As the winner of numerous musical honors, he said, “I love the power of sound.” He was also recently named Native American Music Awards Artist of the Year and he played at the inauguration of President Barack Obama.“My concerts are a journey for both my audiences and myself,” he says. “Feelings and emotions are all over the board and I am the tool trying to convey those feelings, trying to paint a visual picture through chord changes. Sound conveys power, whether its a well-performed craze or the wind blowing through the trees. Music isnt just a pretty melody, also its a visual performance that captures moments in life and puts them to music.”Ayala also shares his gift with kids. As a teacher with a masters degree, he serves as an advocate(提倡者) for youth education by being a role model. He practices the philosophy of honoring elders, respecting women, and loving children. He delivers a message to youth that they can become whatever they dream of.The music man has recently launched a non-profit foundation to work more closely with youngsters. “Ive been blessed in both my career and life and feel I need to give back to pay my respect and thanks for the gift I have owned and I can do that through music,” he says.One of his experiences in giving back involved a high school class of some 200, which included a special needs group. “I used my guitar as a tool to capture their interest and once I began playing, the whole behaviors of the class changed in a positive way. This was especially so for one of the disabled students whose hands would not allow him to even hold my costly guitar. When I put the valuable guitar in his lap and he started beating the heck out of it as hard as he could, there wasnt a dry eye in the house. Thats the real reason I play music, not for fame or fortune, but because music has the power to truly heal. The look on that boys face was priceless.”16. In Ayalas eyes, music is a _. A. role model D. visual performance B. natural gift C. famous painting17. Ayala plays music to _. A. earn money B. be a role modelC. become famous D. encourage the youth 18. From the passage, we can learn that Ayala _. A. plays various instruments skillfully B. sends valuable guitars to disabled students C. devotes himself to delivering the power of music D. calls on children to walk into schools to learn music BAirbnb for PetsThe majority of Americans see their pets as family members, surveys show. Those with dogs are more likely to call themselves pet “parents” than pet “owners”. In big cities such as San Francisco and Seattle, (owned) dogs outnumber children.Overall, annual spending on pet food and products in America has risen by around 40% over the past ten years. Now a number of startups have sniffed a fresh opportunity. Much as Airbnb has offered travelers an alternative(替換物) to staying in a hotel, two firms, Rover and DogVacay, want to give pet owners an alternative to kennels(養(yǎng)狗場(chǎng)) when away from home.One selling point of this model is less expense. Customers search for a nearby sitter and pay for their dog to stay in that persons home. The cost is around $30 a night, with the majority of that going to the sitter and around a fifth to the companymuch less than you would spend to check your dog into a kennel.The other big selling-point is that pets generally receive better treatment. There are ways, apparently, to vet (資格審查) dog hosts to find the real pet lovers: only around 15% of those who apply to serve as pet sitters are approved. Besides, Rover has launched a feature that enables customers to see how far their dog has been walked via the GPS in the hosts phone. Like Airbnb, both DogVacay and Rover insure stays against accidents.Another advantage is that customers often use dog-sitting services many times a year, and they tend to be loyal. That has helped DogVacay and Rover attract a lot of venture-capital money.But firms that connect pets with hosts will face great competition as they try to go global. And unlike Airbnb, which pulls in customers thanks to its presence in lots of markets that people want to travel to, the network effect for services like DogVacay is local. Despite having foreseen the trend early, such firms may never achieve the same scale as an Airbnb. But then no one ever said it was easy to be top dog. 19. Rover and DogVacay are firms that_.A. sell pet food and productsB. offer hotels to pet ownersC. provide pet-sitting servicesD. help pet owners start new firms20. One advantage of the Rover and DogVacay model is that_.A. pets are loyal to the pet sittersB. anyone can be accepted as a pet sitterC. customers can walk their dogs with phonesD. the firms can insure pets safety during the stays21. We can learn from the last paragraph that Rover and DogVacay _.A. are facing fierce competition when going globalB. are as successful as Airbnb internationallyC. have connected pets with hosts worldwideD. have become top dog without difficultyCIn the world of today, media have become as necessary as food and clothing. They have played a significant role in strengthening society. Media are considered as mirror of the modern society. In fact, it is the media that shape our lives. The role of media has become one way of trading and marketing of products and prejudices(偏見(jiàn)). Media claimed to be governed by righteousness and fairness, but greed has poisoned its virtues.Society is influenced by media in so many ways. It is the media for the masses that help them get information about a lot of things and also form opinions and make judgments regarding various issues. It is the media that keep people informed about what is happening around them and the world. Everyone can draw something from them. Media have had a bad effect on a generation, mainly because youth are strongly influenced by media. Teenagers and children wish to follow the people who get recognized and do what they do to get noticed. Sometimes, they focus on the bad side of the media and try to be a part of it. Media affect peoples ideas. Too much involvement of media in everything is a matter of concern. Media can be considered as watch dog of political democracy (民主). Through the ages, the emphasis of media on news has disappeared. Media, these days, try to eye the news which could help them to sell the information gathered worldwide, so that they could pave a way of success and fame of their respective(各自的) channels. For the sake of publicity and selling, important figures lifestyles are usually targeted. Unimportant and irrelevant news is given first attention and due to a reason or another, it gets onto the minds of the viewers. And in this way, many a time, important political, economical and sociological news gets neglected and gradually loses its importance.No doubt, media have played a significant role in making the world a global village and reducing the communication gaps amongst people living in the far areas, but unfortunately, media these days mainly eye the news which is hot and good at selling. The goal is to gain the television rating points.I believe, if media identify their responsibilities and work sincerely and honestly, then they can serve as a great force in building the nation.22. What is the best title of the passage?A. The Development of Media. B. The Role of Media in Todays World. C. The Importance of Media Today. D. The Influence of Media on the Youth.23. According to Paragraph 2, _.A. media influence society greatly B. media benefit most of the people C. people inform media of whats happeningD. teenagers want to get recognized via media24. We can learn from the passage that media nowadays _.A. try to work as “watch dog” of political democracyB. fail to target the lifestyles of important figuresC. help to sell and publicize the important newsD. tend to focus on their fame and success25. The author organizes the passage by_.A. giving definition B. providing examples C. making contrast D. presenting data第二節(jié) （共10小題; 每小題1.5分, 共15分）Read the following passage and then answer the questions. The Bold Bus DriverOn a warm morning last summer, California bus driver Tim Watson was about halfway through his daily 15-mile express route from Milpitas to Fremont when an alert from the Valley Transportation Authority (VTA) flashed across his dashboard screen. A child had been kidnapped （綁架）in Milpitas, the message read, and it asked that drivers be on the lookout for the boy. The victim was described as a three-year-old child in plaid（方格圖案的）shorts and red shoes; the suspect, a man in his 20s wearing jeans and a black hooded sweatshirt. Tim felt his stomach drop when he realized that a man with a kid on his hip had boarded the bus just ten minutes earlier. Tim clearly remembered the boys plaid shorts. Tim glanced in one of his mirrors and saw the pair sitting in the last seat at the back of the nearly empty bus. Before alerting authorities, he wanted to confirm their identities. Pulling into a McDonalds parking lot, he announced that he needed to look for a lost bag. He moved slowly down the aisle, peering under each seat, until he approached the last row. As he bent down, Tim avoided eye contact with the man. “I saw the boys red shoes,” says Tim. “But I knew I had to keep cool.” Back behind the wheel, Tim apologized for the delay and pulled the bus onto the highway. Not wanting to arouse suspicion, he waiteda few minutes, then radioed the bus dispatcher in his low voice that he had the kidnapping suspect on his bus. The dispatcher directed Tim to continue to his final stop at the Fremont BART subway station, where police officers would be waiting. “As Im driving, all I can think about is what Im going to do if I get there before the police,” he says. So he slowed down, rolling along at 35mph in a 65mph zone. As Tim was about to make the last turn into the BART parking lot, he saw from the side mirrors police car pull up behind the bus silently but with red lights flashing. “The bus doesnt have a back window, so the guy had no idea they were there,” says Tim. He stopped the bus and opened the doors. In his right side mirror, Tim could see four cops waiting for the suspect. As the man got off the bus with the boy, a police officer grabbed the child out of his arms, threw the suspect to the ground, and hand-cuffed him behind his back. The police officers told Tim that about an hour earlier, the man, Alfonso David Edington, 23, had snatched the boy from the Milpitas library after he wandered away from his mother. Tim thought about his own sons. He went back to check that the boy was OK. Tim found him sitting calmly in the front seat of a police car, without a tear in sight. “I just smiled at him,” Tim says. “I knew he was safe.” Edington was charged with kidnapping and faced up to 11 years in prison. A few weeks after the incident, Tim received a certificate of recognition from the VTA Board of Directors and the city of Milpitas. Still, Tim is humble about his actions. Questions 26 to 30. Judge if the following statements agree with the information given in the passage. Choose A for TRUE if the statements agree with it; choose B for FALSE if the statements dont agree with it; choose C for NOT GIVEN if the information the statements carry is not mentioned anywhere in the passage. 26.
