The Stadiums
The stadiums that host the Olympic Games are as much of a celebration of design as the games are a celebration of sportsmanship.

Ivrea is a town in the Piedmont province of northern Italy. It is known for its localcarnival（狂欢节）organized in February.
The main part of the carnival is the famous Battle of the Oranges (La battaglia delle arance). The Battle includes nine teams who throw oranges at each other during three carnival days – Sunday, Monday and Tuesday.
Oranges were not always used in the battle. In the middle ages people used beans. Twice a year the local feudal lord gave a pot of beans to the poor families who, as sign of rebellion, threw them out of their homes. Later beans became part of carnival as sort of “ammunition” for throwing at people passing by.
It is still not known why exactly people started using oranges. It is believed that the origin for this tradition is in the mid 19th century. The legend says that local girls, standing on balconies, started to throw some oranges, together with confetti,lupins(白羽扇豆)and flowers, onto the parade carriages. The girls actually wanted to draw attention of boysin the carriages. Boys “answered” by throwing some objects back at girls. Little battle started that way.
Battle of the Oranges got strict rules after the World War II. The battles are organized on town's squares. The battles are fought between teams in carriages (symbolizing local the guards of localtyrant(恶霸)) and the teams walking beside those carriages (symbolizing rebellious people of Ivrea).
Oranges for the event are brought from the island of Sicily. The oranges used are of low quality, not suitable for humans. About 270,000 kilograms of oranges are used each year.
The carnival ends with a silent march on the night of “Fat Tuesday”. The Carnival \"general\" says goodbye to everyone with the phrase \"See you next Fat Thursday at 1 p.m.\"
Special prizes are awarded to three best foot teams, three carriages drawn by two horses and three carriages drawn by four horses. Different elements are judged like for example throwing ability, fair play or decoration of carriages.
4. The word \"ammunition\" (paragraph 3) is closest in meaning to________.
A. decoration B. bullets C. advertisement D. presents 5. In Battle of the Oranges, the teams walking beside carriages act as ________. A. the Carnival general B. the local feudal lord
C. the rebellious people of Ivrea D. the guards of local tyrant(暴君) 6. Which of the following statements about Battle of the Oranges is NOT true? A. In the middle ages, people threw beans out of homes as a sign of rebellion.
B. Girls throw oranges towards carriages in the parade to attract the attention of boys inside. C. Tons of oranges are used every year to hold the festival.
D. People started to throw oranges because they are of low quality and not suitable to eat. 7. What is this passage mainly about? A. A traditional activity in an Italian carnival B. The origin of Battle of the Orange
C. How people enjoy themselves in the Orange Carnival D. The rules of activities in carnivals in Italy

Coke was introduced by the Coca Cola company in 1886, making it a rather true andtested favorite of generations of people in over 200 countries. This list should give you some ideas on how to get more from your coke than usual.
. Coca Cola is an excellent rust buster (除锈剂). If you have a bunch of small rusty objects, put them in coke overnight and give them a goodscrubin the morning. Coke helps to break down the rust, making cleaning much easier. Be sure to throw out the used coke when you are done with it or you might be taking a trip to the doctor.
. Like the previous item, the citric acid (柠檬酸) in coke makes for an excellent window cleaner. This is especially useful for car windows. Pour a can of coke over the window and rub the window, then wipe it off with a wet cloth to remove any sugary matter from the sugar in the drink. As coke is fullof sugar, you should clean the sticky matter off the window glasses, or it will be not a cleaner but a dirt.
. For those of you who live in areas where skunk (臭鼬) smells can be an issue from time to time, one can of coke added to water with detergent (清洁剂) really helps to break the smell down. If you have been sprayed, stand in the shower and cover yourself from head to toe with coke — wait for a few minutes, then wash yourself with a shower. Coke is an excellent hair treatment so you get two tips for the price of one with this item!
. Pots can sometimes get black on the bottom. The black is almost impossible to remove; this is caused by over-cooking. To remove the black and renew your pot, pour in a can of coke (or as much as you need to cover the blackened area by an inch) and put it on the stove on a low heat. After an hour or so, wash the pot as normal. 8. What does the underlined word “scrub”in Paragraph 2 probably mean?
A. Start. B. Cleaning. C. Shake. D. Example.
9. What is important while using coke to clean car windows? A. Use a dry cloth. B. Rub the window lightly. C. Don’t pour too much coke. D. Clean the sugary matter thoroughly.
10. For which purpose does coke have to be mixed with other material? A. To get rid of the black on the pot. B. To breakdown the rust, C. To remove smells. D. To clean windows.
11. What type of writing is this text?
A. An advertisement. B. A review. C. A news report. D. A practical guide.
D
Italy's fashion capital is gray — not only because of the blocks of stone buildings，but also due to its often-gray sky, which traps pollution. ButMilannow wants to change it.
The city has an ambitious plan to plant 3 million new trees by 2030 - a move that experts say could offer relief from the city's hot weather. Some projects have already contributed to environmental improvements. Architect Stefano Boeri’s Vertical Forest residential (居民的) tower, completed in 2014, aims to improve not only air quality but the quality of life for Milan residents. Boeri created a smallisland of greenery in the heart ofMilan, filling every balcony with plants that absorb carbon dioxide.
“I think forestation is one of the best chances that we have today. It is one of the most effective ways we have to fight climate change, because everyone can plant trees, Boeri said.
Damiano Di Simine, a member of the environmental group Legambiente , said the greenMilanproject will lower temperatures in a city where the nighttime temperature can be 6 degrees Celsius higher than in the surrounding area. City show thatMilanexperiences 35 hot nights a year. Because the city lies close to theAlps, Milin gets very little wind to lower the city's temperatures. \"Planting trees will help this,\" Di said.
TheVerticalForesthas attracted more than 20 species of birds. And the shade provided by the 800 trees and
15,000 plants means that residents rarely have to put on air conditioning, even in hot summers. TheVerticalForest's total greenery- can absorb 30 metric tons of carbon dioxide every year. The presence of green trees has a very important effect on people's health and psychological state, as has already been proved. 12. What change doesMilanplan to make? A. Planting more trees. B. Creating a new fashion style.
C. Pulling down more gray stone buildings. D. Doing more surveys to study global wanning. 13. What's Boeri's opinion on the city's plan? A. It costs a lot. B. It is unpractical.
C. It fails to attract people's attention. D. It is helpful to fight against climate change. 14. What is Di Simine's attitude toward the city's plan? A. Doubtful. B. Supportive. C. Disappointed. D. Unconcerned. 15. What does the last paragraph focus on? A. Specifics of the city's plan. B. Challenges faced by the city. C. The aim of theVerticalForestproject.
D. The positive effect of theVerticalForestproject. 第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）
