His father immigrated to the United States, fearing that his son would be drafted (招募) into the Czarist army. Mark stayed in Russia with his mother and elder sister; they joined the family later, arriving in the winter of 1913, after a 12-day voyage.‎ Mark moved to New York in the autumn of 1923 and found employment in the garment trade and took up residence on the Upper West Side. It was while he was visiting someone at the Art Students League that he saw students sketching a nude model. According to him, this was the start of his life as an artist. He was twenty years old and had taken some art lessons at school, so his initial experience was far from an immediate calling.‎ In 1936, Mark Rothko began writing a book, which he never completed about the similarities in the children’s art and the work of modern painters. The work of modernists, which was influenced by primitive (原始的) art, according to him, could be compared to that of children in that “Child art transforms itself into primitivism (原始主义), which is only the child producing a mimicry (模仿) of himself.” However, in this same work, he said that “The fact that one usually begins with drawing is already academic. We start with the colors.”‎ It was not long before his multiform developed into the style he is remembered for; in 1949 Rothko exhibited these new works at the Betty Parsons Gallery. For critic Harold Rosenberg, the paintings were a revelation. After painting his first multiform, Rothko withdrew himself to his home in East Hampton on Long Island. The discovery of his definitive form came at a period of great grief; his mother Kate died in October 1948 and it was at some point during that winter that Rothko chanced upon the striking symmetrical (对称的) rectangular blocks of two to three opposing or contrasting, yet complementary colors (对称). As part of this new uniformity of artistic vision, his paintings and drawings no longer had individual titles: from this point on they were simply untitled, numbered or dated. However, to assist in distinguishing one work from another, dealers would sometimes add the primary colors to the name.‎ ‎24.Mark Rothko’s family have experienced all of the following except .‎ A. a separation from his father B. the call up of the army C. a temporary stay in Russia D. a 12-day voyage to the United States ‎25.What made Mark Rothko want to be an artist?‎ A. His move to the Upper West Side. B. His visit to the Art Students League.‎ C. His sight of the students’ drawing. D. His lessons took in art school.‎ ‎26.Mark Rothko thought modern art share some similarities with child art because .‎ A. they are both considered childish and academic B. they are both ways of expressing primitivism C. they are both a copy of the painters themselves D. they ate both striking blocks and colors ‎27.Which of the following statements is true about Mark Rothko’s style?‎ A. It was inspired by Rosenberg. B. It resulted from moving to Long Island.‎ C. It resulted from his grief. D. It evolved (develop gradually) in 1948.‎ C An idea that started in Seattle's public library has spread throughout America and beyond．The concept is simple: help to build a sense of community in a city by getting everyone to read the same book at the same time.‎ In addition to encouraging reading as a pursuit (追求) to be enjoyed by all, the program allows strangers to communicate by discussing the book on the bus, as well as promoting reading as an experience to be shared in families and schools．The idea came from Seattle librarian Nancy Pearl who launched (发起）the "If All of Seattle Read the Same Book " project in 1998．Her original program used author visits, study guides and book discussion groups to bring people together with a book, but the idea has since expanded to many other American cities, and even to Hong Kong.‎ In Chicago, the mayor appeared on television to announce the choice of To Kill a Mockingbird as the first book in the "One Book, One Chicago" program．As a result, reading clubs and neighborhood groups sprang up around the city．Across the US, stories emerged of parents and children reading to each other at night and strangers chatting away on the bus about plot and character．‎ The only problem arose in New York ,where local readers could not decide on one book to represent the huge and diverse population．This may show that the idea works best in medium-sized cities or large towns, where a greater sense of unity(一致）can be achieved .Or it may show that New Yorkers rather missed the point ,putting all their energy and passion into the choice of the book rather than discussion about a book itself.‎ Ultinatelas Nancy points out, the level of success is not measured by how many people read a book, but by how many people are enriched by the process, or have enjoyed speaking to someone with whom they would not otherwise have shared a word.‎ ‎28.What is the purpose of the project launched by Nancy?‎ A. To invite authors to guide readers. B. To encourage people to read and share.‎ C. To involve people in community service. D. To promote the friendship between cities.‎ ‎29.Why was it difficult for New Yorkers to carry out the project?‎ A. They had little interest in reading. B. They were too busy to read a book.‎ C. They came from many different backgrounds D. They lacked support from the local government ‎30.According to the passage, where would the project be more easily carried out?‎ A. In large communities with little sense of unity B. In large cities where libraries are far from home C. In medium-sized cities with a diverse population D. In large towns where agreement can be quickly reached ‎31.According to Nancy, the degree of students of the project is judged by A. the careful selection of a proper book B. the growing popularity of the writers C. the number of people who benefit from reading. D. the number of books that each person reads.‎ D ‎ Britain faces social problems as lots of people are set to lose their jobs in technological revolution, Bank of England’s chief economist warned.‎ Andy Haldane said the so-called Fourth Industrial Revolution will make the machine replace humans to do thinking things. The dark side of the change could be a much bigger breakdown of employment than in Victorian times, with professions such as accountancy (会计) among those at risk.‎ A report by the accountancy firm PwC last month warned that more than 7 million jobs in Britain had been lost over the next 20 years as technological change sweeps though workplaces.‎ The majority of these are in jobs in the retail, transport and manufacturing industries. However, other traditional professional sectors could also be at serious risk.‎ Economists treat the arrival of increasingly intelligent computers and robots as the fourth ‎ industrial revolution. The first was the shift from agricultural to urban societies, the second saw the widespread use of electricity and steel, and the third was the digital revolution when computers, the Internet and mobile phones were developed.‎ Mr Haldane said the hollowing-out (空洞化) experienced in the past years could be on a greater scale in the future so it is important to learn the lessons of history and ensure that people are given training to take advantage of new opportunities.‎ ‎“Jobs were effectively taken by machines of various types, there was a hollowing-out of the jobs market, which left many people for a long period out of work and struggling to make a living,” Haldane added, “That heightened social and financial tensions, and led to a rise in inequality. This is the dark side of technological revolution.”‎ ‎“That hollowing-out is going to be potentially on a much greater scale in the future, when we have machines thinking and doing the cognitive and technical skills of humans.” Mr Haldane said professions like accountancy could be among those hardest hit by the rise of AI. But he suggested economists could escape.‎ ‎32.What is the dark side mentioned in the text?‎ A. The hollowing-out has become a major social problem.‎ B. Less and less people have the desire to learn accountancy C. Intelligent computers and robots decrease good workers.‎ D. The technological revolution causes people to lose jobs.‎ ‎33.Why are economists the lucky dog in the new technological revolution?‎ A. The study about economy is at a low level.‎ B. Economists work on a traditional professional job.‎ C. There is no machine that can work as an economist.‎ D. Economists have the chance to avoid technological revolution.‎ ‎34.What should be done to deal with the serious situation?‎ A. To call for people to devote more to studying history.‎ B. To teach people to grasp the chances technological revolution brings about.‎ C. To warn people not to work on transport and manufacturing industries.‎ D. To ask workers to develop and think as the intelligent computers and robots do.‎ ‎35.What attitude did Haldane have towards the future employment?‎ A. Positive. B. Aggressive. C. Critical. D. Worried.‎ 第二节 (共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分) ‎ 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。‎ The Ways to Show Your Love Without Words It's so easy to tell someone that you love him, but can you show your love without using words? 36..

Recently, I’ve done some research on Chinese characters. As a unique part of Chinese culture, they have a long history and various ways of creating new characters and expressing plentiful meanings. Here I’d like to introduce my favourite Chinese character to you.‎ It is the character “想” that I am talking about, which consists of two parts. “相” is the sound element, while “心” indicates “thought” and “emotion”. In addition to the structure of the character, what attracts me most is its abundant meanings such as “missing”, “thought” and “imagination”, enabling people to express different meanings appropriately according to the contexts. So having a good command of Chinese characters can help you understand Chinese culture profoundly.‎ If you have any interest in knowing more about Chinese characters, just let me know.‎ Best wishes!‎ Yours sincerely,‎ Li Hua
