Other phrases used in the novel，1ike“War is Peace”and “Freedom is slavery”are also still used now．Indeed，many people see Orwell’s book as a warning about what might happen if those in power become corrupted．‎ Even today，Orwell remains an influential voice. Often，writers achieve great fame and popularity，but they don’t affect how people live their everyday lives．UNESCO’S Memory of the World Programme recently decided to include a collection of Orwell’s writings on its register．‎ The Memory of the World register is similar to UNESCO’s world heritage site program，which protects places and buildings natural features in the world．According to its website，the idea behind the body is“that the world’s documentary evidence belongs to all”and should be “accessible forever to all”．‎ University College London，which proposed the idea to UNESCO，said in its application that Orwell’s work“had a great influence on human thought in all parts of the world，an influence that remain powerful today”．‎ ‎24．What do we know about Orwell?‎ A．He only wrote about imaginary worlds．‎ B．He liked to follow the style of other writers．‎ C．His works were based on his own experience．‎ D．His books were well-received during the Cold War．‎ ‎25．Orwell wrote the novel Nineteen eight-Four to_______．‎ A．warn people of the dangers of corruption B．present various conflicts with the government C．expose the cruelty of the war in the 20th century D．describe the serious effects of poverty in England ‎26．The passage mentioned some phrases from Orwell’s books mainly to__________．‎ A．stress his ideas are still popular today B．share some of his ideas with leaders C．show how he used language in a creative way D．explain how he described the dark side of society ‎27．Why would the Memory of the Word register include Orwell’s writings?‎ A．They are a huge literary success．‎ B．They introduced a new way of writing．‎ C．They shaped political systems in Western countries．‎ D．They continue to have a great effect on human thought.‎ ‎ C A child who suffers bullying(霸凌) usually has low self-esteem and their ability to learn and be successful at school is greatly lessened. Therefore, bullying must be stopped.‎ The best and most obvious way to stop bullying in schools is for parents to change the way they ‎ raise their children at home. Of course, this is much easier said than done and everyone raises their children differently. Bullies, however, come from homes where physical punishment is used and children have been taught that physical violence is the way to handle problems and “get their way”. Bullies usually also come from homes where the parents fight a lot, so children have been modeled on such violence. Parental involvement is often lacking in bullies’ lives and there seems to be little warmth.‎ Early intervention (干预) is truly the best way to stop bullying, but parents of the victims or therapists(治疗师) can’t alter the bully’s home environment. Some things can be done at the school level, however. Most school programs that address bullying apply a mul ti-faceted(多层面的) method to the problem.‎ Hand out questionnaires to all students and teachers and discuss if bullying is occurring. Define exactly what constitutes(构成) bullying at school. The questionnaire is a wonderful tool that allows the school to see how widespread bullying is and what forms it is taking. It is a good way to start to solve the problem.‎ Get the children’s parents involved in a bullying program. If parents of the bullies and the victims are not aware of what is going on at school, then the whole bullying program will not be effective. Stopping bullying in school takes teamwork and concentrated effort on everyone’s part. Bullying also should be discussed during parent-teacher conferences and PTA meetings. Parental awareness is the key.‎ In the classroom setting, all teachers should work with the students on bullying. Oftentimes even the teacher is being bullied in the classroom and a program should be set up to teach about bullying. Children understand modeling behaviors and role-play and acting out bullying situations is a very effective tool. Have students role-play a bullying situation.‎ ‎28. In the author’s opinion, bullies usually _____________.‎ A. Have extremely high self-esteem B. know little of the harm of violence B. Look forward to parental involvement D. experience or witness violence at home ‎29. What does the underlined word “alter” in paragraph 3 mean?‎ A. Understand B. change C. remove D. approach ‎30. Paragraph 5 suggests that it’s important to ______________.‎ A. make a punishment program effective ‎ B. B. let parents know their children are bullies C. find the key to improving security at school ‎ D. make parents conscious of bullying at school ‎31. What is the passage mainly about?‎ A. How to stop bullying in school. B. What leads to violence in schools.‎ C. What parents can do to stop bullying. D. How to comfort those who are bullied.‎ ‎ D National Treasure has Chinese audiences fired up. But don't confuse it with the Hollywood action film of the same name, in which the hidden history of the United States going back around 250 ‎ years is discovered. In the Chinese show, producers are lucky ----China has a much longer history, and their plan to introduce relics is welcomed by the Palace Museum in the Forbidden City, and eight key province-level museums. ‎ Yu Lei, director of the show, explained how items are chosen, "Our standard is not to choose the most precious items. We want the ones with most attractive stories. These cultural relics are like aged people. They have so much to tell us. If people are bored, there is something wrong with our methods, "she said. ‎ In each 100-minute period, three key exhibits from a museum are introduced by entertainment stars,called the"guardians of the national treasure", through short stage dramas, telling the history of the legends behind the items. Some lesser-known stories on ho w the items were unearthed are featured in the show. In the periods, people are also invited on stage to share their stories linked to such relics. Knowledge, entertainment, taste and an accessible approach have been put together in one show. When people see cultural relics in this lively way, they feel history. ‎ The aim of the show is not to create a hit program but to attract more people to museums. More seasons of National Treasure are planned, and some treasures from the show are to be featured in a touring exhibition soon after the first season ends. A show like this fuels people's pride in their country.‎ ‎32. We can learn that National Treasure is a(n)___________.‎ ‎ A historical program aimed to create a hot topic ‎ B. Hollywood action film telling American history ‎ C. Chinese show introducing relics through short dramas ‎ D exhibition welcomed by nine province-level museums ‎33.

Who may be invited to introduce the exhibits?‎ ‎ A. Film experts.‎ ‎ B. Ordinary people.‎ ‎ C. Museum guides.‎ ‎ D. Entertainment stars.‎ ‎35. In which part of a newspaper can you most probably read the text?‎ A Science. B.Culture. C Economy. D.
