　　A French Canadian design group has greatly improved the classic swing set.Created by Montreal-based group Daily Tous Les Jours,The Swings is a large set of multicolored seats that emulate(仿真) a range of musical instruments as people swing.However,there is one rule required to reach the activation of The Swings—people must cooperate.When users work together to swing in unison(一致地),they are rewarded with a perfectly pleasant tune.

　　“The Swings is a game where,from the start,you need to adjust to the actions of others,”Mouna Andraos,Daily Tous Les Jours founder,said.

　　The Swings made its first American appearance at the Green Box Arts Festival,in Green Mountain,Colorado,last summer.After being awarded a grant(經(jīng)費(fèi)) from the Knight Foundation,The Swings will have month-long stays in Charlotte,North Carolina;Macon,Georgia;Philadelphia;and San Jose,California,over the course of the next year.Currently,The Swings is in storage until the first city of the tour has been designated(指定).

　　The project began in 2011,when the Montreal entertainment district was looking for a way to attract visitors.Daily Tous Les Jours worked alongside a musical composer and a biology professor to create “the magic of collective music making”,and the end result was swinging musical chairs.The Swings generated attention from other cities,which led Daily Tous Les Jours to apply for a grant to take the swing set on the road.

　　Daily Tous Les Jours hopes that,in addition to bringing joy to these four cities,The Swings will promote community interaction and cooperation.This could also eventually lead to positive socio-economic changes within each city.

　　“We want to observe how the positive interactions made by The Swings can help communities,neighborhoods and local businesses,”Andraos said.“Cooperation is at the heart of this operation.”

　　Throughout the whole year,the 60 museums and theatres in Hannover,Germany,will feature one top event after another.

　　It bears the title of UNESCO(United Nations Educational,Scientific and Cultural Organization)City of Music and takes its place in the international UNESCO network of Creative Cities.The range of musical education facilities(設(shè)施),the city’s impressive achievements in the music and creative business,the wide range of performances—from pop,rock and jazz right through to ancient,classical and new music—and its many top-class choirs(合唱團(tuán)) were all factors that convinced the UNESCO Committee in Paris.

　　There is music in the air in Hannover all year round:the A cappella week(25 April-3 May) and the Masala World Beat Festival(17 June-28 June),for example,take their audiences on a pleasant trip.Every year on Ascension Day,Hannover is transformed into the capital of jazz when it attracts tens of thousands to listen to excellent jazz music from all over the globe.

　　“Simply making music”is the motto of the global music festival“Fête de la Musique”.Like hundreds of other cities throughout the world,Hannover celebrates this major festival for tolerance(包容) and international understanding on 21 June every year.Terrific bands will take the stage at the NDR Plaza Festival and the N-Joy Starshow(29 & 30 May).Music lovers can also look forward to the F?hrmannsfest(31 July-2 August).

　　Every year,visitors can find out for themselves just how good Hannover Region sounds during the “Kultursommer”,when classical music events are on the bill in the HCC Kuppelsaal,the largest concert hall anywhere in Germany.In 2024,the International Joseph Joachim Violin Competition will be held between 27 September and 10 October.Every three years,Stiftung Niedersachsen invites outstanding young violinists from all over the world to compete here in Hannover.?

　　【語篇導(dǎo)讀】本文是說明文。漢諾威是德國(guó)下薩克森州的首府。由于其豐富的音樂活動(dòng)和濃厚的藝術(shù)氛圍,它被聯(lián)合國(guó)教科文組織評(píng)為“音樂之城”。

　　A.Why music is popular in Hannover.

　　B.What music we can enjoy in Hannover.

　　C.How to convince the UNESCO Committee.

　　D.What makes Hannover a UNESCO City of Music.

　　答案:D

　　解析:段落大意題。根據(jù)第二段中的“...all factors that convinced the UNESCO Committee in Paris”可知,該段主要介紹了漢諾威被聯(lián)合國(guó)教科文組織評(píng)為“音樂之城”的原因。

　　5.What can be inferred about Fête de la Musique?

　　A.It encourages people to make simple music.

　　B.It’s the biggest music event in Germany.

　　答案:C

　　解析:推理判斷題。根據(jù)第四段中的“‘Simply making music’is the motto of the global music festival‘Fête de la Musique’...Hannover celebrates this major festival for tolerance(包容) and international understanding”可知,Fête de la Musique這一音樂節(jié)僅僅關(guān)乎音樂,并且體現(xiàn)了包容和國(guó)際化這一主題。由此可推測(cè),在這一音樂節(jié)上會(huì)有不同類型的音樂被演奏。

　　6.Which of the following events lasts longest?

　　A.The F?hrmannsfest.

　　B.Fête de la Musique.

　　C.The N-Joy Starshow.

　　D.The Masala World Beat Festival.

　　答案:D

　　解析:細(xì)節(jié)理解題。通讀全文可知,四個(gè)音樂節(jié)的舉辦時(shí)間分別為7月31日~8月2日,6月21日,5月29、30日,6月17日~6月28日。由此不難看出,The Masala World Beat Festival的持續(xù)時(shí)間最長(zhǎng)。

　　7.The underlined words “Stiftung Niedersachsen” in the last paragraph are most probably the name of 　.?

　　A.a university B.a famous band

　　C.an organization D.a famous person

　　答案:C

　　解析:推理判斷題。根據(jù)最后一句內(nèi)容可知,Stifung Niedersachsen每三年都會(huì)邀請(qǐng)全球范圍內(nèi)的優(yōu)秀小提琴選手來漢諾威參加比賽,由此判斷它應(yīng)該是一個(gè)機(jī)構(gòu)名稱。

　　Ⅱ.七選五

　　1.　 People traveled in search of food and shelter or in order to flee from their enemies.Sometimes they were looking for gold or silver in order to become rich.On other occasions they were searching for rich farmland.?

　　3. International tourist arrivals alone reached as many as 546 million in 1994,937 million in 2010,according to the World Trade Organization.
