Although Tong failed in his job-hunt, he felt less frustrated after visiting the festival at the invitation of a friend. "It was the first time that I saw so many crazy people gathered together. When the music reached a climax, people kept yelling, jumping and bumping each other. You felt excited even if you weren"t as high as they were," recalled Tong.
Midi, which is held May 1-4, started in 1999 and has grown into China"s largest outdoor music festival. The festival is named after Beijing"s Midi Music School, which started the event. This year"s festival will have 84 bands, 22 of them foreign. It will be held in Haidian Park, northwest Beijing.
Outdoor music festivals have been around for decades in the West. They often stand for a kind of different belief. The Woodstock Festival in the US in 1969 is an example. It took place while the US was involved in the Vietnam war and was used to express young people’s love of peace.
China"s Midi has become a good place for young people as well. "The biggest attraction of Midi is that it is an event for all young people, whether they know rock or not. They can come and have fun together," says Li Wei, a general manager of Beijing Midi Performance Company, the festival organizer.“ Besides,the open environment of an outdoor festival attracts young people. Without the restrictions of seats and walls, people are more likely to relax themselves. There"s often more interaction between the audience and performers.”

答案

小题3:D
小题4:D
小题5:C
解析
小题1:主旨大意题。 本文由Tong Zhuo参加北京Midi 音乐节谈起,紧接着介绍了的一些基本情况和以及它的受青年人欢迎的原因, 故A项为正确答案。
小题2:细节理解题。由第一段 “He was trying to get in touch with friends on MSN to arrange a trip to the annual Midi Music Festival in Beijing during the holiday.”可知答案为B。
小题3:正误判断题。由文中第五段 “The biggest attraction of Midi is that it is an event for all young people, whether they know rock or not.”可以判断D项表述有误,符合题意。根据第一段最后一句中的 “the annual(每年的)Midi Music Festival” 可知A项正确;B、C两项可以分别从第二段和第三段中找到依据。
小题4:归纳概括题。由最后一段我们可以归纳出A、B、C三项均是Midi Music受青年人喜欢的原因。文章中谈到了Midi Music在西方国家也受青年人的青睐,但不能作为中国青年人喜欢Midi Music的原因。故答案为D。
小题5:推理判断题。我们由第四段可以推出,作者提及The Woodstock Festival,是为了说明青年人可以通过这个节日表达自己的对社会和国家的不同看法。

Unfortunately, these systems are starting to break down. It’s not just in Yosemite but in national parks around the nation.
Yosemite is thirty years old according to Dennis Galvin, a National Park Service worker. The Park is not only old but worn out. Two or three times as many visitors come every year. That is too many visitors for the park to deal with.
Four years ago a storm washed out a water pipeline in the Grand Canyon. The National Park Service had to send water trucks to provide water for the visitors. Last month pipes almost broke again and roads had to be closed for a while.
Why hasn’t the National Park Service kept up the park repairs? There is a lack of money. The United States has 378 monuments, parks, and wilderness areas. Between three and four billion dollars are needed for repairs.
Yosemite is one national park that does have money for repairs. It has two hundred million dollars but cannot spend it any way it chooses. When the park workers started widening the road, they were forced to stop by the Sierra Club. The club claimed that the road work was damaging the Merced River that runs through the park.
A sierra Club lawyer, Julia Olson, feels that the infrastructure needs to be moved out of Yosemite. That way less pressure will be put on the already crowded park.
小题1:According to the text, the mountains in Yosemite look most splendid when they are
appreciated from ______.
A.the bottom of the valleys | B.the top of the mountains |
C.the side of the mountains | D.the edge of the valleys |
visitors because ______.
A.their transport management needs improving |
B.they spend too much on their service systems |
C.their service systems frequently go out of order |
D.they need help from environmental organizations |
A.rundown water pipes | B.overcrowdedness |
C.lack of money | D.narrow roads |
A.an environmental group | B.an information center |
C.a travel service | D.a law firm |
“I’m a doctor and it’s my duty to cure diseases and save live,” said the 77-year- old grandmother. Gao was named one of the 2003 People of Year on February 20 by CCTV after millions of people took part in an online poll. But in 1996, when she started to promote AIDS awareness, using money from her own pocket, her actions were widely misunderstood.
“Although some of the children were born with HIV, 90 percent of them were not infected (被感染),” Gao said. “But people still reject them. Many orphans change their names after finding a foster family (领养家庭).”
The horror of Henan’s AIDS problem became known in 1996. Frequent and unsafe bloodselling by poor farmers in the late 1980s and early1990s had caused HIV to spread through dirty needles and infected blood use. As a doctor, Gao believed she should help: over the last eight years she has visited over 1 000 AIDS and HIV patients and published thousands of pamphlets on AIDS awareness. With her help, hundreds of orphans have returned to school or found foster families.
“It’s a disaster for the whole nation, not only for those innocent (无辜的) patients and their families,” she explained. Gao is delighted that so many childless families offer to foster orphans. But there is still much that can be done to support these children. “I hope that warm-hearted high school students will also reach out and offer a helping hand,” she said.
小题1:The passage mainly talks about _______.
the dangers of AIDS
how the government help those orphans
how Gao Yaojie helped the orphans
the serious AIDS problem in Henan
小题2: Gao Yaojie was named one of the 2003 People of Year because ________.
the government would not answer the children’s cry without her
she used her own money to start to promote AIDS
she is a doctor
she visited over 1 000 AIDS and HIV patients
小题3:The government promised 60 million yuan _______.
to reward Gao Yaojie
to help to treat HIV and AIDS patients
to help the children whose parents died of AIDS
to build new hospitals
There are a number of ways in which mass media make daily life easier for us. First, they inform and help us keep a watch on our world. They gather and pass on information we would be unlikely or unable to gain on our own.
Second, mass media help us to arrange our time and life. What we talk about and what we think about are greatly influenced by the media. When people get together, they tend to talk about certain happenings on the newspapers or on TV. Because we are provided with differing points of view through different kinds of media every day, we are able to comment on all sides of a certain issue.
Third, mass media help us to connect with various groups in society. Through mass media, we are able to keep in contact with politicians in the world; with famous actors and actresses, and with our beloved singers.
Fourth, the media help to socialize us. We learn about the preferred behavior and values from the people we meet as well as from the media. Through portrayals of people, the media tell us what proper behaviors are. By doing so, they teach us standards of behavior and values, and help us in our daily life.
Fifth, the media are used to persuade people. A good example is advertisements through the media. Newspapers, magazines and TV are filled with all kinds of colorful, persuasive advertisements. Though many advertisements may not say openly that they want you to buy a certain product, they describe their products in such a way that you may want to but them.
Sixth, the media entertain. All of the media make some effort trying to entertain their audience. For example, even though the newspaper is a main medium of information, it also contains entertainment features. Many newspapers offer their readers at least some of the following: comics, fiction books and puzzle games, televisions and magazines are devoted mainly to entertainment. It is guessed that in the future, the entertainment function of mass media will become even more important than it is now.
小题1:They underlined word “scattered” in paragraph 1 means______.
A.faraway | B.nearly | C.a small number of | D.small and far apart |
A.photograph | B.words | C.description | D.clothes |
A.Mass media have an effect on our speech and thoughts. |
B.Mass media keep us informed and connected. |
C.Mass media persuade us into buying what we don’t need at all. |
D.Mass media help us spend time with others in a friendly way. |
A.entertainment | B.sports | C.famous people | D.advertisements |
A.Mobile phone | B.Computer | C.Radio | D.Television |
I think most immigrants are trying to preserve their native language in their new country, but this doesn’t help very much in getting a good job. My aunt taught Korean to her children not to help hem succeed in the U.S. she did so, hopefully, to help them establish a Korean identity. Though the second generation was born in the new country, they often get confused about their identity because they look different from others, and also, if they visit their parents’ country, they will probably feel different from other people there too. My cousins told me that when they visited Korea a few years ago, they felt different from other Koreans. They could even feel it just strolling around the street because they wore different clothes and walked differently.
We must realize that language is important and valuable for many reasons. Immigrants should make an effort not to be ignored by their children understand their background by teaching them the parents’ language. This is very important, not only for the harmony of the family, but also in helping the second generation establish their identity.

A.They have lost their identity. |
B.Their children are losing their identity. |
C.Their children speak different languages. |
D.They cannot speak their native language. |
A.so that they knew they were of Korean origin |
B.so that they would be more successful in the U.S. |
C.because she didn’t want them to speak English |
D.because she wanted them to respect her |
A.had never been there before | B.behaved quite differently |
C.couldn’t understand the language | D.had different facial appearance |
A. it gives them self-confidence and better chance
B. t makes the second generation love motherland
C. it helps the second generation to understand their parents
D. it strengthens the family ties and reminds them of their identity (BCABD)
