AWith over 2.4 million visitors every year, Cinque Terre is one of the most-visited regions in Italy. Cinque Terre is truly special. The five candy-colored fishing villages of Riomaggiore, Manarola, Comiglia, Vemazza, and Monterosso al Mare are built into cliffs over the clean and brightly-shining Ligurian Sea. Whether you're visiting the region for a few days or a few weeks, these are the experiences you should add to your trip pleasure.★Take a s cenic hike.It's easy to visit each of the attractive villages on foot. The most popular hike is the coastal path Sentiero Azzuro. It links all five villages and offers extremely beautiful scenery of the sea, architecture and vineyards(葡萄园). It takes about six hours to go across, with short breaks, but most people are going to stop in the villages for food and swimming.★Eat seafood in a cone(锥形).Dessert lovers might think that Italian ice-cream is the best thing to be served in a cone but make room for seafood cones as well. Thanks to its coastal location, Cinque Terre is full of seafood restaurants.★Get on a boat.If the weather cooperates, take the time to get out on the water. The villages look very beautiful from a boat. The cheapest and easiest way is to jump on the public ferry from one of the villages to the next, but these boats are often crowded. It's far more relaxing to take a private cruise, which departs from the docks in Riomaggiore, Manarola, Vemazza, and Monterosso al Mare.★Take the train.Cinque Terre's train system is one of the most scenic in Europe. The high-speed train runs through each of the five villages every 20 minutes or so. And the whole line is directly on the coast, offering lovely views of the Ligurian Sea and rocky cliffs.21. What is special about the five candy-colored fishing villages?A. Their special location.B. Their long history.C. Their delicious foods.D. Their friendly villagers.22. What is the favorite food for the hikers in the five villages?A. Italian noodlesB. Italian ice-cream.C. Italian wines.D. Seafood cones.23. What is the best way to enjoy the beautiful scenery and delicious food?A. Taking a private ferry to the villages.B. Walking with short breaks on the coast.C. Taking a scenic hike along the coastal path.D. Taking the train running through the villages.BI.M. Pei, the Chinese-American, who was regarded as one of the last great modernist architects, has died at the age of 102.Although he worked mostly in the United States, Pei will always be remembered for a European project: His redevelopment of the Louvre Museum in Paris in the 1980s. He gave us the glass and metal pyramid in the main courtyard, along with three smaller pyramids and a vast subterranean (地下的) addition to the museum entrance.Pei was the first foreign architect to work on the Louvre in its long history, and initially his designs were fiercely opposed. But in the end,the French —and everyone else —were won over. Winning the fifth Pritzker Architecture Prize in 1983, he was th ought as giving the 20th century “some of its most beautiful inside spaces and outside forms … His talent and skill in the use of materials approach the level of poetry.”After studying architecture at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology and Harvard, Pei set up his own architectural practice in New York in 1955.Designing the John F. Kennedy Presidential Library & Museum in 1964 established him as a name. His East Building of the National Gallery of Art in Washington in 1978 changed people’s ideas of a museum. The site was an odd trapezoid (梯形) shape. Pei’s solution was to cut it in two. The resulting building was dramatic, light and elegant — one of the first crowd-pleasing cathedrals of modern art.Though known as a modernist, and notable for his forms based on arrangements of simple geometric (几何的) shapes, he once urged Chinese architects to look more to their architectural tradition rather than designing in a western style.In person, I.M. Pei was good-humored, charming and unusually modest. His working process was evolutionary, but innovation (创新) was never an intended goal.“Stylistic originality is not my purpose,” he said. “I want to find the originality in the time, the place and the problem.”24. What can we learn about the result of redevelopment of the Louvre Museum?A. It was criticized by the French.B. It was a success.C. It made the Louvre Museum looks strange.D. It changed the function of the Louvre Museum.25. What can we learn from the underlined sentence in paragraph 3?A. He is a master in applying materials.B. He is skilled in writing poems.C. He often combines poetry and construction.D. He gets inspiration from poetry in designing.26. What’s the correct order of the following events?a. Design the John F. Kennedy Presidential Library & Museum.b. Study architecture at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology and Harvard.c. Design the National Gallery of Art.d Win the fifth Pritzker Architecture Prize.A. abcdB. bacdC. bcadD. dacd27. What can we learn about I.M. Pei?A. Innovation was his first goal in design.B. He was talented and serious.C. He preferred western style to the east.D. He liked simple geometric shapes.CScientists in Western Australia claim to have made a new discovery—they have found gold in the leaves and twigs of trees. The researchers believe that the trees suck up the gold from deep underground, over 30 metres down. The discovery has been described as the first of its kind in the world. Australian gold exploration companies are pleased because it will make finding gold cheaper. Rather than drilling deep holes to find gold, they have more ways to examine tree leaves and branches. There is only a tiny amount of gold in the leaves. It would take 500 trees to make one gold ring.The gold is found using a special X-ray machine owned by an Australian government agency. A pure X-ray and a powerful microscope scan the leaves and branches.The claim that this is the first time that gold particles(微粒) have been found in living material might not be true, though. Ancient Chinese wisdom understood the connection between plants and the precious stones and minerals underneath them. They used plant life to find minerals and that was thousands of years ago. In the Zhou Dynasty, it was written in a book that a certain plant grew only near deposits of gold. Over the next 2,000 years, Chinese people wrote about different plants and how they grew, showed where minerals and precious stones such as jade, copper, lead, silver and gold were.Even more importantly, in the 1,000s, Su Song described how copper, gold, silver, lead and tin were observed and taken from certain plants. These were amazing scientific discoveries. Meanwhile, this knowledge was unknown in the rest of the world until about 1,600. This was when a British man realised that oak trees grew larger and greener where there was alum(明矾) in the ground. Maybe ancient Chinese has more knowledge to teach modern scientists.28. What can we know from Paragraph 1?A. 500 dead trees can make one gold ring.B. The trees can absorb the gold from deep underground.C. Scientist have found gold 30 meters below underground.D. The companies find it hard to find gold.29. How do scientists find gold in the leaves?A. By observing the leaves carefully.B. By drilling deep holes.C. By using a special X-ray.D. By referring to ancient books.30. Who first discovered that there was connection between plants and minerals?A. Ancient Chinese people.B. Su Song.C. Australian scientistsD. A British man.31. What is the purpose of the last paragraph?A. To introduce two great scientists in ancient times.B. To provide more evidence to support the writer’s opinion.C. To show how ancient people got gold from certain plants.D. To prove that ancient Chinese has more knowledge than modern scientists.DThe Japanese have always been at the forefront at deploying (利用) robots to perform jobs that are traditionally done by humans. Over the past year, humanoid robots have been seen helping customers at the Mitsubishi Bank and even filling in for human science communicators at museums. Therefore, it is not surprising to hear that the country has the worlds first hotel that is staffed almost entirely by the Androids!The aptly (巧妙地) named Henn-na (“strange” in Japanese) Hotel whic h opened its doors on July 17 is located at Nagasaki’s Huis Ten Bosch theme park. It is the idea of Hideo Sawada, a Japanese businessman who is fascinated by the possibility of replacing humans with robots. His aim is to have this futuristic hotel be run mainly by the intelligent humanoids.Guests checking-in are welcomed by a family friendly English-speaking robot wearing a bow tie and bell-hop (侍者) hat. Though experienced at his job, he does request guests not to ask him “a difficult question” since he is after all, “just a robot!” Those seeking a more “regular”experience, can approach the human-like Japanese-speaking robot.When ready, visitors can request the robot “porters” to help carry belongings to their room. Those that need to stow away valuables can hand them to a helpful robot who will place them inside an individual safe box in exchange for a small fee. A one-foot-high concierge (管理人) is available to provide information about the hotel’s amenities (便利设施), nearby attractions, and even order a taxi if needed.So how much does it cost to live in this crazy cool hotel? It depends on when you decide to go. During the low season, guests can get away with paying as little $60 a night for a basic room. However, during the peak season when rates, are determined by an online auction, the price can get as high as $153.32. What is Hideo Sawada interested in?A. Making different kinds of robots.B. Taking the place of humans with robots.C. Setting up more hotels run by robots.D. Making robots more intelligent.33. From the third paragraph we can know that ________.A. the Japanese-speaking robot welcomes the guests.B. the human like robot can speak Japanese and English.C. the human-like robot is better skilled at its job than the other robots.D. the English-speaking robot can answer simple questions.34. The underlined phrase “stow away” most probably means “________”.A. purchaseB. changeC. storeD. replace35. What could be the best title for the passage?A. World’s first robot-staffed hotel is open for business.B. Japanese tops the first in making robots.C. Robots can replace humans in Japanese hotels.D. The aptly named Henn-na Hotel at a theme park.第二节 (共5小题；每小题2分，满分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。
