It is especially popular in Guangdong, Guangxi, HongKong and Macau, but has been performed all around the world. With a history that dates back to the Jiajing period of the Ming Dynasty, this beautiful art form has pleasedaudiences for hundreds of yearsCantonese Opera developed during the 16th century by mixing many different opera styles that were popular at the time. It combined forms of opera from the northern provinces with local performance traditions in Guangdong. The unique combination of these different influences created a new kind of theatre. In the early days of Cantonese Opera, many performances were held on small stages in the countryside of the south-eastern provinces. As the art became more popular, performances were more often seen in city theaters. During the 20th century, Cantonese Opera became increasingly popular across the country, and many performers became quite famous. Cantonese Opera is a wonderful mix of storytelling, music and fighting. The performances are often based on well-known traditional stories or events from Chinese history. The colourful sets serve as the background for these performances, and actors appear on stage in similarly colourful costumes and face paint. Fights are a common and important part of many shows with actors performing difficult and exciting martial arts movements.There are four key skills in Cantonese Opera: singing, acting, speeches and martial arts. Performers are usually trained in each of these areas, which makes this a very difficult art form. Because of its long tradition and its importance in the development of Chinese arts and culture, Cantonese Opera was included on the UNESCO intangible cultural heritage list in 2009. 39．In which part of China did the Cantonese Opera develop?  A．Southern China B．Eastern ChinaC．Northern China D．Western China40．What does the underline word" audience" in paragraph 1 probably mean?  A．people who watch sth. B．people who perform sth.C．people who disagree sth. D．people who organize sth.41．What is the main idea of Paragraph two?  A．Why did the Cantonese Opera developB．When did the Cantonese Opera developC．How did the Cantonese Opera developD．Where did the Cantonese Opera develop42．Which of the following is NOT TRUE according to the passage?  A．There are four main skills in Cantonese Opera.B．Most of the stories in Cantonese Opera are unknown.C．There used to be many countryside performances of Cantonese Opera.D．Cantonese began in the 16th century.43．What can we infer from the last paragraph?  A．Cantonese Opera is a very easy art form to learn.B．Cantonese Opera wasn't in the intangible cultural heritage list until 2009.C．The performer of Cantonese Opera can only be trained one of the skills.D．The popularity of Cantonese Opera remains the same since 2009.阅读理解Computers, smart-phones, and other machines are the perfect servants. They always do what they are "told". We usually "tell" them to do things by using a mouse or keyboard. But what if we could just talk to them normally and truly tell them what to do?This type of technology, known as voice control or voice recognition, has been shown in films and TV shows since the 1960s. The Star Trek TV series, which debuted (首播) at this time, showed spaceships that could reply to human voice commands. The 1968 film 2001: A Space Odyssey "starred" HAL 9000, a computer that human astronauts could talk to. It was mainly used to play chess and repair the astronauts' spaceship. Real-world voice recognition, on the other hand, is used for more  everyday tasks. You might be familiar with Siri and Alexa, two examples of voice recognition software made by Apple and Amazon. They can  be asked to do many things, from setting alarms and playing music to placing online grocery ( 日 常 采 购 ) orders and activating household appliances (家用电器). One of the nice things about voice recognition is that it can be used when we're on the go. When you're driving a car or walking down the sidewalk, it can be inconvenient or even dangerous to pick up your smartphone and type away on the keyboard. Voice recognition allows you to focus on whatever you're doing at the moment while still doing other tasks. People with hearing disabilities can also benefit (获 益), as speech recognition software can be used to "listen" to spoken words and turn them into text that deaf people can read. Advanced speech recognition software can even hear words spoken in one language and then translate them into another language.44．What does the underline word" commands" in paragraph 2 probably mean?  A．orders B．challenges C．problems D．habits45．Which of the following statement about voice recognition is TURE?  A．It came into service in the 1960s.B．A 1968 film came up with the idea.C．It is only used in high-tech areas.D．It is used by people in their daily lives.46．How does voice recognition help keep people safe?  A．It allows you to type on the keyboard more conveniently.B．It encourages people to do many tasks at the same time.C．It helps you focus on what you are doing.D．It can control your car for a short while.47．Real-world voice recognition can be asked to do many things EXCEPT______.   A．Turn spoken words into text for the deaf.B．Recognize a certain voice.C．Play chess.D．Create languages.48．What is the best title for this passage?  A．the introduction of the voice controlB．the history of the voice controlC．the difference between voice control and facial recognitionD．the method of using the voice control七、任务型阅读(共5小题，每小题 1分，小计 5分)阅读短文及文后选项，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。(其中有一项为多余项)Comic books first became very popular with young people in the United States in the 1940s and 1950s. 　49．     　.
