It is considered as one of the best festival places in the world. Exit is unique in the festival world as it started as a student movement fighting for peace in Serbia. Even today, Exit has a strong social role to help the youth in Serbia.‎ Tomorrowland It is a large electronic music festival held in Belgium. It used to be organized as a joint venture by the original founders, the brothers Beers. The festival takes place in the town of Boom, Belgium and has been organized since 2005. It has become one of the most famous global music festivals.‎ Glastonbury Festival It is the largest greenfield music and a model for all the festivals that have come after it. Glastonbury involves a number of travels, and probably you should wait in a line. But you are entering a huge tented city. Everyone here is to have a wild time in their own way.‎ Sziget Festival It is one of the biggest multicultural events of Europe. It started in 1993. The festival attracts ‎ almost 400, 000 fans from over 70 countries to a beautiful island in the heart of Budapest.

So when we tell you that Sabrina Gonzalez Pasterski is far from your average human, we mean it.‎ When she was only 14 years old, the Chicago native constructed her own single engine airplane — by herself. If that wasn’t impressive enough she then flew it across Lake Michigan, becoming the youngest person to ever fly their own plane. The whole adventure took two years to complete, and she recorded the entire experience on YouTube.‎ ‎ She then graduated from Illinois Mathematics and Science Academy in 2010 and entered the famous Massachusetts Institute of Technology. After just three years at MIT she has already achieved the highest possible grade point average of 5.0. She is now working towards her doctorate at the world-famous Harvard University. Once again she is only 23 years old.‎ ‎ What’s even more remarkable is that she is no longer interested in building planes but has turned her attention to physics, namely black holes and how gravity affects space and time. She particularly wants to study “quantum (量子) gravity,” where she will attempt to understand the link between gravity within the context (背景) of quantum physics. If her research proves successful, discoveries in this area could vastly change the way we understand the universe.‎ During an interview earlier this year she said: “Be optimistic about what you believe you can do. When you’re little, you say a lot of things about what you’ll do or be when you’re older — I ‎ think it’s important not to lose sight of those dreams.”‎ ‎24. Why does the author mention “Albert Einstein” in the first paragraph?‎ A. To show Sabrina has high intelligence.‎ B. To tell us Sabrina is as famous as Einstein.‎ C. To introduce the contributions made by Einstein.‎ D. To declare Einstein is different from average people.‎ ‎25. What made Sabrina impressive when she was l4 years old?‎ A. Building an airplane with her parents.‎ B. Becoming the youngest student in Harvard. ‎ C. Sharing her adventure experience on YouTube.‎ D. Flying the plane made by herself across Lake Michigan.‎ ‎26. What contribution will Sabrina probably make in physics?‎ A. Explaining how gravity affects our life.‎ B. Changing our understanding of the universe.‎ C. Putting forward the theory of black holes. ‎ D. Finding the link between gravity and quantum physics.‎ ‎27. What can we infer from the last paragraph?‎ A. Sabrina never dreams of her future.‎ B. Sabrina lost sight of her dream at one time.‎ C. Sabrina always encourages others to dream.‎ D. Sabrina is optimistic and holds on to her dream. ‎ C There are plenty of different parks to visit in the UK. All theme parks in Britain have cafés, restaurants, picnic areas and gift shops, so you’ll still have plenty to see and do when you and the kids have been on enough rides. There are usually smaller “funfair” rides and games as well, so younger children won’t get bored. Several theme parks also have other attractions next to them, e.g. water parks often open all year round, unlike the theme parks.‎ Wherever you are in Britain, there’s likely to be a theme park within one or two hours’ drive, bus ride or train journey. Several theme parks have accommodations so you can stay for a day or two if you want to make a trip into a short holiday.‎ Prices for UK theme parks vary considerably; some have an entrance price which allows you to go on all the rides, while in others you have to pay for every ride individually. It can also make a difference whether you go during peak time or not. For example, tickets always cost more during school holidays and weekends than they do during the weekdays.‎ Theme parks always get very busy during the summer months, so if you don’t like crowds, it’s usually a good idea to go earlier or later in the year!‎ If you’re thinking of visiting a UK theme park, it’s worth having a look for special offers on tickets. Products such as chocolate bars and cereals sometimes have “buy one get one free” offers on theme park tickets, so keep a look out in shops and supermarkets.‎ ‎28. You can’t _________ in the theme park according to the passage.‎ ‎ A. have a skiing B. have lunch C. enjoy special offers D. stay for the night ‎29. If you go to the theme park during the weekdays, you’ll probably _________.‎ ‎ A. save some money B. have a good time ‎ C. have to spend more D. get something free ‎ ‎30. According to the passage, what should you do if you are tired of crowds in the theme park?‎ A. Choose one with few visitors. B. Avoid the busiest months.‎ C. Go earlier or later in the daytime. D. Go there when no one is in it.‎ ‎31. The best title for the text would be _________.‎ A. What to Do in the Theme Park B. Visiting the Theme Park ‎ C. Theme Parks in the UK D. Introduction to Famous Theme Parks ‎ D When someone has deeply hurt you, it can be extremely difficult to let go of your grudge. But forgiveness is possible — and it can be surprisingly helpful to your physical and mental health. Indeed, research has shown that people who forgive have more energy, better appetite and better sleep patterns. “People who forgive show less anger and more hopefulness,” says Dr. Frederic Luskin, who wrote the book Forgive for Good. “So it can help save on the wear and tear (消耗) on our body and allow people to feel more energetic.”‎ So when someone has hurt you, calm down first. Take plenty of breaths deeply and think of something that gives you pleasure: a beautiful scene in nature, someone you love. Don’t wait for an apology. “Many times the person who hurt you may never think of apologizing,” says Dr.‎ ‎ Luskin. “They may have wanted to hurt you or they just don’t see things the same way. So if you wait for people to apologize, you could be waiting a very long time.” Keep in mind that forgiveness does not necessarily mean accepting the action of the person who upset you. Mentally going over your hurt gives power to the person who brought you pain. Instead, learn to look for the love, beauty and kindness around you. Finally, try to see things from the other person’s perspective. You may realize that he or she was acting out of ignorance, fear, even love. To achieve the perspective, you may want to write a letter to yourself from that person’s point of view.‎ ‎32. What is the main idea of the first paragraph?‎ A. Forgiveness keeps you from being hurt.‎ B. Forgiving others does good to your health.‎ C. Forgiveness helps stay mentally healthy.‎ D. Forgiving yourself is the biggest challenge.‎ ‎33. The underlined word “grudge” in the first paragraph most probably means ________.‎ A. understanding B. forgiveness C. anger D. pity ‎34. According to the writer, what is the best way to calm down after being hurt?‎ A. Try to figure out why you get hurt.‎ B. Write a letter to the person who hurts you.‎ C. Persuade yourself to accept what others have done to you. ‎ D. Think about pleasant things and forget about the hurt.‎ ‎35. Dr. Luskin advises us not to wait for an apology after being hurt because ________.‎ A. we are not patient enough ‎ B. people seldom want to apologize ‎ C. we’d feel worse accepting others’ apology D. people don’t mean it when they apologize ‎ 第二节：（共5小题，每小题2分，满分10分）‎ 根据短文内容，从短文后的七个选项中选出能够填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两个选项为多余选项。‎ Having experienced life at camp, you must know the benefits of the summer camp. 36 , you may not realize how good the experience is for children.
