injured,displaced or sick creatures can be heartbreaking;survival is never certain.However,when it works,it is simply beautiful.I got a rescue call from a woman in Muttontown.She had found a young owl(猫头鹰)on the ground.When I arrived,I saw a 2﹣to 3﹣week﹣old owl.It had already been placed in a carrier for safety.I examined the chick(雏鸟)and it seemed fine.If I could locate the nest,I might have been able to put it back,but no luck.My next work was to construct a nest and anchor it in a tree.The homeowner was very helpful.A wire basket was found.I put some pine branches into the basket to make this nest safe and comfortable.I placed the chick in the nest,and it quickly calmed down.Now all that was needed were the parents,but they were absent.I gave the homeowner a recording of the hunger screams of owl chicks.These advertise the presence of chicks to adults;they might also encourage our chick to start calling as well.I gave the owner as much information as possible and headed home to see what news the night might bring.A nervous night to be sure,but sometimes the spirits of nature smile on us all!The homeowner called to say that the parents had responded to the recordings.I drove over and saw the chick in the nest looking healthy and active.And it was accompanied in the nest by the greatest sight of all﹣LUNCH!The parents had done their duty and would probably continue to do so.24.What is unavoidable in the author's rescue work according ro paragraph 1?A.Efforts made in vain.B.Getting injured in his work.C.Feeling uncertain about his

Educational,Scientific and Cultural Organization)recently set April 30 as a day to raise awareness of jazz music,its significance,and its potential as a unifying (联合)voice across cultures.Despite the celebrations,though,in the U.S.the jazz audience continues to shrink and grow older,and the music has failed to connect with younger generations.It's Jason Moran's job to help change that.As the Kennedy Center's artistic adviser for jazz,Moran hopes to widen the audience for jazz,make the music more accessible,and preserve its history and culture."Jazz seems like it's not really a part of the American appetite,"Moran tells National Public Radio's reporter Neal Conan."What I'm hoping to accomplish is that my generation and younger start to reconsider and understand that jazz is not black and write anymore.It's actually color,and it's actually digital."Moran says one of the problems with jazz today is that the entertainment aspect of the music has been lost."The music can't be presented today the way it was in 1908 or 1958.It has to continue to move,because the way the world works is not thesame,"says Moran.Last year,Moran worked on a project that arranged Fats Waller's music for a dance party,"just to kind of put it back in the mind that Waller is dance music as much as it is concert music,"says Moran."For me,it's the recontextualization.In music,where does the emotion(情感)lie?Are we,as abstract as a Charlie Parker record gets us into a dialogue about our emotions and our thoughts?Sometimes we lose sight that the music has a wider context,"says Moran,"so I want to continue those dialogues.Those are the things I want to foster."28.Why did UNESCO set April 30 as International Jazz Day?A.To remember the birth of jazz.B.To protect cultural diversity.C.To encourage people to study music.D.To recognize the value of jazz.29.What does the underlined word"that"in Paragraph 3 refer to?A.Jazz becoming more accessible.B.The production of jazz growing faster.C.Jazz being less popular with the young.D.The jazz audience becoming larger.30.What can we infer about Moran's opinion on jazz?A.It will disappear gradually.B.It remains black and white.C.It should keep up with the times.D.It changes every 50 years.31.Which of the following can be the best title for the text?A.Exploring the Future of Jazz.B.The Rise and Fall of Jazz.C.The Story of a Jazz Musician.D.Celebrating the Jazz Day.32.(8分)A buld﹣it﹣yourself solar still(蒸馏器)is one of the best ways to obtain drinking water in areas where the liquid is not readily available.Developed by two doctors in the U.S.Department of Agriculture,it's an excellent water collector.Unfortunately,you must carry the necessary equipment with you,since it's all but impossible to find natural substitutes.The only components required,though,are a 5'×5'sheet of clear or slightly milky plastic,six feet of plastic tube,and a container﹣perhaps just a drinking cup﹣to catch the water.These pieces can be folded into a neat little pack and fastened on your belt.To construct a working still,use a sharp stick or rock to dig a hole four feet across and three feet deep.Try to make the hole in a damp area to increase the water catcher's productivity.Place your cup in the deepest part of the hole.Then lay the tube in place so that one end rests all the way in the cup and the rest of the line runs up﹣and out﹣the side of the hole.Next,cover the hole with the plastic sheet,securing the edges of the plastic with dirt and weighting the sheet's center down with a rock.The plastic should now form a cone(圆锥体)with 45﹣degree﹣angled sides.The low point of the sheet must be centered directly over,and no more than three inches above,the cup.The solar still works by creating a greenhouse under the plastic.Ground water evaporates (蒸发)and collects on the sheet until small drops of water form,run down the material,and fall off into the cup.When the container is full,you can suck the refreshment out through the tube,and won't have to break down the still every time you need a drink.32.What do we know about the solar still equipment from the first paragraph?A.It's delicate.B.It's expensive.C.It's complex.D.It's portable.33.What does the underlined phrase"the water catcher"in paragraph 2 refer to?A.The tube.B.The still.C.The hole.D.The cup.34.What's the last step of constructing a working solar still?A.Dig a hole of a certain size.B.Put the cup in place.C.Weight the sheet's center down.D.Cover the hole with the plastic sheet.35.When a solar still works,drops of water come into the cup form.A.the plastic tubeB.outside the holeC.the open airD.beneath the sheet.第二节(共1小题;每小题10分,满分10分)36.(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.If anyone had told me three years ago that I would be spending most of my weekends camping.I would have laughed heartily.Campers,in my eyes,were people who enjoyed insects bites,ill﹣cooked meals,and uncomfortable sleeping bags.They had nothing in common with me.(36).The friends who introduced me to camping thought that it meant to be a pioneer.(37)We sleep in a tent,cooked over an open fire,and walked a long distance to take the shower and use the bathroom.This brief visit with Mother Nature cost me two days off from work,recovering from a bad case of sunburn and the doctor′s bill for my son′s food poisoning.I was,nevertheless,talked into going on another fun﹣filled holiday in the wilderness.(38)Instead,we had a pop﹣up camper with comfortable bedsand an air conditioner.My nature﹣loving friends had remembered to bring all the necessities of life.(39)We have done a lot of it since.Recently,we bought a twenty﹣eight ﹣foot travel trailer complete with a bathroom and a built﹣in TV set.There is a separate bedroom,a modern kitchen with a refrigerator.The trailer even has matching carpet and curtains.(40)It must be true that sooner or later,everyone finds his or her way back to nature.I recommend that you find your way in style.A.This time there was no tent.B.Things are going to be improved.C.The trip they took me on was a rough one.D.I was to learn a lot about camping since then,however.E.I must say that I have certainly come to enjoy camping.F.After the trip,my family became quite interested in camping.G.There was no shade as the trees were no more than 3 feet tall.第三部分语言知识运用(共两节,满分1.5分)第一节完形填空(共1小题;每小题1.5分,满分1.5分)阅读下面的短文,从短文后各题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中,选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑.41.(30分)While high school does not generally encourage students to explore new aspects

青花瓷发展的黄金时代是明朝永乐、宣德时期,与郑和下西洋在时间上重合,这不能不使我们思考:航海与瓷器同时达到鼎盛,仅仅是历史的偶然吗?从历史事实来看,郑和下西洋为青花瓷的迅速崛起提供了历史契机。
近三十年的航海历程推动了作为商品的青花瓷大量生产与外销,不仅促进技术创新,使青花瓷达到瓷器新工艺的顶峰,而且改变了中国瓷器发展的走向,带来了人们审美观念的更新。
这也就意味着,如果没有郑和远航带来活跃的对外贸易,青花瓷也许会像在元代一样,只是中国瓷器的诸多品种之一,而不会成为主流,更不会成为中国瓷器的代表。
由此可见,青花瓷崛起是郑和航海时代技术创新与文化交融的硕果,中外交往的繁盛在推动文明大交融的同时,也推动了生产技术与文化艺术的创新发展。
作为中外文明交融的结晶,青花瓷真正成为中国瓷器的主流,则是因为成化年间原料本土化带来了民窑青花瓷的崛起。
民窑遍地开花,进入商业化模式之后,几乎形成了青花瓷一统天下的局面。
一种海外流行的时尚由此成为中国本土的时尚,中国传统的人物、花鸟、山水,与外来的伊斯兰风格融为一体,青花瓷成为中国瓷器的代表,进而走向世界,最终万里同风,成为世界时尚。
一般来说,一个时代有一个时代的文化,而时尚兴盛则是社会快速变化的标志。

The movie is set in a small town where the only movie theater is preparing to close down.Bradford said that large modern theaters in the city made it impossible for the Plaza to compete.Headded that the theater’s location(位置)was also a reason.“This used to be the center of town,”he said.“Now the area is mostly office buildings and warehouses.”Last week some city officials suggested the city might be interested in turning the old theater into a museum and public meeting place.However,these plans were abandoned because of financial problems. Bradford sold the building and land to a local development firm,which plans to build a shopping complex on the land where the theater is located.The theater audience said good-bye as Bradford locked the doors for the last time.After75years the Plaza Theater has shown its last movie.The theater will be missed.24.In what way was yesterday’s cleanup at the Plaza special?A.It made room for new equipment.B.It signaled the closedown of the theater.C.It was done with the help of the audience.D.It marked the75th anniversary of the theater.25.Why was The Last Picture Show put on?A.It was an all-time classic.B.It was about the history of the town.C.The audience requested it.D.The theater owner found it suitable.26.What will probably happen to the building?A.It will be repaired.B.It will be turned into a museum.C.It will be knocked down.D.It will be sold to the city government.27.What can we infer about the audience?A.They are disappointed with Bradford.B.They are sad to part with the old theater.C.They are supportive of the city officials.D.They are eager to have a shopping center.CAfter years of heated debate,gray wolves were reintroduced to Yellowstone National Park.Fourteen wolves were caught in Canada and transported to the park.By last year,the Yellowstone wolf population had grown to more than170wolves.Gray wolves once were seen here and there in the Yellowstone area and much of the continental United States,but they were gradually displaced by human development.By the1920s,wolves had practically disappeared from the Yellowstone area.They went farther north into the deep forests of Canada,where there were fewer humans around.The disappearance of the wolves had many unexpected results.Deer and elk populations—major food sources(来源)forthe wolf—grew rapidly.These animals consumed large amounts of vegetation (植被),which reduced plant diversity in the park.In the absence of wolves,coyote populations also grew quickly.The coyotes killed a large percentage of the park’s red foxes,and completely drove away the park’s beavers.As early as1966,biologists asked the government to consider reintroducing wolves to Yellowstone Park.They hoped that wolves would be able to control the elk and coyote problems.Many farmers opposed the plan because they feared that wolves would kill their farm animals or pets.The government spent nearly30years coming up with a plan to reintroduce the wolvers.The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service carefully monitors and manages the wolf packs in Yellowstone.Today,the debate continues over how well the gray wolf is fitting in at Yellowstone.Elk,deer,and coyote populations are down,while beavers and red fores have made a comeback.The Yellowstone wolf project has been a valuable experiment to help biologists decide whether to reintroduce wolves to other parts of the country as well.28.What is the text mainly about?A.Wildlife research in the United States.B.Plant diversity in the Yellowstone area.C.The conflict between farmers and gray wolves.D.The reintroduction of wolves to Yellowstone Park.29.What does the underlined word“displaced”in paragraph2mean?A.Tested.B.Separated.C.Forced out.D.Tracked down.30.What did the disappearance of gray wolves bring about?A.Damage to local ecology.B.A decline in the park’s in come.C.Preservation of vegetation.D.An increase in the variety of animals.31.What is the author’s attitude towards the Yellowstone wolf project?A.Doubtful.B.Positive.C.Disapproving.D.Uncaring.DThe Intelligent Transport team at Newcastle University have turned an electric car into a mobile laboratory named“Drive LAB”in order to understand the challenges faced by older drivers and to discover where the key stress points are.Research shows that giving up driving is one of the key reasons for a fall in health and well-being among older people,leading to them becoming more isolated(隔绝)and inactive.Led by Professor Phil Blythe,the Newcastle team are developing in-vehicle technologies for older drivers which they hope could help them to continue driving into later life.These include custom-made navigation(导航)tools,night vision systems and intelligent speed adaptations.Phil Blythe explains:“For many older people,particularly those living alone or in the country, driving is important for preserving their independence,giving them the freedom to get out and about without having to rely on others.”“But we all have to accept that as we get older our reactionsslow down and this often results in people avoiding any potentially challenging driving conditions and losing confidence in their driving skills.The result is that people stop driving before they really need to.”Dr Amy Guo,the leading researcher on the older driver study,explains,“The Drive LAB is help ing us to understand what the key points and difficulties are for older drivers and how we might use technology to address these problems.“For example,most of us would expect older drivers always go slower than everyone else but surprisingly,we found that in30mph zones they struggled to keep at a constant speed and so were more likely to break the speed limit and be at risk of getting fined.We’re looking at the benefits of systems which control their speed as a way of preventing that.“We hope that our wor k will help with technological solutions(解决方案)to ensure that older drivers stay safer behind the wheel.”32.What is the purpose of the Drive LAB?A.To explore newmeans of transport.B.To design new types of cars.C.To find out older driver’s problems.D.To teach people traffic rules.33.Why is driving important for older people according to Phil Blythe?A.It keeps them independent.B.It helps them save time.C.It builds up their strength.D.It cures their mental illnesses.34.What do researchers hope to do for older drivers?A.Improve their driving skills.B.Develop driver-assist technologles.C.Provide tips on repairing their cars./doc/7d4280843.html,anize regular physical checkups.35.What is the best title for the text?A.A new Model Electric CarB.A Solution to Traffic ProblemC.Driving Service for eldersD.Keeping Older Drivers on the

Trying to help injured, displaced or sick creatures can be heartbreaking; survival is never certain. However, when it works, it is simply beautiful.I got a rescue call from a woman in Muttontown. She had found a young owl(猫头鹰) on the ground. When I arrived, I saw a 2-to 3-week-old owl. It had already zxxk been placed in a carrier for safety.I examined the chick(雏鸟) and it seemed fine. If I could locate the nest, I might have been able to put it back, but no luck. My next work was to construct a nest and anchor it in a tree.The homeowner was very helpful. A wire basket was found. I put some pine branches intothe basket to make this nest safe and comfortable. I placed the chick in the nest, and it quickly calmed down.Now all that was needed were the parents, but they were absent. I gave the homeowner a recording of the hunger screams of owl chicks. These advertise the presence of chicks to adults; they might also encourage our chick to start calling as well. I gave the owner as much information as possible and headed home to see what news the night might bring.A nervous night to be sure,but sometimes the spirits of nature smile on us all! The homeowner called to say that the parents had responded to the recordings. I drove over and saw the chick in the nest looking healthy and active. And it was accompanied in the nest by the greatest sight of all — LUNCH!The parents had done their duty and would probably continue to do so.24.What is unavoidable in the author’s rescue work according ro paragraph 1?A.Efforts made in vain.B.Getting injured in his work.C.Feeling uncertain about his future.D.Creatures forced out of their homes.25.Why was the author called to Muttontown?A.To rescue a woman.B.To take care of a woman.C.To look at a baby owl.D.To cure a young owl.26.What made the chick calm down?A.A new nest.B.Some food.C.A recording.D.Its parents.27.How would the author feel about the outcome of the event?A.It’s unexpected.B. It’s beautiful.C. It’s humorous.D. It’s discouraging.CSome of the world’s most famous musicians recently gathered in Paris and New Orleans to celebrate the first annual International Jazz Day. UNESCO( United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization) recently set April 30 as a day to raise awareness of jazz music, its significance, and its potential as a unifying(联合) voice across cultures.Despite the celebrations, though, in the U.S. the jazz audience continues to shrink and grow older, and the music has failed to connect with younger generations.It’s Jason Moran’s job to help change that. As the Kennedy Center’s artistic adviser for jazz, Moran hopes to widen the audience for jazz, make the music more accessible, and preserve its history and culture.“Jazz seems like it’s not really a part of the American appetite,” Moran tells National Public Radio’s reporter Neal Conan. “What I’m hoping to accomplish is that mu generation and younger start to reconsider and understand that jazz is not black and write anymore. It’s actually color, and it’s actually digital.”Moran says one of the problems with jazz today is that the entertainment aspect of the music has been lost. “The music can’t be presented today the way it was in 1908 or 1958. It has to continue to move, because the way the world works is not the same,” says Moran.Last year, Moran worked on a project that arranged Fats Waller’s music for a dance party, “Just to kind of put it back in the mind that Waller is dance music as much as it is concert music,” says Moran. “For me, it’s the recontextualization. In music, where does the emotion(情感) lie? Are we, as abstract as a Charlie Parker record gets us into a dialogue about our emotions and our thoughts? Sometimes we lose sight that the music has a wider context,” says Moran, “So I want to continue those dialogue. Those are the things I want to foster.”28.Why did UNESCO set April 30 as International Jazz Day?A.To remember the birth of jazz.B.To protect cultural diversity.C.To encourage people to study music.D.To recognize the value of jazz.29.What does the underlined word “that” in Paragraph 3 refer to?A.Jazz becoming more accessible.B.The production of jazz growing faster.C.Jazz being less popular with the young.D.The jazz audience becoming larger.30.What can we infer about Moran’s opinion on jazz?A.It will disappear gradually.B.It remains black and white.C.It should keep up with the times.D.It changes every 50 years.31.Which of the following can be the best title for the text?A.Exploring the Future of jazz.B.The Rise and Fall of jazz.C.The Story of a jazz Musician.D.Celebrating the Jazz Day.DA buld-it-yourself solar still(蒸馏器)is one of the best ways to obtain drinking water in areas where the liquid is not readily available. Developed by two doctors in the U.S. Department of Agriculture, it’s an excellent water collector. Unfortunately, you must carry the necessary equipment with you, since it’s all but impossible to find natural substitutes. The only componentsrequired, though, are a 5’ 5’ sheet of clear or slightly milky plastic, six feet of plastic tube, and a container— perhaps just a drinking cup — to catch the water. These pieces can be folded into a neat little pack and fastened on your belt.To construct a working still, use a sharp stick or rock to dig a hole four feet across and three feet deep. Try to make the hole in a damp area to increase the water catcher’s productivity. Place your cup in the deepest part of the hole. Then lay the tube in place so that one end rests all the way in the cup and the rest of the line runs up — and out — the side of the hole.Next, cover the hole with the plastic sheet, securing the edges of the plastic with dirt and weighting the sheet’s center down with a rock. The plastic should now form a cone(圆锥体) with 45-degree-angled sides.

AMy doorbell rings at 11 a.m.On the step,I find an elderly Chinese lady,She is small and slight.She holds a paper carrier bag in her hands.I know this lady.It is by no means her first visit.Her daughter,Nicole,bought the house next door last October. Nicole,who is currently in Shanghai,has apparently told her mother that I am having heart surgery shortly,and the result is that her mother has decided I need to be supplied with meals.I know what is inside the paper carrier bag-a stainless-steel container with a meal of rice,vegetables and either chicken,meat or shrimp.This has become an almost-daily occurrence.Communication between my benefactor(恩人)and me is somewhat handicapped by the fact that she doesn't speak English and all I can say in Mandarin is "hello".Once,she brought an iPad and pointed to the screen,which displayed a message from Nicole telling me that her mother wanted to know if the food was all right."Your mother just can't be bringing me meals like this all the time,"I protested.“I can hardl y reciprocate by cookingsomething from my native land,like roast beef or Yorkshire pudding for her,”I said."Oh,no,"Nicole said."Don't worry about that.She has to cook for the family anyway,and she wants to do it for you.You can call her Wing,which is her surname."The tenant in my basement suite is a university student who speaks Mandarin quite well,so with her help,I have found out that Wing is 68-13 years younger than I am-and that she lived through the Cultural Revolution.For my part, I was raised in wartime Britain.So here we are,two grandmothers a world away from where we were raised,neither of us able to speak the other’s language.But the doorbell keeps ringing and there is the familiar paper carrier bag,handed smilingly to me by Wing.Right now I am working on some more Mandarin words-it's the least I can do after such a display of kindness."Thank you"is,of course,the first one,which somehow seems inadequate.1.The author and Wing got to know each other .A.as next door neighborsB.when exchanging mealsC.by sharing similar experiencesD.after using an iPad to communicate2.The underlined word "reciprocate" in Paragraph 5 probably means .A.do as wellB.offer generouslyC.give in returnD.accept with pleasure3.The author's effort to learn Mandarin shows her .A.great satisfactionB.real kindnessC.heartfelt thanksD.sincere friendshipBIt’s not what you look at that matters;it's what you see.——Henry David ThoreauSlow Art Day is a global event with a simple mission: help more people discover for themselves the joy of looking at and loving art.Why slow?When people look slowly at a piece of art,they make discoveries.The most important discovery they make is that they can see and experience art without an expert.And that's an exciting discovery.It unlocks passion and creativity and helps to create more art lovers.How does it work?One day each year,people all over the world visit local museums and galleries to look at art slowly.Participants look at five works of art for 10 minutes each and then meet together over lunch to talk about their experience.That's it.Simple by design,the goal is to focus on the art.In fact,Slow Art Day works quite well this way.By the numbersOver l,200 individual Slow Art Day events have taken place since its official launch in 2010.Slow Art Day events have taken place on all seven continents.700 venues (museums,galleries,artist studios,sculpture parks,public an sites.etc.) have hosted Slow Art Day events.Participants love Slow Art DayFeedback on this simple event has been overwhelmingly positive.Here's a sample:“I loved taking the time to just 'be' with the works,particularly pieces I might otherwise walk by.It's a much better way of doing the art museum than the usual idleramble.Discussion afterwards was fun,interesting,informative and eye-opening.I look forward to doing it again."Slow Art Day 2017 is Saturday,April 8,in museums and galleries worldwide.Join us and experience art differently.4.The author quotes Thoreau's words at the beginning to .A.arouse readers' interest in artB.introduce the topic of the textC.stress the importance of lookingD.illustrate the

will take place that night.First,there will be a full moon.That's always fun,but this one will be a little more special.It's known as a “snow moon.”The name comes from the fact that the heaviest snows usually fall during February,according to the Old Farmer's Almanac.But if that's not special enough,there's also an eclipse(月食)that night.It'll be a penumbral lunar eclipse, meaning it’s a partial eclipse that leaves sections of the moon darkened by the earth's shadow.No,it won't be as spectacular as those "blood moon" eclipses,It'll be subtler.The level of darkness it reached during the eclipse may or may not be apparent;it just depends on where you are when you view it.In North America,the eclipse begins at 5:34 p.m ET and ends at 9:53 p.m.ET,according to astronomy website EarthSky,The eclipse will be at its height around 7:44 p.m.ET. .If that's still not enough,let's throw in a comet(彗星)to the night's festivities.Comet 45P (it has a much longer name,but we won't burden you with it here) is visible as it flies by Earth.The comet will get within 7.4 million miles of the planet as it makes its closest approach this weekend,according to Universe Today.Comet 45P will be the most visible a couple of hours after the eclipse,so look to the skies again around 3 a.m.ET Saturday and find the greenish-blue light with a tail.And don't forget,a total big-time solar eclipse will streak across the United States on August 21st.8.According to the text,what can be viewed on Friday night?A.A blood moon.B.A total solar eclipse.C.A partial lunar eclipse.D.A comet without a

game is the culmination(高潮)to a season that begins in the late summer of the previous calendar year.Normally,Roman numerals are used to identify each game,rather than the year in which it is held.For example,Super Bowl I was played on January 15,1967,following the 1966 regular season.The single exception to this rule is Super Bowl 50, which was played on February 7,2016,following the 2015 regular season.The next game,Super Bowl LII,scheduled for February 4,2018,will follow the 2017 regular season.The game was created as part of a merger(合并)agreementbetween the NFL and its then rival league,the American Football League (AFL).Currently,the Pittsburgh Steelers have the most Super Bowl victories,with six.The New England Patriots have the most Super Bowl appearances,with nine.The day (usually the first Sunday in February) on which the Super Bowl is played,now considered as an unofficial American national holiday,is called "Super Bowl Sunday".It is the second-largest day for U.S.food consumption,after Thanksgiving Day.In addition,the seven most-watched broadcasts in U.S. television history are Super Bowls.In 2015,Super Bowl XLIX attracted an audience of 114.4 million.Because of the high viewership,commercial airtime during the Super Bowl broadcast is the most expensive of the year,leading to companies regularly developing their most expensive advertisements for this broadcast.As a result,watching and discussing the broadcast's commercials has become a significant aspect of the event.In addition, popular singers and musicians including Michael Jackson,Madonna,Prince,Beyonce,Paul McCartney,The Rolling Stones,The Who,Whitney Houston,and Lady Gaga have performed during the event's pregame and halftime ceremonies.12.According to the text,in the
