He had an unhappy childhood. Later, Yeats shocked his family by saying that he remembered “little of childhood but its pain”. In fact, he inherited (继承）excellent taste in art from his family — both his father and his brother were painters. But he finally settled on literature，especially drama (戏剧）and poetry.Yeats believed strongly in the coming of new artistic movements. He set himself the fresh task in founding an Irish national theater in the late 1890s. His early theatrical experiments were not accepted at the beginning. He didn’t lose heart, and finally enjoyed success in his poetical drama.Compared with his dramatic works, Yeats’s poems attract much attention. The subject matter includes love, nature, history, time and aging. Though Yeats generally depended on very traditional forms, he brought modem things to them. As his literary (文学) life progressed, his poetry grew finer and richer, which made him become celebrated.He had not enjoyed a major public life after winning the Nobel Prize in 1923. Yet, he continued writing almost to the end of his life. If Yeats stopped Writing at the age of 40, he would probably now be considered as a minor (小的) poet, for there is no other example in literary history of a poet who produces his greatest works after the age of 50. After Yeats’s death in 1939, W. H. Auden wrote the following lines:Earth, receive an honored guest William Yeats is laid to rest Let the Irish vessel (船) lie Emptied of its poetry.()34.

How old was Yeats when he died?A. 86.B. 74.C. 65.D. 81.()37. Why did the writer write the passage?A. To tell us Yeats and his writing experiences.B. To tell us how Yeats succeeded.C.

Why is clean water so important to developing countries? A recent report shows that about 80 percent of diseases in developing countries are caused by poor water and low sanitation (卫生) conditions. In those countries, women and girls spend several hours collecting water, but often polluted, far away from their families. The polluted water more or less influences their health. In this case, there is an urgent need for people in developing countries to have chances to use clean water to improve their health.Here is a short story about Hadjara Zakari, a 12-year-old girl in Niger. Having the opportunities to use clean water changed her life. She learnt about the importance of handwashing when the school first received clean water three years ago. That evening, she told her father, “You shouldn’t eat with me unless you clean your hands.” Her father was very angry and shouted at her，“It’s not up to you to tell me what to do!”Surprised, Hadjara sat in silence. But she knew she was right. In protest (抗议)，Hadjara refosed to eat dinner that night. After her father questioned Hadjara’s head teacher, he understood her. The girl really wanted her family to live a longer and healthier life.For people in developing countries, clean water can change many things, especially improve their health. So, from now on, let’s avoid wasting water and take action to save water, which is important to people all over the world.()38. Who usually spends several hours collecting water in developing countries?A. Children.B. Women and girls.C. Men and boys.D. Old people.()39. What does the underlined word “urgent” in the first paragraph mean?A. Something that needs to be dealt with immediately.B. Something that needs to be accepted immediately.C.

Because she didn’t respect her father at all.B. Because she thought her father’s hands were dirty.C. Because she thought they had enough clean water.D. Because she wanted to live with her family healthily.()41. Where may we find this passage?A. In a TV show.B. In a speech.C. In a storybook.D. In a diary.ENowadays people take taxis by a new way online, like DiDi. This is a hot way. It is also very convenient. Car-hailing company DiDi signed an agreement with TAL Education Group to provide free online courses for the children of taxi drivers. The courses, worth 30 million yuan, cover all subjects from primary to high school. Children can study the courses at home, saving parents’ time to send or pick upchildren from offline afterschool classes.According to Zhu Jingshi, vice president of DiDi, all the 153 million registered (注册）taxi drivers of DiDi can ask for the courses on the company’s mobile app. The car-hailing company will evaluate (评价）the drivers and provide courses on the basis of the time they became registered drivers with the company, the number of passengers served and evaluation from passengers.The health and education of children have remained top priorities of Chinese parents, including taxi drivers. A survey done by DiDi and TAL showed that although the average (平均的）monthly income of taxi drivers is only 6,000 yuan, many would like to pay 40 percent of their income for their children’s education.The survey found that most taxi drivers were born in the 1970s and 1980s and worked seven days a week. More than 70 percent of them have children under 18 but very few have time to be with family and children. Only 8 percent of them said they had guided their children in doing homework. Because of these, 60 percent of drivers hope their children could receive the guidance from professional services.()42. What does the underlined sentence in the third paragraph mean?A.
