(2016·江西省百校联盟联考)Listed here are four of the thousands of impressive museums around the world.

The Guggenheim Museum Bilbao in Bilbao, Spain

Built in 1997, the Guggenheim Museum Bilbao is one of the newest in the world. It has transformed the industrial city of Bilbao into a travelers' desired destination. The beautiful architecture of the museum has provided a dramatic background for movies and commercials.

The Louvre in Paris, France

Probably the most famous Louvre also holds the most famous painting in the world, the Mona Lisa by Leonardo da Vinci. Crowds can be found any day surrounding the small, but mysterious painting of the smiling woman. But, the Louvre is much more than a home to the Mona Lisa. The Louvre is visited by more people each year than any other museum in the world.

The Barnes Foundation in Philadelphia, America

Just opened in its new downtown location in 2012, the Barnes Foundation is unique in that it is a completely reproduced display from one man's private collection. Dr. Albert C. Barnes started collecting art in the early 20th century and collected, among others, the largest number of original Renoir paintings in the world.

The Uffizi Gallery in Florence, Italy

Walking on the marbled floors feels like stepping back in time. The building itself is a beautiful palace­like structure with frescoes (湿壁画) decorating the ceilings and walls. Viewers are bowled over (印象深刻) by the works by Botticelli, such as The Birth of Venus. Classic artworks from nearly 1,000 years ago describe religious events of the time.

(2016·石家庄市调研检测)During the two and a half years since I settled down in Germany, I've caught a cold several times and gotten to experience how different German cold remedies (疗法) are from the Chinese ones.

Back in Taiwan, whenever I had a streaming nose and a dry throat, I'd rush to the hospital to get prescribed medicine. For a fever, I would receive a red pill, which I now know is a type of antibiotic (抗生素).

Another thing I know now is that the criminal behind my cold is a virus. The drugs I used only relieved the symptoms.When I went to a German hospital intending to get some medicine to treat my cold, I got nothing more than a pat on my shoulder and words from the doctor, saying that I should get some really good rest. The first time this happened, I was shocked. I wondered how I could put up with my sickness without the help of medicine. But the longer I stayed in Germany, the better I knew how to self­medicate as other Germans do.

I learned to take vitamin C to build up my resistance. But what I like the most is drinking “Erkältungstee”. For German people, Erkältungstee is what their grandmother gives them when they catch a cold. It's a tea bag mainly made of lime flower and orange rind. Another popular cold remedy in Germany is chicken soup. During my first winter in Germany, I got a really bad cold. My neighbor brought me a bowl of chicken soup to make me feel better. It contained a lot of ginger, onion, garlic, carrots and celery. Germans believe these ingredients are perfect for helping your body recover.

4.How did the author feel after seeing the German doctor?

A.Relieved.      B.Surprised.

C.Satisfied. D.Stressed.

5.According to the author, what effect do antibiotics have on his cold?

A.They cure his cold.

B.They prevent the disease.

C.They kill the virus in him.

D.They make him feel better.

6.What do Germans think of “Erkältungstee”?

A.It can replace any cold remedy.

B.It can build up one's resistance.

C.It's a good way to self­medicate.

D.It's better than chicken soup.

7.What can we infer from the text?

A.Germans tend not to use antibiotics to treat a cold.

B.The author often catches a cold in Taiwan.

C.The author seldom drinks chicken soup.

D.German doctors are cold to patients.

(2016·东北三省四市教研联合体模拟)It's a familiar feeling. Your friend has made the team for Saturday's big game, and you take certain pleasure in telling him you can't be there to watch him play. You smile, but that voice in you asks, why him and not you?

Envy is a fault that we like to keep secret. It raises its ugly head when we focus on what we want but don't possess now, or we may even wish for and take pleasure in someone losing it. Feelings of unfairness are part of being human, but when you focus on them, you can never get out of your dark emotions. And that makes you feel bad.

So is there a solution? Is there anything you can do to stop the most ungenerous emotions?

Well, why not turn envy on its head, and make it the encouragement you need for self­improvement? The best weapon against envy is not to compete where you can't shine, but to do your absolute best where you can.

Start by making peace with yourself, and accept the gifts which make you unique. Make an agreement with yourself to be the best you can be. Then find out exactly the circumstances and qualities in others that start your envy. Is it someone's singing voice, their work promotion, or their new car? Envy shows us the things we'd like to have, so make a plan to earn what's important to you. Sign up for a night class. Start a training program. Give up a treat or two, and start saving for what you want.

And aim for real pleasure in the achievements and good fortune of others. Cheer on your friend when he scores that goal. Enjoy your best friend's wedding day. Then go out and do something special, and make you wonderfully proud of yourself.

8.The first paragraph is meant to ________.

A.give examples B.tell the main idea

C.introduce the topic D.ask the question

9.When envy appears, we actually ________.

A.ignore its existence

B.have feelings of unfairness

C.share it with friends

D.lose something of our own

10.What is the best way to help stop envy?

A.Developing your own strength to the full.

B.Competing for what you are not good at.

C.Forgetting about the things you can't get.

D.Trying to get anything that makes you envy.

11.What is the author's attitude towards people with envy?

A.Subjective. B.Objective.

C.Unconcerned. D.Worried.
