The composing 36 of Albert Roussel got off with a (n) 37 start, but received one of its biggest successes from a lie.At the age of eight, Roussel lost his parents and he had to live with his grandfather. He built on the music learned from his mother by reading through the family music 38 and playing classics and popular songs on the39 .Three years later, Roussel was taken in by his mothers sister. She helped young Albert to continue to 40 the professional piano courses. The summer vacations at their beach house added a second love to Rouseels lifethe sea. He studied to be a navel (海军)man, 41 still spared much time to study music.In the French Navy, while he was 42 at a training base, he and two of his friends found the time to play the piano trios (三重奏)of Beethoven and other 43 . Roussel also began composing . At a church nearby on Christmas Day 1892, he had his first performance 44 as a composer with a beautiful piano trio. Everyone in church was pleased with the new piece.That 45 encouraged Roussel to write a wedding march. One of his fellow naval officers offered to show 46 to an influential conductor, Edourad Colonne. When Roussels friend 47 with the composition , he reported to Roussel and other people that Colonne advised Roussel to give up his naval career and devote his life to music.Then at the age of 25, Roussel did just that 48 he had spent seven years in the navy.

If someone else comes in,we may have to move.And here ,according to Gray, liftusers unthinkingly go through a set pattern of movements . He told the BBC what he had observed. He explained that when you are the only one inside a lift, you can do whatever you want its your own little box. If there are two of you, you go into different corners, standing diagonally (对角线地) across from each other to create distance. When a third person enters, you will unconsciously form a triangle. And when there is a fourth person it becomes a square, with someone in every corner. A fifth person is probably going to have to stand in the middle. New entrants to the lift will need to size up the situation when the doors slide open and then act decisively. Once in, for most people the rule is simple look down, or look at your phone. Why are we so awkward in lifts? “You dont have enough space,” Professor Babette Renneberg, a clinical psychologist at the Free University of Berlin, told the BBC. “Usually when we meet other people we have about an arms length of distance between us. And thats not possible in most elevators.”In such a small, enclosed space it becomes very important to act in a way that cannot be construed (理解) as threatening or odd. “The easiest way to do this is to avoid eye contact,” she said.56. The main purpose of the article is to _. A. remind us to enjoy ourselves in the elevator B. tell us some unwritten rules of elevator etiquette C. share an interesting but awkward elevator ride D. analyze what makes people feel awkward in an elevator57. According to Gray, when people enter an elevator, they usually _. A. turn around and greet one another B. look around or examine their phone C. make eye contact with those in the elevator D. try to keep a distance from other people58. Which of the following describes how people usually stand when there are at least two people in an elevator?59. The underlined phrase “size up” in Paragraph 7 is closest in meaning to _.A. judge B. ignore C. put up with D. make the best of60. According to the article, people feel awkward in lifts because of _. A. someones odd behaviors B. the lack of spaceC. their unfamiliarity with one another D. their eye contact with one anotherB“I will never marry,” the future Elizabeth I declared at the age of eight, and, to the terror of her people, the Great Queen kept her word.For four centuries, historians have guessed why Elizabeth never married. In her own day, her decision to remain single was considered absurd and dangerous. A queen needed a husband to make political decisions for her and to organize and lead her military campaigns. More important, she needed male heirs to avoid a civil war after her death.There was no shortage of suitors for the Queen, both English courtiers (朝臣) and foreign princes, and it was confidently expected for the best part of 30 years that Elizabeth would eventually marry one of them. Indeed , although she insisted that she preferred the single state, she kept these suitors in a state of permanent expectation. This was a deliberate policy on the Queens part, since by keeping foreign princes in hope, sometimes for a decade, she kept them friendly when they might otherwise have made war on her kingdom.There were, indeed, good political reasons for her avoiding marriage. The disastrous union of her sister Mary I to Philip II of Spain had had an unwelcome foreign influence upon English politics. The English were generally prejudiced against the Queen taking a foreign husband, particularly a Catholic one. Yet if she married an English, jealousy might lead to the separation of the court.There were other, deeper reasons for Elizabeths unwillingness to marry, chief of which, I believe, was her fear of losing her autonomy as Queen. In the 16th century, a queen was regarded as holding supreme dominion(统治权)over the state, while a husband was thought to hold supreme dominion over his wife. Elizabeth knew that marriage and motherhood would bring some harm to her power.She once pointed out that marriage seemed too uncertain a state for her. She had seen several unions in her immediate family break down, including that of her own parents.Some writers, based on very fragile evidence, have argued that Elizabeth was frightened or incapable of the sex act, but it is more likely that she feared childbirth. Two of her stepmothers, her grandmother and several acquaintances had died in child bed.Elizabeths father, Henry VIII, had had her mother, Anne Boleyn, killed; her stepmother Catherine Howard later suffered the same fate. When Elizabeth was 14 she was all but attracted by Admiral Thomas Seymour, who also went to the prison within a year. Witnessing these terrible events at an early age, it has been argued, may have put Elizabeth off marriage.Elizabeth had to decide her priorities. Marriage or being single? Elizabeth was far too intelligent.The choice she made was courageous and revolutionary, and, in the long run, the right one for England.61To the suitors including English courtiers and foreign princes,Elizabeth _.Aheld back the truth Bgave a definite answer “no”Ckept them expecting deliberately Dsaid she preferred the single state62If Elizabeth had married a foreign prince, there might have been _.Aprejudice against her Bseparation of the courtCjealousy among English courtiers Da negative impact on English politics63Which of the following implications is right according to the passage?AQueen Elizabeth was not a Catholic.BSome foreign princes made war on Britain.CCatherine Howard was killed by Anne Boleyn.DAdmiral Thomas Seymour was killed by Henry VIII.64What is the attitude of the author towards Queen Elizabeth never marrying in her life?APitiful.BApproving. CNegative. DNeutral.CA euphemism (from the Greek words eu-well and pheme-speak) is a word or expression that is used when people want to find a polite or less direct way of talking about difficult or embarrassing topics like death or the bodily functions. Most people, for example, would find it very difficult to say in plain language that they have arranged for their sick old dog to be killed. They would soften the pain by saying: We had Ruby put down or We had Ruby put to sleep. Many people prefer to call someone plain than ugly, or cuddly rather than fat.Euphemisms are an important part of every language, but it seems that English has an ever-growing number of them. The non-native speaker not only has to make sense of the euphemisms he hears, he also has to learn which euphemisms are appropriate in any particular situation. He might be aware that his American friend needs to use the toilet when she asks where the bathroom (or restroom, or comfort station) is, but he is less likely to guess that his English friend has the same need when he says he has to see a man about a dog. He might have learned, for example, that in the family way is a euphemism for pregnant. If, however, he says to his boss, Congratulations! I hear your wife is in the family way, he would be using an expression that is too familiar for the circumstances.Schools are full of euphemisms. At Frankfurt International School, for example, the special lessons given to students who are having difficulties in their school subjects are called Study Center (in the middle school) and Academic Workshop (in the high school). Teachers rightly do not want to upset students or parents by being too frank or straight-forward, and usually choose a softer word or expression to convey the same message.65. According to the passage, people use euphemisms in order to .A. make themselves understoodB. attract attentionC. to sound straightforwardD. avoid embarrassment66. A person who is described as plain and cuddly is in fact .A. tall and handsome B. ugly and fatC. ugly but tall D. pretty and slim67. When an English lady says she has to see a man about a dog, she might want to .A. go to the toilet B. see an ugly friendC. have her old dog killed D. see a pregnant woman68. The main purpose of Paragraph 2 is to .A. stress that euphemisms are an important part of every languageB. inform readers that English has an ever-growing number of euphemismsC. warn English learners to be careful about the meaning and use of euphemismsD. suggest non-native speakers use euphemisms as often as possible69. At Frankfurt International School, the students who receive lessons in Study Center .A. work hard at their lessons B. do well in schoolC. have poor grades in the subjects D. prefer to learn moreD In this age of Internet chat, video games and reality television, there is no shortage of mindless activities to keep a child occupied. Yet despite the competition, my 8-year-old daughter Rebecca wants to spend her leisure time writing short stories. She wants to enter one of her stories into a writing contest, a competition which she won last year.As a writer, I know about winning contests and about losing them. I know what it is like to work hard on a story only to receive a rejection letter from the publisher. I also know the pressure of trying to live up to a reputation created by previous victories. What if she doesnt win the contest again? Thats the strange thing about being a parent. So many of our own past scars and destroyed hopes can resurface in our children.A revelation (启示) came last week when I asked her, “Dont you want to win again?” “No,” she replied, “I just want to tell the story of an angel going to first grade.”I had just spent weeks correcting her stories as she spontaneously (自发地) told them. Telling myself that I was merely an experienced writer guiding the young writer across the hall, I offered suggestions for characters, conflicts and endings for her tales. The story about a fearful angel starting first grade
