21、Castel dell’ Ovo is one of Naples’ most famous monuments. It offers sweeping views over the city and Mount Vesuvius in the distance.

The Basics

The site on which Castel dell’ Ovo now stands has a long history, beginning as a settlement for Greek colonists(殖民地定居者). The current castle was built in the 15th century, and today, the 19th-century fishing village of Borgo Marinari, known for its excellent seafood restaurants and marina(游艇停靠区), sits at the base of the castle.

The Egg Castle

The origin of the castle’s name comes from a story about the Roman poet Virgil, who is said to have placed a magical egg in the foundations beneath where the castle now stands. As long as the egg stays well, Castel dell’ Ovo will remain standing.

Things to Know Before you Go

·Castel dell’ Ovo is a must-see for history and architecture enthusiasts.

·Admission to the castle and the museum is free.

·The inner halls of the castle are open to the public only during special events and exhibitions; the ramparts (城墙) and towers are always open.

·There is a lift from the ground floor to the ramparts, making the castle accessible to wheelchairs.

How to Get There

Castel dell’ Ovo is located in the Bay of Naples just off the coastal road. Bus 151 from the train station and 140 from the port stop at Castel dell’ Ovo.

When to Get there

The castle is open Monday through Saturday from 8:30 am to 7 pm, and Sundays and holidays from 8:30 am to 1:30 pm. The Prehistoric Museum is open only on weekends from 10 am to 1 pm. As Naples is one of Italy’s most visited cities, its sights can be very crowded in the high-season summer months. Visit in the early morning or late afternoon to avoid the crowds and to take advantage of the best light for taking photos from the castle’s towers.

22、阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中，选出最佳选项, 并在答题卡上将该选项的标号涂黑。

The literal meaning of philosophy is “love of wisdom”. But this meaning does not tell us very much. Unlike the other disciplines(学科)，philosophy cannot be defined by what you study, because it is actually unlimited. Anything can be the subject matter of philosophy: art, history, law, language, literature, mathematics, medicine, psychology, religion, science, and values. Philosophy is one of the world’s oldest subjects of study, and in fact, the other academic disciplines are directly related to philosophy. For this reason you get a Doctorate(博士学位) of Philosophy (Ph.D.) in biochemistry, or computer science, or psychology.

Two broad sub-fields of philosophy are logic and the history of philosophy. Logic is the science of argument and critical thinking. It provides sound methods for distinguishing good from bad reasoning. The history of philosophy involves the study of major philosophers and periods in the development of philosophy.

Of what use is philosophy? First it is useful in educational advancement. It is necessary for understanding other disciplines.  Only philosophy questions the nature of the concepts used in a discipline, and its relation to other disciplines. And through the study of philosophy, one develops sound methods of research and analysis that can be applied to any field.

There are a number of general uses of philosophy. It strengthens one’s ability to solve problems, to communicate, to organize ideas and issues, to persuade, and to take what is the most important from a large quantity of data.These general uses are of great benefit in the career field, not necessarily for obtaining one’s first job after graduation, but for preparing for positions of responsibility, management and leadership later on. It is very short-sighted after all, to take a course of studies only for the purpose of getting one’s first job. The useful skills developed through the study of philosophy have significant long-term benefits in career advancement. No other discipline systematically follows the ideals of wisdom, leadership, and capacity to resolve human conflict.

【1】According to Paragraph 1, philosophy can best be described as the study of ______.

A．social sciences

B．natural sciences

C．both social and natural sciences

D．the subject matter of politics

【2】With the study of philosophy, you can_______.

A．become a great leader

B．succeed in everything

C．find a good job soon after graduation

D．make progress in your career development

【3】According to the passage, which of the following statements is TRUE?

A．Philosophy is an independent discipline.

B．Logic helps you to become a better thinker.

C．The study of philosophy brings you immediate benefits.

D．The meaning of philosophy is too limited to define.

【4】From the passage, we can conclude ______.

A．not all the subjects have to do with philosophy

B．a person will get a Ph.D. if he/she studies philosophy

C．philosophy can be helpful for the study of any other subjects

D．philosophy is the only solution to all the problems to the world

23、It was a discovery that could change science. “We hit the jackpot (头奖) here,” said a British scientist, Guillem, about the discovery of a planet “more or less” like Earth that is orbiting Proxima Centauri, the star nearest to our solar system.

What do we know about this exciting new Earth? Well, Proxima b, or “Earth II” as you could call it, is a little bigger than our Earth. Also, since it is so much closer to its red dwarf star than we are to the sun, the sky on its world is orange without any blue at all, creating a forever sunset effect.

There are a lot of questions for life forms that could live on this new planet. As the Chicago Tribune wrote in an article: “First, as reporter Lois Lane asked Superman in the first movie, Do you eat? Do you have poetry? Do you have any interest in visiting other worlds? If so, put Earth on your Must See list.”

The discovery of the planet made the Chicago Tribune newspaper wonder if anyone had seen or heard of the U.S.’ space postcards from its Pioneer 10 and Pioneer 11 space probes, sent up into space in 1972 and the next year.

Included with the probes were pictures of a man and a woman, along with diagrams of the solar system. Gold records were also sent up into space on Voyager probes in 1977. If aliens on Proxima b had played the record, they would have found sounds and images that showed the incredible diversity of Earth.

Aliens might also have heard the message from former U.S. President Jimmy Carter: “This is a present from a small distant world… our sounds, our science, our images, our music, our thoughts and our feelings. We are trying to survive our time so we may live into yours. We hope someday, having solved the problems we face, to join a community of galactic (星系的) civilizations. This record represents our hope and our determination, and our good will in an … awesome universe.”

It might not be time to plan a visit to Proxima b just yet—even if it has an atmosphere—because first, we would need to invent a way to get there in less than the 78,000 years it would take at 36,000 mph (about 57,900 km/h).

“Proxima b looks to us like a promising Plan B, just in case things go really south on this blue planet,” the Chicago Tribune wrote.

【1】Which of the following is TRUE about Proxima b?

A．Proxima b is bigger and closer to the sun than Earth.

B．It is a newly discovered star in the solar system.

C．Proxima b has an atmosphere like the Earth

D．The sky of Proxima b turns orange at sunset.

【2】The postcards and records were sent up into space on probes to ________.

A．show off the incredible diversity of Earth to aliens

B．describe Earth and express friendly feelings to aliens

C．test if there were aliens in space

D．invite aliens to visit Earth

【3】What can be inferred from the last two paragraphs?

A．Earth will get worse and worse in the near future.

B．Proxima b seems to be an alternative living place.

C．We will be able to settle in Proxima b soon.

D．Proxima b is more suitable to live in than Earth.

【4】What is the main purpose of the passage?

A．To give advice on how to visit a new planet.

B．To illustrate the thrills of moving to a new home in space.

C．To prove that aliens really exist on other planets.

D．To report on the discovery of an interesting new planet.

24、   The word tolerance is widely used in liberal democracies （自由民主）． It indicates a positive meaning． Politicians urge us to be tolerant towards minorities． Educators teach us to be tolerant towards the other． The press is full of references to the need to display tolerance when faced with individuals or groups espousing a different view or holding a different religious belief． A tolerant society is an objective sought after by anyone who believes in the values of democracy． A tolerant individual is connected with virtuous qualities．

The question we must ask is whether we have been using the word tolerance fully aware of its meaning and whether we have applied it correctly to reflect what we really wish to convey．

The word tolerance means to bear， or to bear with． If I tolerate something or someone， I basically say that I am ready to bear it or him． I can tolerate a bad smell or a noisy neighbour． The act of toleration forces me to desist from conveying my objection to the existence of a phenomenon， which I find difficult to bear． A bad smell or a noisy neighbour is considered by me to be an objectionable phenomenon． By tolerating either of them， I am not transforming the bad smell or the noisy neighbour into positive phenomena． Let's be honest： I don't have a different taste when it comes to bad smells． I simply dislike it and hope that it disappears． I don't respect the noisy neighbour． I would rather have him stop at once the noise he is making so I can live in peace．

The subject tolerating is by nature not equal to the object being tolerated． If I tolerate you， I essentially say that I am above you and am prepared， although unwillingly， to bear with your presence or with your practices or opinions． That may be true in the case of an individual who is ready to tolerate the other． However， this attitude by such an individual， though empirically true， is hardly a virtue． Certainly， the fact that an individual， in reality， may merely tolerate the other or his opinion does not justify a government or any official authority promoting tolerance as a virtue． One cannot tolerate an equal being． True equality involves respect， not toleration． To respect the other as a distinctive person is hardly to tolerate him． This is the true meaning of equality： diversity existing in a mutually-respectful socio-legal setting．

A tolerant attitude involves the grant of a favour， not a right． The question we should ask ourselves is whether we would ever wish a parliament to make laws considering us， as individuals and as part of a collective entity or a permission to pursue certain actions interpreted as a favour rather than a right？ Indeed， would we ever wish anyone to listen to our views and accept us the way we are simply because he is kind enough to tolerate us？

【1】The first two paragraphs are mainly intended to show that ______ ．

A. tolerance is a symbol of liberal democracies

B. democratic society always advocates tolerance

C. people's understanding of tolerance is one-sided

D. tolerance can be applied to many situations

【2】The example of a bad smell and a noisy neighbour is raised to indicate that ______ ．

A. the writer are fed up with them

B. most people find them hard to tolerate

C. the writer isn't prejudiced against them

D. tolerating them isn't a virtuous act

【3】The main idea of Paragraph 4is that ______ ．

A. tolerance shows an unequal relationship

B. most people promote tolerance as a virtue

C. people should show respect for each other

D. tolerance has nothing to do with respect

【4】Which can be the best title for this passage？ ______

A. Tolerance and Respect B. What Is to Be Tolerated？

C. Is Tolerance a Virtue？ D. Should People Be Tolerant？

25、I remember doing the household chores to help my mother when I was nine. I________ changing the vacuum cleaner (真空吸尘器) bag and ________ things the machine did not suck up. Twenty years later, in 1978, with this lifelong dislike of the way the machine worked, I decided to make a________ one.

Easier said than done, of course. I didn’t realize that I would spend the next five years ________ my design, a process that resulted in 5,127 different prototypes (样机). By the time I made my 15th prototype, my third child was born. By 2,627, my wife and I were really________ our pennies. By 3,727, my wife was giving art lessons for some extra ________, and we were getting further and further into debt. These were tough times, but each failure brought me________ to solving the problem.

In the early 1980s, I started trying to get licensing ________ for my technology. The reality was very different, however. The major vacuum makers had built a business model based on the profits from bags and filters (滤网). No one would ________ my idea, not because it was a bad one, but because it was bad for________. But soon after, the companies that I had talked with started making machines like mine. I had to fight________ battles on both sides of the Atlantic to protect the patents on my vacuum cleaner.

I was still in ________ difficulties until 1993, when my bank manager personally ________ Lloyds Bank to lend me $1 million. Then I was able to go into production. Within two years, the Dyson vacuum cleaner became a best-seller in Britain.

Today, I still________ risk and the potential for failure as part of the process. Nothing________ the excitement of invention.
