Where was the lost continent of Atlantis?In 1956 a Greek seismologist (地震学家) suggested that the great continent lay in the eastern Mediterranean Sea.More specifically south of Greece on the island of Santorini,which was called Thera in 1650 BC.Plato,a great Greek poet and historian,was interested in an ancient Egyptian story of a civilization,which Plato called Atlantis.He described Atlantis as the greatest civilization of its time.The people were famous for their beauty and their culture.Plato wrote about this beautiful place one thousand years after it was destroyed.His translation of the language of those ancient Egyptian writings was questionable.He also put the time of the disaster to be about 9,000 years,about 10 times earlier than it could have really occurred according to most historians.What happened to wipe this great civilization off the face of the Earth?A great volcanic eruption was the cause.A volcano named Santorini exploded and it blew most of the island into the heavens.When the caldera(火山口) formed,the tsunamis (海啸) produced by the crashing of the top of the volcano wiped out many cities and towns in the eastern Mediterranean.This tsunami was reported to have reached the height of over 300 feet.The earthquakes produced knocked down walls 100 miles away!Historians believe these sea waves were what caused the end of the great civilization in the Mediterranean.Archaeologists have recovered artifacts(史前古器) from the island lately that show a great ancient civilization was present on Thera about 3,800 years ago.It helps us to believe that Santorini may be the “Lost Continent of Atlantis〞!1.When was Atlantis destroyed by most historians?A.2,000 years ago.B.9,000 years ago.C.900 years ago.D.3,800 years ago.2.What caused the production of a huge tsunami over 300 feet tall?A.The form of caldera.B.The crashing of the top of the volcano.C.The great earthquake.D.The great sea waves.3.In the last paragraph,“it〞 probably refers to ________.A.the island of SantoriniB.the ancient Egyptian historyC.Plato's descriptionD.the discovery of these artifacts4.The passage is most likely to be found in ________.A.a history reportB.a story bookC.a travel guideD.a technological reportBThe Roman Empire was so big that there were a lot of different people with different cultures living in it,so you can't really say there was one way of living in the Roman Empire.People of minority races or cultures would probably feel lucky to have lived under the Roman Empire.There were people of so many different cultures travellingaround the empire interacting with each other that there had been in general a lot of tolerance(容忍) for other cultures.On the other hand,this contact did also cause tensions,which sometimes broke into violent killings of minority groups.People were forced into slavery in every corner of the Roman Empire,but the way slaves were treated depended on where you were and also on when.Big farms were usually worked by slave field­hands.But other slaves were house servants,like nurses,cooks,and boys who took care of the horses and they were generally better treated.A lot of slaves also worked for the Roman government,or for private businesses,as managers,or running a shop,or in small factories.All over the Roman Empire,many boys in cities seem to have gone to school,but most girls had to stay at home.Out in the countryside, probably hardly anyone could read or write.Very few people went to college,but those that did often travelled far from home,to Athens or Alexandria in Egypt,for a good education.Partly at school,and partly through their families or just playing ball games outside,kids all over the Roman Empire did have lots of friends.Girls and boys from rich families,however,were not allowed to get romantic together.Most marriages among the upper classes were arranged by the parents,but case was probably different for the poor.5.What life was like for people of minority races in the Roman Empire?A.Life for them was too hard to bear.B.They couldn't communicate with people of other cultures.C.They were forced to give up their own culture.D.Life for them was comfortable in a way.6.Of the following kinds of slaves,which group may be badly treated?A.House servants.B.Slaves working on farms.C.Boys taking care of horses.D.Slaves running a small shop.7.Which of the following statements is TRUE to education in Roman Empire?A.Education was open to both rich and poor people.B.In the countryside,only boys could receive education.C.People could not get college education in Roman Empire.D.Most of the girls were not allowed to go to school.8.What would be the BEST title of the passage?A.Ancient Roman EmpireB.Ancient Roman SlaveryC.Ancient Roman PeopleD.Ancient Roman EducationⅣ.翻译句子1.这对老夫妻每天都去同一个公园,从不厌烦。

Unit 5课时跟踪练(一) Warming Up & Reading — Pre-reading Ⅰ.阅读理解AA new course on world heritage and its conservation offers a good opportunity for the young people to learn about the legacy (遗产) of humanity and gain a sense of responsibility to help protect the planet we live on.According to a world heritage education programme jointlylaunched by the United Nations Educational, Scientific andCultural Organization (UNESCO) and China's Ministry ofEducation, the course will first be offered at several schoolsin Beijing before being included as a mandatory course (必修课) for high school students nationwide.The new course covers photos, slide shows and documentaries on the magnificence of the world heritage sites. The class aims to tell children what world heritage is and why and how it should be protected. A total of 177 nations, including China, have signed the Convention Concerning the Protection of World Cultural and Natural Heritage. Listed are 754 sites all over the world, of which 29 are in China — the third most after Spain and Italy. Currently, protection of the country's cultural and natural resources leaves much to be desired. Education is undoubtedly the best way to cultivate people's sense for protecting cultural and natural resources.The introduction of such a programme in Chinese classrooms will certainly help our young people realize the significance of common heritage, learning about world heritage sites, the history and traditions of different cultures, ecology, and the importance of protecting biological and cultural diversity.More importantly, it will help cultivate a sense of responsibility in the minds of young participants. This is critical in protecting these cultural and natural legacies, as well as our living environment and the limited resources for sustainable development.A.The world heritage education programme was jointly launched by the United States and China's Ministry of Education.B.The course will first be offered at all the schools in Beijing.C.Protection of the country's cultural and natural resources has been perfect thanks to people's efforts.D.China ranks high among the countries with 29 sites listed on the list.解析:选D 细节理解题。

More than 3 million years ago, our ancestors(祖先) were already on the march, rising on two legs to search for food, seek greener lands and, above all, to grow in body and brain. Let's meet some of them:

Their brains were at least as large as the average
modern humans', while their smaller bodies helped them deal with cold climates. They lived 30,000~230,000 years ago. Fossils have been found in France and Iraq since 1856.

第10讲Meeting your ancestors 语法篇____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________1.掌握现在完成进行时的用法;2.能够区分现在完成时与现在完成进行时。

现在完成进行时(1)结构由“have/has been+动词的现在分词”构成,表示从过去某时开始,一直持续到现在的动作,可能刚刚停止,也可能还在继续进行。

例如:We have been looking for you for an hour.我们找了你一个小时。

(动作刚停止)She has been teaching English since she graduated.她毕业后一直在教英语。

(动作还在继续进行)We have been going over maths these days.我们这些天一直在复习数学。

(动作还在继续进行)(2)有时现在完成进行时不是指某动作一直在不停的进行,而是表示一直到说话时为止的一段时间内一再重复的动作,常常带有感情色彩。

例如:She has been saying that 20 times. 这话她已经说了20遍了。

He has been calling on her several times this week. 他这个星期几次来看他。

We have been having a lot of rain recently. 最近雨水很多。

(3)有时现在完成进行时表示刚才或近来发生的动作,也可表示知道说话时为止的一段时间内发生的动作,这一动做到说话时已经结束,而且一般不再继续下去;这种用法主要表示某一动作所产生的结果或对现在的影响。

One enemy is treasure hunters who dive for ancient artifacts that they can sell to collectors.Once sold,these objects are lost to experts.The second enemy is dredging machines(挖掘机)often used to repair ports.These machines destroy wrecks and artifacts or bury them deeper under sand and mud.By teaching the public about the importance of underwater “museums〞 of the past,archaeologists are hoping to get support for laws to protect underwater treasures.36.What purpose does Paragraph 1 serve in the passage?A.To provide background information of the topic.B.To attract readers' attention to the topic.C.To use an example to support the topic.D.To offer basic knowledge of the topic.37.The aim of underwater archaeology is to ________.A.exploit water bodiesB.search for underwater lifeC.study underwater artifactsD.examine underwater environment38.Underwater archaeologists are worried because ________.A.sea hunters have better diving equipmentB.their knowledge of world history is limitedC.dredging machines cause damage to the portsD.sold artifacts can hardly be regained for research39.What is the main purpose of the passage?A.To introduce a young branch of learning.B.To discuss the scientists' problems.C.To explain people's way of life in the past.D.To describe the sunken ships.40.Who are the two enemies that underwater archaeologists have to fight?A.Treasure hunters and warships.B.Treasure hunters and dredging machines.C.Fishermen and whales.D.Dredging machines and whales.BRemote medicine is an aspect of medical technology that has been steadily developing in recent times.Remote medicine can be defined as experts helping to treat pat ients in remote areas by using high­end telecommunication systems.Sometimes physicians have to perform surgery on patients using robotic arms through these high­end telecommunication systems.Doctors in remote areas can purchase emergency medical supplies and first aid kits required for remote medicine treatment from popular online stores.Surgery has been performed successfully in many cases through remote medicine. Sometimes it is neither practical nor financially possible for the sick or injured to travel to developed nations for their medical treatment.Thanks to remote medicine,people in remote areas can get treatment from experts without having to travel.Although it is useful for patients across the globe,it could be difficult in certain cases to do due to problems with access,supplies and knowledge of local professionals.Doctors believe the biggest barrier is the difficulty in building a close relationship between doctors and patients because of the computer­mediated virtual communication.However,with lack of specialists in intensive care units in many rural areas across the globe,remote medicine provides a helping hand in monitoring and treating critical patients.Remote medical technology is only as good as the supplies on hand.Putting this technology into practice requires people in remote areas to have relevant emergency medical kits and emergency medical supplies to treat patients.Chinook Medical Gear is a very popular online store that offers a wide range of emergency medical supplies,medical kits,first aid kits,and containers that are specifically designed to be used in remote areas during emergencysituations.This online store also ships emergency medical supplies that assist field doctors to those remote areas.People involved in remote medical treatment can now be assured that they will receive well­stocked first aid kits as soon as possible from this online store.41.According to the passage,remote medicine refers to ________.A.medicine sent to patients living in remote areasB.treatment given to patients by doctorsC.emergency medical supplies and first aid kits bought from online stores D.treatment given to patients in remote areas through a high­end telecommunication system42.Some people choose remote medicine mainly because ________A.they think they can get better serviceB.they live in remote small villagesC.they want to try a new method of treatmentD.they can't afford to or are unable to travel a long distance43.According to the doctors,the biggest difficulty of remote medicine is a lack of ________.A.enough emergency medical kitsB.specialists in intensive care unitsC.a close link between doctors and patientsD.knowledge of local professionals44.It is implied in Paragraph 3 that remote medicine ________.A.needs the help of relevant equipmentB.has been widely used across the globeC.is more important than specialistsD.doesn't help much in rural areas45.What's the last paragraph mainly about?A.The correct ways of using emergency medical supplies.B.The importance of relevant equipment in remote medicine.C.An introduction to how field doctors use medical supplies.D.A store that offers things used in remote medicine.CImagine living for a week in a little French cottage,buying fresh vegetables from the farmer's market every morning,sipping(小口泯)coffee,and taking day tripsto neighboring villages.Sound appealing?That's the magic of slow travel,where the emphasis (重点)is less on sightseeing and more on taking in your surroundings at a relaxed pace.Slow travel is a branch of the slow food movement,which began in Italy in the 1980's as a protest(抗议)against the opening of a McDonald's in Rome.The slow food movement aims to preserve regional cooking,local farming,and traditional food preparation methods.This cultural idea has since developed into a whole way of life known as the Slow Movement,which emphasizes connection to food and families and,in the case of travel,connection to local people and cultures.Slow travel is not so much a particular mode of transportation as it is an attitude. Rather than attempting to put as many sights or cities as possible into each trip,the slow traveler takes time to explore each destination thoroughly and to experience the local culture. As Pauline Kenny says,“Slow travelers assume that they do not have to see everything on one trip,that there will be other trips.〞The clearest advantage of slow travel is reflected in the general nature of your trip.Traveling more slowly allows you to form a stronger connection to the place you're visiting,and you'll feel much less rushed.Another less clear advantage of slow travel is that it's generally much easier on the environment than other types of travel.While airplanes have recently been considered as major contributors to global warming, trains are a much moreeco­friendly choice-as are bikes and,of course,your own two feet!Slow travel is often kinder to your budget as well.Staying in one place for a week or more at a time reduces your transportation costs,and vacation rentals(度假出租屋) are often cheaper than hotels since they allow you to cook your own food instead of eating out for every meal.46.What do we know about slow travel?A.It mainly uses slow means of transportation.B.It encourages you to take time to enjoy your stay.C.It encourages a new and calm lifestyle.D.It is mainly connected with local food.47.Which of the following is NOT the original aim of the slow food movement?A.To preserve regional cooking.B.To preserve local farming.C.To preserve traditional food preparation methods.D.To emphasize the connection between food and family.48.From what Pauline said in Paragraph 3,we can infer that slow travelers ________.A.prefer to make friends with local peopleB.think it less important to know an area wellC.have something left to see on the next tripD.try to put as many sights as possible into one trip49.One of the advantages of slow travel shown in Paragraph 5 is that ________.A.it offers you an opportunity to exerciseB.it helps you make full use of your moneyC.it helps you see as many places as possibleD.it is environmentally friendly50.The purpose of this passage is ________.A.to introduce a way of travelB.to introduce a new way of lifeC.to compare different kinds of travelD.to show how traveling affects our lifeDThere are many scientists that study people who often lived hundreds or even thousands of years ago.We call them anthropologists.Items those primitive men,women,and children left behind when they died—everything from clothing to jewelry and tools—tell anthropologists a lot.And sometimes even their words survive.Experts believe that a discovery in Mexico is the oldest example of writing ever found in America.The people who created it probably lived 3,000 years ago,long before Christopher Columbus arrived in the New World.Workers digging in a rock mine happened to notice a stone block with marks carved onto its surface.They found the large piece of stone near the city of Cascajal,Mexico,which was once the capital of an ancient people called the Olmec.“There are signs on the bl ock that seem to show objects used by the Olmec during their religious ceremonies,〞says Dr Stephen Houston,of Brown University in the US.“There is a sign that looks very similar to a knife and another that looks like the chair of a King,〞he explains.Houston,an expert on the writing systems of ancient cultures,says the discovery is exciting because “it makes clear that the Olmec could read and write.It is likehearing voices from the past.〞But experts don't know exactly what the writing says.Finding other examples of Olmec writing could help decipher_the_puzzle.“We could have whole sets of ancient writing which will basically make ancient people speak to us directly,〞says Houston.“There are many puzzles to be solved,and this is just one of them.〞51.According to the passage,in order to learn more about the past,what items do scientists often use?A.Knives and chairs.B.Books and stones.C.People and animals.D.Clothing and jewelry.52.Why do we think the stone block mentioned in the passage is important?A.It allows scientists to translate the ancient language used in this area.B.It proves that people lived in this part of the world more than 3,000 years ago.C.It shows the people of the area had a written language.D.It is the evidence of the oldest form of writing ever found in America.53.Why are scientists interested in ancient languages?A.Because they can learn stories told during that time.B.Because they can speak directly with ancient people.C.Because it can allow them to understand ancient societies better.D.Because it will help learn about the origins of modern languages.54.Which of the following can replace the underlined expression in Paragraph 6?A.Find the meaning of the Olmec language.B.Discover when the Olmec people lived.C.Learn why the Olmec civilization disappeared.D.Learn how to speak Olmec.55.Which is probably the BEST title for the passage?A.New Language DiscoveredB.World's First BookC.Oldest Writing In The New WorldD.What Does It Say?Ⅳ.阅读表达(共5小题;每一小题3分,总分为15分)(2013·山东高考)[1]Jean Paul Getty was born in 1892 in Minneapolis,Minnesota.He became a

周口店北京人遗址
周口店位于北京西南50公里、房山城西5公里,地处山区和平原的衔接地带。

周口店遗址在周口店镇以西的龙骨山上,遗址面积2平方公里。

周口店遗址是我国出土古人类化石、文化遗物和古动物化石的考古遗址,内涵极为丰富,出土了大量的古人类化石、文化遗物和哺乳动物化石。

经过半个多世纪的发掘,先后发现埋藏着不同时期的各类化石的地点7处,即第1、第3、第4、第13、第15、第22地点和山顶洞人遗址。

地质时代从上早新世至晚更新世,年代范围从五百万年前到距今一万多年前为止。

北京人头盖骨的发现,使周口店成为世界闻名的早期人类发祥地。

在漫长的历史岁月中,这里曾生活着距今70万年至20万年前的北京人、距今10万年左右的新洞人、距今2.7万年前的山顶洞人。

1961年3月周口店北京人遗址被国务院公布为第1批全国重点文物保护单位;1987年12月11日,联合国教科文组织总干事签发证书,把周口店北京人遗址与我国的长城、北京故宫、秦陵、敦煌一起列入“世界文化遗产”清单。

周口店北京人遗址1921年开始发掘,1929年12月著名的古人类学家裴文中在周口店第一地点即猿人洞,挖掘出北京人第一具头盖骨充分证实了周口店确曾是远古人类的发祥地,从而确立了周口店在古人类发展史上的地位和史人类研究上的地位。

到目前为止,共发现完整和比较完整的头盖骨六个,头骨破片12件,下额骨15件,牙齿157个,股骨断片7件,胫骨1件,肱骨3件,锁骨1件,月骨1件。

全部骨骼分属40个男女老少不同的个体。

根据这些骨骼化石可以了解到北京人在体态上的一个突出现象是肢骨比头骨进步,肢骨很像现代人,头骨则保留着很多原始性,如额骨低平,明显后倾;眉脊骨粗壮而且向前突出;面部较短,吻部前伸;下颌骨前部向后方倾斜。

北京人的脑容量比现代人小,它的脑容量平均只有1059毫升,而现代人的脑容量则有1400毫升。

根据推算,北京人男性身高约为1.56米,女性身高1.44米。

“北京人”还保留着猿的特征,他们是从古猿类进化到现代人过程中的一个中间环节。

“北京人”的生命是相当短的,据古人类专家估计,68.2%的人死在14岁之前,超过50岁的人仅占4.5%。

北京人遗址还出土了97种哺乳动物化石和上万件石器。

“灰烬层”的发现,说明“北京人”已经能够使用火。

山顶洞人是1930年被发现的。

在1933年、1934年进行了系统发掘。

出土的有3具古人类的头盖骨,还有盆骨和股骨等等。

与古人类同时出土的还有:25件石器,磨光了的鹿角、140多件装饰品,如骨针,穿孔的贝壳、动物牙齿、河卵石;还有石珠和骨雕制品;以及33种哺乳动物的化石。

在古人类学分期中,山顶洞人属晚期智人阶段,在体质特征上基
本和现代人一样,脑容量约1300至1500毫升,正在现代人的脑容量变异范围内。

男性身高1.74米、女性1.59米,也和现代人相当。

研究表明,山顶洞人为原始的蒙古人种。

第4地点即新洞,此洞位于第1地点南约70米,1973年开始发掘,该地点发现了古人类的左上第一前臼齿,属早期智人,介于“北京人”与“山顶洞人”之间。

与“新洞人”同时出土的还有少量石器,40多种哺乳动物化石。

第15地点,位于新洞东侧,相距10米,它是1932年被发现的,在1934至1937年期间被发掘。

该地点出土了石器约1万件,哺乳动物化石达33种。
