CARDIFF, Wales Poets, singers and musicians from across the globe gathered in Wales to celebrate the tradition(传统) of storytelling.

“It might seem strange that people still want to listen in age of watching television, but this is an unusual art form whose time has come again,” said David Ambrose, director of Beyond the Border, an international storytelling festival(节) in Wales.

“Some of the tales, like those the Inuit from Canada, are thousands years old. So our storytellers have come from distant lands to connect us with the distance of time,” he said early this month.

Two Inuit women, both in their mid 60s, are among the few remaining who can do Kntadjait, or throat singing, which has few words and much sound. Their art is governed by the cold of their surroundings, forcing them to say little but listen attentively.

Ambrose started the festival in 1993, after several years of working with those reviving (coming back into use or existence) storytelling in Wales.

“It came out of a group of people who wanted to reconnect with traditions. and as all the Welsh are storytellers, it was in good hands here.” Ambrose said.

60. Ambrose believes that the art of storytelling _______.

A. will be more popular than TV B. started in Wales

C.will be popular again D. are in the hands of some old people 61. From the tales told by the Inuit, people can know _______.

A. why they tell the stories in a throat-singing way B. their life as early as thousands of years ago C. how cold it has been where the Inuit live D. how difficult it is to understand the Inuit 62. According to the writer, which of the following is NOT true？_______.

A. Storytelling did not come back until 1993 in Wales. B. Storytelling has a long history in Wales. C. Storytelling is always well received in Wales. D.Storytelling once stopped in Wales 63. The underlined phrase in good hands means _______. A. controlled by rich people B.grasped by good storytellers C.taken good care of D.protected by kind people

I came to live here where I am now between Wounded Knee Greek and Grass Greek. Others came too, and we made these little grey houses of logs that you see, and they are square, It is a bad way to live, for there can be no power in a square.

You have noticed that everything an Indian does is in a circle, and that is because the Power of the World

always works in circles, and everything tries to be round. In the old days when we were a strong and happy people, all our power came to us from the respectful circle of the nation, and so long as the circle was unbroken, the people were getting rich. The flowering tree was the living center of the circle, and the circle of the four quarters nursed it. The east gave peace and light, the south gave warmth, the west gave rain, and the north with its cold and strong wind gave strength and continuous power. This knowledge came to us from the outer world with our brief. Everything the Power of the World does is done in a circle. The sky is round, and I have heard that the earth is round like a ball, and so are all the stars. Birds make their nests in circle, for theirs are the same as ours. The sun comes forth and goes down again in a circle. The moon does the same, and both are round. Even the seasons form a great circle in their changing, and always come back again to where they were. The life of a man is a circle from childhood to childhood, and so it is in everything where power moves. Our places were like the nests of birds, and these were always set in a circle, the nation’s circle, a nest of many nests, where the Great Spirit meant for us to nurse our children.

But the Wasichus (Indian word for “white people”) have put us in these square boxes. Our power is gone and we are dying, for the power is not in us any more. You can look at our boys and see how it is with us. Where we were living by the power of the circle in the way we should, boys were men at twelve or thirteen years of age. But now it takes them very much longer to be bull - grown.

. According to the passage, the Indians ______. A. don’t have modern instruments in their homes

B. lived in round places, but were forced to live in square houses C.refused to move from round places

D. lived in round places, but then decided to move into square houses 65. In the second paragraph “the four quarters” refers to _______. A. the four seasons B.the four directions

C. the four kinds of natural power D. the four rooms of the Indian’s house 66.Two things being compared in the passage are _______.

A. the Indians’ past and present living conditions B. the Indians’ past and modern beliefs C. the Indians’ old and new power D.. people and nature 67. According to the author, once the Indians moved into square houses, _______.

A. everyone was not happy B. they forgot the old way of life

C. they had to move to other houses D.boys took more time to grow into men D

Franz Kafka wrote that “a_book_must_be_the_ax_(斧子)_for_the_frozen_sea_inside_us”．I once shared this sentence with a class of seventh graders, and it didn't seem to require any explanation.

We'd just finished John Steinbeck's novel Of Mice and Men. When we read the end together out loud in class, my toughest boy, a star basketball player, wept a little, and so did I. “Are you crying？” one girl asked, as she got out of her chair to take a closer look. “I am，” I told her, “and the funny thing is I've read it many times.”

But they understood. When George shoots Lennie, the tragedy is that we realize it was always going to happen. In my 14 years of teaching in a New York City public middle school, I've taught kids with imprisoned parents, abusive(辱骂的)parents, irresponsible parents; kids who are parents themselves; kids who are homeless; kids who grew up in violent neighborhoods. They understand，more than I ever will, the novel's terrible logic－the giving way of dreams to fate (命运)． 3

For the last seven years, I have worked as a reading enrichment teacher, reading classic works of literature with small groups of students from grades six to eight. I originally proposed this idea to my headmaster after learning that a former excellent student of mine had transferred out of a selective high school－one that often attracts the literary­minded children of Manhattan's upper classes－into a less competitive setting. The daughter of immigrants, with a father in prison, she perhaps felt uncomfortable with her new classmates. I thought additional “cultural capital” could help students like her develop better in high school, where they would unavoidably meet, perhaps for the first time, students who came from homes lined with bookshelves, whose parents had earned Ph.D.'s.

Along with Of Mice and Men, my groups read: Sounder, The Red Pony, Lord of the Flies, Romeo and Juliet and Macbeth. The students didn't always read from the expected point of view.About The Red Pony, one student said, “it's about being a man, it's about manliness.”I had never before seen the parallels between Scarface and Macbeth, nor had I heard Lady Macbeth's soliloquies (独白) read as raps (说唱), but both made sense; the interpretations were playful, but serious. Once introduced to Steinbeck's writing, one boy went on to read The Grapes of Wrath and told me repeatedly how amazing it was that “all these people hate each other, and they're all white”. His historical view was broadening, his sense of his own country deepening. Year after year, former students visited and told me how prepared they had felt in their first year in college as a result of the classes.

Year after year, however, we are increasing the number of practice tests. We are trying to teach students to read increasingly complex texts, not for emotional punch (碰撞) but for text complexity. Yet, we cannot enrich (充实) the minds of our students by testing them on texts that ignore their hearts. We are teaching them that words do not amaze but confuse. We may succeed in raising test scores, but we will fail to teach them that reading can be transformative and that it belongs to them.

68. The underlined words in Paragraph 1 probably mean that a book helps to_______.

A．smooth away difficulties B．give support to our life C．awake our emotions D．realize our dreams

69. Why were the students able to understand the novel Of Mice and Men?______ A．.Because they had similar life experiences. B．Because they had read the novel before. C．Because they spent much time reading it. D．Because they came from a public school

70. The author writes the passage mainly to________. A．defend the current testing system B．introduce classic works of literature

C．argue for equality among high school students D．advocate teaching literature to touch the heart

71. To the author's surprise, the students read the novels________. A．repeatedly B．passively C．creatively D．Carelessly 72．The girl left the selective high school possibly because_______.

A．she couldn't fit in with her class B．she was a literary­minded girl C．her parents were immigrants D．her father was then in prison 第Ⅱ卷（非选择题，共45分）
