts can see the debris coming and quickly seek shelter.In reality,debris can travel at 20 times the speed of sound,which means that if you can see it,it's already too late to hide.
Another huge error was-there was absolutely no reason for the male astronaut Matt Kowalski to sacrifice himself!!He lets go of the hand of his female partner,Ryan Stone,and drifts away into space.In reality,Kowalski wouldn't have flown away when Stone let go of his hand.Instead,he would have just stayed floating in that spot.
In the movie,Stone travels from the Hubble Telescope to the International Space Station and then to the Chinese Space Station Tiangong,where she finds an escape vehicle to take her back to Earth.But this is actually the biggest error in the movie.The Hubble,the International Space Station and a Chinese space station are not neighbors.Getting from one to the other requires so much energy that not even space shuttles had enough fuel to do it.In addition,space stations travel in different orbits,and they travel quickly.And it would be physically impossible to get from one to the other.
There are other,more minor details that are just unrealistic.For example,Stone doesn't wear a cooling garment(降温服)under her spacesuit to protect herself from the heat in space.
…Yes,I could go on and on about all the things Gravity got wrong.But who cares?All of these inaccuracies were done to help advance the plot or to add drama to the films.This is entertainment,not a documentary.
28.The purpose of the first paragraph is toB.
A.introduce the famous American astronaut Neil Armstrong
B.show that sci-fi movies are often considered unrealistic by astronauts
C.introduce why Gravity is the most realistic space movie ever
D.tell people not to believe everything they see in sci-fi movies
29.The underlined word"far-fetched"can best be replaced by"A".
A.unlikely to be true                    
B.difficult to understand
C.easy to mislead people                
D.unpopular with astronauts
30.Which of the following situations would agree with the laws of physics in space according to the passage?C
A.Astronauts collecting flying space debris
B.Astronauts wearing only T-shirts under their spacesuits
C.Astronauts staying afloat where they are after they part with a spaceship
D.Astronauts performing a space walk from the Hubble Telescope to the International Space Station
31.We can infer from the passage thatD.
A.Garrett Reisman doesn't think highly of the movie Gravity
B.directors of sci-fi movies usually don't care much about minor details
C.the shooting of space documentaries and sci-fi movies involve totally different skills
D.Garrett Reisman believes that sci-fi movies don't need to be totally faithful to reality.
4.Some 30,000years ago,artists who lived in caves in Europe painted pictures of the animals around them:panthers,hyenas,rhinos,cave lions,mammoths and other creatures which have been extinct for a long time.The paintings were highly realistic.Some even showed movement.
The artwork,more than a thousand drawings,is considered the oldest group of human cave drawings which have ever been discovered.They were preserved because the cave was sealed--closed off--for more or less 23,000years.
Fast forward to December 18,1994,a group of French cave scientists were exploring caves in southern France.Jean-Marie Chauvet,who led the group then,describes the process of discovering the cave paintings."At that time I was in the front,Eliette just walked behind me,Christian behind.Eliette said she saw two marks made with red ochre and she said,‘They came here.'And at this very moment everything began.The drawings and everything linked to the parietal art (壁画).That is where it started."
Cave art expert Jean Clottes reviewed the paintings."I was amazed at the number of paintings there were and paintings of their quality and particularly in front of the panel of the horses."
Scientific analysis confirmed the prehistoric date of the artwork.Studies showed the drawings were created tens of thousands of years ago,before human history was written.The United Nations'cultural agency UNESCO lists the cave as a World Heritage Site.They say that the drawings form a remarkable expression of early human artistic creation of grand excellence and variety.
The Chauvet Cave has been named after the explorer who first entered it.However,its environment and drawings are too fragile to be visited by human beings.So the cave is closed,and only people there for scientific purposes can go inside and see the artwork.
However,French authorities asked experts to create an exact copy of the cave,called Pont d'Arc Cavern.The copy,which we also call replica,cost more than 59million dollars to build.It opened at the end of April in France.
Pascal Terrasse is the president of the cavern.He says everyone will be able to experience the thrill of looking at drawings made by the first humans in Europe.He says the place is magic because it is done so well.Authorities say they think as many as 400.000people will be allowed to visit Pont d'Arc Cavern every year.

19.Last year,A Bite of China,made by CCTV's Documentary Channel,sparked discussion not only on Chinese food,but also on locally made documentary programs.
When you think of documentaries,you may think of them as long,boring programs.But documentaries can be wonderful and bring stories from the real world into our homes.With fascinating footage(影片片段) and stories,documentaries encourage us to think about interesting issues we wouldn't necessarily know about.
So,what makes a good documentary,and what should we pay attention to when we watch one?Here,we offer a few easy strategies to help you get the most out of watching documentaries.
Pay attention to the themes
While watching a documentary,keep your eyes and ears peeled for the themes people talk about and what ideas they focus on.Is it meant to be informative or raise a certain emotional response?
Think critically
Listen to what the people in the documentary are saying and ask yourself the following questions:If you were debating with someone or introducing a new concept,would you say the things the people in the documentary are saying?Do the arguments make sense?
Check the sources
If you're sitting at the computer and can't think of anything to do,why not look up the points the documentary made and see if they are accurate?You could even read more about what is presented in the documentary.
Who are the creators?
The creators or financial backers of a film will usually be involved with how the subject matter is presented.For instance,as the documentary 2016:Obama's America was directed in large part by a conservative writer,it's not surprising that it's critical of President Obama from the beginning.

60.Which of the following is the most proper to describe documentaries?A
A.non-fictional     B.controversial     C.subjective     D.thoughtful
61.The passage is mainly written toB.
A.inform us of factors of good documentaries.
B.help us enjoy documentaries better.
C.introduce ways of making documentaries.
D.help us figure out themes of documentaries.
62.Why is 2016:Obama's America mentioned in the article?D
A.Because the author dislikes Obama.
B.Because it is directed by a writer.
C.Because it is quite popular in China.
D.Because it is a persuasive example.
63.According to the passage,C.
A.it is always difficult to get the themes of documentaries.
B.financial backers often appear in documentaries.
C.it's better to think twice about what is in documentaries.
D.many points of documentaries are not accurate.
