Back to the sky. I took off running, my sneakers splashing rainwater from puddles, the hand clutching the kite end of the string held high above my head. It had been so long, so many years since Id done this, and I wondered if Id make a spectacle of myself. I let the spool roll in my left hand as I ran, felt the string cut my right hand again as it fed through. The kite was lifting behind my shoulder now, lifting, wheeling, and I ran harder. The spool spun faster and the glass string tore another gash in my right palm. I hadnt flown a kite in a quarter of a century, but suddenly I was twelve again and all the old instincts came rushing back. I felt a presence next to me and looked down. It was Sohrab. Hands dug deep in the pockets of his raincoat. He had followed me.My heart quickened as I spun the spool to gather the loose string. Then I saw we had company. A green kite was closing in. His gaze flitted between our kite and the green one. His face was a little flushed, his eyes suddenly alert. Awake. Alive. I wondered when I had forgotten that, despite everything, he was still just a child.The green kite drew closer yet, now rising a little above us, unaware of the trap Id set for it. Watch, Sohrab. Im going to show you one of your fathers favorite tricks, the old lift-and-dive.The park shimmered with snow so fresh, so dazzling white, it burned my eyes. It sprinkled soundlessly from the branches of white-clad trees. The green kite hovered directly above us now. Hes going for it. Anytime now,?I said, my eyes flicking from Sohrab to our kite.The green kite hesitated. Held position. Then shot down. Here he comes!?I said. I did it perfectly. After all these years. The old lift-and-dive trap. Id already slipped him Hassans trick. I pulled hard and our kite plummeted. I could almost feel our string sawing his. Almost heard the snap. Behind us, people cheered. Whistles and applause broke out. I was panting. The last time I had felt a rush like this was that day in the winter of 1975, just after I had cut the last kite, when I spotted Baba on our rooftop, clapping, beaming. I looked down at Sohrab. One corner of his mouth had curled up just so. A smile. Lopsided. Hardly there. But there. Do you want me to run that kite for you? His Adams apple rose and fell as he swallowed. The wind lifted his hair. I thought I saw him nod. For you, a thousand times over,?I heard myself say. Then I turned and ran. It was only a smile, nothing more. It didnt make everything all right. It didnt make anything all right. Only a smile. A tiny thing. A leaf in the woods, shaking in the wake of a startled birds flight. But Ill take it. With open arms. Because when spring comes, it melts the snow one flake at a time, and maybe I just witnessed the first flake melting. I ran. A grown man running with a swarm of screaming children. But I didnt care. I ran with the wind blowing in my face, and a smile as wide as the Valley of Panjsher on my lips. I ran. 21. What can we infer from Para2 ? A.The protagonist longed for freedom of getting rid of religious barriers B.The protagonist couldnt bear the physical or mental pain C.What struck the protagonist was the attempts to pursue perfect D.What was really cherished may be more than just flying kites 22.Which of the following is true about Sohrab? A.His personalities and being reminded the protagonist of something emotional B.He approved to trick the green kite off after inner conflicts C.His father used to fly kites with the company the protagonists Papa D.He rejected the protagonists request due to inferiority 23.What mainly accounted for the protagonists changing feelings of the environment? A.Sohrabs innocent smile of appreciation and respect B.Peoples sincere praises and cheers C.The re-finding process of his previous childhood D.The promise of thousands of times made by Hassan 24.What can you learn from the part where the protagonist flew kites for Sohrab? A.Putting off prejudices always serves as the healing medicine of heart B.Collision between hearts can eliminate misunderstandings C.The poem of love and salvation is as warm as the sunshine D.Compassion from the harmonious world helps melt the snow B Allan T. Demaree, a retired executive editor of Fortune magazine, gladly makes donations to Princeton University, his alma mater. His son, who also went to Princeton, points to its endowment (捐赠基金) of $15.8 billion, and will not give it a penny. “Why give money to an institution that can seemingly live off its interest when other very deserving entities need money to function tomorrow?” asked the son, Heath Demaree, a professor at Case Western Reserve University who instead donates to Virginia Tech, where he was a graduate student. His question captures how the wealth collected by elite universities like Princeton through soaring endowments over the past decade has widened the divide between a small group of dramaticly wealthy universities and all others. The result is that Americas already stratified (形成阶层的) system of higher education is becoming ever more so, and the gap is creating all sorts of tensions as the less wealthy colleges try to compete. Even state universities are going into fund-raising overdrive and trying to increase endowments to catch up. The wealthiest colleges can tap their endowments to give considerable financial aid to families earning $180,000 or more. They can tempt star professors with high salaries and hard-to-get apartments. They are starting advanced new research laboratories, expanding their campuses and putting up architecturally notable buildings. Higher education has always been stratified, but the differences were never as large as today. The last decade brought a sea change, as skilled money managers hired by the universities moved their portfolios (投资组合) into high-performing investments, and endowments skyrocketed. Until recently, top public research universities could rely on enough public subsidy (补贴) to hold their own, when the taxpayer money was combined with tuition and fund-raising. But that world is changing. The University of California, Berkeley has a $3 billion endowment, but it is stretched across 34,000 students. And with state budget cuts approaching, Robert Birgeneau, its president, fears he will no longer be able to attract the best professors and students. “It will cost less for a student from a family with an income of $180,000 to go to Harvard than for a student with a family income of $90,000 to go to Berkeley,” he said, taking into account Harvards recent decision to give more financial aid to families earning up to $180,000 annually. 25. What do we learn about Heath Demaree? A. He donated to Virginia Tech. B. He donated as much as his father. C. He donated to Princeton University. D. He donated to Case Western Reserve University. 26. What is said about state universities? A. They are expanding their campuses. B. They are raising funds to increase endowments. C. They manage to attract elite professors and students. D. They are starting sophisticated new research laboratories. 27. What can we learn about top public research universities at present? A. They can not hold their own just with state support. B. The taxpayer money is combined with tuition and fund-raising. C. Despite possible state budget cut, they do not need more endowment. D. They can depend on enough public subsidy to lure professors and students. C As a historian whos always searching for the text or the image that makes us re-evaluate the past, Ive become preoccupied with looking for photographs that show our Victorian ancestors smiling (what better way to shatter the image of 19th-century prudery?). Ive found quite a few, and - since I started posting them on Twitter they have been causing quite a stir. People have been surprised to see evidence that Victorians had fun and could, and did, laugh. They are noting that the Victorians suddenly seem to become more human as the hundred-or-so years that separate us fade away through our common experience of laughter. Of course, I need to concede that my collection of Smiling Victorians makes up only a tiny percentage of the vast catalogue of photographic portraiture created between 1840 and 1900, the majority of which show sitters posing miserably and stiffly in front of painted backdrops, or staring absently into the middle distance. How do we explain this trend? During the 1840s and 1850s, in the early days of photography, exposure times were notoriously long: the daguerreotype photographic method (producing an image on a silvered copper plate) could take several minutes to complete,resulting in blurred images as sitters shifted position or adjusted their limbs. The thought of holding a fixed grin as the camera performed its magical duties was too much to contemplate, and so a non-committal blank stare became the norm. But exposure times were much quicker by the 1 880s, and the introduction of the Box Brownie and other portable cameras meant that, though slow by todays digital standards, the exposure was almost instantaneous. Spontaneous smiles were relatively easy to capture by the 1890s, so we must look elsewhere for an explanation of why Victorians still hesitated to smile. One explanation might be the loss of dignity displayed through a cheesy grin. “Nature gave us lips to conceal our teeth.” ran one popular Victorian maxim, alluding to the fact that before the birth of proper dentistry mouths were often in a shocking state of hygiene. A flashing set of healthy and clean, regular “pearly whites” was a rare sight in Victorian society, the preserve of the super- rich (and even then, dental hygiene was not guaranteed). A toothy grin (especially when there were gaps or blackened gnashers) lacked class: drunks, tramps and music hall performers might gurn and grin with a smile as wide as Lewis Carrolls gum-exposing Cheshire Cat, but it was not a becoming look for properly bred persons. Even Mark Twain,a man who enjoyed a hearty laugh, said that when it came to photographic portraits there could be “nothing more damning than a silly, foolish smile fixed forever”. 28.According to paragraph 1, the authors posts on Twitter _. A. illustrated the development of Victorian photography. B. highlighted social medias tole in Victorian researches. C. re-evaluated the Victorians notion of public image. D. transformed peoples initial cognition of the Victorians. 29.Mark Twain is quoted to show that the disapproval of smiles in pictures was _. A. a thought-provoking idea B. a two-edged sword C. a controversial view D. a deep-rooted belief 30. Which of the following questions does the text answer? A. When did the Victorians start to view photograph differently? B. How come most Victorians looked stem and stiff in photographs? C. How can re-assessing pasts reveal the contemporary tendency? D. How did smiling in photograph become a post-Victorian norm? 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。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Most smartphones allow you to run location-sharing software that uses the phones GPS capability to let friends and family know your exact location.There are lots of great uses for this technology._31_ So make sure youre permitted to use an app or service, and pay attention to how you are using it.Herere some important points you may find helpful.
