分析 本文主要介紹了大英博物館的相關(guān)信息．分別介紹了其歷史，藏品數(shù)目，門票和開放時(shí)間，訪問的技巧，取消訪問的做法等各方面知識(shí)．最后呼吁大家來捐款支持博物館運(yùn)行．

解答 21．C．理解判斷題．由第四段"Museum galleries are open daily 10：00-17：30"可知，平時(shí)的開放時(shí)間是上午十點(diǎn)到晚上五點(diǎn)半，因此周一下午一點(diǎn)半是可以進(jìn)入的．故選C．
22．D．詞義推斷題．由劃線詞所在句的上一句得知，當(dāng)你需要取消預(yù)訂時(shí)要提前三周通知，可以推測接下來應(yīng)當(dāng)是講未取消預(yù)訂的后果，應(yīng)該是懲罰性的，故選bring about a charge，帶來收費(fèi)．故選D． 
23．C．理解推理題．由"Gallery availability"一段中的"Greek and Egyptian galleries book up quickly"可得，這個(gè)畫廊總是被迅速預(yù)訂，可推知它很受學(xué)校訪問者的歡迎．故選C．
24．C．理解推理題．由最后一段"The British Museum relies on funding from a wide range of sources and there are many ways that you can donate to help ensure the display，care and preservation of the collection for future generations"，博物館主要依靠大量的資金來源，你可以有多種方式來通過捐贈(zèng)資金，為了我們的下一代來確保和關(guān)心這些藏品．故選C．

8．Books are typically written first，then narrated （朗讀） for audio （有聲） books．Until now．Audible，the largest company of audio books，has begun asking well-known writers to create works specifically for audio，instead of inviting people to narrate already existing print books．It's a new chapter for the book industry．
    Audible now has about 30 totally new audio works in production．And it turns out that audio books，which have long been regarded as less important than e-books，have actually been doing quite well．They are a $1，000，000，000 industry，with more than 35，000 titles published in 2013alone．
    What promotes that progress is not only an evolution of technology，but more importantly，the rise of the celebrity （名人） narrator．Narrators are key to the success of an audio book and these days，producers are signing on more and more celebrities．Celebrities'narration is like a private performance to customers，who get a feeling of closeness in listening to their voices．Many of the customers buy audio books based on the narrator．They will listen to anything a specific actor or actress reads．
That is why Audible is taking the risk of not producing print books at all but starting totally new audio works．There's another reason why the company is expecting its risk-taking action to pay off：humans have been telling stories since the beginning of time．We are taking part in a little habit that goes back thousands and thousands of years-before the first mark was ever made on a stone．Long before writing，people were telling each other stories and the audio book goes all the way back to that tradition．As Peter Allen sang softly in the 1970s，everything old is new again．
32．The"new chapter"（Para.1）refers to a time ofA．
A．producing totally new audio works
B．starting audio companies
C．narrating print books for audio
D．creating electronic books
33．What does Paragraph 2 tell about audio books？D
A．Their difference from e-books．
B．Their previous production．
C．Their great importance．
D．Their bright future．
34．Customers like celebrities'narration becauseD．
A．celebrities help them understand the stories
B．celebrities have more attractive voices
C．celebrities have better narra ting skills
D．celebrities seem to be within their reach
35．Audible believes its risk-taking action will be rewarding becauseA．
A．the action agrees with the story-telling tradition
B．customers play an active role in the action
C．the company has spent a lot on the action
D．the action has lasted for a long time．

18．It is widely acknowledged that nearly every kid might come across some kind of school bullying，however，the age at which kids first fall victim to bullying （欺侮） could influence how strongly they are affected，suggests a new study．And，surprisingly，it is not the youngest kids who are hurt the most in the long term．
Bullying can have long-lasting effects，but particularly when it begins in adolescence，the researchers say．People subjected to either verbal （ 口頭的）or physical bullying are known to be at greater risk of developing depression，anxiety disorders or to behave violently．But not everyone reacts in this way．
Children bullied for the first time before they hit adolescence seem to get over it，but those who are bullied for the first time later on in adolescence seem to become more aggressive or are more likely to turn to drink as a means of coping．These are the conclusions of psychologist Matthew Newman and colleagues from the University of Texas at Austin，US．
The team gave questionnaires to nearly 1，500 college students regarding their experience of physical and psychological bullying before adolescence--before high school--and in late adolescence--at high school．They assessed mood and mental state，judging by signs of anxiety or depression，such as sleeplessness．The group was also questioned about how they would react to certain challenges，such as humiliation．
People who were bullied all revealed slightly higher levels of stress．But while those bullied earlier in life seemed to respond normally to provocation （煽動(dòng)），people bullied for the first time late in adolescence are more withdrawn and sensitive to violence．
There are also sex differences between those bullied for the first time during adolescence，with females more likely to react aggressively when provoked and males are much more likely to turn to alcohol to escape bad situations．
The best solution in all cases was strong social support，whether from friends，family or school．Those with no one to share their problems with suffered the most．
So perhaps it is best not to shelter children completely from bullying early on，suggests Newman．"They may get stressed，but unhealthy coping really jumps out when they are bullied for the first time later on．"
28．What determines the degree of bullying's effect on people according to the study？C
A．The reason why they are bullied．
B．The place where they are first bullied．
C．The age at which they are first bullied．
D．The person who first bullies them．
29．What may happen to those first bullied later on in adolescence according to Newman and his colleagues？A
A．Some are likely to be more aggressive．
B．They seem to easily get over the effect of bullying．
C．Most of them will respond to bullying normally．
D．Most of them are afraid of sharing their problems．
30．What does the underlined word"humiliation"in Paragraph 4 mean？B
A．Carrying out an important plan．B．Being made to feel ashamed．
C．Trying hard to survive an accident．D．Feeling hopeless in an emergency．
31．The sex differences between people bullied for the first time during adolescence are reflected in．C
A．the support they get from the society                   
B．the effect bullying has on them
C．the way they react to provocation                 
D．the type of bullying they receive．

5．Many French academics，teachers and parents complain because they feel that intellectual levels are falling rapidly!The figures prove it：young people visit museums less，spend their lives chatting on the Internet，read nothing but Stephen King，while watching American soaps such as Friends or reality shows like Star Academy on television，music player glued to their cars，and the games console handy．
It is，however，easy to see these habits  in a positive light．Music is the favorite leisure activity：86% of 14-to18-year-olds put it at the top of their activities，above the cinema（71%），clubbing（68%），sport（56%） and television（48%）．For 90% of young people aged 14to 18，radio is also very popular：they listen to it every day without exception．International popular music has a strong showing，but songs in French are still in the majority（60%）．
Young people do，of course，watch a lot of television，but less than their elders，and if they tend to choose mostly soaps and reality TV shows，that is because these are the programs people talk about，which encourages social interaction．Do young people read less than they used to？Maybe，but that's also true of the elders．Young people still read more than their elders．When asked，"Do you like reading？"，94% of 14-to-18-year-olds say they do，and 81% are convinced that computers will never replace books．
Contrary to popular belief，reading continues to occupy an extremely important place in leisure-time activities，but the reading matter young people choose has changed considerably：there is a greater variety of media（computers and new technologies） and young people admit to taste they would perhaps have been ashamed of in the past．For example，comic strips，Stenphen King or other authors not recognized by mainstream culture，such as Betty Mahmoody （Not Without My Daughter），Mary Higgins Clark or Jostein Gaader （Sophie's World）．As Beatrice Toulon，Editor in Chief of the magazine Phosphore，see it，"They don't read the same things as their parents did，but they are not afraid to admit it．They have their own culture，which they flaunt（炫耀） openly!"

51．The underlined part"in a positive light"in Paragraph 2can best be replaced byC．
A．in the long term
B．during the daytime
C．from an optimistic angle
D．beyond reasonable doubt
52．Which activity is the most popular with young French people？A
A．Music．
B．Sport．
C．Cinema．
D．TV．
53．We can infer that young French peopleB．
A．a(chǎn)re ashamed of their tastes
B．a(chǎn)re proud of their own culture
C．share their parents'tastes in reading
D．a(chǎn)dmit that they read less than their parents
54．What is the author's attitude towards intellectual levels in France？D
A．Worried．
B．Doubtful．
C．Uninterested．
D．Approving．
55．Which of the following can be best title for the passage？C
