The violin shined in the sunlight, and I admitted, unwillingly, that it looked good. But I knew it was a mockery (笑柄) of my failure to find beauty.“What makes a violin beautiful?”I first asked this question as a three-year-old child and now again as a teenager. When I listened to a violin for the first time, I was so astonished by its beauty that I imagined a fairy living in the wooden frame. But fairies faded when I grew older. I wanted a reasonable answer to the question.I referred to Professor Ruan, my violin teacher, who introduced the violin to me 14 years ago. This 85-year-old man rhapsodized about (热烈赞美) the legend of Antonio Stradivari. “His violins are the most beautiful works human has ever crafted.” “Make a violin with your own hands,” Professor Ruan suggested,“When you play it, youll know.”However, when Professor Ruan introduced to me a violin workshop, what I saw was far from my expectation. In front of me was a fat worker, shirtless and sunburned, soon to become my master. What shocked me most was that the “master” knew nearly nothing about music. His rough hands had been tending crops, not instruments, for most of his life.Two months later, standing outside the workshop, I was disappointed. Yes, I just finished or copied a Stradivarius violin. But I didnt find beauty in it. Then I remembered Professor Ruans words, “When you play it, youll know.” So I closed my eyes, and focused on where my fingers and strings touched. Music flowed suddenly so beautifully that for a moment I doubted my own ears. Slowly I opened my eyes, and with surprise found the fairy of my childhood fantasy dancing to my music the two-year-old daughter of the master.Professor Ruan was right. I didnt find beauty until I played music with the violin, because beauty isnt in the instrument itself. Its just here, deep down, in ourselves.1、When he listened to a violin for the first time, what happened to the writer?AHe found the violin looked beautiful.BHe was astonished to see a fairy in the violin.CHe became interested in the violin.DHe began to learn how to play violin.2、After consulting Professor Ruan, what did the writer think made a violin beautiful?AThe person who makes the violin.BThe person who plays the violin.CThe appearance of the violin.DThe sound of the violin.3、What did the writer do in the workshop during two months?AHe listened to the legend of Antonio Stradivari.BHe taught the master knowledge of music.CHe played music with the violin for the daughter of the master.DHe made his own violin with the help of the master.4、Why did the writer feel disappointed when he was outside the workshop?AHe created an ugly-looking violin.BHis master knew little about music.CHe failed to find beauty in the violin.DHe had to work in a terrible workshop.5、The text mainly tells us that _.Amusic brings beautyBbeauty lies in our heartsCwe should develop a hobbyDteachers are important to students22（8分） Housekeeping Services - A responsible, professional, experienced housekeeper is needed to take care of all cleaning details of a local business in Angwin.

When she arrived the shop she works in, it was one of only a few Spanish businesses. Now there are many more. “Its good now if you speak Spanish,” she smiles.Baltimore has been losing people for 60 years. To address this, its mayor, Stephanie Rawlings-Blake, wants to make it the most immigrant-friendly city in the world. Its libraries provide Spanish-language exercise classes. To help those with no papers, the city is introducing micro-loans (小额贷款) which require no credit checks; city police would no longer routinely check the immigration status of citizens or enforce any federal immigration law unless required to. The then governor, Martin OMalley made it possible for illegal immigrants to get driving licenses.Such welcoming policies are spreading. Such cities as Cleveland, Dayton and Philadelphia all eagerly try to please immigrants. Rick Snyder, the governor of Michigan, has asked the federal government to offer 50,000 visas to people who agree to live in Detroit. His administration has made it easier for skilled migrants to get professional licenses.When a citys population falls, both tax receipts and services fall. Half-deserted neighborhoods breed (滋生) crime, driving yet more people to leave. No city has escaped this death circle without attracting new residents, says Steve Tobocman of Global Detroit.Several studies suggest that when immigrants arrive, crime goes down, schools improve and shops open up. In Detroit, immigrants living near the tiny separate city of Hamtramck have formed local watches to guard against thieves. Their neighborhoods are not just safer; they are also among the only places where it is as easy to buy fresh vegetables as drugs and alcohol.But attracting new immigrants to the cities which most need them is hard, argues Audrey Singer of the Brookings Institution. They care about the same things as everyone else: safe streets, good schools and jobs. Cities which have lost population for decades struggle with all of these.1、What does the underlined word “address” in Paragraph 2 mean?AAccount for.BDeal with.CGet rid of.DTake away from.2、What may happen when a half-deserted city makes efforts to attract new residents?ACredit card checks will be stricter.BImmigrants identity will be protected.CThe public services will get worse.DThe crime rate will decline.3、Which of the following statements may Audrey Singer agree with?AAttracting immigrants to such cities as Detroit is demanding.BImmigrants have higher expectations of a city than its locals.CThere is no need to encourage such immigrant-friendly policies.DAttracting immigrants helps prevent a city from losing population.24（8分）Soaping up your hands may do more than just get rid of germs. It may wash away the inner confusion you feel right after being forced to make a choice between two appealing choices, according to a new study. The study builds on past research into a phenomenon known as “the Macbeth effect”.It turns out that Shakespeare was really onto something when he imagined lady Macbeth trying to clean her conscience（良心）by rubbing invisible bloodstains from her hands. A few years ago, scientists asked people to describe a past wrong act. If people were then given a chance to clean their hands, they later expressed less guilt than people who hadnt cleaned.This finding fascinated W. S. Lee, a researcher. “Anything from the past, any kind of negative emotional experiences, might be washed away,” says Lee.He decided to test hand washings effect on one kind of bad feeling: the tension we feel after being forced to choose between two attractive choices, because picking one choice makes us feel that weve lose the other. People usually try to calm this inner conflict by later exaggerating（夸大）the positive aspects of their choice.He had students rank 10 different music CDs. Then he offered students one CD as a gift. Some students then use liquid soap. Others only looked at the soap or sniffed（嗅）it. “Actually, you do not need water and soap,” says Lee.Later, the students again had to rank all the music. People who didnt wash their hands had the normal response they scored their take-home CD higher, suggesting that they now saw it as even more attractive than before. But this wasnt true for the hand washers. They ranked the music about the same. “they feel no need at all to justify the choice,” say Lee.But the implications of it just arent clear. Schwarz says its too soon to know whether people should head for a sink after making a tough choice. He says washing may help decision-makers by cleaning away mental disorder, but perhaps if they dont go through the usual post-decision process of justifying their choice, they might feel more sorrow in the long run.1、The Macbeth effect refers to the fact that _.AShakespeare did scientific research before writing MacbethBsoaping up ones hand may help wash away the inner confusion and make a decisionCpeople feel less guilty by getting rid of invisible germs from their handsDpeople feel less ashamed after washing their hands2、According to Lee, after people make the choice _.Athey will overstate the goodness of their chosen choiceBthey will feel regretful for not choosing anotherCthey will feel free due to the feeling of losing the other choiceDthey will think nothing of their chosen choice any more to calm their inner conflict3、According to Lee, the hand washers consider the judgment of choice _.Amore scientific BunnecessaryCa little convincing Dabsolutely useless4、What does Schwarz need to research more?AWhether people need to justify their choice.BWhether people feel more sorrow after washing hands.CWhether washing hands help over a long period of time.DWhether washing hands is helpful to make a choice.5、What might be the most suitable title for the passage?AIs Washing Hands Necessary to Defeat Tension?BWashing Hands, Washes
