(暂时无确切答案回忆)
B By the middle of the 18th century there were enough eager child readers, and enough parents glad to cater to interest, for publishers to specialize in children’s books whose first aim was pleasure rather than education or morality. In Britain, a London merchant named Thomas Boreham produced Cajanus, The Swedish Giant in 1742, while the more famous John Newbery published A Little Pretty Pocket Book in 1744. Its contents—rhymes, stories, children’s games plus a free gift (‘A ball and a pincushion’)— in many ways anticipated the similar lucky-dip contents of children’s annuals this century. It is a tribute to Newbery’s flair that he hit upon a winning formula quite so quickly, to be pirated almost immediately in America.
C Such pleasing levity was not to last. Influenced by Rousseau, whose Emile (1762)decreed that all books children save Robinson Crusoe were a dangerous diversion, contemporary critics saw to it that children’s literature should be instructive and uplifting. Prominent among such voices was Mrs. Sarah Trimmer, whose magazine The Guardian of Education (1802) carried the first regular reviews of children’s books. It was she who condemned fairy-tales for their violence and general absurdity; her own stories, Fabulous Histories (1786)described talking animals who were always models of sense and decorum.
D. So the moral story for children was always threatened from within, given the way children have of drawing out entertainment from the sternest moralist. But the greatest blow to the improving children’s book was to come from an unlikely source indeed: early 19th-century interest in folklore. Both nursery rhymes, selected by James Orchard Halliwell for a folklore society in 1842, and collection of fairy-stories by the scholarly Grimm brothers, swiftly translated into English in 1823, soon rocket to popularity with the young, quickly leading to new editions, each one more child-centered than the last. From now on younger children could expect stories written for their particular interest and with the needs of their own limited experience of life kept well to the fore.
E What eventually determined the reading of older children was often not the availability of special children’s literature as such but access to books that contained characters, such as young people or animals, with whom they could more easily empathize, or action, such as exploring or fighting, that made few demands on adult maturity or understanding.
F The final apotheosis of literary childhood as something to be protected from unpleasant reality came with the arrival in the late 1930s of child-centered best-sellers intend on entertainment at its most escapist. In Britain novelist such as Enid Blyton and Richmal Crompton described children who were always free to have the most unlikely adventures, secure in the knowledge that nothing bad could ever happen to them in the end. The fact that war broke out again during her books’ greatest popularity fails to register at all in the self-enclosed world inhabited by Enid Blyton’s young characters. Reaction against such dream-worlds was inevitable after World War II, coinciding with the growth of paperback sales, children’s libraries and a new spirit of moral and social concern. Urged on by committed publishers and progressive librarians, writers slowly began to explore new areas of interest while also shifting the settings of their plots from the middle-class world to which their chiefly adult patrons had always previously belonged.
G Critical emphasis, during this development, has been divided. For some the most important task was to rid children’s books of the social prejudice and exclusiveness no longer found acceptable. Others concentrated more on the positive achievements of contemporary children’s literature. That writers of these works are now often recommended to the attentions of adult as well as child readers echoes the 19th-century belief that children’s literature can be shared by the generations, rather than being a defensive barrier between childhood and the necessary growth towards adult understanding.

Passage 1:题目:Deep sea fish题型:填空题7+判断题6文章大意:一个德国科学家在埃及红海潜水,想看看15m以下到底有没有红光(理论上是没有任何光线的)。结果在海地20m的地方看见了红色的鱼。即使取下红色滤光片用肉眼也可以看见。在这个深度不可能有光线,所以猜想是荧光,但是没有设备验证,只能尽可能多地拍照片。回德国之后证实了确实是荧光,50种鱼都有这种荧光,是皮下细胞里的晶体里发出的,不是晶体本身,可能是晶体里的荧光蛋白,这个蛋白可能是细菌制造的。鱼用这个红光来识别种群,标识位置,吓退敌人,掩盖自己,捕捉猎物。参考文章(仅供参考,非原文):
The fish of the deep-sea are among the strangest and most elusive creatures on Earth. In this deep unknown lie many unusual creatures that have yet to be studied. Since many of these fish live in regions where there is no natural rely solely on their eyesight for locating prey and mates and avoiding predators; deep-sea fish have evolved appropriately to the extreme sub-photic region in which they live. Many of these organisms are blind and rely on their other senses, such as sensitivities to changes in local pressure and smell, to catch their food and avoid being caught. Those that aren’t blind have large and sensitive eyes that can use bioluminescent light. These eyes can be as much as 100 times more sensitive to light than human eyes. Also, to avoid predation, many species are dark to blend in with their environment.
Many deep-sea fish are bioluminescent, with extremely large eyes adapted to the dark. Bioluminescent organisms are capable of producing light biologically through the agitation of molecules of luciferin, which then produce photons of light. This process must be done in the presence of oxygen. These organisms are common in the mesopelagic region and below (200m and below). More than 50% of deep-sea fish as well as some species of shrimp and squid are capable of bioluminescence. About 80% of these organisms have phosphors – light producing glandular cells that contain luminous bacteria bordered by dark colorings. Some of these phosphors contain lenses, much like those in the eyes of humans, which can intensify or lessen the emanation of light. The ability to produce light only requires 1% of the organism's energy and has many purposes: It is used to search for food and attract prey, like the anglerfish; claim territory through patrol; communicate and find a mate; and distract or temporarily blind predators to escape. Also, in the mesopelagic where some light still penetrates, some organisms camouflage themselves from predators below them by illuminating their bellies to match the color and intensity of light from above so that no shadow is cast. This tactic is known as counter illumination.
The life cycle of deep-sea fish can be exclusively deep
water although some species are born in shallower water and sink
uponmaturation. Regardless of the depth where eggs and larvae
reside, they are typically pelagic. This planktonic – drifting –
lifestyle requires neutral buoyancy. In order to maintain this, the
eggs and larvae often contain oil droplets in their plasma. When
these organisms are in their fully matured state they need other
adaptations to maintain their positions in the water column. In
general, water’s density causes up thrust – the aspect of buoyancy
that makes organisms float. To counteract this, the density of an
organism must be greater than that of the surrounding water. Most
animal tissues are denser than water, so they must find an
equilibrium to make them float. Many organisms develop swim
bladders (gas cavities) to stay afloat, but because of the high
pressure of their environment, deep-sea fishes usually do not have
this organ. Instead they exhibit structures similar to hydrofoils
in order to provide hydrodynamic lift. It has also been found that
the deeper a fish lives, the more jelly-like its flesh and the more
minimal its bone structure. They reduce their tissue density
through high fat content, reduction of skeletal weight –
accomplished through reductions of size, thickness, and mineral
content – and water accumulation makes them slower and less agile
than surface fish.Question 1-6判断题答案:1.T he expected to see darkness

Passage 2:
题目: American Cinema题型:配对题11+
选择题2文章大意:美国电影的发展史简介参考文章(仅供参考,非原文):The history of film is an account
of the historical development of the medium known variously as
cinema, motion pictures, film, or the movies. The history of film
spans over 100 years, from the latter part of the 19th century to
the present day. Motion pictures developed gradually from a
carnival novelty to one of the most important tools of
communication and entertainment, and mass median the 20th century
and into the 21st century. Most films before 1930 were silent.
Motion picture films have substantially affected arts, technology,
and politics. The cinema was invented during the 1890's, during
what is now called the industrial revolution. It was considered a
cheaper, simpler way to provide entertainment to the masses. Movies
would become the most popular visual art form of the late Victorian
age. It was simpler because of the fact that before the cinema
people would have to travel long distances to see major dioramas or
amusement parks. With the advent of the cinema this changed. During
the first decade of the cinema's existence, inventors worked to
improve the machines for making and showing films. The cinema is a
complicated medium, and before it could be invented, several
technological requirements had to be met.Question 15- 22答案:15.
