mansfield，who was born in wellington，new zealand in 1888，is regarded as one of the greatest short story writers in the world.writing excellent short stories was not this ladys only talent：she was also good at music.mansfield，who came from a wealthy family，left new zealand in 1903 to go to school in england.her first book of short stories was published in 1911，but it was not a great success.like many writers，she used a penname on her books；her real name was kathleen mansfield beauchamp murray.mansfield was very sensitive and often found life very difficult.she became extremely sad when her brother was killed in world war.she was also unhappily married to her first husband，george bowden.more unhappiness followed mansfield when she became seriously ill.to improve her health，she traveled across europe，visiting various health centers.strangely，it was while mansfield was fighting her illness that she wrote some of her greatest stories.her later works，including the garden party and something childish，two of her most famous books，brought her great literary success.however，miss brill is the most loved of all mansfields stories.miss brill is a moving story about a lonely english woman living in paris.mansfield probably used her own experience of paris to write this story.another of her stories called bliss is clearly influenced by her unhappy marriage.good writers，like mansfield，usually write about experience and feelings they are familiar with because this makes their writing more believable.despite her many problems，katherine mansfield lived an interesting and colorful life and made friends with famous writers like dh.lawrence and virginia woolf.unfortunately，she was never very healthy again after her illness and died when she was only thirtyfive years old.she was buried in fontainebleau，near paris.one day，when i visit france，i will put some flowers on the tomb of this writer，who is，in my opinion，the worlds greatest story writer.56which of the following statements is true according to the passage?akatherine mansfield was good at writing and drawing.bwhen she was young she had no money to go to school.cher first book became very popular immediately.dshe didnt put her real name on her books.57choose the right order for the following events.ashe left her hometown.bher brother was killed.cshe published her first book.dshe wrote some of her greatest stories.eshe became seriously ill.aa，d，e，b，c bc，a，d，b，eca，c，b，e，d dc，e，a，d，b58what do we know from the passage?ashe didnt lead a happy life with her husband.bmansfield was not satisfied with the world.cshe was buried in paris.dmansfield was the worlds best writer at that time.59which of the following is mansfields most popular story?amiss brill.bbliss.cthe garden party.dsomething childish.bsome people make you feel comfortable when they are around.you spend an hour with them and feel as if you have known them half your life.these people have something in common.and once we know what it is，we can try to do it ourselves.how is it done? here are several skills that good talkers have.if you follow the skills，theyll help you put people at their ease，and make friends with them quickly.first of all，good talkers ask questions.almost anyone，no matter how shy he is，will answer a question.one wellknown businesswoman says，“at business lunches，i always ask people what they did that morning.its a common question，but it will get things going.” from there you can move on to other matterssometimes to really personal questions.and how he answers will let you know how far you can go.second，once good talkers have asked questions，they listen to the answers.this point seems clear，but it isnt.your questions should have a point and help to tell what sort of person you are talking to.and to find out，you really have to listen carefully and attentively.real listening at least means some things.first it means not to change the subject of conversation.if someone sticks to one topic，you can take it as a fact that hes really interested in it.real listening also means not just listening to words，but to tones of voice.if the voice sounds dull，then，its time for you to change the subject.finally，good talkers know well how to deal with the occasion of parting.if youre saying goodbye，you may give him a firm handshake and say，“ive really enjoyed meeting you.” if you want to see that person again，dont keep it a secret.let people know what you feel，and they may walk away feeling as if theyve known you half their life.60asking questions might be a quite good and suitable way _.afor you to make more and more new friendsbto begin your business talkscto get the conversation going smoothlydfor you to make a deep and lasting impression on others61after having asked somebody a question，itll be polite of you to _.amake clear what kind of person he isblisten to his reply attentivelycwait quietly and patiently for his answerdgo on asking him more questions62generally speaking，good talkers are people who _.aare good at making any topic interestingbnever talk too much or too littlecalways speak in a gentle waydknow how and when they should change the topic of the talk63if you really take delight in meeting someone again，_.ayou may take him as your lifelong trustworthy friendbit seems necessary for you to let him know itcits proper for you to give him a second handshakeditll be helpful for you to have further understanding of himcthe french word renaissance means rebirth.it was first used in 1855 by the historian jules michelet in his history of france，then adopted by historians of culture，by art historians，and eventually by music historians，all of whom applied it to european culture during the 150 years spanning 14501600.the concept of rebirth was appropriate to this period of european history because of the renewed interest in ancient greek and roman culture that began in italy and then spread throughout europe.scholars and artists of the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries wanted to restore the learning and ideals of the classical civilizations of greece and rome.to these scholars this meant a return to humanas opposed to spiritual values.fulfillment in lifeas opposed to concern about an afterlifebecame a desirable goal，and expressing the entire range of human emotions and enjoying the pleasures of the senses were no longer frowned on.artists and writers now turned to secular(不朽的)as well as religious subject matter and sought to make their works understandable and appealing.these changes in outlook deeply affected the musical culture of the renaissance periodhow people thought about music as well as the way music was composed，experienced，discussed，and circulated.they could see the architectural monuments，sculptures(雕塑)，plays，and poems that were being rediscovered，but they could not actually hear ancient musicalthough they could read the writings of classical philosophers，poets，essayists，and music theorists that were becoming available in translation.they learned about the power of ancient music to move the listener and wondered why modern music did not have the same effect.for example，the influential religious leader bernardino cirillo expressed disappointment with the learned music of his time.he urged musicians to follow the example of the sculptors，painters，architects，and scholars who had rediscovered ancient art and literature.the musical renaissance in europe was more a general cultural movement and state of mind than a specific set of musical techniques.furthermore，music changed so rapidly during this century and a halfthough at different rates in different countriesthat we cannot define a single renaissance style.64what is the passage mainly about?athe musical compositions that best illustrate the developments during the european renaissance.bthe musical techniques that were in use during the european renaissance.cthe european renaissance as a cultural development that included changes in musical style.dthe ancient greek and roman musical practices used during the european renaissance.65the underlined word“now”in paragraph 1 refers to _.a1855bthe period of the renaissancectile time of the classical civilizations of greece and romedthe time at which the author wrote the passage66it can be inferred from the passage that thinkers of the renaissance were seeking a rebirth of _.aspirituality in everyday lifebcommunication among artists across europeca cultural emphasis on human valuesdreligious themes in art that would accompany the traditional secular themes67what can be inferred about the music of ancient greece and rome?aits effect on listeners was described in a number of classical texts.bit was played on instruments that are familiar to modern audiences.cit expressed more different ideals than classical sculpture，painting and poetry.dit had the same effect on renaissance audiences as it had when originally performed.dliving in the wild can be hard.finding food and staying safe arent easy.each day，animals struggle to survive in their habitats.not all animals get by on their own.some animals form a close partnership with other kinds of animals.these pairings are called symbiotic (共生的) relationships.in a symbiotic relationship，the animals depend on each other.one animal helps the other meet its needs.sounds good，right? not always.some animals are not very kind to their partners.in some cases，one animal meets its needs but hurts its partner.take ticks，for example.these insects suck blood to live.to get blood，they attach themselves to other kinds of animals.ticks can pass germs that cause disease instead of helping their hosts.in other relationships，animals dont treat their partners so poorly.both animals benefit from living with the other animal.small animals called cleaner shrimps have found a way of helping fish at coral reefs.as their name suggests，the shrimps clean the fish.they hang out at what scientists call a cleaning station.a fish stops by.then a shrimp climbs onto the fish and even steps into the fishs mouth.the shrimp uses its tiny claws to pick stuff off the fishs body.that can include dead skin，tiny pieces of food，and wee creatures that can hurt the fish.the fish gets a nice cleaning.the shrimp enjoys a tasty meal of fish trash.small birds called plovers are also in the cleaning business.they have big customerscrocodiles.crocs have long snouts (鼻子) filled with sharp teeth.cleaning them is tricky.when a croc opens its mouth，the plover hops right in.the croc does not snap its snout shut.instead，it lets the plover eat small，harmful animals attached to its teeth.the plover gets an easy meal while the croc gets clean teeth.68the text is mainly about _.athe hard life in the wildbsome dangerous animalscanimals living togetherdanimals in a symbiotic relationship69according to the text，in a symbiotic relationship，_.aanimals depend on each otherbbirds depend on animals for foodcboth sides can get helpdnot all animals treat their partners well70why do the cleaner shrimps clean the fish?ato get fish trash for food.bto eat wee
