This could be in countless different 36 , from coming up with a new invention to 37 starting a family. No matter what it is, 38 the world in some way is the purpose of many lives.‎ That’s 39 makes the Renaissance – an art period which centered in Italy between the 14th and 17th centuries — the era of 40 .‎ When we hear the word “art”, it’s very likely that we’ll imagine a work from the Renaissance period. This was a time when many believe art made a revival( 复兴 )— “renaissance”, 41 , means to bring new life to something.‎ Take the works of Italian artist and inventor Leonardo da Vinci for example. His painting Mona Lisa became one of the best-known 42 on Earth. While many artists left their marks by bringing 43 to the world, Da Vinci did much more than that. The artist was fascinated with the study of human anatomy(解剖学)and even 44 time dissecting(解剖) human bodies to help with his studies. Da Vinci also proved his 45 in many other areas, and he created sketches of ideas for many inventions, from bridges and machinery to even a helicopter and a robot.‎ The Renaissance also played host to many other great names in the world of art. Italian painter Raphael, for example, was another leader of this era. But his most famous work isn’t 46 on a wall today. 47 , his masterpiece — the Raphael Rooms of Italy’s Palace of the Vatican — is the wall. The walls and ceilings of the palace are filled with beautifully 48 paintings of Bible scenes, which he started as a young artist in 1508.‎ Religious works such as Raphael’s were the 49 style of the Renaissance period. We only have to look at the most iconic (标志性的)sculpture of that period — and perhaps 50 — to realize that.‎ Italian artist Michelangelo’s sculpture David, 51 a Biblical character, was firstly shown in the 1500s. The sculpture has 52 years of exposure to the rain, having rocks thrown at it by protesters(抗议者), and even someone 53 it with a hammer in the 1990s. 54 all these, David is still standing strong and 55 today — a true symbol of the Renaissance.‎ ‎36.

However, if you’re willing to leave your country and explore life in other areas, there are many countries boasting an extremely cheap and low cost of living. Check out the following countries when planning your next move.‎ Ecuador Ecuador is similar to the United States in many ways, and as a result has become a popular American getaway. They even use the U.S. dollars for their currency(货币). In this country, it’s cheaper to eat out every day than cook for yourself on a budget in the U. S. You can even buy a building for around $50,000 and hire someone to look after it while you’re away.‎ Mexico Although the country is known for its poverty-ridden streets, there are many wealthier areas that provide every facility you might need. You can live off a mere $700 to $800 a month in Mexico, and this includes rent for a nice place, facilities, food, and any sightseeing.‎ Argentina Argentina has been a popular tourist destination for many years. It has great restaurants, a rich history, and many places to explore. Not to mention, it’s not very expensive to live here. A decent sized home can cost around $139,000, which is relatively cheap in relation to homes in the United States.‎ Vietnam Vietnam has also become a popular tourist destination in recent years. There are many million-dollar luxury homes by the beach, but you can find a modest flat or a small home for around $25,000 to $50,000 if you search in the right areas.‎ 56. How much does it cost to live in Mexico for a year?‎ A. About $12,000. B. About $7,000. C. About $8,000. D. About $8,800.‎ 57. What do Argentina and Vietnam have in common? A. They both have great restaurants.‎ B. The cost of living in them is both expensive.‎ C. Tourists enjoy travelling in the two countries.‎ D. The middle-sized homes both cost around $139,000.‎ 58. ‎.In which country is the U.S dollar used for its currency?‎ A. Ecuador. B. Mexico. C. Argentina. D. Vietnam.‎ B According to a new US study, couples who expect their children to look after them in old age should hope they have daughters because daughters are twice as attentive as sons overall.‎ The research by Angelina Grigoryeva, from Princeton University, found that, while women provide as much care for their elderly parents as they can manage, men do as little as they can get away with and often leave it to female family members.‎ Her analysis of the family networks of 26,000 old Americans concluded that gender(性别) is one of the most important things that decide whether or not people will actively care for their elderly parents.‎ In a paper presented at the annual conference of the American Sociological Association in San Francisco, she concludes that simply having a sister makes men likely provide less care. Using data from the University of Michigan Health and Retirement Study, a study which has been tracking a cross-section ‎ of over 50s for the last decade, she calculated that women provide an average of 12.3 hours a month of care for elderly parents while men offer only 5.6 hours.‎ ‎"Sons reduce their relative caregiving efforts when they have a sister, while daughters increase theirs when they have a brother."‎ ‎"This suggests that sons pass on parent caregiving responsibilities to their sisters."‎ In the UK, the 2011 Census(人口普查) showed that there are now around 6.5 million people with caring responsibilities, a figure which has risen by a tenth in a decade.‎ But many are doing so at the risk of their health. The census showed that those who provide 50 hours or more of care a week while trying to hold down a full time job are three times more likely to be struggling with ill health than their working counterparts(同事)who are not carers.‎ 59. According to the passage, what’s the most important factor to predict if people will actively care for the elderly?‎ A. Education. B. Gender. C. Career. D. Income.‎ 60. The US study finds that_____.‎ A. having a sister makes men less likely to look after their parents B. sons are twice as likely as daughters to care for parents in old age C. sons are unwilling to leave caregiving responsibilities to their sisters D. sons and daughters seem to give equal care to their parents 61. What does the author stress in the last paragraph?‎ A. People should give up their job to care for the elderly.‎ B. Many care providers work longer hours than others.‎ C. Many care providers have potential health problems.‎ D. People shouldn’t pass on caring responsibilities to others.‎ ‎62.The author develops the text by _______.‎ ‎ A. explaining social networks of careers B. describing people' s experiences ‎ C. analyzing various researches and data D. comparing different gender C There’s a new frontier in 3D printing that’s beginning to come into focus: food. Recent development has made possible machines that print, cook, and serve foods on a mass scale. And the industry isn’t stopping there.‎ Food production With a 3D printer, a cook can print complicated chocolate sculptures and beautiful pieces for decoration on a wedding cake. Not everybody can do that — it takes years of experience, but a printer makes it easy. A restaurant in Spain uses a Foodini to “re-create forms and pieces” of food that are “exactly the same,” freeing cooks to complete other tasks. In another restaurant, all of the dishes and desserts it serves are 3D-printed,rather than farm to table.‎ Sustainability(可持续性)‎ The global population is expected to grow to 9.6 billion by 2050, and some analysts( 分析师 ) estimate that food production will need to be raised by 50 percent to maintain current levels. Sustainability is becoming a necessity. 3D food printing could probably contribute to the solution. Some experts believe printers could use hydrocolloids (水解胶体) from plentiful renewables like algae(藻类) and grass to replace the familiar ingredients(烹饪原料). 3D printing can reduce fuel use and emissions. Grocery stores of the future might stock "food" that lasts years on end, freeing up shelf space and reducing transportation and storage requirements.‎ Nutrition Future 3D food printers could make processed food healthier. Hod Lipson, a professor at Columbia University, said, “Food printing could allow consumers to print food with customized nutritional content, like vitamins. So instead of eating a piece of yesterday’s bread from the supermarket, you’d eat something baked just for you on demand.”‎ Challenges Despite recent advancements in 3D food printing, the industry has many challenges to overcome. Currently, most ingredients must be changed to a paste(糊状物) before a printer can use them, and the printing process is quite time-consuming, because ingredients interact with each other in very complex ways. On top of that, most of the 3D food printers now are restricted to dry ingredients, because meat and milk products may easily go bad. Some experts are skeptical about 3D food printers, believing they are better suited for fast food restaurants than homes and high-end restaurants.‎ 63. What benefit does 3D printing bring to food production?‎ A. It helps cooks to create new dishes. B. It saves time and effort in cooking.‎ ‎ C. It improves the cooking conditions. D. It contributes to restaurant decorations.‎ 64. What can we learn about 3D food printing from Paragraphs 3?‎ A. It solves food shortages easily. B. It quickens the transportation of food.‎ ‎ C. It needs no space for the storage of food. D. It uses renewable materials as sources of food.‎ 65. What is the main factor that prevents 3D food printing from spreading widely?‎ A. The printing process is complicated. B. 3D food printers are too expensive.‎ ‎ C. Food materials have to be dry. D. Some experts doubt 3D food printing.‎ 66. What could be the best title of the passage?‎ A. ‎3D Food Printing: Delicious New Technology B. A New Way to Improve 3D Food Printing C. The Challenges for 3D Food Production D. 3D Food Printing: From Farm to Table D China is showing the world its great resolve in the global climate campaign with concrete and self-motivated efforts as well as serious commitment.‎ At the opening ceremony of the Paris climate summit, Chinese President Xi Jinping restated China's plan made in June to cut its carbon emissions( 排放)per unit of GDP by 60-65 percent from 2005 levels by 2030, and increase non-fossil fuel sources in primary energy consumption to about 20 percent.‎ With a large population, China is facing increasing resource limits, severe environmental pollution and a worsening ecosystem, and its citizens are also becoming increasingly aware of environmental problems. Suffering environmental problems and seeing the efforts as important to transforming its economic growth pattern, the country has much at risk if climate change is left unattended.‎ Actually, climate change efforts are already included in China's medium-and long-term program of economic and social development, and ecological efforts are the clear characteristics in China's 13th Five-Year Plan(2016-2020).‎ Although it is and will be a developing country for a long time to come, China has been actively involved in the global campaign against climate change, now topping the world in terms of energy conservation and use of new and renewable energies.‎ However, China's development rights need to be respected. It is unfair to overstress China's status as one of the world's largest greenhouse gas emitters and regard it as the major part of responsibilities in the global fight against climate change.‎ It is worthy of notice that China's emissions of greenhouse gases per person are far lower than those of developed countries, especially the United States, although rapid economic expansion and its population base have made it one of the biggest producers of the gases.‎ To show its great resolve, Beijing in September also announced the establishment of an independent South-South cooperation fund of 20 billion RMB to help developing countries affected by global warming.‎ While China is eagerly accomplishing its policy commitments, developed countries should stop questioning China's commitment to fighting climate change and pointing fingers, and start shouldering their due responsibilities instead.‎ ‎67.China is self-motivated to fight against climate change in order to_____‎ ‎ A. top the world B. transform its economic pattern ‎ C. solve its population problem D. respond to pressure from developed countries 68. The underlined word "it" in paragraph 7 refers to _____‎ A. China B. the United States C. economic expansion D. the population base 69. It can be inferred from the text that_______‎ A. China will completely use non-fossil fuels by 2030‎ B. China will carry out its plan by stopping its development C. Chinese emit more greenhouse gases than Americans on average D. Some developed countries are not taking on their due responsibilities 70. Which of the following is a sign of China's self-motivated fight against climate change?‎ A. Expanding its economy B. Using non-renewable energies.‎ C. Making it part of China's 13th Five-Year Plan.‎ D. Donating money to developing countries 七选五阅读根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。‎ How to Solve Worry Problems The Great Nobel Prize winner in medicine, Dr. Alexis Carrel, once said, “Businessmen who do not know how to fight worry die young.” 71 Then how can we find a quick, surefire (万全的) recipe for handling worry situations? Here are a few basic steps to deal with different kinds of worries.‎ Get the facts Why is it so important to get the facts? Because unless we have the facts, we can’t possibly even attempt to solve our problems intelligently. Without the facts, we will be left in confusion. 72 Half the worry in the world is caused by people trying to make decisions before they have sufficient knowledge on which to base a decision. If a man will devote his time to securing facts in an objective way, his worries usually disappear in the light of knowledge. 73‎ However, getting all the facts in the world won’t do any good until we figure out what these facts mean and interpret them. It is much easier to achieve this after writing them down. In fact, merely writing the facts on a piece of paper and stating our problem clearly goes a long way toward helping us to reach a sensible decision. Therefore, when we are worried, sit down and write down two questions – and the answers to these questions, “What am I worrying about?” and “What can I do about it?” Arrive at a decision Worry is killing. So we will probably save our life by sitting down and writing out all the various steps we could take and then writing down the probable results of each step and calmly coming to a decision. Experience has proved the enormous value of arriving at a fixed decision. 74 .‎ Act on that decision ‎75 Don’t stop to reconsider. Don’t begin to hesitate and retrace (折返) our steps. Don’t lose ourselves in self-doubting which causes other doubts. Don’t look back our shoulders. A. Analyze the facts.‎ B. Write down our worries.‎ C. This is the chief cause of worry.‎ D. There comes a time when we must decide.‎ E. Once we have made a decision, go into action.‎ F. And so do housewives, horse doctors and bricklayers.‎ G. It is the failure to reach a definite decision that drives men mad.‎ V. 用所给首字母、提示词或中文意思的适当形式填空(5%)‎ 76. He decided to find a host family with the i______ of improving his English.‎ 77. I’m ______(true) sorry that things had to end like this.‎ 78. His trip to India made a strong i______ on him.‎ 79. They can apply to everyone in the world, r_______ of where you’re from.‎ 80.
