His art and talent were recognized by almost no one. He suffered from a mental illness that led him to cut off part of his left ear in 1888 and to shoot himself two years later. But after his death, he achieved world fame. Today, Dutch artist Van Gogh is recognized as one of the leading artists of all time.英语 第2页 (共10页)Now, 150 years after his birth on March 30, 1853, Zundert, the town of his birth, has made 2020 The Van Gogh Year in his honour. And the Van Gogh Museum in Amsterdam, home to the biggest collection of his masterpieces, is marking the anniversary with exhibitions throughout the year. The museum draws around 1.3 million visitors every year. Some people enjoy the art and then learn about his life. Others are first interested in his life, which then helps them understand his art.Van Gogh was the son of a minister. He left school when he was just 15. By the age of 27, he had already tried many jobs including an art gallery(画廊) salesman and a French teacher. Finally in 1880, he decided to begin his studies in art.Van Gogh is famous for his ability to put his own emotions(情感) into his paintings and show his feelings about a scene. His style is marked by short, broad brush strokes(绘画笔法). Instead of trying to reproduce exactly what I have before my eyes, I use colour more freely, in order to express myself more powerfully, he wrote in a letter to his brother in 1888.Van Gogh sold only one painting during his short life. He depended heavily on support from his brother, an art dealer who lived in Paris. But now his works are sold for millions of dollars. His Portrait of Dr. Gachet sold for US $89.5 million in 1990. It is the highest price ever paid for a painting. I think his paintings are powerful and the brilliant colours in them are attractive to people, said a Van Goghs fan.21.

About five minutes later, the bus they wanted came along. They prepared to get on. Suddenly people rushed onto the bus and tried to push them out of the way. Someone shouted rude words about the foreigners. The bus conductor came to see what all the trouble was about. The three foreign gentlemen looked puzzled and ashamed. No one had told them about the British custom of lining up for a bus.英语 第4页 (共10页)Learning the language of a country isnt enough. If you want to ensure a pleasant visit, find out as much as possible about the manners and customs of your hosts. You will probably be surprised just how different they can be from your own.A visitor to India would do well to remember that people there consider it impolite to use the left hand for passing food at table. Also in India, you might see a man obviously shaking his head at another and consider that he is disagreeing. But in many parts of India shaking ones head means expressing agreement. Nodding your head when offered a drink in Bulgaria is likely to leave you thirsty. In that country you shake your head to express yesa nod means no.In Europe it is quite usual to cross your legs when sitting, talking to someone, even at an important meeting. Doing this when meeting an important person in Thailand, however, could cause offence(冒犯). It is considered too informal an attitude for such an occasion. Also when in Thailand avoid touching the head of an adult.Attitudes to women vary a lot around the world. In Japan, for example, men usually plan evening entertainments for themselves and leave their wives at home.Knowing about customs and attitudes is useful when you are traveling, but you also need to know the language used to express different degrees of formality(礼节).29.

We all keep hearing that trains are slow, that they lose money, and that theyre dying .But this is far from the truth: in these days of expensive oil, the railways have become highly competitive with motorcars and planes. If you want to carry people or goods from place to place, they are cheaper than planes. And they have much in common with planes. A plane goes in a straight line and so does a railway. What is more, it takes you from the heart of a city into the heart of another. It doesnt leave you up as a plane does, miles and miles from the city center. It doesnt hold you up as a car does, in endless traffic jams, and a single train carry goods which a plane or a motorcar could never do.Far from being dead, the railways are very much alive. Modern railway lines give you a smooth, untroubled journey. Where else can you eat well, sleep in comfort, feel safe and enjoy the scene while you are traveling at speed at the same time? And we are only at the beginning, for we have just entered the age of super-fast trains, trains traveling at 150 miles an hour and more. Soon we will be wondering why we spent so much on motorcars we cant use because we have not enough money to buy the oil and planes we cant fly for the same reason.32Some people think the railways are unnecessary for many reasons except that .Aplanes and motorcars have taken the place of trains Boil is expensive todayCtrains are slow Drailways lose money33According to the writer, which of the following is Not True?AIt is cheaper to travel by train than by plane.BThe railway station is usually at the center of the city.CWhen you get off the plane you will find yourself right in the city center.DNo motorcar or plane can carry as many goods as a train does.34The writer thinks that the railways, far from being dead, are very much alive because .Awe can have a smooth and untroubled journeyBwell not have enough money to fly in planesCwe can now travel in super-fast trainDall of the above35The best title for this passage may be” ”ANot the End but the BeginningBWhich is the Best: Train, Motorcar or PlaneCTrains are More Competitive than Motorcars or PlanesDOh, Super-fast Trains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。 36 But still there is a danger that grows every yearAirliners(客机) get largerSome airplanes can hold over 300 passengersAnd he air itself becomes more and more crowdedIf one giant airliner crashed into another in mid-air, 600 lives could be lost英语 第6页 (共10页)37 Air traffic controllers tell the pilot exactly when to turn, when to climb, and when to come downThe air traffic controllers around a busy airport like London-Heathrow may handle 2500 planes a dayNot all of them actually land at the airportAny plane that flies near the airport comes under the orders of the controllers there 38 Recently such a disaster almost happened 39 One, with 69 passengers, had come from Toronto, and the other, with 176 passengers, from Chicago, An air traffic controller noticed on his radar screen that the two planes were too close to each otherHe ordered one to turn to the right and to climbBut he made a mistakeHe ordered the wrong plane to do thisFifteen seconds later it flew directly in front of the second planeThey avoided each other by the smallest part of a secondThe distance between them was less than that of a large swimming pool 40 AEven a small mistake on their part could cause a disasterBTwo large jets were flying towards the airportCNowadays people like traveling more by air than by carDToday, air travel is far safer than driving a car on a bus motor-wayEThis is an example of the danger that grows every yearFIn a word, air travel is more dangerous, we should choose othersGFrom the moment an airliner takes off to the moment it lands, every movement is watched on radar screen第三部分：英语知识运用（共两节，满分45分）第一节：完形填空（共20小题；每小题1.5分，满分30分） 阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的四个选项（A,B,C和D）中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。英语 第7页 (共10页)To be a good teacher, you need some of the gifts of a good actor: you must be able to 41 the attention and interest of your students: you must be a 42 speaker, with a good, strong, 43 voice which is fully under your control: and you must be able to 44 what you are teaching in order to make its meaning clear. 45 a good teacher and you will see that he does not sit still 46 his class: he stands the whole time when he is teaching; he walks about, using his 47 , hands and fingers to help him in his explanations, and his face to express feelings. Listen to him, and you will 48 the loudness, the quality and the musical note of his voice always 49 according to what he is 50 about. The fact that a good teacher has some of the gifts of a good actor doesnt 51 that he will indeed be able to act 52 on the stage, for there are very important 53 between the teachers work and the actors. The actor has to speak words which he has learnt by heart he has to repeat exactly the 54 words each time he plays a certain part; 55 his movements and the ways in which he uses his voice are usually 56 beforehand. What he has to do is to make all these carefully learnt words and actions seem 57 on the stage.A good teacher 58 in quite a different way. His students take an active part in his 59 : they ask and answer questions; they obey orders; and if they dont understand something, they will say so. The teacher therefore has to suit his act to the needs of his students. He cannot learn his part by heart, but must 60 it as he goes along.41. A. payB. hold C. give D. know42.
