But a cleaner who works in the Tate Gallery in London isnt able to tell the difference.The woman,whose name isnt known,mistook a work of art by the German painter Gustav Metzger for a bag of rubbish,and threw it out with other bags.The plastic bag,which contained pieces of paper and cardboard,was later recovered outside the gallery,but the artist thought that it was too damaged to be put on show again.78yearold Mr Metzger explained that the exhibit,which he said was a copy of a similar work he had created in 1960,was meant to show that all art is temporary and “finite (有限的)”Embarrassed officials at the museum said that they had had to call a meeting with cleaners to explain which things should not be touched.They would not say whether Mr Metzger would be paid any compensation for the incident.However,to make absolutely sure the same thing would not happen again,they decided to cover Mr Metzgers work every evening with a colored cloth.In this way the cleaners arriving after the gallery had been closed to the general public would realize they should not touch it.This is not the first time that museum cleaners have had trouble distinguishing exhibits from rubbish.In 2001,in another London gallery,a cleaner threw away a work by the wellknown British artist Damien Hirst.It was an arrangement of empty beer bottles,coffee cups,and overflowing ashtrays,which were meant to indicate the chaos in the life of an artist.However,cleaners dont always throw things away sometimes they clean them! This was the case with a dirty bath,which was on show in a gallery in Germany. Without asking what the bath was doing in the gallery,the cleaners simply scrubbed（擦洗）it clean.The officials of the museum covered Mr Metzgers work so that Athe visitors couldnt get close in the eveningBthe cleaners wouldnt make the same mistakeCthey could get recovered soonDthey would return to normal25. Which of the following is NOT true?APeople have different opinions on modern art.BA work of Damien Hirst was thrown away by a cleaner in 2001.CMr Metzger would be paid much compensation.DSome modern works are about the chaos of an artists life.26The last paragraph is written to show that Acleaners cant always differ exhibits from rubbishBcleaners often make exhibits as clean as possibleCexhibits are usually difficult to cleanDexhibits are not always so beautiful27Whats the best title of the passage?AModern art shouldnt be cleanedBCleaners mistake modern art for rubbishCWhat makes a great work of artDCleaners dont always throw things awayCMy name is Deirdre Veneracion and I am a paraglider pilot.Ive been paragliding since I was 11.My dad and I arrive at our local fly site on a June morning. We meet our instructor and spend the first 20 minutes watching the wind cycles. I go through my pre-flight steps and turn on my radio. At last, I take a step and feel the ground under me fall away. I feel the pressure of my weight on the canopy (伞衣). After 15 minutes of playing with the wind, my father radios me from the place where he is about to take off. “How is the wind?” “Perfect!” I say. Dad takes off behind me. I have done almost 100 flights and yet every flight amazes me just as much or even more than my first. I love the unpredictability of each flight. Every flight is different. After 15 minutes, I decide to land.Now, Im over a rice field. It is a much smaller landing than most landing zones but its possible. Out of nowhere, I feel my canopy become unstable (不稳定的). It loses pressure and falls directly in front of me. I am falling. I have butterflies in my stomach. I pull my brake line, in the hope that my wing will get pressure again but it doesnt. I look towards my dad and see that he is also in trouble. Its as if we were inside a washing machine being thrown up and down. I wont make it to the landing zone in front of me. To my right is a narrow stream with hardly any water in it. I make my decision: the narrow stream is my best chance of landing safely. As I touch down, I check on my dad and am glad to hear that he is fine. Local villagers come to check on me but, surprisingly, I am uninjured.This is one of those times when we are reminded that no preparation can prevent Mother Nature from surprising us. 28. What does the author do before taking off?A. She has a talk with her father. B. She gives instructions.C. She turns off the radio. D. She watches the weather.29. What does the attraction of paragliding lie in the authors eyes?A. The pleasant wind. B. The uncertainty of each flight.C. The excitement of landing. D. The success of each flight. 30. What kind of feeling does the underlined sentence in Paragraph 5 probably show?A. Luck. B. Happiness. C. Anger. D.Nervousness.31. What happens in the process of the authors landing?A. She changes her mind about the landing site. B. She asks her dad for help.C. She sees a washing machine below. D. She hurts herself.Cities are likely to be affected by overheating, thanks to something called the urban heat island effect. Cities tend to be short of trees, which provide shade, and they are covered with black pavement, which absorbs heat from the sun. Think of how it feels to wear a dark shirt versus a white shirt on a sunny day. A black shirt absorbs light, heating you up. But a white shirt reflects light, keeping you cool.The average temperature in a city of a million or more people can be more than 5 degrees F hotter than surrounding areas. That extra 5 degrees can turn a hot day from uncomfortable to deadly. As temperatures rise, cities will be an especially dangerous place to be during a heat wave. To protect public health, city officials are going to make the city cooler.As part of that effort, Los Angeles is coating its roads in CoolSeal, a gray paint that keeps streets and parking lots 10 degrees cooler than black asphalt（沥青）. It will help Angelinos save money during the summer, when air conditioning sends power bills soaring. And it will save lives by lowering temperatures and improving air quality. Hot weather worsens air pollution by turning car exhaust into smog, which can make life miserable for people with asthma（哮喘）and other breathing problems.Of course, LA will have to do more than paint over a few streets to cool off the city. Angelinos will also need to plant more trees and apply white paint to rooftopsat least those not already covered in solar panels. While LA is a pioneer of reflective streets, other cities, like New York, are already experimenting with reflective roofs or, like Melbourne, lowering the temperature by planting trees. LA is hardly alone in its effort to stay cool.“This is an urgent challenge, and its much bigger than one person,” said Mayor Garcetti in a recent statement. “Climate change is a fact of life that people in Los Angeles and cities around the world live with every day.”32. Which of the following contributes to the urban heat island effect?A. Furnishing every house with air conditioners.B. Covering the streets with white paint.C. Applying reflective paint to rooftops.D. Planting more trees in the streets.33. What should the city officials emphasize during hot summer?A. When to cut off the electricity supply. B. Where to wear a white shirt. C. Why to coat the roads with black paint D. How to make the city cooler.34. What benefit can people gain from the use of CoolSeal? A. Making life easier and more comfortable. B. Promoting the sale of air conditioners. C. Increasing the indoor activities. D. Reducing the number of cold days.35. Whats the main idea of the passage? A. More and more countries begin to plant trees in the streets. B. L.A. calls on people to fight against global warming. C. L.A. adopted many approaches to fight against the heat. D. L.A. is painting its streets white to keep the city cool.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。There was a park near my home. But I didnt go there very often.
