Their amazing discovery is transforming our understanding of the deep connections between the great ancient civilizations of Egypt and Greece. Their story is told for the first time in this exhibition.‎ Francis Towne’s watercolours of Rome ‎ 21 January － 14 August 2016‎ ‎ Room 90/ Open late Fridays ‎ Free, just drop in ‎ Come and experience 18th-century Rome through an astonishing series of watercolours not displayed together since 1805.‎ Sicily: culture and conquest ‎ 21 April － 14 September 2016‎ ‎ Room 35‎ ‎ Tickets: Adults￡10, Members/under 16s free ‎ This exhibition tells Sicily’s fascinating stories － from the arrival of the Greeks and other settlers, to the extraordinary period of enlightenment(启蒙) under Norman rule in the 11th to 13thcenturies.‎ Early British exploration of the classical world ‎ 14 March － 27 July 2016‎ ‎ Room 90a/ Open late Fridays ‎ Free, just drop in ‎ This small display features a remarkable selection of drawings by British explorers and architects, who discovered and documented some of Sicily’s best surviving classical sculpture and architecture.‎ ‎1. Which place does Francis Towne’s works picture?‎ A. Egypt.           B. France.          C. Rome.            D. Sicily.‎ ‎2. What art works are housed in Room 90a?‎ A. Drawings.     B. Buildings.    C. Sculptures.         D. Watercolours.‎ ‎3. Which exhibition can you attend in October?‎ A. Sicily: culture and conquest B. Sunken cities: Egypt’s lost worlds C. Francis Towne’s watercolours of Rome D. Early British exploration of the classical world B On Saturday 17 September 2016, you may catch sight of hundreds of apes(猩猩) running around the streets of London. They’ll have been filming a new Planet of the Apes movie, you’ll probably think. But in fact, when the starter’s pistol sounds for the Great Gorilla Run next year, this highly popular event will have been raising money for thirteen years. People from all over the world will run, jog or walk 8km in gorilla costumes through the capital’s streets, passing such iconic landmarks as The Tower of London and St Paul’s Cathedral. By the time the last ape crosses the finishing line, the runners will have raised millions for endangered species and education projects in Central Africa.‎ Unusual charity events such as these are a huge trend for raising money for worthwhile causes. If, however, you’re looking to really like the idea of running through mud and freezing cold ice, then The Tough Mudder is perhaps what you’ve been searching for. In this difficult and tiring team event, participants finish a 10 to 12-mile barrier course that tests physical strength and mental courage. It’s more about friendship than winning. Over 150 such events worldwide have raised £5 million.‎ But fundraising doesn’t have to involve physical effort. Students at a school in Illinois played Justin Bieber’s song ‘Baby’ over loudspeakers and urged fellow students to pay to stop the song. They needed to raise $1,000 in one week to achieve this. Beyond expectations, they exceeded(超过) the goal within three days. Even teachers chipped in.‎ If you want to join the ranks of gorillas next September, you only have to pay £60 to register. This includes the gorilla suit, which you can keep. If you take part, not only will you have been helping the gorillas and people who depend on their habitat, you’ll never have to buy another set of fancy clothes again!‎ ‎4. What is the Great Gorilla Run held for?‎ A. To film a new Planet of the Apes B. To collect money for Central Africa C. To make a study of the origin of man D. To enjoy famous senic spots in London ‎5. What can we learn about the Tough Mudder?‎ A. It is disgusting B. It is unique C. It is competitive D. It is challenging ‎6. What does the phrase “chipped in” in the third paragraph refer to?‎ A. Joined in singing B. Made a contribution C. Scolded the organizers D. Interrupted the activity ‎7. Which can be a suitable title for the passage?‎ A. Going Crazy for Charity! B. Protecting Our Rare Animals!‎ C. Competing in Unusual Events! D. Watching Out for Aggressive Animals!‎ C More than half of parents in the United States are helping, or have helped their adult children who have been hit by high unemployment and stagnant (无变化的) wages, according to a new survey. It showed that present economic conditions are discouraging young adults from leaving ‎ home and forcing those who have already gone, socalled boomerang children, to return.‎ ‎“Parents are continuing their financial involvement longer than we expected，” said Ted Beck, the president and CEO of National Endowment for Financial Education (NEFE)．‎ About 60 percent of parents questioned in the survey said they are helping their adult children who are no longer in school financially, providing housing and living expenses. ‎ For an increasing number of adult children, the situation is bad. Twothirds of adult children, aged 18 to 39, who are not in school said they faced tougher financial pressures than previous generations, according to the survey. And nearly onethird of parents agreed that it was easier for them to earn money than for their children.‎ Parents are helping their children out of genuine concern, and because they do not want to see them struggle. But Beck said that parents who make sacrifices to help their adult children should be cautious about their own finances. ‎ ‎“If you are taking on extra debt or delaying retirement to help your adult child, you could be making a mistake and putting your own financial future in danger，” Beck warned. ‎ Boomerang children can also cause other problems for their parents. Thirty percent of parents said they had given up privacy since their adult children moved back home, while more than a quarter have taken on added debt, and ten percent have delayed retirement. But the survey also showed that 42 percent of adult children living at home are helping with the cooking and cleaning.‎ ‎8．The underlined phrase“boomerang children” in the first paragraph likely means __.‎ A．adult children visiting parents often B．married adult children C．adult children depending on parents for financial support D．adult children independent and successful in life ‎9．What is Ted Beck's suggestion to the parents?‎ A．Asking their children to help with the housework.‎ B．Leaving their children to struggle to live.‎ C．Being careful when helping their children financially.‎ D．Putting off their time of retirement.‎ ‎10．According to the survey, we can know that ________.‎ A．about 50% of parents give money to their adult children to cover the daily cost B．twothirds of adult children are faced with financial problems in school C．onethird of adult children earn money more easily than their parents D．10 percent of parents has delayed retirement ‎11．What is the main idea of the whole text?‎ A．Adult children are less dependent.‎ B．Parents help support adult children.‎ C．Bad conditions affect children a lot.‎ D．Adult children like living with parents.‎ D Is beauty something always positive? Almost everyone thinks attractive people are happier and healthier, have better marriages and have more respectable jobs. Personal advisors give them better advice for finding jobs. Even judges are softer on attractive defendants. But in the executive（主管的） circle, beauty can become a disadvantage.‎ While attractiveness is a positive factor for a man on his way up the executive ladder, it is harmful to a woman. Handsome male executives were considered having more honesty than plainer men; effort and ability were thought to lead to their success. Attractive female executives were considered to have less honesty than unattractive ones; their success was connected not with ability but with factors such as luck.‎ ‎ All unattractive women executives were thought to have more honesty and to be more capable than the attractive female executives. Why are attractive women not thought to be able? An attractive woman has an advantage in traditionally female jobs, but an attractive woman in a traditionally manly position appears to lack the manly qualities required.‎ ‎ This is true even in politics, “When the only clue is how he or she looks, people treat men and women differently, ” says Anne Bowman, who recently published a study on the effects of attractiveness on political candidates（候选人）. She asked 125 college students to rank two groups of photographs, one of men and one of women, in order of attractiveness. The students were told the photographs were of candidates for political offices. They were asked to rank them again, in the order they would vote for them.‎ ‎ The results showed that attractive males completely defeated unattractive men, but the women who had ranked most attractive unchangeably received the fewest votes.‎ ‎12. In traditionally female jobs, attractiveness ________. ‎ A. makes women look more honest and capable ‎ B. strengthens the manly qualities required ‎ C. often enables women to succeed quickly ‎ D. is of no importance to women ‎13. Bowman’s experiment shows that when it comes to politics, attractiveness _____.‎ A. turns out to be a disadvantage to men ‎ B. has as little effect on men as on women C. affects men and women alike ‎ D. is more of a disadvantage than an advantage to women ‎ ‎14. According to the passage, people’s views on beauty are often _____.‎ A. practical B. one – sided C. old fashioned D. supportive ‎15. The passage is mainly about _____.‎ A. the advantages of being attractive B. the disadvantages of being attractive C. equal rights for women D. the importance of appearance ‎ 第二节 （共5小题；每小题3分，满分15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.选项中有两项为多余项.‎ We all wish we had just a bit more time．Just think what you could do with an extra hour or two each day: you could finally stick to an exercise routine, or spring-clean the house, or write your novel, or learn the guitar and so on． _____16____ But I can help you find more hours in your day for the things that really matter．[Z-x-x-k.Com] ‎ Get Out of Bed Earlier ‎ If you normally get up at 7:30 am, try getting up at 7:00 am．That half-hour might not sound like much, but it could be time that you use to exercise, to read that book you've been meaning to finish．______17_______‎ l Do the Important Tasks First Once you get to work, get the important ones done first （not the easy ones, or even the urgent ones）．You can afford to spend at least an hour working on big, important tasks rather than ‎ on all those little urgent ones．[Z-X-X-K]‎ ‎______18_____The urgent tasks will still get done, and you won't miss the important ones． ‎ l Reduce Interruptions ‎ ‎ If colleagues have a habit of hanging around your desk to chat, or if the phone is constantly ringing, you might find that it takes you half the day to finish a simple task like writing a letter．Constant interruptions don't just eat up time, they also break your concentration． When you've got a big task to focus on, let your calls go to voicemail．___19___Wearing headphones makes it less likely that people will try to strike up a conversation．‎ l ‎______20______‎ A few minutes chatting, browsing the web, and so on, can easily turn into hours of wasted time over the course of a day. When you’re working, work. If your concentration is slipping, take a proper break, go and get a glass of water, or stretch your legs a bit. And if you’re facing a difficult task, try breaking it into small steps or stages so that it’s easier to deal with.‎ A. Stay Focused On Your Work B. Take Breaks When Necessary C. If you have an office door, close it.‎ D. If you work like this, you’ll usually save time.‎ E. Would you want me to make your day longer?‎ F. I can't magically make all your days 25 hours long． G.
