Reading Comprehension (52分)‎ Section A (30分)‎ Directions: For each blank in the following passage there are four words or phrases marked A, B, C and D. Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context.‎ The ancient art of opera can be brilliant entertainment; it is a(n) (21)_______ of music, drama, and sometimes dance, staged with elaborate(精心制作的) sets of costumes. Opera is often (22)_______ by many, however, partly because of some of the stereotypes(成见) associated with it. Some of its critics say that the narratives are too complex.

The three principal musical (27)_______ are the overture(前奏曲), the recitative(朗诵调), and the aria(咏叹调).‎ The overture is the instrumental introduction to the opera, the purpose of which has been (28)_______ over time. During the nineteenth century, the overture began to combine snippets of melodies from arias, ballets, and other musical elements in a medley of the opera’s musical themes.‎ A recitative is less a song than a monologue(独白) that is sung rather than (29)_______. A recitative is an element, older than the overture, which was invented at the beginning of the seventeenth century as a means of telling (30)_______ in music; the first operas were actually a series of recitatives joined by musical interludes. Because an opera is basically a play set to music, the recitative is a means of telling the (31)_______ what is going on and what is about to happen.‎ An aria is a solo performance—often one of the highlights of the opera. Arias can be declarations of love or (32)_______ of hope, happiness, sorrow, or anguish. Many composers have written arias to (33)_______ the vocal gifts of singers; some sopranos(女高音歌手) were indeed famous for the very high notes that they could sing. (34)_______, arias are not the only songs in opera. Duets, compositions for three or four voices, and large-group numbers are also common.

For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read.‎ A Chinese Ministry of Education (教育部) is changing its traditional policy of encouraging schools to give special admission (入学) opportunities to those students with special talents in sports, music and art, even though their grades didn’t reach the standard.‎ The policy was flawed because some parents expose their not-so-talented child to plenty of expensive and demanding training courses in order to improve their child’s slim chances of approaching a good school. And then there was the problem of corruption (贪污腐败), which means some local officials selling the talent certificates (证书) and medals to those ambitious parents. According to a press conference held by the Ministry of Education in March, 2018, the “special talent” policy is expected to be completely called off by 2020.‎ Although the policy is ending, it should not imply that students should give up developing their talents and interests. These extracurricular (课外的) activities may not have a direct effect on academic performance, but they are ways for students to begin building a “talent stack” that will help them in their future careers.‎ The idea of a “talent stack” comes from the American cartoonist Scott Adams. According to Adams, people shouldn’t focus on the goal of becoming the best at something because very few people are actually the best. There are not many Michael Jordans or Albert Einsteins. Instead, people should cultivate a variety of skills that work well together.‎ Jack Ma (马云) is a typical example of what Adams is talking about. Ma liked English and became an English teacher. He learned some business skills by operating an English language training school. He also had an interest in computers. On a visit to the United States, he discovered the internet and the way it was being used to buy and sell things. Although Ma wasn’t the best English speaker or a computer expert, he was able to “stack” them —to put them together—to learn about internet trading and then start Alibaba, the world’s largest online trading website.‎ Although you may not realize it, you have already begun building your talent stack by learning English. If you have other interests like art and sports, you should continue to develop them. They will add to your talent stack and give you an advantage in the job market. Your unique set of skills, even if you may not be the best at any of them, may also lead you into new careers you may not have previously considered. Having a talent may no longer give students a shortcut in getting into a good school, but developing that talent will have long-term benefits as part of your “talent stack.”‎ ‎36. What does the word “flawed” in Paragraph 2 probably mean?‎ A. perfect. B. complicated. C. imperfect. D. pointless.‎ ‎37. Which of the following statements about the “talent stack” is NOT true?‎ A. It was carried out by an American cartoonist.‎ B. Michael Jordan and Albert Einstein has one of the best talent stacks in the world.‎ C. Studying a foreign language is an effective way to build one’s “talent stack”.‎ D. The power of talent stacks may be beyond your imagination.‎ ‎38. Why does the author take Jack Ma’s personal experience as an example?‎ A. To prove that Jack Ma is good at running a business.‎ B. To show that one’s “talent stack” has nothing to do with his academic performance.‎ C. To tell the readers that mastering English is the most efficient means to build one’s “talent stack”.‎ D. To point out that “talent stack” can helps a person take advantage of benefits from different professional fields.‎ ‎39. What can we infer(推断) from the article?‎ A. Students with special talents will have fewer opportunities to study in good schools in two years.‎ B. Having talents and interests doesn’t help a student’s academic performance at all.‎ C. Developing a talent in sports, music or art is certain to cost a lot of money.‎ D. The author holds a negative attitude towards the newly-launched policy.‎ B The Campus Bookstore Bookie’s, the campus bookstore is located at the Campus Activity Centre, main floor.‎ Bookie’s is the only place in Kamloops to buy your course textbooks. There is a booklist in the bookstore listing the books required for each course.
