Many country performers used to attend (参加) the convention to give their performances. Fans would go to Nashville hoping to see their favorite performers. In the end, so many fans began showing up in Nashville that a festival named Fan Fair was born.‎ The first Fan Fair was held in April 1972, in Nashville for four days. Some of country music’s biggest stars attended. There were about fifty thousand fans. The first Fan Fair was so successful that planning began almost immediately for 1973. The date was changed to June, when the weather would be better. Over one hundred thousand fans attended the second Fan Fair.‎ Every year brought so many performers and fans to Fan Fair that, in 1982, it was moved to the Tennessee State Fairgrounds. Fan Fair stayed at the fairgrounds for another nineteen years.‎ There was always the unexpected during the festival. In 1974, former Beatle Paul McCartney attended. In 1992, more than six hundred reporters from Europe, Asia, and South America went to cover the appearance of a popular star, Billy Ray Cyrus, who had introduced a new country line dance. In 1996, Garth Brooks, who made a surprise appearance, signed autographs (签名) for 23 hours.‎ In 2001, Fan Fair returned to downtown Nashville as the world’s biggest country music festival. Now, over one hundred and twentyfive thousand country music fans go to Nashville every June. As you can imagine, those who want to attend Fan Fair must plan ahead. For example, they need to buy a ticket several months ahead of time. Of course, there’s much more to prepare.‎ ‎8. According to the text, Fan Fair____________.‎ A. has a history of more than 50 years B. lasts almost half a month every year C. is the most important music festival in America D. is a time when country music lovers get together ‎9. The second Fan Fair____________.‎ A. was held in the spring of 1972‎ B. was more popular than the first one C. was moved from Nashville to the fairgrounds D. was attended by former Beatle Paul McCartney ‎10. The purpose of the fourth paragraph is to____________.‎ A. show why Fan Fair has been popular B. introduce three famous musicians C. explain how Fan Fair started D. ask people to attend Fan Fair ‎11. What will the author probably talk about next?‎ A. Advice for fans. B. Music in America.‎ C. Education in Nashville. D. The future of country music.‎ D Inside Out is one of my favorite Disney movies. The story is about a young girl named Riley ‎ who moves from Minnesota to San Francisco with her family and how she deals with her emotions (情感) through the move. These five emotions in Riley’s brain are Joy, Fear, Anger, Disgust (厌恶) and Sadness. These emotions play a very important role in her life. I can relate because I am an 11yearold girl and I am very in touch with my emotions and preteen feelings.‎ The film is extremely beautiful and you couldn’t ask for better direction from Pete Doctor. The use of the right colors for the characters is great. For example, Joy is yellow, Sadness is blue, Disgust is green, Fear is purple and Anger of course is red. Sadness plays a main role in the story and it makes me wonder why we are told not to be sad. I think it’s important to be sad when the time comes. The end of the movie pretty much got me and the whole audience (观众) (families, couples and even elderly people) in tears and I cried very hard.‎ I recommend (推荐) this movie for anyone from 8 to 18 because it has enough joy in it for younger kids to like it even though it does have some sad moments. I believe that adults will like it too. And I give it 4 out of 5 stars because it connects to an older audience even though it is designed for a younger audience. I think younger children can see this, but a parent would have to explain some things to them after the movie.‎ ‎12. The author feels connected with the movie because she and the character Riley____________.‎ A. enjoy the same movie B. have the same feelings C. have the same move experience D. have a similar family background ‎13. What does the author think of Pete Doctor’s job?‎ A. Wonderful.      B. Just soso.‎ C. Bad.  D. Disappointing.‎ ‎14. After seeing the movie, the author has a new understanding of____________.‎ A. fear B. sadness C. anger D. joy ‎15. In the author’s eyes, the movie_____________.‎ A. won’t attract people over 18 B. is really unsuitable for children C. will be popular among kids and adults D. can easily be understood by younger kids 第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)‎ 根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。选项中有两项为多余选项。‎ Today our life and work rarely feel light or pleasant. Instead, the whole experience of being alive begins to melt into one enormous obligation(责任). 16 ‎ We say this to one another with great pride. 17 We are unavailable to our friends and family, unable to find time for the sunset, to finish off our obligations without time for a single mindful breath. This seems to have become the model of a successful life.‎ Because we do not rest, we lose our way. We lose the relaxation that gives us help. 18 Poisoned by the belief that good things come only through tireless effort, we never truly rest. This is not the world we dreamed of when we were young. But how did we get so terribly rushed in a world filled with work and responsibility, yet it lacks joy and delight? ‎ ‎ 19 Sunday is the time to enjoy and celebrate what is beautiful and good, time to sing songs, give thanks, and walk. It is time to be refreshed as we stop our work, our chores and our important projects. ‎ Sunday is more than the absence of work. Many of us, in our desperate drive to be successful and care for our many responsibilities, feel terrible guilty when we take time to rest. 20 Many of us still recall when, not long ago, shops and offices were closed on Sundays. Those quiet Sunday afternoons are deep in our cultural memory.‎ A. We also miss the quiet that gives us wisdom.‎ B. All work and no play make Jack a dull boy.‎ C. It becomes the standard greeting everywhere, “I am so busy.”‎ D. We work through day and night, feeling rather exhausted.‎ E. But the Sunday has proven its wisdom over the ages.‎ F. The reason is simple: we have forgotten the Sunday.‎ G. The busier we are, the more important we seem to ourselves and, we imagine, to others.‎ 第三部分 英语知识运用(共两节,满分45分)‎ 第一节 完形填空(共20小题;域小题1.5分,满分30分)‎ 阅读下面短文,从短文后各题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中,选出可以填入空白 处的最佳选项,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。‎ It was already half past seven and I was running late again for the dinner appointment with my wife, Eleanor.
