19、eenth centuries. Readers were “listeners attentive to a reading voice,” and “the text addressed to the ear as much as to the eye.” The significance of reading aloud continued well into the nineteenth century.Using Charles Dickenss nineteenth century as a point of departure, it would be useful to loo

20、k at the familial and social uses of reading aloud and reflect on the functional change of the practice. Dickens habitually read his work to a domestic audience or friends. In his later years he also read to a broader public crowd. Chapters of reading aloud also abound in Dickenss own literary works

21、. More importantly, he took into consideration the Victorian practice when composing his prose, so much so that his writing is meant to be heard, not only read on the page.Performing a literary text orally in a Victorian family is well documented. Apart from promoting a pleasant family relationship,

22、 reading aloud was also a means of protecting young people from the danger of solitary（孤独的）reading. Reading aloud was a tool for parental guidance. By means of reading aloud, parents could also introduce literature to their children, and as such the practice combined leisure and more serious purpose

23、s such as religious cultivation in the youths. Within the family, it was commonplace for the father to read aloud. Dickens read to his children: one of his surviving and often-reprinted photographs features him posing on a chair, reading to his two daughters.Reading aloud in the nineteenth century w

24、as as much a class phenomenon as a family affair, which points to a widespread belief that Victorian readership primarily meant a middle-class readership. Those who fell outside this group tended to be overlooked by Victorian publishers. Despite this, Dickens, with his publishers Chapman and Hall, m

25、anaged to distribute literary reading materials to people from different social classes by reducing the price of novels. This was also made possible with the technological and mechanical advances in printing and the spread of railway networks at the time.Since the literacy level of this section of t

26、he population was still low before school attendance was made compulsory in 1650 by the Education Act a considerable number of people from lower classes would listen to recitals of texts. Dickenss readers, who were from such social backgrounds, might have heard Dickens in this manner. Several biogra

27、phers of Dickens also draw attention to the fact that it was typical for his texts to be read aloud in Victorian England, and thus literacy was not an obstacle for reading Dickens. Reading was no longer a chiefly closeted form of entertainment practiced by the middle class at home.A working class ho

28、me was in many ways not convenient for reading: there were too many distractions, the lighting was bad, and the home was also often half a workhouse. As a result, the Victorians from the non-middle classes tended to find relaxation outside the home such as in parks and squares, which were ideal plac

29、es for the public to go while away their limited leisure time. Reading aloud, in particular public reading, to some extent blurred the distinctions between classes. The Victorian middle class defined its identity through differences with other classes. Dickenss popularity among readers from the non-

30、middle classes contributed to the creation of a new class of readers who read through listening.Different readers of Dickens were not reading solitarily and “jealously,” to use Walter Benjamins term. Instead, they often enjoyed a more communal experience, an experience that is generally lacking in t

31、odays world. Modern audiobooks can be considered a contemporary version of the practice. However, while the twentieth and twentieth-first-century trend for individuals to listen to audiobooks keeps some characteristics of traditional reading aloudsuch as “listeners attentive to a reading voice” and

37、r team last month and we had no idea that he was being examined.”Its a story that has become more and more familiar in recent years. Dr. Mohammad Farnood, a leading sports scientist from Cairo, Egypt, said, “ It is thought that some athletes will look for other ways to improve performance in additio

38、n to using drugs.”However, it has not always been against the law. In the Olympics in 1904, Thomas Hicks won the marathon after using drugs in the middle of the race. In fact, the first one didnt make him feel better for long, so he was given another and, as a result, he fell down soon after finishi

39、ng and knew nothing. Another one may well have killed him.Things are very different today. Some scientists are considering the possibilities of using genetic engineering to further develop athletes abilities. “If it works with no risk of discovering,” said Dr Farnood, “ then its likely to become com

40、mon practice for athletes.”Researchers are looking at the possibility of identifying “athletic” genes and correcting weak ones. Put into practice, this would make a person healthier and stronger. Once scientists understand what genes of top athletes look like , it might even become possible to ident

41、ify “athletic” genes in young people, and then money could be spent on children who have the most promising genes.“People are beginning to recognize that genetics can in many ways do good to our society, for example in saving lives and in creating better quality food for people.” Dr Farnood says. “

42、So, is it fair to use genetic engineering in sport? You could ask if its fair for some runners to use the latest scientifically developed footwear. The key question is whether its available to everyone.”1、What does the underlined word “ flabbergasted” in Paragraph 1 mean ?AShy . BProud.CExcited. DSu

43、rprised.2、What happened to Thomas Hicks in 1904 ?AHe was badly hurt in training.BHe broke the law when running in a race.CHe took drugs and almost got killed.DHe lost the match in the Olympic Games.3、Who may show the greatest concern about using genetic engineering in sport ?ADidier Garcia .BThomas

It is perhaps one of the most widely known martial arts, because many films include its techniques. There are hundreds of styles taught all over the world, although they can

46、 be loosely divided into two camps: Shaolin style kung fu, and other techniques, some of which have a history that outdates the Shaolin order.Shaolin kung fix has its origins in the fifth century. Like some other martial arts, it began in religious temples, where the monks sought a mind and body dis

47、cipline (训练方法). In addition to the fighting style, it also includes mental exercises and religious practices designed to balance the whole body.Shaolin temples resembled universities, integrating a wide range of subjects of study. Therefore, traditional Shaolin styles such as Wing Chun, Crane, Prayi

48、ng Mantis, and Hung Gar took knowledge from fields outside martial arts, such as the healing arts and meditation. Supporters for Shaolin styles believe that they are more rounded martial arts styles, and that learners will benefit from them on a whole body level.Other fighting styles, some of which

49、predate the Shaolin style, are also lumped under the kung fu umbrella. They include Pa-Kua, Eagle Claw, and Eight Drunken Immortals styles. These disciplines are not considered to be Shaolin style because they did not originate in temples and are focused primarily on fighting techniques.Whether Shao

50、lin or otherwise, kung fu is characterized by self defense strategies that turn the energy of an attacker against him or her. Although the techniques may vary, most styles teach throws, kicks, punches, and the use of weapons. In addition to the physical discipline, most place a great importance on r

51、espect, honor, and living a balanced life.1、What is the text mainly about?AThe reason why kung fu is important.BThe different styles of Shaolin kung fu.CThe functions and branches of kung fu.DThe differences between Shaolin style and others.2、We can learn from the first paragraph that kung fu .Ais g

52、ood for people physically and mentallyBhas the longest history in Shaolin templesCis something that are taught in many filmsDhas only two important styles left at present3、Which of the following is true about Shaolin kung fu according to the text?AShaolin kung fu was invented earlier than other styl

53、es.BSome Shaolin styles are connected with healing arts.CWing Chun is not included in Shaolin Style kung fu,DPa-Kua and Eagle Claw are under Shaolin Style umbrella.4、What do most styles of kung fu have in common?AThey all began in religious temples in China.BThey teach physical skills instead of use

54、 of weapons.CThey focus on attacking the enemy first with your energy.DThey require learners to be respectful and honor themselves.25（10分）DINERSTONY SOPRANOS LAST MEALBetween 1912 and the 1990s, New Jersey State was home to more than 20 diner manufacturers who made probably 95 percent of the diners

55、in the U.S, says Katie Zavoski, who is helping hold a diner exhibit. What makes a diner a diner? (And not, say, a coffee shop?) Traditionally, a diner is built in a factory and then delivered to its own town or city rather than constructed on-site. Zavoski credits New Jerseys location as the key to

Technically, its not even really about a diner the setting is New York Citys Toms Restaurant, which Vega frequented when s

58、he was studying at Bamard. Vega used the word “diner” instead because it “sings better that way,” she told The New York Times. November 18 has since been called Toms Diner Day, because on that day in 1981, the New York Posts front page was a story about the death of actor William Holden. In her song
