【2020届宁夏石嘴山市第三中学高三下学期第三次模拟考试英语试题】One day. One lifetime. You can do it! From the museum of modern art to the museum of ancient articles, visit our picks for the world’s best museums.
National Gallery of Canada (Ottawa)
This museum has a great collection of art spanning the Middle Ages to the present day, including American, Indian, European, Inuit and Canadian works. It offers a unique, near-complete
overview
of
Canadian art——from early Quebec religious work, through
Inuit work from the 1950s, to the contemporaries.
Tokugawa Art
Museum
(Japan)
The
Tokugawa
family
reigned over Japan from 1600 to 1868. Under them, the country enjoyed the longest period of peace in its history. This time span is also known as the Edo period, during which the arts flowered in Japan. Artists of this
period
directly
influenced Western masters such as Monet, Gauguin and Whistler and have since gone on to become household names. Other exhibits effectively present, through accurately reproduced
environments,
aspects of Japanese life at the time.
Museum of
Fine
Arts
(Boston)
Highlights
of
this
museum’s collection include a 4th-century Christian marble
bust (半身像) of St.Paul at prayer, and a painting that questions life and our very existence, Gauguin’s “Where do we come from? What are we? Where are we going?” It’s a must-go in the US.
The Egyptian
Museum
(Cairo)
As well as gathering together some of the finest archaeological finds from all Egypt,
this
museum
also
provides a rare opportunity to simply pop in and within minutes
be
standing
face-to-face with one of the greatest works of mankind, Tutankhamun’s golden mask. A portrait
of
unbelievable
quality, craftsmanship and beauty, the highly polished gold face —— at once a god, a king and a teenager —— shines like water: delicate, yet untouchable all at the same time.

Canada.

【2020届山东德州市高三第一次模拟考试英语试题】Many Americans think of driverless cars as a futuristic technology that will revolutionize travel in cities and along state highways.
But
recent
experiments are proving that autonomous vehicles also have the potential to improve the quality of life for millions of Americans underserved
by traditional
modes
of
transportation, such as the elderly and disabled, so long as
lawmakers
make
smart
policies that pave the way for innovation.
A retirement community in San Jose, Calif., which has been transformed by a small fleet of driverless taxis, shows
the
potential
of
self-driving cars to transform people’s lives. Built by a tech start-up called Voyage, the modified Ford Fusions are
currently limited to a two-mile road, but residents are already having the benefits of these autonomous vehicles, which allow them to participate in social activities they would otherwise be unable to enjoy simply because they could not get to them.
When the trial run finally expands to 15 miles of road, these residents —— whose average age is 76 —— will also have a convenient and reliable new way to appointments. As these cars continue to serve residents there, it is easy to understand why California is moving to simplify regulations for the industry.
In
Michigan,
forward-thinking policies have the potential to unlock other hidden benefits of autonomous vehicles, especially for those with physical disabilities. The Michigan Disability Rights
Coalition has strongly
advocated for the development of this technology, saying that it could give people with disabilities
greater
opportunities in the workforce and enable them to lead more fulfilling, independent lives.
Many
recognize
that
autonomous vehicles will be the future of transportation, but it is too often overlooked that this future cannot arrive fast enough
for
millions
of
Americans who are forced to depend on others for day-to-day travel.
The
policymakers
should follow the lead of places like California and Michigan, and pass rules and regulations to unlock these hidden benefits of driverless cars.
24. What’s the attitude of most American people to the future of autonomous vehicles?
A. uncertain
B. doubtful C. indifferent D. optimistic
25. What is the modified Ford Fusion?
A. The collection of social activities.
B. The name of a retirement community.
C. A kind of autonomous vehicle.
D. A two-mile road for self-driving cars.
26. Examples are given in the third and fourth paragraphs to prove__________.
A. what are preventing the development of the technology
B. why driverless cars are restricted in many states in America
C.
how
driverless
technology benefits the aged and disabled
D. when driverless cars can enter
people’s
life
eventually
27. What does the author attempt to inform us in the last paragraph?
A.
The
concept
of
autonomous vehicles has been widely recognized.
B. The weak groups are often
overlooked
despite
technology advances.
C.
The
benefits
of
driverless cars have been fully unlocked.
D. Regulations should go hand in hand with driverless technology. C
