Read the following three passages. Each
passage is followed by several questions or
unfinished statements. For each of them
there are four choices marked A, B, C and D.
Choose the
one that fits best according
to the information given in the passage you have
read.
(B)
Virtual reality
Probably
the
most
exciting
tech
development
of
recent
times,
virtual reality (VR) has arrived, with
sufficient options available to the
consumer who’s searching for an extra
amount of high
-tech fun. The
cheapest
way
to
get
a
high-end
VR
experience
comes
courtesy
of
Sony.
Its
PlayStation
VR
doesn’t
require
a
tricked
-out
PC
or
expensive phone
–
it works with the
Playstation 4 control board and
comes
with a few great games in its library. There is
some equipment you can purchase to enhance
the experience, but if you’ve already
got a PS4 you can enter the world of VR for just
$$400. Other
high-
end
offerings like the HTC Vive and Oculus Rift, as
well as mobile options like Samsung’s
Gear VR, will get your head in the
game.
Wireless headphones
Combining
ease
of
use
with
the
ability
to
move
wild
around
your
home,
gym or workplace,
wireless headphones just make sense. And there are
plenty
of
practical
options
to
suit
any
budget.
The
Bose
QuietComfort
35
wireless
headphones are definitely worth a test
drive, though. The full-size, around-ear
Bluetooth
headphones
highlight
active
noise
cancellation
and
double
as
a
headset
for
making
phone calls. They’ve
even earned the Editor’s Choice award at
Cnet
com and can be purchased for
less than $$400 online.
Digital cameras
While your phone is a worthy assistant,
there’s no substitute for a real
camera
when it comes to taking the perfect picture. And
these days
you
can get
quality specifications in a package
that’
s almost as small as your

smartphone. The shiny design of the
Fujifilm X70, $$699, makes it the perfect
companion, or you
could go retro with
the Olympus PEN-F ($$1,200) that offers old school
looks alongside cutting
edge
technology.
Domestically,
it’s
worth
checking
out
Xiaomi’s
mirrorless
Yi
M1
for
a
more
affordable
option. With a high-end 20-
megapixel
（兆像素）
sensor and the ability to
host multiple
lenses, it’s available
from just 2,199 yuan.
60. Sony can provide high-tech fun at
the lowest cost because __________.
A. players can play free
games online
C. it gives
players adequate experience
B. PS4 owners
don’t need any other device
D. players have purchased expensive PCs
61. What is Bose QuietComfort 35
wireless headphones’ selling point promoted
i
n the passage?
A. They have various types to meet
users’ needs.
B. Users can
reduce noise manually.
C. They work better in the wild.
D. Users can make phone calls with the
headphones.

The idea of using radio or wireless to
broadcast to audiences was formed in
1916
by
a
president
of
the
American
Marconi
Company,
David
Sarnoff.
His
superiors were doubtful about his idea
to “make radio a household cause, so that

by
purch
ase of a ‘radio music box’, the
audience could enjoy lectures, music performance,
etc.”
Four years later the
American engineer Frank Conrad, an employee at W E
Corp, attracted
considerable
attention
when
a
local
newspaper
reported
on
the
growing
audience
listening
on
crystal
radio
sets
to
his
evening
and
weekend
amateur
broadcasts.
A
local
music
store
had
provided records to play
on the Victoria, and Conrad and his family served
as
disc jockeys
(

).
Westinghouse
vice
president
Harry
Davis
asked
Conrad
to
build
a
more
powerful <

transmitter
(
发射台
)in time to announce the outcome of the
next US presidential election. Conrad
completed his assignment, and on
November 2, 1920, station KDKA in Pittsburgh,
Pennsylvania,
broadcast
the
announcement
that
Warren
G.
Harding
had
been
elected
president.
About
1000
people heard this first
news broadcast.
Radio communicated news
much faster than did newspapers, and because
crystal sets were
easy to build and
inexpensive, radio expanded rapidly in the
following years. To stimulate the sale
of
radio
sets,
equipment
manufactures
provided
transmitting
facilities.
Singers,
comedians,
and
entire orchestras volunteered their
services for publicity.
The eventual
financial basis of the new
industry,
however, was still unclear
. One group
in New York City tried to seek contributions
from listeners while others urged that
private foundations support radio stations as a
public service.
In August 1922 the
first commercial radio advertisement was broadcast
on WEAF (now WNBC)
in
New
York
City.
In
1926,
when
about
5
million
homes
had
radios,
the
Radio
Corporation
of
America (RCA), in cooperation with the
American Telephone & Telegraph Company,
established
the first commercial radio
network. In the 1920s radio was established as a
new mass medium had
a practicable
industry, and it became a national

The Film:
The Great
Gatsby
(
Based on Fitzgerald’s Novel
The Great Gatsby
)
Director:
Baz Luhrmann
Cast:
Leonardo DiCaprio
as Jay Gatsby
Film Reviews:
If you never
read the classic F. Scott Fitzgerald’s novel
The Great Gatsby
, now is
your
chance to catch up
—
by watching the
latest film adaptation. Because if there’s one
sentence
to sum up the film, it would
be: It’s just like the book.
The use of music is almost reason
enough to see the film. Baz Luhrmann is at his
best
mixing visual and musical styles
together to create something wholly original, for
example, in
one of the most outstanding
scenes in the film, the first party scene, Nick
walks quickly from
one party guest to
another party guest trying to explain all the
gossip about Gatsby until he is
finally
introduced to the man himself, while the most
stirring version of
Rhapsody in Blue
(
蓝
色狂想曲
),
which was composed by American musician George
Gershwin in 1924, is played
in the
background.
─
Fox
News
Director Baz Luhrmann’s main
challenge was either to find a visual
equivalent
(

)
for
Fitzgerald’s elegant quality
--
the open secret of the book’s
popularity for so long time –

or to
match his own unusual personal strengths with the
material. He tries it both ways, with
considerable degrees of success.
DiCaprio does a good and professional
job as the
socialite
(
上流社会人士
) by recreating
Fitzgerald’s
description
of
Gatsby’s
charm.
He
can
look
at
someone
for
an
instant
and
understand how,
perfectly, he or she wants to be seen.
─
Time Magazine
About the Book and the Main Character:
Considered to be Fitzgerald’s
representative work,
The Great Gatsby
explores themes of
idealism,
resistance to change, social change, and excess,
creating a portrait of the Jazz Age or
the Roaring Twenties that has been
described as a tale regarding the American Dream.
Nick,
the
narrator,
moves
to
New
York
for
the
summer
to
visit
his
cousin
Daisy.
His
next-door neighbor is
Jay Gatsby (Leonardo DiCaprio), who rarely
contacts with others and is
said to be
a hero of the Great War. Gatsby claims to have
attended Oxford University, but the
evidence
is
suspect.
As
Nick
learns
more
about
Gatsby,
every
detail
about
him
seems
questionable, except
his love for the Daisy. Though Daisy is married,
Gatsby still loves her as
his “golden
girl”. They first met when she was a young lady
from a wealthy family and he
was
a
working-class
military
officer.
Daisy
promised
to
wait
for
his
return
from
the
war.
However, she married
Tom, a classmate of Nic
k’s. Having
obtained a great fortune, Gatsby
sets
out to win her back again.
60.
The
Fox News
review mentioned the first party scene
in the film to ________.
A. reveal the fact that Nick wants to
know more about Gatsby
B. show the version of Rhapsody in Blue
matches the film well
C. prove that the director is good at
combining visual and music
D. convince us that the first scene is
perfectly shot by the director
61.
According to
Time
Magazine
, what did Baz Luhrmann do to
make the film a success?
A. He adapted the story in
the novel as he wished.
B. He made the
film more powerful than the book.
C. He
mixed his style with the elegance of the book.
D. He changed
the story to meet his own style.
