In ancient China, bell and drum towers used to play the role of clocks in telling people the time. The bell sounded at dawn (黎明) and drum at dusk (黄昏). Today, bell and drum towers remain in some time-honored cities like Beijing and Xi’an. The bell and drum towers in Xi’an are symbols of the city’s rich past and are among the largest and best-preserved (保存最完好的) of their kind in China.

The Bell Tower sits at the very center of Xi’an. It is 36 meters high. It was built in 1384 and moved to its present location in 1582. Four busy roads cross just under the tower. Visitors need to use an underground walkway to reach the tower. Inside the tower, there is a small museum that houses a huge bell as well as some handwritten records on the history of the tower.

The Drum Tower is about 200 meters to the northwest of the Bell Tower. It is a small building. It lies next to a busy street where many restaurants and shops are located. It was built 4 years earlier than the Bell Tower. It is also one of the largest drum towers in China, with a height of 34 meters.

There is a square sitting between the Bell Tower and the Drum Tower. It is the best place to watch the two towers. According to the tourists, the two towers are more impressive in the evening as the lights add beauty to them. Don’t miss them when you take a trip to Xi’an!

25、Most of us are used to using jet hand dryers (喷射式干手器) in public restrooms. They are surely very convenient — all we need to do is to hold up our hands for a few seconds until they are dry. And more importantly, they’re supposed to be hygienic (卫生的).

However, a new study published in the journal Hospital Infection found that jet hand dryers actually spread more dangerous bacteria (细菌) than paper towels.

In the study, two restrooms in each of three different hospitals in the UK, France and Italy were required to provide both jet air dryers and paper towels for people to use. But on certain days, only either the hand dryer or the paper towel dispenser (自动出纸机) was available to use.

The scientists found that when only the hand dryer was available, the amount of bacteria in the restrooms was 27 times higher than on other days.

According to study leader Mark Wilcox, an expert in medical microbiology at Leeds University, UK, air dryers spread harmful bacteria all over the room. This means that if people use these dryers, they’re more likely to pick up bacteria.

At the same time, however, this raises the question — why the bacteria exists(存在) if people wash their hands after using the restroom.

“The problem starts because some people do not wash their hands properly,” Wilcox told The Telegraph. In other words, poor hand-washing leads to a large amount of bacteria being left on your hands.

【1】It was found that the restrooms had more bacteria when __________.

A．only the hand dryer was available to use

B．only paper towels were available to use

C．both the hand dryer and the paper towel dispenser were available to use

D．neither the hand dryer nor the paper towel dispenser were available to use

【2】According to the last paragraph, how can we stop bacteria?

A．By only using clean restrooms.

B．By not using public restrooms.

C．By using paper towels.

D．By washing our hands properly.

【3】If we divide the article into three parts, which one can be the best?

A．①/②③④⑤/⑥⑦

B．①/②③/④⑤⑥⑦

C．①/②③④⑤⑥⑦

D．①②/③④⑤⑥⑦

【4】What can we infer from the passage??

A．Modern technology causes more problems.

B．Good habits can protect you from danger.

C．It’s common to pick up bacteria public places.

D．Scientists will find a way to improve hand dryers.

26、Is there a connection between music and language? According to recent studies, the answer is yes: Music helps develop certain language abilities in the brain.

A study from Northwestern University shows that playing a musical instrument can improve a person’s hearing ability. As a part of the study, two groups of people listened to a person talking in a noisy room. The people in the first group were musicians, while those in the second group had no musical training. The musicians were found to be able to hear better, because they learn to pay attention to certain sounds.

For example, when the violinists play in a band, they must listen closely to what they are playing and ignore the other sounds. In this way, musicians can hear certain sounds better, even in a room with lots of noise.

Gotfried Schlaug, a doctor at Harvard Medical School, works with stroke (中风) patients. Because of their illness, these people cannot say their names, addresses, or other information normally. However, they can still sing. Dr. Schlaug was surprised to use singing words to help his patients finally speak. Why does this work? Schlaug isn’t sure. Music seems to be able to make different parts of the brain active, including the bad parts. In some way, this helps patients use those parts of the brain again.

So music is not only enjoyable, but also good for us in many other ways. “Playing an instrument or singing,” says Nina Kraus, “can help us do better in school and keep our brain sharp as we get older.”

【1】What were the people asked to do in the study?

A．Listen to different kinds of music.

B．Make some noise in a room.

C．Give some people musical training.

D．Listen to a person talking in a noisy room.

【2】What does the writer use the example of violinists to explain?

A．How musicians play in a band.

B．How musicians make beautiful sounds.

C．Why musicians have better hearing ability.

D．Why musicians are afraid of lots of noise.

【3】What does the word “ignore” mean in the third paragraph?

A．Listen to.

B．Look at.

C．Find out.

D．Pay no attention to.

【4】How did Gotfried Schlaug help his stroke patients speak?

A．By playing music for them.

B．By using singing words.

C．By fixing the bad parts of their brains.

D．By teaching them to play instruments.

【5】What can be a proper title for the text?

A．Ways of Playing Music

B．Advice about Making Brains Active

C．Results of Studying Stroke Patients

D．Connection between Music and Language

27、So far, a few big changes in people’s life in China have drawn the world’s attention. Among them, four ideas stand out. They are known as “China’s four great modern inventions”.

High-speed trains

China’s new high-speed train Fuxing made its first run from Beijing to Shanghai on 21st September, 2017. It ran at a speed of 350 km/h, which makes it the fastest train in the world. Actually, the high-speed train has became a new name card for China overseas (在海外).

Bike sharing

Besides the high-speed train, many other innovations (创新) have also changed people’s lives in China. Bike sharing, for example, is not a new idea but China has given it a whole new meaning. In China, there are about 10 million shared bikes. People don’t need to find stations to put the bikes. This makes bike sharing much easier.

Cashless payment (无现金支付)

Suppose you are riding a bike on the street and stop to buy a bottle of water without any money on you. Don’t worry. In China, now you are able to just shop by paying with your cellphone. All you need to do is just to scan a store’s quick response code (QR code,二维码). Even a vegetable seller on the roadside has a QR code for WeChat Pay or Alipay.

Online shopping

As for shopping, China has many big online shopping platforms, such as Taobao, Tmall and JD.com. Some foreign customers have even made foreign-language websites to help foreigners buy products from China.

【1】Which is NOT one of “China’s four great modern inventions” according to the passage?

A．High-speed trains.

D．Cashless payment.

【2】Why has the high-speed train became a new name card for China?

A．It is made overseas.

B．The ticket is cheap.

C．It has the fastest speed.

D．Tt has a large number of passengers.

【3】What does the underlined word “scan” in paragraph 4 mean in Chinese?

C．foreigners can’t buy products from China on the shopping platforms

28、根据首字母提示补全短文

Shanghai, a beautiful city during the day, becomes even more wonderful at night.

At the end of the day, both the older part of the city around the Bund and the more  m【1】 buildings in Pudong are full of colorful bright lights. The buildings, both new and old, look c【2】 different and very exciting.

If you look across the Huangpu River, you can see the brilliant Oriental Pearl TV Tower and the Jinmao Tower. Take a boat a【3】 the river and you can see the amazing nightlife on the Bund. There are more than 30 tour boats, including ancient dragon boats in the Ming and Qing styles and boats made in the Shikumen style.

If you prefer w【4】 in the streets, try the famous Nanjing Road Pedestrian Street (步行街). There are busy shops and cafes and you will see thousands of local people enjoying themselves. Most of the shops close at 10 pm but at that time, teahouses are still open. In fact, some of them are open 24 hours a day. Karaoke bars and coffee houses are also popular nightlife places where you can meet friends and make new o【5】.

If you are in Shanghai for the first time, make sure you also visit Xingtiandi, a very popular

a【6】 where you can see buildings in Western and Chinese styles side by side. Xingtiandi is a great place for young people, but it may be a little n【7】 for older visitors! A quieter place to visit is Park 97, near the west gate of Fuxing Park, Luwan District. Park 97 opened in 1997 and you can find clubs and international restaurants like Baci where you can get Italian food and Tokyo Joe’s, a Japanese restaurant.

29、People who have special needs for children understand that even small success means a lot. We’ve learned to respect people who work very hard to do _________ things, like learning to tie shoes.

My eight-year-old son, Brian, wanted to win an award(奖，奖金) by learning to tie his own shoes. He was given ten days to prepare for the goal. Because Brian has Down syndrome(唐氏综合症), our whole family  _________ him. Days passed and he could not do it and he cried. We cried with him. The day came for the meeting. We were worried about our lack of ability to teach such a simple task and spoke _________ about not taking him to the meeting that night. We didn’t want to make him sad.

I nearly opened my _________ to tell him that it wasn’t important for him to learn to tie his shoes. But before I did that, his older sister _________ a new idea.

＂Brian,＂ she softly asked, ＂why don’t you try closing your eyes? See if you can tie your shoes in your imagination. That way, if you get up to go someplace early before the sun comes up, you can tie your shoes in the  _________ .＂

Brian sat, with eyes closed, and tied his shoes perfectly. We looked at each other excitedly. And then we _________ to his meeting.

Brian went first. He, with eyes closed, _________ an award that might weight more than an Olympic Gold Medal. Tears of joy fell.

Brian turned something difficult into something ordinary, small and simple. When he found a new _________ to solve the problem, it became an important event because it was really difficult for him. We all cheered for him. Brian still ties his shoes as his big sister suggested so many years ago.
