If you explore the museum with a bit more time, the academia will offer you much more in the less crowded halls.‎ The Hall of the Colossus ‎ The academia welcomes visitors in the Hall of the Colossus, which takes its name from the huge models of the Dioscuri of Monte Cavallo which were displayed in this large hall in the 19th century. Your glance will fall upon the large number of panel paintings hanging on the four walls, such as works by Perugino. You might feel shocked at first sight but if you take a seat around Giambologna's plaster(石膏), you may comfortably enjoy this rich renaissance collection and recognize two of the most important works. ‎ The Galleria museum, as Florence's second most popular museum, also often has a long line. Despite the slightly higher cost of entrance, you could reserve your tickets online. ‎ Museum of Musical Instruments ‎ If you go crazy for opera, theater and classical music, the Academia is one of the best places you should visit. It hosts in fact the Grand dual collection of 40 instruments on show in the museum wing belonging to the Luigi Cherubini Conservatory. The collection shows that music played a primary role in the official celebrations of the Medicean Court. Discover the roots of the invention of the piano and explore the collection of violins, violoncellos and wind instruments. ‎ Admission ‎ Full €12. ‎ Reduced €2 + €4 pre-booking fee + online commissions depending on where you book online. ‎ Opening Hours ‎ Ticket office c loses at 6:20 pm; the museum starts closing at 6:40 pm. ‎ Open from 8:15 am to 6:50 pm, Tuesdays through Sundays, entrance every 15 minutes. ‎ ‎ *Closed on Mondays, January 1, May 1, and December 25. ‎ ‎56.

He learned its population had declined by 50 percent in the past 60 years. Most kids would have closed their book and forgotten about the endangered bird. But not Will. He was attracted by this “really cool bird”.‎ Will wanted to do something to help, and began staring at his feet. He came up with the idea of selling blue socks, so everyone could have blue feet like the blue - footed boo by. His dad helped find someone to make the socks, and they held a logo(标识) contest online. His younger brother Matts also wanted to be a part of the project, and came up with The Blue Feet Foundation(BFF) name. Together, the boys were ready to raise money to help save the blue-footed booby. ‎ At first, no one took the two kids seriously, and it was three months before they sold any socks. However, they have now sold more than 3,000 pairs of socks, with orders coming in from all 50 states and across 30 countries. They have already raised more than 40,000 for their cause. And, in 2017, they funded an exploration for Dr. David J. Anderson, a world-famous expert in blue-footed boobies, to study the population decline. ‎ The BFF has also attracted a large following on social media. Their followers post photos wearing the foundation's signature blue socks making appearances all over the world, including the Grand Canyon, the Great Wall of China and Stonehenge. “More people know about the blue-footed booby because of us,” says matt. ‎ Both boys understand the impact of giving back to the community. “We need to inspire people to help everyone else, so the world gets better,” Matts says. As for the future of the foundation, Matts says, “I hope we go out of business, because that means we saved the blue-footed booby.” ‎ ‎58. What did Will do to help the blue-footed booby? ‎ A. He distributed books about it. ‎ B. He sold blue socks to raise money for it. ‎ C. He made explorations with experts in it.‎ D. He held contests online for ideas of protecting it. ‎ ‎59. What does matt expect of the BFF? ‎ A. It’ll finally close down. ‎ B. It’ll include more experts in birds. ‎ C. It’ll save other endangered species.‎ D. It’ll expand its business to more countries. ‎ ‎60. What can we learn from the passage? ‎ A. Opportunity favors those with a curious mind.‎ B. Even kids can make a difference to the world.‎ C. Getting close to birds adds to the joy of kids’ life. ‎ D. Success is often followed by giving back to society. ‎ C Feeling lost in translation? In “The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy,” the sci-if world crafted by Douglas A dams, you’d just put a bright yellow bagel fish in your ear and simply be able to understand any mix of languages around you. ‎ While we aren’t quite there yet, language is becoming less of a barrier. “Understanding is going to become the new normal,” says Dave Limp, Amazon’s senior vice president of devices and services. To that end, today’s technology is helping to interpret and translate the world around us in ways that are in real time. ‎ Yet for all the gains achieved in translation over the past several years, don’t count on your phone, smart speaker, PC or ear device breaking down all the language barriers anytime soon — or providing an excuse to skip French class. ‎ Last year, researchers at the University of California, San Francisco found that the machine learning algorithm(算法) Goggle rolled out in 2017 was 92% accurate in translating a doctor’s orders from English to Spanish and 81% accurate from English to Chinese. Only 2% of the errors in Spanish and 8% in Chinese may have the potential to cause “clinic ally significant harm.”‎ ‎“Great if I’m in the 92%, not so great if I’m in the 8% as a patient who is being communicated something exactly the opposite of what the doctor (wanted to tell me),” says Jost Zetzsche, a spokesperson at the American Translators Association. ‎ ‎ Translation works best in controlled environments, or where there’ a lot of data training the models. There's a lot more data between English and Spanish, for example, than Finnish to Burmese. In training the systems, an intermediary(中间的) language such as English may be used, rather than a direct pairing from one less common language to another. ‎ A big breakthrough came in 2016 with the use of deep “neutral(神经的) network” technology that allowed machines to understand the context of an entire sentence, improving fluency. Earlier systems were limited because they had to break sentenced up into chunks(块). ‎ Many factors can throw things off, especially when a person's speaking. Think different accents, vocal speeds and audible disrupt ions such as “um” s and “uh” s. In addition, idioms and cultural specific phrased may not translate. ‎ ‎“Translation is typically a literal interpretation of what’s there as opposed to the meaning and the context,” says Rob Thomas, general manager of IBM Data and Watson AI. ‎ The literal English translation for the Spanish phrase “no hay mal porque bien no vengas,” says Andrew Ochoa, CEO and founder of Waverly Labs in Brooklyn, is “there's no bad that for good doesn’t come.” What you’re really trying to say: “Every cloud has a silver lining. These translation models are designed to pick up on that, but it doesn't always work perfectly,” Ochoa says. ‎ ‎61. The first paragraph serves as a(n) ________‎ A. comment B. advertisement C. introduction D. prediction ‎ ‎62. What does Jost Zetzsche think of Google's machine translation? ‎ A. It is inaccurate in controlled environments. ‎ B. at causes potential danger in some cases. ‎ C. It has made progress beyond his expectations. ‎ D. at has built a bridge between doctors and patients. ‎ ‎63. Which breakthrough was achieved in 2016 with translation machines? ‎ A. The translation was context-specific. ‎ B. Literal translation was avoided.‎ C. Long sentenced could be translated.‎ D. An inter me diary language was involved.‎ ‎64. What does the example of the translation of “no hay mal porque bien no vengas” show? ‎ A. Human translators will never be replaced.‎ B. Useless information should be ignored in translation. ‎ C. It is not easy to translate Spanish into English. ‎ D. Translation machines still have a long way to go. ‎ D Late civil rights pioneer Viola Desmond was chosen to appear on the $10 bill after the Bank of Canada requested submissions for iconic(偶像的) Canadian women to be featured on the bill. News that she had been selected came several months after the announcement that slave-turned-abolitionist harries Tubman would appear on the $20 bill in the U. S. ‎ It was a long road to get Desmond on the bill. When Desmond ultimately beat out the competition, however, Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau called her selection a “fantastic choice.” He described Desmond as a “businesswoman, community leader, and courageous fighter against racism.” So, why were her contributions to society so important that she was chosen on the nation’s currency? ‎ Desmond was born on July 6, 1914, in Halifax, Nova Scotia. Later she developed an interest in cosmetology(美容学) due to the shortage of black hair care products available in her area. The fact that her father worked as a barber must have inspired her as well. Halifax’s beauty schools were off limits to black women, so Desmond traveled to Mont real to attend the Field Beauty Culture School, one of the rare institutions that accepted black students. She also traveled to the U. S. to get the expertise she sought. She even trained with Madam C. J. Walker, who became a millionaire for pioneering beauty treatments and products for African Americans. ‎ After Desmond received the training she needed, she not only opened a salon of her own but also erected a beauty school because she wanted to provide opportunities for other black women. Following in the footsteps of Madam C. J. Walker, Desmond also launched a beauty line called Vi's Beauty Products. ‎ However, Desmond took the stand that would make her a hero in the black community after her car broke down on Nov. 8, 1946, during a trip she took to sell beauty products in New Glasgow, Nova Scotia. Informed that fixing her car would take a day, Desmond decided to see a film at New Glasgow’s Rose land Theater. But when she entered the theater, she was told that she had a balcony ticket, not a ticket for the main floor. So, Desmond, who was nearsighted and needed to sit downstairs to see, went back to the ticket booth to correct the situation. There, the cashier said she wasn’t allowed to sell downstairs tickets to blacks. The black businesswoman refused to sit in the balcony and returned to the main floor. There, she was roughly forced out of her seat, arrested and held overnight in prison. Because it cost 1 cent more for a main floor ticket than for a balcony ticket, Desmond was charged with tax evasion(逃税). She paid a $20 fine and $6 in court feds to be released from custody(拘留).‎ When she arrived home, Desmond hired a lawyer, Frederick Bissett, to represent her in court. But the lawsuit he filed against the Rose land Theater proved unsuccessful because Bissett argued his client was wrong fully accused of tax evasion instead of pointing out that she was discriminated ‎ against based on race. Unlike the U. S., Jim Crow wasn't the law of the land in Canada. So, Bissett may have won had he pointed out that this private movie theater attempted to force blacks to be segregated(隔离).‎ Although Desmond finally lost, her efforts inspired black Nova Scotians to demand equal treatment and put a spot light on racial injustice in Canada.‎ Desmond didn't see justice in her lifetime. She wasn’t considered innocent until April 14, 2010, when the governor of Nova Scotia issued an official pardon. Two years later Desmond was featured on a Canadian postage stamp and in the children's book “Viola Desmond Won't Be Budged.” Also, Faith Nolan recorded a song about her. A documentary about Desmond’s life, “Journey to Justice,” debuted in. 2000. Fifteen years later, the government recognized Nova Scotia Heritage Day in Desmond’s honor. In 2016, the businesswoman was featured in a Historic a Canada “Heritage Minutes,” a quick dramatized look at key events in Canadian history. ‎ ‎65. What can be learned about Desmond from the first two paragraphs? ‎ A. She attempted to abolish slavery in Canada.‎ B. She took part in the struggle against racism. ‎ C. Her selection was challenged by Just in Trudeau. ‎ D. Her image would appear on American dollar bank notes. ‎ ‎66. Desmond chose to study in the Field Beauty Culture School because ________.‎ A. she wanted to fulfill her father’s dream ‎ B. it offered her favorite cosmetology courses ‎ C. it held no prejudiced toward colored people ‎ D. she hoped to study with Madam C. J. Walker ‎ ‎67. What does the underlined word “erected” in Paragraph 4 most probably mean? ‎ A. Sped up. B. Set up. C. Looked into. D. Checked into. ‎ ‎68. What happened to Desmond when she was at the theater? ‎ A. She received unfair and violent treatment. ‎ B. She was informed that her car was stolen. ‎ C. She wrongly bought a downstairs ticket. ‎ D. She lost her ticket and was fined $20. ‎ ‎69. According to Paragraph 6, we can infer that Jim Crow might be a law ________.‎ A. regulating entertainment B. advocating women's rights ‎ C. fighting against tax evasion D. supporting racial segregation ‎ ‎70. What is the last paragraph mainly about? ‎ A. Delayed justice in Desmond's lifetime. ‎ B. Desmond's success as a businesswoman. ‎ C. Desmond's influence on Canadian history. ‎ D.

But this rarely happens. Between my older daughter's swim team practiced that begin before dawn and my younger daughter’s ‎ gymnastics practiced that run well past my ideal bed time, I’m often torn between late nights and early mornings. If I happen to get one day on the weekend that neither of them has practice, my alarm clocks are turned off and I will sleep in as long as I want. But research shows that by catching up on sleep on the weekend, I may actually be causing a form of “social jet lag” that makes it easier for me to suffer from some chronic(慢性的) diseases. ‎ Till Roenneberg, a scientist at the Institute of Medical Psychology at Ludwig Maximilian University in Munich, Germany, coined the term social jet lag to describe the effect great changes in sleep patterns can have on the body. Roenneberg noticed many adults tend to sleep in on the weekend to make up for poor sleep during the week or to accommodate late nights of socializing over the weekend. These adults think they're being healthy by catching up on sleep when they can, but Roenneberg found that changes in sleep patterns actually disturb body systems that rely on a circadian(生理的) rhythm, like cell repair and digestion. ‎ A study conducted by Duke University Medical Center analyzed the sleep patterns of almost 2,000 participants between the ages of 54 and 93 to determine if social jet lag would affect their health. Researchers found that those who slept irregular hours on the weekend were more likely to suffer from higher blood sugar levels and blood pressure and a heart attack. ‎ In an earlier study published in Current Biology, researchers found that social jet lag was directly associated with rising body mass index, a key marker in diagnosing obesity(肥胖症). Additional studies have found similar links between changes in sleep patterns and chronic health conditions. A study published in JAMA Neurology found that older adults who reported changes in sleep patterns also had rising accumulation of the beta-amyloid proteins(蛋白质), which are known as signs of Alzheimer's disease ‎ So what can you do to reduce your health risks? In a perfect world sleep would get more respect. School administrators, employers and individuals would manage activities based on sleep patterns rather than trying to squeeze sleep into the cracks of our lives. But because most of us don't want to change jobs keep kids out of school or miss meeting with our friends, the best we can do is to keep our sleep schedules as consistent as possible — during the week and on the weekend — so that our bodies a rhythm.‎ Social Jet Lag Introduction ‎● Due to the older daughter's swim team practices and the younger daughter's gymnastics practices, the author’s internal body clock is (71) ________.‎ The concept of ‎● Social jet lag refers to the phenomenon that great changes in sleep patterns (72) ________ the body.‎ ‎(73) ________ of social jet lag ‎● Social jet lag can make people suffer (74) ________.‎ ‎● According to a study conducted by Duke University Medical Center, social jet lag could (75) ________ blood sugar levels and blood pressure and cause a heart attack.‎ ‎● According to a study published in Current Biology, social jet lag could result in unhealthy weight (76) ________‎ ‎● According, to a study published in JAMA Neurology, social jet lag may (77) ________to Alzheimer's disease in older adults.‎ Suggestions on (78) ________ social jet lag ‎● Try to achieve a balance between your activity management and regular sleep pattern (79) ________.‎ ‎● Try not to (80) ________ your sleep schedules for social life on the weekend.‎ 第五部分：书面表达 请阅读下面文字，并按照要求用英语写一篇150词左右的文章。‎ The Chinese government has launched an all-out battle against the novel corona virus(新型冠状病毒).
