Welcome to the Civic Art Museum’s Exhibit of West African Art, showing pieces from our collections. Background

The peoples of West Africa, including the Yoruba, the Dogon, the Igbo, and the Akan, have a long art tradition. Tribes (部落) in the area have developed different styles of art and architecture that are suited to the climate and available materials and based on their traditions.

Gallery A: Photographs of Traditional West African Architecture

This section shows historical and contemporary photographs of traditional West African architecture. Of particular interest are the photographs of the Dogon village. The design of the Dogon village is based on the human figure. Certain types of buildings are placed in particular areas according to the Dogon’s complex

philosophical(哲学上的) tradition. For example, the men’s houses are placed in the

“head” of the village, the leader’s house is in the “chest,” and the women’s houses are in the “hands.”

However, most masks are worn only at particular times or on special occasions. For example, among the Dan and the Kota, certain people wear special masks to show their power when they act as judges and policemen within the community. Among the Bambara of Mali, headdresses are worn during planting and harvest celebrations.

A Mexican teacher has been honored after a video showed her calming pupils as a gun battle raged(肆虐) outside her school.

Martha Rivera Alanis was presented with a certificate (证书)on Monday to recognize her bravery in ordering her class of five- and six-year-olds to lie on the floor of their classroom, before attempting to calm them by leading a chorus(合唱) of a song from television show Barney & Friends.

Rivera Alanis filmed some of the scenes from inside the classroom in Monterrey －

the sound of gunfire can be clearly heard － and posted the resulting video on Twitter. It was picked up and quickly spread around the Internet, with the 33-year old teacher earning the admiration of many.

“Of course. I was afraid, but my kids got me through it,” Rivera Alanis said. The video shows Rivera Alanis's 15 young pupils lying face down on the floor. \my love, nothing is going to happen. just put your little face on the floor, ” Rivera Alanis is heard telling one worried girl, before loud bursts of gunfire can be heard.

In the video, Rivera Alanis attempts to distract the children by leading them in a song from Barney & Friends. “If the rain drops were chocolate, I would love to be there, opening my mouth to taste them,” the class sang as they lay on the floor.

“My only thought was to take their minds off that noise,” Rivera Alanis said. “So I thought of that song.”

Rivera Alanis’s school and those in several Mexican cities hit by drug violence have held emergency drills (应急演练) in the past to instruct teachers and students what to do in case of gunfire. Drug-related violence is said to have killed more than 35,000 people in Mexico over the past four years.

“We do drills constantly, because the area where we are is a high-risk zone,” Rivera Alanis said, adding that the children “behaved in the way we had practiced”. 24. Why was Rivera Alanis given a certificate?

C. To praise her teaching achievement. D. To reward her efforts to end the battle.

Although fires are still a danger in every major city today, they were a much more serious problem in earlier centuries. The historic Fire of London was a serious example of the damage fire can cause .

Finally, however, this disaster also positively affected the city. In 1666, the Great Fire of London burned out of control for three days, destroying most of the central district of the city. The disaster caused a huge amount of damage － around seventy thousand people lost their homes. At the time, there were only about eighty thousand living in the city. There are no accurate records of how many people died in the fire because the worst damage happened in poor neighborhoods. Unfortunately, the government didn't record the deaths of poor people in those early times.

When the fire happened, people in London were already struggling to survive a large plague (瘟疫) outbreak that had begun in 1665. London’ s housing troubles were a major cause of the problem. At the time, much of central London consisted of closely packed and poorly made wooden buildings. This created an unhealthy environment because germs travelled freely from home to home . In addition, the buildings were on narrow, dirty streets where people threw their garbage. Rats were attracted by the garbage, and they brought fleas（跳蚤）－the carriers of the plague. Once people caught the plague from flea bites, the disease spread rapidly throughout the city especially in the cramped central district. It was in these terrible conditions that the Great Fire raged through London.

Despite the damage, the fire had a positive effect because it destroyed the old, poorly made wooden buildings. It also killed most of the rats and fleas, which slowed the spread of the plague. After the fire, the government rebuilt the damaged areas. Whenever possible, they used brick or stone. Thus, the new houses were much more solid and more difficult for rats to enter. Widened streets and improved garbage collection also helped to stop the disease from spreading from person to person because there was simply more room to walk.

28. Which of the following is TRUE about fires in the past?

A. They mainly happened in large cities B. They always had some positive effects C. They caused small amounts of damage.

D. They were more dangerous than fires today.

29. Why are there no accurate death records of the fire?

A. The numbers were beyond counting.

B. The government intended to hide the facts. C. The records were destroyed in another fire. D. The deaths of poor people were unrecorded

30. What does the underlined word “cramped” in Paragraph 3 mean?

A. Ancient.

B. Crowded.

C. Damaged.

D. Popular.

31. Why did the government rebuild the city with brick and stone after the fire?

A. To reduce building costs.

B. To make houses stronger. D. To stop the plague spreading.

C. To keep fleas out of the city.

D

We all want to believe that laughter is good for what makes us ill, but the science backing that up is thin. Most studies have been small and have relied on self-reported assessments.

However, a few studies relying on lab testing do show some benefits. \big laugh leads to the release of endorphins (chemicals that can make you feel happier) from the brain,\

A 2005 study by Miller measured the blood flow of 20 volunteers before and after watching a funny movie and a sad movie. After the sad movie, blood flow was more restricted (受限制的) in 14 of the 20 viewers. But after the movie that made them laugh, average blood flow increased by 22 percent.

Financial backing for laughter and humor research is weak － so weak that when Mary Bennett, director of the Western Kentucky University School of Nursing, wanted to look into the effect of laughter on the immune system, she found herself asking other researchers for equipment from their labs. “It’ s really hard to get taken seriously when you say you study laughter,” she says.

But her study of 33 healthy women, published in 2003, showed that those who laughed at a humorous movie had higher levels of natural killer cell activity, which increased their ability to fight off disease. However, the effect was seen only subjects who laughed out loud, not in those who quietly watched the comedy.

But most of the research on laughter and health depends on personal feelings or opinions rather than scientific facts. One study of 70 depressed elderly women found that laughter yoga was just as effective as exercise in improving mood, as measured by self-satisfaction reports by subjects.

When Bennett is asked whether laughter cures or prevents any disease, her quick answer is a simple “No.” Still, she adds, “I think it’ s a useful add-on to real medicine. If you’re receiving medicinal treatment, anything you can do to help you stay healthy through something unpleasant will help.”

32. What does the 2005 study show?

A. Funny movies may cause blood problems. B. Endorphins may make people happier. C. Sad movies are harmful to patients. D. Laughter may benefit health.

33. What is difficult problem for Bennett?

A. How to lead a research team. B. How to study laughter and humor. C. How to get support for he research.

D. How to do research on the immune system.

34. Who got health benefits from watching comedies in the 2003 study?

A. Those who watched quietly. B. Those who laughed aloud. C. Those who watched often. D. Those who laughed a lot. 35. What does Bennett say about laughter?

A. It is effective in limited way. B. It can only cure some diseases.
