13、wall. It was cut long, so that it would let in as much light aspossible, and narrow, to keep out the bad weather. However, the slit let inmore wind than light. This is why it was called “the winds eye”. The wordwindow itself comes from two Old Norse words for wind and eye.Before windows were used, t

14、he ancienthalls and castles of northern Europe and Britain were dark and smoky. Theirgreat rooms were high, with only a hole in the roof to let out the smoke fromtorches and cooking fires.As time went on, people wanted morelight and air in their homes.

18、答案：D2Most people love Michael Jordan. Hesthe NBAs No. 1 player who can run fast, jump high and shoot well. All thesethings are true, but there are other truths about Michael that are not soeasily seen: his understanding of teamwork, his competitive spirit and his lovefor the game. It is these truths

19、 that form the deepest connection betweenMichael and me. After coaching him for eightseasons, I still wonder at Michaels love for the game that moves us, even inpractice games. I mean, he never takes a day off. One thing about Michael isthat he takes nothing about his game for granted. When he first

20、 came to the NBAback in 1984, his outside shooting was not perfect, and he began to practiceshooting hundreds of shots each day. In the end, he became a real three-pointshooter. Playing outstanding defense didnt come straight to him, either. Hehad to study his opponents, learn their usual moves and

21、then try hard to learnthe skills necessary to stop them. He worked extremely hard to perfect hisfootwork and his balance. Today, so many young people cometo the game with the thought that talent is all they need for success. Michaelthinks the other way. He knows his weaknesses, and for me, one of th

22、e signs ofMichaels greatness is that he has turned his weaknesses into strengths. Another of the qualities Irespect most about Michael is his performance on the court. Whilst he is verycompetitive, he always respects the other players, whether they are on his teamor on the other side. Often, he give

23、s a hand to an opponent who falls down. Heis definitely not the type of player who would try to build himself up bytearing someone else down. This is an act of leadership. Through hisoutstanding performance on the court, he has won love and respect from both histeammates and opponents. Every season,

24、 Michael makeshimself available to groups of children with serious diseases. He puts them atease, lets them have a laugh, and makes it possible for them to enjoybasketball. When Michael retires, I only hope that young players like GrantHill and Kobe Bryant will be influenced by his performance and b

25、y his sense offair play. I hope that people will remember him for much more than just hischampionship rings. Being Michaels coach has been a great joy. But moreimportantly, I consider Michael to be a friend.(1) 单选题The text is written by _.A、a basketball playerB、a basketball coachC、a basketball fanD、

27、nse at the very beginning.B、He was outstanding at playing defensefrom the very beginning.C、Playing outstanding defense wasimportant to him.D、Playing outstanding defense was notimportant to him.正确答案：A(4) 单选题Michael Jordan was all the following,except_.A、respecting other players on thecourtB、giving a

28、hand to an opponent who fallsdownC、having competitive spiritD、building himself up by tearing othersdown正确答案：D(5) 单选题Which of the following is NOT true?A、The coach regarded Michael Jordan as afriend.B、Many children with serious diseases canget a chance to meet Michael Jordan.C、Michael Jordan has infl

29、uenced many otherbasketball players through his love for the game.D、Michael Jordan doesnt think talent iseverything a person needs for success in playing basketball.正确答案：D3College is a newand different experience for me. Im away from home, so I have many things toadjust to, e.g. being on my own, tal

30、king with friendly people. These are someof the things I like about college. First of all, living at college gives me a sense of responsibility, ofbeing on my own. My parents arent around to say, No, youre not goingout tonight. or Did you finish your homework? Everything I dohas to be my decision, a

31、nd that makes me responsible for my own life. Duringthe second week I was at college, I had to go out and look for a bank where Icould open an account. And when I got to the bank, I had to decide whether tohave a current or savings account and whether or not to get a credit card.Decisions! Decisions

32、! Friendly people, thats another thing I like about college. On my firstday I came to Marymount University here in Virginia from New York, I was a bitconfused about where I was going. My mother and I drove in. We did not know thebuilding we were supposed to go to, but the guard was very nice. With a

33、 smile,he told us what building we were looking for and where we could park our car.My room was on the first floor of New Gerard, and I knew I had to go throughsome glass doors, but my mother and I didnt know which ones. Some students sawme and asked, Are you a new student? When they found out I was

34、looking for New Gerard, one said: Oh, just follow us; thats where weregoing. Even now I feel comfortable in the dorm because there are friendlypeople around to talk with. I do like a lot of things about college, but that doesnt mean I dontthink about things at home. Although I like college, I can st

35、ill get homesick:New York is a very good place, too!(1) 单选题The text isperhaps written by _.A、a new studentB、a new teacherC、a foreignreporterD、a foreignvisitor正确答案：A(2) 单选题What doesgives me a sense of responsibility in the first sentence ofParagraph 2 mean? It means _.A、I shall beresponsible for my p

36、arentsB、I shall beresponsible for my teacherC、I shall beresponsible for the schoolD、I shall beresponsible for myself正确答案：D(3) 单选题From Paragraph 3we know that _.A、the writerknew Marymount University quite wellB、the writerwas a student from VirginiaC、the writer cameto Marymount University aloneD、the w

37、riter likedhis/her dorm very much正确答案：B(4) 单选题What is NewGerard?A、Its astudents name.B、Its a teachersnameC、Its a dormsnameD、Its a schoolsname.正确答案：A(5) 单选题Which of thefollowing is NOT true?A、People inMarymount University are friendly.B、The writer likesthe new experience in the university.C、The write

38、r droveto Marymount University on the first day.D、The writeris not homesick正确答案：D4Every artist knows in his heart that heis saying something to the public. Not only does he want to say it well, but hewants it to be something which has not been said before. He hopes the publicwill listen and understa

39、nd-he wants to teach them, and he wants them to learnfrom him. What visual artists like painters want to teach is easy to make outbut difficult to explain, because painters translate their experiences intoshapes and colors, not words. They seem to feel that a certain selection ofshapes and colors, o

40、ut of the countless billions possible, is exceptionallyinteresting for them and worth showing to us. Without their work we shouldnever have noticed these particular shapes and colors, or have felt the delightwhich they brought to the artist. Most artists take their shapes and colorsfrom the world of

41、 nature and from human bodies in motion and repose; theirchoices indicate that these aspects of the world are worth looking at, thatthey contain beautiful sights. Contemporary artists might say that they merelychoose subjects that provide an interesting pattern, that there is nothing morein it. Yet even they do not choose entirely without reference to the characterof their subjects. If one painter chooses to paint a gangrenous (生坏疽的) leg and another a lake in moonlight, each of them isdirecting our attention to a certain aspect of the world. Each pa
