What little training he did have began when he was placed in the New Orleans Colored Waifs Home at the age of 12, after a run-in with the police. The punishment turned out to be a mixed blessing, for he also had the opportunity to play in a real band.While at the Waifs Home, Armstrong also got the chance to hear some of the citys finest musicians. Cornetist Freddie Keppard performed in a nearby club. So did trumpeter and bandleader King Joe Oliver, who took the boy under his wing and taught him how to read music and work on his playing technique.When Oliver left for Chicago, Armstrong chose to stay in New Orleans and work with some ofthe other top musicians of the day. In Chicago, King Oliver offered him a place in his band in 1922.

Several months ago, high fashion brand Balenciaga released a “T-shirt shirt”, which is a shirt sewn on the front of a T-shirt. The unusual design has certainly confused a lot of people.But the “double shirt” isnt fighting alone on the frontier of strange fashion. Ever since US shoe manufacturer Crocs released its famous hole-filled foam shoes, so-called “ugly fashion” hasnt showed any signs of slowing down, the Business of Fashion website noted.The rise of ugly fashion is a sign that people are bored of looking perfect all the time. Indeed, fashion is all about changes. Something thats considered uncool one minute can then turn out to be the latest must-have fashion item the next. In the eyes of US fashion writer Megan Collins, ugly doesnt necessarily mean the design of the item is ugly. After all, ugly is something subjective. “Uglyfashion means not the mainstream its not what everyones wearing; its not what the general population considers as in right now,” she told style news site Fashionista. But throughout the history of fashion, when any new trend appears, most people tend to hate it, before it eventually bees loved.Meanwhile, popular social media fashion bloggers also help people to pick up new ugly fashion trends. These bloggers express themselves through their clothes, showing their unique personalities and making statements with their wardrobe (衣物) choices.“I personally love having a unique expression, because without ugly fashion and diversity, wedall look the same,” Australian fashion influencer and model Zanita Whittington told Fashionista. “I appreciate anything thats out of the norm.”28. How does the author lead to the topic of the passage?A. By telling a funny story.B. By asking and answering questions.C. By asking questions and giving examples.D. By giving different remarks from different people.29. The underlined word “in” in the passage could be replaced by .A. uglyB. fashionableC. affordableD. expensive30. What will some social media fashion bloggers do to show their personalities?A. They will dress themselves to look perfect.B. They will try some new and exciting clothes.C. They will make statements with others clothes choices.D. They will express themselves by wearing ugly clothes.31. What can we infer from Zanita Whittingtons words?A. She is in favor of ugly fashion trends.B. She doesnt care about fashion at all.C. She hopes to be the same as others.D. She wants to look ugly as a model.DHowever exciting space exploration sounds, theres a vital point about it that needs to be considered: food supplies. Right now, astronauts typically rely on dry food in airtight bags and cans, since there are strict weight limits on items taken into space. Foods that we take for granted, such as fresh fruits and vegetables, are out of the question for space explorers.For those whove attempted to grow food during space missions, theyve faced many difficulties, including the absence of gravity, and a lack of soil, air and humidity ( 湿 度 ). However, growing food to supplement and minimize (最小化) the food that must be carried to space will be increasingly important on long-duration missions. Great efforts have been made to explore theconcept of space farming. Recently, a team led by Federico Maggi at the University of Sydney in Australia figured out how plants can absorb nutrients from human urine ( 尿 ), as reported by New Scientist on March 27.After over 20 years of experiments, the results suggested that human urine could supply three to four out of the six nutrients that plants need. The researchers also found out that urine-fertilized plants produce no harmful by-products, such as carbon dioxide or ammonia.According to New Scientist, human urine is 95 percent water, with the other 5 percent posed of nutrients which are harmful to the human body but not to plants. The advantage of this urine-fueled life support system is obvious: By recycling liquid waste and producing food, an efficient cycle will be created.And most importantly, said New Scientist, the duration of space missions will be greatly extended to “20 years of flight”, meaning we may be soon sending astronauts on missions to Mars, or even beyond.32. Space farming is important mainly because .A. food brought from Earth goes bad easily during space flightsB. it will keep astronauts busy when they are on long-term space missionsC. it could provide astronauts with fresh food and reduce the need to bring food from EarthD. its a way for astronauts to learn more about the environment in space33. What can we learn from the University of Sydney research?A. Human urine is harmless to plants.B. Human urine provides six necessary nutrients for plants.C. Urine fertilizer is safer and more productive than chemical fertilizer.D. Urine-fertilized plants only release a small amount of carbon dioxide.34. What is the biggest advantage of using human urine for space farming, according to New Scientist?A. It does little harm to the environment in space.B. It could pave the way for long-term space flights.C. It will greatly reduce the cost of farming in space.D. Urine-fertilized plants are healthier and taste better.35. Whats the text mainly about?A. The significance of space farming.B. Problems facing astronauts on long-term space flights.C. How to use human urine to produce food in space.D. A possible new way to grow food in space.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。选项中有两项为多余选项。Teaching is an often thankless yet very important job.
