Founded in 1961 by historian Margaret Burroughs, DuSable now houses more than 15,000 significant pieces, including art, print pieces and historical mementos(纪念品). In March 2016, the Smithsonian Museums granted DuSable affiliate status, which means that the Chicago institution now has access to Smithsonian’s exhibits. It is the second Chicago cultural institution that has been granted; the Adler Planetarium is the other.‎ Some of the permanent exhibits at the DuSable‎ ‎Museum include: ‎ A Slow Walk to Greatness: The Harold Washington Story (about Chicago’s first black city manager).‎ Paintings/Drawings/Sculptures: Masterpieces from the DuSable‎ ‎Museum Collection.‎ The DuSable‎ ‎Museum also hosts special exhibits throughout the year, topics of which might cover the Civil Rights Movement, the Black Panther Party, or the slave liberation organization. The museum was named after Jean Baptiste Pointe du Sable, a self-described “free man,” who is widely recognized as the first permanent resident(居民) of Chicago and is formally considered the ‎ founder of Chicago by the State of Illinois.‎ Address: ‎‎740 E. 56th Pl.‎‎, Chicago, ‎IL Phone: 773-947-0600‎ Parking: Limited parking is available in the DuSable parking lot.‎ Hours: Tuesday through Saturday: ‎10 a.m. to 5 p.m.; Sunday: Noon to 5 p.m.‎ Admission: Adults: $10; seniors and children: $7; children under 6: free ‎21.

(On December 14, 2012, 20-year-old Adam Lanza shot 20 children, as well as six adult staff members.) My niece lives in Sandy Hook, and we had many phone conversations on how we could help the townspeople begin to heal. As a former elementary school teacher I wanted to help change the focus from tragedy and despair to hope.‎ I decided to do that by making bracelets. After many website visits and craft item purchases, I finalized my design for my Kindness Bracelet. Each bracelet is completely hand-made and each one is unique. As soon as I had several bracelets completed I sent them to Sandy Hook to my niece to give them out to folks in the community.‎ I order most of my supplies on the Internet in different shops from several countries and I have met a lot of wonderful like-minded business people in this process. It is great fun choosing interesting buttons and creating beautiful and colorful glass bead(珠子) patterns on my bracelets.‎ I have long said that if I ever won the lottery(彩票) I would share it with others. Kindness Bracelet is my lottery. Part of all sales returns to my community through donations. I have provided bracelets for public sale to area schools and churches. I have donated money to families with ill family members and urged them to do something fun. I feel lucky to have this project that ‎ gives me a chance to share with others.‎ Spreading kindness is a joy. Kindness Bracelet is in 38 states and 14 countries throughout the world. Most recently my neighbor took bracelets to Ireland to give her family members. Many people will take a bracelet as a gift when they go on vacation. I have sent many bracelets to people traveling to foreign countries. It is thrilling when people send me pictures on the Internet proudly displaying their bracelets.‎ ‎24.

The minister said teachers thought no one in government was listening to them and that was contributing to the low level of satisfaction.‎ Mr Bullrich gave out his mobile phone number for “questions, comments and complaints”, in the hope of dealing with teachers’ practical worries such as errors with pay and allowances(津贴) or problems with school buildings.‎ ‎“People didn’t really know if it was true that I would answer,” said Mr Bullrich when he announced the plan. “This guy rang at 02:00 and really criticized me on the phone --- ‘You owe me money.’ So I called him back at 02:15 and said, ‘Hello, this is the minister of education.’ First there was silence on the line and then we got the information and we solved the problem.”‎ The number of teachers’ strikes fell sharply in Buenos Aires.‎ Now Mr Bullrich is the national education minister and he has continued offering his mobile phone number --- and he says that he receives hundreds of phone calls each day.‎ In England, teachers’ unions have made repeated warnings about attacks on school staff. One of them recently published a survey claiming four out of 10 teachers had experienced violence in the past year. This included being hit, kicked or having objects thrown at them.‎ There have been international efforts to formally give schools and teachers a protected status during wars and conflicts. It followed concerns that places of education were being attacked, whether accidentally or deliberately, and they did not have the same protection that hospitals or medical staff in war zones received.‎ ‎28. What can we learn about Argentina’s education system?‎ A. It has taken on a new look.‎ B. It is experiencing a downturn.‎ C. It has performed well these years.‎ D. It receives little government support.‎ ‎29. Why did Mr Bullrich give out his mobile phone number?‎ A. To establish his personal image.‎ B. So solve teachers’ real problems.‎ C. To offer psychological help to teachers.‎ D. To attract people’s attention to education.‎ ‎30. According to the text, what Mr Bullrich did ______.‎ A. turned out to be effective B. met with strong criticism C. was not understood by teachers D. was inspired by hospitals’ practices ‎31. Which words can best describe Mr Bullrich?‎ A. Responsible and patient.‎ B. Serious and hardworking.‎ C. Considerate and generous.[]‎ D. Optimistic and understanding.‎ D You would think that we could read faces like they were open books. In fact, the skill has more in common with dancing or writing confessional poetry: People tend to overstate their ability to do it.‎ Most of us can’t distinguish between certain expressions without contextual clues. In one study, participants were unable to tell whether a man’s face in a photo was showing pain or pleasure about a quarter of the time. In another, when people watched silent videos of the same person experiencing pain and faking(假装) pain, they couldn’t tell which was which. A computer was correct 85 percent of the time. Computers were also better at telling that a person was smiling out of mild frustration rather than real delight.‎ And yet, bad as we are at reading expressions, we jump to all kinds of conclusions based on people’s faces. We might laugh at the ancient Greek belief in physiognomy - assessing character on the basis of facial features - but we unconsciously practice it daily. Recent research shows that while there’s practically no evidence that faces reveal character, we nevertheless behave as if certain features signal certain characteristics. People with “female” facial features seem more trustworthy; those with lower eyebrows appear more dominant. In another study, people were ready to decide whether an unfamiliar face should be trusted after they looked at it for just 200 milliseconds. Even when given a chance to look longer, they rarely changed their mind. ‎ Such judgments can defy logic. Subjects playing a trust game invested more money with a ‎ player who had a trustworthy face than with one who didn’t --- even when the two players had the same reputation. Another study reported that jurors(陪审团) needed less evidence to declare a person with an untrustworthy face guilty. And a researcher focusing on the International conflict found that a peace offering was more likely to be accepted by the respondents if it was attributed to a politician with “babyfacedness”(big eyes, full lips).‎ This brings us to a paradox. A person’s face may not reflect his or her nature, and yet research finds that specific facial features do seem to influence futures. US army War College graduates with dominant-looking faces are more likely than their peers to become generals; people whose faces appear competent are more likely to become CEOs of successful companies. This makes a certain sense. If someone assumes a man with a strong chin(下巴) is a confident person, he’s more likely to become one. Perhaps by treating others as though their faces reveal their characters, we prompt(促使) them to become the people we assume them to be.‎ ‎32. According to the passage, people think reading faces is ______.‎ A. unintentional B. mysterious C. effortless D. trainable ‎33. Which of the following might be the reason why the participants can’t tell whether the man in the ‎ photo is happy or sad according to the passage?‎ A. They have little knowledge about how to read expressions.‎ B. They don’t know what happened to him when the photo was taken.‎ C. They were not concentrating themselves on it when looking at the photo.‎ D. The photo is not very clear as expected.‎ ‎34. The underlined word “paradox” in the last paragraph is closest in meaning to “______”.‎ A. contradiction B. convenience C. conclusion D. concentration ‎35. What can we learn from the passage?‎ A. A man with a strong chin is worthy of being trusted.‎ B. Judging others by reading faces doesn’t make any sense.‎ C. Reading faces somehow reflects what we hope others to be.‎ D. Suspects with low eyebrows are more likely to be declared guilty.‎ 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，选项中有两项为多余选项。‎ A laugh track, sometimes called canned laughter, is a collection of prerecorded audience laughter and applause sounds added to television programs during post-production. The main purpose of the track is to trigger(激发) a response from home viewers who may not understand all of the intended humor when watching a taped sitcom(situation comedy). __36__ Therefore, canned laughter causes natural reactions to comedies.‎ ‎__37__ The producers of the Hank McCune Show added canned laughter after the show’s taping. Until that time, other radio and television comedies used a live studio audience or no canned laughter at all. In 1953, a sound engineer named Charley Douglass invented the Laff Box, a small electronic device(装置) containing numerous sounds of recorded laughter and applause. It is said that Charley Douglass selected almost all of his laugh track material from in-studio recordings several different comedy shows. __38__‎ During the 1970s, many sitcoms chose to get rid of the practice altogether or mix live audience reactions with the canned laughter. Filming a show in front of a live audience become a symbol of honor. __39__ Live audiences did not always provide a usable response, especially after a long day of retakes.‎ Today, the same company created by Charley Douglass offers an improved digital version of the original Laff Box. __40__ Most sitcoms produced today are still recorded in front of a live audience, but a more subtle laugh track can be used to improve weak responses.‎ A. However, there was a problem.‎ B. The belief is that laughter creates laughter.‎ C. The first known use of a recorded laugh track is said to be in 1950.‎ D. The effective use of canned laughter is considered more of an art than a science.‎ E. Douglass recorded different styles of laughter and applause without the sound of dialogue.‎ F. If this is true, audience reactions in modern sitcoms may have actually been recorded several years ago.‎ G. In addition to the original laughter and applause, there are tracks for foreign audiences and children’s shows.‎ 第三部分 英语知识运用（共两节，满分45分）[学&科&]‎ 第一节 完形填空（共20小题；每小题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。‎ In the wild, it often comes down to predator and prey(捕食者与猎物), the hunter and the hunted.

This is often good enough to fool a predator that is scanning an area to look for __48__. This helps prey to __49__ from its predator. But did you know that it often works the other way around, too? Predators can use camouflage to __50__ their prey.

Mimicry is when an animal has markings or other __53__ characteristics that allow it to look like some other kind of animal or plant.

For example, birds that were accustomed to nesting in tall __58__ have survived industrialization of their habitat by learning to nest in the narrow openings of tall buildings.
