Often 36 to as TCKs (Third Culture Kids) or Global Nomads, these students have a(n) 37 impact on the global munity. So who are these Third Culture Kids? They are not a new phenomenon. As one looks 38 history, there is a realization that certain groups of people have led highly 39 lives, a key 40 in describing TCKs. They often 41 their parents into another country and spend a significant part of his or her development years outside the parents culture. They are 42 to new cultures and to other people in the munity who 43 move constantly. Their numbers 44 into the hundreds of thousands and are increasing. Ease of 45 and constant relocation of people through multinational panies and global business links contribute to this 46 . The question “Who am I?” is frequently asked by TCKs. They have 47 a host of cultural identities, and have built relationships to all the cultures, 48 not having full ownership of any. Although elements from each culture are absorbed into TCKs life experience, the sense of 49 is in relationship to others of a similar background. As you enter into the world of TCKs, one might suspect they are no 50 . But it is 51 , after spending only a short time with them, that they bring a deep knowledge from inside and a special ability to pare 52 and local issues. They represent many countries and cultures. They are the future cross-culturalists and 53 future politicians, diplomats, government employees and educators. They certainly experience a different lifestyle pared to their mono-cultural peers but we can benefit from their global and 54 lives. So, whatever one chooses to label the international students as -TCKs, Global Nomads, or Global Souls -we will gain unbelievable 55 .36. A. submittedB. appealedC. subscribedD. referred37.

Though the atmosphere between the luxury suites and the budget rooms may differ，they are all subject to the bone-chilling-5 temperaturesTo get a good nights rest guests have to lie inside sleeping bags and keep their gloves and hats onThough that seems a little unfortable，visitors say it is an experience like none otherThe hotel also features a beautifully crafted ice church where over 100 couples will get married this year and an Ice Bar that will serve drinks in ice glassesThough dining options are limited to the hotels only restaurant，guests will have little to plain about with Michelintrained chef Alexander MeierTo keep customers entertained，the hotel offers a variety of fun activities like snowshoeing，moose or snowmobile safaris，dog sledding，and even overnight wilderness campingThe 26-year-old tradition began accidentally in 1989 when locals organized an art exhibition to draw winter visitors to the remote village that lies 200 km north of the Arctic CircleAmong the many tourists was an adventurous group and they announced their intention of spending the night in the place where the exhibition was being heldThats when the idea of building the icy acmodations dawned on the locals56Why is Swedens Icehotel rebuilt every year?AIt needs more rooms BIt is entirely built from iceCIt follows old traditions DIt can be easily decorated57What is unique about the hotel this year?AIt opens earlier than ever before BMore expensive rooms are availableCRoom prices are more affordable DSome rooms have theme sculptures58What can be inferred about the hotel in Paragraph 3?AIts service needs improving BIts activities may be boringCIt tries to appeal to customers DIts food is not delicious at a11BBooks, Films and Plays The novelists medium is the written word, one might almost say the printed word. Typically the novel is consumed by a silent, individual reader, who may be anywhere at the time. The paperback novel is still the cheapest, most portable and adaptable form of narrative entertainment. It is limited to a single channel of information-writing. The narrative can go, effortlessly, anywhere: into space, peoples head, palaces, prisons and pyramids, without any consideration of cost or practical possibility. In determining the shape and content of his narrative, the writer is restricted by nothing except purely artistic criteria. The novelist keeps absolute control over his text until it is published and received by the audience. He may be advised by his editor to revise his text, but if the writer refused to meet this condition no one would be surprised. It is not unknown for a well-established novelist to deliver his or her manuscript(手稿) and expect the publisher to print it exactly as written.However, not even the most well-established playwright or screenplay writer would submit a script and expect it to be performed without any rewriting. This is because plays and motion pictures are cooperative forms of narrative, using more than one channel of munication.The production of a stage play involves, as well as the words of the author, the physical presence of the actors, their voices and gestures, the “set” and possibly music. Although the script is the essential basis of both stage play and film, it is a basis for subsequent revision negotiated between the writer and the other creative people involved. They are given “approval” of the choice of director and actors and have the right to attend rehearsals(排演), during which period they may undertake more rewriting work. In the case of the screenplay, the writer may have little or no control over the final form of his work. Contracts for the production of plays protect the rights of authors in this respect.In film or television work, on the other hand, the screenplay writer has no contractual right to this degree of consultation. While the script is going through its various drafts, the writer is in the drivers seat, although sometimes receiving criticism from the producer and the director. But once the production is under way, artistic control over the project tends to pass to the director. This is a fact overlooked by most journalistic critics of television drama, who tend(unlike film critics) to give all the credit or blame for success or failure of a production to the writer and actors, ignoring the contribution, for good or ill, of the director.59. Where might you find the passage?A. In a textbook.B. In a movie magazine. C. In a travelling brochure.D. In a shopping guide.60. Which of these subtitles would be most appropriate?A. Why does the future look good for writers of books, plays and films?B. What do audiences want from these three forms of entertainment?C. How do these forms of media pare for their producers?D. What benefit can we get from these forms of media?61. Why can the novelist expect the publisher to print the manuscript exactly as written?A. Because the novelist keeps absolute control over his text.B. Because the paperback novel is most portable and adaptable.C. Because the novel is limited to a single channel of information-writing.D. Because the novelist is seldom advised by editors to revise the text.62. Which of the following statements is True according to the passage?A. Playwrights envy the simplicity of the novelists work.B. Experience in the theatre improves the work of screenplay writers.C. Screenplay writers usually have the final say in how a TV drama will turn out.D. Playwrights are frequently involved in revising their work.63. What can be implied from the last sentence of the passage?A. TV critics often blame the wrong people for the failure of a program.B. The director is a determining factor in the future of a television drama.C. Few people know that the screenplay writer is often criticized by the director.D. It is urgent for the film critics to realize their mistakes. CIn her new book, “The Smartest Kids in the World,” Amanda Ripley, an investigative journalist, tells the story of Tom, a high-school student from Gettysburg, Pennsylvania, who decides to spend his senior year in Warsaw, Poland. Poland is a surprising educational success story: in the past decade, the country raised students test scores from significantly below average to well above it. Polish kids have now outscored(超过分数) American kids in math and science, even though Poland spends, on average, less than half as much per student as the United States does. One of the most striking differences between the high school Tom attended in Gettysburg and the one he ends up at in Warsaw is that the latter has no football team, or, for that matter, teams of any kind.That American high schools waste more time and money on sports than on math is an old plaint. This is not a matter of how any given student who plays sports does in school, but of the culture and its priorities. This December, when the latest Program for International Student Assessment(PISA) results are announced, its safe to predict that American high-school students will once again display their limited skills in math and reading, outscored not just by students in Poland but also by students in places like South Korea, Belgium, the Netherlands, Finland, Singapore, and Japan. Meanwhile, they will have played some very exciting football games, which will have been breathlessly written up in their hometown papers. Why does this situation continue? Well, for one thing, kids like it. And for another, according to Ripley, parents seem to like the arrangement, too. She describes a tour she took of a school in Washington D.C., which costs thirty thousand dollars a year. The tour leadera mother with three children in the schoolwas asked about the schools flaws(暇疵). When she said that the math program was weak, none of the parents taking the tour reacted. When she said that the football program was weak, the parents suddenly became concerned. “Really?” one of them asked worriedly, “What do you mean?”One of the ironies(讽刺) of the situation is that sports reveal what is possible. American kids performance on the field shows just how well they can do when expectations are high. Its too bad that their test scores show the same thing. 64. According to Paragraph 2, we know that _. A. too much importance is placed on sports in America B. little time is spent on sports in Japanese schools C. American high schools plain about sports time D. PISA plays a very important role in America65. The underlined sentence in the last paragraph means _. A. American students academic performance worries their parents a lot B. high expectations push up American students academic performance C. low expectations result in American students poor PISA performance D. lacking practice contributes to American students average performance66. The purpose of this article is to _. A. draw public attention to a weakness in American school tradition B. call on American schools to learn from the Polish model C. pare Polish schools with those in America D. explain what is wrong with American schools and provide solutions DJane arrives at Thornfield, having been met at the Georg
