Bristol Old Vic
When the Theatre Royal (now Bristol Old Vic) was built, electricity hadn’t been discovered. For over 250 years the people who have owned, worked inside and visited the theatre have kept records about their activity. These are kept safe at the University of Bristol Theatre Collection, and you’ll discover a range of documents which record the history of the theatre, from its foundation in 1764 up until the present day. Here are some of them.
BEGINNING
In 1764 businessmen Alexander Edgar and Thomas Symons suggested building a new theatre between Baldwin Street and the back of Coopers’ Hall in King Street. The estimated cost was f2, 000 to be split among 40 subscribers, but the building work cost more than expected. Owning shares allowed them to influence decisions about the theatre.
SILVER TICKET
Each of the original Bristol Old Vic shareholders was given a silver ticket that promised sight of any performance held at the theatre. As the holders were clever businessmen, they insisted that the silver tickets could be loaned or traded. This enabled them to make some extra money but made it extremely difficult for the theatre managers to keep track of who was allowed to see shows for free.
250TH BIRTHDAY
In May 2016, the theatre celebrated its 250th birthday! As the oldest continuously-working theatre in the English-speaking world, it deserved a proper party, so Bristol-based Limbic Cinema was hired to create a film of the theatre’s historical highlights which was projected (放映) onto the theatre itself.
1. Where can you find the three mentioned documents
A. At Baldwin Street.
B. At Coopers’ Hall in King Street.
C. At Bristol-based Limbic Cinema.
D. At the University of Bristol Theatre Collection.
2. How was the theatre’s 250th birthday celebrated
A. By creating a film about its history.
B. By building Bristol-based Limbic Cinema.
C. By releasing silver ticket in memory of the birthday.
D. By making a film projected in theatres across England.
3. What’s the purpose of the text
A. To compare the theatre and others.
B. To change people’s view on Bristol Old Vic.
C. To introduce some information of Bristol Old Vic.
D. To recommend a movie related to the theatre.

For many runners, a marathon can often be a challenge — but sometimes what gets a runner through the tough 26.2 miles is looking out into the crowd and seeing his or her loved one holding up a sign and shouting words of encouragement. For one mom, though, her loved one was a bit more hands-on.
While running the REVEL Big Cottonwood Marathon in Salt Lake City, Courtney Rich, a self-taught baker and mother of two, was beginning to run out of energy just yards from the end when she was suddenly joined by her 10-year-old daughter, Avery.
The touching moment, caught on video and posted on social media, shows Avery running to her mother’s side to support her as she approached the end of the race. Rich’s face lit up when Avery joined her and helped her cross the finish line.
Rich later said in the video’s caption that being joined by her daughter to finish the race was “a moment I hope neither of us ever forget”. Rich said that her daughter could tell she was struggling after a phone call near the end of the race. “She knew I had struggled the last few miles,” Rich said. “She saw tears in my eyes when I called on mile 24.”
In the video, Rich’s facial expression changes from tiredness to a smile after seeing her daughter emerge from the crowd to join her. Then, Rich and her daughter ran hand-in-hand to the finish line. “Nothing could have prepared me for the moment my 10-year-old daughter would jump out of the crowd and run with me to the finish line,” she said. When the race was done, the two hugged each other at the finish line. The video ends with a final caption, “And then she just held me. She held me.”
In the past, the REVEL Big Cottonwood Marathon has had other memorable moments of mothers caring for their children, but perhaps not as hands-on as this one.
4. What happened to Rich when she was coming to the finish line
A. She fell down all of a sudden.
B. She was far behind others.
C. She felt herself struggling.
D. She was interrupted by Avery.
5. How did Avery react to the accident
A. She helped Rich run to the finish line.
B. She tried to call for help at once.
C. She ran the rest in place of Rich.
D. She shouted encouraging words to Rich.
6. How did Rich feel about Avery’s response
A. Doubtful.
B. Content.
C. Concerned.
D. Expected.
7. What can be the best title for the text
A. A Mother Would Never Give Up On Her Marathon Dream
B. A Mother Encouraged Her Daughter To Pursue Her Dream
C. A Daughter Got Involved In Her Mother’s Race By Mistake
D. A Daughter Cheered For Her Mother By Joining In Her Race

Health organizations such as the UK’s national health services recommend that adults take 10 micrograms, or 400 international units (IU) of vitamin D every day, while the National Institutes of Health advise that most adults take 600 IU, with both bodies cautioning against taking more than 4,000 IU per day. Having too much vitamin D can cause a build-up of calcium (钙) in the blood, leading to symptoms such as nausea and kidney stones.
But Patrick J. LaRiccia at the University of Pennsylvania and his colleagues recently found that a daily dose (一剂) of 5,000 IU may reduce the risk of influenza-like symptoms. They wondered whether this higher-than-recommended dosage may also have other positive effects.
So the team asked 196 adults to take 5,000 IU of vitamin D3 every day for about nine months. The adults, aged 47 on average, were aware of the dose they were having. The researchers also analyzed the data of more than 1,900 people who weren’t given the 5,000 IU daily dose of vitamin D. However, they were free to take vitamin D supplements if they wished. Towards the end of the study, across this group, the average reported dose was 1,318 IU and the average age was 50.
Over 10 months, those on the 5,000 IU dose had a lower risk of being hospitalized due to any cause, and they had to visit the emergency room or be admitted to intensive care less than people in the other group. No participants reported side effects.
However, LaRiccia says the team can’t rule out the age difference as a possible cause of these results, with those in the high-dose group potentially avoiding hospital because they were on average three years younger. The nationalities of people in the two groups also differed, with fewer Hispanic and Latino people in the high-dose group, which may have affected the results.
“The findings are promising, but the study was relatively small and the study period was too short to monitor any long-term safety issues of such a high daily dose of vitamin D,” says JoAnn Manson at Harvard University.
8. How much vitamin D does National Institutes of Health recommend us to take daily
A. At least 10 IU. B. Less than 400 IU. C. Roughly 600 IU. D. Over 4000 IU.
9. How did the team carry out the study
A. By explaining the phenomenon. B. By referring to previous data.
C. By using supporting examples. D. By comparing and analyzing.
10. How many factors may have affected the results according to LaRiccia
A. One. B. Two. C. Three. D. Four.
11. What is JoAnn Manson’s attitude towards the study
A. Objective. B. Negative. C. Favorable. D. Uncertain.
D
Archaeologists in Egypt have unearthed a Sphinx statue (狮身人面像) with a smiley face near the Hathor Temple, one of the country’s best preserved ancient sites. The smiling Sphinx is much smaller than the famous Sphinx in Giza, which is 20 metres high. The stone work of art, believed to be a stylized representation of an ancient Roman emperor, was found inside a two-level tomb near the temple in southern Egypt.
Next to the beautifully and accurately carved Sphinx, researchers had found a Roman stone written in hieroglyph (象形文字). Once fully translated, the stone may unveil the identity of the sculpted ruler, who could be Emperor Claudius.
The smiling Sphinx is among a series of discoveries announced over the past few months. The country has uncovered major archaeological discoveries in recent months, primarily in the Saqqara cemetery (墓地) south of Cairo as well as in Giza, home to the only surviving structure of the seven wonders of the ancient world. Recently, Egypt announced the discovery of a hidden nine-metre passage inside the Great Pyramid of Giza, which may lead to the actual burial room of pharaoh (法老) Khufu, or Cheops. Further south, in Luxor, archaeologists had discovered a 1,800-year-old complete residential city from the Roman times.
Hathor Temple, about 500 kilometres south of the capital Cairo, was home to the Dendera Zodiac, a heavenly map which has been displayed at the Louvre in Paris for more than a century. Since Frenchman Sebastien Louis Saulnier took it out of the temple in 1922, Egypt has been attempting to get it back.
Some experts see such announcements as having more political and economic weight than scientific, as Egypt is counting on tourism to revive its vital tourism industry in a severe economic crisis. The government aims to draw in 30 million tourists a year by 2028.
12. What do we know about the smiling Sphinx
A. Its owner was confirmed as an ancient Roman ruler.
B. It has been the best-preserved Sphinx till now.
C. It is as high as 20 metres like the Sphinx of Giza.
D. It was discovered close to the Hathor Temple.
13. What does the underlined word “unveil” in paragraph 2 probably mean
A. Reveal.
B. Seek.
C. Deny.
D. Maintain.
14. What does paragraph 3 mainly talk about
A. The diversity of cultural relics in Egypt.
B. The discoveries made recently in Egypt.
C. The status of the Great Pyramid of Giza.
D. The new discovery about pharaoh Khufu.
15. What does Egypt expect most from the recent discoveries
A. Scientific progress.
B. Political position.
C. Economic advance.
D. Cultural exchange.

Mr. Barnes was a very wealthy man who lived in the early days in the United States. It was one of his chief pleasures to walk through the countryside near his home, and as he walked, he often noticed a particularly fine group of cattle. One day he stopped to visit the rancher (牧场主) who owned the cattle and purchased a cow from him with the agreement that the cow would be delivered to his house the following day.
The next day as Mr. Barnes was out for his morning walk, he saw a young boy trying his hardest to lead the cow over to Mr. Barnes’ field. The boy, who did not know Mr. Barnes, called to him, “Please sir, would you come and help me with this cow It is so stubborn!”
Mr. Barnes readily agreed and went over to help. As they walked along together, he asked the boy, “How much do you expect to get for delivering the cow ”
“I… I don’t know,” the boy said, “but I think I’ll get something because the people who are buying the cow live in that house, and those people are very kind to everyone.”
By now the stubborn cow was walking along nicely so Mr. Barnes excused himself and took a path through a wooded area that led to his back door. As soon as he got into the house, he gave one of his trusted workers a fifty-dollar bill and told him to give it to the boy who was delivering the cow. After the cow had been left at the house and the boy was returning to the ranch, Mr. Barnes went out again and met the boy on the road.
“Well, how much did you get ” asked Mr. Barnes.
“Five dollars,” answered the boy.

SILVER TICKET
Each of the original Bristol Old Vic shareholders was given a silver ticket that promised sight of any performance held at the theatre.

However, LaRiccia says the team can’t rule out the age difference as a possible cause of these results, with those in the high-dose group potentially avoiding hospital because they were on average three years younger. The nationalities of people in the two groups also differed, with fewer Hispanic and Latino people in the high-dose group, which may have affected the results.
“The findings are promising, but the study was relatively small and the study period was too short to monitor any long-term safety issues of such a high daily dose of vitamin D,” says JoAnn Manson at Harvard University.
8. How much vitamin D does National Institutes of Health recommend us to take daily
A. At least 10 IU. B. Less than 400 IU. C. Roughly 600 IU. D. Over 4,000 IU.
9. How did the team carry out the study
A. By explaining the phenomenon. B. By referring to previous data.
C. By using supporting examples. D. By comparing and analyzing.
10. How many factors may have affected the results according to LaRiccia
A. One. B. Two. C. Three. D. Four.
11. What is JoAnn Manson’s attitude towards the study
A. Objective. B. Negative. C. Favorable. D. Uncertain.
【答案】8. C 9. D 10. B 11. A
【解析】
【导语】本文是说明文。宾夕法尼亚大学的帕特里克·J·拉里西亚 (Patrick J. LaRiccia) 和他的同事最近发现，每日剂量5000 IU可能会降低出现流感样症状的风险，但他们想知道这种高于推荐剂量是否还会产生其他积极作用，于是进行了一项研究。文章主要介绍了这项研究。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段中“while the National Institutes of Health advise that most adults take 600 IU,(美国国立卫生研究院建议大多数成年人服用600 IU)”可知，美国国立卫生研究院建议我们每天服用大约600IU的维生素D，故选C。
【9题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段“So the team asked 196 adults to take 5,000 IU of vitamin D3 every day for about nine months. The adults, aged 47 on average, were aware of the dose they were having. The researchers also analyzed the data of more than 1,900 people who weren’t given the 5,000 IU daily dose of vitamin D.(因此，研究小组要求196名成年人每天服用5000IU维生素D3，持续约九个月。这些成年人平均年龄为47岁，他们知道自己服用的剂量。研究人员还分析了1900多名未每日服用5000IU维生素D的人的数据。)”可知，该团队通过比较和分析196名每天服用5000IU维生素D3的人和1900多名未每日服用5000IU维生素D的人的数据，由此可推知，该团队运用了分析和比较的方法来进行研究的，故选D。
【10题详解】
细节理解题。根据倒数第二段“However, LaRiccia says the team can’t rule out the age difference as a possible cause of these results, with those in the high-dose group potentially avoiding hospital because they were on average three years younger. The nationalities of people in the two groups also differed, with fewer Hispanic and Latino people in the high-dose group, which may have affected the results.(然而，LaRiccia表示，研究小组不能排除年龄差异是造成这些结果的可能原因，高剂量组的人可能会避免去医院，因为他们平均年轻三岁。两组人群的国籍也不同，高剂量组中西班牙裔和拉丁裔人群较少，这可能影响了结果)”可知，根据LaRiccia的说法，年龄和国籍这两个因素可能影响研究结果，故选B。
【11题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段““The findings are promising, but the study was relatively small and the study period was too short to monitor any long-term safety issues of such a high daily dose of vitamin D,” says JoAnn Manson at Harvard University.(哈佛大学的乔安·曼森 (JoAnn Manson) 表示：“研究结果令人鼓舞，但研究规模相对较小，研究周期也太短，无法监测每日如此高剂量维生素D的任何长期安全问题。”)”可知，JoAnn Manson认为该研究的结果令人鼓舞，但是有局限性，由此可推知，JoAnn Manson对这项研究的态度是客观的，故选A。
D
Archaeologists in Egypt have unearthed a Sphinx statue (狮身人面像) with a smiley face near the Hathor Temple, one of the country’s best preserved ancient sites. The smiling Sphinx is much smaller than the famous Sphinx in Giza, which is 20 metres high. The stone work of art, believed to be a stylized representation of an ancient Roman emperor, was found inside a two-level tomb near the temple in southern Egypt.
Next to the beautifully and accurately carved Sphinx, researchers had found a Roman stone written in hieroglyph (象形文字). Once fully translated, the stone may unveil the identity of the sculpted ruler, who could be Emperor Claudius.
The smiling Sphinx is among a series of discoveries announced over the past few months. The country has uncovered major archaeological discoveries in recent months, primarily in the Saqqara cemetery (墓地) south of Cairo as well as in Giza, home to the only surviving structure of the seven wonders of the ancient world. Recently, Egypt announced the discovery of a hidden nine-metre passage inside the Great Pyramid of Giza, which may lead to the actual burial room of pharaoh (法老) Khufu, or Cheops. Further south, in Luxor, archaeologists had discovered a 1,800-year-old complete residential city from the Roman times.
Hathor Temple, about 500 kilometres south of the capital Cairo, was home to the Dendera Zodiac, a heavenly map which has been displayed at the Louvre in Paris for more than a century. Since Frenchman Sebastien Louis Saulnier took it out of the temple in 1922, Egypt has been attempting to get it back.
Some experts see such announcements as having more political and economic weight than scientific, as Egypt is counting on tourism to revive its vital tourism industry in a severe economic crisis. The government aims to draw in 30 million tourists a year by 2028.
12. What do we know about the smiling Sphinx
A. Its owner was confirmed as an ancient Roman ruler.
B. It has been the best-preserved Sphinx till now.
C. It is as high as 20 metres like the Sphinx of Giza.
D. It was discovered close to the Hathor Temple.
13. What does the underlined word “unveil” in paragraph 2 probably mean
A. Reveal.
B. Seek.
C. Deny.
D. Maintain.
14. What does paragraph 3 mainly talk about
A. The diversity of cultural relics in Egypt.
B. The discoveries made recently in Egypt.
C. The status of the Great Pyramid of Giza.
D. The new discovery about pharaoh Khufu.
15. What does Egypt expect most from the recent discoveries
A. Scientific progress.
B. Political position.
C. Economic advance.
D. Cultural exchange.
【答案】12. D 13. A 14. B 15. C
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章介绍了埃及政府希望通过最近在考古学上的新发现促进旅游业的发展，从而拉动经济增长的事情。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段“Archaeologists in Egypt have unearthed a Sphinx statue (狮身人面像) with a smiley face near the Hathor Temple, one of the country’s best preserved ancient sites.”（埃及考古学家在埃及保存最完好的古遗址之一哈索尔神庙附近出土了一尊狮身人面像，上面有一个笑脸。）可知，微笑的狮身人面像是在哈索尔神庙附近发现的。故选D项。
【13题详解】
词义猜测题。根据第二段划线单词后“who could be Emperor Claudius”（他可能是克劳迪斯皇帝）可知，一旦完成翻译，这块石头可能会揭开雕刻统治者的身份，这个人很可能是克劳迪斯皇帝，推断reveal“揭示”和unveil意思一致，符合句意。故选A项。
【14题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第三段“The country has uncovered major archaeological discoveries in recent months, primarily in the Saqqara cemetery (墓地) south of Cairo as well as in Giza, home to the only surviving structure of the seven wonders of the ancient world. Recently, Egypt announced the discovery of a hidden nine-metre passage inside the Great Pyramid of Giza, which may lead to the actual burial room of pharaoh (法老) Khufu, or Cheops.”（近几个月来，埃及有了重大的考古发现，主要是在开罗南部的萨卡拉公墓和吉萨，吉萨是古代世界七大奇迹中唯一幸存的建筑。最近，埃及宣布在吉萨大金字塔内发现了一条长达9米的隐藏通道，这条通道可能通往法老胡夫的真正墓室。）可知，第三段主要介绍了最近在埃及的考古新发现。故选B项。
【15题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“Some experts see such announcements as having more political and economic weight than scientific, as Egypt is counting on tourism to revive its vital tourism industry in a severe economic crisis.”（一些专家认为，这类声明的政治和经济意义大于科学意义，因为埃及正指望旅游业在严重的经济危机中重振其至关重要的旅游业。）推断出，埃及对最近的发现最期待的希望能够拉动经济发展。故选C项。

根据上文“It’s all right to set high standards for yourself.(给自己定个高标准没什么大不了的。)”和下文“In addition, desiring to be perfect in everything you pursue can prevent your progress.(此外，追求完美的欲望会阻碍你的进步。)”可知，空处和上文形成转折关系，和下文并列，一起说明追求完美的不利之处。G项：However, falling short of your goals and expectations can make you feel worthless.(然而，达不到你的目标和期望会让你觉得自己毫无价值。)符合语境。故选G。

【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了被联合国教科文组织评为“美食之都”的亚洲城市——成都。
【36题详解】
考查动词的时态。句意：2010年，它成为第一个被联合国教科文组织评为“美食之都”的亚洲城市。根据下文的in 2010可知，本句的时态应该是一般过去时，所以空格处应该用提示词的过去式形式。故填became。
【37题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意：古老的寺庙、传统的小巷和历史悠久的建筑为你打开了一扇通往古代中国的窗户，带你进入一个过去令人印象深刻的美丽世界。分析句式结构可知，此处用非谓语动词作状语，又因为take和主语之间是主动关系，所以用现在分词作状语。故填taking。
【38题详解】
考查形容词。句意：转型为科技、创新和发展中心，这座城市有雄心勃勃的计划，要成为中国西南地区的科学城。分析句式结构可知，修饰名词应该用形容词，所以此处用提示词的形容词性形式ambitious作定语修饰名词plan表示“雄心勃勃的”计划。故填ambitious。

【40题详解】

【41题详解】
考查冠词。句意：成都最受欢迎的食物，如麻婆豆腐和火锅，是一场味觉盛宴。分析句意可知，此处是泛指“一场”味觉盛宴，且feast发音以辅音音素开头，所以用不定冠词a。故填a。
【42题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意：放在餐桌上的热源使一锅汤料沸腾，锅旁摆放着各种中国食品和食材，供食客放入热汤料中。分析句式结构可知，此处用非谓语动词作后置定语，又因为place和source之间是被动关系，所以用过去分词作后置定语。故填placed。

考查名词。句意：同上。根据上文a variety of和下文的are可知，此处应该用名词复数形式与 Chinese foodstuffs并列作主语。故填ingredients。
【44题详解】
考查动词不定式。句意：这次运动会不仅是展示成都体育精神、世界一流的基础设施、热情和组织能力的机会，也是促进友谊和跨文化理解的机会。分析句式结构可知，此处用动词不定式作后置定语修饰名词opportunity表示“做某事的机会”。故填to show。

Mr. Barnes was a very wealthy man who lived in the early days in the United States. It was one of his chief pleasures to walk through the countryside near his home, and as he walked, he often noticed a particularly fine group of cattle. One day he stopped to visit the rancher (牧场主) who owned the cattle and purchased a cow from him with the agreement that the cow would be delivered to his house the following day.
The next day as Mr. Barnes was out for his morning walk, he saw a young boy trying his hardest to lead the cow over to Mr. Barnes’ field. The boy, who did not know Mr. Barnes, called to him, “Please sir, would you come and help me with this cow It is so stubborn!”
Mr. Barnes readily agreed and went over to help. As they walked along together, he asked the boy, “How much do you expect to get for delivering the cow ”
“I… I don’t know,” the boy said, “but I think I’ll get something because the people who are buying the cow live in that house, and those people are very kind to everyone.”
By now the stubborn cow was walking along nicely, so Mr. Barnes excused himself and took a path through a wooded area that led to his back door. As soon as he got into the house, he gave one of his trusted workers a fifty-dollar bill and told him to give it to the boy who was delivering the cow. After the cow had been left at the house and the boy was returning to the ranch, Mr. Barnes went out again and met the boy on the road.
“Well, how much did you get ” asked Mr. Barnes.
“Five dollars,” answered the boy.

【答案】参考范文：
Mr. Barnes felt surprised when hearing the answer. “Only five dollars You must have gotten more than that,” Mr. Barnes said with certainty. “No, that’s what I was given, and that was plenty, don’t you think ” answered the boy with a happy smile and a little doubt. “No, I’m surprised it wasn’t more,” said Mr. Barnes. “I know Mr. Barnes well and he will give much more than five dollars. I believe that if you come back with me, you’ll get more than five dollars.”
The boy agreed, and they walked back to the house together. When they went in, Mr. Barnes called his workers and asked the boy to tell him who had given him the five dollars. “It was him,” the boy said, pointing to one of the workers. When the man realized his dishonesty had been discovered, he admitted it and felt embarrassed. Mr. Barmes demanded that he give the fifty dollars to the boy immediately. And he said to the man, “Your dishonesty has cost you your job and your good name. I hope you soon learn that dishonesty is not only very foolish but a terrible mistake.” And Mr. Barnes fired him on the spot.
