In 1863 the first underground passenger railway in the world opened in London. It ran for just under seven kilometers and allowed people to avoid terrible (crowd) on the roads above as they travelled to and work. It took three years to complete and was built using an interesting method. This included digging up the road, (lay) the track and then building a strong roof over top. When all those had been done, the road surface was replaced.
Steam engines (use) to pull the carriages and it must have been(fair) unpleasant for the passsengers, with all the smoke and noise. However, the railway quickly proved to be a great success and within six months, more than 25,000 people were usingevery day.
Later, engineers (manage) to construct railways in a system of deep tunnels (隧道), which became known as the Tube. This development was only possible with the (introduce) of electric-powered engines and lifts. The central London Railway was one of the most (success) of these new lines, and was opened in 1900. It had white-painted tunnels and bright red carriages, and proved extremely popular with the public.

【答案】crowds;from;laying;the;were used;fairly;it;managed;introduction;successful
【解析】
⑴句意:1863年,世界上第一個(gè)地鐵客站在倫敦開(kāi)放。它只運(yùn)行7公里,讓人們避開(kāi)上面的上下班時(shí)的擁擠的人群。avoid后跟名詞,terrible修飾名詞,而crowd是可數(shù)名詞,前面沒(méi)有冠詞,故用復(fù)數(shù)表示泛指,故填crowds。
⑵短語(yǔ):to and from work上下班。故填from。
⑶句意:這個(gè)地鐵花了三年時(shí)間才完工,用一種有趣的方法建的。這包括挖開(kāi)路面,鋪設(shè)鐵軌然后在它的上面建一個(gè)結(jié)實(shí)的頂。根據(jù)and building可知是三個(gè)并列的動(dòng)名詞,故填laying。
⑷此處指在地鐵的上面,是特指,故填the。
⑸句意:蒸汽機(jī)被用來(lái)牽引車廂。根據(jù)上下文可知指過(guò)去的被動(dòng),故填were used。
⑹句意:有那么多的煙和噪音,對(duì)于乘客們來(lái)說(shuō)肯定是非常的令人不愉快的。此處修飾形容詞unpleasant,故用副詞fairly。
⑺句意:然而,地鐵很快證明是非常成功的,在六個(gè)月內(nèi),超過(guò)2.5萬(wàn)人在每天用地鐵。此處指地鐵,故填it。
⑻句意:后來(lái),工程師們?cè)O(shè)法在更深的隧道建鐵路,這就是著名的管道運(yùn)輸。此處是句子的謂語(yǔ),本文全篇都是一般過(guò)去時(shí),所以這里也應(yīng)用一般過(guò)去時(shí),故填managed.
⑼句意:隨著電動(dòng)機(jī)和電梯的引進(jìn)這個(gè)發(fā)展才變得可能。由the可知此處是名詞,故填introduction。
⑽句意:倫敦中心地鐵站是這些新的線路中最成功的。由the most可知用形容詞構(gòu)成最高級(jí),故填successful。

D
When a leafy plant is under attack ,it doesn't sit quietly. Back in 1983, two scientists, Jack Schultz and Ian Baldwin,reported that young maple trees getting bitten by insects send out a particular smell that neighboring plants can get. These chemicals come from the injured parts of the plant and seem to be an alarm.What the plants pump through the air is a mixture of chemicals known as volatile organic compounds,VOCs for short.
Scientists have found that all kinds of plants give out VOCs when being attacked .It's a plant's way of crying out.But is anyone listening?Apparently.Because we can watch the neighbours react.
Some plants pump out smelly chemicals to keep insects away.But others do double duty .They pump out perfumes designed to attract different insects who are natural enemies to the attackers. Once they arrive, the tables are turned. The attacker who was lunching now becomes lunch.
In study after study,it appears that these chemical conversations help the neighbors .The damage is usually more serious on the first plant,but the neighbors ,relatively speaking ,stay safer because they heard the alarm and knew what to do.
Does this mean that plants talk to each other? Scientists don't know. Maybe the first plant just made a cry of pain or was sending a message to its own branches, and so, in effect, was talking to itself. Perhaps the neighbors just happened to “overhear” the cry. So information was exchanged, but it wasn't a true, intentional back and forth.
Charles Darwin, over 150 years ago, imagined a world far busier, noisier and more intimate(親密的) than the world we can see and hear. Our senses are weak. There's a whole lot going on.
(1)What does a plant do when it is under attack?
A.It makes noises.
B.It gets help from other plants.
C.It stands quietly
D.It sends out certain chemicals.
(2)What does the author mean by “the tables are turned” in paragraph 3?
A.The attackers get attacked.
B.The insects gather under the table.
C.The plants get ready to fight back.
D.The perfumes attract natural enemies.
(3)Scientists find from their studies that plants can .
A.predict natural disasters
B.protect themselves against insects
C.talk to one another intentionally
D.help their neighbors when necessary
(4)what can we infer from the last paragraph?
A.The word is changing faster than ever.
B.People have stronger senses than before
C.The world is more complex than it seems
D.People in Darwin's time were imaginative.

C
Some of the world's most famous musicians recently gathered in Paris and New Orleans to celebrate the first annual International Jazz Day. UNESCO( United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization) recently set April 30 as a day to raise awareness of jazz music, its significance, and its potential as a unifying(聯(lián)合) voice across cultures.
Despite the celebrations, though, in the U.S. the jazz audience continues to shrink and grow older, and the music has failed to connect with younger generations.
It's Jason Moran's job to help change that. As the Kennedy Center's artistic adviser for jazz, Moran hopes to widen the audience for jazz, make the music more accessible, and preserve its history and culture.
“Jazz seems like it's not really a part of the American appetite,” Moran tells National Public Radio's reporter Neal Conan. “What I'm hoping to accomplish is that my generation and younger start to reconsider and understand that jazz is not black and white anymore. It's actually color, and it's actually digital.”
Moran says one of the problems with jazz today is that the entertainment aspect of the music has been lost. “The music can't be presented today the way it was in 1908 or 1958. It has to continue to move, because the way the world works is not the same,” says Moran.
Last year, Moran worked on a project that arranged Fats Waller's music for a dance party, “Just to kind of put it back in the mind that Waller is dance music as much as it is concert music,” says Moran. “For me, it's the recontextualization. In music, where does the emotion(情感) lie? Are we, as humans,gaining any insight(感悟) on how to talk about ourselves and how something as abstract as a Charlie Parker record gets us into a dialogue about our emotions and our thoughts? Sometimes we lose sight that the music has a wider context,” says Moran, “So I want to continue those dialogue. Those are the things I want to foster.”
(1)Why did UNESCO set April 30 as International Jazz Day?
A.To remember the birth of jazz.
B.To protect cultural diversity.
C.To encourage people to study music.
D.To recognize the value of jazz.
(2)What does the underlined word “that” in Paragraph 3 refer to?
A.Jazz becoming more accessible.
B.The production of jazz growing faster.
C.Jazz being less popular with the young.
D.The jazz audience becoming larger.
(3)What can we infer about Moran's opinion on jazz?
A.It will disappear gradually.
B.It remains black and white.
C.It should keep up with the times.
D.It changes every 50 years.
(4)Which of the following can be the best title for the text?
A.Exploring the Future of jazz.
B.The Rise and Fall of jazz.
C.The Story of a jazz Musician.
D.Celebrating the Jazz Day.
