Most famous works of art were based on real settings, and maybe you can visit them on your vacation. Here are three examples. Vincent Van Goghs “ Caf Terrace at Night” Born in Holland, Van Gogh spent a great deal of time in France, and this painting was made in Arles on the Place du Forum in 1888. You can walk through the area, and even stop at the caf that the painting was based on for a free taste of ice cream. You can also rent a bike and cycle through the countryside, some of which, according to Lonely Planet, was featured(特写)in other landscape paintings from Van Gogh. Opening Times:19 Mar.4 Nov. (Christmas season: 5 Nov.20163 Jan.2017) Claude Monets “Water Lilies” The subject of over 200 paintings from Monet is nothing if not a beautiful destination. Visiting the real-life pool of his water lily fascination is a good choice. The landscape paintings were done at his home in Giverny , a small town in northern France on the River Seine. His home and gardens are open to visitors. Its said that Monet was attracted by what he saw many years ago through a train windoweventually helping him decide to move there. Opening Times: Mid June to early September (Friday to Tuesday) Salvador Dalis “Port Lligat Landscape”Not many of Dalis paintings are of this world, and most seem to be based on something internal(内在的).His paintings involving Port Lligat, such as “The Madonna of Port Lligat” and “Port Lligat Landscape”, are actually based on a real location, even if they feature angels and a trumpeting (吹号角的)horse rider.The landscape of the region also had a strong influence on his other works, even if the area was not directly featured in them. Opening Times: 10 am daily21.When can you visit the caf ? A. Early March. B. Mid April. C. Early February. D.Mid January.22.Which works of art is painted more than 200 paintings? A.Caf Terrace at Night. B.The Madonna of Port Lligat. C.Water Lilies. D. Port Lligat Landscape.23.What do we know about Salvador Dali? A.He spent a lot of time in France. B. The masterpiece “Port Lligat Landscape” was imaginary.C.The port is open to tourists only on Friday. D. “The Madonna of Port Lligat”was based on a real setting.BFor a long time, I had a firm faith that my suffering came from my size. I thought that when the weight disappeared, it would take old wounds, hurts, and rejections with it. Many weight-conscious people also mistakenly believe that changing their body will fix everything.Perhaps their worst mistake is believing that being thin equals being loved, being special, and beingcherished. We imagine what it will be like when we reach the long-awaited goal. We work very hard to realize this dream. Then, at last ,we find ourselves there.But we often gain back what we have lost. Even so, we continue to believe that next time it will bedifferent. Next time, we will keep it off. Next time, being thin will finally achieve its promise of everlastinghappiness, self-worth, and of course, love. It took me a long while to realize that there was something more for me to learn about beauty. Beautystandards vary with cultures. In Samoa(萨摩亚国), a woman is not considered attractive unless she weighs more than200 pounds. More importantly, if its happiness that we want, why not put our energy there rather than onthe size of our body? Why not look inside? Many of us struggle hard to change our body,but in vain. We have to find a way to live comfortably inside our body and make friends with others andcherish ourselves.When we change our attitudes toward ourselves, the whole world changes.24.The purpose of the author in writing this passage is to _.A.tell people how to lose weight B.encourage people to put on weightC.express her attitude towards life D.show different standards about beauty25.What can be inferred about the author?A .The author probably got wounded in some accidents. B.The author is a Samoan.C.The author was never troubled by her weight.D.The author used to attempt to lose weight.26.According to the text ,those who have lost weight first and put on weight again feel_.A. satisfied with the regained weight B. pessimistic about the regained weightC. tired with weight control D. optimistic about future plans on weight control27.Which of the following statements is true?A. The author had a strong belief that her suffering came from her weight. B. Those losing weight can get true love. C. Putting on weight is attractive. D. It took the author little time to change her mind.CMaybe you have the idea that if you possess more money,you will feel happy. Strange as it may seem, if youre unsatisfied, the issue is not a lack of means to meet your desires but a lack of desiresnot that you cannot satisfy your tastes but that you dont have enough tastes.Real riches consist of well-developed and hearty abilities to enjoy life. Most people are already swamped(淹没) with things. They eat, wear, go and talk too much. They live in too big a house with too many rooms, but their house of life is a hut.Your house of life ought to be a mansion (豪宅),a royal palace. Every new taste, every additional interest, every fresh enthusiasm adds a room. Here are several rooms your house of life should have.Art should be a desire for you to develop simply because the world is full of beautiful things. If you understood how to enjoy them and feed your spirit on them, they would make you as happy as to find plenty of ham and eggs when youre hungry.Literature, classic literature, is a beautiful, richly furnished room where you might find many an hour of rest and refreshment. To gain that love would go toward making you a rich person, for a rich person is not someone who has a library but who likes a library.Music like Mozarts and Bachs shouldnt be absent. Real riches are of the spirit. And when youve brought that spirit up to where classical music feeds it and makes you a little drunk, you have increased your thrills and bettered them. And life is a matter of thrills.Sports, without which you remain poor, mean a lot in life. No matter who you are, you would be more human, and your house of life would be better supported against the bad days, if you could, and did play a bit. Whatever rooms you might add to your house of life, the secret of enjoying life is to keep adding.28. According to the passage ,a person is unsatisfied because_.A. he is lacking in means to meet his desiresB. he cant satisfy his tastesC. he cant earn a great deal of moneyD.he doesnt have enough tastes or desires 29. The passage is aimed at telling us _.A . the more money we have, the happier we areB. it is of vital importance to take possession of a mansionC. true happiness is from spiritual riches D. big houses can bring richness of life all the time30. All the following rooms your house of life should have are mentioned except _.A. art B. money C. music D. sports31. What would be the best title for the passage?A. Literature and Sports. B. Rest and Refreshment. C. House of Life. D. Wealth and Happiness. DCompanion robots are becoming more and more important in offering help to busy people looking after the elderly and children.

Since heart disease is the No.1 killer among both men and women, it benefits all of us to eat better for our hearts. 36 You could be putting something into your body that you think is good for youbut it could actually be deadly. Not sure what foods have cheated you into thinking they benefit this vital organ? Here are three foods you should never buy again.Nonfat anythingRemember the health food craze of the90s when everything was “nonfat?” Well ,it might be one of the most misleading popularities of all time. The problem with taking the fat out of dairy products, like yogurt, is that the fat is replaced with artificial sweeteners and a bunch of fillers for flavor. 37 So wed better stick to plain(原味的) yogurt ,which is connected to good blood pressure and cholesterol(胆固醇). TeaThis one might surprise you. Tea is supposed to be one of the healthiest things you can put into your body, right ? To be clear, most loose-leaf teas are good for you, but the bottled teas we typically reach for at the store are loaded with heart-harming materials. This variety of tea, Like Snapple, contains very little brewed tea（酿造茶）, but enough added sugar to be as bad for you as a soda. 38 . Coffee 39 .On one hand ,the American Heart Association says that coffee is not directly linked to coronary heart disease(冠心病). There are, however, additions to coffee-based drinks that can make them a health risk. Creamer, for example, is loaded with trans fat, which raises your cholesterol and your risk of a heart attack. 40 Or, switch to tea for your coffee.A. Heart-Healthy food is considered to be beneficial to peoples health.B. And all that will raise your blood sugar levels, putting you at a higher risk of heart disease.C. Instead, try using milk instead of creamer in your morning cup of coffee.D. Tea has many advantages over coffee.E. The solution here is to stick to brewed tea, even if you prefer your tea on ice.F. Coffee is quite controversial when it comes to talking about your heart health.G. Unfortunately, some heart-healthy foods are falsely advertised.第3部 分 语言知识运用（共两节，满分45分）第一节 完形填空（共20小题;每小题1.5分，满分30分） 阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。Within seconds after a baby giraffe is born, it rolls over and tucks(蜷缩)its legs under its body.
