Buried with him were the tools of a hunter or warrior. There was a bone pin that may have been from a piece of clothing such as a leather coat. He carried a copper knife on his breast. The most amazing find was two gold earrings. That would have made him a man of distinction. Only a few centimeters from his head were two pots made of clay, tools and materials to make arrows, a bow and a dozen arrows for hunting and a second, smaller copper knife. Next to them lay a cushion stone, upon which the man could work metal.His grave is the richest of any found from that period, because this man was buried with two gold earrings which are the oldest gold ever found in Britain (dated to 2470 BC). Besides, he was buried three miles from Stonehenge. Archaeologists tend to believe he was a member of a powerful class who might have organized the construction of Stonehenge.Stonehenge was begun around 3000 BC. In about 2300 BC the huge stone circles were built. The biggest stone weighed approximately 20 tons. But the smaller blue stones, still weighing 4 tons on average, came from west Wales. It is not yet known how these were conveyed over a distance of 380 km. It is also a mystery how early man was able to construct Stonehenge without the use of modern construction machines and lorries.He is an example of people who brought culture and new techniques from the European mainland to Britain. In terms of technical development people were going from the Stone Age to the Bronze Age and then to the Iron Age.36. Which are not included in the things that are found in the grave of a man'?A. Tools, a bone pin, a bow and a cushion stoneB. A copper knife and two gold earrings.C. Two pots, arrows and materials to make arrows.D. some chicken and grains.37. The man buried in the grave might be ______ at that time.A. A poor manB. a kind-hearted manC. a rich manD. an ordinary man38. Why is the man buried in the grave called the "king of Stonehenge" ?A. He was buried three miles from Stonehenge.B. He had the oldest gold ever found in Britain.C. He might be a member of a powerful class who might have organized the construction of Stonehenge.D. All of the above.39. What does the third paragraph mainly talk about?A. How Stonehenge was built.B. Building Stonehenge was hard.C. Stonehenge was made of big stones.D. It is a mystery how Stonehenge was built.40. We can infer that _______ .A. how Stonehenge was builtB. the King of Stonehenge was from FranceC. Stonehenge was built through several agesD. Stonehenge was built because of warBTHREATS TOOUR NATIONAL TREASURESJ: journalist X: Prof XuJ: People have always had interests in the past. Professor Xu, what are the most important dangers to our archaeological treasures?X: They get damaged or lost. It's a matter of education. People fail to take the right steps when something is found. Fortunately, the government has helped spreading the basic knowledge among the population, telling what is to be done when an archaeological find is made.J: What does that knowledge consist of ?X: Well, when something is found, construction work must be stopped and the police should be told about the find. That is to make sure that no further damage will be done.J: Does it still happen that people do not report things they find?X: Yes, indeed. They doubt whether it is necessary to do so. It sometimes happens that a find is not very valuable. They are afraid that they would make scientists come for nothing.J: Are there other reasons why people don't report their finds?X: Oh, yes. People are afraid that archaeologists may take a real interest in the site and spend many weeks or months digging around at it. That would result in farmers missing the right opportunity to plant crops or construction work to be stopped for a long time. They don't realize that they should not weigh their own business interests against our national history.J: If it is so important to dig things up and collect them, then why are archaeologists worried that other people dig up artifacts and givethem to museums or add them to their own private archaeological collections?X: Archaeology is a professional discipline. Years of training and experience are needed. It is not just about finding things and digging them up. The field work must be done very carefully. Of every find there needs to be a written record, to which a photograph must be added. The records must also state exactly what was found, where it was found and when. The outdoor work is followed by work in the lab, cleaning, restoring and identifying each artifact. Finally, when all is done, an analysis must be written and published in a magazine or a book.J: Are there any other dangers, natural disasters perhaps?X: Unfortunately there are treasure hunters: people search for valuable objects, especially jewellery and gold. They are the worst. History does not need to fear nature very much. What has been buried has often been buried well. It is often human digging that causes the loss of valuable materials. It may seem a contradiction, but leaving things as they are would often be the best way of keeping things for the generations to come.41. The interview is probably a conversation betweenA. Mr Xu and his wifeB. a student and a teacherC. a teacher and a newspaper reporterD. a professor and a farmer42. According to Professor Xu, there are ______ why people do not report finds.A. no reasonsB. certain threatsC. few dangersD. several reasons43. The reason why some people do not inform the police about archaeological finds is that ______ .A. they are afraid of the policeB. the government has failed to inform the publicC. they think working archaeologists will cause troubleD. they don't have the years of training and experience that are needed44. For most artifacts ______ can quite easily see whether they are valuable or not.A. farmersB. the policeC. construction workersD. local experts45. In the opinion of Professor Xu, the greatest danger to our archaeological treasures are ______ .A. natural disastersB. farmers and construction workersC. scientistsD. treasure huntersC篇章结构A mental health researcher who has studied depressed mothers in Pakistan plans an effort next year to help them. Doctor Atif Rahman is in the Department of Child Psychiatry (精神病治疗法) at Royal Manchester Children's Hospital in England.Doctor Rahman led a team that linked depression (沮丧；消沉) in women with lower weight in their babies during the first year of life. 46The study identified one hundred and sixty of the women, or one in four, as depressed. They had lost interest and pleasure in normal life. They always felt sad or tired. They had problems eating or sleeping. They felt guilty and thought about killing themselves.47 Re-examinations took place at two, six and twelve months of age. The health workers also re-examined the mental health of the mothers.Babies whose mothers remained depressed grew less than the babies of the other women. The babies of the depressed mothers were also more likely to get sick with diarrhea (腹泻). The findings appeared in September in Archives of General Psychiatry(精神病学档案). 48 Other studies in South Asia have found that depression affects almost twice as many women in developing countries.Conditions in poor countries can make it more difficult to care for a baby. Doctor Rahman says depression can make it even more difficult for a mother to do things such as boil water to kill harmful organisms (微生物).49 These women visit new mothers for up to a year. The workers offer advice about things like health and cleanliness.50 The program will be tested for three years to see how well it succeeds.A. Now Doctor Rahman wants to add special support for depressed mothers. The idea is that the health worker will listen to the mother's problems and suggest some easy things at first that she can do for her baby.B. Earlier studies showed that ten to fifteen percent of pregnant women and new mothers in Western nations suffer from depression.C. For ten years, Pakistan has employed what are called "lady health .workers".D. The team studied six hundred and thirty-two women from small villages in Rawalpindi. The women were in good physical health and in the last three months of pregnancy.E. The researchers compared these women with one hundred and sixty others who were not depressed. Health workers then weighed and measured the babies of both groups at birth.F. The study showed that depression in women had nothing with lower weight in their babies.IV.

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．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.39．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 patients 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 emergency situations.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.40．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 system41．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 professionals42．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 areas43．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 trips to 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 intoeach 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.44．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.45．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 trip46．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 jewelryand 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 block 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 lik e 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 like hearing 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.”47．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.48．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.49．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.50．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.阅读填句(共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分)In order to help children learn to use an English dictionary，you'll obviously need to have one on hand for them to view.51.________ It is used to give the meaning and the usage of any given word in English.52.________ If it has not yet been introduced to the children，they need to learn it so that they can use the English dictionary

dictionary，ask them to choose a few more words，and guide them as they look each one up themselves.A．Check if the children are familiar with the alphabet(字母表)．B．Begin with explaining what an English

children have learned some new words with the dictionary.F．You need to show them how the dictionary explains the meaning of the word.G．When the children have well mastered the alphabet，simply show
