A man sat at a metro station in Washington D.C. and started to play the violin; it was a cold January morning. He played six pieces for about 45 minutes. During that time, since it was rush hour, 1,100 people went through the station, most of them on their way to work.
Three minutes went by, and a middle-aged man noticed there was musician playing. A few minutes later, someone leaned against the wall to listen to him. They stopped for a few seconds, and then hurried up to meet their schedule.
The one who paid the most attention was a 3-year-old boy. His mother followed him along, hurried, but the kid stopped to look at the violinist. Finally, the mother pushed hard, and the child continued to walk, turning his head all the time. This was repeated by several other children. All the parents, without exception, forced them to move on.
In the 45 minutes the musician played, only 6 people stopped and stayed for a while. About 20 gave him money, but continued to walk their normal pace. He collected $32. When he finished playing and silence took over, no one noticed it. No one applauded（鼓掌）, nor was there any recognition.
No one knew this, but the violinist was Joshua Bell, one of the most talented musicians in the world. He had just played one of the most beautiful pieces ever written, on a violin worth 3.5 million dollars.
Two days before his playing in the subway, Joshua Bell sold out at a theatre in Boston where the seats averaged $100.
This is a real story. Joshua Bell’s playing in the metro station was organized by the Washington Post as part of a social experiment.
One of the possible conclusions from this experience could be: If we do not have a moment to stop and listen to one of the best musicians in the world playing the best music ever written, how many other things are we missing
4. Why did few people stop to listen to Joshua Bell playing
A. People were in a hurry.
B. They were not interested in music.
C. It was too cold in the subway.
D. The performance was not good enough.
5. What did the parents do when children stopped to look at the violinist
A. They would applaud for the performance.
B. They would urge them to continue walking.
C. They would stop to enjoy the music.
D. They would give him some money.
6. Why did Joshua Bell play in the metro station
A. To make more money.
B. To practise his skills in playing music.
C. To made an advertisement for his concert.
D. To find out people’s reaction under such a circumstance.
7. What is the purpose of the passage
A. To tell us the importance of music.
B. To show us how to play music.
C. To set us to think about our life.
D. To report a subway performance.

Your brain controls everything you do. It makes it possible for you to think, learn, create and feel; to blink(眨眼) and breathe and for your heart to beat--this fantastic control center is your brain. It is so amazing that a famous scientists once called it “the most complex (复杂的) thing we have yet discovered in our universe”.
Can this small gray organ(器官), which weighs less than one and a half kilos, really do so much Amazingly, your brain contains about 100 billion neurons(神经元)--it would take you over 3,000 years to count them all. Believe it or not, the activity in your brain never stops. Your neurons create and send more messages than all the phones in the world. And although one neuron creates only a little electricity, all your neurons together can produce enough electricity to power a light bulb(灯泡).
So exactly how fast does your brain work Well, imagine this: a bee lands on your foot. Neurons in your skin send this information to your brain at a speed of more than 240 kilometers per hour. Your brain then uses other neurons to send the message back to your foot to shake the bee off quickly. These neurons can send this information at more than 320 kilometers per hour. No computer has your brain’s unbelievable ability to deal with the amount of information coming from your eyes, ears and other sensory organs.
But how does your brain allow you to learn things that you will use in the future The structure(结构) of your brain changes every time you have a new thought, remember or learn something. For example, riding a bike seems impossible at first, but soon your are able to do it. How As you practise, your brain sends “bike riding” message again and again. Soon, the actions are learned and you are able to ride a bike easily from then on.
8. From the passage we know that neurons ______.
A. receive messages very slowly B. are only found in your skin
C. send messages to your brain D. need electricity to work
9. In paragraph 3, the writer mentions computers to ______.
A. compare them with the human brain B. show how fast computers have become
C. say that computers have no abilities D. ask people to use computers more
10. When you have a new thought, ______.
A. your brain will power a light bulb B. your heart beats fast
C. you remember something D. the structure of your brain changes
11. The article is mainly about ______.
A. all the steps when your brain learns things
B. what an unbelievable organ the human brain is
C. how the brain makes people smarter than computers
D. the things you can do to make your brain work faster
D
At the beginning of my Senior Two, I received my letter from the New York University (NYU) exchange program, and I was very relieved (如释重负的). I finally had the chance to take high level courses, experience college student life, and gain some extra credit. My aim was to learn the basics of accounting, economics, marketing, and psychology.
When I arrived, I found that there were only 30 students in the program. I was so excited, but also nervous. I was worried that I would not make friends in my new environment. However, I turned out to be totally wrong. NYU hosts free events every week, giving students the chance to meet new people and explore New York City. My favorite events were the Broadway show trips. But there were always a limited number of spots. Therefore, I had to sign up online as soon as I received the reminder and hope that I would be chosen to go.
This summer, I have watched ten Broadway shows, including To Kill a Mockingbird, Aladdin, and Frozen. Actually, I was fully attracted by the shows. Watching a performance almost every week was so amazing. On the way to the different shows, I always met someone new and we’d often chat about our lives. I was so thankful for making so many new friends.
By the time the shows were finished, it was usually late at night. However, I wasn’t scared as Times Square was always so busy, filled with people and lights. This summer was the best ever and I certainly caught a glimpse (一瞥) into college life at NYU. Surprisingly, it is not as scary as I thought.
12. Who might be the author of this text
A. A college student. B. A high school student.
C. A high school teacher. D. A student’s parent.
13. What made the author anxious when arriving at New York
A. ’ The difficult courses. B. The challenging program.
C. The trouble in making friends. D. The strict and serious teachers.
14. Why are the Broadway shows mentioned in paragraph 3
A. To introduce some Broadway shows.
B. To show the author’s performance skills.
C. To attract people to watch Broadway shows.
D. To express the author’s appreciation for the program.
15. What can be the best title for the text
A. A Taste of NYU College Life B. An Exploration in New York
C. The Amazing Courses at NYU D. The Attractive Shows of Broadway

A man sat at a metro station in Washington D.C. and started to play the violin; it was a cold January morning. He played six pieces for about 45 minutes. During that time, since it was rush hour, 1,100 people went through the station, most of them on their way to work.
Three minutes went by, and a middle-aged man noticed there was musician playing. A few minutes later, someone leaned against the wall to listen to him. They stopped for a few seconds, and then hurried up to meet their schedule.
The one who paid the most attention was a 3-year-old boy. His mother followed him along, hurried, but the kid stopped to look at the violinist. Finally, the mother pushed hard, and the child continued to walk, turning his head all the time. This was repeated by several other children. All the parents, without exception, forced them to move on.
In the 45 minutes the musician played, only 6 people stopped and stayed for a while. About 20 gave him money, but continued to walk their normal pace. He collected $32. When he finished playing and silence took over, no one noticed it. No one applauded（鼓掌）, nor was there any recognition.
No one knew this, but the violinist was Joshua Bell, one of the most talented musicians in the world. He had just played one of the most beautiful pieces ever written, on a violin worth 3.5 million dollars.
Two days before his playing in the subway, Joshua Bell sold out at a theatre in Boston where the seats averaged $100.
This is a real story. Joshua Bell’s playing in the metro station was organized by the Washington Post as part of a social experiment.
One of the possible conclusions from this experience could be: If we do not have a moment to stop and listen to one of the best musicians in the world playing the best music ever written, how many other things are we missing
4. Why did few people stop to listen to Joshua Bell playing
A. People were in a hurry.
B. They were not interested in music.
C. It was too cold in the subway.
D. The performance was not good enough.
5. What did the parents do when children stopped to look at the violinist
A. They would applaud for the performance.
B. They would urge them to continue walking.
C. They would stop to enjoy the music.
D. They would give him some money.
6 Why did Joshua Bell play in the metro station
A. To make more money.
B. To practise his skills in playing music.
C. To made an advertisement for his concert.
D. To find out people’s reaction under such a circumstance.
7. What is the purpose of the passage
A. To tell us the importance of music.
B. To show us how to play music.
C. To set us to think about our life.
D. To report a subway performance.

Your brain controls everything you do. It makes it possible for you to think, learn, create and feel; to blink(眨眼) and breathe and for your heart to beat--this fantastic control center is your brain. It is so amazing that a famous scientists once called it “the most complex (复杂的) thing we have yet discovered in our universe”.
Can this small gray organ(器官), which weighs less than one and a half kilos, really do so much Amazingly, your brain contains about 100 billion neurons(神经元)--it would take you over 3,000 years to count them all. Believe it or not, the activity in your brain never stops. Your neurons create and send more messages than all the phones in the world. And although one neuron creates only a little electricity, all your neurons together can produce enough electricity to power a light bulb(灯泡).
So exactly how fast does your brain work Well, imagine this: a bee lands on your foot. Neurons in your skin send this information to your brain at a speed of more than 240 kilometers per hour. Your brain then uses other neurons to send the message back to your foot to shake the bee off quickly. These neurons can send this information at more than 320 kilometers per hour. No computer has your brain’s unbelievable ability to deal with the amount of information coming from your eyes, ears and other sensory organs.
But how does your brain allow you to learn things that you will use in the future The structure(结构) of your brain changes every time you have a new thought, remember or learn something. For example, riding a bike seems impossible at first, but soon your are able to do it. How As you practise, your brain sends “bike riding” message again and again. Soon, the actions are learned and you are able to ride a bike easily from then on.
8. From the passage we know that neurons ______.
A. receive messages very slowly B. are only found in your skin
C. send messages to your brain D. need electricity to work
9. In paragraph 3, the writer mentions computers to ______.
A. compare them with the human brain B. show how fast computers have become
C. say that computers have no abilities D. ask people to use computers more
10. When you have a new thought, ______.
A. your brain will power a light bulb B. your heart beats fast
C. you remember something D. the structure of your brain changes
11. The article is mainly about ______.
A. all the steps when your brain learns things
B. what an unbelievable organ the human brain is
C. how the brain makes people smarter than computers
D. the things you can do to make your brain work faster

At the beginning of my Senior Two, I received my letter from the New York University (NYU) exchange program, and I was very relieved (如释重负的). I finally had the chance to take high level courses, experience college student life, and gain some extra credit. My aim was to learn the basics of accounting, economics, marketing, and psychology.
When I arrived, I found that there were only 30 students in the program. I was so excited, but also nervous. I was worried that I would not make friends in my new environment. However, I turned out to be totally wrong. NYU hosts free events every week, giving students the chance to meet new people and explore New York City. My favorite events were the Broadway show trips. But there were always a limited number of spots. Therefore, I had to sign up online as soon as I received the reminder and hope that I would be chosen to go.
This summer, I have watched ten Broadway shows, including To Kill a Mockingbird, Aladdin, and Frozen. Actually, I was fully attracted by the shows. Watching a performance almost every week was so amazing. On the way to the different shows, I always met someone new and we’d often chat about our lives. I was so thankful for making so many new friends.
By the time the shows were finished, it was usually late at night. However, I wasn’t scared as Times Square was always so busy, filled with people and lights. This summer was the best ever and I certainly caught a glimpse (一瞥) into college life at NYU. Surprisingly, it is not as scary as I thought.
12. Who might be the author of this text
A. A college student. B. A high school student.
C. A high school teacher. D. A student’s parent.
13. What made the author anxious when arriving at New York
A. ’ The difficult courses. B. The challenging program.
C. The trouble in making friends. D. The strict and serious teachers.
14. Why are the Broadway shows mentioned in paragraph 3
A. To introduce some Broadway shows.
B. To show the author’s performance skills.
C. To attract people to watch Broadway shows.
D. To express the author’s appreciation for the program.
15. What can be the best title for the text
A. A Taste of NYU College Life B. An Exploration in New York
C. The Amazing Courses at NYU D. The Attractive Shows of Broadway
