26、of time! Besides, I havent made any plans for my future yet.” “Time waits for no man！” the old man said. Then he asked the young man to go into a dark house with him. “I cant see anything！” the young man said. The old man lit a match and said to the young man, “Before the match goes out, pick someth
27、ing in the house as you like.” By the weak light, the young man tried to see the things in it.

B Some of the worlds most famous musicians recently got together in Paris and New Orleans to celebrate the first International Jazz Day. UNESCO(United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization) recently set April
31、 30 as a day to make more people know about jazz music. Though the celebrations are pretty great in the US., jazz audiences(观众) grow older, and the number of them continues to become smaller. As a result, the music has failed to connect with the young people. Its Jason Morans job to help change that
32、. As the Kennedy Centers artistic adviser for jazz, Moran hopes to encourage more young people to become more interested in jazz, so he tries his best to make the music easier to understand, and keep its history and culture. “It seems that Jazz is not really a part of the Americans lives nowadays, ”
33、Moran tells National Public radios reporter Neal Conan.“ What Im hoping to complete is that the younger, even teens start to reconsider and understand that jazz does not only belong to the black anymore. It cannot be left out, and it should step with the times.” Moran says one of the problems with j
34、azz today is that few singers really know how to perform this kind of music as before. “The music cant be shown today in the way as it was in 1908 or 1958. It has to continue to change, because the way the world works is not the same，” says Moran. Last year, Moran worked on a project. He planned a d
35、ance party for Fats Wallers music, “Wallers dance music is full of energy, which can make all the audiences light up quickly ”says Moran. “For me, its the music that can bring back old days. In music, we can realize where our emotions(情感) lie. It gets us into a dialogue about our emotions and our th
36、oughts. Sometimes we have already lost the deepest feeling in our mind, but the music helps to recall it，” says Moran， “ so I want to continue those dialogues. Those are the things I want to foster.” 56. UNESCO set April 30 as International Jazz Day to _. A. remember the birth of jazz B. protect Ame
37、rican culture C. encourage people to study music D. recognize the value of jazz 57.

38、ine 58. What can we know about Morans opinion on jazz? A. It is the pride of Americans. B. It is Americans oldest traditional culture. C. It should keep up with the times. D. It changes every 50 years. 59. Many singers cannot use traditional ways to perform jazz because _ A. teenagers neednt learn t
39、o perform Jazz music at school B. few Americans know the rise and fall of jazz music in history C. its not easy for them to play the jazz drum very professionally D. there have been tons of changes in the world, including the music 60.

International Jazz Day is made for reminding people to keep jazzs history and culture. D. Jazz music can help Moran recall the deepest feeling in his mind. C The Intelligent Tran
41、sport team at Newcastle University have turned an electric car into a mobile laboratory named “DriveLAB” in order to understand the challenges faced by older drivers. So that they can discover what the old really need while driving. Research shows that giving up driving is one of the key reasons for
42、 a fall in health and happiness among older people. It may make them become more lonely. Led by Professor Phil Blythe, the Newcastle team are developing some new technologies that are used inside cars. They want to make it possible to help older drivers to continue driving into later life. These tec
43、hnologies include custommade navigation(定制导航) tools, night vision(可视) systems and intelligent speed systems. Phil Blythe explains, “For many older people, particularly those living alone or in the country, driving is important for keeping their independence, giving them the freedom to get out withou
44、t having to depend on others. But we all have to accept that fact: as we get older, we do everything more and more slowly. As a result, its difficult for older people to avoid any possible dangers while they are driving. And many of them will lose confidence in their driving skills. The result is th
45、at people stop driving before they really need to.” Dr Amy Guo, the leading researcher on the older driver study, explains, “The DriveLAB is helping us to understand what the key points and difficulties are for older drivers and how we might use technology to solve these problems.” For example, most
46、 of us would expect older drivers to slower than everyone else. But surprisingly, we found that in 30mph zones(区域), they try to keep at a constant_speed. Some of them even break the speed limit(限制) and face to be punished. Were going out of our way to set up systems which can control their speed as
47、a way of preventing that. “We hope that our work will help with technological solutions to make sure that older drivers stay safer behind the wheel.” 61. What is the purpose of the DriveLAB? A. To repair some old cars. B. To design new types of cars. C. To find out older drivers problems. D. To teac
48、h people traffic rules. 62. Why is driving important for older people according to Phil Blythe? A. It keeps them independent. B. It helps them save time. C. It builds up their creativity. D. It is good for their health. 63. What do researchers hope to do for older drivers? A. Improve their driving skills. B. Help them continue to drive cars. C. Recycle iron from their old cars. D. Organize a driving club for the old. 64. The expression “constant speed” in Paragraph 3 probably means _ in Chinese. A. 超速 B. 限速 C. 匀速 D. 极速 65. What is
