In his spare time though he goes on stage beside pianist Mary — not as a musician but as her page turner. “I’m not a trained musician, but I’ve learnt to read music so I can help Mary in her performance.”Jack has been the group’s official page turner for the past four years. His job is to sit beside the pianist and turn the pages of the score so the musician doesn’t have to break the flow of sound by doing it themselves. He said he became just as nervous as those playing instruments on stage.“A lot of skills are needed for the job. You have to make sure you don’t turn two pages at once and make sure you find the repeats in the music when you have to go back to the right spot.” Jack explained.Being a page turner requires plenty of practice. Some pieces of music can go for 40 minutes and require up to 50 page turns, including back turns for repeat passages. Silent onstage communication is key, and each pianist has their own style of “nodding” to indicate a page turn which they need to practise with their page turner.But like all performances, there are moments when things go wrong. “I was turning the page to get ready for the next page, but the draft wind from the turn caused the spare pages to fall off the stand,” Jack said, “Luckily I was able to catch them and put them back.”Most page turners are piano students or up-and-coming concert pianists, although Mary has once asked her husband to help her out on stage.“My husband is the worst page turner,” she laughed. “He’s interested in the music, feeling every note, but I have to say, ‘Turn, turn!’ “Jack is the best page turner I’ve had in my entire life.”29.What is Jack required to do as a page turner?A.

Performing in his own style.32.Why is Mary’s husband “the worse page turner”?A. He has very poor eyesight.       B. He ignores the audience.C. He has no interest in music.      D. He forgets to do his job.COur culture is the system we use to build our identity. All living things are part of a culture. Even animals have a culture! So what is culture? It’s the way we behave in a group. It begins with each individual family. Within our families we do things to build relationships with each other. This can include routines like daily housework and weekly shopping. It also includes traditions. Traditions are activities that are repeated on a regular basis.Culture is not limited to individual family groups. The real strength of culture is in larger community groups. These larger groups are called societies. Every society makes rules for itself. It decides how people should act in different situations. Some of these rules are written down. Some are just things that are naturally expected of all members of that society. Often, cultures can be recognized by what the people believe. Cultures are also known by what they choose to include in their art. Sometimes a society forms around people who speak the same language. Cultures may also be known for their customs, including the foods they make and the things they do.Our cultures help us understand who we are and what we believe. There are very strong feelings connecting us to our own society. Two different cultures may disagree on something, especially if they both feel strongly about it. When that happens, war is a common result. People are learning better ways to communicate with each other. The more we learn, the more we appreciate the differences in cultures.33. The underlined word “routines” in Paragraph 1 is closest in meaning to _______.A. personal hobbies      B. personal behaviors   C. family activities       D. daily activities34. Where does the real strength of culture?A. In arts.   B. In societies.   C. In families.   D. In languages.35. Which of the following may the author disagree with according to the passage?A. Culture doesn’t exist in animals.B. Culture is the way we behave.C. Culture may not agree with each other.D. Culture help us understand ourselves.36. How can people appreciate cultural differences?A. By building a wall.       B. By preparing to fight.   C. By communicating.       D. By making friends.DIreland has had a very difficult history. The problems started in the 16th century when England tried to rule Ireland. For hundreds of years, the Irish people fought against the English. Finally, in 1921, the British government was forced to give independence to the south of Ireland. The result is that today there are two “Irelands”. Northern Ireland, in the north, is part of the United Kingdom. The Republic of Ireland, in the south, is an independent country.
     In the 1840s the main crop, potatoes, was affected by disease and about 750,000 people died of hunger. This, and a shortage of work, forced many people to leave Ireland and live in the USA, the UK, Australia and Canada. As a result, the population fell from 8.2 million in 1841 to 6.6 million in 1851.
     For many years, the majority of Irish people earned their living as farmers. Though many people still follow the routine nowadays, more and more people are moving to the cities to work in factories and offices. Life in the cities is very different from life in the countryside, where things move at a quieter and slower pace.
     The Irish are famous for being warm-hearted and friendly. Oscar Wilde, a famous Irish writer, once said that the Irish were "the greatest talkers since the Greeks". Since independence, Ireland has revived its own culture of music, language, literature and singing. Different areas have different styles of old Irish songs which are sung without instruments. Other kinds of Irish music use many different instruments such as the violin, whistles, etc.37. What can we learn from Paragraph 1?A. England ruled Ireland in the 16th century.B. The Irish people fought for the English.C. Northern Ireland belongs to the UK.D. Ireland is an independent country.Why did the population of Ireland once decrease greatly?A. The Irish were killed by the English rulers.
B. The Irish were affected by a deadly disease.
C. The Irish were not eager to give birth to babies.
D. The Irish suffered from food and work shortage.How did most Irish people make their living?A. By working on the fields.       B. By working in offices.
C. By working in factories.        D. By performing instruments.What can be a suitable title for the text?A. The History of Ireland B. The Introduction of Ireland
