The gallery has a group of diverse talents on its name list but specializes in female artists, showing work such as Jenny Holzer’s language-based light installations（装置）and the abstract paintings of Joan Mitchell.‎ Pace Gallery ‎508 W. 25th St‎, 212-989-4258; ‎510 W. 25th St, 212 255-4044; ‎584 W. 25th St.‎, 212-929-7000‎ With three locations（位置）in Chelsea alone, Pace stands out for its ability to host all kinds of affairs, depending on the need.

My hometown is a medium sized city with only one public library that was open to only a limited number of people. I didn’t read much as a child and had never experienced the enjoyment of visiting a library and reading.‎ When I came to the United States in 1991 at the age of 27, I couldn’t understand and speak English well. I didn’t know what to do with my life at that time. Fortunately I lived within walking distance to the Madison Public Library in Madison‎, ‎Wisconsin. I went to the library several times a week and checked out one or two bags full of books every time, starting with books at the kindergarten level. I could read a few dozen a day. The more I read, the more I hungered for books and knowledge.‎ After my English improved, I got a position at the Madison Public Library to check in books. As books passed through my hands, I found more interesting ones to read. Every workday I took a bag of finished books to work and at the end of the day my empty bag was filled with books again. As a library user and a part-time library worker, I dreamed of becoming a professional librarian. I went to the library school and got my master’s degree in library science at the University of ‎ Wisconsin-Madison. My dream became a reality.‎ Library was my harbor during the difficult times in my life when I didn’t know what to do and who I was. Now library is where I work for a living and visit with my two kids for adventures and enjoyment. For us, one of the nicest things is the public library. We are all equal in the library and knowledge is freely available to everyone who desires it.‎ ‎24. Why did the author read few books in her childhood?‎ A. She was not interested in reading.‎ B. There were limited books in the library.‎ C. She was not allowed to enter the library.‎ D. There was no library in her home town.‎ ‎25. How did the author begin her reading in the Madison Public Library?‎ A. By borrowing few books each time.‎ B. By reading easy books.‎ C. By visiting it every day.‎ D. By applying for a position in it.‎ ‎26. What did the author do to become s professional librarian?‎ A. She received related education.‎ B. She took home books every day.‎ C. She read more interesting books.‎ D. She helped arrange finished books.‎ ‎27. What can be the best title for the text?‎ A. Childhood Dreams Realized B. Books That Changed My Life C. Public Library: My Turning Point D. A Place Where Knowledge is Free C Jaguars（美洲虎）are the largest cat in North and South America. They can be found in many areas from south of Mexico to Argentina. But the loss of forests and the growth of cities have disturbed more than half of the cats’ main habitat, forcing them into living in small groups in different places.‎ People used to focus on protecting these habitats. But biologists realize now that young jaguars move from one place to another in their hunt for mates（伴侣）and food. They may travel up to 500 miles through the edges of villages or cities. It is a dangerous journey.‎ Scientist Alan Rabinowitz is president of an organization devoted to saving wild cats. One day, while studying a map of all the known areas jaguars live in, Rabinowitz decided to play a game of connecting the dots（点）. He drew a line between one area and another area. Suddenly he thought of an idea that could help save this threatened species.‎ Rabinowitz realized that protecting the pathways is just as important as protecting the habitats themselves. He began an international project called “Path of the Jaguar” to check these pathways and make sure they won’t become dead ends. Things such as factories, highways and dams will stop jaguar in its tracks, forcing it off course.‎ Rabinowitz’s project works to persuade countries to limit industrial development that would block Jaguars’ pathways. These protected areas are not always connected. But these cats are smart-they run across open land in the dark. If they find a jungle with something to eat, they’ll stop to rest, just as you might pull over at a restaurant during a family road trip.‎ ‎28. What do we know about jaguars from the first paragraph?‎ A. Jaguars mainly live in North America at present.‎ B. Jaguars like to live in small groups in different areas.‎ C. Jaguars have been greatly affected by human activities.‎ D. Jaguars habitats have already been destroyed completely.‎ ‎29. Why do young jaguars often travel a lot?‎ A. To find new habitats.‎ B. To avoid natural enemies.‎ C. To stay away from humans.‎ D. To look for food and mates.‎ ‎30. Why did Rabinowitz set up “Path of the Jaguar”?‎ A. To protect jaguars’ pathways.‎ B. To stop jaguars running away.‎ C. To protect the habitats of jaguars.‎ D. To find out how jaguars travel.‎ ‎31. What can we infer from the last paragraph?‎ A. Jaguars always stay still in a jungle during the day.‎ B. Jaguars know how to safely travel to different areas.‎ C. Jaguars like to stay near a restaurant while travelling.‎ D. The habitats of jaguars are all connected with each other.‎ D You don’t notice it, of course, but while you’re asleep, your brain is still active. As people sleep, their brains pass through five stages of sleep. Together, stages 1, 2, 3, 4, and REM (rapid eye movement) sleep make up a sleep cycle. One complete sleep cycle lasts about 90 to 100 minutes. So during an average night’s sleep, a person will experience about four or five cycles of sleep.‎ Stages 1 and 2are periods of light sleep from which a person can wake up easily. During these stages, eye movements firstly slow down and eventually stop during the second stage, heart and breathing rates slow down, and body temperature decreases. Stages 3 and 4 are deep sleep stages. It’s more difficult to awaken someone during these stages, and when awoken, a person will often feel ill and confused for a few minutes. It is this type of sleep that we need most when we are very tired.‎ The final stage of the sleep cycle is known as REM sleep because of the rapid eye movements that occur during this stage. During REM sleep, other physical changes take place-breathing becomes rapid, the heart beats faster, and the limb muscles（四肢肌肉）don’t move. This is the stage of sleep when a person has the most vivid（生动的）dreams.‎ Research shows that teens need at least 8.5 hours of sleep a night. But many teens don’t get enough sleep, usually because they’re busy and tend to cut down on sleep. But sleep problems can keep some teens awake at night even when they went to sleep. Over time, those nights of missed sleep can build into a sleep deficit. People with a sleep deficit are unable to concentrate, study, and work effectively. They may also suffer from mental problems.‎ ‎32. What happens in a complete sleep cycle?‎ A. 190 minutes passes.‎ B. The brain is always active.‎ C. Eye movement remains rapid.‎ D. A person experiences at most four sleep stages.‎ ‎33. What does a person look like if awoken in the third stage of sleep?‎ A. Aggressive. B. Normal. C. Energetic. D. Puzzled.‎ ‎34. A remembered dream most likely comes from.‎ A. stage1 B. stage 2 C. stage 3 and4 D. the final stage ‎35. What does the underlined phrase “a sleep deficit” in Paragraph 4 mean?‎ A. A lack of sleep. B. Sleeping too much.‎ C. Having trouble falling asleep. D. Having a bad night’s sleep.‎ 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。‎ How to Be a Good Listener to Your Family Communication is important for strong family relationships. However, if you don’t truly listen to others, it can be difficult to communicate. Here are some tips that can help you become a good listener.‎ Stay in the present. When listening to a family member, it’s important to stay in the present to make your family member feel heard and valued. 36 Instead, focus only on what’s being said. If you feel your mind wandering, return your thoughts to the speaker’s words.‎ ‎ 37 When listening to someone, you are often focusing on what you’re going to say next. Don’t think about how you feel or wish to respond. 38 Remember, you will be better equipped to think of a thoughtful response if you actually understand what’s being said.‎ Show you’re listening using non-verbal（非语言的）response. You want the speaker to feel valued. Make sure to show you’re listening. You can convey you’re paying attention via non-verbal responses. 39 Laugh when appropriate, and keep eye contact.‎ Ask questions for clarification（澄清）. 40 When someone finishes talking, ask for clarification if you don’t understand. This will convey you are truly listening to your family member and value their thoughts.‎ A. You can think it later.‎ B. Nod as the speaker talks.‎ C. Make sure to listen actively.‎ D. Part of listening is understanding.‎ E. These can bring the speaker pressure.‎ F. Focus on the speaker instead of your response.‎ G.
