In white shirt, blue pants, black cloth shoes and two pigtails, Jingqiu gives off an air of great “pure beauty” in Zhang Yimou’s new movie Under the Hawthorn Tree, which tells the story of the sad romance of Jingqiu and a handsome young man named Laosan set at the end of the “cultural revolution”(1966 - 1976).
Before it was released, moviegoers foresaw what this “pure beauty” could be. Director Zhang complained of how long it had taken him to find the right girl for the part of Jingqiu - a character so innocent. She believes that simply lying on the same bed as a man will make her pregnant.
It was 18 -year- old Zhou Dongyu who stood out from the crowd. According to Zhang, Zhou has “eyes that are clear like a fountain on a mountainside”. Born to an ordinary worker’s family, the Shijiazhuang girl was in her final year of high school and working hard for a place in an art college.
“If you have fair skin and clear eyes, as Jingqiu does, it is easy to look pure. Girls today wear so many jewels and make - up--that’s the reason Zhang was not interested,” said Du Yanlai, 17, of Chengdu.
While some teenagers consider such “pure” beauty unreal, others believe that it speaks of something soulful.
Purity is all about an innocence that shines through from within, thinks 16 -year- old Tan Mengxi of Nanjing. “Being pure can be simple, not having complicated thoughts and being inexperienced. However, it doesn’t mean an ignorant or naive person. So, a person is pure in his or her nature if he or she is always enthusiastic and able to deal with difficult matters independently. This purity doesn’t pass with time, ”she said.
56. What’s the real purity according to Tan Mengxi?

A. Being ignorant and native.
B. Having eyes as clear as a fountain.
C. Not wearing so many jewels and make - up.
D. Being simple, enthusiastic and able to manage things alone. 57. What can we infer from the passage?
A. Zhou Dongyu, who was 18, was from an art college. B. Many young girls in China are eager to stand out.
C. Different people have different opinions about purity. D. Director Zhang disliked those girls with so many accessories(饰物)and make -up.
58. The main idea of the passage is ________. A. What makes a pure girl
B. Why Chinese girls want to be pure
C. Why Director Zhang selected Miss Zhou as the leading star
D. How people like the movie Under the Hawthorn Tree

The old couple who lived in a cottage on the edge of the village were envied for the happiness of their marriage. They never quarreled and were always affectionate to one another. Sadly, after thirty - four years of this happiness, the husband became ill and died.
The wife was overcome with grief. Her children tried to comfort her, but in vain. Her neighbors tried to comfort her, but with similar lack of success. Weeks and months went by, and still the woman was grieving; tears fell down her cheeks from morning till night.
Then a holy man came to the village. People told him about the woman, and asked him to try to help her. The holy man went to the woman’s house. Dressed in his rough woolen robe, he sat down with the grieving widow and listened, carefully, to her story. When she had spilled out all her
sorrow, he reached into one of the deep pockets in his robe, and drew out a tiny, little mustard(芥末)seed. “I think I may have a cure for your grief,” he said. “I want you to go round the people in this region, and look for a family that has no sorrows. When you find this family, give them this little mustard seed, and then come back to me.
The woman set off in search of such a family. She visited every home in the district, and talked to the people. She listened to their stories, just as the holy man had listened to hers. In time, she almost forgot about the mustard seed, because every single family she met was carrying some kind of sorrow.
One day, she happened to meet the holy man again, and he stopped to ask how she was feeling. She was surprised at first, at his question, and then she suddenly remembered the mustard seed, still safely in her purse. “I’m sorry, I haven’t found a family without sorrows yet,” she told him. “But you yourself are cured of your grief,” he smiled. “The mustard seed is a great healer!” 59. What does the underlined word “grieving” mean?

Scientists who try to predict earthquakes have gotten some new helpers recently -animals.
That’s right, animals. Scientists have begun to understand what farmers have known for thousands of years. Animals often seem to know in advance that an earthquake is coming, and they show their fear by acting in strange ways. Before a Chinese quake in 1976, snakes awoke from their winter sleep early only to freeze to death in the cold air. Cows broke their halters (缰绳)and tried to escape. Chickens refused to enter their cage. All of this unusual behavior, as well as physical changes in the earth, warned Chinese scientists of the coming quake. They moved people away from the danger zone and saved thousands of lives.
One task for scientists today is to learn exactly which types of animal behavior predict quakes. It’s not an easy job. First of all not every animal reacts to the danger of an earthquake. Just before a California quake in 1977, for example, an Arabian horse became very nervous and tried to break out of his enclosure. The Australian horse next to him, however, remained perfectly calm. It’s also difficult at times to tell the difference between normal animal restlessness and “earthquake nerves”. A zoo keeper once called earthquake researchers to say that his cougar(美洲狮)had been acting strangely. It turned out that the cat had an upset stomach.
A second task for scientists is to find out exactly what kind of warnings the animals receive. They know that animals sense far more of the world than humans do. Many animals can see, hear, and smell things that people do not even notice. Some can sense tiny changes in air pressure, gravity, or the magnetism of Earth. This extra sense probably helps animals predict quakes.
A good example of this occurred with a group of dogs. They were shut in an area that was being shaken by a series of tiny earthquakes. (Several small quakes often come before or after a large one. ) Before each quake a low booming sound was heard.
高考学习网-中国最大高考学习网站Gkxx.com | 我们负责传递知识!
Each boom caused the dogs to bark wildly. Then the dogs began to bark during a silent period. A scientist who was recording quakes looked at his machine. It was acting as though there were a loud noise too. The scientist realized that the dogs had reacted to a booming noise. They also sensed the tiny quake that followed it. The machine recorded both, though humans felt and heard nothing.
In this case there was a machine to monitor what the dogs were sensing. Many times, however, our machines record nothing extraordinary, even though animals know a quake is coming. The animals might be sensing something we measure but do not recognize as a warning. Discovering what animals sense, and learning how they know it is a danger signal, is a job for future scientists.
63. Through the passage the writer hopes to explore _______.
A. how much animals know about an earthquake B. why animals not men have good sense of danger C. how animals know when an earthquake is coming
D. why animals send a danger signal before an earthquake 64. During an earthquake in China in 1976, _________. A. chickens refused to go out of their cage B. snakes were frozen to death in their caves C. snakes awoke from their winter sleep earlier
D. cows broke their halters and escaped from their sheds
65. Which of the following is one of earthquake nerves according to the passage? A. A cat acted very strangely in a zoo. B. An Australian horse was perfectly calm. C. A cougar had an upset stomach unexpectedly.
D. An Arabian horse tried to escape from his enclosure.
66. The scientists did an experiment with a group of dogs so as to _______. A. figure out what exact warnings animals sent B. prove that animals could sense more than humans
C. compare the reactions of animals with those of humans
D. make sure that the machine could record unusual happenings

Drunken driving - sometimes called America’s socially accepted form of murder - has become a national epidemic (流行病). Every hour of every day about three Americans on average are killed by drunken drivers, adding up to an incredible 250,000 over the past ten years. A drunken driver is usually referred to as one with 0.10 - blood alcohol content or roughly three beer glasses of wine or shots of whisky drunk within two hours. Heavy drinking used to be an acceptable part of the American manly image and judges were merciful in most courts, but the drunken killing has recently caused so many well - publicized tragedies, especially concerning young children, that public opinion is no longer so tolerant.
Twenty states have raised the legal drinking age to 21, reversing a trend in the 1960s to reduce it to 18. After New Jersey lowered it to 18, the number of people killed by 18 - 20 years old drivers more than doubled, so the state recently upped

it back to 21.
Reformers, however, fear raising the drinking age will have little effect unless accompanied by educational programs to help young people to develop “responsible attitudes” about drinking and teach them to resist peer pressure to drink.
Though new laws have led to increased arrests and tests in many areas already, to a marked drop in accidents, some states are also punishing bars for serving customers too many drinks. A bar in Massachusetts was fined for serving six or more double brandies to a customer who was “obviously drunk” and later drove off the road, killing a 9 - year - old boy.
As the accidents continue to occur daily in every state, some Americans are even beginning to speak well of the 13 years national prohibition of alcohol that began in 1919, which President Hoover called the “noble experiment”. They forgot that legal prohibition didn’t stop drinking, but encouraged political corruption and organized crime. As with the booming drug trade generally, there is no easy solution.
67. From paragraph one, we can know that ________.
A. most Americans prefer drinking B. It is hard to avoid heavy drinking
C. Americans are not shocked by traffic accidents D. many Americans are killed by drunk drivers
68. We can infer from the fact of the traffic accidents in New Jersey that _______. A. Young drivers were usually bad.
B. Drivers should not be permitted to drink. C. The legal drinking age should be raised.
D. Most drivers hoped to raise the legal drinking age.
69. In America, public opinion about drunken driving has changed because ________. A. judges are no longer merciful
B. the problem has drawn public attention C. new laws are introduced in some states
D. drivers do not appreciate their manly image
70. Which of the following best shows the writer’s opinion of drunken driving? A. It may contribute to organized crime. B. Solving this problem is difficult.
C. The new laws can prevent heavy drinking. D. There should be no bars to serve drinks.
