Good news for all Wes Anderson fans — the US director is back with the film The Wonderful Story of Henry Sugar which hit Netflix, an online film provider, on Sept 27. It is a film adaptation of UK novelist Roald Dahl's novel under the same name.
The film stars UK actor Benedict Cumberbatch as a wealthy man named Henry Sugar, who develops the ability to see through objects. At the very beginning he uses this power to cheat at cards and win big while gambling (赌博), and later turns his fortune into a global network of orphanages (孤儿院).
Dialogue style
Running for just 40 minutes, the film features Anderson's quick-paced dialogue style. He also asked the actors to recite lines directly to the audience by looking at the camera, creating "the effect of listening to a podcast (播客) while turning the pages of a lovely picture book quickly", commented CNN.
Visual style
Anderson's work is immediately recognizable for his visual style as well. The "Anderson aesthetic (美学)" often uses bright color palettes (调色板) to both add visual appeal and make various ideas known to the audience, reported Yahoo News. In The Grand Budapest Hotel for example, Anderson uses a color palette of deep blues, rich greens and warm pinks to recreate an old-world European feel. In The RoyalTenenhaums the red tracksuits worn by Chaz, one of the main characters, show deep-seated anger resulting from parental trauma (创伤).
Symmetrical style
Another style is his use of symmetry (对称). Many of the shots involve (涉及) a person facing the camera, with the elements around the character set up in a sense of order and balance. Anderson explained to the media that it is out of his nature to "arrange things in a frame", which he compares to how people can't change the individuality of their handwriting. "You might try to write very well, but really, you have something your brain tends to do", he said.
However, his obsessive repetition of these stylistic choices in his films has led some to question his ability to innovate (创新). In response to this, Anderson stated, "It's not something I make any effort to do. I just want to make films that are personal but interesting to an audience."
(1)、What do we know about the film The Wonderful Story of Henry Sugar?A、Watching this film is actually listening to a podcast. B、It reflects the unique style of the director Wes Anderson. C、It is based on a real story of a wealthy man named Henry Sugar. D、Its main character gains nothing in gambling in the end.(2)、What's the similarity between the films The Grand Budapest Hotel and The RoyalTenenbaums?A、They both use colors to get various ideas across to the audience. B、They both reflect deep-seated anger. C、They both present an old-world European feel. D、They both have colorful costumes to add to their appeal.(3)、Why did Anderson use symmetrical style in his films?A、Out of curiosity. B、Out of innovation. C、Out of habit. D、Out of kindness.(4)、What is the most probable type of the text?A、A film script. B、A film lecture. C、A film survey. D、A film review. -

Diving in the ocean, marine biologist Erika Woolsey has seen how coral reefs (珊瑚礁) are being damaged by climate change. It has made her decide to find a way to share her experience —including those who can't easily explore the ocean.
Through her non-profit, The Hydrous, Woolsey is using virtual reality to bring the ocean to everyone. Scientists, filmmakers and divers are taking people on immersive (沉浸式的) virtual dives, attracting attention to reef damage and expecting action to protect our sea. About 25% of marine species depend on coral reefs. However, climate change, pollution and overfishing have done harm to around half the world's shallow water coral reefs.
Twenty years of underwater exploration has given Woolsey a detailed understanding of the dangerous situations facing reefs. "I've seen this first-hand shift. Healthy colourful coral reefs become what look like the moonscape step by step," Woolsey says.
It is through this experience that The Hydrous team set out to recreate with their award-winning film Immerse. Intended to watch with a VR headset, viewers join Woolsey for a nine-minute guided virtual div e on the coral reefs, immersed in a 360-degree underwater view.
They swim alongside sea turtles and sharks before witnessing the worsening of the reefs. The experience often brings out strong feelings. "As soon as people take off that headset and look me in the eye, they want to tell me a story about their ocean experience," Woolsey says. "It's that human connection to our ocean that will solve our ocean problems."
Woolsey hopes advances in camera technology will allow her team to take more and more people to places in the ocean that are underexplored and places further away from human civilization. They are developing a virtual experience that will put the people in the role of a marine biologist, carrying out biodiversity surveys underwater, and even transporting the viewers to space to monitor global sea surface temperatures.
(1)、Why did Erika Woolsey set up The Hydrous?A、To collect money for ocean protection. B、To let the public know about coral reefs better. C、To help people enjoy the ocean's beauty. D、To encourage people to protect the ocean.(2)、 What does the underlined word "shift" in Paragraph 3 probably mean?A、change. B、experience. C、material. D、scene.(3)、What can people know through the immersive dive?A、The story about the ocean. B、The situation of coral reefs. C、The connection with sea life. D、The way to protect the ocean.(4)、What does Erika Woolsey hope to do in the future?A、To bring more fun during the lockdown. B、To train talents for environment protection. C、To help people learn more about the ocean. D、To discover more places that need protection. -

I recently spent half a weekend sitting on the sofa watching the Davis Cup. I thought about going for a run, but I did not want to miss the rest of the match. Soon it was starting to get dark, so I did not bother (费神). Whenever I watch tennis, I think how nice it would be to play it regularly. But I have been thinking that for almost 20 years without actually setting foot on a court. The evidence would suggest that I'm not the only one.
When a country or city competes to host an international sporting event, it often promises that more people will take up sports as a result. London was no exception. Tessa Jowell, who helped to bid for (申办) the 2012 Olympics for London, said that by 2012 two million more people would be physically active. And 60 percent of young people would be doing at least five hours of sports per week.
In the end, just over one-third of people in Britain take part in sports once a week. A report on Olympic and Paralympic influences has said that a big change in participation levels simply has not happened.
Why isn't there a big increase in people taking part in sports after most sporting events? Perhaps it is a mistake to assume a definite link between watching sports and playing it. While the games are on, they actually encourage people to do just the opposite — to spend whole sunny days not out playing sports, but inside sitting on the sofa with the curtains shut to stop the sun shining on the TV screen. We don't expect half the audience of a hit musical to apply to drama school the next day, yet we seem to expect it of sporting events.
The high-level performances on show only remind people that they could never match the excellent athletes in their sporting achievements even if they trained full time.
Maybe participation in sports is not the right thing to expect after a major sporting event. The Olympics can do many things, but maybe this cannot necessarily be one of them.
(1)、How does the author introduce the topic?A、By sharing experiences. B、By asking questions. C、By listing figures. D、By analyzing causes.(2)、What can we infer from paragraph 4?A、Watching sports is closely linked with playing it. B、Watching games discourages people from going out. C、Watching games encourages people to take part in sports. D、Half the audience of a hit musical will take part in drama soon.(3)、What might be the best title of the text?A、Do people like participating in sporting events? B、Do people prefer watching big sporting events? C、Do the Olympics encourage people to match athletes? D、Do big sporting events make us do more sport?(4)、What's the author's attitude towards the possibility of people's participating in sports after big events?A、Positive. B、Negative. C、Uncertain. D、Objective. -

10、 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
My friend invited me to a trapeze (高空秋千) class. I was doubtful because of a lack of courage and a short of self-confidence, but her enthusiasm and assurances of strict safety rules won me over.
I had been fearful of heights since elementary school and avoiding my fear of heights became second nature. But here I was, at age twenty-six, facing my fear of heights in a rather extreme way. I had come around to the idea of trying trapeze. I figured it wasn't much different from swinging (舞动) on the monkey bars as a kid. One difficulty I didn't expect was the ladder (梯子). In order to reach the trapeze, I had to climb up a twenty-two-foot ladder.
I could hear one of my classmates expressing her impatience with my slow climb up the ladder. "If she's afraid of heights, why did she sign up for a trapeze class?" However, my friend was at the top of the ladder, trying to encourage me. Besides, his distraction techniques helped to take my mind off my dangerous task. I found a rhythm(节奏) and kept going. With a slow and steady pace, I made it to the top. The cheers from my classmates rang out below.
An instructor told me to step to the edge of the platform. He reminded me of the safety rules, including the net below that would catch me at the bottom. He also asked me to listen to the directions while in the air, so I could perform a trick.
As the instructor counted down, I took a deep breath and pushed off the platform, swinging back and forth. At that moment, I lost awareness of time and space. Fortunately, the instructor's voice came over the loudspeaker, giving me step-by-step instructions for performing a trick. Instead of doubting my inability to perform the trick, I took his directions one step at a time.
注意:
1. 续写词数应为150个左右;
2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
During my flight on the trapeze, my fear didn't completely leave me.
This experience opened up a new way of seeing myself and approaching other challenges.

11、阅读下面短文,在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。
While the key to success in both (person) and professional relationships lies in your ability (communicate) well, it's not the words that you use your body language that speaks the loudest.
Whether you're aware it or not, when you interact with others, you're continuously giving and receiving wordless signals. All of your nonverbal (behavior) — the gestures you make, your tone of voice and how much eye contact you make — send strong messages. They can build trust and draw others towards you, or they can confuse you're trying to express. These messages don't stop when you stop speaking, either. Even when you're silent, you're still communicating nonverbally.
In some instances, what comes out of your mouth and what you communicate through your body language may be two (total) different things. If you say one thing, but your body language says something else, your listener will likely feel that you're being dishonest. When faced with such (mix) signals, the listeners have to choose whether to believe your verbal or nonverbal messages. Since body language is a natural language that (show) your true feelings and intentions, they'll likely choose the nonverbal messages.
However, by improving how you understand and use nonverbal communication, you can express what you really mean, connect better with others, and build stronger, more (reward) relationships.

Traveling with friends or family is always a fun bonding experience, and one of the best ways to do that is by taking a charter (租赁) bus. .
Security and safety

Convenience
There are many advantages of booking a charter bus over a rental car when traveling with a group, but the biggest one is convenience. If you book a charter bus, the bus company will pick you up at your start location, drive you to your end location, and even wait for you at any place where you want to stop. .
A. Flexibility
B. Room for personal belongings
C. In short, the bus is your vehicle, and you can use it as you please

Indoor food growing operations are seeing both successes and failures in the United States. Some companies in the food industry are investing (投资) even as competitors fail.
California-based Plenty Unlimited this summer began working on $300 million indoor plants, while Kroger announced that it would be increasing its availability of vertically (垂直地) farmed produce. Meanwhile, two indoor farming companies that got strong backing—New Jersey's AeroFarms and Kentucky's AppHarvest—filed for financial failure and reorganization. And a five-year-old company in Detroit, Planted Detroit, shut its doors this summer.
The industry changes do not worry Jacob Portillo, a grower with Eden Green Technology, an indoor farming company. "The fact that other people are failing and other people are succeeding is going to happen in any industry you go to," he said.
Indoor farming refers to growing crops indoors, which experts sometimes call "controlled environment agriculture". There are different methods. One method called vertical farming involves putting produce from floor to ceiling, often under artificial lights and with the plants growing in nutrient-enriched water. Other growers are trying very large greenhouses, indoor beds of soil in big buildings and using special robots for parts of the farming process.
Supporters say growing indoors uses less water and land and permits food to be grown closer to consumers, saving on transport. Indoor growing is also a way to protect crops from increasingly extreme weather caused by climate change.
But critics question the sustainability (可持续性) of operations that can require a lot of energy for artificial lights. And they say paying for that light can make profitability impossible. Curt Covington of AgAmerica Lending, a private investment company centered on agriculture, is not convinced that indoor farming operations can work—except in special cases. Given the high cost of indoor operations, Covington said, "It's just hard to be very profitable."
(1)、What is Jacob Portillo's attitude to the indoor food growing industry?A、Positive. B、Worried. C、Unclear. D、Doubtful.(2)、What can we learn about indoor farming?A、It takes a lot of manpower to take care of plants. B、It means growing plants in water instead of soil. C、It protects crops from increasingly extreme weather. D、It is different from controlled environment agriculture.(3)、Why did Curt Covington question indoor farming operations?A、They produce little food. B、They carry great cost. C、They need sunlight. D、They lack investors.(4)、What is the best title for the text?A、What Types of Food Can Be Grown Indoors? B、How Can You Grow Food Indoors Without Soil? C、Indoor Farming Companies Take Agriculture Indoors D、Indoor Food Growing Operations Face an Uncertain Future -
14、阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。
While temperatures continue to climb, visitors are still coming to see Death Valley National Park on the California-Nevada border. The park is known as the hottest place on Earth. This past weekend, the temperatures climbed to 53.33℃. Most visitors at this time of year make it only a short distance to any area in the park before returning to the cool air in their vehicles.
Early information from the park service shows that across the nation's 424 national parks, at least four people have died this year from heat-related causes. That includes a 65-year-old man from San Diego who was found dead at Death Valley earlier this month.
Death Valley National Park suggests visitors be careful and not have expectations of rescue. While park rangers (护林员) drive on park roads and can aid tourists in need, it is unsure that lost visitors will get help in time.
Physical activity can make the heat feel even worse and leave people exhausted. Alessia Dempster, who was visiting from Edinburgh, Scotland, said, "It's very hot especially when there's a gentle wind. You would think maybe that would give you some slight relief from the heat, but it just really does feel like an air blow dryer just going back in your face."
Death Valley is a narrow area that is below sea level and surrounded by high mountains, the park service's website says. The dry air and small plant coverage let sunlight heat up the park surface. The heat then becomes trapped in the valley.
Still, several areas in Death Valley continue to draw tourists. Badwater Basin, made up of salt flats, is considered the lowest point in all of North America. The 183-meter Ubehebe Crater dates back over 2,000 years. And Zabriskie Point is a great sunrise viewing spot.
Josh Miller, a visitor from Indianapolis who has been to 20 national parks so far, shared that feeling. "It's hot, but the scenery is awesome," he said.
(1)、What do most visitors do in Death Valley?A、Cool themselves in time. B、Do lots of physical exercises. C、Stay away from park rangers. D、Carry dryers with themselves.(2)、Why does the author mention the 65-year-old man in paragraph 2?A、To encourage the elderly to travel more. B、To express admiration for mountain climbers. C、To advise people to tour Death Valley more often. D、To show the danger of traveling in Death Valley.(3)、What does paragraph 5 mainly tell us about Death Valley?A、Its covering area. B、Its attractive spots. C、The reason why it is so hot. D、The service of its park's website.(4)、What can be inferred about Death Valley from the last two paragraphs?A、It has a short history. B、It is worth visiting. C、It draws fewer and fewer tourists. D、It is unsuitable for viewing sunrise. -
15、阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。
Last Friday, a robot called EveR6 led an orchestra (管弦乐队) in a performance of Korean music at the National Theater of Korea. EveR 6 is about as tall as a person, and has a human-like face that can show emotions. Its joints (关节) allow it to move its arms quickly and smoothly in many different directions.
But EveR 6 doesn't think on its own like some advanced Artificial Intelligence programs. Instead, it has a limited group of movements that it has been trained to perform. To make these movements as natural as possible, EveR 6's movements are based on those captured from real human conductors.
In Friday's performance, the National Orchestra of Korea presented a concert titled "Absence". The concert included five different pieces of music. Two were conducted by EveR 6, and two were conducted by Soo-Yeoul Choi, who leads the Busan Philharmonic Orchestra. Both conductors worked together on the final piece.
Mr. Choi was impressed with the way EveR 6 moved. "The robot was able to present such detailed moves much better than I had imagined," he said.
But Mr. Choi added that the robot's biggest weakness is that it can't hear. "Some people think that conducting is just a combination of hand waving and keeping the beat," said Mr. Choi. "But a good conductor needs to listen to the orchestra, so that he or she can correct and encourage the orchestra as it plays."
Mr. Choi and EveR 6 both conducted a piece of music called "Sense". Instead of musical notes, EveR 6 had instructions for how to play the piece. The conductors and musicians had to work together to create the music. Mr. Choi communicated with the musicians while EveR 6 kept the beat. Mr. Choi said that once EveR 6 started, the musicians had "no choice but to follow its beats".
Mr. Choi doesn't think robots are likely to replace human conductors. But he believes robots could be helpful in situations like practice sessions where the same thing needs to be repeated many times.
(1)、What do we know about EveR 6 from the text?A、It is an experienced conductor. B、It has a lifelike appearance. C、It is able to listen to music. D、It is much shorter than a person.(2)、What does the underlined word "captured"in paragraph 2 mean?A、Stolen. B、Stopped. C、Recorded. D、Hidden.(3)、What advantage does a human conductor have over EveR 6?A、Waving hands. B、Keeping the beat. C、Having instructions. D、Communicating with musicians.(4)、 What is the text mainly about?A、A robot conducting an orchestra. B、An orchestra having performed in Korea. C、Modern music combined with technology. D、Two conductors getting worldwide recognition. -

My father asked me to chat with him for a while. Actually, I was unwilling to listen to his talking endlessly as he always did. My father was a lawyer, but I never wanted to go to law school or follow his path through life.
As was expected, he cleared his throat and started to say, "Er... What... What do you really want to do in the gorgeous(灿烂的) future?"
I was silent for a moment playing with the cell phone. I kept thinking "Should I tell him my true thoughts? What if he gets angry? What if I let him down?" later I replied, "Well, I want to be a writer."

"Are you serious, dad?"
"Well, you need confidence and good preparations, and you still have plenty of time. You need to find out what you really enjoy now. Look, it's late. Let's take the boat out tomorrow morning, just you and me. Maybe we can catch some crabs (螃蟹) for dinner, and we can talk more."
Early next morning we packed up the equipment and set off for the coast. We didn't talk much, but enjoyed the sound of the seabirds and the sight of the coastline.
There were no big waves and blinding sunlight at that time. "Let's see if we are lucky" he said, picked up a web basket with a rope tied and threw it into the sea. We waited a while, then my father stood up and said, "Give me a hand with this," and we pulled up the crab cage onto the deck.
To our joy, the cage was filled with dozens of soft shell crabs. Squatting (蹲) down, we watched them for a moment. At first they fought against each other to climb out hard, trying to escape. Many were pulled back into the cage. Later, some gave up, but there were still some crabs trying to escape again and again.
