In their 8year, 12album history, Paul McCartney, John Lennon, George Harrison and Ringo Starr altered (改變) popular culture dramatically. And it wasn't just the suits and changing lengths of hair the four Liverpool boys wore that had such an impact, but what they seemed to stand for. The world saw them as the voice of a new generation, one with a very different attitude to life. Their influence was at its height in the 1960s, but their music continues to stir listeners today. However, up until recently one aspect of the Beatles was struck in Yesterday: The music had never been remastered (重新灌錄). But on September 9 that situation came to an end, with the release of the entire band's music in a digital makeover. It is probably the biggest reissue (重新發(fā)行) in pop music history, said British newspaper the Financial Times. The albums were remastered at Abbey Road Studios in London, the location where the band produced much of their work. The cover of their last album, Abbey Road of 1969, featured the four young men striding (大步行走) across a zebra crossing on Abbey Road itself. It is one of the most famous of all Beatles images.Recently, to celebrate the 40th anniversary of the album, hundreds of Beatles lovers gathered there to show their appreciation.Pop groups come and go. The boy band pursued by screaming fans one year will be forgotten the next. But the Beatles are one of the few groups whose music seems to have endured (持久). Why? Paul McCartney's biographer Barry Miles has an explanation. “They were the first rock band and they just happened to be the best. They were the first band to play at stadiums, to have their own products. They were groundbreaking in every way,” he says.16Why did the Beatles change popular culture?ABecause of the suits and hairstyles of the four Liverpool boys.BBecause of their albums.CBecause of their different attitude to life.DAll the above.17Which of the following statements is NOT true according to the second paragraph?AThe Beatles influenced people at its height in the 1960s.BTheir music Yesterday had never been remastered until September 9.CThe entire band's music in a digital makeover will be remastered.DOn September 9, their music came to an end.18What is their last album?AYesterday.BAbbey Road of 1969.CCome Together.DIn My Life.19What is NOT the reason why their music can endure?AThat they were the first rock band.BThat they were the best one.CThat they were the first band to play at stadiums and to have their own works.DThat they wore special suits.20What's the main idea of the passage? AWhat are the Beatles?BLegendary band stays on top in digital times.CThe origin of the Beatles.DWhy are the Beatles popular with people?BOne of the world's richest men has taken a close interest in one of man's most basic functions: visiting the toilet. Bill Gates's charitable organization, the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, is looking for inventors to design the loo of the future, which, they hope, would improve sanitation for millions of people around the world. So, what's wrong with the traditional flush toilet? Firstly, it wastes a huge amount of potential drinking water. Secondly, they are more likely to cause pollution. This is a real problem in many areas of the developing world, where, according to United Nations estimates, unsafe sanitation causes half of all hospitalizations. Younger people are particularly at risk. Illnesses which cause diarrhea are responsible for the deaths of about 1.5 million children a year. Finally, standard lavatories simply aren't practical in remote areas.The challenge set by Bill Gates was to come up with a latrine which works without running water, electricity or aseptic tank. It also needed to operate for less than 5 cents. 28 designs were displayed at the recent Reinvent the Toilet fair, in Seattle, USA. Among them was one which turned human waste into electricity using microwaves, another which converted human waste into charcoal, and yet another which used urine for flushing.But the winner was a solarpowered design which generated hydrogen gas and electricity. The team from the California Institute of Technology (CIT) picked up a prize of $100,000.But clearly Bill Gates doesn't feel he's flushing money down the toilet. After the Seattle event he said, “We couldn't be happier with the response we've gotten,” Gates has even pledged $370m (2.2 billion RMB) more to the future toilet project. They hope to field test more prototypes over the next three years.21Why is Bill Gates paying people to invent new toilets?ABecause he wants to test people's sense of creativity. BBecause he wants to improve sanitation for many people. CBecause he thinks the traditional ones are out of fashion. DBecause he can't design this kind of things himself. 22Which of the following is NOT a problem with the traditional flush toilet?AThey waste too much water.BThey might cause diseases.CThey are not always practical.DThey are too complicated to use. 23The underlined word “l(fā)atrine” in the third paragraph might have similar meanings to the word “_” in the text.

Secondly, they are more likely to cause pollution.和Finally, standard lavatories simply aren't practical in remote areas. 看出A、B和C項是文章中提到的。23A詞義猜測題。從本句中a latrine which works without running water, electricity or aseptic tank看出latrine是指“公共廁所”。從第一段的design the loo of the future, which, they hope, would improve sanitation for millions of people around the world.看出,loo也是指“公共廁所”。24C細節(jié)理解題。從第四段的the winner was a solarpowered design which generated hydrogen gas and electricity. 看出他們的設(shè)計是用太陽能產(chǎn)生能量。25C細節(jié)理解題。因為原來的公廁是用水沖的,每天會浪費掉很多的水,浪費水就等于白白的浪費錢。比爾·蓋茨的設(shè)想如果成功,他感覺到是不會浪費錢的。
