A

Theaters of the Past

The Greek Theater

Theaters developed in many parts of Greece. Ancient Greek theaters were built in natural open air sites on conveniently shaped hills. This allowed a great mass of people to enjoy a show at a time. Due to this， actors placed emphasis （强调） on exaggerated action and speech. And colorful symbolic masks and costumes were used.

The Medieval Theater

The Medieval Theater started in churches. That is why medieval plays were about Bible stories. At first， it became a custom for priests （牧師） to act out brief scenes during Christmas and Easter. These acts attracted large crowds. Finally the church refused to allow priests to participate in any such events again， so ordinary people began these performances outside. Performances were set in the town square， with several stage settings around it.

The Elizabethan Theater

The England’s theater developed rapidly in the years following the winning of the Spanish Navy. The primary feature of Elizabethan theater was the stage. It had three parts： the fore stage for outside scenes; the inner stage for scenes inside a building; an upper stage or balcony for various purposes. The reason for this design was that there were no scene changes， or breaks during the play. Very little scenery was used， so the actors had to create a scene through their voices and dialogues. This led to a more poetic script （剧本）， and poets became the main source of script writing.

The Restoration Theater

Some of the plays told sad stories， but the majority of the plays were really funny. Many specialized machines were used to create the scene. The stage was a very clever idea—on the sides of the stage large back shutters were painted with the scene.

21. Why were the ancient Greek theaters built on hills？

A. To emphasize exaggerated performances.         B. To build a big and strong stage.

C. To have a better sound effect.                           D. To hold a large audience.

22. Where could actors’ voices and speech help create scenes？

A. In the Elizabethan Theater.                               B. In the Restoration Theater.

C. In the Medieval Theater.                                   D. In the Greek Theater.

23. What is special about the Restoration Theater？

A. Colorful masks were used.                                B. The stage was smartly designed.

C. Most of its plays were sad.                                D. Ordinary people were the performers.

As Ginni Bazlinton reached Antarctica （南極洲）， she found herself greeted by a group of little Gentoo penguins longing to say hello. These gentle， lovely gatekeepers welcomed her and kick-started what was to be a trip Ginni would never forget.

Ever since her childhood， Ginni， now， 71， has had a deep love for travel. Throughout her career as a professional dancer， she toured in the UK， but always longed to explore further. When she retired from dancing and her sons eventually flew the nest， she decided it was time to .

After taking a degree at Chichester University in Related Arts， Ginni began to travel the world， eventually getting work teaching English in Japan and Chile. And it was in Chile that she discovered she could get last-minute cheap deals on ships going to Antarctica from the islands off Tierra del Fuego， the southernmost tip of the South American mainland. “I just decided I wanted to go，” she says. “I had no idea about what I’d find there and I wasn’t nervous. I just wanted to do it. And I wanted to do it alone as I always prefer it that way.”

In March 2008， Ginni boarded a ship with 48 passengers she’d never met before， to begin the journey towards Antarctica. “From seeing the wildlife to witnessing sunrises， the whole experience was amazing. Antarctica left an impression on me that no other place has，” Ginni says. “I remember the first time I saw a humpback whale; it just rose out of the water like some prehistoric creature and I thought it was smiling at us. You could still hear the operatic sounds it was making underwater.”

The realization that this is a precious （珍稀的） land， to be respected by humans， was one of the biggest things that hit home to Ginni.

24.What does the underlined part “take the plunge” in Paragraph 2 mean？

A. Try challenging things.                                      B. Take a degree.

C. Bring back lost memories.                                 D. Stick to a promise.

25. What made Ginni decide on the trip to Antarctica？

A. Lovely penguins.       B. Beautiful scenery.      C. A cheap sailing.          D. A friend’s invitation.

26. What does Ginni think about Antarctica after her journey？

A. It could be a home for her.                                B. It should be easily reached.

C. It should be well protected.                               D. It needs to be fully introduced.

27. What is the text mainly about？

A. A childhood dream.                                          B. An unforgettable experience.

C. Sailing around the world.                                  D. Meeting animals in Antarctica.

Asked to picture an electric guitar， most people will immediately bring to mind Leo Fender’s most famous model—the Stratocaster. Upon its introduction in 1954， the Stratocaster not only redefined （重新定义） the sound of American music， but also immediately became an astonishing piece of design. Many musicians found Fender’s first model， the Telecaster， clumsy， so he simply improved the instrument， making its shape fit a player’s body. For Fender， form followed function as naturally as morning followed night.

You can learn more about electric guitars from The Birth of Loud. Ian S. Port’s book is a vivid description of the careers of Fender and his main competitor， Les Paul， the star guitarist. The book explores the two men’s rise with extraordinary skills and authority.

“Although they would be forever linked in their fame， they were in many ways opposites. Fender was silent and could often be found working in his laboratory until late at night， while Paul was a showman， a musical and technical talent who was one of the biggest stars before the age of rock’n’roll pop. What they shared was that they both dared to try out crazy ideas. They were untrained men who could build or fix almost anything，” Port observes.

This book reflects Port’s ability to marry an anecdotal writing style to a musician’s ear. Describing sound is extraordinarily difficult. I myself have played electric guitars designed by Fender and Paul for many years， and Port’s descriptions of their different sounds are the most accurate （準确的） I have ever read. Port’s writing skills are shown clearly when he describes Hendrix’s famous performance of “The Star-Spangled Banner” at Woodstock in 1969， which pushed rock guitar playing to a height it may never again reach. Port wisely ends his book here. The story of these instruments is the story of America from 1945 to the 1960s： loud， over-confident， aggressively new.

28. What is Stratocaster famous for？

A. Its main functions.                                             B. Its wide application.

C. Its professional designer.                                   D. Its unique sound and form.

29. What similarity did Fender and Paul share？

A. Having a bright personality.                              B. Being well-known as a pop star.

C. Being ready to put ideas into practice.              D. Focusing on rock’n’roll all their life.

30. Which is a clear feature of the book according to the author？

A. It connects music with history.                         B. It records the birth of rock music.

C. It shows professional knowledge.                     D. It describes events rather than persons.

31. What is the purpose of the text？

A. To recommend a good book.                             B. To spread electric guitars.

C. To popularize rock’n’roll.                                  D. To honor two musicians.

D

Race walking shares many fitness benefits with running， research shows， while most likely contributing to fewer injuries （損伤）. It does， however， have its own problem.

Race walkers are conditioned athletes. The longest track and field event at the Summer Olympics is the 50-kilometer race walk， which is about five miles longer than the Marathon. But the sports rules require that a race walker’s knees stay straight through most of the leg swing and one foot remain in contact with the ground at all times. “It’s this strange form that makes race walking such an attractive activity， however，” says Jaclyn Norberg， an assistant professor of exercise science at Salem State University in Salem， Massachusetts.

“Like running， race walking is physically demanding，” she says. According to most calculation， race walkers moving at pace of six miles per hour would burn about 800 calories （卡路里） per hour， which is nearly twice as many as they would burn walking， although fewer than running， which would probably burn about 1，000 or more calories per hour.

“However， race walking does not pound the body as much as running does，” Dr Norberg says. According to her research， runners hit the ground with as much as four times their body weight per step， while race walkers， who do not leave the ground， create only about 1.4 times their body weight with each step.

“As a result，” she says， “some of the injuries associated with running， such as runner’s knee， are uncommon among race walkers.” But the sport’s strange form does place considerable stress on the ankles and hips， so people with a history of such injuries might want to be careful for the sport. “In fact， anyone wishing to try race walking should probably first go to a coach or an experienced racer to learn proper technique，” she says. “It takes some practice.”

32. Why are race walkers said to be conditioned athletes？

A. They must run longer distances.                        B. They have to follow special rules.

C. They are qualified for the Marathon.                 D. They are good at swinging their legs.

33. What advantage does race walking have over running？

A. It’s less challenging physically.                         B. It’s more popular at the Olympics.

C. It’s more useful in body building.                     D. It’s less likely to cause knee injuries.

34. What is Dr Norberg’s suggestion for someone trying race walking？

A. Hiring an experienced coach.                            B. Having a medical check-up.

C. Getting experts’ opinions.                                 D. Doing regular exercises.

35. What can be the best title for the text？

A. The Unforgettable Marathon                             B. The Wonderful Race

C. Try Race Walking                                              D. Keep Running
