In 1986, Leila Cohoon opened a museum in Independence‎, ‎Missouri, to show her collection of more than 2, 000 pieces of hair-based art collected over 30 years. Built as the only hair museum in the world, it includes more than 400 braided hair wreaths(花环) and 2,000 pieces of jewellery dating back to the mid-1600s. “My museum is filled with other people’s families,” Leila says. “It tells a story. ”‎ International‎ UFO Museum and ‎Research‎ ‎Center On July 7, 1947, a farmer discovered mysterious metallic debris(金属碎片) in his farm outside Roswell, New Mexico. Roswell Army Air Field (RAAF) originally said it recovered a flying disc. The next day, RAAF changed its words: The object was a weather balloon. Stories of a UFO and a government cover-up spread. Each year, 180,000 people check out the dirt from the UFO crash site, photos, and reports about the Roswell incident.‎ Museum‎ of ‎Bad‎ Art Not all art is created equal. After finding an oil painting in the rubbish in 1993—the now classic Lucy in the Field with Flowers—Scott Wilson started collecting bad art. Before long, he showed his finds at the Somerville movie theater. The Museum of Bad Art (MOBA) gives the public a firsthand look at some of the world’s worst “disaster-pieces”. Popular paintings include Mona Lisa, Hollywood Lips, and Drilling for Eggs. “MOBA is always on the lookout for the best of the worst,” said co-founder Marie Jackson. “But what an artist considers to be bad doesn’t always meet our low standards. ”‎ Mutter‎ ‎Museum Welcome to the Mutter Museum in Philadelphia‎, ‎Pennsylvania—home to more than 5,000 brains, bones, and dead bodies! In 1858, Dr. Thomas Dent Mutter gave his collection of preserved body parts, and bones to the College‎ of ‎Physicians to improve medical education, which led to the museum’s creation in 1863. Today, Mutter is the most famous medical museum in America, housing a wall of bones, and pieces of Albert Einstein’ s brain.‎ ‎21. What is special about Leila’s Hair‎ ‎Museum?‎ A. It is full of family stories.‎ B. It houses the world’s greatest photos.‎ C. It holds collections from around the globe.‎ D. It was opened to remember Leila’s loved ones.‎ ‎22. What can you find in the Mutter‎ ‎Museum?‎ A. Photos about the Roswell incident. B. Some of Albert Einstein’s brain.‎ C. 2,000 pieces of jewellery. D. Mona Lisa.‎ ‎23. What do the four museums have in common?‎ A. They are newly-founded museums. B. They are art-centered.‎ C. They are unpopular among visitors. D. They are quite unusual.‎ B When Randy Heiss went hiking behind his Patagonia, Ariz.‎ farm, the last thing he expected to find was a Christmas list from a little girl across the US-Mexico border. “I found this balloon on my morning walk near Patagonia on Sunday. Attached to it was a piece of paper with the Christmas wishes from a little girl,” Heiss wrote on his Facebook page.‎ When he brought the list home to his wife, who speaks fluent Spanish, they determined that the little girl had asked for Enchantimals toys, clothes, art supplies and various other gifts. That's when Heiss set out to make the little girl's Christmas dreams come true. Heiss said he had attempted to send Christmas letters to Santa Claus via balloon when he was a kid but never received a response.‎ Heiss sent a Facebook message on Wednesday to XENY, a radio station in Nogales, to see if it could help him track down the girl or her family. He later received a response from the station, which had determined the author of the letter was an 8-year-old girl named Dayami, and the station wanted to set up a meeting between the two on Thursday. “It just changed my entire day,” Heiss told the Washington Post. “Instead of going back to my office in Bisbee, I went with my wife to Walmart. “‎ The couple bought almost everything on Dayami's list. They also brought a few gifts for Dayami's little sister, Ximena. They told the children they were “ ayudantes de Santa,” or Santa's helpers.‎ Heiss,60, said the experience was very healing for him and his wife. Nine years ago,the couple's only son died. “ Being around children at Christmas time has been absent in our lives,” Heiss said. We now have friends for life. For a day, that border fence with its concertina wire melted away.‎ ‎24. How did Dayami send out her Christmas wishes?‎ A. By calling Heiss. B. By attaching them to a balloon.‎ C. By writing to a radio station. D. By sending a Facebook message.‎ ‎25. When did Heiss know what the girl exactly wanted?‎ A. After the help of his wife. B. When he found the balloon.‎ C. After their meeting in America. D. When he got a response from the radio station.‎ ‎26. What might make Heiss decide to fulfill the little girl's Christmas wishes?‎ A. His son's will. B. The girls request for help.‎ C. His similar unsuccessful experience. D. His desire to make friends with the girl.‎ ‎27. What can we infer from the last paragraph?‎ A. The couple got out of the pain completely.‎ B. The experience was a great relief to the couple.‎ C. The couple would help more children from Mexico.‎ D. There will be no border between countries one day.‎ C When people argue about whether coffee is good for health, they’re usually thinking of the health of the coffee drinker. Is it good for your heart? Does it increase blood pressure? Does it help you concentrate? However, coffee affects the health of the human population in other ways, too.‎ Traditionally, coffee bushes are planted under the canopy (树荫）of taller trees. However， more and more farmers in Latin America are deforesting the land to grow full-sun coffee. At first, this increases production because more coffee bushes can be planted if there aren’t any trees. With increased production come increased profits.‎ Unfortunately, deforesting for coffee production immediately decreases the local wildlife habitat, because native birds nest and hide from predators(捕食者）on the tall trees and migrating birds rest there.‎ Furthermore, in the long term, the full-sun method also damages the ecosystem because more chemical fertilizers and pesticides(杀虫剂) are needed to grow the coffee. The fertilizers and pesticides kill insects that eat coffee plants, and then the birds eat the poisoned insects and also die. The chemicals kill or sicken other animals as well, and can even enter the water that people will eventually drink.‎ Fortunately, farmers in Central and South America are beginning to grow more coffee bushes in the shade. We can support these farmers by buying coffee with such labels as “shade-grown” and ‘"bird-friendly”. Sure, these varieties might cost a little more. But we’re paying for the health of the birds, the land, ourselves, and the planet. I think it’s worth it.‎ ‎28. How do farmers get more land to grow full-sun coffee?‎ A. They move to other countries. B. They cut down trees.‎ C. They turn grassland into farmland. D. They buy more land from other farmers ‎29. Compared with the traditional method, what advantage does the full-sun method have?‎ A. It can increase the production of coffee. B. It can promote peopled health.‎ C. It can provide more nests for birds. D. It can protect the ecosystem.‎ ‎30. Which opinion does the author agree with?‎ A. People should buy full-sun coffee.‎ B. Farmers should change the places to grow coffee.‎ C. Shade-grown coffee should be supported.‎ D. Pesticides should be forbidden in coffee planting.‎ ‎31. What can we learn from the passage?‎ A. It is quite worthwhile to buy shade-grown coffee at any cost.‎ B. Farmers all have realized the importance of protecting the environment now.‎ C. The full-sun method does good to the health of human beings in the long run.‎ D. South American farmers are taking action to plant coffee bushes in the traditional way.‎ D Scientists have identified the order of the gene of the giraffe for the first time to help explain how the tallest animals on earth developed their remarkably long necks.‎ Being a giraffe is not easy. To pump blood two meters up from the chest to the brain calls for a powerful heart and twice the blood pressure of other mammals. Giraffes also need special safety system to let them bend down for a drink and raise their heads again without feeling dizzy.‎ The animals’ unique body structure has long been a puzzle for biologists, including Charles Darwin. Now, by comparing the gene of the giraffe with its closest relative, the short-necked okapi, scientists have solved part of the puzzle by studying changes in a small number of genes responsible both for regulating body shape and circulation. This suggests that the development of a long neck and a powerful heart went hand in hand, driven by a relatively small number of genetic changes.‎ The interpretation of the genetic factors behind the giraffe's remarkable heart system could also be instructive for human health, since the animals appear to avoid the kind of organ damage often found in people with high blood pressure.‎ The more fundamental question of why giraffes developed their long necks remains open, however. The apparently self-evident idea that it was to reach ever-higher food supplies has been challenged in the past 20 years by a competing belief that it is actually due to competition among ‎ fighting males for females.‎ Unlike long-necked birds, which have additional vertebrae (椎骨)，giraffes have the same seven vertebrae found in all mammals, although theirs are greatly extended.‎ ‎32. A strong heart is very important for a giraffe because it________________________.‎ A. keeps the giraffe safe in different environments.‎ B. pumps blood to the brain high above its body.‎ C. helps the giraffe find a drink at lower places.‎ D. keeps the blood pressure at a normal level.‎ ‎33. Scientists compare the gene of the giraffe and the short-necked okapi because the latter_____.‎ A. has a quite special body structure. ‎ B. has gone through few genetic changes.‎ C. is a puzzle worth further study. ‎ D. is in the same family as the giraffe.‎ ‎34. Which possibly caused the giraffe to develop a long neck?‎ A. Its attempts to attract females. B. Its favorite food at high places.‎ C. Its need to avoid organ damage. D. Its greatly-extended vertebrae.‎ ‎35. What’s the author’s purpose of writing this passage?‎ A. To describe giraffes body structure. B. To explain genetic changes in animals.‎ C. To introduce a new finding of science. D. To challenge a belief of twenty years.‎ 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。‎ Travel is one of the activities people carry out most often during their spare time.

Today we’re going to look at the wide differences in family life between the rich and the poor in Victorian times. Let’s begin with the upper classes. In Victorian times, the upper classes made up less than 3% of the population, yet held more than 90% of the country’s wealth.

The money which they did earn, they sent to their families. Many servants came from the countryside. Among them were cooks, cleaners, gardeners and so on. The family would also employ a child’s nurse whose main role was to care for the children. She was responsible for teaching the children how to behave and taking care of them when they were ill. Nurses did not, however, educate the children. Generally, children from wealthy families didn’t attend school outside the family home. Tutors would come to the house to do this.

Some schools were set up with money from the upper classes so that poor children could have some form of education. Additionally, most Victorian parents were very proud of their children.
