B Technology is threatening many jobs, but heres one you might not expect:actors. Technology in the entertainment business is on course to create digital actors who compete with live ones. Theres a scene in the film Blade Runner 2049 thats a miracle of modern technology. Harrison Ford plays a character named Deckard, who has aged normally since 1982s Blade Runner. Deckard reunites with a character named Rachael. In the earlier film , she was played by Sean Young, 58 now. But with the special effects she hadnt aged a bit. Fink, who has spent a long time doing special effects, says the film has made progress in replacing real actors with digital ones. It really started with extras(临时演员). In the film Superman Returns, Superman has to land a plane in a baseball stadium. “We had 200 extras, which was what we needed,” Fink says. “But there were 50,000 people in the baseball stadium everybody else was digital.” This advance in technology is saving film makers money but it hasnt been good for extras, who make hundreds of dollars a day. Film makers are getting closer to being able to create full performances of actors who are no longer alive. Darren Hendler, a manager from one filming company , says some big-name actors are preparing for a day when their life as performers will continue after their death. Handler says some perfomers spend millions digitally preserving themselves in the companys archive(档案库). Hendler and other experts say we are a long way from being able to get a great performance from a dead actor. But do audiences really want to watch dead actors? “All of us will leave the world and thats OK.” Fink says. “Let the new actors be seen. Dont hang on to something that no longer exists.”24. What do we know about the film Blade Runner 2049?A. It hires two famous but old actors.B. It tells about the effect of technology.C. It has won awards for its special effects.D. It creates a much younger image of an actress.25. What is Paragraph 3 mainly about?A. Effects of technology on extras. B. The increasing demand for extras.C. Ways of making big scenes in films.D. Changes film makers are experiencing.26. What can we learn from Paragraph 4?A. Actors performance skills are no longer important.B. Movie stars may be performing even after their death.C. Special effects make the quality of films improve a lot.D. Actors will lose their jobs because of advancing technology.27. What does Fink think of the actors preserving themselves digitally?A. It is unnecessary. B. It is worthwhile. C. It is reasonable. D. It is strange. C The Northwest Passage is a sea route that connects the Atlantic Ocean ( 大西洋) and the Pacific Ocean . For many centuries, it was looked at as a possible trade route but it has always been blocked by the Arctic (北极的)ice. Recently the ice has been melting (融化) at a very strong pace and experts think that the waterway might open up for business ships in the near future. Canadian scientists say that within the next twenty years the route could be open during the summer months. One of the main problems to overcome is the permanent ice sheets that do not come and go every year but stay all year long. In order to sail through the Northwest Passage, stronger ships will be needed to break ice sheets that float around . But since it costs a lot of money, many companies will still use the Panama Canal to get their goods from one side of the American coast to the other. However, even if ice breakers manage to keep the Northwest Passage open for a longer period of time, it will take normal ships much longer to sail around the many islands in the Canadian Arctic. And another problem for shipping is that many parts of Arctic Ocean do not have accurate (精确的) maps ( most maps date back to the explorations of the 19th century). Experts suggest that there are some other passages that are better than the Northwest Passage. One of them is the so-called Northeast Passage, a waterway along the northern coast of Russia. There are no islands to sail through and climate conditions are sometimes better than in Canada. The route is already open during two months of they year.28. What is the purpose of the Northwest Passage ？A. To ship goods B. To transport passengers. C. To travel underwater. D. To protect the animals in the Arctic. 29. Which of the following can replace the underlined word “permanent” in Paragraph 2?A. clean. B. beautiful C. long-lasting D. man-made30. What is the feature of the Northwest Passage?A. It has fewer ice sheets . B. It has more sunny days. C. It is open for a longer time . D. It may cost more time to pass through.31. How many waterways are mentioned in the text?A. Three. B. Four. C. Five. D. Six D Many people think of Philadelphia as the place where the Liberty Bell, a symbol of Americas independence, is located. But there is another side to the cityits murals (壁画). In neighborhoods throughout the city, you will find more than 4,000 murals painted on the sides of buildings. The murals are of different sizes, shapes and colors. Some murals are painted directly onto the buildings. Others are painted on paper and then fitted onto the wall like a puzzle. The Mural Arts Program began in 1984 as part of Philadelphias Anti-Graffiti Network. Today, lots of artists are painting murals with the help of community members. The program welcomes everyone to paint and is now working with more than 25,000 local people of all ages and backgrounds. A mural called “Finding Home”, for example, was created by homeless people. Artist Meg Saligman, who has painted many murals around the city, says that she is honored to take part in the program and that she hopes it can bring changes. “Spending a couple of hours painting with others is a great experience,” says Deborah OBrien, a Philadelphia volunteer. The murals, she adds, represent the diversity and sense of community. Murals can last anywhere from 5 to 25 years. When a mural starts to fade(褪色), the program tries to save it. “People are sad and angry when you take a mural away because people really love them,” says Saligman. Mural subjects range from sports to politics to history. That means everyone can have a favorite. If youre planning to visit Philadelphia, be sure to check out the colorful murals.32. What do we know about murals?A. They are made in bright colors. B. They include all kinds of puzzles.C. They take on different appearances. D. They are generally painted on paper.33.The mural “Finding Home” is mentioned to show _. A. the great talent of the homeless.B. everyones participation in murals.C. someones dream of having a home.D. the history of the Mural Arts Program34. What can we learn about the Mural Arts Program?A. It needs a number of volunteers. B. It brings changes for every artist. C .It works on saving fading murals. D.It appeals to people to love murals.35. What is the authors purpose in writing the text?A. To introduce murals in Philadelphia.B. To explore the future of the murals. C. To encourage the public to focus on murals.D. To tell us how Philadelphia became independent.第二节：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。选项中有两项是多余选项。(每小题2.5分) Remember the last time you spent some time alone? And it doesnt include the time when you were sending a written message on your smart phone or checking out someones pictures on any social networking (社交网) site. 36 Its hard, isnt it ? Man is a social animal, and of course we cannot live alone, but sometimes we just need a break from everything. And , that is surely not a bad thing. 37 In fact, spending some time alone can help you in many ways .For example, it creates chances for you to introspect(反省). When you are alone, you can introspect, understand what you really want in life, be true to your feelings, and make decisions without being influenced by others. 38 Do you feel puzzled about what to do? Its good to ask people for advice, but finally its going to be your decision. Take some time off, go for a long walk or a run, and youll find the answer youve been looking for. 39 More importantly, it will help you enjoy the little things that you never realized mattered. When youre alone, you can do what you want to do as you wont be afraid of being judged by someone else. 40 Actually, happiness starts with YOU, not with your relationships, your job, or your money, but only with you!A. It will be difficult for one person to be alone.B. Is your mind caught up in a problem?C. And this will make you feel very happy.D. Just being alone, not lonely but alone. E.
