At the moment when looking round the world, all kinds of dance performances are being offered. There are competitions that claim to be a World Cup or World Championship, and the young dancer or the dance teacher who wants to enter his students might be quite confused. Which is which? Which is of high standard and good quality, and which is not worth going to? First of all it has clearly got to be distinguished between the different styles of dance and the purpose of such competitions. When a person wants to learn classical ballet, he or she would never dream of going to a ballroom teacher. Such a teacher might even have been world champion in his ballroom dancing, but he would definitely not be qualified in teaching proper classical ballet.
People in Britain and the USA are taking more interest in modern dance. Dance classes of all kinds are popular; the audiences going to watch modern dance companies are also larger. And perhaps the most popular modern dance company in Britain is the Ballet Rambert.
The Ballet Rambert is Britains’ oldest established dance company which began in 1926. In the 60 s the company lacked the money to go on staging big productions. The directors wanted to encourage new talent and to keep up their high standards. A change of direction was necessary. They decided to give the ballet a ‘new look” in 1966. The aim was to provide a chance for new talent – for musicians and designers as well as dancers – and to show dance as a contemporary art form. And although some of the company’s previous fans dislike the change, new audiences came to see the productions.
The modern dance pieces and modern music found unexpected popularity. In the 21 st century the Ballet Rambert was a great success in London’s West End. The company became a focus for new, progressive talent in the art.
Then, the Ballet Ramvert started to introduce young people to modern dance by giving performances at schools, which again, was a success.
The Ballet Rambert has managed to make modern dance popular while creating original and often avant – garde (標新立異) productions. It can claim to be the oldest dance company in Britain and at the same time one of the most modern!
【小題1】If a person wants to learn classical ballet, he or she will go to         .

A．the Ballet RambertB．a(chǎn) ballroom teacher
C．a(chǎn) world championD．a(chǎn) qualified school
【小題2】The underlined phrase “new talent” in Para. 3 probably means         .
A．new programsB．new audiences
C．a(chǎn)vant – garde productionsD．skilled young dancers
【小題3】From the passage we know that the Ballet Rambert          .
A．has succeeded in making modern dance popular
B．wanted to become the oldest dance company
C．was once a popular dance company
D．changed old dance into new ones
【小題4】This passage is mainly about          .
A．the popularity of modern dance
B．the introduction to new modern dancers
C．the development of the Ballet Rambert
D．the high standard of dance performances

科目：高中英語 來源：遼寧省寬甸縣20092010學年度高一下學期期末聯(lián)考試卷（英語） 題型：閱讀理解

Pretoria, South Africa – Hundreds of swimmers play in the water along a South Africa beach. Suddenly a huge shark appears off shore and heads for the bathers. Before it can get close to the swimmers, the shark, for some mysterious reason, starts swimming parallel to the beach. Then it turns away from the shore and heads out to sea, leaving the swimmers untouched.

Such a scene will soon become common along shark-in-fasted (鯊魚成群的) shores. An electrical engineer from the University of Pretoria has developed an electrical system that repels (擊退) sharks by controlling their movements. Confused by this action, the sharks end up turning away from the beach.

In this unusual shark-repellent method, an insulated (絕緣的) cable is buried on the bottom of the sea around a beach where people swim. When an electric current is sent through the cable, an electric field is produced in the water above the cable.

When shark swims into the electric field, nerve cells just below the shark' s skin will sense the field. The electricity produces a reflex (反射作用) action in the shark' s muscles, causing the dangerous animal to swim parallel to the cable. Confused by increasing loss of control of its muscles, the shark suddenly changes its direction and heads seaward, away from the electric field.

In a test of the invisible new shark-repellent system, a cable was placed around a beach in St. Lucia, an island around the beach a long time ago to keep sharks away from swimmers, and a net was left in place during the experiment.

When the electric field was left on for more than a year and a half, no sharks were found in the net. However, when the power was turned off,89 sharks ended up in the net.

Using the electric-wall method instead of net to protect bathers would avoid the needless death of many sharks, said biologists. Currently, thousands of sharks die each year when they become trapped in protective nets that surround holiday resorts in Africa and Australia.  About 10 to 15 humans are killed by sharks annually.

1．Why doesn' t the shark attack the swimmers according to the passage?

A．Because there are so many swimmers in the water.

B．Because the shark isn’t so hungry as to eat the swimmers.

C．Because of some mysterious power from the heaven.

D．Because there is an invisible electric field confusing the shark.

2．An electrical engineer from the University of Pretoria has developed __      .

A．a(chǎn) protective net   

B．a(chǎn) new shark-repellent system

C．the electric field        

D．a(chǎn)n insulated cable

3．An electric field is produced in the water above the cable         .

A．only when a shark swims into the electric field

B．only when an insulated cable is buried on the bottom of the sea around a beach where people swim

C．only when an electric current is sent through the cable

D．only when the sharks are trapped in protective nets

4．Which of the following is NOT TRUE according to the passage?

A．Protective nets had been fixed earlier than the new shark-repellent system.

B．The new shark – repellent system will probably replace the protective nets.

C．Thousands of sharks have died each year since this new system was put into use.

D．Using the electric-wall instead of nets would avoid the needless death of many sharks.
