A.About A.D.400 B.Between A.D.400 AND A.D.700 C.About A.D.1200 D.In thesixteenth century 28.According to the passage, how did the agriculture of the Mississippians differ from that of their Hopewell predecessors? A.The Mississippians produced more durable and larger crops of food.B.The Mississippians sold their food to other groups.C.The Mississippians could only grow plants in warm, dry climates.D.The Mississippians produced special foods for their religious leaders.29.Why does the author mention that many Mississippians tribes called themselves “children of the Sun”(line 22)? A.To explain why they were obedient to their priest-chiefs.B.T o argue about the importance of religion in their culture.C.To illustrate the great importance they placed on agriculture.D.To provide an example of their religious rituals.30.The phrase “charged with” in line 26 is closest in meaning to A.passed on B.experienced at C.interested in D.assigned to 31.According to the passage, the flat-topped mounds in Mississippian towns were used for all of the following purposes EXCEPT A.religious ceremonies B.meeting places for the entire community C.sites for commerce D.burial sites Question 32-40: Overland transport in the United States was still extremely primitive in 1790.Roads were few and short, usually extending from inland communities to the nearest river town or seaport.Nearly all interstate commerce was carried out by sailing ships that served the bays and harbors of the seaboard.Yet, in 1790 the nation was on the threshold of a new era of road development.Unable to finance road construction, states turned for help to private companies, organized by merchants and land speculators who had a personal interest in improved communications with the interior.The pioneer in this move was the state of Pennsylvania, which chartered a company in 1792 to construct a turnpike, a road for the use of which a toll, or payment,is collected, from Philadelphia to Lancaster.The legislature gave the company the authority to erect tollgates at points along the road where payment would be collected, though it carefully regulated the rates.(The states had unquestioned authority to regulate private business in this period.)The company built a gravel road within two years, and the success of the Lancaster Pike encouraged imitation.Northern states generally relied on private companies to build their toll roads, but Virginia constructed a network at public expense.Such was the road building fever that by 1810 New York alone had some 1,500 miles of turnpikes extending from the Atlantic to Lake Erie.Transportation on these early turnpikes consisted of freight carrier wagons and passenger stagecoaches.The most common road freight carrier was the Conestoga wagon, a vehicle developed in the mid-eighteenth century by German immigrants in the area around Lancaster, Pennsylvania.It featured large, broad wheels able to negotiate all but the deepest ruts and holes, and its round bottom prevented the freight from shifting on a hill.Covered with canvas and drawn by four to six horses, the Conestoga wagon rivaled the log cabin as the primary symbol of the frontier.Passengers traveled in a variety of stagecoaches, the most common of which had four benches, each holding three persons.It was only a platform on wheels, with no springs;slender poles held up the top, and leather curtains kept out dust and rain.32.Paragraph 1 discusses early road building in the United States mainly in terms of the A.popularity of turnpikes B.financing of new roads C.development of the interior ws governing road use 33.The word “primitive” in line 1 is closest in meaning to A.unsafe B.unknown C.inexpensive D.undeveloped 34.In 1790 most roads connected towns in the interior of the country withA.other inland communitiesB.towns in other statesC.river towns or seaportsD.construction sites 35.The phrase “on the threshold of” in line 4 and 5 is closest in meaning to A.in need of B.in place of C.at the start of D.with the purpose of 36.According to the passage, why did states want private companies to help with road building? A.The states could not afford to build roads themselves.B.The states were not as well equipped as private companies.C.Private companies could complete roads faster than the states.D.Private companies had greater knowledge of the interior.37.The word “it” in line 11 refers to A.legislature pany C.authority D.payment 38.The word “imitation” in line 14 is closest in meaning to A.investment B.suggestion C.increasing D.copying 39.Virginia is mentioned as an example of a state that A.built roads without tollgates B.built roads with government money pleted 1,500 miles of turnpikes in one year D.introduced new law restricti ng road use 40.The “large, broad wheels” of the Conestoga wagon are mentioned in line 21 as an example of a feature of wagons that was A.unusual in mid-eighteenth century vehicles B.first found in Germany C.effective on roads with uneven surfaces D.responsible for frequent damage to freightQuestion 41-50: In Death Valley, California, one of the hottest, most arid places in North America, there is much salt, and salt can damage rocks impressively.Inhabitants of areas elsewhere, where streets and highways are salted to control ice, are familiar with the resulting rust and deterioration on cars.That attests to the chemically corrosive nature of salt, but it is not the way salt destroys rocks.Salt breaks rocks apart principally by a process called crystal prying and wedging.This happens not by soaking the rocks in salt water, but by moistening their bottoms with saltwater.Such conditions exist in many areas along the eastern edge of central Death Valley.There, salty water rises from the groundwater table by capillary action through tiny spaces in sediment until it reaches the surface.Most stones have capillary passages that suck salt water from the wet ground.Death Valley provides an ultra-dry atmosphere and high daily temperatures, which promote evaporation and the formation of salt crystals along the cracks or other openings within stones.These crystals grow as long as salt water is available.Like tree roots breaking up a sidewalk, the growing crystals exert pressure on the rock and eventually pry the rock apart along planes of weakness, such as banding in metamorphic rocks, bedding in sedimentary rocks, or preexisting or incipient fractions, and along boundaries between individual mineral crystals or grains.Besides crystal growth, the expansion of halite crystals(the same as everyday table salt)by heating and of sulfates and similar salts by hydration can contribute additional stresses.A rock durable enough to have withstood natural conditions for a very long time in other areas could probably be shattered into small pieces by salt weathering within a few generations.The dominant salt in Death Valley is halite, or sodium chloride, but other salts, mostly carbonates and sulfates, also cause prying and wedging, as does ordinary ice.Weathering by a variety of salts, though often subtle, is a worldwide phenomenon.Not restricted to arid regions, intense salt weathering occurs mostly in salt-rich places like the seashore, near the large saline lakes in the Dry Valleys of Antarctica, and in desert sections of Australia, New Zealand, and central Asia.41.What is the passage mainly about? A.The destructive effects of salt on rocks.B.The impressive salt rocks in Death Valley.C.The amount of salt produced in Death Valley.D.Thedamaging effects of salt on roads and highways.42.The word “it” in line 9 refers to A.salty water B.groundwater table C.capillary action D.sediment 43.The word “exert” in line 14 is closest in meaning to A.put B.reduce C.replace D.control 44.In lines 13-17, why does the author compare tree roots with growing salt crystals? A.They both force hard surfaces to crack.B.They both grow as long as water is available.C.They both react quickly to a rise in temperature.D.They both cause salty water to rise from the groundwater table.45.In lines 17-18, the author mentions the “expansion of halite crystals...by heating and of sulfates and similar salts by hydration” in order to A.present an alternative theory about crystal growth B.explain how some rocks are not affected by salt C.simplify the explanation of crystal prying and wedging D.introduce additional means by which crystals destroy rocks 46.The word “durable” in line 19 is closest in meaning to rge B.strong C.flexible D.pressured 47.The word “shattered” in line 20 is closest in meaning to A.arranged B.dissolved C.broken apart D.gathered together 48.The word “dominant” in line 22 is closest in meaning to A.most recent B.most common C.least available D.least damaging 49.According to the passage, which of the following is true about the effects of salts on rocks?A.Only two types of salts cause prying and wedging.B.Salts usually cause damage only in combination with ice.C.A variety of salts in all kinds of environments can cause weathering.D.Salt damage at the seashore is more severe than salt damage in Death Valley, 50.Which of the following can be inferred from the passage about rocks that are found in areas where ice is common?A.They are protected from weathering.B.They do not allow capillary action of water.C.They show similar kinds of damage as rocks in Death Valley.D.They contain more carbonates thansulfates.答案CACBC ABBDA DCBAB CCACD BBDCC

Instruments were played individually and during public dances, and there was music for almost every occasion.In public ceremonies singing was combined with dancing and with music from a variety of instruments. The dancers shook rattles or pounded hand - held drums to underscore their foot-beats. Rattles were made of gourds or of turtle shells filled with pebbles or seeds. Drums generally were made by soaking a strip of wood in hot water and bending it into a circle; then the drum skin was tightly strapped over the circle with rawhide laces. While some Plains Indian drums had a single drum skin, as a tambourine has, there were others, such as the drums of the Ute that had skins lashed onto both sides.The whistle and flute were the only Plains Indian wind instruments. Whistles were made from the wing bone of an eagle. the bird that symbolized courage. The recorder-like flutes, with finger holes along the top, were carved from a length of soft, straight - grained wood, like willow or box elder. that was split in half and hollowed out; the halves were rejoined with glue made from boiled hide scrapings and bound together with rawhide lace to make them airt4ght.1.

According to the passage, boiled hide scrapings were used to make(A) finger holes(B) boxes(C) rawhide lace(D) gluePassage 2The American Revolution was not a revolution in the sense of a radical or total change. It was not a sudden and violent overturning of the political and social framework, such aslater occurred in France and Russia, when both were already independent nations.Significant changes were ushered in, but they were not breathtaking. What happened was accelerated evolution rather than outright revolution. During the conflict itself peoplewent on working and praying, marrying arid playing. Most of them were not seriouslydisturbed by the actual fighting, and many of the more isolated communities scarcelyknew that a war was on.America' s War of Independence heralded the birth of three modern nations. One wasCanada. which received its first large influx of English - speaking population from thethousands of loyalists who fled there from the United States. Another was Australia.which became a penal colony now that America was no longer available for prisoners and debtors. The third newcomer-the United States-based itself squarely on republicanprinciples.Yet even he political overturn was not so revolutionary as one might suppose. In some states. notably Connecticut and Rhode island. the war largely ratified a colonial self - rule already existing. British officials, everywhere ousted, were replaced by a home- grown governing class which promptly sought a local substitute for king and Parliament.1. Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?(A) the United States: An Isolated Community(B) B reathtaking Events During the American Revolution(C) C anada and the American War of independence(D) The American Revolution: Evolution Not Revolution2.

What will the paragraph following the passage most probably discuss.(A)The transport of prisoners to Australia(B) The creation of new state governments(C) Events leading up to the American Revolution(E) How Canada and the United States became friendsPassage 3A summary of the physical and chemical nature of life must begin. not on the Earth.but in the Sun. in fact. at the Sun's very center. It is here that is to be found the source ofthe energy that the Sun constantly pours out into space as light and heat. This energy isliberated at the center of the Sun as billions upon billions of nuclei of hydrogen atomscollide with each other and fuse together to form nuclei of helium. and, in doing so.release some of the energy that is stored in the nuclei of atoms. The output of light andheat of the Sun requires that some 600 million tons of hydrogen be converted into heliumin the Sun every second. This the Sun has been doing for several thousands of millions of years.The nuclear energy is released at the Sun's center as high-energy gamma radiation, a form of electromagnetic radiation like light and radio waves, only of very much shorter wavelength. This gamma radiation is absorbed by atoms inside the Sun, to be re-emitted at slightly longer wavelengths. This radiation, in its turn, is absorbed and re-emitted. As the energy filters through the layers of the solar interior, it passes through the x-ray part of the spectrum, eventually becoming light. At this sage, it has reached what we cal: the solar surface, and can escape into space. without being absorbed further by solar atoms. A very small fraction of the Sun' s light and heat is emitted in such directions that, after passing unhindered through inter-planetarv, space, It hits the Earth.1. What does the passage mainly discuss?(A) the production of solar light and heat(B) t he physical and chemical nature of life(C) T he conversion of hydrogen to helium(D)Radiation in the x-ray part of the spectrum2. According to the passage, energy is released in the Sun when(A) helium atoms bind with each other(B) gamma radiation escapes from the spectrum(C) radiation is absorbed by helium(D) nuclei of hydrogen atoms collide3. The passage indicates that, in comparison to radio waves, gamma waves(A) produce louder sound(B) are less magnetic(C) do not form in the Sun's center(D) are not as long4 According to the passage, through which of the following does the energy released in the Sun pass before it becomes light?(A) The x-ray part of the spectrum(B) Electromagnetic space(C) The solar surface(D) interplanetary space5. It can be inferred from the passage that the Sun's light travels(A) through solid objects in space(B) in many different directions(C) more slowly than scientists previously believed(D) further in summer than in winterPassage 4Here in the United States, before agricultural activities destroyed the natural balance,there were great migrations of RockyMountain locusts (Melanoplus spretus). Greatmigrating hordes of these insects once darkened the skies on the plains east of theRockies where crops were often destroyed; the worst years were those from 1874 to1877. One of these migrating swarms was estimated to contain 124 billion locusts.During another migration in Nebraska it was estimated that the swarm of locustsaveraged half a mile high and was 100 miles wide and 300 miles long. Usually,these swarms take oft from the ground against the wind, but, once airborne, they turnand fly with it. warm convection currents help to lift them, often to great heights.During the great locust plagues the situation in Nebraska became so serious that theoriginal state constitution had to be rewritten to take care of the economic problems.The new document was known as "The Grasshopper Constitution." It is nowbelieved that these locusts were a migratory form or phase of the lesser migratorylocust, which is still common there. In this respect, the North American migratorylocusts resemble their African relatives. In both regions the migratory forms arise asa result of crowding and climatic factors. Migratory forms are apparently naturaladaptations which bring about dispersal when locust populations become toocrowded. Fortunately for our farmers the migratory form - - the so-called spretusspecies - - no longer seems to occur regularly, although there was a serious outbreakas late as 1938 in mid-western United States and Canada. Actually, there is noreason why the destructive migratory form might not again appear if circumstancesshould become favorable.1. Which of the following is the best title for the passage?(A) The Life Cycle of Locusts(B) Migratory Locusts in the United States(C) Locust Plagues in Nebraska(D The Reproductive Capability of the Locust2. According to the passage the worst destruction by locusts in the plains area east of theRockies occurred during the(A) eighteenth century(B) e arly nineteenth century(C) late nineteenth century(D) twentieth century3. One of the migrating swarms mentioned in the passage averaged how many miles in length(A) 100(B) 124(C) 187(D) 3004. It can be inferred from the passage that the state constitution of Nebraska was rewritten inorder to(A) make the constitution more understandable to the public(B) encourage farmers to leave the state(C) solve difficulties that resulted from loss of crops(D) provide for a regular census of the locust population5. According the passage, North American and African migratory locusts are similar in that(A) they always travel toward mountainous regions(B) their destructive activities occur only in plains areas(C) climates affect their development(D) they are both mentioned in state constitutions6. Which of the following is NOT mentioned in the passage as influencing the migration oflocusts?A) Darkness(B) Agricultural activities(C) Warm air currents(D) Overcrowding7.

They are made from a variety of materials, such as wax and glass, so skillfully that they can scarcely bedistinguished from natural flowers. In making such models, painstaking skill and artistry are called for, as well as thorough knowledge of plant structure. The collection of glass flowers in the Botanical Museum of Harvard University is the most famous in North America and is widely known throughout the scientific world. In all, there are several thousand models in colored glass, the work of two artist - naturalists, Leopold Blaschka and his son Rudolph.The intention was to have the collection represent at least one member of each flower family native to the United States. Although it was never completed, it contains more than seven hundred species representing 164 families of flowering plants, a group of fruits showing the effect of fungus diseases, and thousands of flower parts and magnified details. Every detail of these is accurately reproduced in color and structure. The models are kept in locked cases as they are too valuable and fragile for classroom use.1. Which of the following is the best title for thepassage.(A)An Extensive Collection of Glass Flowers(B ) The Lives of Leopold and Rudolph Blaschka(C) F lowers Native to the United States.(D) Materials Used For Artificial Flowers2.
