【題目】
Who was the most talented person that ever lived? It might be Leonardo da Vinci. The Italian was a painter, sculptor (雕塑家) and inventor. This year, we celebrated his 566th birthday on April 15th.
Da Vinci is still widely considered as one of the greatest painters. His most famous painting, the Mona Lisa which still sits in the Louvre Museum (盧浮宮), is one of the greatest art works of the world.
The Mona Lisa is famous for the mysterious(神秘的) smile. What is the reason for the woman’s smile? This is a question always asked, but it remains unanswered to this day.
Some believe that the Mona Lisa is actually a portrait (肖像) of Da Vinci himself! This is because some of her expressions on the face are similar to those in one of Da Vinci’s self-portraits. Others might suggest she smiles because she has lost her teeth! We will never know for sure… It is just fun to guess!
But the new research from scientists showed that some people even think she isn’t smiling but looks unhappy. The scientists also said that if Mona Lisa doesn’t look happy to you, it might be because of your own feelings.
The researchers showed 43 people two groups of pictures. Group One all had neutral(中性的) faces. Group Two had happy and angry faces. Each time, people saw two pictures, one from Group One, the other from Group Two. Later, they described what the neutral faces were like. When people saw a neutral face after a happy face, most of them thought it was smiling. When they saw a neutral face after a sad face, most of them thought it had a sad expression. Scientists believe our brain has predictive (預測性的) power. People use their past experiences to predict what they are going to experience next.
“________” said Erika Siegel, one of the researchers. “However, if you see the Mona Lisa after you have great fun, you can see her beautiful smile.”
【1】According to the passage, Leonardo da Vinci ________.
A.was also a writer when he was aliveB.is still known as a great painter

【3】Which might be the missing sentence in the last paragraph?

B.If you see the Mona Lisa after you fail your exam, you may think she is sad.
C.The expression of the Mona Lisa is always changing.
D.People always like the Mona Lisa’s smile.

A.Mona Lisa is the only painting of Da Vinci in Louvre museum

D.if you see the Mona Lisa after having a pleasant talk with friends, you may see the smile
【5】If we put the passage into three parts, which of the following is the best?

【題目】Do you want to know how and why a fall leaf changes color? We first have to understand what leaves are and what they do.
Leaves are the world’s food factories. Plants take water from the ground through their roots and take CO2 from the air. Plants use sunlight to turn water and CO2into glucose(葡萄糖), a kind of sugar. Plants use it as food for energy and growing.
A chemical called“chlorophyll”in the leaves gives plants their green colour. As summer ends and autumn comes, the days get shorter and shorter, and trees “know” to begin getting ready for winter.
During winter, there is not enough sunlight or water. Trees rest during this time and live on the food they store during the summer. They begin to shut down their food-making factories. As the green chlorophyll disappears from the leaves, we begin to see yellow and orange leaves.
The bright reds and purples we see in leaves are made mostly in autumn. In some trees, like maples, sunlight and the cool nights of autumn turn the glucose in the leaves into a red colour. And we can enjoy the beautiful red leaves during autumn.
【1】Which should be in the box? sunlight++CO2glucose
A.airB.sugarC.waterD.wind
【2】The underlined word “chlorophyll” means __________.
A.葉綠素B.脂肪C.蛋白質D.淀粉
【3】The leaves turn yellow because they are short of(缺少) __________.

A.When autumn comes, the days get shorter and shorter.
B.During winter trees live on the food they store in summer.
C.During winter some of yellow and orange colors are still in the leaves.
D.Trees begin to stop making food in summer.
【5】This passage tells us_____________.
A.the plants can grow well only with the sunlight
B.there are all kinds of plants on the earth
C.not all the colors of the leaves are from chlorophyll

【題目】
If you see a group of people dancing and singing on the street or in the railway station, you don't need to feel surprised. They are a flash mob(快閃族). A flash mob, organized with the help of the Internet or other communications networks, is a group of people who come together suddenly in a public place, do something unusual for a period of time, such as coming together to look at the sky, shouting something at the top of their voices for 30 seconds, and then quickly disappear before the police can arrive.
Using mobile phones, the flash mob can change its place if the first one has been replaced for any reason. Bill Wasik, a senior editor, organized the first flash mob in Manhattan in May,2003 and the first successful flash mob came together on June 3,2003—after the first try was foiled at Macy's department store. Following this, about 200 people crowded into the hall of the Hyatt hotel, applauding(鼓掌)in one voice for fifteen seconds, and next the mob pretending(假裝)to be tourists on a bus trip entered a shoe shop in Soho. Wasik said that he created flash mobs as a social experiment designed to make fun of hipsters(時尚潮人).
Though flash mobs were firstly regarded as pointless, the idea has already developed for the benefit of political(政治的)and social events. Flash mobbing takes advantage of the effect of communicating information on Websites and by email, and protesters(抗議者)can similarly use it to be involved in political events.
Flash mob gatherings can sometimes surprise people. Such an activity might seem amusing and fantastic, but it also might frighten people who are not clear about what is taking place. Undoubtedly, flash mobs can serve as good political tools in any direction. They also have big economic potential(經(jīng)濟潛力), such as using flash mobs to advertise a product.
The flash mob is now becoming more and more popular. People use it to do many things.
Flash mobs give people an opportunity to come together to create a memory.
【1】The word "foiled" in Paragraph 2 probably means "__________".
A.praisedB.preventedC.confusedD.succeeded
【2】Why did Bill Wasik create the flash mob?
A.To help people make friends.B.To advertise some products.
C.To create some memories.D.To make fun of hipsters.
【3】What can we infer about the flash mob from the passage?
A.It can be made use of in many fields just for fun.
B.It usually breaks up quickly for not having enough time.
C.If the place for the activity is decided, it can't be changed.
D.It gives people the chance to do something unusual together.
【4】Which of the following might be the best title of the passage?
A.Flash Mob: the Popular Culture
B.Flash Mob: the Political Potential
C.Flash Mob: the Short-term Memory
D.Flash Mob: the Beginning of Information

【題目】 My First Marathon (馬拉松)
A month before my first marathon, one of my ankles was hurt and this meant not running for two weeks, leaving me only two weeks to train. Yet, I decided to go ahead.
I remember back to my 7th year in school. After my first PE class, the teacher told me that I was "not athletic (運動型的)". The idea that I was "not athletic" stuck with me for years. When I started running in my 30s, I realized running was a fight against myself, not about competition or whether or not I was athletic. It was all about the fight against my own body and mind. A test of wills!
The night before my marathon, I dreamed that I couldn't even find the finish line.
I woke up, being helpless and nervous but ready to prove something to myself. Shortly after crossing the start line, my shoe lace became untied. So I stopped to tie it. Not the start I wanted! I had been left behind others at the beginning.
At mile 3, I passed a sign: "GO FOR IT, RUNNERS!"
By mile 17, I became out of breath and the once-hurt-ankle hurt badly, but I still stayed the course, walking a bit and then running again.
As I came near to mile 23, I could see my wife waving a sign. She is my biggest fan. She never minded the alarm clock sounding at 4 a. m. or questioned my expenses on running.
I was one of the final runners to finish. But I finished! And I got a medal. In fact, I got the same medal as the one that the person who came in first place had. I can now call myself a "marathon winner".
【1】What happened to the writer a month before his marathon?
A.He hurt his knees.B.He got hurt in one ankle.
C.He wanted to give up.D.He went back to his school.
【2】According to the PE teacher in the 7th year in school, the writer________.
A.didn't train hardB.could finish the marathon
C.wasn't good at sportsD.would get support from many fans
【3】What does the story mainly tell us?
A.One is never too old to learn.
B.Failure is the mother of success.
C.A man can make success with the help of family.
D.A winner is the one with great effort and a strong will.
