Russia has declared plans for its first floating hotel, 217 miles above earth, and it is something of an offering with good service. Hosting just seven guests in a four cabins, the accommodation will boast huge windows with views back to earth and tasty microwave meals will be served instead of the ones often used by astronauts. Just getting there will be an adventure in itselfit will take two days aboard a Soyuz rocketand it wont exactly be a budget holiday: A five-day stay will cost you100, 000 to500, 000 for your journey. The hotel is due to open by 2016 and, according to those behind it, will be far more comfortable than the International Space Station (ISS) used by astronauts and cosmonauts. In the weightlessness of space, visitors can choose to have beds that are either vertical(垂直的) or horizontal. Tourists, who will be accompanied by experienced crew, will dine on food prepared on Earth and sent up on the rocket, to be reheated in microwave ovens. Many kinds of delicacies will be available. Iced tea, mineral water and fruit juices will be available, but alcohol will be strictly prohibited. Toilets will use flowing air instead of water to move waste through the system. Waste water will be recycled. Sergei Kostenko, chief executive of Orbital Technologies which will construct the hotel, said: “Our planned module inside will not remind you of the International Space Station. A hotel should be comfortable inside, and it will be possible to look at the Earth. The hotel will be aimed at wealthy individuals and people working for private companies who want to do research in space.” The hotel can also be used as an emergency bolthole (避难处) for astronauts aboard the International Space Station if there is a crisis. 1.Which can be the best title of the passage?

In order to answer this question, we must first examine whether people really want to preserve the historic feel of an area. Not all historical buildings are attractive. However, there may be other reasonsfor example, economic(经济的) reasonswhy they should be preserved. So, let us assume that historical buildings are both attractive and important to the majority of people. What should we do then if a new building is needed? In my view, new architectural styles can exist perfectly well alongside an older style. Indeed, there are many examples in my own hometown of Tours where modern designs have been placed very successfully next to old buildings. As long as the building in question is pleasing and does not dominate(影响) its surroundings too much, it often improves the attractiveness of the area. It is true that there are examples of new buildings which have spoilt(破坏) the area they are in, but the same can be said of some old buildings too. Yet people still speak against new buildings in historic areas. I think this is simply because people are naturally conservative(保守的) and do not like change. Although we have to respect peoples feelings as fellow users of the buildings, I believe that it is the duty of the architect and planner to move things forward. If we always reproduced what was there before, we would all still be living in caves. Thus, I would argue against copying previous architectural styles and choose something fresh and different, even though that might be the more risky choice.【小题1】What does the author say about historical buildings in the first paragraph? ASome of them are not attractive.BMost of them are too expensive to preserve.CThey are more pleasing than modern buildings.DThey have nothing to do with the historic feel of an area.【小题2】Which of the following is TRUE according to the author? AWe should reproduce the same old buildings.BBuildings should not dominate their surroundings.CNo one understands why people speak against new buildings.DSome old buildings have spoilt the area they are in.【小题3】By “move things forward”in the last paragraph, the author probably means “_” Adestroy old buildingsBchoose new architectural styleCput things in a different placeDrespect peoples feelings for historical buildings【小题4】What is the main purpose of the passage? ATo explain why people dislike change.BTo warn that we could end up living in caves.CTo argue that modern buildings can be built in historic areas.DTo admit how new buildings have ruined their surroundings.阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C、D）中，选出最佳选项，并在答题纸上将该选项标号涂黑。 【浙江省2014模拟冲刺试题】 AComputer games have been criticised for quite some time over a whole range of issues. Some people say they are overly violent and encourage violent behaviour particularly in children. Others say that they make children unsociable and are bad for their eyes. Some have even attributed falling standards of literacy and a lack of interest in reading on them. Now, however, it seems that computer games have also become a feminist(女权主义者) issue. Game manufacturers have, for some time, been looking to increase the number of female game players. The vast majority of computer games still sell to a mainly male market. Perhaps this is because the violent nature of many of the games appeals more to males or perhaps because many of the main characters in the games are male. Manufacturers attempts to produce more female characters increase their share of the female gaming market which has met with serious criticism from many womens groups. While heroines(女英雄) such as Lara Croft of the Tomb Raider game are seen as providing positive role models of strong women, many believe that the characters unrealistic Barbies are subconsciously setting unattainable standards in the minds of young women. Perhaps a stronger criticism is that although many games now include female characters, their role is often secondary and they support the main, male, action characters within the games. Of course the nature of many of the games remains violent and destructive and this in itself could well continue to put off female gamers. There are now, however, a number of web sites springing up on the World Wide Web to help women deal with this issue. Sites such as Game Girlz, Women Gamers and Game Gal offer game reviews, articles, discussion forums and even employment opportunities for women interested in becoming part of the rapidly expanding games industry. The games are reviewed by women from a very female perspective. Some rate the games from one to ten across a range of criteria which include the appearance of the female characters, the degree of intelligence attributed to them in the game and even the marketing attitude adopted by the company. The sites are obviously looking for games that move away from the very male dominated and violent nature of the majority of computer games. Many of them review games that are more constructive and developmental. Although the common fantasy themes of knights(骑士), witches and goblins（妖精） still exist within these games, the aims are often very different. Instead of destroying opposing armies，the aim of the game can be to make peace with them. With this increased degree of awareness and involvement from women in the games industry many positive changes could be made that could encourage more women and young girls to become enthusiastic about technology. Perhaps we may even find more male gamers moving away from the traditional violent and destructive games towards the more positive values promoted by these more feminine role models, after all Tomb Raider is still one of the most popular computer games on the market, but perhaps thats too much to ask.41.

Anybody who enjoys the cinema knows that when the final credits roll they include everyone who has contributed Director, Performers, Best Boy, Make Up, etc.It usually takes over a hundred people working a year to make a feature film, ten people to produce a pop promo (流行电视节目预告片) and around twenty to film a documentary. The reason so many people are involved is because films need to be made quickly and on budget.Many famous directors started by making films completely on their own Orson Welles, George Lucas, Robert Rodrigues. You may not have the special effects and big budgets of Hollywood but you do have time on your side. Use it to experiment and make a few mistakes. Its the way to learn. And thats where the fun begins. Go on; make a film.Now, lets talk about how to prepare for the shoot (拍摄).If youre making the film with other people, organize your cast and crew effectively. Make sure everybody knows their role and what day and time theyre needed. Give people specific jobs so they can become experts in their field. For example, a sound recordist listens to the sound through headphones as its being recorded, and holds an extra microphone if needed.A camera operator frames the picture, sets focus, checks the light and records the action.The editor “cuts” the picture together after its shot. A producer is the contact point for the film. He or she makes sure crew and cast are there on time, talks to the press and organizes the budget. A director has to make sure their vision is communicated. To do this everyone needs to be clear about what the director expects from each scene and each shot.You may also need a make-up-artist, a choreographer, a driver, etc. However, you can quite easily make your first film on your own. Make a schedule that says which shots are to be taken where and when (this is called a shooting schedule) and when youve completed a take, cross it off the list. Remember that you may want to shoot “out of sequence”, e.g. shoot the last scene first, and the first last. Similarly if the film begins and ends by a tree in the park, it may make sense to film both scenes while youre there.Continuity is particularly important in drama. Take a Polaroid camera and take photos to capture details. You may need to come back to a scene days later. When you decide your locations, consider whether you need permission to use the space, how noisy it will be and what the light will be like at the time of day you will need to use it. Is there power available? Are you likely to be interrupted?If youre making animation (动画片) or any computer generated stuff, have a space that you can control. You may need extra lights and you may need to leave work in progress. Make sure people living with you are aware whats happening. Animation needs a lot of undisturbed concentration and patience. Keep at it and itll pay off. Aardmann and Disney both started off at home experimenting with clay (黏土), pens and a camera.46. A director knows the purpose of each step of the work, but_ .A. he neednt tell others about thatB. other members ju
