"Museum of the World" Travel Plan

Here's the travel plan for some of the more unusual museums on our "Museum of the

World" tour. I'll send you the full itinerary (行程) next week. The Museum of Bad Art (MOBA) (Boston USA) shows what it describes as "art too bad to be ignored". The museum hopes to bring the worst of art to the widest possible audience. As part of the visit, we'll be shown some truly awful portraits, landscapes and sculptures.

The Devil's Rope Museum (in Mclean, Texas) and The Kansas Barbed Wire Museum (in Lacrosse, Kansas) both claim to have the best barbed (有刺的) wire collections, telling the story of the wire's role in the development of America. We'll be visiting both of these.

The Washington Banana Museum (Auburn, Washington, USA) contains 4,000 objects related to the history of what the museum describes as "the world's most perfect fruit." During a guided tour around the museum, we'll learn all sorts of interesting things, such as the fact that bananas were introduced to the USA in 1878 in the same exhibition as Alexander Graham Bell's telephone, and that banana is now the US's number-one selling fruit.

The Hair Museum (Avanos, Turkey) is located in a cave in Cappadocia, in Central Anatolia. It contains 16,000 samples of people's hair. You'll be offered a chance to add your own hair to the collection. Later in the year, the museum manager selects 10 donors to attend a pottery workshop.

5．阅读理解

Jane Austen is loved mainly as a charming guide to fashionable life in the Regency period (英国摄政时期). She is admired for describing a world of elegant houses, dances, servants and fashionable young men driving barouches (四轮四座大马车). But her own vision of her task was completely different. She was an ambitious and strict moralist. She was highly conscious of human failings and she had a deep desire to make people nicer: less selfish, more reasonable and more sensitive to the needs of others.

In Pride and Prejudice, Mr. Darcy and Elizabeth Bonnet start off heartily disliking each other and then, gradually realize they are in love. They make one of the great romantic couples. He is handsome, rich and well connected; she is pretty, smart and lively. But why actually are they right for one another?

Jane Austen is very clear. It's for a reason we tend not to think of very much today: It is because each can educate and improve the other. When Mr. Darcy arrives in the neighborhood, he feels "superior" to everyone else, because he has more money and higher status. At a key moment, Elizabeth condemns his arrogance (自大) and pride to his face. It sounds offensive in the extreme, but later he admits that this was just what he needed.

Mostly, we tend to think of love as liking someone for who they already are, and of total acceptance. But the person who is right for us, Austen is saying, is not simply someone who makes us feel relaxed or comfortable; they got to be able to help us overcome our failings and become more mature, more honest and kinder—and we need to do something similar for them.（1）What do we know about Jane Austen from paragraph 1?

A. She lived a fashionable life.

B. She wrote about the life of the rich.

C. She knew exactly human virtues.

D. She was nicer to less selfish people.

（2）What can we learn about Mr. Darcy from the text?

A. He dislikes Elizabeth from the beginning to the end.

B. He is handsome, rich and rather modest.

C. He is kind to everyone in the neighborhood.

D. He needs Elizabeth to point out his shortcomings.

（3）Which person is right for you according to Jane Austen?

A. A person that you like for who he or she is.

B. A person with whom you feel really relaxed.

C. A person making you become a better man or woman.

D. A person who does something similar to you.

（4）What message does the book Pride and Prejudice convey?

A. Improve yourself with your lover's help.

B. Accept the people you love totally.

C. Earn much money to make people love you.

D. Find your true love with pride and prejudice.

【答案】（1）B

（2）D

（3）C

（4）A

（2）考查细节理解。根据倒数第二段中的”At a key moment, Elizabeth condemns his arrogance and pride to his face. It sounds offensive in the extreme, but later he admits that this was just what he needed.“在关键时刻，伊丽莎白当面谴责了他的傲慢和骄傲。这听起来很无礼，但后来他承认这正是他所需要的。可知达西先生需要伊丽莎白指出他的缺点。故选D。

（3）考查细节理解。根据最后一段中的”But the person who is right for us, Austen is saying, is not simply someone who makes us feel relaxed or comfortable; they got to be able to help us overcome our failings and become more mature, more honest and kinder—and we need to do something similar for them.“但奥斯汀说，适合我们的人，不仅仅是让我们感到放松或舒适的人;他们必须能够帮助我们克服失败，变得更成熟、更诚实、更善良——我们需要为他们做一些类似的事情。可知简·奥斯丁认为一个让你成为更好的男人或女人的人最适合你。故选C。

（4）考查推理判断。根据第三段中的”It's for a reason we tend not t o think of very much today: It is because each can educate and improve the other.“这是一个我们今天很少想到的原因:因为每个人都可以教育且帮助对方提高。可知《傲慢与偏见》这本书传达了在爱人的帮助下提高自己的信息。故选A。

7．阅读理解

You are a member in a full-time school called "life". Each day here you will have the opportunity to learn lessons. You may like the lessons or hate them, but you have designed them as part of your curriculum.

Why are you here? What is your purpose? Humans have sought to discover the meaning of life for a very long time. What we and our ancestors have to overlook is that there is no one answer. The meaning of life is different for every individual.

Each person has his own purpose and distinct path, unique and separate from anyone else's. As you are traveling your life path, you will be presented with numerous lessons you will need to learn in order to achieve that purpose. The lessons you are presented with are specific to you; learning these lessons is the key to discovering and achieving the meaning of your own life.

As you are traveling through your lifetime, you may meet challenging lessons that others don't have to face, while others spend years struggling with challenges that you don't need to deal with. You may never know why you are blessed with a wonderful marriage, while your friends suffer painful divorces, just as you cannot be sure why you struggle financially while your peers enjoy abundance. The only thing you can count on is that you will be presented with all the lessons that you specifically need to learn.

The challenge, therefore, is to arrange yourself with your own unique path by learning individual lessons. This is one of the most difficult challenges you will face in your lifetime, as

sometimes your path will be different from others. But don't compare your path with that of people around you and focus on the differences between their lessons and yours. You need to remember that you will only face lessons that you can learn and are specific to your own growth. Our sense of fairness is the expectation of equality. Life is not, in fact, fair, and you may indeed have a more difficult life path than others around you, deserved or not. Everyone's circumstances are unique, and everyone needs to handle his or her own circumstances differently.

（1）According to the passage, how can the meaning of your life be realized?

A. Gathering different opinions from others

B. Taking the distinct path from others.

C. Learning the lessons presented to you.

D. Doing the different things from others.

（2）From the passage we can conclude .

A. everyone has his own track to follow

B. unexpected things usually happen to the peers

C. a painful divorce must lie in financial problems

D. a wealthy man must have a wonderful marriage

（3）In your lifetime, the lessons you are faced with .

A. are beyond your power

B. keep you from growth

C. limit your development

D. help you with your success

（4）Which of the following is TRUE?

A. All things should be equal and justice to everybody.

B. You should learn to deal with specific problems differently from others.

C. One has to fix his mind on unfairness of circumstances.

D. You can complain life is unfair whenever possible.

（5）Life is called a full–time school, because .

A. it is full of all lessons to learn

B. you have plenty of time to learn lessons

C. you meet with specific lessons every day

D. you can learn many things helpful to you

【答案】（1）C

（2）A

（3）D

（4）B

（5）C

【解析】【分析】短文大意：每个人的生活都不一样，所面临的人生难题也不一样。只有当我们学会了这些人生课题，我们才可以理解生活的意义，取得成功。

（1）细节理解题。根据第三段最后一句"The lessons you are presented with are specific to you; learning these lessons is the key to discovering and achieving the meaning of your own life. "可知我们想要实现自己生活的意义，就要学会呈现在你面前的种种课题。故C项正确。（2）细节理解题。根据第三段第一句"Each person has his own purpose and distinct path, unique and separate from anyone else's. "可知每个人都有自己的生活目的，都有不同于他人的人生道路。故A项正确。

（3）推理判断题。根据第四段最后一句"The only thing you can count on is that you will be presented with all the lessons that you specifically need to learn. "可知当我们学会了所有这些

教训，我们就能够理解生活的意义，我们就会取得成功，故D项正确。

（4）细节理解题。根据第五段最后一句"You need to remember that you will only face lessons that you can learn and are specific to your own growth. "可知我们每个人所面临的人生道路上的教训都是不一样的，我们必须要学会处理这些与别人不一样的问题。故B项正确。

（5）推理判断题。根据第三段第一句"Each person has his own purpose and distinct path, unique and separate from anyone else's. "可知每个人都有自己的生活目的，都有不同于他人的人生道路。在生活这所学校里，我们要学会处理这些不同的问题。故C项正确。

Everyone at Pacsafe is always eager to get out in the world and enjoy new cultures, food, and experiences. With that in mind we asked a few of our top travel bugs for their best travel destination recommendations for 2019. They also included their favorite Pacsafe bag to take on the trip. Enjoy and hopefully get some ideas for your own globe - trotting adventure.

Sri Lanka - Alison Hanko, Global Marketing Director

I'm going to Sri Lanka this summer holiday and can't wait. It's close to Hong Kong where I live and I've always wanted to go. The food is supposed to be amazing. It seems really relaxing and I really want to do the Kandy to Badulla train ride, which looks just stunning. We've booked a good mix of beaches, some time in a safari tent to hopefully see elephants in the wild.

For my bag, I'll most likely take the Quiksilver 40L Pack because it has the built-in wet pack for my bikinis. It's also a great size for a week-long trip in a warm climate.

Japan - Ben Barras, Creative Director

Japan is definitely my best travel destination recommendation. The culture, the streets, the architecture, the inspiration you get from all of that is amazing. The food is also fascinating. It's where I'm most planning to go. Tokyo obviously, but also visiting the mountains. You can go snowboarding, which I haven't done for years.

I have a Vibe 25L Backpack which you can pack a lot in. The thing I like most about it is that it's compact, but still fits plenty in. I'll pair that up with a larger travel bag for the rest of my things and use the backpack to get around day to day.

Berlin - Phil Hayes, Executive VP of Global Design

For me, it's definitely Berlin. I'm particularly excited about the fashion, which I hear is pretty full on. Also the art galleries and history. Food, nightlife. Everything I've heard about Berlin is pretty cool, so I'm going to suck as much as I can out of it. World's Global Style Network had the Berlin shopping list that came out recently, so I'm going to follow that through as well.

Bag wise, it will be the Quiksilver X Collab Bag. It's the 25L Anti-theft Backpack. It's normally my go-to bag for city trips because it's super easy to lock on the plane and in bars, and it's just the right amount of space.

（1）Which of the Pacsafe bag is a good choice for beach travel?

A. The Quiksilver 40L Pack.

B. The Vibe 25L Backpack.

C. The Quiksilver X Collab Bag.

D. 25L Anti-theft Backpack.

（2）If you are interested in fashion, which destination should you choose?

A. Sri Lanka.

B. Japan.

C. Hong Kong.

D. Berlin.

（3）What can you enjoy in all the three places mentioned?

A. Beautiful beaches.

B. Amazing food.

C. Fascinating art.

D. Cool snowboarding.（4）The main purpose of the passage is to .

A. share personal travelling experiences

B. offer practical tips on taking adventure

9．阅读理解

How was your day today? If it was just sort of OK, with nothing much happening, then Scott Shaffer wants to hear from you. Mr Shaffer is the editor of the Journal of Mundane Behaviour. "We can learn a lot about the way that society works by examining normal patterns of behavior," he says. "All the ordinary decisions we make and ordinary things we do are society in action." The idea that social scientists should "study the unmarked", in Mr Shaffer's words, has also

spread to historians. Traditionally, most history has been written as the story of greatness. It is all about great ideas, great people and great economic and social forces changing the way that millions of people live for ever. Albert Einstein's theory of relativity changed the way that we look at the universe. But has he been of more benefit to humanity than the unknown person who invented the first really comfortable shoe? Try thinking great thoughts when your feet hurt.

In recent years, books of micro-history have been a great success with the public. Most micro historians like to relate their subject to wider developments in society. According to historian Catherine Gallagher, the potato was once a matter of great argument. Supporters pointed out that it could grow cheaply and easily and help feed the poor. Opponents said that this would lead to the poor becoming more powerful, since they did not have to spend every hour working to feed themselves. It seems that European socialism started with an argument about vegetables. British historian Colin Jones wants us to look at pictures painted hundreds of years ago. He wants us to notice the fact that nobody smiles in these pictures. Compare that with today, when everyone smiles for the camera and refusing to smile is seen as an unfriendly act. It is all because of dentistry, he says. Once people were able to look after their teeth, they began to smile and the world became a happier place.

Whether stories like this are true or not, they put ordinary people at the center of history. Most of us are not going to change the world in a big way. But we might be able to do something that makes life a bit easier for other people. And maybe one day a historian will come along and write the story. It is something to get excited about, though perhaps not very excited.

（1）Why does the author tell you to try thinking great thoughts when your feet hurt? A. To show the ordinary is necessary. B. To show history is created by the unknown.

C. To show great thoughts are unnecessary.

D. To show greatness comes from the ordinary.（2）What was the most important thing about the argument about the potato?

A. It helped the poor to feed themselves.

B. It helped to spend less money on food.

C. It brought about a struggle against the rich.

D. It led to great changes in society.

（3）Why didn't people smile in pictures painted hundreds of years ago?

A. They lived a hard life.

B. Their teeth looked terrible.

C. They were not friendly.

D. They preferred to look serious.

（4）What is mainly discussed in the text?

A. The ways to make life easier.

D. Unknown people who invented small things.

【答案】（1）A

In a win for literary fiction amid declining sales, Sally Rooney's novel Normal People has been named Waterstones book of the year in 2018.

Rooney's second novel, which follows two young people falling in love in Ireland, has sold 41, 000 copies in hardback in the UK since it was released in August-five times the hardback sales of her 2017 debut, Conversations With Friends. At 27, Rooney is now the youngest winner of the award, which is given by the UK's biggest bookshop chain, Waterstones.

Normal People received almost universal applause upon its release. Longlisted for the Man Booker prize, the book won novel of the year at the An Post Irish book awards in November of 2018 and has also been shortlisted for the Costa novel of the year, announced in January of 2019. The reader response to Normal People had been astonishing. As well as the universal praise, it has been a huge word- of-mouth (口头的) hit. There're customers returning to buy multiple copies as gifts. Normal People strengthened Sally Rooney's reputation as the voice of her generation and one of the most exciting novelists around today. Its success is a testament to the health of literary fiction and indicates that there is still significant appetite for excellent storytelling.

The award, established in 2012, tends to go to books that are already bestsellers near Christmas. It has previously been won by the late American author John Williams's Stoner, the cookbook Polpo by Russell Norman, and last year's choice, Philip Pullman's La Belle Sauvage. James Daunt, Waterstones' managing director, said Rooney's win was a sign of the healthy state of literary fiction, which has seen sales decrease over the last decade. "We are delighted to name it our book of the year," he said.

（1）What do we know about the current situation of literary fiction?

A. It sells well in Waterstones.
