11、文,从所给的四个选项(A、B、C、D)中选出最佳选项,并在答题卡上将选项涂黑。 A When film was first invented in the late 1800s and early 1900s, movie-goers could actually see images of far-away places, like China, and that fueled interest in the area. Throughout history, many Chinese Americans are devoted in this area.Now, the back room
12、of the Formosa Cafe looks like a museum that honors the works of Chinese Americans and their contributions to Hollywood. Chinese stereotypes (刻板印象) Stereotypes of the Chinese in America were strengthened by the othernessof U. S. China towns in the late 1800s and early 1900s. There was an idea that t
13、he Chinese was the “ yellow peril“ , who you couldnt trust. And that resulted in the character called Fu Manchu. Fu Manchu was an evil character who wanted to destroy the western world. He appeared in movies and in a television series. In 1926, Charlie Chan, a Chinese investigator from Hawaii, appea
14、red for the first time in a movie. This created a different, yet still problematic Asian stereotype. “ Yellow face“ actors Charlie Chan and Fu Manchu may have been Chinese characters, but the actors were usually white men made up to look like Asian. Actors Sidney Toler, Roland Winters and Ross Marti
15、n all played Charlie Chan. Yellow face meant they actually yellowed up their skin. White actors just played the lead characters in The Good Earth, a 1937 film about Chinese farmers. Asian actors had parts in the film, but they needed bankable actors, however, there were no Asian American bankable ac
16、tors. China factors Over the years, Asian and Chinese Americans did find work in Hollywood, and a few earned a star on the Hollywood Walk for Fame. Hollywood is also changing the way it presents the Chinese culture. As the biggest market for movies outside the U. S, Hollywood has been making films t
17、hat will not offend movie-goers in China or the countrys government. The industry has been careful not to show the Chinese as evil. Co-productions between Hollywood and Chinese companies put Chinese characters and China in a favorable or satisfactory way. 21. Why is the back room of the Formosa Caf6
18、 mentioned? A. To show appreciation for Chinese American filmmakers. B. To display the richness of Chinese American films. C. To attract more customers to enjoy coffee in the Formosa Caf6. D.

B This is the colourful waste created by a Swedish city with a unique recycling system. Like many cities in Sweden, Eskilstuna has an impressive recycli
21、ng record. It met the EU 2020 target of recycling 50% of waste many years ago. But almost everyone who lives here follows a strict recycling policy at home. People are expected to sort their household waste into seven separate categories, including food, textiles, cartons (纸板箱) and metal. But what r
22、eally makes the system stand out is the bright colour code. The reason for this becomes clear at the citys recycling plant. The bags arrive all jumbled up because theyre collected altogether in a rush, once a fortnight from outside peoples houses. But thanks to those bright colors, scanners can sele
23、ct the bags and separate them efficiently. The food waste in green bags is processed on site into a certain thick liquid to make burnable gas, which powers the citys buses. One of the benefits of this method of recycling is that there is less crosspollution , so more of the recycled waste can actual
24、ly be used to make new things. Like the rest of Sweden, Eskilstuna is committed to sending zero waste from its citizens to landfill. Waste that cannot be recycled is burnt at a local plant to generate electricity. This reduces reliance on fossil fuels, but does create greenhouse gases. As countries
25、around the world try to improve their recycling rates, some may look to Eskilstuna as an example to follow as long as they think they can persuade their citizens to get busy sorting at home. 24.

26、ecycling. C. Waste there is painted into seven colors. D. Rubbish recycling is handled seriously there. 25. What does the underlined word “jumbled” in paragraph 2 mean? A. Mixed together.B.

The decrease of profit for waste plants. 27.Where is this text most likely from? A. Parents.B. In style.C. Fortune.D. The New Y
28、ork Times. C Chocolates, syrup(糖浆),cream on top, many of the hot drinks we consume even more at this time of year certainly sound sugary, but just how much sugar they contain might come as a shock. The health campaign group Action on Sugar has found that Starbucks hot chocolate made with milk has al
29、most 94 grams of sugar. That equals 23 teaspoons. At Caffe Nero, the salted hot chocolate packs in almost 60 grams of sugar, about 15 teaspoons. And Castas cream latte(拿铁)has 32 grams of sugar, thats 8 teaspoons. The drink makers wont have those details listed next to the price. If known, it would b
30、e quite alarming. Thats how capitalism works. The capitalists have to get people addicted to certain things to keep selling it more. If told the amount of sugar contained,many would take hot drinks just as a treat not on a daily basis. Some drinks have actually reduced in sugar over the past few yea
31、rs, but many more havent. The most sugary seasonal drink was from Starbucks with more than 14 teaspoons of sugar. Other companies like breakfast cereal manufacturers and yogurt manufacturers are reducing sugar. And so is soft drinks, yet the milk based drinks, milk shakes, hot chocolates and lattes
32、just dont seem to have changed in the same way. And while some companies are actually being really responsible reducing their sugar, some have actually increased that in the last two years which just seems ridiculous. Coffee chains do offer low- calorie alternatives. But Action on Sugar are still ca
33、lling for more tax on hot coffee drinks.

34、tening. C. Famous hot drink makers prefer hot chocolate series. D. Cream latte is the signature hot drink for Starbucks. 29. What can we learn about hot drink makers? A.

D. Warnings can be given to those enjoying weekly hot drinks. D Do some kinds of video games cause viol
37、ence? Scientific studies do not suggest a link. But the idea that there is a link between violent video games and violent acts reappeared following the mass shooting in El Paso, Texas, last weekend. An online statement thought to be written by the El Paso gunman mentioned the video game “Call of Dut
38、y“. On Monday, President Donald Trump said that “ terrifying video games” contribute to a “glorification of violence. American politicians have long made similar statements Benjamin Burroughs is a professorof media at the University of Las Vegas. He said that there is no linkage to gun violence, whe
39、n mentioning video games. Burroughs pointed out that some studies show a short-term increase in aggressive thoughts and feelings after playing video games, but nothing that rises to the level of violence. “Plenty of gamers get upset when they lose or feel the game was cheating, but it doesnt lead to
40、 violent outputs,“ Burroughs stressed. In 2006, a small study by researchers at Indiana University found that teenagers who played violent video games showed higher levels of emotional arousal (激发)-strong emotions like anger or fear. The teenagers also showed less activity in the parts of the brain
41、associated with the ability to plan, control and direct thoughts and behavior. Patrick Markey, the psychology professor, found in his research that men who commit severe acts of violence actually play violent video games less than the average male. Another study by Markey and other researchers showe
42、d that violence tends to go down when a new violent movie or video game comes out. One possible explanation is that people are at home playing the game or in theaters watching the movie. Markey believes that video games might excite people, but they do not change who people are. “It is like going to
43、 see a sad movie,” Markey said of playing video games. “It might make you cry but it doesnt make you clinically depressed,“ he said. 32. Why is the mass shooting in El Paso, Texas mentioned in the first paragraph? A. To show the necessity of scientific studies. B. To support the writers own viewpoin
44、t. C. To show the seriousness of violent acts. D. To serve as evidence for the assumption. 33. What are the similarities between Benjamin Burroughs and Patrick Markey? A. Both are specialists in psychology in the USA. B. Both acknowledge video game aroused emotional change. C. Both present their ide
45、as through doing research. D. Both worry about the potential dangers caused by video games. 34.What can be learned about the research in 2006? A. Teenagers tested in it become more emotional. B. Its findings set alarm for young video game players. C. Teenagers mentioned in it mainly come from Indian
46、a. D. Its researchers are strongly for banning video games. 35.What is the best title for the text? A. Violencea by-product of video games. B. Video gamesthe cause of violence or not. C. Video gamesthe promoter of the mass shoot. D. Violencea threat for game players or not. 第二节(共 5 小题;每小题 2 分,满分 10

48、th no respect. Human beings learn by example and most of the examples on TV are anything but empathetic. 37 Having relationships with other people is an important part of being human and having empathy is decisive to it. Researchers have also found that the empathetic teenagers are more likely to ha
49、ve high self-respect. Besides, empathy can be a cure for loneliness, sadness, anxiety and fear. 38 Many top companies report that empathy is one of the most important things they expect from new managers. 39 Apparently, empathy is a kind of “ emotional intelligence“ that will help us achieve it.
