He gave us the glass and metal pyramid in the main courtyard, along with three smaller pyramids and a vast subterranean (地下的) addition to the museum entrance.Pei was the first foreign architect to work on the Louvre in its long history, and initially his designs were fiercely opposed. But in the end, the French and everyone else were won over. Winning the fifth Pritzker Architecture Prize in 1983, he was thought as giving the 20th century some of its most beautiful inside spaces and outside forms His talent and skill in the use of materials approach the level of poetry.After studying architecture at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology and Harvard, Pei set up his own architectural practice in New York in 1955.Designing the John F. Kennedy Presidential Library & Museum in 1964 established him as a name. His East Building of the National Gallery of Art in Washington in 1978 changed peoples ideas of a museum. The site was an odd trapezoid (梯形) shape. Peis solution was to cut it in two. The resulting building was dramatic, light and elegant one of the first crowd-pleasing cathedrals of modern art.Though known as a modernist, and notable for his forms based on arrangements of simple geometric (几何的) shapes, he once urged Chinese architects to look more to their architectural tradition rather than designing in a western style.In person, I.M. Pei was good-humored, charming and unusually modest. His working process was evolutionary, but innovation (创新) was never an intended goal.Stylistic originality is not my purpose, he said. I want to find the originality in the time, the place and the problem.（1）What can we learn about the result of redevelopment of the Louvre Museum?A.It was criticized by the French.B.It was a success.C.It made the Louvre Museum looks strange.D.It changed the function of the Louvre Museum.（2）What can we learn from the underlined sentence in paragraph 3?A.He is a master in applying materials.B.He is skilled in writing poems.C.He often combines poetry and construction.D.He gets inspiration from poetry in designing.（3）Whats the correct order of the following events?a.

Pei?A.Innovation was his first goal in design.B.He was talented and serious.C.He preferred western style to the east.D.He liked simple geometric shapes.3.阅读理解Despite what so many people would love to believe, NASA hasnt discovered any evidence of past or present intelligent life on Mars.

Over the past year, humanoid robots have been seen helping customers at the Mitsubishi Bank and even filling in for human science communicators at museums. Therefore, it is not surprising to hear that the country has the worlds first hotel that is staffed almost entirely by the Androids!The aptly (巧妙地) named Henn-na (strange in Japanese) Hotel which opened its doors on July 17 is located at Nagasakis Huis Ten Bosch theme park. It is the idea of Hideo Sawada, a Japanese businessman who is fascinated by the possibility of replacing humans with robots. His aim is to have this futuristic hotel be run mainly by the intelligent humanoids.Guests checking-in are welcomed by a family friendly English-speaking robot wearing a bow tie and bell-hop (侍者) hat. Though experienced at his job, he does request guests not to ask him a difficult question since he is after all, just a robot! Those seeking a more regular experience, can approach the human-like Japanese-speaking robot.When ready, visitors can request the robot porters to help carry belongings to their room. Those that need to stow away valuables can hand them to a helpful robot who will place them inside an individual safe box in exchange for a small fee. A one-foot-high concierge (管理人) is available to provide information about the hotels amenities (便利设施), nearby attractions, and even order a taxi if needed.So how much does it cost to live in this crazy cool hotel?
