I was six, and ever since then, I have dreamed of attending the World Cup.This year, I traveled to Brazil to make my dream a reality. The first match I attended was between Austr
8、alia and Spain. Within minutes of walking into the stadium, I found myself surrounded by the excited fans, talking and cheering together. Unlike what one normally sees on the news, this match was mainly peaceful except for one fight. When the fight started, the whole section began chanting(呼喊)with o
9、ne voice, asking those fighting to stop. When they didnt, the rabble-rousers were sent out by security guards minutes later.What struck me about the games I attended was the sense of camaraderie. I met soccer fans from different countries. Sometimes we were cheering for the same team and sometimes f
10、or opposite teams, but that didnt stop us from becoming friends. The stands were not divided between teams, and the interaction was often spirit-lifting.I also watched the game in Sao Paulo that ousted(淘汰)Brazil from the World Cup. I was with friends at a large bar which hosted a mix of Brazilian an
11、d German supporters. As Germany scored one goal after another, the sadness and even tears were visible on the faces of Brazilians. But German fans came to the Brazilians to comfort them and apologize that the game was ending with such a big gap. Everyone was hoping for a good match.What I love about
12、 the World Cup is that it provides a chance for people to learn about other countries and cultures. People learn about the countries of the teams they support and about their opponents history and culture. Soccer is a game that not only gives people the chance to learn about each other but also has
13、the potential to unite people.Sports can be a dividing force, but the true spirit of sports is about unity and fun. The matches at this World Cup have been exactly that so far, and I hope it remains so.4What does the underlined word “rabble-rousers” in paragraph 2 refer to?AThe injured players.BThe

16、me. Water in and of itself is not poisonous by any means, but rapid intake of a large quantity of water can break the careful balance of sodium(钠)in the body fluids(体液). This contributes to a swelling of the cells, often in the central nervous system, including the brain.When the cells can no longer
17、 bear the pressure, they can begin to die. This is indicated in serious forms of water poisoning. Symptoms of this condition include vomiting, headache and unresponsiveness. When the sodium in the blood falls to dangerous levels, brain damage and possibly death may occur.What is a fatal(致命的)amount o
18、f water can vary from person to person, depending on ones state of health, his or her physical activity at the time, the temperature and the amount of time in which the person consumes the water. For some, a one-time consumption of three liters can prove deadly. Although the person consuming the wat
19、er may lose a lot of fluid during heavy labor or exercise, the electrolytes(电解质)are not replaced fast enough to avoid water poisoning.Those particularly at risk for water poisoning are athletes engaged in long distance running like a marathon. Due to the need to replace large quantities of lost flui
20、d, runners must drink a lot of water. This can lead to poisoning, so runners must replace their fluids with sports drinks that have added electrolytes. Other factors that contribute to water poisoning include activities that stimulate heavy sweating. The person working under extreme heat or intense
21、humidity(湿气)must be careful when consuming water in order to maintain electrolyte balance. Mental diseases can also lead to water poisoning. Psychogenic polydipsia is a condition in which the affected person feels a need to drink a lot of water for unknown reasons.8What harm does water poisoning bri

But that wasnt always the case. The
25、 mathematician Ada Lovelace and the physicist James Clerk Maxwell were both accomplished poets. The poet John Keats was a licensed surgeon. Combining the two practices fell out of favor in the 1800s. But translating research into lyrics, haiku, and other poetic forms is resurging(再现)among scientists
26、 as they look for alternative ways to inspire others with their findings.“Poetry is a great tool for questioning the world,” says Sam Illingworth, a poet and a geoscientist who works at the University of Western Australia. Through workshops and a new science-poetry journal, called Consilience, Illin
27、gworth is helping scientists to translate their latest results into poems that can attract appreciation from those outside of their immediate scientific field.Stephany Mazon, a scientist from the University of Helsinki in Finland, joined one of Illingworths workshops. In the workshop, she was groupe
28、d with other scientists and tasked with writing a haiku, a 17-syllable-long poem, which spotlighted water, a fluid that featured in all of the group members research projects. “It was a lot of fun, and surprisingly easy to write the poem,” Mazon says. She plans to continue writing. “We do a disservi
29、ce(伤害)to ourselves to think that scientists cant be artistic and that art cant be used to communicate scientific ideas,” Mazon says.That viewpoint is echoed by Illingworth, who thinks science communication initiatives are too often dominated by public lectures with their hands-off PowerPoint slides.
30、 “Actually, when science communication involves writing and sharing poems, it invites a two-way dialogue between experts and nonexperts,” he says. Scientist-poet Manjula Silva, an educator at Imperial College London, agrees. Poetry provides a way to translate complex scientific concepts into a langu
31、age that everyone can understand, Silva says.Scientists and poets are both trying to understand the world and communicate that understanding with others. The distinction between scientists and poets is less than people might think. Were all just people with-hopefully-really interesting things to say
32、 and to share.12What is the purpose of mentioning the celebrities in paragraph 1?ATo display they were talented.BTo confirm they were out of favor.CTo encourage different career paths.DTo show poetry and science can be combined.13What are Illingworths workshops aimed to do?APromote a new science-poe

With thousands of pieces there, how do you know which to focus on? And on
35、ce you see a piece you like, how do you interact with it? Here is some advice on how to have a meaningful connection when you look at art.Get up close and personal._16_ Therefore, take your time to observe qualities about a work that may not come through on a computer screen. That includes its look
36、and the feel of its surface, the marks made by the brush and the path your eyes take when viewing the work.Stand back. Next, take a few steps back, stand in the center and observe whats happening in the big picture. Whats going on in the piece? _17_ What are they doing? How are they related?Look at
37、it from an angle. Then try looking at an artwork from its sides, because you might catch something you might not have seen straight on. If its something like The Ambassadors by Holbein at The National Gallery in London, if you stand to the side, youll see something that from front on looks very diff
38、erent. _18_ Thats called anamorphic art.Move your body. If youre looking at a painting, you can take a finger to the air and trace the outline of the figure or the movement of the brushstrokes. _19_ This can help you see and feel what it might be like to make this artwork from the artists perspectiv
39、e.Consider the subject of the art. That can have a profound effect on how you feel about the work-and perhaps you can learn something from it. Take the example of Andrew Wyeths famous painting, Christinas World, which depicts (描绘) a girl with a muscle disease crawling across a field to get to her ho
