满分40分)(A)Once a small boy lived on a farm which seemed so far away from everywhere.He needed to get up before sunrise every morning to help his father on the farm. During sunrise he would take a break and climb up on the fence along the side of the farm. He could see a house with golden windows. “If they could afford golden windows, then there must be other nice things inside the house.” He imagined how great it would be to live there. Then he promised himself, “Some day I will go t here and see this wonderful place.”One morning, his father would go to the town and told him to stay at home for a rest. Knowing that this was his chance, he took a sandwich and headed across the field towards the house with the golden windows.As the afternoon went on, he began to realize how wrong he was. The house was much farther than he had expected. As he went near the house, he saw no golden windows but instead a place in bad need of a painting. A small girl very close to his age came out of the poor house and stood by the broken fence. He asked her if she had seen the house with the golden windows. The girl said, “Sure, I know.” And invited him to sit on the porch(门廊). As he sat there, he looked back from where he just came. There he saw the sunset turned the windows of his house to gold! Now he understood that everyone had his own house with golden windows.31.

However, there is a growing list of wonders of the world today. About nine years ago, UNESCO’s World Cultural and Nature Heritage List had 411 places and 136 countries were responsible to protect them, and the list keeps on growing.Usually it is the task of a group of 21 experts to decide which places go on the list. The experts are chosen to work for six years. Their work is to examine and discuss the suggestions from different countries. They also manage the World Heritage Fund which can offer help to countries for protection work.Over the past centuries a lot of cultural or historic places have been destroyed by man or nature. Protecting our natural and cultural heritage is a long and difficult task. Earthquakes, floods, pollution, wars, or even tourism are some of the dangers that harm the heritage.When a historic place is in great danger, it is put on the World Heritage in Danger List and necessary things will be done to protect it.. Places which are on the danger list include Historic Bridges of Indiana, St. Elizabeth’s Hospital, Rosenwald School in Southern U.S., etc.36.

Her musical styles put opera, pop and jazz together. She is popular in the States but not here (Britain) –the image of her and her second husband, Andrew Lloyd Webber (he: much older, she; his muse) seems for ever frozen.The 47-year- old singer talks about the new album Symphony that came out of a “very dark time”, including her decision to give up trying to have children. “People have suggested I could adopt,” Brightman says. “But work is central to my life now. and so I am going to put it to one side. After a while, not having children becomes the norm and perhaps that might sound alarming to parents especially, but I have neverknown anything different. I’m not hurt by not having children. My life and career are incredibly rich.”Talking about growing up in a large family in Berkhanisted, she says, “I was gifted as a child, and very musical. I seemed to be good at anything to do with the arts. At 5 I understood the music I was dancing to and had an eye for costume.” She first appeared in a West End musical at 11 and hated boarding school.Brightamn led the saucy dance troupe(辣妹三人组)Hot Gossip and had her first hit with I Lost My Heart to a Starship Trooper in 1978. At 18 she married a music manager called Andrew Graham Stewart. “I was probable in love but I can’t remember. Girls change such a lot between 18 and 22. It didn’t really work out.” In 1981 she was spotted by Lloyd Webber. She became his leading lady in Song and Dance, Requiem and Phantom of the Opera. They married in 1984.Brightamn says she felt hostility(敌意)“form the beginning. I haven’t tried to understand it. I’ve done very well everywhere else, especially the US, where I now live. I just accept it for what it is. The more you are away from Britain, the more you appreciate it. But I don’t miss it, although I miss my family. Our profession can be uncomfortable but I enjoy what I do. I get on with it.”41. The first paragraph tell us that ________.A. Brightamn is very popular around the world except in AmericaB.
