You cant be surprised when literally every Los Angeles tour book lists it at the top of their lists.If a museum is a place to display historically relevant objects of either artistic or scientific value, it stands for opposite style; very little of its art has aesthetic(美学的) value.The Los Angeles Municipal Art GalleryThe Las Angeles Municipal Art Gallery is, according to their website, the longest running institution in Los Angeles devoted only to exhibiting art. It focuses primarily on displaying works from Los Angeles artists. They feature outstanding artists as well as artists who submit work through an open call.The Vincent Price Art MuseumVincent Price was most known for his various roles in horror film(恐怖片), but his hobby was studying art history and building an art collection. In the 1950s, he recognized how students of the college could benefit from more opportunities to see art on their campus.So far, the museum named after him has grown to include a much larger collection. Currently, it regularly exhibits student works as well.The Underground MuseumThe Underground Museum was established in 2012 by Noah Davis, who dreamed of bringing “museum-quality art to Arlington Heights, In its first exhibit, Davis recreated famous pieces of art because no museums were willing to lend their works.In 2015, the Underground Museum began cooperating with MOCA, setting up an exchange where Davis would organize exhibits with works from MOCAs permanent collection.21.

On my off-chemo weeks I would go out for a walk around my neighborhood, with a cap on to protect my chemo-bald head from the sun。One afternoon I was walking past a house several doors down from mine: the family who lived there were people with whom I had aHi, how are you doing? kind of acquaintance. But we never really introduced ourselves to each other. This day the man was out working in his yard and as I walked by, he came out to thestreet and stopped me, saying I want you to know that my wife and I understand that you are going through some kind of illness and that we are praying for you.I was so touched, and tears came to my eyes, I thanked him for his kind words and then introduced myself. His name was Melvin and his wife was Michelle. A few days later, they stopped by my house and gave me a little basket of inspirational books along with some tea. Again I thanked them for their kindness. Melvin then said that if there was anything they could do to help me, please let them know. I timidly said, Well, Id like someone to cut the back of my yard. Its got quite overgrown and Im not able to do anything with it right now. He said that he would be happy to do so.It was a Friday and he came down with his riding mower(割草机) and cut not only the back part, but the front as well and even the edging(边缘) too! One of his neighbors also came along to help! When I went out to thank him, he said that whenever he cut his own yard, he would be sure to come down and cut mine too.True to his word, he did so every 2-3 weeks until I was done with the chemo and had got back enough strength to start doing it myself again. What a gift they were during this difficult time in my life, and how grateful I am for their constant kindness.24. Why did Melvin stop the author?A. To offer the author some books and tea.B.

Sharing More Than We Can OfferD. Following Melvin to Act in KindnessCNow, some students in the US have found a new way to discover and release their inner ereativity-building startups(新兴公司). Instead of just focusing on their studies, students are also building companies that not only look great on their resumes(个人简历), but put to use the skills they re learning in the classroom.Jessica Ekstrom, founder of Headbands of Hope, says that college is the perfect time to run a startup. In an article for E, she points out the abundance of resources contained in a college.When youre on a college campus, professors are filled with knowledge and experience to help you, she wrote.The free consulting I got from professors answered all the questions I had about starting a business and taking my first steps.That doesnt mean startups are a golden ticket to success, however. According to a study by Shikar Ghosh, a professor at Harvard, three out of every four startups fail to retum funds to their investors. Despite those drawbacks, students are still throwing their hats into the startup ring.Kathrina Manalac, a San Francisco startup promoter, says college startups arent easy. The best way to learn is to do it, Manalac told The Atlantic. Its really difficult to do while youre in school because of the time commitment(投入)they both require. Most successful tech companies started out as side projects, Manalac said. While youre in college, find out how to make the best of that time.University of Michigans Benny Wang is one of the students taking a risk and starting their own companies while still in school. He founded Delivice, which aims to deliver fresh food directly to the doorsteps of students. Students are able to look through all the store goods from the comfort of their home, and then the food is delivered by Delivices drivers.Theres a lot of hard hours and a lot of sleepless nights, Wang told Concentrate Media. But I think its worth it.28. Whats Jessica Ekstroms attitude towards startups in college?A. Indifferent.B. Doubtful.C. Favorable.D. Contradictory.29. What does the underlined part in paragraph 4 mean?A. Participating in startups actively.B. Giving up running startups gradually.C. Being forced to drop out of startups.D. Being uncertain about how to operate startups.30. What can we know about Benny Wang?A. He got much help from professors.B. He failed to return funds to his investors.C. He founded a delivery company.D. He regretted having made efforts.31. Whats the authors purpose in writing the passage?A. To persuade readers to run startups.B. To introduce to readers a trend among the US students.C. To remind readers of the drawbacks of startups in college.D. To inform readers of an efficient way to succeed.DPeople in possession of a dog were less likely to have or die from cardiovascular(心血管的)disease during the 12 years covered by the study, according to the study published in Scientific Reports. The impact was greatest for single people, said Mwenya Mubanga, an author of the paper from the universitys Department of Medical Sciences and the Science for Life Laboratory.Dog ownership was especially significant as a protective factor in persons living alone, which is a group previously reported to be at higher risk of cardiovascular disease and death, said Mubanga. Perhaps a dog may stand in as an important family member in the single households.The researchers examined seven national databases in Sweden, including two that track dog ownership, and focused on people aged 40 to 80. Single dog-owning adults who lived alone were 11 percent less likely to develop heart disease afterwards and 33 percent less likely to die than non-dog owners, the analysis found.Its not clear exactly how the dogs helped prevent heart disease, or whether getting one directly led to better health, warned Tove Fall, the senior author of the paper and associate professor in epidemiology at Uppsala University. Its possible that dog owners are healthier and more active before they get a dog companion, she said.We know that dog owners in general have a higher level of physical activity, which could be one explanation for the observed results, said Fall. Other explanations include an increased well-being and social contacts or effects of the dog on the bacterial microbiome(细菌微生物) in the owner.32. whats the effect of having a dog companion according to the study?A. It may put single people at higher risk of cardiovascular disease.B. It may reduce the risk of people developing cardiovascular disease.C. It completely changes the physical and mental condition of the dog owners.D. It makes no difference to the health of those who live with their family.33. What can we learn from paragraph 3?A. Tracking dog ownership is necessary to cure heart disease.B. People aged 40 to 80 are most likely to catch a heart disease.C. Single dog-owning adults may die earlier without their dogs.D. Dog ownership can prevent single dog-owning adults from heart disease.34. We can infer from the text that Tove Fall_.A. knows the way dogs help prevent heart diseaseB. believes a dog companion will surely contribute to better healthC. thinks bacterial microbiome will greatly benefit dog ownersD. agrees owning a dog may increase the level of physical activity35. Whats the text mainly about?A. Living alone may lead to cardiovascular disease.B. Analyzing health records is of great significance.C. Having a dog makes a difference to peoples health.D. Preventing cardiovascular disease is more important.第2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。Effective time management can reduce your stress, which means youre more relaxed, focused and able to complete your tasks on time.
