24、A Chinese artist named He Peiqi made the news for building a model of his hometown, using nothing but coins! He spent a month stacking (堆积) up ancient Chinese coins, modern Chinese coins and foreign coins from 11 different countries to create the model. The model has roads, bridges and tall buildings. Believe it or not, he didn’t use any glue!

He Peiqi said that he collected tens of thousands of coins for his model. Once the coins were ready, he got to work on the floor of his apartment, working for two hours each day. He carefully stacked the coins to make the general layout (布局) of Chongqing City. It took him a month to finish the whole model, and he used more than 50, 000 coins in all.

He uses red and green stones to represent (代表) the city’s two major rivers—the Yangtze River and the Jialing River. The model also has some famous bridges, such as the E’gongyan Bridge, bridges over the Yangtze River and 28 bridges over the Jialing River. He said, “I also have paid special attention to the East Water and Chaotian Gate as well as Nanbin Petronas Towers and Sheraton Hotel.”

This model is amazing, and it’s rather fragile, because he did not glue any of the coins together. So when reporters visited his home to see the art work, he warned them, “Be careful not to touch it!” His fear is understandable-touching even a single coin would cause the fall of the whole art.

26、   There were many plants in a forest. When spring came, a pine tree saw a red rose nearby and said, "What a beautiful flower! I wish I were that lovely. "

The rose proudly said, "It seems that I am the most beautiful flower in this forest. "Then the rose looked at a cactus (仙人掌) and said, "Look at that ugly plant full of thorns（刺）! "

"What a proud flower! " thought the trees.

As the days passed. the red rose often looked at the cactus and said bad words about it, like "This plant is useless. How sorry I am to be his neighbor ! "

The cactus never got angry and even tried to advise the rose, saying, "God did not create any form of life without a purpose. "

Spring passed, and the weather became very hot. As there was no rain, the red rose began to wilt（枯萎）.

One day the rose saw birds put their beaks (喙) into the cactus and then fly away. The red rose asked the pine tree what the birds were doing. The pine tree explained that the birds were getting water from the cactus.

"The cactus has water?" asked the rose.

Yes, you can also drink some from it. The birds can bring water to you if you ask the cactus for help. "

27、All melodies（旋律）and harmony in Western music is usually built from just 12 notes（音符）. Whether it’s a splendid symphony, flourishing concerto or your favourite western pop songs, it will contain 12 familiar tones（音调）—and be based around familiar intervals（间隙）between these tones—to create the melodies we know and love today.

       Western music usually uses 12 notes—C, D, E, F, G, A and B, plus five flats（降调）and equal sharps（升调）in between, which are: C sharp/D flat（they’re the same note, just named differently）, D sharp/E flat, F sharp/G flat, G sharp/A flat and A sharp/B flat.

       These 12 notes have been used to create most of the Western music we listen to. The reasons music has landed on these specific notes can be summed up as a combination of convenience science and listener preferences.

       All sounds arc the result of waves（波）, and the frequency（频率）of waves determine the pitch（音高）of sounds we hear.Pitches or notes that sound high, for instance, have a high frequency. But when it comes to our familiar 12 notes, it’s not all about frequency—in fact, frequency hasn’t created this set of 12.

       We typically use just 12 notes in Western music because of the spaces—or intervals—between the notes. Pieces of music are familiar completely because of these intervals. Think of the children’s song “Baa baa Black Sheep” —it’s still the same “Baa baa Black sheep” when you start on the note C as when you start on B, or indeed if it’s sung by a person with a deep, low voice as when it’s sung by a person with a very high voice. For performers and music theory experts, this is what “transposing（转调）” is.

       Talking about 12 notes in music generally is suitable for music from the West and from some other parts of the world, but certainly isn’t suitable for all music. Arabic music had a 17—one scale. Indian classical music creates colour between notes far beyond the limited 12 notes. Indonesian gamelan also uses a different scale. And there are of course many, many more different ways music—makers have “split the octave（八度音阶）” up into different notes to create sensational melodies throughout human history.

【1】Which of the following notes come between note C and note F sharp in correct order going upwards?

A．C flat, C, D, E flat, E

B．C sharp, D, D flat, E sharp, F

C．C flat, C, D, D sharp, E

D．C sharp, D, D sharp, E, F

【2】Why is the song “Baa baa Black Sheep” always the same whether you start on the note C or the note B?

A．It is always sung by people with a deep voice and then a low voice.

B．The frequency and pitch of note B and C are always the same.

C．The intervals between each of the 12 notes are always the same.

D．It is always transposed by musicians between different notes.

【3】What can we infer from the last paragraph?

A．12 notes in music act better than a 17-tone scale.

B．Music is different in different areas around the world.

C．Western music should borrow some ways from the world.

D．The world should learn from western 12-tone scale.

【4】What’s the best title of this article?

A．12 Notes in Western Music.

B．Difference Between World Music.

C．How can We Enjoy Western Music?

D．Why is 12 Notes World Famous?

28、根据下面短文内容，在短文的空格处填上一个恰当的词，使短文完整、通顺。

Does speaking on the phone make you nervous?

Speaking with people on the phone is becoming less common these days. Many people prefer to use email or messaging apps when they need to communicate with someone. But sometimes it’s hard to 【1】 making a phone call. But this simple act can actually be an unpleasant experience for some people. Their hearts may race at the very thought. If this sounds familiar （熟悉的） to you, you might be among those with telephobia—the 【2】 of speaking on the phone.

Telephobia is a form of social anxiety. People who feel perfectly comfortable in social situations may also experience telephobia. When 【3】 face to face, we have lots of facial expressions that help each other follow the conversation. This is not the case over the phone. Very often the idea of speaking on the phone makes some people so scared that they will freeze up or lose control of the conversation. 【4】, there are things that they can do to stop this fear.

One thing that those with telephobia can do 【5】 making a call is smiling. It may sound silly, but smiling can help you feel more 【6】. It won’t get rid of （消除） the anxiety altogether, but it will take the edge off （使……缓解） it.

Similarly, imagining how the call will go before you make it can also help things go more smoothly. Just run through a positive conversation in your head. That will make you feel less nervous and may help you predict any possible problems.

Well, you don’t always have to pick up the phone at once. There’s nothing wrong with calling the person back 【7】 when you feel more comfortable. So the next time your phone starts ringing, remember—speaking on the phone doesn’t have to make you nervous. The important thing is to realize your fear and take steps to deal with 【8】. Over time, you will learn that using the phone need not be a terrifying experience.
