Dress up in costumes
By Calvin Pollak
穿上夸张搞怪的服饰欢度万圣节。
ON Oct 31 in the US,
people won’t be too surprised if they fail to
recognize their best friends, parents,
children or co-workers. “Is that President
Obama?” you might ask – until you notice the
freckle
(雀斑)
on his
left cheek and
realize it’s just your teacher, Mr Jones. It’s
Halloween, and he’s wearing an Obama costume.
“Let me be clear – you must take out your
homework,” he says in a perfect impression of the
president’s
voice, and the whole class laughs.
For creative people, designing a costume is
the best part of Halloween. Almost everyone does
it, so it’s
an accepted way of expressing
imagination and humor. While I haven’t worked as
hard on my costumes in
recent years, as a kid
I took them very seriously.
When I was in the
second grade, I – like most kids – loved to eat at
McDonald’s. So in September, with
Halloween
around the corner, my mom and I decided to design
a life-sized box of McDonald’s french fries
for me to wear as a costume. We used cardboard
to make the box and foam
(泡沫塑料)
for the
fries – my head
poked out from in between two
of them. It’s a good thing I ate so much Halloween
candy that year, because
looking at myself
made me really hungry.
A few years later,
after reading the first Harry Potter book, I knew
that I wanted to dress up as Harry. So I
got
my hair cut to his exact length and style; my mom
drew a scar
(伤疤)
across my forehead
(前额)
; we
designed a wand and a
broomstick
(扫帚)
; and we even found
circular glasses and robes in Gryffindor’s colors
for me to wear. Almost no one knew who I was
that year, but the following year almost every kid
dressed up
in Harry Potter costumes. That made
me feel pretty cool.
This year, my friend and
I are planning to dress up as Raj and Howard from
the hit US sitcom The Big
Bang Theory
(《生活大爆炸》)
. Which costume will you wear on Oct
31?
1. We can learn from the first paragraph
that ______.
A. Mr Jones wanted to make fun
of President Obama
B. students at the
author’s school had no homework on Halloween
C. Americans are used to seeing others wearing
strange costumes on Halloween
D. American
students are allowed to make fun of their teachers
on Halloween
2. Which of the following might
the author agree with?
A. Designing Halloween
costumes is a job only meant for creative people.
B. It is not worth putting too much time and
money into designing Halloween costumes.
C.
People get great satisfaction when their Halloween
costumes are appreciated or copied by others.
D. People lose interest in Halloween costumes when
they become adults.
3. In total, how many
different Halloween costumes did the author
mention in the article?
A. 2 B. 3 C. 4
D. 5
4. What is the main idea of the article?
A. The popular Halloween costumes in the US
are all inspired by books.
B. All people
should design and make Halloween costumes on their
own.
C. The tradition of making Halloween
costumes comes from the US.
D. Creative
Americans like to design and wear Halloween
costumes.
2. Our lives and our
songs
音乐喜好会随年龄改变吗？
DO you ever
listen to the songs that your parents like?
Chances are that you don’t.① You probably think
the music that they like is old and dull and
that the songs on your playlist are much cooler.
But here is what scientists found recently:
people’s music tastes change as they age,
according to a study
published in the Journal
of Personality and Social Psychology. So it is
likely that your own musical
preferences will
follow a similar path to your parents’, whether
you like it or not.
We used to think that
culture and personality are the only factors
(因素)
that affect one’s music choice. But
researchers at the University of Cambridge,
UK, gathered data from more than 250,000 people
over the past
10 years. They noticed that as
people age, their social circumstances
(环境)
change, and so does their music
taste.
There are three musical periods
that people pass through as they mature –
“intense
(热情的)
” ,
“contemporary” and
“sophisticated
(深奥微妙的)
”.
The first
period comes in the teenage years, during which
people like intense music such as punk and rock
because teenagers tend to be aggressive and
want to establish their identities as independent
individuals.
But as people move into early
adulthood, their lifestyle changes – they
socialize
(社交)
more and want to
build
close relationships with others. As a result, they
become more fond of contemporary music, such as
pop and R&B, which is usually uplifting and
danceable
and played at parties where people
hang out together
and chat.
When middle
age comes, things have settled down for most
people. This period will be dominated
(支配)
by
more “sophisticated” music, such as
jazz and classical,
as well as more catchy
music like country, folk and blues.
“For many,
this life stage is frequently exhausted
(使筋疲力尽)
by work and family, and there is a
requirement
for relaxing, emotive
(动情的)
music,” Jason Rentfrow, a research member,
told The Telegraph.
But you must be thinking:
“Aren’t there old people who are still into rock
music?”
Of course there are. But Rentfrow
explained that their reasons for listening to rock
music may have
changed.② “We use music for
different reasons,” he said, and thus at that age
people may listen to remind
themselves of
their youths.
1. According to researchers at
the University of Cambridge, ______.
A.
children don’t like the songs that their parents
like because they are too hard to understand
B. people from different cultural backgrounds have
different tastes in music
C. people’s music
preferences have deep connections with their
social lives
D. children are influenced by
their parents in terms of the types of music they
listen to
2. The underlined word “mature” in
Paragraph 4 probably means ______.
A. make
new friends B. grow into
adulthood
C. move to an unfamiliar
neighborhood D. understand their parents more
3. Which of the following statements about
musical periods is TRUE according to the article?
A. People in their teenage years prefer pop
music to rock music.
B. Jazz and classical
music help adults develop their identities.
C. Pop and blues are dull and boring in the eyes
of most middle- aged people.
D. People’s
music tastes tend to settle down as they age.
4. What is the main purpose of the article?
A. To present a new study about how people’s
music tastes change.
B. To explain why
parents and children don’t share music
preferences.
C. To show how music helps shape
people’s social lives.
D. To discuss research
into the varied factors that determine people’s
music tastes.

Helpful ‘stranger’
I WAS walking down a dimly
(昏暗地)
lit
street one evening when I heard screams coming
from behind
some bushes
(灌木丛)
.
Alarmed, I slowed down to listen, and panicked
when I realized that what I was
hearing were
the sounds of a struggle. Only yards from where I
stood, a woman was being attacked
(袭击)
.
“Should I get involved?” I thought.
I was
frightened for my own safety, and I hated myself
for having suddenly decided to take a new route
home that night. “What if I’m hurt too?①
Shouldn’t I just run to the nearest phone and call
the police?”
Although it felt like an
eternity, my thought process had only taken
seconds. But already the girl’s cries were
growing weaker.
I knew I had to act fast.
“How can I walk away from this?” I asked myself.
“No”, I finally resolved
(决心)
. “I
cannot turn my back on the fate of this unknown
woman, even if it
means risking my own life.②”
I am not a brave man, nor am I athletic. I
don’t know where I found the moral
(道德)
,
courage and
physical strength, but once I had
finally decided to help the girl, I became
suddenly changed.
I ran behind the bushes and
pulled the attacker off the woman. Struggling, we
fell to the ground, where
we fought for a few
minutes until the man jumped up and escaped.
Breathing heavily, I got to my feet and approached
the girl, who was sobbing behind a tree. In the
darkness, I could barely see her outline
(轮廓)
, but I could certainly sense her
trembling shock. Not wanting to
frighten her
any further, I at first spoke to her from a
distance.
“It’s OK,” I said soothingly. “The
man ran away. You’re safe now.”
There was a
long pause
(停顿)
and then I heard the
words, uttered
(说)
in wonder, in
amazement.
“Dad, is that you?”
And then,
from behind the tree, stepped my youngest
daughter, Katherine.
1. Before the author got
involved in the rescue of the woman, he ______.
A. was on his way to pick up his daughter
B. was going back home via an unfamiliar route
C. had been trying to find his way in the
neighborhood D. thought he lived in a safe and
lovely neighborhood
2. The underlined word
“it” in Paragraph 4 refers to ______.
A. the
scream of the woman B. the time when the
author was thinking
C. the author’s fear of
his own safety D. the time it took to find the
nearest phone
3. Which of the following
statements is TRUE according to the article?
A. The author caught the attacker because of his
strength.
B. The author cried loudly to scare
the attacker off.
C. The author left silently
after he had made sure that the woman was all
right.
D. The author was surprised by whom he
had saved.
4. Which of the following words
best describes the author? A. Calm. B. Curious.
C. Patient. D. Honorable.

4. Don’t be afraid of the news
By Laura
Chen新闻写作原来并不枯燥。
WHEN I first joined my
school’s newspaper, the Smoke Signal, people often
asked me:, “What section
(部分)
do you
want to write for?” “Opinion,” I would answer.
Funnily enough, one of the biggest surprises
I’ve experienced while writing for the paper
has been how hard it is for me to write opinion
articles. My
desire to thoroughly
(充分地)
research the facts behind an
argument keeps me from sticking to one side or the
other.
I always thought the News section
was too boring, so I never imagined that it would
become my favorite
section. However, the more
News stories I wrote, the more I enjoyed reporting
on current events.
News writing is not
a retelling of the facts, as I had believed it
was, but rather a form of communication
that
requires forethought
(远见)
and decisiveness
(果断)
– which makes it a fun challenge.
When I realized how
dangerously easy it was to
leave out important details
(细节)
, I
decided to start writing each story by first
posing
(提出)
questions that readers
might ask. This didn’t only help me communicate
from more logical and
complete perspectives
(视角)
– the questions also came in handy
when I was conducting interviews for the
stories.
As the year went on, I also
became fascinated by how fluid news coverage could
be. Even if a story is on
the budget board
(where we write all the stories and their
deadlines
(截止日期)
), it might be scrapped
(抛弃)
at
the last minute if a more
newsworthy story appears or if another story turns
out to require more space. I
admire my editors
for handling these situations decisively.
Once I got the chance to familiarize myself with
News, I grew to love it. Now, before making a
decision
about myself – whether it’s my
favorite color or which college I want to attend –
I know that it’s okay to say:
“I don’t know
yet.” My preferences still might change as I learn
new things. I never really know myself as
well
as I think I do, and that’s all the more reason to
keep exploring.
1. Why does the author find it
hard to write opinion articles? (No more than 15
words)
2. What is the author’s favorite
section at her school’s newspaper? (No more than 3
words)
3. How does raising questions about
the topic help the author with her writing? (No
more than 15 words)
4. What can the
underlined word “fluid” in Paragraph 3 possibly
mean? (No more than 3 words)
5. How has news
writing influenced the author’s opinion of her
life? (No more than 18 words)

BBDD①要是我也受伤了怎么办？分析： What

②我不能不帮助这个陌生女人，即便那意味

back on的意思是“忽略、避开或拒绝接受”。例如：He turned his back on

he became famous. Even

facts, she loses interest in choosing one side. 2.
