Mr. John Evans had never found the time or the money to make the trip from his home in Fforestfach, near Swansea. But, when British Rail offered him an all-expenses-paid birthday trip to the capital, he just could not refuse.He arrived at Paddington Station and smartly turned out in his best suit and favorite Panama hat with a red rose in his buttonhole. “Its very exciting. Theres no doubt about it,” he said.Until yesterday he had never been far from home, except for one trip to Aberdeen. “But Ive been on the seas to that faraway land called Ilfracombe 21 miles from home,” he joked.Mr. Evans, who spent 60 years working as a miner in South Wales, almost made the journey to London once before, at the turn of the century. “There was a trip to the White City but it was ten shillings return from Swanseatoo much I thought. All my money went to the family then,” he said.During the next two days Mr. Evans will be taken on a short tour of London to seethe sights. Top of his list is a visit to the House of Parliament organized by his MP, Mr. Gareth Wardell.The only arrangement he does not care for is the wheelchair provided for him if he gets tired. “I dont like the chairpeople will think I am getting old,” he said. His secret of a long and healthy life has been well publicizedno wine, no tobacco and no anger.Before setting off from Swansea with his 76-year-old son, Amwell, he said jokingly, “Im glad to see theyve given me a return ticket.”24.

Sightseeing in LondonCHave you ever watched a film about a pilot whos been turned into a pig in 1930s Italy and is in love with a beautiful (human) singer? Or one where a talking cat helps a school girl to escape the king of the land of cats? Maybe youve seen a film with ayoung witch( 女 魔 法 师 ) who starts a delivery service? If so then youve probablydiscovered the joys of Studio Ghibli.Often described as the Japanese answer to Disney, this animation studio has quietly been making great films since 1985 when it was founded by Hayao Miyazaki and Isao Takahata. However, Studio Ghibli is particularly known for artistic animation and unique plots which are popular with adults and children alike. In the last thirty years their films have won international awards and have become recognized for their creativity. Hollywood stars including Anne Hathaway, Christian Bale and Emily Mortimer have all shown their approval and provided English language voices for characters.The most famous film by the studio is spirited Away, which is the most successful Japanese film ever, making $270,000,000 across the world. It also won an Oscar for Best Animated Feature along with numerous other awards. The story follows a ten-year-old girl, Chihiro Ogino, as she accidentally enters another world full of spiritsand monsters( 怪 物 ) while on the way to a new house with her parents. After herparents are turned into pigs she becomes trapped here and to leave she must escape an evil witch. Like many Studio Ghibli films theres lots of Japanese folklore(民间传说)in the plot which makes for a really great and unusual film.My personal favourites include The Cat Returns(featuring the king of the cats) and Porco Rosso(with the pilot whos a pig), but there are seventeen films in total to watch whatever your age or nationality.28. What is the purpose of the question in Paragraph 1?A. To introduce a studio.B. To advertise some films.C. To inspire readers imagination.D. To give an opinion about some films.29. What do the films mentioned in Paragraph 1 have in common?A. They are horror films. B. They are comedy films.C. They have imaginative plots. D. They have complicated plots.30. What can we learn from Paragraph 2?A. Hollywood stars stories.B. Studio Ghiblis main works. C. Classical Hollywood movies.D. Studio Ghiblis achievements.31. What makes Studio Ghibli films special according to Paragraph 3?A. The studios business model.B. Support from Hollywood stars.C. Their influence throughout the world.D. Traditional stories and customs in the plot.DWhen we think of flavor ( 味道), it is our noses and taste buds ( 味蕾) that we think of first. Isnt it natural that taste and smell are the main senses when we enjoy food and drink? Well, perhaps not. “Now we are beginning to understand that flavor depends on parts of the brain that involve not only taste, smell and touch, but vision.These signals, plus our emotions and past experiences, result in perception ( 感受) offlavors, and decide whether we like or dislike foods.” “Years ago, flavor was a table with two legs taste and odor,” Terry E. Acree, PhD, told National Geographic.A good example of “the first bite is taken with the eye” is that if we were shown two plates of strawberries, one red and the other pinkish, the majority of us would beattracted to red because “it signals ripeness, sweetness and calories”， explained TheGuardian.The findings of a German study seem to back this up. Its subjects said wine tasted50 percent sweeter if drunk under red light, rather than under blue or white.In a study released in mid-December, scientists found that the color of your coffee mug can change the way your coffee tastes, reported The Washington Post. And it is not just the color of the food that matters. Specifically, the white mug was associated with a more “intense” (or bitter) tasting cup of coffee, and the clear glass mug was not.The blue mug, meanwhile, was “kind of an intermediate ( 中等的)”, Charles Spence,head of the research laboratory at Oxford University, told the newspaper.The opposite was true for perceived sweetness those who took part tasted less sweetness when drinking from the white mug than they did when drinking from both the blue and clear glass mugs.Its also possible that certain colors are associated with certain experiences. In the case of coffee, the researchers believe the color brown might be something peopleassociate with bitterness. “The white mug may have affected the perceived brownness of the coffee and this, in turn, may have affected the perceived intensity (and sweetness) of the coffee,” the researchers wrote.32. The passage mainly discusses .A. wine and coffeeB. ideas about flavorC. tasting with eyesD. colors and likes33. What does the underlined word “odor” in Paragraph 1 refer to?A. touch.B. color. C. vision.D. smell.34. What color of light can make wine taste 50% sweeter?A. Red.B. White.C. Brown.D. Blue.35. What is the last paragraph mainly about?A. Bitterness and sweetness. B. Brown and white.C. Interest and research.D. Colors and experiences.第二节(共 5 小题；每小题 2 分，满分 10 分) 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。Watermelon is one of the most popular and delicious summer fruits that almost everyone loves. 36 Watermelon is also rich in dietary fiber and potassium( 钾 ).
