in 1853.brought up in a religious and cultured atmosphere, van gogh was highly emotional and lacked selfconfidence.between 1860 and 1880, when he finally decided to become an artist, van gogh had worked unsuccessfully as a clerk in a bookstore and an art salesman.he remained in belgium to study art, determined to give happiness by creating beauty.one of his famous paintings is the potato eaters (1885)in 1886, he went to paris to join his brother tho.in paris, van gogh studied with cormon, later met pissarro, monet, and gauguin, and began to lighten his very dark palette(调色板)his nervous temperament made him a difficult companion and nightlong discussions combined with painting all day undermined his health.he decided to go south to arles where he hoped his friends would join him and help found a school of art.gauguin did join him but with bad results. near the end of 1888, an incident led gauguin to finally leave arles.van gogh ran after him with an open razor, was stopped by gauguin, but ended up cutting a part of his own ear off.van gogh then was sent to a mental (精神的) hospital for treatment.in may of 1890, he seemed much better and went to live in auverssuroise under the watchful eye of dr cachet.two months later he was dead, having shot himself “for the good of all”during his brief career he had sold one painting.van goghs finest works were produced in less than three years.his great fusion (融合) of form and content is powerful, dramatic and emotional, for the artist was completely absorbed in the effort to explain either his struggle against madness or his comprehension of the spiritual essence (精华) of man and nature.1before van gogh started to learn art, _.ahe couldnt do his work wellbhe was confident about himselfche did a good job in a bookstoredhe was one of the successful artists解析:选a细节理解题。根据第一段第三句可知,在van gogh决定成为画家之前,他的工作并不成功,也就是没能把自己的工作做好。2the underlined word “undermined” in paragraph 2 means “_”aharmedbimprovedcchallenged dpunished解析:选a词义猜测题。彻夜长谈及整日画画对健康不利,画线词意为“损害”,harm与其意思接近。3gauguin finally decided to leave van gogh probably because _.avan gogh didnt like gauguin at allbsomething was wrong with van goghcgauguin cut off one of van goghs earsdgauguin hated to be a teacher at the school解析:选b推理判断题。根据第二段最后三句可推知,van gogh精神上出现了问题,他想伤害gauguin,所以gauguin选择了离开。4what can we learn from van goghs works?ahis pride and kindness.bhis cruelty and failure.chis honesty and strength.dhis struggle and viewpoints.解析:选d细节理解题。根据文章最后一句可知,van gogh在他的作品中展现了他与精神错乱的抗争及他对人与自然的精神实质的理解,故d项正确。b“to another

video was playing, showing a little girl who was bald, lying in a hospital bed with tubes in her.” when their daughter got curious, smith and his wife crystal explained how medicine was what made the child in the video lose her hair.“without a second thought, ariana said, she can have some of my hair,” smith said. “thats when my wife told me that there are many organizations that we could donate it to.” the smiths chose “locks of love” to send arianas generous gift to a child with medical hair loss.a week later, ariana was taken to the family hairdresser where 10 inches was cut from her hair.“it was her first haircut,” smith told abc news. “she can be so selfless like that. her first reaction is how about me giving up something that i have, so a little girl can feel pretty?” smith

school. its also changing the way that information about students is collected and stored.schools have always kept track of information about students such as test scores, number of absences, behavior, and schoolwide graduation rates. but new technology is making it easier for schools to collect more detailed data (数据) about students. schools around the country are making use of digital tools such as homework sites and apps that track student progress in subjects. schools can also monitor and track how students behave in class. much of this data is collected and stored by the technology companies that create the programs, and not by the schools themselves.supporters of these digital programs say that they enable teachers and schools to identify areas in which students need help and that the programs make it easier for teachers to plan lessons more easily.but some parents and educators are concerned that the programs may not protect students privacy (隐私). they worry that information about their children is being collected and stored without their knowledge, and could possibly be sold to other companies. “schools are handing out student data to outside vendors (销售商) without parents knowing about it,” leonie haimson, cochairwoman of a group called the parent coalition for student privacy, told tfk. “we dont know what vendors are going to do with this data and how long they are going to store it for, and thats a concern.”at tfk, we promise to protect students privacy, which is why the time for kids classroom app does not collect personal information on students. teachers control student information and assign student ids and classroom passwords. all the information is cleared at the end of the school year.the government is taking steps to protect students privacy. many states, including new york and virginia, now have laws that limit the sharing of student data with companies. president barack obama recently announced new student digitalprivacy legislation (立法), which prohibits companies that work with schools from using student information for marketing or advertising purposes.what do you think? should tech companies be able to store data on students?12how does leonie haimson feel about the digital programs?ashe is used to them.bshe is worried about them.cshe looks forward to them.dshe doesnt care about them.解析:选b推理判断题。根据第四段leonie haimson说的“we dont know what vendors are going to do with this data and how long they are going to store it for, and thats a concern.”可知,她认为数字化程序无法保护学生隐私,因此她对这些程序十分担忧。13at the end of the school year, the information tfk has stored on students will _.abe sold to technology companiesbbe used for marketing purposescbe removed from its appdbe sent to teachers解析:选c细节理解题。根据倒数第三段的“we promise to protect students privacy . all the information is cleared at the end of the school year”可知,致力于保护学生隐私的tfk会在每个学期末清除与学生相关的一切信息。14the underlined word “prohibits” in paragraph 6 probably means “_”afrees bsavescprotects dprevents解析:选d词义猜测题。根据倒数第二段的“the government is taking steps to protect students privacy.”可知,奥巴马总统近日宣布的有关学生数字化隐私的法案就是要禁止学校与科技公司合作把学生信息用于营销或广告目的。15the main purpose of the text is to _.aeducate bdiscusscdescribe dpersuade解析:选b写作意图题。根据最后一段的问句“what do you think? should tech companies be able to store data on students?”可知,本文旨在讨论科技公司是否应该收集学生的个人信息。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。we usually think of bacteria as being dangerous and a cause of human
