Among them, painter Li Qiujun was special.They got to know each other through Lis elder brother, who was one of Zhangs best friends.They admired each others artistic talent and became confidants, which resulted in a romantic relationship.In 1948, Zhang produced Spring Clouds Amid Autumn Landscape, a mountain-and-water ink painting featuring gongbi (meticulous brushwork), as a gift for Lis 50th birthday.A year later, Zhang permanently departed from the mainland, and traveled and exhibited around the world before settling down in Taipei in 1976.After leaving the mainland, he often said that he missed Li, who died in Shanghai in 1973.Spring Clouds Amid Autumn Landscape will be auctioned in Hong Kong on Oct 4.The painting not only marks a friendship between the two painters, but it deserves special attention because it shows Zhang at the top of his game as he sought to master the mountain-and-water style, according to C.K. Cheung, head of Sothebys Chinese painting department.Sothebys will auction the work at its major autumn sale, which runs from Oct 1 to 5.Cheung says the paintings composition and Zhangs attention to details reflect his incorporation of traditional touches, especially from Song Dynasty (960-1279) paintings, while also developing his own style.21.

Published in the latest issue of Aging on Wednesday, the study has found the most definitive evidence to explain why some people keep healthy lifestyle but die younger than others. Geneticist Steve Horvath from the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA), led a team of 65 scientists around the world to record age-related changes to human DNA, analyse blood samples collected from 13,000 people and estimate their lifespan. A higher biological age, regardless of actual age, consistently predicts an earlier death, the study says. "You get people who are vegan, sleep 10 hours a day, have a low-stress job, and still end up dying young," Horvath said in a statement. "We have shown some people have a faster innate aging rate." The findings discovered that 5 percent of the population ages at a faster biological rate, which translated to a roughly 50 percent higher than average risk of death at any age. "The great hope is that we find anti-aging interventions that would slow your innate aging rate," Horvath said, adding that "this is an important milestone to realizing this dream." 24. Some people keep healthy lifestyle but die younger than others because _. A. their biological clock is not powerful enough B. the most definitive evidence has been found C. they have a higher actual age than others D. they ages at a relatively faster biological rate25. How was the study conducted? A. By collecting and analyzing data B. By interviewing lots of people C. By researching previous studies D. By studying different lifestyles26. According to the study, it can be inferred that _. A. people who keep healthy lifestyle tend to live longer B. peoples lifespan can be predicted by their age C. 5 percent of people are believed to have a faster innate aging rate D. anti-aging interventions have proved to slow the innate aging rate27. Which of the following would be the best title for the passage? A. We all should keep healthy lifestyleB. Geneticist finds anti-aging interventionsC. Biological clock predicts life expectancy D. Horvath builds an important milestoneCAs a Chinese saying goes, “Taste is actually a memory of childhood”. Local specialty food may not be popular among all people, but it offers outsiders a glimpse of local culture and history.Gongcheng “oil tea” is such a kind of food that would be considered “weird” by many first-time visitors to the remote county in the north of the Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region. Many people dislike its bitter and astringent（涩的） flavor when they take a sip.“It felt like drinking Chinese herbal medicine. I never expected that I would gradually accept it afterwards, and even become addicted to it,” said a traveler surnamed Zhang who comes from Shijiazhuang in northern Chinas Hebei province.Langshan village is said to be the birthplace of Gongcheng “oil tea” whose ideal ingredients are green tea and fermented tea. The village has preserved well its buildings and roads dating back to late Qing Dynasty (1644-1911), as well as its traditional way of making the special tea.Lin Fengyou, 60, introduced the cooking process. She looks younger than her age, and attributes this to the benefits of drinking “oil tea” throughout the year.The first procedure is to use a wooden hammer to pound the tea while heating it in an iron pot, and then add edible oil and boiled water afterwards. She filters off the solid residues（余渣）, and pours the glue-like green tea soup into bowls. Then, she adds salt, caraway seed, green onion, dried rice, fried groundnuts, sliced taro and fried beans.The taste of the “oil tea” is a mixture of the distinctive flavors of all its ingredients. Local people usually eat it together with glutinous rice（糯米） balls, rice dumplings and glutinous rice cake.The villagers consume “oil tea” three times a day. The tea soup is a healthy and refreshing food. “The tea soup to us is coffee to Westerners”, said Lin. “But it is tastier.”28. Many first-time visitors may find “oil tea” _ when taking a sip. A. popular B. strange C. addicted D. beneficial29. What can we learn about Lin Fengyou according to the passage? A. She never expected that she would gradually accept “oil tea”. B. She is one of the reasons why the special tea has been preserved. C. She thinks drinking “oil tea” throughout the year makes her look younger. D. She drinks “oil tea” three times every day and considers coffee tastier.30. Which is the correct order of cooking “oil tea” according to Lin Fengyou? a. pour the glue-like green tea soup into bowls b. heat the tea in an iron pot and pound the tea c. add salt, caraway seed, green onion, dried rice, etc d. add edible oil and boiled water e. filter off the solid residues A. bdeac B. dbace C. acebd D. beadc31.

You can picture the scene of the man-it is usually a man-driving blindly around an unfamiliar town looking for an address he doesnt know. 37 And he could get to his appointment on time. It is obvious to everybody in such a case that asking for help is not a sign of weakness, but rather the sensible thing to do. 38 For example, you are looking for a new job and need to write your resume（简历）. If your pride prevents you from getting help and you just do the writing yourself, it may well cost the opportunity you are seeking. Similarly, when you just started a new job, you often dont want to admit that you havent got the knowledge to finish a particular task, so you keep going and eventually make things worse than they were. This may lead to a diminishing（贬低）of you in the eyes of the boss. 39 Now you can see that asking for help is not a sign of weakness but is the sensible and mature thing to do. 40 Making your life easier by asking for and using knowledgeable help is not a sign of weakness, but is actually quite a clever thing to do.A. Whats worse, you are most likely to lose the new job.B. Actually speaking, asking for help is not a sign of weakness.C. There are times when you know you dont have the relevant experience.D. If only he would stop and ask for directions, he could save lots of time.E. However, many people tend to make mistakes over and over when help is available.F. You will also recognize expert help would save your time, energy and money.G. You can accustom yourself to asking for help sooner or later. 第三部分 英语知识运用（共两节，满分45分）第一节 完形填空（共20小题；每小题1.5分，满分30分）阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D)中， 选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。I remember quite well a day 17 years ago.
