1．B 考查推理判断。
根据“Why slow？”中的“The most important...see and experience art without an expert”并结合全文大意可知，本文介绍慢艺术日的情况，因此文章开头引用梭罗的话是为了引入主题。
2．C 考查细节理解。
根据“How does it work？”部分中的“Participants look at five works of art for 10 minutes each and then meet together over lunch to talk about their experience”可知，在这项活动中，参加的人先自己观看艺术作品，然后聚在一起谈论他们的体验，故选C项。
3．A 考查推理判断。
根据“How does it work？”部分中的“One day each year”可知，该活动每年举办一次；再结合“By the numbers”部分中的“since its official launch in 2010”可知，该活动首次举办于2010年。
故可推知2017年为第八届。
因此A项正确。
4．B 考查推理判断。
本文作者介绍了慢艺术日，结合最后一部分最后一句“Join us and experience art differently”可知，作者推荐此活动并希望更多的人参与，故选B项。
二、单句语法填空1．We urged that she ________ (come) to the party, but she protested that she was too tired.答案：(should) come urge “强烈要求”后跟从句时，从句的谓语动词常用虚拟语气，即“should＋动词原形”，should可以省略。

Under the sea李仕才一、阅读理解When I was in the sixth grade, I became a big K-pop (Korean pop) fan. Almost half the students at my middle school were Korean and almost all of them listened to Korean music, especially K-pop. I had never been interested in it. It sounded too strange to me, but all changed in the sixth grade when the huge hit Gee came out. All my friends were singing the chorus and imitating the dance. Gee fever sucked me into K-pop. It became my life. I listened to K-pop non-stop and filled my iPod with it. In a month, I had memorized the names of countless members of boy and girl bands and stuck pictures of my singer ＂boyfriends＂ on my walls. I would ditch my weekend art and math classes and go to concerts with my friends. This would always result in my mom shouting that I was wasting my life. My mom thought K-pop was trash and wanted me to like classical music as she did. But classical music made me sleepy.Every day during middle school I went to a K-pop gossip and news site called . On this site I learned that I could audition(试音) to become a singer in a K-pop band. The shining clothes, thousands of screaming fans and hearing them chant my name seemed much more exciting than being a middle school student. Becoming a K-pop star was all I wanted.I started watching the audition videos of current stars and reading blog posts from people who had auditioned. They explained much about the audition. This made me want to audition even more.

April 23 marks the 400th anniversary of William Shakespeare’s death. Organizations in Britain have planned numerous events to honor him.In Stratford-upon-Avon, his birthplace, the tourism organization has a great number o f free events, including performances of Shakespeare’s plays, and a dazzling fireworks display. And the BBC is broadcasting a live show from Stratfore-upon-Avon, celebrating Shakespeare’s widespread influence on the world. In England’s capital, the London Shakespeare Centre and King’s College London are holding a series of public performances, exhibitions and activities. It isn’t just England that honors the anniversary of the death of this extraordinary writer. In Washington, D. C., the Folger Shakespeare Library, which houses the world’s largest collection of documents relating to William Shakespeare, is displaying a series of exhibitions.Shakespeare is probably the most famous author who ever lived and is considered a genius by most. He wrote around 37 plays and 154 sonnets(十四行诗), and his work has been translated into over one hundred languages! He penned beautiful metaphors(暗喻), serious dramas and amusing tales.Shakespeare also invented many new terms and phrases. If someone’s behavior suggested they were not being honest and should not be trusted, Shakespeare called their actions suspicious. If someone was being silly and perhaps looking like a fool, Shakespeare found their actions laughable. And Shakespeare called people who offered their opinions on the quality of something critics. Today, for instance, food critics and film critics give audiences their opinions of food and film. The familiar phrase ＂break the ice＂comes from Shakespeare’s play The Taming of the Shrew. The ＂ice is broken＂ when a difficult conversation or meeting is calmed by some basic introduction, such as a simple game. More common words coined by Shakespeare include road, gossip, lonely, bump and hurry.Four hundred years after his death, Shakespeare surely lives on, in everyday speech, as the most famous writer of all time!1. The main idea of the text is _______.A. the 400th anniversary of Shakespeare’s deathB. the influence Shakespeare has on EnglishC. the achievements of William ShakespeareD. Shakespeare’s colorful and fruitful life2. Shakespeare is honored in the following ways except_________.A. a great number of free events in Stratford-upon-AvonB. a series of activities in the London Shakespeare CentreC. a series of exhibitions in the Folger Shakespeare LibraryD. a live show of Shakespeare from Stratford-upon-Avon3. According to the next, a simply game to make a difficult conversation easy is called _______.A. an ice-breakerB. a suspicious manC. a criticD. a laughable man【文章大意】4月23日是威廉·莎士比亚逝世第四百周年纪念日。

You use her as a shoulder to cry on. She texts you back with casual jokes. But she, Xiaoice, is only a virtual chatbot(虚拟聊天机器人).Xiaoice, Microsoft’s latest artificial intelligence robot, was briefly released in 2014, and returned to WeChat in 2015, where she became a big hit. Millions of young Chinese now exchange messages with her daily, the New York Times reported. On WeChat, Xiaoice is an official account. After following it, users can start text-based conversations with Xiaoice.“Her incredible learning ability was why people loved to talk with Xiaoice, ” Liu Jinchang, a researcher at High-tech Research and Development Center under the Ministry of Science and Technology, told China Daily. Apart from her ability to identify photos and send emojis(表情符号)in conversations, Xiaoice gains 45 percent of her knowledge from interacting with users, China Daily reported.Chatbot programs first appeared in the mid-1960s in the US. Driven by top tech companies, they are becoming s marter and more common. For instance, IBM’s latest artificial intelligence program served as an academic consultant at Australia’s Deakin University, answering students’ questions about course schedules and financial aid. Apple’s Siri and Amazon’s Alexa ha ve been used as voice assistants who can read news, play music and even make jokes for their users.These programs are expected to move beyond smartphones, into televisions, cars and living rooms, the New York Times pointed out. However, it may take decades before scientists develop a “Samantha”, the advanced chatbot seen in the fiction film Her. In the film, Samantha has a romantic relationship with her user played by US actor Joaquin Phoenix. Many viewers were enthusiastic about this fantasy of virtual soul mates.【文章大意】本文讲述的是人工智能程序的发展情况, 列举了微信上的聊天程序大受欢迎, IBM的人工智能程序能成为顾问, 但是目前这种程序主要应用在智能手机上, 人们期待它将来可以在手机以外的地方使用。

Grandparents who help out occasionally with childcare in their community tend to live longer than seniors who do not care for other people，according to a study from Berlin，Germany.“Having no contact with grandchildren at a ll can negatively impact grandparents' health.This link could be deeply rooted in our evolutionary past when help with childcare was important for the survival of the human species，”said Sonja Hilbrand，one of the researchers.The findings are drawn from data on more than 500 people over age 70.Overall，after accounting for grandparents' age and general state of health，the risk of dying over a 20year period was onethird lower for grandparents who cared for their grandchildren，compared with grandparents who provided no childcare.Caregiving was associated with a longer life even when the care receiver wasn't a relative.Half of all childless seniors who provided support to friends or neighbors lived for seven years after the study began，while nonhelpers lived for four years on average.“Caregiving may give caregivers a purpose of life because they may feel useful for others and society.Caregiving may be thought also as an activity that keeps caregivers physically and mentally active，”said Professor Bruno Arpin o.Arpino noted，however, that caregiving is not the only activity that can improve health and that too many caring responsibilities can take away from other beneficial activities like working，being in social clubs，or volunteering.“Children should take_into_account their parents' needs，willingness，and desires and agree with them on the timing and amount of childcare，”he suggested.“It is very important that every individual decides for himself/herself, what ‘proper amounts of help' means，”Hilbrand said，adding，“As long as you do not feel stressed about the intensity (强度)of help you provide you may be doing something good for others as well as for yourself.”1．What is the caregiving study based on?A．Human evolutionary history.B．Demand of modern society.C．Social contact between relatives.D．Data on many elderly people.2．In Arpino's opinion，childcare ________.A．is sure to keep old people away from illnessesB．allows old people to live a more meaningful lifeC．creates more job opportunities for old peopleD．makes social activities inaccessible to old people3．What does the underlined part“take into account”in Paragraph 6 probably mean?A．Limit. B．Ignore.C．Favor. D．Consider.4．What does the last paragraph tell us?A．Grandparents can do anything in their own interests.B．Grandparents should share more social responsibilities.C．Proper amounts of childcare do good to grandparents.D．Caregiving guarantees every grandparent a longer life.【解题导语】德国柏林一项研究发现，祖父母适当地帮忙照顾孙辈比不照顾孙辈的老年人寿命长。

选修7 Unit 3 Under the sea李仕才一、阅读理解A recent survey in the United States showed that the average family spent more money on its pets than on its children・ Although rather shocking, it should not surprise anyone who has seen the doggy parlours(^JT) where loved pets rest. Are Americans uni que in treating their lit tie friends in thi s way? No, the En glish, too, pay more attention to their pets.This can clearly be seen when we look at pet foods, which often contain more vitamins than human food. They certainly cost much. Last year the British public spent two hundred million pounds on pet food alone, to say nothing of veterinary bills or animal furniture. Tt is difficult not to feel angry about this when considering what the same amount could do for victims of starvation and poverty, so it" s not unusual for me to get hot under collar when I read an old man left all his money to his dog instead of his children.There are a variety of reasons why I find pets-raising alarming. They cause physical problems. An example of this is New York where they have great difficulty getting rid of the mess that dogs leave on the streets. Many people find this funny, but in a number of large cities it is a major problem・ Animals can cause disease, too. It is the threat of babies 一 a disease with no known cure.Another problem is the carelessness of pet owners. Most little children want a dog or a cat, and they continual ly push their mothers and fathers unti 1 they get one. It is only when the M sweet 1ittle thing n has been brought home that the parents realize how much time and money must be spent on M Rover u or ” Bonzo " • Then they just abandon it. As a result, they are al lowed to run free. English farmers lose hundreds of sheep a year, killed by someone" s pet and you must have read of children being hurt by some pets of their own.Lastly, T would only suggest that we have got our priorities wrong and that something should be done about it. In my view, it，s time we stopped being sentimentai about pets. I can see no reason why we should get upset when animals are cut up formedical experiments. This wil 1 1 ead us to discovering cures for serious human diseases, then I say, n keep cutting! n1.The doggy parlours are mentioned in the 1st paragraph to show ___________________ ・A. what costly lives the pets are livingB・ where Americans keep their petsC. why chi 1dren love their pets so muchD・ how much pets depend on their masters2.In the seco nd paragraph 11 to get hot un der the col lar n probably mea ns _______________ .A. getting quite hotB・ becoming excitedC. feeling extremely angryD・ receiving a fashionable shirt3.According to the author, in which field can animals be most useful?A. Food.B. Sports.C. Entertainment.D. Medicine.4.What is the author" s attitude towards pets-raising?A. Sympathetic.B. Opposed.C. Pitiful.D. Supportive.【文章大意】这是一篇议论文。
