19、hartier, reading aloud was a common practice in the ancient world, the Middle Ages, and as late as the sixteenth and seventeenth 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 we

20、ll into the nineteenth century.Using Charles Dickenss nineteenth century as a point of departure, it would be useful to look 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 h

21、is later years he also read to a broader public crowd. Chapters of reading aloud also abound in Dickenss own literary works. 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.Perfo

22、rming a literary text orally in a Victorian family is well documented. Apart from promoting a pleasant family relationship, 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, pa

23、rents could also introduce literature to their children, and as such the practice combined leisure and more serious purposes 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-r

24、eprinted photographs features him posing on a chair, reading to his two daughters.Reading aloud in the nineteenth century was 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

25、 this group tended to be overlooked by Victorian publishers. Despite this, Dickens, with his publishers Chapman and Hall, managed 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 m

26、echanical advances in printing and the spread of railway networks at the time.Since the literacy level of this section of the 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

27、 of texts. Dickenss readers, who were from such social backgrounds, might have heard Dickens in this manner. Several biographers 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 Dicke

28、ns. Reading was no longer a chiefly closeted form of entertainment practiced by the middle class at home.A working class home 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

29、 from the non-middle classes tended to find relaxation outside the home such as in parks and squares, which were ideal places 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 Victoria

30、n middle class defined its identity through differences with other classes. Dickenss popularity among readers from the non-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

31、Walter Benjamins term. Instead, they often enjoyed a more communal experience, an experience that is generally lacking in todays 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

32、 to audiobooks keeps some characteristics of traditional reading aloudsuch as “listeners attentive to a reading voice” and the ear being the focusit is a far more solitary activity.1、What does the author want to convey in Paragraph 1?AThe history of reading aloud.BThe significance of reading aloud.C

33、The development of reading practice.DThe roles of readers in reading practice.2、How did the practice of reading aloud influence Dickenss works?AHe started to write for a broader public crowd.BHe included more readable contents in his novels.CScenes of reading aloud became common in his works.DHis wo

35、 to Victorian society?ADifferent classes started to appreciate and read literary works together.BPeople from lower social classes became accepted as middle-class.CThe differences between classes grew less significant than before.DA non-class society in which everyone could read started to form.6、Wha

37、1860, shortly before the outbreak of the Civil War. Lincoln proved to be a smart military strategist and a competent leader: His Emancipation Proclamation (解放宣言) paved the way for slaverys abolition, while his Gettysburg Address stands as one of the most famous speeches in American history. In April

38、 1865, with the Union on the brink of victory, Abraham Lincoln was killed; his untimely death made him a hero to the cause of liberty, and he is widely regarded as one of the greatest presidents in U.S. history.On January 20, 1981, Reagan took office. Only 69 days later he was shot by a would-be kil

39、ler, but quickly recovered and returned to duty. His grace and wit during the dangerous incident caused his popularity to soar.At the end of his two terms in office, Ronald Reagan viewed with satisfaction the achievements of his innovative program known as the Reagan Revolution, which aimed to motiv

40、ate the American people and reduce their reliance upon Government. He felt he had fulfilled his campaign pledge of 1980 to restore “the great, confident roar of American progress and growth and optimism.”When George W. Bush, at the age of 54, became the 43rd president of the United States, it was on

41、ly the second time in American history that a presidents son went on to the White House. John Quincy Adams, elected the sixth president in 1824, was the son of John Adams, the second president. While John Adams had brought up his son to be president. George Bush, the 41st president, insisted he was

42、surprised when the eldest of his six children became interested in politics, became governor of Texas, and then went on to the white House.Barack Obama served as the 44th President of the United States. His story is the American storyvalues from the heartland, a middle-class upbringing in a strong f

43、amily, hard work and education as the means of getting ahead, and the belief that a life so blessed should be lived in service to others.With a father from Kenva and a mother from Kansas, President Obama was born in Hawaii on August 4, 1961. He was raised with help from his grandfather, who served i

44、n Pattons army, and his grandmother, who worked her way up from the secretarial pool to middle management at a bank.1、Of the four presidents, who is regarded as an excellent public speaker?AAbraham Lincoln.BRonald Reagan.CGeorge W.

47、bout efficiency: Check out these hotels that will get you in and out with a minimum of trouble. When you are pressed for time on a business trip, nothing can infuriate you more than a slow hotel check-in process. On your next trip, try these hotels that offer a speedier check-in process.1. Yotel New

48、 YorkThe self-service kiosks at this high-tech New York hotel work just like the ones youd see at an airport. There are just five-steps to register and obtain your card key. There is even a robotic luggage bellboy. You tap in the number of bags you are carrying and sizes, then wait for a robot arm t

49、o swing down and store your luggage in a locker (say, for a day trip). This also speeds up the check-in process if the first thing you need to do, like me, is head to a series of meetings.2. Marriott Detroit AirportAnother option for business travelers in a hurry: Marriott is rolling out its mobile

50、check-in app to 325 hotels this year, including the Marriott Detroit Airport hotel. (Ive tested the app itself but not for a real visit quite yet.) Here is the basic idea: you download the iphone or Android app. The night before, you can “check-in” virtually. When you arrive, you get an alert that t

51、he room is ready and your key, which is already tied to your reservation, is waiting for you at the desk.3. Hyatt Regency MinneapolisI happened to stay at this hotel recently and liked how fast the kiosk check-in works. Like the Yotel, the kiosk asks you to insert your credit card, similar to an air

52、port terminal. The whole process took about three minutes, when I left, I was equally impressed with the fast check-out. An agent meets you in the lobby with an ipad and asks for an email to use for a receipt. The big advantage: you never have to wait in line.4. Radisson: LaCrosseThe Radisson is try

53、ing to make the kiosk process even faster, at a few select hotels like the Radisson Lacrosse in Wisconsin, you use a mobile app to register and then receive a barcode by email or text. When you get to the kiosk, you scan the barcode to get your key without any other steps required. Its super fast. Y

54、ou can find this new check-in system at the Radisson hotels in Salt Lake City, Seattle, and Phoenix as well.1、Which two hotels offer a mobile app for customers to check in?AYotel New York and Marriott Detroit Airport.BMarriott Detroit Airport and Radisson: LaCrosse.CMarriott Detroit Airport. and Hya

55、tt Regency Minneapolis.DHyatt Regency Minneapolis and Radisson: LaCrosse.2、Which hotel will send you a receipt by email?AYotel New York. BMarriott Detroit Airport.CRadisson: LaCrosse. DHyatt Regency Minneapolis.3、Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?AAt Yotel New York, a robot wil

56、l help you with all the check-in process.BWith its check-in app, you may enter your room in Marriott without a key.CThe barcode you receive from Radisson contributes to the fast check-in.DHyatt Regency Minneapolis is close to an airport terminal.25（10分）“Mom, what is that?” asked my son. “The Bride o

57、f Chucky?”The old doll I was holding was pretty scary. Her glass eyes were especially horrible, closing when she stood upright and flying open when she lay flat. Once she had been loved, but she had been stored in an attic (阁楼) for decades, where the extremes of heat and cold can be hard on a girls

58、looks. Throw her in the waste bin? Maybe. But first, lets check eBay.I clicked, supplied the required information about condition, including defects (i.e., “Only a miracle could save this doll”), and uploaded its photos. I sold it for $5.The buyer was happy: “As described!” he wrote on my feedback p

59、age. “Super seller!” The doll found a home and, I hope, a new life. Maybe she was used to repair other dolls. Perhaps those strange eyes got fixed and once again can inspire a childs love. Its a win-win, if you ask me.I also sold lots of other stuff. None of them brought in a lot of money, though I

60、have been surprised at the occasional bidding war, like, for example, the one over an old swimsuit that would have made Brigitte Bardot look bad. And some customers, lets face it, are strange. Recently I had a hard time convincing an Australian would-be buyer of an Irish souvenir bell that I dont sh
