26、In the concert celebrating the Tsinghua University’s 110th anniversary, Fang Jinlong, a master of the traditional Chinese instrument pipa, and three robots from the Tsinghua Moja Robot Band performed several Chinese music pieces. “I’m happy to see our performance can mix science and technology with traditional Chinese culture,” said Fang.

The robot band was founded in 2018. The band name “Moja” is from Mohism, one of many schools of thought before the Qin Dynasty. It is made up of three robot musicians, Yuheng, Yaoguang and Kaiyang, named after three stars. They played three kinds of traditional Chinese instruments: the bamboo flute, Chinese harp and paigu, a set of Chinese drums, at the concert. The team behind the band include students, teachers and graduates from Tsinghua University. They have professional backgrounds such as computing, mechanical engineering and music composition (作曲).

The team’s chief scientist Mi Haipeng is an associate professor at the Academy of Fine Arts in Tsinghua. He took part in the research and development of a robot rock band when he studied in Japan. That experience inspired his dream to make a Chinese robot band.

Mi said traditional Chinese instruments’ sound and playing techniques are different from those of Western musical instruments. The focus is more on the artistic conception (概念) and expression of the players. This kind of non-quantitative (非定量的) control brings challenges to Moja robot development. “In our research, we continuously explore how to solve these problems so that the robots can maintain the Chinese traditional characteristics when playing music,” he added.

Mi said the music pieces in the concert were specially made for the robots to play. The robots’ stage clothes were made with 3D-printing technology. He added that there are more performance plans for Moja in the future, introducing new music pieces. The team, meanwhile, would improve the musical expression of the robots.

【1】What is the performance like according to Fang Jinlong?

A．Traditional yet creative.

B．Fancy and fashionable.

C．Virtual yet accessible.

D．Unique and fast-paced.

【2】What can we learn about the band?

A．It has a stable performing style.

B．Its name came from online language.

C．It successfully mixes high-tech and tradition.

D．Its performers play western musical instruments.

【3】Where can you find the difficulty of the band’s development?

A．In paragraph 2.

B．In paragraph 3.

C．In paragraph 4.

D．In paragraph 5.

【4】What will the developers do in the future?

A．Create more new robot musicians.

B．Get the robots to practise more often.

C．Design new clothes for the robots.

D．Improve the robots’ musical performance.

27、Pop music is the name for different forms of popular, commercial (商业) music. It had its beginning in the USA and spread throughout the whole world during the 1950s and 1960s. It is widely liked by the young people. The best known early form of pop music was “rock’ n’ roll”; another was “blues”. A more recent development is “folk-rock”.

Pop music has taken the place of native music in many parts of the world; it has caused the number of people for jazz to become much smaller than it was in the 1950s and earlier, and it has now begun to rule musical stage productions. It’s a big industry. Much pop music is without artistic value, but the work of some pop singers, e.g. the Beatles, Bob Dylan, the groups like Floyd and Crosby, Stills and Nash, is on a higher musical level. And there is still a great interest in it today. Pop music concerts and festivals take place all over the world.

【1】Which of the following forms doesn’t belong to pop music _____.

A．blues

B．rock’ n’ roll

C．jazz

D．folk-rock

【2】According to the article, the number of people for jazz in the 1950s and earlier was _____ it is today.

A．much greater than

B．much smaller than

C．as great as

D．as small as

【3】Which of the following is TRUE?

A．No pop music is on a high musical level.

B．Much pop music is very artistic.

C．Pop music is highly artistic.

D．Not all pop music is without artistic value.

【4】“It is a big industry” means that _____.

A．it makes a lot of musical instruments

B．it is a big musical and commercial business

D．pop music is on a very high musical level

28、A school in the UK is giving boys lessons in zumba and ballet to encourage the idea that PE is gender neutral (不分性别的). Steve Frenzel, a school officer, says that boys should be offered different activities in sport including dance. They should see dance as something they can enjoy just as much as girls.

However, giving boys more choices will not solve the problem of girls' disengagement (不参与) with sport, since for years, girls have been kept from playing sport like football and cricket.

A research done by Women in Sport showed that girls begin to lose interest in sport when they are as young as six. “At around the age of six or seven girls start to drop out of sport. What is interesting is that this is the same time that boys start doing more,” said Ruth Holdaway, the chief executive of Women in Sport. “What seems to be happening is up until that age, boys and girls feel the same—they just run around, they don't think about what they are doing, they will explore, they will climb.”

Teachers should not make any assumptions (假定) about which sport girls or boys would like to play. Often teachers will be surprised if they ask girls what they want. There will be an assumption that they want to do dance and many of them will, but they might also want to play football or cricket.

Other steps schools can take to encourage girls to play sport could include making adaptations (适应性变化) to changing rooms.

Girls may think, “If I am going to get hot and sweaty, I need to put my hair up, I need to take it back down, and if I don't have a mirror, I can't do that.”

Small changes like allowing girls more time in the changing rooms, and putting up mirrors, may encourage them to run around and get hot and sweaty during PE lessons.

【1】The school mentioned in Paragraph 1 is ______.

A．training boys to be dancers

B．opening dance classes for special-needs students

C．offering boys chances to do all kinds of sport

D．encouraging boys to be more active in PE classes

【2】What did the research by Women in Sport show?

A．Boys get recognized for doing sport.

B．Girls lose interest in sport at a very young age.

C．Boys are born with greater interest in sport than girls.

D．Girls are more willing to do dance as they grow older.

【3】What's the author's purpose in writing the text?

A．To introduce a research finding.

B．To praise efforts made by a school.

C．To describe some sports events.

D．To discuss some possible solutions.

29、Expect More from Your Memory

How many African countries can you remember? Try to say as many as you can before reading on

There are 54 countries in Africa. If you got them all, well done! Hardly anyone does, of course. But most people could have gotten more than they did. Motivation is a big part of memory. Be honest: if there had been a big prize of this task, wouldn’t you have pushed yourself a bit more? 【1】And, since most people don’t expect much from their memory, they limit their chances of success from the word go.

Not everyone, though. When people get competitive about memory, they do amazing things. Back in the 1980s, I broke a world record by memorizing six packs of playing cards.【2】Psychologist Carol Dweck popularized the “growth mindset”   — the belief that you can keep improving your abilities, with commitment. Here are four ways to use that approach.

Step 1: Admit what you’re good at. Think about the things that you remember with ease. There’s no reason why your memory can’t work that well all the time.

Step 2: 【3】 Notice people who seem to have a clever trick for names, or manage to hold their to-do list in their head. See if you can spot some of their secrets.

Step 3: Find ways to get better. Any information can be made more memorable by organizing it effectively, and using your imagination.【4】

Step 4: Practise: Take every opportunity to use your memory. Stretch it a little each day by setting yourself challenges.

Now, go back to the challenge at the beginning. Push yourself to do better, and really believe that you can.

A．Practice more!

B．Watch how others do it.

C．But self-belief is often an even bigger factor.

D．Now, the record is 37 packs-in just one hour.

E．Experiment with a range of creative memory techniques.

F．People always limit their abilities for lack of confidence.
