Digs that are still ___6___ began in 1709 at Herculaneum, an Italian city buried in ash during the explosion of Mount Vesuvius in A. D. 79. The Danish scholar Carsten Niebuhr visited the ruins of Persepolis in the Middle East in 1765 to study cuneiform writing (楔形文字). ___7___, archaeology didn’t become a widely recognized science and schools didn’t recognize the subject as a scholarly pursuit until the 19th century. The term itself was ___8___ in 1837. It comes from a Latin word meaning “the study of antiquities (古物).” One of the first archaeologists to use a scientific approach to the discipline was Heinrich Schliemann of Germany, who in the late 1800s ___9___ the ancient civilization of the city of Troy.Today, archaeologists uncover the past in many different ___10___, including deserts and jungles, at sites called digs. Ancient sources, folk tales, and landscape features can suggest where archaeologists should look. Surveys of the land help them choose sites ___11___ to provide artifacts, the objects that will unlock the story of a particular people — their daily lives, their beliefs, and their ties to other cultures. A site, however, does not have to be old to be interesting to an archaeologist. Some prefer to study more ___12___ settlements. One scientist, for instance, studiescoal mining camps in California by examining the garbage that miners ___13___.

In February of 1974, Bill Tapp, an Australian farmer, saw a rain of fish that covered his farm. How surprised he must have been!What caused this strange occurrence? This is a question that had long puzzled people who study fish. The answer turned out to be a combination of wind and storm. When it is spring in the northern part of the world, it is fall in Australia. Throughoutthe autumn season, terrible storms arise and rains flood the land. The strong winds sweep over Australia like huge vacuum cleaners (吸尘器) collecting seaweed, pieces of wood, and even schools of fish. Strong winds may carry these bits of nature for many miles before vacuum dropped them on fields, houses, and astonished people.Although they seem unusual, fish-falls occur frequently in Australia. When Bill Tapp was asked to describe the scene of fish, he remarked, "They look like millions of dead birds falling down." His statement is not surprising. The wonders of the natural world are as common as rain. Nature, with it infinite wonders, can create waterfalls that flow upward and fish that fall out of the sky.1. What is this passage about?A. A wonder of rain.B. The Climate in Australia's northern part.C. A rain of fish.D. The damage done by floods.2.

Such comments seem to suggest Kahlo had a big influence on the art world of her time. Sadly, she is actually a much bigger name today than she was during her time.Born in 1907 in a village near Mexico City , Kahlo suffered from polio（小儿麻痹症）at the age of seven. Her spine （脊柱）become bent as she grew older. Then, in 1925, her back was broken in several places in a school-bus accident. Throughout the rest of her life, the artist had many operations, but noting was able to cure the terrible pain in her back. However, the accident had an unexpected side effect. While lying in her bed recovering, Kahlo taught herself to paint.In 1929, she got married to Diego Rivera, another famous Mexican artist. Rivera’s strong influences on Kahlo’s style can be seen in her early works, but her later works from the 1940s, known today as her best works, show less influence from her husband.Unfortunately, her works did not attract much attention in the 1930s and1940s, even in her home country. Her first one-woman show in Mexico was not held until 1953.For more than a decade after her death in 1954, Kahlo’s works remained largely unnoticed by the world, but in the 1970s her works began to gain international fame at last.64. What does the phrase “a much bigger name” in paragraph 1 most nearly mean?A. a far better artistB. a for more gifted artistC. a much stronger personD. a much more famous person65. The terrible pain Kahlo suffered was caused by .A. polioB. her bent spineC. back injuriesD. the operations she had66.

Encouragement64、D 我们可以用better 和gifted来描写她，但是文章中说她的主要悲剧是不被大众认识。

One of the least understood involves the 1 roles of producer or “provider” and purchaser or “consumer” in the typical doctor-patient relationship. In most sectors of the economy, it is the seller who attempts to attract a(n) 2 buyer with various inducements (引诱) of price, quality, and utility, and it is the buyer who makes the decision. Such condition,3 , is not common in most of the health-care industry.In the health-care industry, the doctor-patient relationship is the mirror image of the4 relationship between producer and consumer. Once an individual has chosen to see a physician—and even then there may be no real choice– it is the physician who usually makes all significant5 decisions: whether the patient should return “next Wednesday,” whether X-rays are needed, whether drugs should be prescribed, etc. It is a rare and experienced patient who will6 such decisions made by experts or raise in advance questions about price, especially when the disease is regarded as7 .This is particularly 8 in relation to hospital care. The physician must give evidence of the 9 for hospitalization, determine what procedures will be performed, and announce when the patient may be allowed to leave. The patient may be consulted about some of these decisions, but in the main it is the doctor’s judgments that are 10 . Little wonder then that in the eye of the hospital it is the physician who is the real “consumer.” As a consequence, the 11 represents the “power center” in hospital policy and decision-making, not the administration.Although usually there are in this situation four recognizable participants — the physician, the hospital, the patient, and the payer (generally an insurance carrier or government) — the physician makes the 12 for all of them. The hospital becomes an extension of the physician; the payer generally 13 most of the bills generated by the physician/hospital; and for the most part the patient plays a 14 role. We estimate that about 75-80 percent of health-care 15 are determined by physicians, not patients. For this reason, economy directed at patients or the general are relatively ineffective.1. A. peculiar B. normal C. minor D. vital2. A. eager B. potential C. overseas D. reluctant3. A. moreover B. therefore C. however D. instead4. A. ordinary B. permanent C. stable D. intense5.

Unit2 Witnessing time课外阅读练习阅读文章，选择正确答案，回答问题。

In some urban centers, work holism is so common that people do not consider it unusual: they accept the lifestyle as normal. Government workers in Washington D.C., for example, frequently work sixty to seventy hours a week. They don’t do this because they have to; they do it because they want to.Work holism can be a serious problem. Because true workaholics (工作狂) would rather work than do anything else, they probably don’t know how to relax.Is work holism always dangerous? Perhaps not. There are, certainly, people who work well under stress. Some studies show that many workaholics have great energy and interest in life. Their work is so pleasurable that they are actually very happy. For most workaholics, work and entertainment keep them busy and creative.Why do workaholics enjoy their jobs so much? There are several advantages to work. Of course, it provides people with paychecks, and this is important. But it offers more than financial security. It provides people with self-confidence; they have a feeling of satisfaction when they’ve produced a challenging piece of work and are able to say, “I made that.” Psychologists claim that work gives people an identity through participation in work, they get a sense of self and individualism. In addition, most jobs provide people with a socially acceptable way to meet others. Perhaps some people are compulsive about their work, but their addiction seems to be a safe-even an advantageous-one.1. The passage indicates that workaholics ______.A. just know work but nothing elseB. are willing to work hard for long hours without payC. find their work provide them more satisfaction and self-confidence than how much they are paidD. has the work with more responsibility than others2. One of the reasons that some people are not willing to quit their jobs even intheir eighties and nineties is that ______.A. they are in the need of financial securityB. they would rather work than be disturbed by domestic affairsC. they long for a sense of identity and being accomplishedC. they may have health problems from sheer boresom3. This passage is mainly about ______.A. workaholics are usually successful people, but their lives are in a messB. work holism can lead to serious problems but it can also create a joyful lifeC. people who are absorbed in their work may enjoy movies, sports and other kinds of entertainmentD. those who work even under difficult conditions may be very happy4. It can be inferred from the passage that ______.A. in the eyes of all the common people workaholics are peculiarB. to workaholics, work is the sole source of happinessC. a piece of challenging work may provide the workaholics a sense of satisfactionD. workaholics are as addicted to their job as other people are to drugs or alcohol答案：1. C2. C3. B4. D。

I‟ve never watched her show, but when a self－made billionaire gives life advice,it‟s probably worth listening to.Her point is that blind luck is very rare. You may have to be lucky to find a good job these days but that does not mean you should sit at home waiting for the opportunity to come to you. If you‟re a Chinese，you may already be familiar with the tale of a farmer waiting by a tree stump (树桩) for a rabbit to run out and break its neck.A book written by the UK psychologist Richard Wiseman, called The Luck Factor, argues we can all make ourselves luckier. It‟s not about going to a temple to burn some incense (香) in hopes that the gods will give you good fortune；it‟s practical advice you can follow each day.Wiseman conducted an experiment as part of his studies. First he separated volunteers into two groups：those who said they were lucky in life and those who said they were not. He gave everyone anewspaper and asked them to look through it to count how many photographs it had inside. On average, the unlucky people took about two minutes to count the photographs while the lucky people took just seconds. Why? On the second page of the newspaper, a command, “Stop counting. There are 43 photographs in this newspaper，” was written in big letters. The unlucky people mostly did not spot the message.It‟s eas y to compare this situation to a young person looking for jobs in a local paper. They might search so hard for one type of position that they miss an even better opportunity. People who are “lucky”，in fact, keep an open mind and don‟t go through the same routine every day.I first came to China in 2002 when it was considered a rather strange thing to do. Like many foreigners，my plan was to teach English for one year. Seven years later, and still here, I‟ve had many great opportunities such as writing for newspapers and magazines. I did not dream these would have been possible. I‟ve al so never been sick, had an accident, got into a fight or had problems with the police. Coincidence? After reading about Professor Wiseman‟s studies I think not.As Wiseman advises, I usually trust my own judgment. Your friends and parents may give you ad vice based on rational thinking, but it‟s important to consider how you feel about each choice you make. Your feeling acts as a warning for a potential problem.Finally, try to turn bad luck into good.Even if you do fall down and break a leg, the time spent at home can be used wisely to study English.1. Which of the follow ing proverbs most agrees with the writer‟s point?A．Make the best of a bad job.B．Rome was not built in a day.C．All that glitters is not gold.D．A good heart conquers ill fortune.2. What do you know about Oprah Winfrey?A．She became famous through her family background.B．She was very lucky and seldom suffered setbacks in her life.C．She is a British talk show host.D．She became successful by her own effort.3. The writer quoted the Chinese tale of a farmer in order to show________.A. luck is in your own handB．bad luck can turn into goodC．you should not sit at home waiting for the opportunity to come to youD．man can conquer nature4. The underlined wo rd “spot” is the closest in meaning to“________”.A．recognize B．markC．locate D．receive[解题导语]本文为议论文。

阅读下列短文, 从给的四个选项(A、B、C和D) 中, 选出最佳选项。

Today, ultrasonic(超声的) waves are being put to work in laboratories and factories. If an ultrasound generator is placed in a liquid, the waves move the liquid back and forth hundreds of thousands of times each second. This causes materials to mix quickly or to dissolve(使分解，使溶解) in liquids. Paint manufacturers(制造商) use ultrasound to do a better job of blending colors. The companies that make film for your camera find that mixing chemicals by the use of sound waves will produce a more sensitive film.The new lightweight(轻量的) type of washing machine uses ultrasonic waves to get clothes clean. Its special ultrasound generator is put into a pail of soapy water containing the soiled clothes. The sound waves drive the soapy water back and forth through the cloth so fast that everything is soon clean. There is also a new kind of dishwasher that works in much the same way.Ultrasonic waves can shake a liquid so fast that tiny holes form all through it. The liquid is actually torn apart by this action. Almost as soon as these holes are made, they fall together again. The result is a powerful pounding action. In the dairy industry this is used for the double purpose of making homogenized(使均匀，使匀质) milk and sterilizing(使无菌) it at the same time. If you look at some raw milk with a microscope, you find that it is made up of little drops of butter fat floatingaround in a watery liquid. In order to make milk easier to digest, these fat droplets(微粒) may be broken up by forcing the milk through very small openings. The result is called homogenized milk. When the ultrasonic method is used, the sound waves not only break up the droplets but also kill the germs in the milk by pounding them to pieces. (from )1. Why does a paint manufacturer use ultrasound to do a better job of blending colors?A. Because it is cheap to use ultrasound to blend colors.B. Because the waves move the liquid so quickly that it can make materials mix quickly or dissolve in liquids.C. Because they can mix chemicals by the use of sound waves.D. Because the waves can clean the paint.2. What properties does ultrasound wave have?A. Homogenizes and sterilizes the milk.B. Mix materials and break droplets.C. Kill germs and sterilize milk.D. Move liquids quickly.3. What exists in the raw milk?A. Little drops of butter fat.B. Small holes.C. Fat droplets and germs.D. Chemicals.4. Where is ultrasound wave not used?A. In the paint manufacture.B. In the shop mixing bread flour.C. In the film-making company.D. In the dairy industry.1. B 事实细节题。

In February of 1974, Bill Tapp, an Australian farmer, saw a rain of fish that covered his farm. How surprised he must have been!What caused this strange occurrence? This is a question that had long puzzled people who study fish. The answer turned out to be a combination of wind and storm. When it is spring in the northern part of the world, it is fall in Australia. Throughout the autumn season, terrible storms arise and rains flood the land. The strong winds sweep over Australia like huge vacuum cleaners (吸尘器) collecting seaweed, pieces of wood, and even schools of fish. Strong winds may carry these bits of nature for many miles before vacuum dropped them on fields, houses, and astonished people.Although they seem unusual, fish-falls occur frequently in Australia. When Bill Tapp was asked to describe the scene of fish, he remarked, "They look like millions of dead birds falling down." His statement is not surprising. The wonders of the natural world are as common as rain. Nature, with it infinite wonders, can create waterfalls that flow upward and fish that fall out of the sky.1. What is this passage about?A. A wonder of rain.B. The Climate in Australia's northern part.C. A rain of fish.D. The damage done by floods.2. Fish-falls occur in Australia _____.A. quite oftenB. not so frequentlyC. only in winterD. when the air is calm3. The word "infinite" is closest in meaning to ___.A. easyB. difficultC. countlessD. dangerous参考答案、A) CACBWhen Frida Kahlo's pain tings were on show in London, a poet described her paintings as “ a ribbon （丝带）around a bomb”. Such comments seem to suggest Kahlo had a big influence on the art world of her time. Sadly, she is actually a much bigger name today than she was during her time.Born in 1907 in a village near Mexico City , Kahlo suffered from polio（小儿麻痹症）at the age of seven. Her spine （脊柱）become bent as she grew older. Then, in 1925, her back was broken in several places in a school-bus accident. Throughout the rest of her life, the artist had many operations, but noting was able to cure the terrible pain in her back. However, the accident had an unexpected side effect. While lying in her bed recovering, Kahlo taught herself to paint.In 1929, she got married to Diego Rivera, an other famous Mexican artist. Rivera’s strong influences on Kahlo’s style can be seen in her early works, but her later works from the 1940s, known today as her best works, show less influence from her husband.Unfortunately, her works did not attract much attention in the 1930s and1940s, even in her home country. Her first one-woman show in Mexico was not held until 1953.For more than a decade after her death in 1954, Kahlo’s works remained largely unnoticed by the world, but in the 1970s her works began to gain international fame at last.64. What does the phrase “a much bigger name” in paragraph 1 most nearly mean?A. a far better artistB. a for more gifted artistC. a much stronger personD. a much more famous person65. The terrible pain Kahlo suffered was caused by .A. polioB. her bent spineC. back injuriesD. the operations she had66. Kahlo’s style had become increasingly independent since the .A.1930sB. 1940sC. 1950sD. 1970s67. What is author’s attitude toward Kahlo?A. DevotionB. SympathyC. WorryD. Encouragement64、D 我们可以用better 和gifted来描写她，但是文章中说她的主要悲剧是不被大众认识。

Usually large fires destroyed forests in these areas over the past decade. Scientists predict that with climate warming, fires may occur more frequently over next several centuries as a result of a longer fire season. Sunlight taken in by the earth tends to cause warming, while heat mirrored back into space tends to cause cooling.This is the first study to analyze all aspects of how northern fires influence climate. Earlier studies by other scientists have suggested that fire in northern regions speed up climate warming because greenhouse gases from burning trees and plants are released into the atmosphere and thus trap heat.Scientists found that right after the fire, large amounts of greenhouse gases entered the atmosphere and caused warming. Ozone（臭氧）levels increased, and ash from the fire fell on far-off sea ice, darkening the surface and causing more radiation from the sun to be taken in. The following spring, however, the land within the area of the fire was brighter than before the fire, because fewer trees covered the ground. Snow on the ground mirrored more sunlight back intospace, leading to cooling.“We need to find out all possible ways to reduce the growth of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere.” Scientists tracked the change in amount of radiation entering and leaving the climate system as a result of the fire, and found a measurement closely related to the global air temperature. Typically, fire in northern regions occurs in the same area every 80 to 150 years. Scientists, however, found that when fire occurs more frequently, more radiation is lost from the earth and cooling results. Specifically, they determined when fire returns 20 years earlier than predicated, 0.5 watts per square meter of area burned are soaked up by the earth from greenhouse gases, but 0.9 watts per square meter will be sent back into space. The net effect is cooling. Watts are used to measure the rate at which energy is gained or lost from the earth.56. According to the new findings, taking steps to prevent northern forest fires may _______.A. result in a warming climateB. cause the forest fires to occur more frequentlyC. lead to a longer fire seasonD. protect the forests and the environment there57. Earlier studies about northern forest fires ________.A. analyze all aspects of how northern fires influence climateB. indicate that forest fires will pollute the atmosphereC. suggest that people should take measures to protect environmentD. suggest that the fires will speed up climate warming58. The underlined phrase “soaked up” in the last paragraph most probably means ________.A. releasedB. absorbedC. createdD. disturbed59. From the text we can draw a conclusion that forest fires in Alaska, Canada and Siberia may______.A. warm the climate as the assumption goesB. allow more snow to reflect more sunlight into space and thus cool the climateC. destroy large areas of forests and pollute the far-off sea iceD. help to gain more energy rather than release more energyBA chip inserted in a young quadriplegic's (四肢麻痹患者) brain is already improving his quality of life. Soon the benefits may be more widespread.A 25-year-old man unable to move from the neck down recently did what many assumed impossible. After a knife attack that had left him paralyzed, all he could move was his head, which he used to push a switch and call for a nurse. And he could turn his wheelchair by blowing into a straw near his face. That was it.Then last June, a Foxborough (Mass.) company called Cyber Kinetics opened the man's skull and inserted a special chip no larger than a baby aspirin. That insert has given him a few additional and precious abilities. When connected to a special computer via a cable, the chip translates the young man's thoughts into commands that let him move a cursor across a PC screen and open e-mail. He can draw a circle with a computer painting program. And he can use a robotic hook(钩) to perform simple tasks like picking up a candy and sliding it across a table.All he has to do is to think.Several new studies have begun or been completed in the past year. In fact, more than half of the scientific papers in this field, called brain-to-computer interaction (BCI), have been published in the past two years, notes Jonathan Wolpaw, a research physician at Wadsworth Center, the New York State Health Dept.'s research laboratory.Brain surgeries (手术) are no longer rare: Thousands of Parkinson's disease patients have had special devices inserted in their brains to ease uncontrollable shaking and other symptoms. The inserts themselves have improved, so the body doesn't reject them as furiously(猛烈地). And significant development has been achieved in software used to interpret the brain's signals and change them into commands understood by computers.But increased demand for thought technology remains the biggest reason for the field's progress. Today, 4 million Americans live with paralysis according to the Christopher Reeve Paralysis Foundation.Scientists hope that thought technology will reduce the impact of such disabilities. People with spinal-cord injuries, for example, often lose their ability to walk because the communications network between their brain and their legs has been interrupted. The brain still commands the leg muscles to move, but they don't hear its orders.Thought technology, scientists hope, will bridge this communications gap. "Our goal is for you to see paralyzed people eating at a restaurant and for you not to know that they are paralyzed," says John Donoghue, founder and chief scientific officer at Cyber Kinetics.60. What was the young man’s trouble after a knife attack?A. It was impossible for him to do anything.B. By no means could he call for a nurse.C. He could not use his organs under the neck.D. He was unable to move his head.61. What plays the most important role in improving the young man’s quality of life?A. A chipB. A computerC. A robotic hookD.A company62. What can we learn from Paragraph Six?A. There used to be a lot of brain surgeries.B. There has been some progress in the field of thought technology.C. People with Parkinson's disease reject the use of the chip in their brains.D. No software ha s been developed to interpret the brain’s signals.63. What is the passage mainly about?A. Communications gapB. Thought technologyC. American quadriplegicsD. Human brainsCSports is not only physically challenging, but it can also mentally challenging. Criticism（批评）from coaches(trainers), parents, and other teammates, as well as pressure to win can create too much anxiety or stress for young athletes. Stress can be physical, emotional, or psychological, and research has showed that it can lead to burnout. Burnout has been described as dropping or quitting of an activity that was at one time enjoyable.The early years of development are critical years for learning about oneself. The sport setting is one where valuable experiences can take place. Young athletes can, for example, learn how to cooperate with others, make friends, and gain other social skills that will be used throughout their lives. Coaches and parents should be aware(realize), at all times, that their feedback（反馈）to youngsters can g reatly affect their children. Youngsters many take their parents’ and coaches’ criticisms to heart and find a flaw（缺陷）in themselves.Coaches and parents should also be cautious(careful) that youth sport participation does not become work for children. The outcome of the game should not be more important than the process of learning the sport and other life lessons. In today’s youth sport setting, young athletes may be worrying more about who will win instead of enjoying themselves and the sport.Following a game, many parents and coaches focus on(pay more attention to) the outcome and find fault with youngsters’ performances. Positive reinforcement should be provided in spite of the outcome. Research shows that positive reinforcement motivates and has a greater effect on learning than criticism. Again, criticism can create high levels of stress(pressure), which can lead to burnout.64. According to the passage sport is positive for young people in that .A. it can help them learn more about societyB. it teaches them how to set realistic goals for themselvesC. it enables them to find flaws in themselvesD. it can provide them with valuable experiences65. According to the passage parents and coaches should .A. help children to win every gameB. pay more attention to letting children enjoy sportsC. enable children to understand the positive aspect of sportsD. train children to deal with stress66. The author’s purpose in writing the passage is .A. to persuade young children not to worry about criticismB. to emphasize the importance of positive reinforcement to childrenC. to discuss the skill of combing criticism with encouragementD. to teach young athletes how to avoid burnoutDMy father's reaction to the bank building at 43rd Street and Fifth Avenue in New York city was immediate and definite: "You won't catch me putting my money in there!" he declared, "Not in that glass box !"Of course, my father is a gentleman of the old school, a member of the generation to whom a good deal of modern architecture is upsetting, but I am convinced that his negative response was not so much to the architecture as to a violation of his concept of the nature of money .In his generation money was thought of as a real commodity (实物)that could be carried, or stolen. Consequently, to attract the custom of a sensible man, a bank had to have heavy walls, barred windows, and bronze（青铜）doors, to affirm the fact, however untrue, that money would be safe inside. If a building's design made it appear impenetrable（难以渗透的）, the institution （公共机构, 协会, 制度）was necessarily reliable, and the meaning of the heavy wall as an architecture symbol dwelt in the prevailing attitude toward money.But the attitude toward money has, of course, changed. Excepting pocket money, cash of any kind is now rarely used; money as a tangible（切实，实在）commodity has largely been replaced by credit. A deficit (赤字) economy, accompanied by huge expansion, has led us to think of money as product of the creative imagination. The banker no longer offers us a safe: he offers us a service in which the most valuable element is the creativity for the invention of large numbers. It is in no way surprising, in view of this change in attitude, that we are witnessing the disappearance of the heavy-walled bank.Just as the older bank emphasized its strength, this bank by its architecture boasts of imaginative powers. From this point of view it is hard to say where architecture ends and human assertion (人们的说法)begins.67. The main idea of this passage is that________ .A．money is not as valuable as it was in the pastB．changes have taken place in both the appearance and the concept of banksC．the architectural style of the older bank is superior to that of the modern bankD．prejudice makes the older generation think that the modern bank is unreliable[来68. How do the older generation and the younger one think about money?A．The former thinks more of money than the latter.B．The younger generation values money more than the older generation.C．Both generations rely on the imaginative power of bankers to make money.D．To the former money is a real commodity but to the latter be a means to produce more money.69. According to this passage, a modern banker should be __________.A．ambitious and friendly B．reliable and powerfulC．sensible and impenetrable D．imaginative and creative70. It can be inferred from the passage that the author's attitude towards the new trend in bankingis _______.A．cautious B．regretful C．positive D．hostile(敌意的)IV.任务型阅读Many people think a telephone is a necessity. But I think it is a pest (有害的事物) and a time waste. Very often you find it impossible to escape from it. If you have a telephone in your own house, you will admit that it tends to ring when you least want it to ring; when you are asleep, or in the middle of a meal or a conversation or when you are just going out, or when you are in your bath. Are you strong-minded enough to ignore it? You are not. You think there may be some important news or message for you. I can assure you that if a message is really important it will reach you sooner or later. Have you ever rushed crippling from the bath, or chewing from the table, or dazed from the bed, only to be told that you are a wrong number?But you will say, you need not have your name printed in the telephone directory, and you can have a telephone which is only usable for outgoing calls. Besides, you will say, isn’t it important to have a telephone in case of sudden emergency—illness, accident, or fire? Of course, you are right, but here in a thickly populated country like England one is seldom far from a telephone in case of dreadful necessity.I think perhaps I had better try to justify (证明是有理的) myself by trying to prove that what I like is good. I admit that in different circumstances—if I were a wealthy and powerful businessperson, for instance, or badly ill and had to lie in bed, I might find a telephone a necessity. But then if I were a taxi-driver I should find a car as necessity. Let me put it another way: there are two things for which the English seem to show particular talent: one is mechanical invention, the other literature. My own business happens to be with the use of words but I see I must now stop using them, for I have had just been handed a slip of paper to say that somebody is waiting to speak to me on the telephone. I think I had better answer it. After all, one never knows, it may be something important.Title: The (71) _____________Different(77) about it Many peopleIt is (72) when one wants to make a call,especially in time of (73) .The authorIt can (74) time and even be (75) .Not everyone, (76) a businessperson or a sickperson who has to stay in bed, needs it.I don’t need it because my job is writing.(78)with it It always seems to ring when one is doing something else or doesn’t want it to ring.

Unlike most of the Netherlands, Hilversum is actually in a hilly area with the soil mostly consisting of sand. Once called the Garden of Amsterdam, it still attracts travelers to come over to cycle and walk through the surrounding forests. They visit it for a relaxing day off from the urban madness. For Dutch people, Hilversum is all about tex tile(纺织) and media industries, and modern architecture.In history, Hilversum was largely an agricultural area. Daily life was marked by farming, sheep raising and wool production. A railway link to Amsterdam in 1874 attracted rich traders from Amsterdam to Hilversum. They build themselves largevillas(别墅) in the wooded surroundings of the town. One of the families moving in was the Brenninkmeijers, currently the wealthiest family of the Netherlands. They moved in after big success in the textile industry and aided a substantial textile industry in Hilversum. But the textile boom lasted only several decades. The last factory closedin the 1960s.The change to a media economy started in 1920, when the Nederlandse Seintoestedllen Fabriek(NSF) established a radio factory in Hilversum. Most radio stations called in the large villas in the leafy areas of the town. Television gave another push to the local economy. Hilversum became the media capital of the Netherlands, and Dutch television stars moved into the leafy neighborhoods surrounding the town.In the early 1900s, modern architects W．M. Dudo k and J. Duiker placed hundreds of remarkable buildings in Hilversum. These modern architectural masterpieces(杰作) are so many that Hilversum almost feels like an open air museum. Dudok alone shaped most 20th century Hilversum and approximately 75 buildings in 1928～1931. It has wide international fame and is included in many architecture textbooks. The building has a rem arkable shape and looks like a combination of “blocks”. Actually, one may start his journey of modern architecture by walking or biking the W．M. Dudok Architectural Route in Hilversum.36. Hilversum is different from most of the Netherlands in that ________．A. it has a large populationB. it is cut off fr om big citiesC. it has many beautiful gardensD. it is in a hilly area with sandy soil37. What was the greatest contribution of the Brenninkmeijers to Hilversum?A. Building a railway link to Amsterdam.B. Helping its textile industry to develop.C. Constructing large villas for the poor.D. Assisting its agricultural industry.38. The beginning of the media industry in Hilversum was marked by the establishment of ________．A. a radio factoryB. the medial capitalC. a radio stationD. a TV station39. What is known about W．M. Dudok's Hilversum Town Hall?A. It consists of approximately 75 buildings.B. It looks like an open air museum in the city.C. It is a classic example in architecture textbooks.D. It has shaped most of 20th century Hilversum.B(*)The production of coffee beans is a huge, profitable business, but, unfortunately, full－sun production is taking over the industry and bringing about a lot of damage. The change in how coffee is grown from shade－grown production to full－sun production endangers the very existence of certain animals and birds, and even disturbs the world's ecological balance.On a local level, the damage of the forest required by full－sun fields affects the area's birds and animals. The shade of the forest trees provides a home for birds and other species(物种) that depend on the trees' flowers and fruits. Full－sun coffee growers destroy this forest home. As a result, many species are quickly dying out.On a more global level, the destruction of the rainforest for full－sun coffee fields also threatens(威胁)human life. Medical research often makes use of theforests' plant and animal life, and the destruction of such species could prevent researchers from finding cures for certain diseases. In addition, new coffee－growing techniques are poisoning the water locally, and eventually the world's groundwater.Both locally and globally, the continued spread of full－sun coffee plantations(种植园)could mean the destruction of the rainforest ecology. The loss of shade trees is already causing a slight change in the world's climate, and studies show that loss of oxygen－giving trees also leads to air pollution and global warming. Moreover, the new growing techniques are contributing to acidic(酸性的) soil conditions.It is obvious that the way much coffee is grown affects many aspects of life, from the local environment to the global ecology. But consumers do have a choice. They can purchase shade－grown coffee whenever possible, although at a higher cost. The future health of the planet and mankind is surely worth more than an inexpensive cup of coffee.40. What can we learn about full－sun coffee production from Paragraph 4?A. It limits the spread of new growing techniques.B. It leads to air pollution and global warming.C. It slows down the loss of shade trees.D. It improves local soil conditions.41. The purpose of the text is to ________．A. entertainB. advertiseC. instructD. persuade42. Where does this text probably come from?A. An agricultural magazine.B. A medical journal.C. An engineering textbook.D. A tourist guide.43. Which of the following shows the structure of the whole text?四、根据所给提示翻译下列句子44. 是做这份工作的能力而不是你是谁才是重要的。
