Early British exploration of the classical worldWhat do you think of when you think of face painted white? A shirt with stripes? White gloves and a black hat? In the West this figure might come to mind when we think of mime.Mime it the art of acting without using speech. The word can also refer to a person who performs this art. This type of art has grown and changed over the centuries. What began as a simple form of communication is now a form of theater.Mime is one of the earliest forms of self-expression. As languages were developing, humans still used their bodies to speak. Mime first became an art form in ancient Greece. Silent actors performed everyday scenes using gestures. These plays often taught a lesson about values. When the Romans got control of Greece, they took the art of mime to Italy. There they made it their own. Even after thefall of the Roman Empire, mime remained.In the mid-1500s mime became a form of street performance in Italy. Mimers wore masks and acted out comedies. Because masks hid their faces, they could make fun of any aspect of society. Everyone enjoyed the performanceyoung and old, rich and poor.Mime also traveled around Europe. Because the art had no words, there was no languagebarrier. Mime became especially popular in France. French performers created famous mime characters like Pierrort and Bip. These characters helped shape todays mime.Want to try mime? To communicate only through body language; no talking allowed. Watch peoples facial expressions and gestures closely and practice copying them. Create a story to act outthis will be more interesting to your audience. No props? No worries! You can create anything you need out of thin air.The most important thing is to believe your illusion. If you believe its real, your audiencewill, too!28.

The best title for the passage may be .A. The art of mimeB. The value of mimeC. The origin fo mimeD. The reform of mimeNow heres something Helen Keller coul dnt have dreamed up: the picture book GoodnightMoon, but with all the picturesthe cats, the socks and clock, the mouse and little housecome to life insculptural 3-D.Researchers at the University of Colorado, Boulder already have imagined it. And they, along with others in the Tactile(触觉的) Picture Books Project, have made it as well as 3-D printedversions of Harold and the Purple Crayon and The very HungryCaterpillar.Tactile books for little readers have long existed, of course, with pieces of felt and textured(手摸时有感觉的) patches (斑点) perfect for small fingertips to touch. And other organizations, like the American Printing House for the Blind and the National Braille Press, are also exploringthe tactile-booksspace.But theTactile Picture Books Project takes touch books to a new level, kindness of 3-Dprinting. The promising technology opens up the possibility of fast, customizable(定做的), sculptured versions of a 2-D books. One final goal: to allow parents to tear a photo out of a 2-Dbook page, send it to printer andoh! get a 3-D version of the same. Another: to develop a library of graphics(图形) that can be printed on the fly.Theres a long way to go, in terms of possibility, says Abigale Stangl, one of the researchers. But she says its well worth it. The more a visually impaired child (视障孩子)explores her worldwith touch, the more capable she becomes, Stanglsays.“Our focus is really looking at children who are in the stages of growing literacyand how can parents help create an experience to help children understand that books contain knowledgeand develop a comfort books and feeling the envirnment,”saysStangl.But how to tell if a child is really engaging with tactile books? Stangl says the team is exploring different ways of testing engagement(参与度). Sensors might detect how long a child istouching the page and whether that links to attention, or capturing the interaction between the child and parent.Sounds like true universal design: Little is more sacred (神圣的) across cultures than a goodbedtimestory.32. According to Paragraph 1, Helen Keller never thought .A. books would be printed with picturesB. technology might bring animals in booksto lifeC. the blind could read picture booksone dayD. picture books could be popular with blindreaders33. The aim of the Tactile Picture Book Project is to .A. buld a library for 3-D books.B. get a book printed in a shorttimeC. develop touch books for readersD. turn 2-D books into 3-Dversion quickly34. The underlined phrase “ on the fly” may mean .A. in a hurryB. at lengthC. with effortD.in the air35. According to Stangl, researchers tried to .A. make children at ease with feeling the worldB. have an experience of exploring theworld C. understand the source of bookknowledge D. have a feeling to protectthe environment第二节（共 5 小题；每小题 2 分，共10 分）Every story starts with a general idea. Whether its “y oung woman survivesrobot disaster ” or “remains of humanity on a spaceship bound for new world”.36 A nd its always the first thing you come up with when youre planningyour next project, even if you dont recognize you have it. A lot of times, theideas grows so quickly into a blossoming novel-length tale that you might not realizeits there, hiding in the background. But it is.And as many experienced writers know all too well, that idea lurking (潜藏) inthe shadowscan be foundation for more than one story. 37 Now, that doesnt soundso bad in theory, sure. There are so many great ideas you can pick from!But heres the thing: a vast number of those potential storiesar ent sogreat. When youstart plotting your novel, drawing it out in various directions from the premise(上述各项), the first story you decide to tell might not be the right one for you.38 It might havebeen the right one for you years ago. It might be the right one in the future. Or it may never be the right one simply because its a terrible story.Whatever the basic reason, the fact is that a large number of possible directions you cantake an idea to develop it into a full story just arent the right directions for you. 39In general, the more experience you gain as a writer, the easier it becomes to tell whichstory ideas are working and which ones arent- thus helping you prevent writinga whole story you eventually realize is totally wrong for your purposes.40 So when you realize youve gone the wrong way, its not the end of the world. Its simply a sign that you have more to learn as a writer.A. All writers make mistakes.B. An idea is the seed from which a storygrows. C. They dont match your skillsand your goals. D. It happens to everywriter.E. And that is a valueable skill to build.F. It might be the right one for some other writers.G. It has the potential to be the foundation of a thousand stories.第三部分英语知识应用第一节完形填空（共20 小题；每小题 1.5 分，满分30 分）In a book, author Issac Asimov tells an incident when he was interviewed by television reporter Barbara Walters.She asked him how many 41 he had written and then asked, “ Do nt youever want to doanything but write?”He said, “ No.”She 42 on. “Dont you want to do hunting?
