24、Movies for the Blind?

  When you think of the cinema, the phrase "watching a movie" probably comes to mind, and, in fact, moviemakers work very hard to make their films interesting visually. But movies also contain stories, dialogues, music and sound effects --- things that people don't need to see in order to enjoy.

  Movie reviewer Marty Klein has created a website to help visually impaired (受损的) people choose movies that they can follow without the help of an assistant to explain what is happening on the screen. Klein gives movies a rating from 1 to 10 based on several factors. A movie receives a high rating if there are only a few main characters whose voices are easy to recognize. Klein also likes an interesting story without too many changes in time and place. A large amount of dialogue between the characters is better than long silences or noisy action scenes.

  Of course, visually impaired people can enjoy many films with the help from a friend who doesn’t mind explaining the parts of a movie that can only be seen. But that means that someone is talking during the movie, which could annoy some audience members. It also means that these people cannot go to the movies independently. To solve these problems, some movie theaters have begun to offer recorded audio descriptions of the movements, scenery, and special effects that other audience members can see on the screen. Visually impaired moviegoers receive a wireless headset to wear during the movie. This allows them to listen to the narration (叙述) while still hearing a movie's music and other sounds that surround them in the theater.

  Another blind movie reviewer, Jay Forry, writes movie reviews that are published on his website. He also writes for newspapers and is a guest on radio shows. Forry gives movies one of five ratings, including, "So good, blind people will like it" and "I'm glad I couldn't see it." Forry became a writer after going blind at the age of 20 and he decided to go to college. His first articles appeared in the college newspaper, and Forry's writing skills and sense of humor are what keep people reading his reviews or listening to them on the radio. After "watching" The Sixth Sense, Forry commented that he thought the movie was excellent, but that he envied the boy who was the main character: "He had six senses, and I only have four."

【1】Which movie might receive a good rating from Marty Klein?

A. A action film with many fight scenes.

B. A science fiction movie about time travel into the past and the future

C. A romantic comedy with four main characters and lots of conversations.

D. An adventure with many explosions and special effects.

【2】According to the article, how are some movie theaters dealing with the problem of blind people going to movies?

A. They are asking the assistants not to annoy the other audience members.

B. They are providing headsets so blind people can hear a recorded narration.

C. They are providing trained employees to describe the movie to blind people.

D. They are asking blind people to enjoy the music and the other sounds in the theater.

【3】What is the main idea of the article?

A. More and more blind people enjoy going to movies.

B. Marty Klein and Jay Forry write movie reviews for blind people.

C. Moviemakers are trying to make films more interesting for the blind.

D. Movie reviews and new technologies make it easier for the blind to enjoy the movies.

25、   From deserts（沙漠）and beaches to playgrounds， we can find sand everywhere. But you might not know that sand is also useful.

"Sand is the second most-used things in the world after water，" the BBC reported. However， the UN said we might be running out of it.

Sand is made up of very small pieces of rock ， soil and minerals（矿物质）. It can take tens of thousands of years to form（形成）. But now we are using sand more quickly than it is being formed. According to the BBC， we use about 15 billion tons of sand every year to build houses， roads and other things. That 's enough to build a 20-meter-high and 20-meter-wide wall around the equator（赤道）every year.

People also put sand in the sea to make new islands. Singapore， for example， is now 20 percent bigger than it was in 1965. Palm islands are three large man-made islands in Dubai， United Arab Emirates. They took 94 million cubic meters of sand to build.

"If people keep using so much sand， it will run out in many places. For example ， Vietnam may run out of construction（建造）sand by 2020"， Live Science noted.

Since people need so much sand， they are trying to mine（开采）more of it. But this is bad for the environment. Mining sand may cause beaches to disappear and more floods to happen in places close to the sea. Also ，this may affect the habitats（栖息地）of many plants and animals.

【1】From the story ， we know sand___.

A.can only be found on beaches B.is the most-used things in the world

C.can never be used up D.can be used to build houses

【2】How is Singapore becoming bigger?

A.People build more houses in Singapore.

B.People build more roads in Singapore.

C.People put sand in the sea to make new islands.

D.People try to mine more sand.

【3】How many tons of sand do we use every year?

A.About 9 ，400 ，000. B.About 2 ，000 ，000 ，000.

C.About 2 ，000 ，000. D.About 15 ，000 ，000 ，000.

【4】What is the reason more floods will happen in places close to the sea?

A.Over mining of sand. B.The weather there.

C..The increasing size of certain islands. D.The death of some plants.

【5】What does the writer want to tell us?

A.The UN said，" Sand is the second most-used things in the world after water.

B.We shouldn't over mine sand.

C.People took 94 million cubic meters of sand to build Singapore.

D.Sand is not being formed so quickly as we are using it.

26、   In the eyes of many foreigners, Chinese are the best hosts (主人) and the worst guests in the world. They're not really bad guests, but because the guest­host relationship in China is much more different than in some Western countries. It appears they are not nice guests. And Western hosts sometimes look rude(粗鲁的) in the eyes of Chinese guests.

In China, guests are almost like gods. Whenever I enter a Chinese person's home, there is always fruit on the table for me, and someone is quick to bring me a cup of tea or water. In the West, generally the guest is not a god. Acting according to the host's way of doing things is usual behavior for a guest.

My wife's mother, a very kind elderly Chinese lady, doesn't smoke. When I see some of her guests smoking in her house, as a non­smoker, I feel unhappy. Usually I want to stop them directly, but I must realize that in China, to be a good host, she must not do that. In some North American homes, if you are a guest, and the hosts are not smokers, you should not smoke in their house. At the very least, you could ask, “Is it OK if I smoke?” But, don't be surprised if they say, “No, you can't smoke.” In our culture, if you smoke in their home, you are a bad guest, but if they do not allow you to smoke in their house, they are not a rude host.

Guests in China also have special habits. Some Western people may not adapt_to these habits very soon. Thankfully my wife is Chinese, so whenever we visit a Chinese family she tells me to buy them a gift. However, giving a gift to a host is not always necessary in my country. So, if you invite international guests to your house, don't be too surprised if they don't bring you a gift.

In China, you probably won't need to change the guest­host relationship very much because you will probably only be the host, and Chinese are naturally very good hosts. If Western hosts invite you to their house, try not to be too surprised if their style of treating you is not what you have expected.

【1】Many foreigners think that Chinese hosts are the ______in the world.

A.best B.worst C.most natural D.most difficult

【2】When a Western guest visits a Chinese family, he often ______.

A.buys some fruit B.feels like a god

C.wants some gifts D.takes a cup of tea

【3】If the writer's guests want to smoke in his house, what will he probably say?

A.It's OK if you smoke here.

B.Let's smoke together.

C.Sorry, you can't smoke here.

D.Smoking is a bad habit.

【4】What is the meaning of the underlined phrase “adapt to” in the passage?

A.Think back to. B.Get used to.

C.Look forward to. D.Keep close to.

【5】What is the main idea of this passage?

A.Foreigners should learn from Chinese.

B.Hosts must do things in the guests' way.

C.Western hosts are always nice to guests.

D.People should understand cultural differences.

27、   Why are some people better able to beat the flu than others? Part of the answer, according to a new study, is related to the first flu strain we met in childhood.

Scientists from UCLA and the University of Arizona have found that people’s ability to beat the flu virus is decided not only by the sub types of flu they have had throughout their lives, but also by the sequence (顺序) in which they have been infected by those viruses. Their study was published in PLoS Pathogens. The research offers an explanation for why some people become much worse than others when infected with the same strain of the flu virus.

In addition, UCLA scientists, including Professor James Lloyd-Smith, who was also a senior author of the PLoS Pathogens research, recently completed a study that analyzed (分析)travel-related screening(筛查) for the 2019-nCoV. The researchers reported that screening travelers is not very effective for the 2019 coronavirus ― that it will catch less than half of infected travelers, on average ― and that most infected travelers cannot be found out, meaning that they have no symptoms(症状)yet, and are unaware that they have been at high risk. So stopping the spread of the virus is not simply a matter of improving screening methods at airports and other travel centers.

“This puts the responsibility on government officials and public health officials to follow up with travelers after they arrive, to separate them and trace(追踪) their contacts if they get sick later,” said Lloyd-Smith, a UCLA professor of ecology and evolutionary biology(生态学和进化生物学). “Many governments have started to impose quarantines (隔离), or even travel bans, as they realize that screening is not enough to stop the spread of the coronavirus.”

One major concern, Lloyd-Smith said is that other countries, especially developing nations, lack the infrastructure(基础设施)and resources for those measures, and are therefore vulnerable to importing(输入) the disease. “Much of the public health world is very concerned about the virus being introduced into Africa or India, where large populations exist that are not able to receive advanced medical care,” he said.

【1】Why is the scientists’ research very important?

A.It explains the cause of the flu virus. B.It reduces the risk of people being infected.

C.It analyzes(分析) people’s ability to fight off the virus. D.It stops the spread of the flu virus all around the world.

【2】What do we know about the novel coronavirus from Paragraph 3?

A.Travelers are at high risk of being exposed to it.

B.It is more difficult to stop its spread than expected.

C.Most travelers infected with it are detected by screening.

D.It spreads especially quickly at airports and railway stations.

【3】Why does the writer mention Lloyd-Smith’s words in Paragraph 4?

A.To persuade people not to travel. B.To provide a method to kill the virus.

C.To show the harmful effects of the virus. D.To stress(强调) the responsibilities of officials.

【4】Which of the following best explains the underlined word “vulnerable” in the last paragraph?

A.Easy. B.Impossible. C.Responsible. D.Indifferent.

28、   I am a middle school student and I am fifteen years old. I'm quite 【1】 (health). However, one year ago I was fat. I loved chips and chocolate, and I got tired 【2】 (easy). One morning , I saw some young men running in the park. They looked really fit and active. So I started running from then on.
