A: at B: on C: to D: in 正确答案: (完型填空) 1: Ahhh, summer. Time to relax. You cannot have complete rest if you ##it too seriously. But taking vacations seriously is exactly##we Americans seem to do. In the same way our kids' free time is now packed with activities, we adults have turned vacations into "active leisure." Anytime you try very hard to relax, that's active leisure. Our vacations##with an agenda, a purpose. We're visiting family, attending weddings, going camping, and making sure we ride that roller coaster-no matter how long the line is. We Americans are so active in our leisure##we commonly complain we need a vacation from our vacations. We leave home##; we come back exhausted. That's why many of us have decided not to go. Americans are##a few vacation days (14 days, on average) compared with other developed countries, but ironically, we don't even use them. The average American will leave four vacation days on the table this year, which adds up to a total 574 million days of##vacation. Our relationship to relaxation seems contradictory. We spend more money than anyone else in the world on leisure-fully one-##of our income-and yet at the same time we are No. 1 in the world at not taking vacations. One of the top reasons given for not taking a vacation is that it's too much extra work. We have to get##of our work in order to leave, and then we have to catch up on our work upon our return. The longer the vacation we take, the bigger the stumbling blocks appear. So only 14% of Americans will take a vacation two weeks or longer this summer. Bottom line: it's simply become too stressful to relax. We Americans take our time off so seriously that you can now get a Ph.D. in leisure studies at Penn State and 17 other famous universities. That's right-a doctorate, not just a bachelor's. It's such an up-and-coming field in academe that there is an actual shortage of##educators. We don't have enough people to teach leisure. I am tempted to make a joke about this, but I don't want to get the wrath of the leisure scientists. They'll beat me up with chairs. 正确答案: (阅读理解) 1: Although stage plays have been set to music since the era(年代) of the ancient Greeks when the dramas of Sophocles and Aeschylus were accompanied by lyres(里拉琴) and flutes, the usually accepted date for the beginning of opera as we know it is 1600. As part of the celebration of the marriage of King Henry IV of France to the Italian aristocrat(贵族) Maria de Medici, the Florentine composer Jacopo Peri produced his famous Euridice, generally considered to be the first opera. Following his example, a group of Italian musicians called the Camerata began to revive(复兴) the style of musical story that had been used in Greek tragedy. 正确答案: (阅读理解) 2: The origins(起源) of baseball probably stretch back to 1839 when Abner Doubleday, a civil engineering student, laid out a diamond-shaped field at Cooperstown, New York, and attempted to standardize(使标准化) the rules governing the playing of such games as town ball and four old cat, the ancestors(祖先) of baseball. By the end of the Civil War, interest in the game had grown rapidly. Over 200 teams or clubs existed, some of which toured the country playing rivals; they belonged to a national association of "Baseball Players" that had proclaimed(宣布) a set of standard rules. These teams were amateurs(业余爱好者) or semi-professionals, but as the game waxed in popularity, it offered opportunities for profit, and the first professional team, the Cincinnati Red Stockings, appeared in 1869. Other cities soon fielded professional teams, and in 1876 the present National League was organized chiefly by Albert Spalding. Soon a rival league appeared, the American Association. Competition between the two was intense, and in 1883 they played a post-season(季后赛) contest, the first "world's series". The American Association eventually collapsed, but in 1900 the American League was organized. 正确答案: (简答题) 1: We can make music ourselves if we play an instrument or sing. （英译汉） 正确答案: 如果我们会使用乐器或唱歌，我们也可以作曲。 (简答题) 2: Thus all living beings should follow the rules of nature and have to live in accord with the Mother Nature. （英译汉） 正确答案: 因此所有的众生都应遵循自然规律, 必须按大自然的规律来生活。 (简答题) 3: 句子翻译： The doctors said that he would gain his mobility back and be able to function normally, it would just take time. 正确答案: 医生说他能恢复身体的活动性，也能正常发挥功能，只是这一切都需要时间。 (责任编辑：admin)要这答案加QQ：800020900 或加微信：q800020900 获取 |
