For more than 40 years she made it morally necessary to know everything---to read every book worth reading ,to see every movie worth seeing .When she was still in her early 30s, publishing essays in such important magazines as Partisan Review, she appeared as the symbol of American culture life ,trying hard to follow every new development in literature, film and art .With great effort and serious judgement. Sontag walked at the latest edges of world culture.Seriousness was one of Sont age’s lifelong watchwords(格言), but at a time when the barriers between the well-educated and the poor-educated were obvious, she argued for a true openness to the pleasure of pop culture. In “Notes Camp”, the 1964 essay that first made her name ,she explained what was then a little-known set of difficult understandings, through which she could not have been more famous .“Notes on Camp”,she wrote, represents “a victory of ‘form’ over ‘content’, ‘beauty’ over ‘morals’”.By conviction(信念)she was a sensualist(感觉论者), but by nature she was a moralist (伦理学者),and in the works she published in the 1970s and 1980s , it was the latter side of her that came forward. In illness as Metaphor —published in 1978, after she suffered cancer—she argued against the idea that cancer was somehow a special problem of repressed personalities(被压抑的性格), a concept that effectively blamed the victim for the disease. In fact , re-examining old positions was her life long habit.In America, her story of a 19th century Polish actress who set up a perfect society in California, won the National Book Award in 2000. But it was as a tireless all-purposer cultural view that she made her lasting fame. “Sometimes,” she once said ,“I feel that, in the end, all I am really defending …is the idea of seriousness, of true seriousness.” And in the end ,she made us take it seriously too.<61.The underlined sentence in paragraph 1 means Sontag_________.A.was a symbol of American cultural lifeB.developed world literature, film and artC.published many essays about world cultureD.kept pace with the newst development of world culture62.She first won her name through ___________.A.her story of a Polish actressB.her book illness as MetaphorC.publishing essays in magazines like partisan ReviewD.her explanation of a set of difficult understandings\63.As for Susan Sontag’s lifelong habit , she __________.A.misunderstood the idea of seriousnessB.re-examined old positionsC.argued for an openess to pop cultureD.preferred morals to beauty64.Susan Sontag’s lasting fame was made upon___________.A.tireless, all-purpose cultural viewB.her lifelong watchword :seriousnessC.publishing books on moralsD.enjoying books worth reading and movies worth seeing}65.According to the passage, Susan Sontag__________.A.was a sensualist as well as a moralistB.looked down upon the pop cultureC.thought content was more important than formD.blamed the victim of cancer for being repressedCWith the World Cup always held in the European off-season in June and July, when the tiny nation of Qatarm beat out USA Australia, Japan and South Korea, as the venue(地点)the 2022 World Cup Soccer, there were gasps of surprise from the fans – it was not just because of the size of the competitors, but also the fact that Doha sees an average top temperature of 41 degrees Celsius (106°F) in June and July with the possibility of top temperatures as high as 50°C (122°F). While shifting the World Cup to the cooler month.Since the World Cup can not be moved to the ‘cooler’ season in January or to a neighboring country with milder weather, Qatar has to figure out a solution to make the game more comfortable. A team of engineering scientists from Qatar University (QU) have taken a more high-tech approach to solving the problem –they've reportedly developed a type of artificial "cloud" designed to float above the World Cup venues and provide fans and players with relief from the blazing sun.The artificial clouds system was invented by a team led by Dr Saul Abdul Ghani, Head of the Mechanical and Industrial Engineering Department at QU, who told Gulf News that the "clouds" would be made from a lightweight carbon structure carrying a giant envelope of material containing helium(氦)gas. The "cloud" would also feature solar panels on its upper surface to power engines that allow the cloud to be moved via remote control. While the country officials have promised to improve some of the issues with solar-powered stadiums capable of reducing the temperatures inside, to a comfortable 20℃(68°F),there is still concern of how the players will be able to function in the practice fields.The system would initially cost around US$500,000, with prices coming down with commercial scale production. However, since Qatar needs to find a solution, the money is probably to the issue. The bigger question is, will this team of scientists actually be able toconjure up(兑现)something that they have promised We will all find out in about eleven years!·66.By mentioning “the Eur opean off-season”, the author tells us.A.why the World Cup is held B.where the host countries of the World Cup areC.where the World Cup is usually held D.when the World Cup is held67.The artificial clouds system aims to .A.carry a giant envelope of material containing helium gasB.air-condition the venues via solar powerC.feature solar panels on its upper surfaceD.allow the loud to be moved via remote control68.Which of the following is NOT promised for 2022 World Cup by QatarA.The tournament season.{B.The tournament venues.C.The comfortable temperature for training grounds.D.The comfortable temperature for the matches.69.About how much US dollars are estimated if four artificial clouds float above stadiums A.$ 1,600,000 B.$ 2,500,000 C.$500,000 D.$ 2,200,000 70.Which of the following can best serve as the title of this passageA.Will the 2020 World Cup Be Held in the Middle EastB.Qatar’s 2022 World Cup in High TemperatureC.Will Man-Made Clouds Provide Shade at the 2022 World Cup in QaltarD.Artificial Clouds at High Cost Promising Comfortable Season《Part IV Writing (45 marks)Section A (10 marks)Directions: Read the following passage. Fill in the numbered blanks by using the information from the passage.Write NO MORE THAN THREE WORDS for each answer.There are many reasons why you might not tell all when your doctor asks you to list the medications you are taking. But there is one very good reason why you should tell all: your health. Or you may encounter a drug interaction, a situation in which a substance affects the activity of a drug.Even though drug reactions and interaction are responsible for only about percent of emergency department visits, many of these cases are serious.Medications have become an important component of good medical care, often taking the place of surgery or other invasive procedures. Pills are thought to be good cures for lowering blood pressure and cholesterol(胆固醇)and they are also used to treat depression and other kinds of diseases. As a result, people prefer to take combined medications, thinking they all work for good.At least 25 percent of Americans over age 65 take three or more medications daily-in many cases, prescribed by different doctors. Any of these medications can cause an unfavorable reaction. When two or more are taken at the same time, there is a risk of a drug interaction.Further increasing the risk, 40 percent of American adults regularly have herbal remedies(药物)or vitamins – often in combination with prescription or over-the-counter medications and usually without the knowledge of their doctors.To avoid the bad effects, you should follow the instructions. Your doctor will tell you when and how the medications are to be taken and if they are to be taken with or without certain foods. These instructions are important to ensure that the drug does its job effectively.It's a good idea to go to the same doctor regularly so he can be familiar with the drugs you are taking. And be sure to consult him before starting to take herbal remedies or vitamins. Finally, new medications are coming onto the market all the time. All the possible reactions and interactions are not always known. Be alert to symptoms and report them immediately to your doctor.…Title: 71.I.

Answer the questions according to the information given in the passage.Bicycle rental companies in Beijing are going broke, because nobody wants to hire their services. Major rental operators have invested about 100 million yuan($ million)in almost 20,000 bicycles but are now struggling to survive.A spokesman from the Bird of Freedom Bicycle Rental said the company has already sold most of the 400 bicycles. “This is a difficult business, especially when it is cold. The cold weather almost killed the business,” he said.Bigger rental companies are also facing challenges. Beijing Bicycle Rental Co Ltd, which owns 8,000 bicycles, has invested more than 30 million yuan over the past year. Wang Yong, chairmanof the group, said his company had not made a profit since it began in 2005.Almost all bicycle rental companies in Beijing require deposits of 300 to 400 yuan and then customers need to pay 10 yuan or more per hour. “I don’t want to pay 400 yuan to rent a bike. It’s too dear,” said Zhang Yu, a student in Communication University of China, who does not own a bike and often takes motorized rickshaws. “If renting for one day will cost 20 yuan and I rent a bike for five days, I can use the money to buy a new one."Although facing economic ruin, some enterprises are still hoping that conditions will improve.IbikeMedia, one of the biggest bicycle rental companies in China, also invested tens of millions yuan in Beijing and has more than 10,000 bicycles. Li Weiwei, general manager of IbikeMedia Beijing, said his company has a poliey of no deposit and no payment. He said the company tried to put advertisements on the bicycles and in this way, they could make profits. But they had not made a profit yet because of its small scale. However, customers must pay 20 yuan per card and also show proff of good personal credit.In early July, the Beijing municipal government announced plans to develop a 50,000-bicycle rental operation across the city. “The bigger network we have, the more citizens will rent bikes,”Li said. “This will make rental easier to citizens and we strongly need help from the government.”81.In which season is the bicycle rental business the most difficult in Beijing (no more than 2 words):82.List the reasons why Zhang Yu is not willing to rent a bike. (no more than 7 words) 83.How can IbikeMedia possibly make a profit according to Li Weiwei (no more than 6 words) 84.What is the main idea of the passage (no more than 10 words)Section C(25 marks)Directions: Write an English composition according to the instructions given below in Chinese.学校学生会正在招募学生干部,你作为一名优秀的高中生,想竞选学生会主席,请你准备一篇不少于120词左右的竞选演讲词,内容包括:1.你认为自己具备了什么条件(能力、性格、爱好等)可以胜任学生会主席的工作;2.如果当选,你将为本校同学做些什么。
