Their deaths were felt over the world and country music star Keith Lionel Urban honored these musicians in a very special way. During a New Year’s Eve concert,Keith talked about all the greats that passed away and how some of them were music and life coaches or examples to him. That was when Keith decided to put together a mixture of songs from all of these artists.At the concert, pictures of some of the most eminent people in the music industryappeared across the screen. As their pictures appeared, Keith sang the songs that the artists were best-known for. Each performance was truly moving, and the audience loved it. Instead of thinking it was a sad moment, everyone was able to think about how much joy these artists brought to the music industry.Keith sang a few lines from songs by Chris Cornell, Gregg Allman, Chuck Berryt Don Williams, Glen Campbell and Troy Gentry. The audience cheered aloud whenever he changed from one song to another. It was amazing how smoothly he played through the different styles of music. It was a perfect interpretation of his gift.When he got to the final song, he invited his wife to join him on stage to dance and close out the night. Then his two daughters joined their parents. It was really an unforgettable performance.Music truly has the ability to touch a special place in our hearts and even if we do not know these artists personally, their songs have meant a lot to many of us. I am sure those artists would have been so proud to hear him sing their music. It is a way to honor those late artists and celebrate the joy they brought to our lives!24.

Tea lovers say its taste changes with each following steeping (续泡).But the crop this year has been small at Nannuoshan, one of the six major Pu'er mountains in Yunnan Province. The hottest weather and lowest rainfall totals in years have reduced production. “Drought has cut production by about half this spring,” said Zi Sai, the son of Que Liu and Si En.Local officials blame climate change for an increase in drought-like conditions in recent years. The dry weather has worsened over the past 20 years, with this year’s drought breaking some records. “The entire rainfall pattern has changed due to global warming,” said Xiao Chan, head of weather services at China*s National Climate Center in Beijing.Pu'er trees grow in the cloud-covered forests of Yunnan.The trees require no fertilizers or pesticides (农药),unlike the tea trees grown on large farms elsewhere. The adult plant normally reaches a height of four meters.Spring produces the highest-quality leaves from the trees. The summer harvest, with a higher percentage of water, is considered to be lower in quality. Summer leaves are sold for mass consumption.The drought conditions hurt the economy of the 32 villages of Nannuoshan. “My family depends wholly on Pu'er tea for survival, earning about 200,000 yuan a year,” said Zi Sai!s uncle,Si Da, who is 44. “That represents just over $28,000. This year,our income has been cut by tens of t housands of yuan. ”While one ancient tree,said to date from 800 years ago, survived the drought, other younger trees did not. “If these kinds of trees survive, they may need threeto five years for a full recovery.” Si Da added. “These trees are quite pit iful. They should have been protected like children.”28. How is the climate in the Pu’er tea planting areas in recent years?A. It is too wet.B. It is much colder.C. It is changing regularly,D. It is becoming much drier.29. What’s the adv antage of Pu'er trees compared with the tea trees planted on other big farms?A.They are short and small.B. They are pollution-free.C.They grow on large farms.D. They are picked at all seasons.30. What does Si Da think of the younger tea trees?A. They were easy to live on.B. They should have been taken good care of.C. They took only a short time to fully recover.D. They had better be cut down to earn money.31. What is the main idea of the text?A. The extreme weather ruins tea farms.B. Famous tea in China might disappear.C. Few tea trees survive natural disasters.D. Drought hurts Pu’er tea crops in China.DWhen you eat a traditional ice cream in summer, you need to finish it quickly to make sure the treat 'doesn’t end up melting down your hand. Reach for an ice cream sandwich instead, and you’ll, find the ice cream stays solid longer magically. An ice cream that refuses to melt seems unnatural, but you might be surprised by what's really behind its practically heatproof (耐热的)abilities.Ice cream without a proper container in the fridge would lead to ice blocks because of its water content. Most ice cream contains some elements called emulsifiers(乳化剂)that can keep water to fat to prevent ice blocks. They go a step further by helping to keep ice cream consistent, even under the hot sun. On an element list,you might find different chemicals with the same goal: to holdwater in so the ice cream doesn’t melt quickly. Ice cream sandwi ches generally contain more of those chemicals including emulsifiers than hand-made ones.If you’re worried about some additives (添加剂)in ice cream sandwiches f which might belong in a lab rather than your kitchen, then you’d better be at ease. Even completely natural elements, which come from beans, might make you stop eating if you’ve heard about their misuse in weight-loss efforts.Of course,the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) takes any of the side effects of those chemicals into account, and the amount you’d find in an ice cream sandwich isn’t enough to cause health pr oblems. While you meet someone willing to share his ice cream sandwiches with your kid, there’s no reason to fear your kid’s health safety. A slow melt rale method causes you less worry.32. Why would ice cream without a proper container in the fridge become ice blocks?A. It is too big and thick.B. It has freezing medium in it.C. It contains some water in it.D. It doesn’t have enough cream.33. Which one is the function of emulsifiers in ice cream sandwiches?A. To keep the ice cream stay consistent.B. To cover the ice cream to avoid sunlight.C. To let the ice cream sandwiches taste better.D. To protect the ice cream by keeping water out.34. What does the author intend to express in paragraph 3?A. Natural elements from beans are bad for health.B. Additives should be avoided during losing weight.C. The additives in icc cream sandwiches arc harmless.D. Emulsifiers in ice cream can make people become fat,35. What's the author’s attitude towards kids’ eating ice cream sandwiches?A. Approving.B. Worried.C. Opposed.D. Doubtful.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。
