This year, the world marked the 250 th anniversary of the birth of Austrian composer Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart.There have been celebrations of the composer's works all year long.On December fifth, 2006, music houses around the world observed the anniversary of the composer's death That music is from Mozart's Requiem, a work the composer did not complete before his death.A requiem is music written in honor of someone who has died.any people consider the music and its subject matter to add to the mystery surrounding Mozart's death.Could it be that the composer sensed his approaching death from fever and wrote Requiem in his own honor? There is no doubt, however, that the music of Mozart has more to do with life and happine than with sadne or mystery.Mozart wrote and performed music in the second half of the 18th century.During this period, European musicians performed for kings, queens and other royalty.Musicians often depended on wealthy people called patrons to support them.Mozart, along with his friend Joseph Haydn, became the best example of the claical style—the important performance music of his time.Today, people often use the word “ claical” to describe other kinds of music written for and performed by an orchestra.Some music critics consider Symphony Twenty-Five in G Minor to be the first work showing Mozart ' s full ability.He was seventeen when he wrote it.The word “effortle” is often used to describe the musical compositions of Mozart.Music came so naturally to the child born in Salzburg, Austria.Wolfgang was the last of seven children born to Leopold Mozart and Anna Maria Pertl.Five of the children died while babies.Only Wolfgang and his older sister, Maria Anna, survived.Both were extremely gifted musicians from a very young age.The children traveled with their parents and performed acro Europe.Wolfgang' s father was a well-known violin teacher.The year Wolfgang was born, Leopold published a popular book on violin playing.Soon Wolfgang started to show an unusual command of many instruments.By the• age of eight, he played the piano—sometimes with his eyes covered.He also played the organ and violin very well.He showed an understanding of music of a much older person.Which of the following statements was most probably about Mozart's Requiem? It was written in his own honor.It was written to convey life and happine.It was written in the second half of the 18th century.It was written in honor of the dead.The underlined word “ effortle” in paragraph 4 was used in order to emphasize
Mozart's talent Mozart's lazine Mozart's hard work D.Mozart's influence to his family Which of the following is True according to the text? Mozart can't play a variety of instruments.Mozart made a living without any people's support.C.Mozart completed Symphony Twenty—Five in G Minor at the age of 17.were seven children alive in Mozart's family when he was a baby.What is the author's purpose in writing the text? A.To introduce Mozart's works.B.To present Mozart's talent.C.To arouse the readers' interest in music.One of my favorite profeors in college was a self-confeed(g ikfi)liar, Dr.K.He was unique because he admitted telling lies in his lectures.D.To celebrate the 250th anniversary of the birth of Mozart.D.There 4 What made Dr.K memorable was a trick he employed that began with his introduction at the beginning of his first cla: “Now I know some of you have already heard of me, but for the benefit of those who are unfamiliar, let me explain how I teach.Between today until the cla right before finals, I'll put a lie into each of my lectures.Your job, as students, among other things, is to try and catch me in the Lie of the Day.” And thus we began our ten-week course.Early in the course, the Lie of the Day was usually obvious immediately causing a forest of raised hands to challenge the lie.Dr.K would smile, saying, “Very good!In fact, the opposite is true.As the course progreed, however, the Lie of the Day became le noticeable.Every once in a while, a lecture would end with nobody catching the lie.On such days, we would all sit in silence.While Dr.K, looked quite pleased with himself and announced: ”Ah ha!
Each of you has • one lie in your notes.Discu what it might be, and I will tell you next Monday.“ Those lectures forced us to go through what we had set down in our notebooks.It's years since I graduated.While my knowledge taught by Dr.K has faded over time, the leons will always stay fresh with me.” Experts“ can be wrong and say things that sound right—so build a habit of challenging new information and check it against things you already accept as a fact.I've had many instructors before and since, but few that I remember with as muchfondne—and why my favorite profeor was a liar.The author thought Dr K's course unforgettable becausehe offered the students a chance to speak freely he taught them the leons that lasted so long he told the students to look for something untrue in his lecture D.he asked them to get familiar with his unique way of teaching How did the students behave at his profeor's course? They concentrated on his leons with a particular purpose.Many of them raised hands to answer his questions.They sat silently, looking blankly ai each other.They checked their notes in order not to leave anything out.What leon did the author learn from his profeor's course?
Listen attentively to the teacher, in cla.B.Learn to question the truth of the information.C.Take notes carefully and have a discuion if neceary.knowledge fade over time.If you have to be ugly, you might as well be the best at it.A 10-year-old mixed breed dog named ” Quasi Modo“ was awarded first place at the World's Ugliest Dog Competition in June, 2015.Quasi, whose short spine(# E)makes her look like a wolf, ”displayed excellence in ugline, “ Chief Judge Brian Sobel said.-The dog won $ 1 , 500 for her owner.This wasn't Quasi's first exhibition.Last year;the energetic Florida dog won second place, losing out to small, wild-eyed dog named Peanut.Quasi's bio says that in spite of the multiple birth faults that contribute to her strange appearance, she is a happy dog who loves to run and play.She also works as an ”ambaador for teaching people about acceptance and toleranceffor things that are different' , according to the bio.Veterinarian Virginia Sayre and her husband, Mike Carroll, adopted Quasi from Palm Beach County Anima Care and Control about nine years ago.The lovable dog “ gets along well with everybody”, but sometimes other people are amazed by her appearance, Sayre told The Palm Beach Post.D.Never let your
“I have had grown men jump on top of a truck to get away from her.They don't know what to make of her, ” Sayre said.“Though the pre release first identified Quasi as male, the dog is female,” Andrian Guthrie, who worked at Palm Beach County Animal Care and Control when Quasi lived there, told The Huffington Post in an email.and that the dog is female.page.How old is Quasi when Sayre and her husband adopted her? About I year old.B.About 9 years old.C.Newly born.D.Not mentioned.Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the paage?Quasi has won twice at'the World's Ugliest Competition.Quasi looks ugly because she was once badly hurt by a truck.Sayre adopted Quasi because she knew the dog would bring her money in future.The pre release once reported Quasi as male' but admitted the niistake later.According to the paage, we can learn that
The dog is adopted by a couple and leads a tough time
The dog is an ambaador for teaching people acceptance and tolerance Multiple birth faults lead to her strange appearance The dog took part in this kind of competitions for the first time What's the best title of this paage?
The ugliest, the best B.Male or female? C.The ugliest dog D It is a common phenomenon that people develop an incredibly short fuse once they approach mealtimes.However, researchers say that becoming “hungry” has an evolutionary basis.They say it actually helps us survive.Event spokeswoman Karen Spencer confirmed that the pre release made an error If you can't get enough of Qzsi, you can keep up with adventures on her Facebook
D.The lovable ambaador “What is interesting is hunger is actually a survival mechanism,” said Brenda Bustillos, registered nutritionist from Texas A&M Health Science Center School of Public Health.“The amount of glucose(fiüfi)available for the brain declines as more time paes between meals.Food is important because when glucose levels become too low, our brain starts the release of stre hormones.She claims glucose fuels our brain.When your brain is starving, it makes simple tasks and small interactions with people more difficult than usual.Glucose is the number one fuel for the brain and it aids with concentration and our thinking abilities, Bustillos says.” There is a definite linkage between lack of glucose—because of lack of food intake— and limited self-control responses.“ According to Bustillos, being hungry is the result of control and regulation mechanisms in our bodies gone wrong.” When we are unable to receive food, we experience a physiological response that creates frustration, “ she says.However , she said the condition is easy to avert.”It is relatively easy to fight hunger when you are not experiencing food insecurity,“ Bustillos says.”We can make a conscious effort to control our hunger by 8 consuming small portions of nutrient-dense foods throughout the day.Bustillos also emphasizes the importance of making healthy decisions when dealing with stre and hunger.“ Many people engage in behaviors they can control when dealing with streful situations, she says.” Most often this translates into unhealthy stre eating.Managing the release of these hormones is eential.“ According to Bustillos' statements, we can learn that
when glucose levels become too low, stre hormones will be reduced when your brain lack glucose, people will be le likely to concentrate controlling our hunger is tough when you are experiencing food safety lack of food intake can make people feel energetic The underlined word in the fourth paragraph is closest in meaning to avoid B.change C.accept D.adopt
Based on the paage, the main reason of getting hungry is our brain being out of control B.the release of stre hormones C.a survival mechanism D.lack of food intake The paage is probably taken from
When going through major life changes, like changing careers, I would change the people with whom I spent the most time.We've all gone through periods when the people in our lives have changed—graduation, moving to a new city, getting a new job, etc.I don't think I need to convince you just how much influence other people can have over your identity.36 Most people don' t make these choices consciously, though.You might consciously decide to spend more time with a certain friend, or you may ask someone out on a date to begin a new relationship.37.Chance meetings may be out of control, but the strength or weakne of your existing is largely under your control.There's no ” getting rid of people“.People are always dropping into and out of each other's lives.Aociations grow into friendships, and friendships fade into aociations..The truth is that in order to make room for new people and new experiences, you may need to loosen up some of your existing connections.a newspaper advertisement B.a health care magazine C.a finance report D.a book reviewShouldn't you always be loyal to your friends? Once you have a close friend, even if his influence on you is slightly harmful, shouldn't you stick by him? The kinds of relationships I seek out today are those which have the potential to be win win.40.I'm always open and inviting of new friendships of this kind.It can take courage to tell someone, ”I'm sorry, but I can't have you in my life anymore.If you've experienced a switch in your people environment, then you know that you change as well.You don't get rid of anyone.D.Both people can help each other to grow in positive ways without holding each other back.What about loyalty?（But few people choose their existing friendships deliberately.Sometimes there are serious consequences, like with family members , but it's still a choice.Ever since I was a little girl, I wanted to be a police officer.Deep in my heart, I wanted to save people, to do right.But I was always an overweight kid and I felt body.As time went on, I didn't lose weight—1 42 it.At thirty-three, I was five feet two inches tall and 43 over 300 pounds.Needle to say, I hadn't become a police officer.I was too old, too heavy—it was too 44 to even consider.I was consumed with shame.But deep down, it was really

In October each year, there is a government-run project that encourage people to quit smoking.It is also suggested that a shocked health warning is attached to each side of all the packages.Once, in an interview, many people said that they learned a great deal of from the project and then decided to quit.So, if you are a smoker, why not joining the British and try to quit smoking now?
