On November 24, 1868, Scott Joplin was born in Texas. He became famous as a ragtime (拉格泰姆音乐) composer and piano player. Ragtime music was an early form of jazz. This music has a lively beat and was developed from the music of African Americans.
Ragtime became popular in the early 1890s, and the music was played on the piano. The piano player usually made up a melody, and then changed it a little bit every time he played. Scott Joplin was very good at composing, or making up music and playing the piano. When he was growing up, Joplin’s home was filled with music. Still, Joplin’s father did not want him to be a musician. When he was about 14 years old, Joplin left home to travel and start a life of his own. He traveled all over the Midwest playing the piano and composing music. Sometimes he played with music groups. Other times he sang by himself in noisy saloons and bars. In 1899, Joplin wrote Maple Leaf Rag, a ragtime song that became a big hit and earned Joplin the title of The King of Ragtime. In all, he wrote more than 500 songs. Joplin’s biggest dream was to compose a ragtime opera. Finally, after 10 years, Joplin completed a ragtime opera which he called Treemonisha. This opera was about a young black woman who became a leader of her people. She tried to help her people gain their freedom and their rights.
1916, Joplin became very sick. He had a disease that made him forget things and become easily afraid of things. In 1917, he was put in the hospital. He finally died there on April 1, 1917. Scott Joplin’s music became popular again in the early 1970s when it was used in a movie called The Sting.
24. Which of the following best describes ragtime?
A. It is a kind of jazz music.
B. It was born in Texas.
C. It sounds slow and sad.
D. It is played on the guitar.
25. Joplin took up ragtime .
A. with strong family support
B. against his father’s will
C. for a richer and happier life
D．with the hope of traveling
26. What can we know Maple Leaf Rag?
A. It was a ragtime opera.
B. It was attacked by other composers.
C. It was used in a movie.
D. It won the composer great honor.

In the shadow of Kenya’s Mount Kilimanjaro, nine Rothschild giraffes, the rarest giraffes on the planet, are free to wander at the English-style manor (庄园). Every day shortly before 9am, they come up to the house and stick their heads through the windows and doors in search of morning treats. The manor’s owners, Tanya and Mikey Carr-Hartley, share their dining table with them. And now the couple are sharing the fantastic experience with the public by opening the manor gates to guests at the giraffe hotel, the only hotel of its kind in the world. Now, guests can feed the giraffes at breakfast but can also get up close to them from their second-floor bedrooms.
Mr and Mrs Carr-Hartley, both 38, spent their childhood living close to the house in Nairobi and have always been enthusiastic about the animals. Tanya said, “Mikey and I grew up near this manor house when we were children. We are both third generation Kenyans and have always wanted to work in conservation. Mikey’s family have been related to the protection of animals for many generations. His granddad helped the removal of giraffes as far back as the 1930s because the Rothschild giraffes lost much of their natural living space. When the house came up for sale, we jumped at the chance to buy it as we had always dreamed of owning it. Now, we were absolutely overjoyed to do something for the giraffe protection. Having the giraffes so close is very special and something which people can now experience by staying in one of the ten rooms at the hotel.”
A conservation project to save them was started at the manor in 1974 by the previous owners. “The previous owners ran a very successful breeding (繁殖) programme, where many giraffes were set free into the wild and we hope to continue,” said Tanya.
28. Why are the Carr-Hartley family unusual?
A. They’re living on the rarest giraffes.
B. They share their home with giraffes.
C. They’re good at making giraffes’ food.
D. They train giraffes to manage the hotel.
29. What can we know about Mikey’s family?
A. It has had a long connection with giraffes.
B. It used to raise giraffes around the manor.
C. It built a new manor for the wild giraffes.
D. It removed giraffes to Mount Kilimanjaro.
30. Which can best describe the manor’s previous owners’ conservation project?
A. Visitor-friendly.
B. Energy-saving.
C. Costly.
D. Fruitful.
31. What is the suitable title for the text?
A. Giraffes’ breakfast by guests
B. Meanings for giraffe protection
C. The world’s only giraffe hotel
D. History of the giraffe manor
D
The rebuilt Notre Dame(巴黎圣母院) could feature a futuristic glass design, solar power, and an urban farm that supports vulnerable and homeless Parisians, if one architecture firm's vision is realized.
In April, French Prime Minister Edouard Philippe announced an international competition for architects to redesign the cathedral's 19th century spire(尖顶), which fell down after a fire destroyed the 850-year-old Gothic landmark. Paris firm Vincent Callebaut Architectures (VCA) responded to the call with an eco-friendly design that supports the local population and produces more energy than it uses.
The Vincent Callebaut(VC) project is titled "Palingenesis", a Greek concept of rebirth or recreation. The firm proposes a new roof made of glass, oak and carbon fiber, which connects "in one single curved stroke of pencil" to the sloping spire. The rooster which topped the original spire, regained from the remains after the fire, will resume its watch from the new glass design, while the cathedral's choir will be "bathed in natural light".
Beneath the spire, the roof will host a fruit and vegetable farm run by charities and volunteers, in order to produce free food for vulnerable local people. "Up to 21 tons of fruits and vegetables could be harvested and directly redistributed for free each year," the firm said in a press release. "To that end, a farmers' market would be held every week on the forecourt of Notre Dame." The roof and spire will also produce electricity, heat and ventilation (air circulation) for the cathedral: an "organic active layer" within the glass will provide solar power, while the roof's diamond-shaped "scales" will open to offer natural ventilation -a design inspired by termite mounds(白蚁丘). The spire will act as a space in which hot air accumulates in winter.
"How can we write the contemporary history of our country, but also that of science, art and spirituality together?" the firm said in a press release. "We seek to present a supreme project, a symbol of a lively and ecological future.” If the Vincent Callebaut design is selected, the firm said, the reborn Notre Dame will define "the new face of the Church in the 21st century", presenting "a fairer symbiotic relationship between humans and nature".

32. What can be learned about the design of Notre Dame by VCA?
A. It focuses on the theme of "green".
B. It gets the most local support than the others.
C. It can recover Notre Dame's original appearance.
D. It is from the most famous architect around the world.
33. What does the underlined part "resume its watch" in paragraph 2 mean?
A. be decorated with a watch.
B. show people the right time again.
C. be removed and placed somewhere else.
D. overlook Notre Dame again at its original place.
34. What does paragraph 3 mainly talk about?
A. The inspiration of the design.
B. The function of the roof and the spire.
C. A detailed introduction of the VCA project.
D. The symbol of Notre Dame for the local people.
35. What can be inferred from the last paragraph?
A. The future of the new Notre Dame looks black.
B. The proposal for the Notre Dame has been approved.
C. The VCA is confident about winning the competition.
D. The new design will be a mix of history, science and art.

How Running Helped Me Turn My Life Around
I've never been an athlete. Aside from excelling at all academic disciplines at school, my main goal was to 41 PE at all costs. In my twenties, I went for an occasional yoga or Zumba class, but that was really the summary of all my athletic accomplishments.
That was until the end of 2016, when I was unexpectedly laid off. The chances of getting a new 42 soon were not in my favor and 43 thoughts of not being good enough started to kick in. I was feeling quite depressed but pushed myself to go and 44 for the TCS NYC Marathon runners as the course was going through our neighborhood.
However, while being there, I got phenomenal 45 from all the runners, smiling, applauding and high-fiving constantly. Not a runner myself, I thought maybe I could give running a 46 , just to try, to use my neglected gym membership and see where it 47 me. And so I tried. I went to my local gym the next morning and got on a treadmill （跑步机）. I was out of breath by minute five, but I 48 down, walked for a bit and then restarted. I came back the next day, hoping to 49 a few minutes longer. By the end of two weeks, I could run for 30 minutes, which was a huge 50 .
While I saw my body starting to look more toned, I also noticed my negative thoughts didn't occur that 51 . And it sparked a thought—what if I could set a running 52 and sign up for my first- ever race? I did and races became a new hobby.
In the meantime, I was able to 53 a few freelance （自由职业的）projects. They offered me a good 54 , and, most importantly, the time to work out for the big race. Also, when I was going for interviews, I started to feel very 55 in my abilities, experience and skills.
I got my full-time job 56 at my dream company just a couple of weeks before the halfmarathon. Although I got an 57 from overtraining right before the race, I still went for it and still finished within my 58 time.
I still have a long running 59 ahead of me—I'd love to work on my speed, my technique and I dream of running a marathon outside of the US. Running gives me 60 that I can do anything I set my mind to.

When tea plants are ready, farmers and workers pick the right leaves from the plants. Then the leaves are put out to dry for several hours. When the leaves are about 60 to 70 percent dry, they are rolled. This gets rid of any extra water. Then the leaves are laid out in a warm room. The oxygen in the air makes the leaves change color. To make tea with a light taste, like green tea, the leaves are laid out for a short time. For stronger, darker tea, the leaves are laid out for a longer time. When the leaves are the right color, they are sorted and packed for sale.
