26、Homestay provides English language learners with the opportunity to speak English outside the classroom and the experience of being part of a British home.

What to Expect

The host will provide accommodation and meals. Rooms will be cleaned and bedcovers will be changed at least once a week. You will be given the house key and the host is there to offer help and advice as well as to take an interest in your physical and mental health.

Accommodation Zones

Homestays are located in London mainly in Zones 2, 3 and 4 of the transport system. Most hosts do not live in the town centre as much of central London is commercial and not residential (居住的). Zones 3 and 4 often offer larger accommodation in a less crowded area. It is very convenient to travel in London by Underground.

Meal Plans Available

◇Continental Breakfast

◇Breakfast and Dinner

◇Breakfast, Packed Lunch and Dinner

It’s important to note that few English families still provide a traditional cooked breakfast. Your accommodation includes Continental Breakfast which normally consists of fruit juice, cereal (谷类早餐食物), bread and tea or coffee. Cheese, fruit and cold meat are not normally part of a Continental Breakfast in England. Dinners usually consist of meat or fish with vegetables followed by dessert, fruit and coffee.

Friends

If you wish to invite a friend over to visit, you must first ask your host’s permission. You have no right to entertain friends in a family home as some families feel it is an invasion of their privacy.

Self-Catering Accommodation in Private Homes

Accommodation on a room only basis includes shared kitchen and bathroom facilities and often a main living room. This kind of accommodation offers an independent lifestyle and is more suitable for the long stay students. However, it does not provide the same family atmosphere as an ordinary homestay and may not benefit those who need to practise English at home quite as much.

【1】The passage is probably written for________.

A．hosts willing to receive foreign students

B．foreigners hoping to build British culture

C．travellers planning to visit families in London

D．English learners applying to live in English homes

27、Three French students，using the name “Obvious”， have produced the first artwork created mainly by a computer program to be sold at auction (拍卖). Using artificial intelligence (AI)，Obvious created 11 portraits (肖像画) of an imaginary family they called Belamy.

Obvious used 15,000 real portraits to train an AI program which has two parts.One part tries to create pictures that look real.The other part judges the work.If the portrait doesn’t look real enough，the first part goes back and changes its decisions until it comes up with a better picture.These decisions are controlled by an algorithm (计算程序). The students made many choices，helping guide the AI’s decisions.But even so，the painting is “signed”by the algorithm，instead of the students.

On October 25，Obvious’s picture，Edmond de Belamy，was sold at auction at Christie’s in New York.The final price for Edmond de Belamy was $432,500—about ten times more than Christie’s expected.

This is not the first AI artwork，just the first one sold at auction.In fact，many people are not impressed with the portrait.“The work isn’t interesting，or original，”says 19­year­old Robbie Barrat.He should know.He wrote much of the program that created the pictures.

But he doesn’t like the idea of Obvious selling the picture.He thinks it’s too simple and gives a bad idea of what real AI artists are doing.He points out that he created many pictures like these over a year ago.

Obvious doesn’t hide the fact that it used Mr.Barrat’s work，or even that its portrait is not the best AI artwork ever.Pierre Fautrel of Obvious said，“...the goal of our project was to do something that was simple enough for...my mother or brother to understand.”

Obvious got the attention of Christie’s by selling another work，Le Comte de Belamy，for over $11,000 in February. One reason Christie’s chose to auction Obvious’s work is because AI art is unusual now.In the future it will be much more common.

【1】What does Paragraph 2 mainly explain?

A．How Obvious made its decisions.

B．How Obvious named its AI artwork.

C．How Obvious’s AI program did paintings.

D．How Obvious got the idea to become AI artists.

【2】What can we learn about Edmond de Belamy?

A．It’s Obvious’s first AI artwork.

B．It’s Obvious’s best AI artwork ever.

C．It’s the first AI artwork highly praised.

D．It’s the first AI artwork sold at auction.

【3】What does Robbie Barrat think of the AI artwork sold at auction?

A．It is of little artistic value.

B．It is worth more than the price paid.

C．It is a good example of real AI artwork.

D．It is hard for common people to understand.

【4】How does Christie’s feel about AI art now?

A．Worrying.

B．Enjoyable.

C．Meaningless.

D．Money­making.

28、The Forbidden City is well known for being full of Chinese cultural and historical relics. But Masters in the Forbidden City (《我在故宫修文物》) does not just focus on the stories of the past. Instead, the documentary movie, which came out in Chinese cinemas on   16 December, focuses on ordinary people — the restorers of relics and antiquities (古董).

The stories are told at a slow and relaxed pace, reflecting the restorers’ work. Restoration of cultural relics and antiques can be time-consuming, and sometimes boring. Yet these restorers’ patience and peace of mind are especially precious in a society where everything is changing so fast.

“If you choose this job, you have to stand hours of work sitting on a chair. You need to be quiet and get used to being quiet,” says Wang Jin, an ancient clock repair expert.

A touching part of the documentary is the spirit of craftsmanship in the restorers. “Years of humdrum   work   requires   not   only   skill,   but   also   faith   and   spirit,”   China   Daily   commented. “Looking for preciseness and   perfection, devoting yourself to work, patience, endurance, loneliness... all these qualities come from the craftsman spirit. ”

But unlike the popular idea of serious experts who sit around being   serious, the documentary shows off the enthusiasm of the restorers. They play their guitars and make jokes about each other after a long day of restoration work.

One scene that has been very popular with Internet users features a young female restorer riding a bicycle through the empty Forbidden City on a Monday. While she is doing this, a narrator says, “The last person to do this was Pu Yi, the last emperor of the Qing Dynasty.”

Masters   in   the   Forbidden   City has proved many people’s wrong ideas about antique restorers, allowing them to realise that they are not old, dull professors, but people in their 40s, 30s and even 20s who can be quite pleasing to the eye.

【1】Why is the documentary movie made?

A．To show people how antiques are restored.

B．To display relics seldom seen by ordinary people.

C．To draw attention to Chinese antique restorers’ lives.

D．To praise the craftsmanship of Chinese antique restorers.

【2】What does Wang Jin mean in paragraph 3?

A．He often gets tired with his work.

B．There is no need to do restoration work fast.

C．Antique restorers need to be patient and peaceful.

D．It takes years of hard work to adapt to antique restoration.

【3】What does the underlined word “humdrum” most probably mean?

A．Boring.

B．Different.

C．Relaxing.

D．Unusual.

【4】What’s the purpose of the bicycle-riding scene in the movie?

A．To remind the audience of the last Qing emperor.

B．To show the strange hobbies of young antique restorers.

C．To encourage the young to consider a career in antique restoration in the future.

D．To show that the documentary breaks from the old, dull image of antique restorers.

I sure hope you make time to sit on a porch with your grandpa or go fishing with your uncle.I hope your mother punishes you when you throw a baseball through a neighbor’s window,and that she hugs you and kisses you when you give her a plaster of pared mold of your hand.
