A
In his 402nd anniversary year, Shakespeare is still rightly celebrated as a great language master and writer. But he was not the only great master of play writing to die in 1616, and he is certainly not the only writer to have left a lasting influence on theater.
While less known worldwide, Tang Xianzu is considered one of Chinas greatest playwrights and is highly spoken of in that country of ancient literary and dramatic traditions.
Tang was born in 1550 inLinchuan,Jiangxiprovince. Unlike Shakespeare's large body of plays,poems and sonnets (十四行诗), Tang wrote only four major plays: The Purple Hairpin, Peony Pavilion (《牡丹亭》), A Dream under the Southern bough, and Dream of Handan. The latter three were constructed around a dream narrative, a way through which Tang unlocked the emotional dimension of human desires and ambitions and explored human nature beyond the social and political limits of that time.
Similar to Shakespeare, Tang's success rode the wave of a renaissance (复兴) in theater as an artistic practice. As in Shakespeare'sEngland, Tang's works became hugely popular inChinatoo. During Tang'sChina, his plays were enjoyed performed, and changed. Kunqu Opera, a form of musical drama, spread from southernChinato the whole nation and became a symbol of Chinese culture. Combining northern tune and southern music, kunqu Opera was known for its poetic language, music, dance movements and gestures. Tang's works benefited greatly from the popularity of kunqu Opera, and his plays are considered classics of kunqu Opera.
While Tang and Shakespeare lived in a world away from each other, there are many things they share in common, such e humanity of their drama, their heroic figures, their love for poetic language, a lasting popularity and the anniversary during which we still celebrate them. 1. Why is Shakespeare mentioned in the first paragraph? A. To describe Shakespeare's anniversary. B. To introduce the existence of Tang Xianzu. C. To explain the importance of Shakespeare. D. To suggest the less popularity of Tang Xianzu.
2. What's possibly one of the main theme of Tang's works?
A. Social reality. B. Female dreams.
C. Human emotions. D. Political environment. 3. What does the author mainly tell us in Paragraph 4? A. The influence of Kunqu Opera on Tang's works. B. Tang's success in copying Shakespeare's styles.
C. The way Kunqu Opera became a symbol of Chinese culture. D. Tang's popularity for his poetic language and music.

A 25-year-old American with a university degree can expect to livea decade longer than a peer who dropped out of high school. Although researchers have long known that the rich live longer than the poor, this education gap is less well documented. And although the average American’s expected span(预期寿命) has been smooth in recent year—and, shockingly, even fell between 2015 and 2017—that of the one-third with a bachelor’s degree has continued to lengthen.
This gap in life expectancy is growing, according to new research published in the report of the National Academy of Sciences. Anne Case and Angus Deation ofPrincetonUniversityfound that the lifespans of those with and without a bachelor’s degree started to become different in the 1990s and 2000s. This gap grew even wider in the 2010s.
What is the link between schooling and longevity(长寿)? Some argue that better-educated people develop healthier lifestyles: each additional year of study reduces the chances of being a smoker and of being overweight. The better-educated earn more, which in turn is associated with greaterhealth.
Ms Case and Mr Deaton argue that changes in labor markets, including the rise of automation and increased demand for highly-educated workers, coupled with the rising costs of employer-provided health care, have decreased the supply of well-paid jobs for those without a degree. This may be contributing to higher rates of alcohol and drug use, suicide and other “deaths of despair”.
The authors argued that the educational gap in mortality(致死率) will widenin the wake ofthe covid-19 pandemic. ForAmerica’s overall life expectancy to start climbing again, improvements will be needed across all social groups, not just among the privileged few.
4. When did the lifespans of people with and without a degree vary greatly? A. In the 1990s. B. In the 2020s C. In the 2000s D. In the 2010s
5. According to the article, changes in labor markets reduce jobs for those without a degree. Which change is NOT included?
A. The rising spending of employer-provided health care. B. The gap in life expectancy.
C. Raised request for better-educated workers. D. The development of automation.
6. What does the underlined phrase “in the wake of” probably mean ? A. after B. until C. before D. while 7. What is the best title for the text? A. Changes in labor market. B. Quit bad habits by Further study C. Educated Americans live longer.
D. Highly-educated people develop healthier lifestyles.

In Copenhagen, an 8-year dream was realized when the first paid skiers took their runs down a one-third-mile course (路线)．They skied on what is possibly the greenestpower factory in the world．The factory is so clean and safe that designers were able to turn its buildings into a new center for social life．
The waste-to-power factory itself opened in 2017 under the name Amager Bakke．Bjarke Ingels is the architect whosecompany came up with the idea eight years ago of designing a power plant building that would join mountain sports into its very nature．
“It is the cleanest waste-to-energy power plant in the world．It is not only better for the environment, it is also moreenjoyable for the lives of its citizens.” Ingels says 97% of city people get their heating as a by-product of energy production．It comes from a system where the electricity, heating, and waste disposal (处理) are mixed into a single process．He dreams that it is also becoming an example that others can look to and say, “IfCopenhagencan do it why can' t we?\"
There are no hills in this island city, but now people can ski locally, while enjoying the best views ever seen of the harbor．Another thing missing hereis snow cover throughout the winter, so designers set up a kind of special \"plastic grass\" that provides the perfect friction (摩擦力) for downhill winter sports．
In a country where 600, 000 skiers always had to travel to practice sking, to be able to finally ski in their backyard-and, all year round - is, as one skier said, “AMAZING．”
The company hopes to see 300, 000 visitors enjoying the experience of Copen hill each year, with the ski slope costing $ 22 an hour or just $ 366 for a full season pass．Meanwhile, the city is one step closer to its final goal of becoming the world's first carbon-neutral city by 2025．We thinkit might be all “down hill” from here． 8. How does the power factory produce electricity?
A. By using oil． B. By using coal． C. By usingwind． D. By using waste． 9. What' s Ingels' dream according to the passage? A. To make more tall buildings in different big cities． B. To help more skiers to ski in high mountains．
C. There will be more green power factories in the world． D. More and more people will ski in the power factory． 10. Where do the skiers ski in the power factory?
A. On man-made snow． B. On man-made ice． C. On plastic grass． D. On real sand．
11. The underlined part “it might be all 'downhill' from here\" means that________. A. they will soon reach their final goal B. they will soon draw many visitors C. they will produce more electricity D. they have difficulties reaching the goal

My sister Alice and I have been trying to get people tostop dropping cigarette（香烟）butts（烟头）for seven years. One day, we were walking in our hometown and saw hundreds of cigarette butts on the ground. They made the town look so ugly that we decided to start a group to make people dropping butts. We called it “No Butts About It”.
At first, we drew pictures with “The Earth is not your ashtray（烟灰缸）”written on them. We put the pictures around our hometown—in parks, by beaches, and along roads. We wanted to make people understand that dropping butts hurts the environment. Most smokers don’t think that dropping butts hurts the Earth. But it does, and all rubbish does!
Later, we wrote to companies and asked them for money to help us. We used the money to buy ashtrays to give to smokers. We wanted smokers to carry the ashtrays with them so they didn’t have to drop butts.
At the moment, we are trying to get cigarette companies to put an ashtray in each pack of cigarettes. Some
companies want to do it. Many people have started to join our group since it began. Today there are 45 other “No Butts About It” groups inAmerica.
Now there even groups inEngland,Australia, andIndia! Many newspapers have written about my sister and me over the last seven years. And we have won many prizes for what we do. But we are not interested in prizes. We just want to make the Earth a better and cleaner place for animals, plants and people.
One day, it will be.
12. What did the writer think about the cigarette butts in the first place? A. They made the town smelly. B. They made the town unhealthy. C. They made the town dirty. D. They made the town poor. 13. What does the writer do with the cigarette butts?
A. Give ashtrays to the smokers. B. Stop people buying cigarettes. C. Pick up the cigarette butts. D. Win prizes for starting groups. 14. From the passage we can know that _____. A. no companies wanted to give money to them
B. The writer believes that the Earth will be a better and cleaner place C. There are only 45”No Butts About It”
D. The writer likes to be on newspapers and win prizes 215. Which is the best tittle for the passage?
A. Save our Town From Cigarette Butts. B. Buy Yourself An Ashtray. C. Cigarette Butts Also Destroy Other Countries. D. No Butts Prize. 第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）
