With a post-industrial setting as a background and offering music of electronic and hip hop, Buku succeeds as a true festival experience.

He then left school and joined a firm of art dealers in the large city of The Hague. He eventually realized that dealing with others artwork was not his profession. His true love was to become an artist himself.‎ He devoted much of his time to learning the fundamentals of drawing. Van Gogh believed that to become a great painter, one must first master the ability to draw. It was only after he was comfortable in this area that he began to use oil paints. That is when he developed a style and talent for color that made him one of the most respected artists of all time.‎ Van Gogh's paintings are amazing representations of his view of the world. The colors jump off the canvas, not only because of their brightness but also because of the brush strokes(笔画). Van Gogh avoided light, feathery strokes, which would describe typical subjects. Instead, he used his brush and oils to make layers that built the painting until it was almost three-dimensional.‎ Perhaps one of the most memorable examples of van Gogh's use of color and brush style is his painting The Starry Night. The sky swirls (打旋) across the canvas, while the stars shine with unearthly brightness. Each brushstroke creates the image of movement. Under the sky rests a village painted with smaller strokes and finer detail, giving the impression of peace. A large tree in the foreground suggests that the view is enjoyed from the top of a hill, which offers a glance of the beauty of the night sky. The Starry Night shows van Goghs great ability to create a powerful image with simple subjects.‎ Van Gogh spent only the last ten years of his life painting. He is believed to have sold only one of the 900 paints he created during those years. Yet Van Gogh today is considered one of the greatest artists of all time. His influence is evident: many painters mimic his style and use of color. His artwork can be found in museums all over the world and is valued in the millions of dollars, an evidence for Vincent Van Gogh’s talent. ‎ ‎24. How did Van Gogh learn how to paint according to the text?‎ A. By acquiring basic techniques. B. By closely observing the world around him.‎ C. By reading many books about art. D. By carefully studying the works of great artists.‎ ‎25. Which of the following does the author seem to admire most about van Gogh's paintings?‎ A. The images. B. The mood. C. The brushwork. D. The themes. ‎ ‎26. Why does the author refer to The Starry Night?‎ A. To praise Van Gogh's ability. B. To show Van Gogh's style of painting. ‎ C. To show Van Gogh's respect for nature. D. To indicate Van Gogh's feelings about his art. ‎ ‎27. What does the underlined word "mimic"in the last paragraph probably mean?‎ A. Copy. B. Praise. C. Acknowledge. D. Improve.‎ C Teenagers have long been told that being active and taking part in sports is good for their health. But new research suggests that too much sport for teenagers could negatively affect their well-being just as much as too little sport.‎ The US Department of Health and Human Services suggests that young people aged between 6 and 17 carry out at least 60 minutes of physical activity a day, 7 hours a week. But researchers from Switzerland say their study suggests that 14 hours of physical activity a week is best for promoting good health in teenagers. However, they found that more than 14 hours appears to be detrimental to their health. To reach their findings, the researchers surveyed more than 1,245 teenagers aged between 16 and 20 from Switzerland.‎ All participants were required to answer questions regarding height and weight, sports practice, sports injuries and well-being. Their well-being was assessed using the World Health Organization (WHO)well-being Index(指数), which provides scores between 0 and 25. Of the participants, 50. 4% were male with a mean age of 17.95 years, Almost 9% of these males were overweight. The overall average well-being score for all participants was 17.‎ The researchers divided sports participation into low(0-3.5 hours a week), average (3.6-10.5 hours), high(10.6-17.5 hours), and very high(more than 17.5 hours). The researchers found that participants in the low and very high activity groups were more than twice as likely to have well-being scores below 13, compared with participants in the average group. The researchers found that the highest well-being scores were gotten by participants who carried out around 14 hours of physical activity a week, but beyond 14 hours resulted in lower well-being scores.‎ Commenting on their findings, the researchers say physical activity has been associated with positive emotional well-being, reduced sadness, anxiety and stress disorders, and improved self- respect in teenagers.‎ The researchers note that their study stresses the importance for physicians caring for teenagers to check their level of sports practice and ask them about their well-being. Teenagers probably need a supportive and closer follow-up of their health and well-being. The findings can inform guideline groups who put forward suggestions on sports practice for teenagers.‎ ‎28. How long should teens do sports a week according to researchers from Switzerland?‎ A. 60 minutes. B. 7 hours. C. 14 hours. D. 17. 5 hours.‎ ‎29. What does the underlined word "detrimental"in paragraph 2 mean?‎ A. Unfair. B. Essential. C. Beneficial. D. Harmful.‎ ‎30. What did the researchers find out?‎ A. Too much sport is unhealthy for teenagers.‎ B. Low sports participation causes overweight.‎ C. Very high activity groups tend to get higher well-being scores.‎ D. Both low and high sports participation help teenagers improve self-respect.‎ ‎31. What may physicians caring for teenagers’ health find from the study?‎ A. The way to promote teenagers physical health.‎ B. The importance of checking teenagers level of sports practice.‎ C. The method of improving teenagers' emotional well-being.‎ D.The necessity of producing recommendations on sports practice for teenagers.‎ D Failure is probably the most exhausting experience a person ever has. There is nothing more tiring than not succeeding.‎ We experience this tiredness in two ways: as start-up fatigue(疲惫) and performance fatigue. In the former case, we keep putting off a task because it has either too boring or too difficult. And the longer we delay it, the more tired we feel. Such start-up fatigue is very real, even if not actually physical, not something in our muscles and bones. The solution is obvious though perhaps not easy to apply: always handle the most difficult job first.‎ Years ago, I was asked to write 102 essays on the great ideas of some famous authors. Applying my own rule, I determined to write them in alphabetical order, never letting myself leave out a tough idea. And I always started the day’s work with the difficult task of essay-writing. Experience proved that the rule works.‎ Performance fatigue is more difficult to handle. Though willing to get started, we cannot seem to do the job right. Its difficulties appear so great that, however hard we work, we fail again and again. In such a situation, I work as hard as I can – then let the unconscious take over.‎ When planning Encyclopedia Britannica, I had to create a table of contents based on the topics of its articles. Nothing like this had ever been done before, and day after day I kept coming up with solutions, but none of them worked. My fatigue became almost unbearable. One day, mentally exhausted, I wrote down all the reasons why this problem could not be solved. I tried to convince myself that the trouble was with the problem itself, not with me. Relieved, I sat back in an easy chair and fell asleep. An hour later, I woke up suddenly with the solution clearly in mind. In the weeks that followed, the solution which had come up in my unconscious mind proved correct at every step. Though I worked as hard as before, I felt no fatigue. Success was now as exciting as failure had been depressing.‎ Human beings, I believe, must try to succeed. Success, then, means never feeling tired.‎ ‎32. What are people with start-up fatigue most likely to do?‎ A. To accept failure. B. To work hard. C. To seek help. D. To delay tasks.‎ ‎33. What does the author recommend doing to prevent start-up fatigue?‎ A. Doing things in strict order. B. Building up physical strength. ‎ C. Leaving out the toughest ideas. D. Dealing with the hardest task first.‎ ‎34. On what occasion does a person probably suffer from performance fatigue?‎ A. Before starting a difficult task. B. When all the solutions fail.‎ C. If the job is rather boring. D. After finding a way out.‎ ‎35. What could be the best title for the passage?‎ A. Success Is Built upon Failure. B. How to Handle Performance Fatigue.‎ C. Getting over Fatigue: A Way to Success. D. Fatigue: An Early Sign of Health Problems.‎ 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。‎ Language is part of our daily lives, no matter where we live in the world. It is the same with music, whether you listen to it on the radio on your drive to work or sit before an orchestra. Both language and music play a huge role in our culture. 36 ‎ Both language and music have a writing system.‎ In English we record language using the alphabet, which is a collection of letters. In the same way, we use notes to keep a record of music. Just as you are reading this collection of letters on the screen and find meaning in it, musicians read notes and create meaning in the form of music. 37 By writing pieces of text or music, we are able to share experiences through time. I can read the ideas or hear the composition of someone who lived hundreds of years ago, which is really quite exciting. ‎ ‎ 38 ‎ You can make a good guess at where someone is from by listening to the language they use. In the same way, styles of music are different around the world, giving us the opportunity to explore many different cultures through their music and providing us with music for every situation. 39 Even if you don’t like Britpop melodies, you may love the energy of Latin American salsa music.‎ Both share emotion.‎ How do you know that I am angry? 40 , but you will know for sure through my words. Similarly, music can sound angry, sad or happy. Music can show you exactly how the composer was or is feeling, and allows us to share in that emotion. When you feel happy, you might want to sing and dance to a happy song to celebrate your happiness. In contrast, you have probably also listened to sad music when you were feeling down.‎ A. Both vary with culture.‎ B. Here are some of their similarities.‎ C. Usually I never say anything about it D.Of course you may be able to see it in my face E. So just as you read English, you can read music.‎ F. This also means that there is something for everyone!‎ G. This also means everyone can learn language and music well!‎ 第三部分：英语知识运用（共两节；满分45分）‎ 第一节：完型填空（共20小题；每小题1.5分，满分30分）‎ An elderly carpenter was ready to retire.

Coleman Elementary School are learning yoga exercises. The aim is to provide them with better tools to deal with the daily struggles they face (17). Principal Thompson brought the programme to Coleman in 2010. A few of her students are homeless but others live in homes with no electricity. Some have little or no food to eat, others are related to victims of gun violence. The Mindful Moment Room is a place where students do deep breathing exercises and clear their minds. They come to learn how they can better react to situations (18) and how to calm themselves. They can also speak with Mindful Moment specialists about what caused their teachers to send them there. Principal Thompson believes that yoga is responsible for the drop ‎ in leaving school at her school. Over the past year, there was no dropping out of school at Coleman compared to four during the 2013-2014 school year. And students are almost never sent to her offices for bad behavior any more (19). For the past half century, yoga has been studied as a possible treatment for anxiety and depression. As for students, there’s some scientific evidence that yoga can help people but more is needed.
