The Biggest Stadiums in the World
People have been pouring into stadiums since the days of ancient Greece. In around 80 A.D., the Romans built the Colosseum, which remains the world’s best known stadium and continues to inform contemporary design. Rome’s Colosseum was 157 feet tall and had 80 entrances, seating 50,000 people. However, that was small fry compared with the city’s Circus Maximus, which accommodated around 250,000 people.
These days, safety regulations-not to mention the modern sports fan’s desire for a good view and comfortable seat—tend to keep stadium capacities（容量） slightly lower. Even soccer fans tend to have a seat each; gone are the days of thousands standing to watch the match.
For the biggest stadiums in the world, we have used data supplied by the World Atlas list so far, which ranks them by their stated permanent capacity, as well as updated information from official stadium websites.
All these stadiums are still funtiona1, still open and still hosting the biggest events in world sport.
·Rungrado 1st of May Stadium, Pyongyang D.P.R. Korea. Capacity: 150,000. Opened: May 1,1989.
·Michigan Stadium, Ann Arbor, Michigan, U. S. Capacity: 107,601. Opened: October 1, 1927.
·Beaver Stadium, State College, Pennsylvania, U. S. Capacity: 106,572. Opened: September 17, 1960.
·Ohio Stadium, Columbus, Ohio, U. S. Capacity: 104,944. Opened: October 7,1922.
·Kyle Field, College Station, Texas, U. S. Capacity: 102,512. Opened: September 24, 1927.
1. How many people could the Circus Maximus hold?
A. 104,944. B. 107,601. C. About 150,000. D. About 250,000.
2. Of the following stadiums, which is the oldest?
A. Michigan Stadium. B. Beaver Stadium. C. Ohio Stadium. D. Kyle Field.
3. What do the listed stadiums have in common?
A. They host big games. B. They have become tourist attractions.
C. They were built by Americans. D. They are favored by architects.

Going to sleep at a certain time is associated with a lower risk of developing heart disease, according to researchers. In a study published in the European Heart Journal, a team found that going to sleep between 10:00pm and 11:00pm was beneficial compared to earlier or later bedtimes. The research included 88,026 participants in the UK.
An analysis found that sleep onset time of 10:00pm to 10:59pm was associated with the lowest incidence of heart disease. There was a 25% higher risk of heart disease with sleep onset at midnight or later, a 12% greater risk for 11:00pm to 11:59pm and a 24% higher risk for falling asleep before 10:00pm compared to sleep onset from 10:00pm to 10:59pm.
"The body has a 24-hour internal clock that helps adjust physical and mental functioning.” Study author David of the University of Exeter said in a statement. “While we cannot conclude from our study, the results suggest that early or late bedtimes may be more likely to destroy the body clock.” “While the findings do not show conclusion, sleep timing has appeared as a potential heart disease risk factor-independent of other risk factors. If our findings are proved in other studies, sleep timing and basic sleep health could be a low-cost public health target for lowering risk of heart disease. “David added.
4. Which is the best time for sleep?
A. 8:40pm. B. 9:50pm. C. 10:45pm. D. 11:10pm.
5. How is Paragraph 2 organized?
A. By giving some data. B. By raising a question.
C. By giving an example. D. By following the time order.
6. What can be inferred from David’s words?
A. Sleep too early will surely cause heart disease.
B Sleep timing is a possible heart disease risk factor.
C. Sleep timing is a risk factor related with other factors.
D. Sleeping before eight will not damage your body clock.
7. What is the best title for the text?
A. Body Clock Makes a Difference to Sleep
B. Sleeping Late is not Harmful to Heart Health
C. Sleep Timing Has an Effect on Heart Disease
D. Earlier Bedtime is More Beneficial than Later One
【答案】4. C 5. A 6. B 7. C
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文主要通过一系列研究，发现睡眠时间对心脏病有影响。

【5题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段“An analysis found that sleep onset time of 10.00 pm to 10.59 pm was associated with the lowest incidence of heart disease. There was a 25% higher risk of heart disease with sleep onset at midnight or later, a 12% greater risk for 11.00 pm to 11.59 pm and a 24% higher risk for falling asleep before 10.00 pm compared to sleep onset from 10.00 pm to 10.59 pm.(一项分析发现，晚上10点到10点59分的睡眠开始时间与心脏病的发病率最低有关。与晚上10点至10点59分入睡相比，午夜或更晚入睡的人患心脏病的风险增加25%，晚上11点至11点59分入睡的人患心脏病的风险增加12%，晚上10点之前入睡的人患心脏病的风险增加24%。)”可推断，第二段是通过提供一些数据组织的。故选A。
【6题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段“sleep timing has appeared as a potential heart disease risk factor-independent of other risk factors.(睡眠时间已被视为一种潜在的心脏病风险因素，与其他风险因素无关。)”可知，从大卫的话中可以推断出睡眠时间是一个可能的心脏病风险因素。故选B。
【7题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第一段“Going to sleep at a certain time is associated with a lower risk of developing heart disease, according to researchers.(根据研究人员的说法，在特定的时间睡觉可以降低患心脏病的风险。)”及全文可知，文章主要通过一系列研究，发现睡眠时间对心脏病有影响。所以“Sleep Timing Has an Effect on Heart Disease(睡眠时间对心脏病有影响)”作为文章标题最为合适。故选C。

An earthquake is one of the most common natural disasters. It may cause great damage. So it is wise to learn some simple safety tips to protect yourself or your family members.
Fragile items, like those made of glass are easily broken and should usually be placed on a lower surface, near the ground instead of placing them on cupboards higher up. Never place them near your bed, sofas and other furniture where you would be sitting or lying down. When there is a strong movement, these pieces will fall on the floor directly and not on you.
There is a strong chance of short circuits (短路) and fire breakouts during an earthquake. Make sure you turn off electrical connections and gas immediately when an earthquake happens.
During an earthquake, lie beneath an object that is not easily damaged. Do not go near objects that could directly fall on you. Never use the elevator to go down. Stay inside until the shaking stops and it is safe to go outside. Research has shown that most injuries happen when people inside buildings try to go out. Use the stairs at all times.
If you are outdoors, do not take shelter under a tree, streetlights, electric poles or tall buildings. If you are driving, stop your car and stay in a safe place. Do not park your car under a tree or any tall object.
If trapped in debris (瓦砾堆), cover your mouth with a handkerchief or clothing. Tap on a pipe or wall so rescuers can find you. Use a whistle (哨子) if one is available. Never shout for help. Shouting can cause you to breathe in dangerous amounts of dust. Do not light a match because you may burn yourself. Do not move about or kick up dust.
8. The purpose of the passage is to tell readers _____.
A. the damage caused by earthquakes
B. the rescue work after earthquakes
C. what to do about earthquakes
D how to prevent earthquakes
9. The underlined word “Fragile” in Paragraph 2 probably means _____.
A. easily broken B. easily found C. expensive D. heavy
10. During the earthquake, people are advised to _____.
A. go out the building at once
B. turn off electricity and gas immediately
C. take shelter under a tree
D. drive to a safe place quickly
11. What should people NOT do when they are trapped in debris?
A. Cover their mouth with a handkerchief.
B. Tap on a pipe or wall for help.
C. Use a whistle for help.
D. Light a match for help.
【答案】8. C 9. A 10. B 11. D

In the 17th century, the Netherlands experienced a period of artistic prosperity known as the Dutch Golden Age. During this period, artists found inspiration in Northern Renaissance painting techniques, contributing to masterpieces like Girl with a Pearl Earring by Johannes Vermeer. Known as the “Mona Lisa of the North”,this painting represents the best of Dutch art and it has become one of art history’s most beloved paintings.
Dutch artist Johannes Vermeer is famous for his paintings of contemporary Delft, a city in Holland where the artist was born, lived and died. Girl with a Pearl Earring is Vermeer’s most well-known work of art. However, it did not attain international fame at its time of completion. That came about at the end of the 20th century, when it was featured in a special exhibition in Washington, D. C.
Girl with a Pearl Earring does not show a specific person. Instead, it shows an unknown girl dressed in grand clothing who, “like a vision coming from the darkness,” art historian Arthur K. Wheelock explained in the Johannes Vermeer catalogue, “belongs to no specific time or place.”
Vermeer is known for his ability to create shapes and forms using light rather than line. This characteristic approach to modeling is particularly evident in Girl with a Pearl Earring. First, he would “invent”, or create an initial drawing on the canvas. Then, he made a single colored underpainting. Next, he added color. And, finally, in order to make the piece extraordinarily bright, he would apply a thin layer of glaze to certain parts of the painting.
In addition to its fascinating context and appealing beauty, the piece is celebrated for the mystery that surrounds it. “When you think about the Mona Lisa, she is also looking at us, but she isn’t engaging — she’s sitting back in the painting, self-contained,” Tracy Chevalier, the author of the New York Times bestselling historical novel, Girl with a Pearl Earring, points out. “While Girl with a Pearl Earring is right there — there is nothing between her and us. She has this magical quality of being incredibly open and yet mysterious at the same time—and that is what makes her so appealing.”
12. What inspired the creation of Girl with a Pearl Earring?
A. Previous artists’ skills. B. The appearance of the girl.
C. Vermeer’s international fame. D. Encouragement from other artists.
13. What do we know about Girl with a Pearl Earring?
A. It is set in the artist’s birthplace. B. It makes the artist famous overnight.
C. It describes a particular and exact girl. D. It is regarded as a match for Mona Lisa.
14. What is the purpose of paragraph 4?
A. To introduce the subject of the painting. B. To show techniques used in the painting.
C. To explain the artistic value of the painting. D. To uncover the mystery behind the painting.
15. How does Tracy comment on Girl with a Pearl Earring?
A. By citing a theory. B. By giving a definition.
C. By offering an example. D. By making a comparison.
【答案】12. A 13. D 14. B 15. D
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了《戴珍珠耳环的女孩》的创作背景，使用到的绘画技巧以及对它的评价。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段的“In the 17th century, the Netherlands experienced a period of artistic prosperity known as the Dutch Golden Age. During this period, artists found inspiration in Northern Renaissance painting techniques, contributing to masterpieces like Girl with a Pearl Earring by Johannes Vermeer.（17世纪，荷兰经历了一段艺术繁荣时期，称为荷兰黄金时代。在这一时期，艺术家们从北方文艺复兴时期的绘画技巧中找到了灵感，创作出了Johannes Vermeer的杰作《戴珍珠耳环的女孩》）”可知，Girl with a Pearl Earring的创作是受到了文艺复兴时期艺术家绘画技巧的启发。故选A。
【13题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段的“Known as the “Mona Lisa of the North”,this painting represents the best of Dutch art and it has become one of art history’s most beloved paintings.（这幅画被称为“北方的蒙娜丽莎”，代表了荷兰艺术的精华，成为艺术史上最受欢迎的画作之一）”可知，Girl with a Pearl Earring被认为能和《蒙娜丽莎》媲美。故选D。
14题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段“Vermeer is known for his ability to create shapes and forms using light rather than line. This characteristic approach to modeling is particularly evident in Girl with a Pearl Earring. First, he would “invent”, or create an initial drawing on the canvas. Then, he made a single colored underpainting. Next, he added color. And, finally, in order to make the piece extraordinarily bright, he would apply a thin layer of glaze to certain parts of the painting.（Vermeer以能用光而不是线创造形状而闻名。这种独特的造型方法在《戴珍珠耳环的女孩》身上尤为明显。首先，他会“发明”，或者在画布上创作一幅最初的图画。然后，他画了一幅单色底色。接下来，他添加了颜色。最后，为了让这幅画格外明亮，他会在画的某些部分涂上一层薄薄的釉料）”推知，本段的主要目的是介绍《戴珍珠耳环的女孩》这幅画使用到的技巧。故选B。
【15题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段Tracy所说的话““When you think about the Mona Lisa, she is also looking at us, but she isn’t engaging—she’s sitting back in the painting, self-contained,” Tracy Chevalier, the author of the New York Times bestselling historical novel, Girl with a Pearl Earring, points out. “While Girl with a Pearl Earring is right there—there is nothing between her and us. She has this magical quality of being incredibly open and yet mysterious at the same time—and that is what makes her so appealing.”（《纽约时报》畅销书历史小说《戴珍珠耳环的女孩》的作者Tracy Chevalier指出：“当你想到《蒙娜丽莎》时，她也在看着我们，但她并不参与其中——她坐在画中，独立存在。”“而《戴珍珠耳环的女孩》就在那里——她和我们之间什么也没有。她有一种神奇的特质，既开放又神秘，这就是她如此吸引人的原因。”）”推知，Tracy是使用对比的方式对《戴珍珠耳环的女孩》进行评论的。故选D。
Ⅱ.七选五。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。（共5小题，每小题2分，满分10分）

【17题详解】

And those who lead these groups are equipped to walk people through their sadness.（然而，有一些支持团体存在，以帮助遭受各种失落的人，如家庭成员的死亡，失业，或其他不幸。领导这些团体的人有能力带领人们走出悲伤）”，结合选项可知，E选项“因此，对于你的朋友来说选择一个加入其中是很好的”符合题意，选项中的“choose one and join it（选择一个加入）”呼应主题。故选E。

I was frightening on my first day of classes at an American university. It was my first time to sit with such many Americans in a classroom. Unlike many other classmate, I sat quietly by myself. My teacher spoke fast and I had a hard time understanding him. There is no doubt that English is a hardest thing I experienced so far. Because I’m a Chinese student, communicate fluently with Americans can be really difficult. However, I have to struggle to understand that is being said in class. Reading and writing are equally as more important as listening and speaking. When my classes started to get busier, I found that harder to finish the passages. That’s when a real disaster struck.
【答案】1. frightening→frightened 2. such→so 3. classmate→classmates 4. a→the 5. 在experienced前加have 6. communicate→communicating 7. However→Therefore/Thus 8. that →what 9. 删除more 10. that→it
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇记叙文。讲述了作者在美国大学初次上课的经历。
【详解】1.考查-ing和-ed形容词的区别。句意：在美国大学上课的第一天，我很害怕。以ed结尾的形容词用来修饰人，表示“感到……的”，以ing结尾的形容词修饰物，表示“令人感到……的”。本句主语为I，应用以ed结尾的形容词frightened作表语，意为“感到害怕的”。故将frightening改为frightened。
2.考查so和such的区别。句意：这是我第一次在教室里和这么多美国人坐在一起。副词so用来修饰形容词、副词、many和much等。so many用来修饰可数名词复数。故将such改为so。
3.考查名词复数。句意：不像许多其他同学，我一个人安静地坐着。根据前文many other可知，可数名词classmate应用复数形式。many用来修饰可数名词复数。故将classmate改为classmates。
4.考查冠词。句意：毫无疑问，英语是我迄今为止经历过的最困难的事情。形容词最高级hardest 前面应用定冠词the。故将a改为the。
5.考查时态。句意：毫无疑问，英语是我迄今为止经历过的最困难的事情。根据时间状语so far可知，谓语动词应用现在完成时，主语为I，助动词have用复数形式。故在experienced前加have。
6.考查非谓语动词。句意：因为我是一个中国学生，和美国人流利地交流是非常困难的。分析可知，句中communicate应用动名词作主语。故将communicate改为communicating。
7.考查句子副词。句意：因此，我不得不努力去理解课堂上所说的内容。前后文之间是因果关系，不是转折关系。故将However改为Therefore/Thus。
8.考查名词性从句引导词。句意：因此，我不得不努力去理解课堂上所说的内容。句中understand后为宾语从句，应用连接代词what引导，在从句中作主语。意为“……的事物”。故将that 改为what。
9.考查固定句型。句意：读和写与听和说同样重要。as…as“和……一样”同级比较句型中用形容词或副词的原级。故删除more。
10. 考查代词。句意：当我的课开始变得繁忙时，我发现完成文章更难了。分析可知，句中不定式短语to finish the passages为真正宾语，应用it作形式宾语。故将that改为it。
