When he was interviewed about the award, Mo said, “Ill continue the career Ive taken, feet on the ground, describing peoples lives and emotions, writing from the standpoint (立场) of ordinary people.” The Swedish Academy praised (赞扬) Mo Yan for “mixing folk tales, history and the contemporary with hallucinatory (幻觉的) realism”.Mo, whose real name is Guan Moye, was born in a farming family in eastern Shandong province in 1955. Mo once said his penname, meaning “dont speak”, was intended to remind him to hold his tongue in case he got himself into trouble since he began writing while serving in the army. Mo has published novels, short stories, and essays on various topics. His works have been translated into many languages. His writing is powerful, visual, and broad, dipping into history to tell stories of China and its people. All his novels create unique individual realities, quite different from the political stories. He said, “Writers should express criticism and anger at the dark side of society and the ugliness of human nature, but should not use one uniform expression. Some may want to shout on the street, but we should tolerate those who hide in their rooms and use literature to voice their opinions.”His breakthrough came with the novel Red Sorghum published in 1987. Set in a small village, Red Sorghum is a tale about love and peasant struggles. The novel was adapted into a film that won the top prize at the Berlin International Film Festival in 1988 and that made Mo popular. Last year, Mo was the winner of the Mao Dun Literature Prize in 2011 for Frog. Among the works highlighted by the Nobel judges were Red Sorghum and Big Breasts & Wide Hips, as well as The Garlic Ballads.36. What do we know about Mo Yan according to the passage? A. He has dreamed of winning the Nobel Prize for decades. B. He will stick to his own writing style though he won the honor. C. He published his first work when he was serving in the army. D. He is good at writing hallucinatory stories of farmers.37. Why did Guan Moye choose “Mo Yan” as his penname? A. To speak as little as possible.B. To save more time to write his books. C. To avoid getting into trouble. D. To draw others attention on him.38. From what Mo Yan said in Paragraph 3, we can infer that_. A. people can show their anger by shouting on the street B. writers have duty to describe the dark side and the ugliness of society C. people hiding in their rooms are more concerned by writers D. writers should have their own unique expressions in their works39. Which of the following is TRUE about Mo Yans works? A. His work Frog was highlighted by Nobel judges.B. All his works have been translated into many languages. C. Red Sorghum was adapted into a film and met with great success. D. All his novels have connection with political stories.BFor thousands of years, people have wanted to explore the world under the sea. Such activity was not possible until modern times. Today, divers (潜水者) can survive for hours underwater and photograph fish and other sea creatures. Not everyone can swim with fish in the ocean. But they can enjoy underwater life in another wayby visiting an aquarium (水族馆). Experts do not really know when people began keeping fish as pets. But they say that people have been interested in fish for thousands of years. The ancient Sumerians (苏美尔人) were the first civilization to keep fish in ponds more than four thousand years ago. The Chinese kept and studied carp and goldfish more than one thousand years ago. The ancient Romans kept eels as pets. And the Greek philosopher Aristotle made what is believed to be the first known study of sea life, including sharks and dolphins. By the middle of the 19th century, science had shown that plants, fish and other sea creatures could survive together under water. Therefore, it was no longer necessary to change the water in a tank for fish to live there. This led to the building of the first public aquariums.The first aquarium opened in London in 1853. In the next fifteen years, other aquariums opened in Europe and the United States. By 1928, there were about forty-five public aquariums in the world. Today everyone still seems to be enthusiastic for undersea creatures and it is reported that millions of people visit aquariums in more than thirty countries every year.40. It can be inferred from the passage that .A. an aquarium is a public place where people can explore the undersea worldB. the history of aquariums can trace back to ancient ChinaC. common peoples curiosity to explore the sea can be met by visiting an aquariumD. in old times people managed to explore the undersea world41.

A. Peoples wish to explore the sea.B. The new material invented to build it.C. The latest finding of the sea science research.D. Adequate financial support from the government.CSome international students have few friends in their host country when they study overseas. One study in the United States found that 38% of foreign students said they had no close American friends. Communications specialist Elisabeth Gareis studied more than 450 foreign students in her study for the result. Elisabeth Gareis from Baruch College in New York said efforts on how to improve relationships between the two groups of students had not yet to be studied in detail. But she said these efforts should begin with the college or university, and that these institutions should work harder. “Institutions should create more opportunities which can promote the contact between the home students and the foreign students. And they can do that by, for example, organizing activities at the beginning of the academic year.” Ms. Gareis suggested activities such as taking walks, camping trips, and attending parties, sporting events or film festivals, etc. She said such activities should be held repeatedly to bring students together throughout the school term. Ms. Gareis also suggested that foreign students share housing with American students. Michigan State University is known for its programs for international students. Last year, about 5,900 students from 133 countries attended Michigan State. Peter Briggs directs the Office for International Students and Scholars at Michigan State. He said more foreign students are expected to register this week. Many students and community members are trained and prepared to help foreign students. The volunteers assist new students as they complete the government requirements and find their academic advisors. Mr. Briggs said the volunteers would also help the foreign students adapt to the local environment and make friends.He said that if the new students could make friends as they first set foot in the university, they would come to feel the life and study in the university more easy.43. According to Elisabeth Gareis, who plays the most important role in improving the relationships between foreign students and American students? A. Foreign students. B. American students.C.

Harper Collins in Britain has now signed this talented author following her phenomenal (非凡的) Internet success.Miss Gibbs, from Brixham, Devon, who is about to start studying English at Oxford University, is the first author to be discovered on Wattpad. Wattpad is an online library which allows subscribers (用户) to upload or read other peoples stories. Miss Gibbs also said Stephenie Meyers famous Twilight books had influenced her novel, The Dark Heroine. “I read the Twilight and did really enjoy it. At first, my parents were a bit opposed to my writing because I was staying up till 3 a.m. on school nights and they were worried that I might fall behind.”Miss Gibbs finished her book at the age of 16. She posted each chapter after she had written it on the Internet site, until she got to five chapters before the end when she stopped. “I had signed with an agent and he basically said, Dont post anymore so as to keep the readers anxiety. That was tough because I disappeared in the site for a year and there were a lot of fans asking where I was.

The UN General Assembly adopted the Declaration of the Rights of the Child on Nov. 20th, 1959 and the Convention on the Rights of the Child on Nov. 20th, 1989. The 1990 World Summit (峰会) for Children in Copenhagen, Denmark, set standards aimed at boosting childrens health and education. In May 2002, the Special Session of the UN General Assembly on Children adopted an outcome document, A World Fit for Children, which focused on four key priorities (优先权): promoting healthy lives, providing education, protecting children against abuse, exploitation and violence, and fighting HIV/AIDS.
