But that rule doesnt seem to apply to Bruno Mars. The 32-year-old US singer is, in the eyes of The New York Times critic Jon Caramanica, one of the most versatile and accessible singers. After hearing the musician display a wide variety of music styles ranging from pop to hip-hop to rock, Caramanica said “there is nowhere Mars doesnt belong.” Mars won six awards at the American Music Awards on Nov 19, including artist of the year and favorite male artist. And unlike many of todays popular singers, Mars didnt get to where he is through a talent show or the internet. After he left his hometown of Hawaii for Los Angeles, California, to pursue(追逐) his dreams at 17, Mars was “rejected and rejected and rejected for years”, as he told the Mercury News. Before he was able to appear on stage, he had to prove himself by producing and writing songs for others. So what does Mars owe his success to? “Spending thousands of hours in a studio learning how to write a song, learning how to play different chords, training myself to sing,” he said in an interview on US TV show 60 minutes last year. “I dont really know if thats a good thing or a bad thing as no one knows what to categorize my voice or my music, I just know that Im a fan of all different kinds of music styles. Youre supposed to be free doing music and thats how I feel. So when we get in the studio- whether its a hip-hop song, or a big ballad- I want to do it all,” he said. However, it seems that Mars forgot to mention one thing: his amazing talent.21. What does the underlined sentence in Paragraph1 probably mean? A. Mars is given a label to rock music.B. Mars music doesnt belong to any style.C. Mars music isnt accepted by the public.D. Mars can display various music styles.22. Mars spent a lot of time doing many things except .A. producing and writing songsB. playing different chordsC. joining in the talent showD. training to sing by himself23. What does the text mainly tell us?A. The popularities of Mars music.B. The Awards Mars got in music.C. The secrets of Mars success in musicD. The reasons for Mars becoming a singer.B Its easy to think that the globes vast oceans would be effective barriers to the movement of land animals. An elephant cant swim across the pacific, after all, but it turns out that plenty of plants and animals have unintentionally floated across oceans from one continent to another. Now comes evidence that tiny, trapdoor spiders made such a journey millions of years ago.Moggridgea rainbowi spiders can be found on Kangaroo Island, Which sits off the south coast of Australia. These spiders build a silk- lined burrow(地洞) in the ground, notes Sophie Harrison , a biologist in Australia. The burrow and trapdoor provide these spiders with shelter and protection. It also provides them an out-of-sight spot from which to wait for approaching preys.There is evidence, though, that the ancestors of them might have travelled millions of meters to get to Australia- from Africa. That isnt as unlikely as it might at first seem, Australia used to be connected to other continents, long ago, as part of a supercontinent called Gondwana. And humans have been known to transport species all over the planet. But theres a third option. The spiders might have rafted long distance across the sea.To figure out which story was most likely true. Harrison and her colleagues looked at the spiders genes. They looked at the genes in seven Moggridgea rainbowi spiders from Kangaroo, and five species of Moggridgea spiders from South Africa. The Australian and African spiders split off from a common ancestor some 2 million to 16 millions years ago, the genes showed.If a large swatch of land washes into the sea, filled with arachnids, the spiders may be able to hide themselves throughout the journey .Plus, they can “hold their breath” and survive on stored oxygen during periods of temporary flooding, the researchers note.24. What is the common belief about land animals according to the text?A. They are sensitive to natural disastersB. They are unlikely to move across oceans.C. They cant make a long ocean voyage.D. They float across oceans accidentally. 25. How did the researchers conclude Australian and African spiders are from a common ancestor?A. By making changes to their genes. B. By observing their living habits.C. By comparing the genes of the two.D. By studying their physical characteristics.26. According to the passage, we can infer that 。A. the spiders traveled globally to hide themselvesB. the spiders became more adaptive when travelingC. the spiders crossed an ocean to Australia for survivalD. The spiders crossed an ocean to become Australians naturallyCFeb 14, 2018Valentines Day, is supposed to be filled with love and happiness. But for students at Marjory Stoneman Douglas high school in Florida, US, this year, it ended up as a nightmare. A mass shooting occurred at the school that day, with at least 17 people dead and several others wounded, according to NBC News. This makes it the deadliest school shooting in the US since 20 children and six adults died in a mass shooting at Sandy Hook Elementary School, Connecticut, in 2012, according to Time magazine. Nikolas Cruz, 19, a former student of the school who had been dismissed for breaking school rules, admitted to carrying out the shootings. The weapon that he used was a rifle(步枪), which he had bought completely legally. This raised awareness of a serious issue, that “most Americans can buy a rifle before they can buy their first beer”, wrote HuffPost. While Americans have to turn 21 to buy alcohol legally, they can buy a gun, including a rifle, at the age of 18 in most states, according to the Guardian. “It is absolutely striking that a young adult who is not legally able to buy alcohol can just walk into a gun store and, provided they pass a background check, can buy a very high-powered and, in some cases, military-style weapon,” Lindsay Nichols, from the Giffords Law Center to Prevent Gun Violence, told the Guardian. The low age requirement for buying long-range guns can be traced back decades, when hunting was very popular among young people in the US, according to the Associated Press. “Young men would have valid reasons for hunting, and they could even have a gun for self defense, but it was primarily for recreation,” Adam Winkler, a law professor at the University of California at Los Angeles, US, told HuffPost. Now, this latest mass shooting in the US has brought back debates over gun control in the country. On Feb 19, many students protested in front of the White House in Washington, calling for more to be done about gun control. The US government is now considering raising the minimum age for buying guns, reported The Telegraph. As incidents such as this one are becoming more common in the US, perhaps now is the time for the US to finally take action. Just as Sofie Whitney, a senior student at Marjory Stoneman Douglas high school, told the Guardian, “The only way to get through is by making the change.”27. According to the passage, what happened on Feb.14th 2018 ?A. Nikolas Cruzs classmates experienced a nightmare that day.B. A deadly mass shooting occurred at a high school in Florida, US.C. Many students protested in front of the White House to call for gun control.D. NBC news reported the deadliest shooting at Sandy Hook Elementary School. 28. Which of the following is true according to the text?A. Nikolas Cruz was dismissed by school for carrying out the shootings.B. The shooting at Marjory Stoneman Douglas high school is the biggest shock.C. All Americans above 18 can buy a gun legally without any check.D. Young people used to have guns mainly for self-defense when hunting.29. What is the main purpose of the text?A. To report a school shooting happened in Florida. B. To advise stores not to sell guns and alcohol to the young.C. To demand the government to take some actions on gun control.D. To tell us the reasons why young people like to have guns.30. Whats the writers attitude towards gun control in America? A. Supportive B. Disapproving C. Doubtful D.
