factors.First of all,there is the overwhelming majority of teachers,principals,curriculum planners,school superintendents,who are devoted to passing on the knowledge that childrenneed in order to live in our industrialized society.Their chief concern is with efficiency,thatis,with implanting the greatest number of facts into the greatest possible number ofchildren,with a minimum of time,expense,and effort.Children in the usual classroom learn very quickly that creativity is not rewarded,while repeating a memorized response is,and then concentrate on what the teacher wants them to say,rather than understanding the problem.The difference between the intrinsic(内在的)and the extrinsic aspects of a college education is illustrated by the following story about Upton Sinclair.When Sinclair was a young man,he found that he was unable to raise the tuition money needed to attend college.Upon careful reading of the college catalogue,however,he found that if a student failed a course,he received no credit for the course,but was obliged to take another course in its place.The college did not charge the student for the second course,reasoning that he had already paid once for his credit.Sinclair took advantage of this policy and not a free education by deliberately failing allhis courses.In the ideal college,there would be no credits,no degrees,and no required courses.A person would learn what he wanted to learn.A friend and I attempted to put this ideal into action by starting a serials of seminars at Brandeis called "Freshman Seminars Introduction to the Intellectual Life." In the ideal college,intrinsic education would be available to anyone who just wanted it,and that should be enough - since anyone can improve and learn.The student body might include creative,intelligent children as well as adults;morons as well as geniuses(for even morons can learn emotionally and spiritually).The college would be ubiquitous - thatis,not restricted to particular buildings at particular times,and teachers would be any human beings who had something that they wanted to share with others.The college would be lifelong,for learning can take place all through life.Even dying can be a philosophically illuminating,highly educative experience.The ideal college would be a kind of education retreat in which you could try to find yourself;find out what you like and want;what you are and are not good at.The chief goals of the ideal college,in other words,would be the discovery of identity,and with it,the discovery of vocation.(1)In the author's opinion,the majority of education workers ___ .A.emphasize independent thought rather than well-memorized responsesB.tend to reward children with better understanding rather than with a goal for creditsC.implant children with a lot of facts at the expense of understanding the problemD.are imaginative,creative and efficient in keeping up with our industrialized society(2)An extrinsically oriented education is one that ___ .A.focuses on oriented educationys emphases on earning a degreeC.takes students' need into accountD.emphasizes learning through discussion(3)To enter the author's ideal college,a student ___ .A.will enjoy learning all though his lifeB.should be very intelligent and diligentC.needn't worry about the admission testD.can be best stimulated for creative work(4)The author's purpose of writing the article is ___ .A.to publicize his viewsB.to criticize college studentsC.to stress self-teaching attitudeD.to advocate technological education49.(填空题,6分)Explore some of New Zealand's best skiing & snowboardingfield.Whatever your ability,Cardrona has the snow for you!The 2018 winter season runs from June 16-October 14,2018.Half Day & 1 Day lift passes are split into Peak & Off Peak pricing:Peak-July,August & September Off Peak-June & October*Rocky Mountain Super Pass holders must book lodging with Cardrona to be eligible for free *******************************************************************************& the lift ticket benefit request.What pass am I eligible for?Read our lift pass age definitions below to find out.*Multi passes are valid for both consecutive & non-consecutive days & can be used any time throughout the 2018 winter season at Cardrona only.Your lift pass will be stored on an electronic RFID pass.To make the most of your clever pass,activate your personal profile online.Once you' re logged into your profile you can:•Top up your card with lift passes,rental gear,lift & rental packages and lessons.•Keep track of your on-slope stats at Cardrona(days spent,run count,activities taken,etc.) Definitions for Lift Passes:Student:18+yrs enrolled full time(minimum 32 weeks in a calendar year)with a New Zealand or Australian tertiary institution.Student ID & proof of full time status(letter from institution)is required.ID card must be in English & include a valid expiry date.Child:Currently attending school,6-17 yrs inclusive.Kids under 6 ski for free in winter, &kids under 9 bike for free in summer!Photo ID will be required.Senior:65-74 yrs of age.Photo ID will be required.Under 6 yrs &75 Years+:Under 6 yrs & over 75 yrs,as at June 1,2018,ski for free.Please collect a complimentary lift pass from the ticket office.Photo ID will be required.(1)After activation of your online profile,what can you do to maximize the value of your pass?___A.You can open up the online account of your clever pass.B.You can store your lift pass on an electronic RFID pass.C.You can monitor what activities you have done at Cardrona.D.You can participate in most tutor lessons without any charge.(2)Which of the following statement is true according to the passage?

Innovative teaching means the teacher is the creator,but unfortunately it does not necessarily mean the same for the students.How can educators like Tyler teach students to become betterinnovators themselves?There are some key adjustments to traditional lesson planning that help.Teaching thinking skills explicitly(明确地)is the first one of them.Humans,uniquely,can create models of something that does not yet exist but that one wants to bring into existence.You do not need to use your frontal lobes to make a mental image of a bird,but you do have to use your pre-frontal cortex to think of how to design a way for humans to fly.When we think,we generate new ideas.We innovate.In their daily lives,students are exposed to volumes of stimulation and information and are already thinking naturally to process the world around them,but many of students' assignments ask them to remember information,but not to compare,analyze,or make associations about the topics in the same way they do in their daily lives.To teach innovation,teachers can explicitly teach thinking skills by encouraging students to further think about the declarative knowledge within the lesson's goal.Adapting this approach,a history teacher like Tyler Douglas might plan a lesson about the settlement of the West in the United States.After the traditional lecture about its basic facts,he could teach students to apply the newly acquired declarative knowledge by using analysis.Tyler could then frame the time period as a system and suggest that certain changes,such as relocating the Transcontinental Railroad,would result in different settlement patterns and the potential influence on the current life.This type of thinking task allows students to deepen their understanding of history while generating different insights about historical concepts.Of course,teachers from all disciplines can teach thinking skills.A math teacher can use classifying as a method for 1st graders to learn the differences among shapes;a middle school science teacher can teach students to use analogy to describe the endocrine(内分泌)system like a vending machine;in physics,students can be asked to investigate ways people recover from types of exercise and sports injuries.To think deeply,students should learn to use thinking skills with abundant information about the topics.(1)What is true about teaching innovation according to the passage? ___A.When teachers becomes innovative,students are sure to learn in a more creative way.B.The functions of pre-frontal cortex enable teachers to give lessons on thinking skills directly.C.The main purpose of innovative teaching is to bring in reality some imaginary things.D.Teachers must change their lesson plans in order to deliver an innovative class.(2)What does declarative knowledge(in Para.4&5)probably mean? ___A.The procedures of how particular things can be finished.B.The information about various categories of facts.C.Freshly new ideas about the ways to solve problems.D.A mix of decision-making,problem-solving and reasoning.(3)What is an example of the desired approach to teaching innovation? ___A.Ask students to learn several well written and famous essays by heart.B.Lecture in the basic points of British and American literature history.pare the body immunity to the mechanism of castle defence.D.Urge students to do different kinds of maths questions using one skill.(4)What would the author most probably talk about in the following text? ___A.The difference between declarative knowledge and procedural knowledge.B.Explore the influence of stimulation of frontal cortex on our learning behavior.C.How students access enough information that can lead to deep thinking.D.Why innovative teaching is a must in the current school education system.51.(填空题,8分)There's a loud bang,and then it starts:A battery of an electric car is onfire in the test tunnel.A video of the test impressively shows the energy stored in such batteries:meter-long flames flee in disorder and produce enormous amounts of thick,black smoke.The visibility in the previously brightly lit tunnel section quickly approaches zero.After a few minutes,ashes have spread throughout the room."In our experiment we were considering in particular private and public operators of small and large underground or multi-storey car parks," says project leader Lars Derek Mellert,"all these existing underground structures are being used to an increasing extent by electriccars.And the operators ask themselves:"(1)___ ?" But until now there has been hardly any meaningful technical literature,let alone practical experience for such a case.So Mellert developed three test scenarios(场景),the results of which were published in a final reportin August 2020."(2)___ .Besides,they are possibly fatal regardless of the type of drive or energy storage system." says the final report.The primary objective has to be to get everyone out of the danger zone as quickly as possible.The highly poisonous hydrofluoric(氢氟)acid has often been discussed as a particular danger in burning batteries.(3)___ .The real problem,however,is the extinguishing and cooling water that is produced when fighting such a fire and storing a burnt-out battery in a water basin.The analyses showed that some chemical substances in the extinguishing water goes beyond the limit values for industrial wastewater by a factor of 70;the cooling water is even up to 100-times above limit values.(4)___ .Firefighters know that the battery of an electric car is impossible to extinguish and that it can only be cooled with large amounts of water.But this is already known to the。

appearanceOf all the sensory systems,the visual one is certainly the most complex.Just think that the optic nerve contains a million receptors compared to the acoustic one which contains only 30,000.Visual evaluation begins by observing the wine as it is poured into the glass.The glass should be brought to eye level to evaluate color,transparency and(3)___ .The best way to do this is to tilt(倾斜)the glass against a white background to bring out the color tone.By rotating the glass so that the wine spreads on the walls of the glass,you will observe the arches,also known as 'tears' or

the glass is still,inhaling deeply and quickly and then moving the glass away.Before sniffing again,it is good to swirl the glass in order to release the volatile(易挥发的)substances.The perceived odors are generally grouped into six large families:floral,fruity,vegetable,spicy,different biochemicals.We also try to perceive its intensity and complexity.On the palateThe time has come to taste the wine and understand how to evaluate the wine in the mouth,using the sense of taste.Taste has similar(8)___ mechanisms as the sense of smell,one that operates on molecules dispersed in the air and the other on compounds dissolved or otherwise conveyed by a liquid(9)___ .Both smell and taste reach the areas older than the cerebral cortex(大脑皮层).The wine must be tasted in small quantities and held in the

the consistency or body.31.(填空题,15分)The March on Washington for Jobs and FreedomThe March on Washington brought together many different civil rights groups,labor unions,and(1)___

The steam-powered printing press was still in its infancy;the literacy rate in England was under 50%.And novels,for the most part,were looked upon as silly,immoral,toxic or just plain bad. "No species of composition has been so much decried," wrote one lady of the time,Jane Austen,in Northanger Abbey,a satirical novel that criticizes a sensitive young woman who reads too many gothic novels.In 1870,when Dickens died,the world mourned him as its first literary celebrity:a career writer and publisher,famous and beloved,who had led an explosion in both the publication of novels and their readership and whose characters were held up as moral touchstones.Today Dickens' greatness is unchallenged.Expelling him from the pantheon(名流)of English literature would make about as much sense as the Louvre selling off the Mona Lisa.How did Dickens get to the top?It's partly that Dickens' writing attracted audiences from all walks of life.It's partly that his career rode a wave of social,political and scientific progress.But it's also that he rewrote the culture of literature and put himself at the center.As the 200th anniversary of his birthday approaches,it is possible - and enlightening for our own culture - to understand how he made himself a lasting one.Dickens got into novel writing by accident.As a young man,he longed to be an actor andtrained to be a reporter.In 1836 he accepted a magazine commission to write a series of comic sketches to accompany a set of illustrations of sporting life.The result,The Posthumous Papers of the Pickwick Club,was a sensation.It established Dickens as a peerless ventriloquist(腹语者),able to channel the voices of both celebrities and servants,and as a gifted writer of serials,which became the standard method of publication in an era when books were expensive but cheap periodicals thrived.Most important in terms of his legacy,The Pickwick Papers established him as a financially viable(可存活的)artist,bridging the gap between creativity and commerce.From Pickwick to his deathbed,he wrote for an audience,and he wrote for money - two forces that before his time had had little to do with art. "He invented that form of publicity,an intimacy with his mass readership," says Nicholas Dames,a Victorian scholar. "And he invented merchandising."(Think of A Christmas Carol,which he timed for the holidays.)"All those things that we associate with publishing culture - he was essentially the first." And Dickens knew it.He called himself the Inimitable,a nickname that stuck.(1)Which of the following statements is true of British novels in the 18th century? ___A.They were mostly written by female amateur writers.B.About only half of the Britons had ever read novels.C.They were unpopular partly for technological reasons.D.Most novels were poorly received except satirical ones.(2)Dickens is compared with the "Mona Lisa" in the text to stress ___ .A.the impressive characters he createdB.his great importance in British literatureC.his success in gaining a wide readershipD.the readers' love and admiration for him(3)What's the author's purpose in writing the passage? ___A.To praise Charles Dickens' literary contributions to British literature.B.To introduce Charles Dickens' life experience and his achievements.C.To analyze the growth of novel writing in the UK in the 18th century.D.To explore Charles Dickens' path to becoming a great writer in history.(4)In the author's opinion,Dickens' uniqueness can be best explained by the fact that ___ .A.his works could appeal to readers of different social classesB.he took advantage of the social,political and scientific advancesC.he made writing both profitable and touching to the readersD.he explored both British culture and himself in his writing33.(填空题,6分)THE SHAKESPEARE HOUSESThe five Shakespeare Houses in and around Stratford-upon-Avon offer you an authentic experience of the Stratford world in which the famous dramatist was born,lived anddied.Closely connected with William Shakespeare or his immediate family,these original houses are now owned and eared for by the Shakespeare Birthplace Trust.OPENING TIMESSeptember—May Mon—Sat:10:00 am— 4:00 pm Sunday:10:30 am—4:00 pm June—August Mon—Sat:9:00 am—5:00 pm Sunday:9:30 am—5:00 pmBEST VALUE TICKETSTHE THREE IN-TOWN SHAKESPEARE HOUSESAdult £8.50 Child £4.20 Family £20.00ALL FIVE SHAKESPEARE HOUSESAdult £12.00 Child £6.00 Family £29.00CHILDREN AND STUDENTS TICKETSUnder 5:FreeBetween 5&16:Child rate 17 and over:Adult rate17 and over and in secondary education:Family ticketGROUP VISITSGroups of 20 or more visitors qualify for a 10% discount on ticket prices.For more information telephone 01789 201806 or 201836.SPECIAL VISITSThe Houses are open out of hours by special arrangement.They offer a unique setting for functions,dinners,receptions and other events.For more information telephone 01789 201808.

"Food addiction is not universally recognized by medical professionals,but there are individual practitioners who believe that it is a concept that has utility," says Chevese Turner from the National Eating Disorder Association.Although you can find programs that treat food addiction,trying to get treatment for food addiction could be dangerous because the treatment plan could encourage disordered eating.And to be honest,the "symptoms" of food addiction,according to Food Addicts Anonymous,are a little questionable.Their website asks:"Have you tried different diets or weight loss programs,but none has worked permanently?Do you avoid social interactions because you feel you do not look good enough or do not have the proper fitting clothes?"Many people could answer yes to these questions. "People who have drafted themselves into the anti-fat-person army feel comfortable and justified in judging fat people's food choices," activist Ragen Chastain wrote in her blog. "Whether they are disgracing us for eating something that they don't think we should be eating,or congratulating us for eating something of which they approve,fat people can find ourselves dealing with all kinds of inappropriate interactionsinvolving food."Other symptoms listed by Food Addicts Anonymous sound more legitimate:"Have you found yourself vomiting,using laxatives(泻药)or exercising a lot to avoid a weight gain after you have eaten a lot?" This kind of symptom certainly points to disordered eating,if not food addiction.Perhaps the closest recognized condition to food addiction is binge eating disorder (BED).But BED and food addiction are not the same thing. "Food addiction is defined as causing a preoccupation with foods that provide intense pleasure and dopamine increases like drugs,alcohol,shopping,gambling," Turner says. "While people with BED may feast on highly tasty foods,bingeing is only one part of the behaviors associated with the disorderand,therefore,treatment is complex."Often,people who binge also engage in restrictive behaviors like overexercising and fasting,Turner says people who have BED also tend to have depression,anxiety or other mood disorders.While treatment for food addiction typically calls for avoiding white flour,sugar,and other so-called "addictive" foods,treatment for BED is more involved.BED treatment tries to address underlying issues,including painful experiences and mental health,as well as decrease the urge to binge and restrict food.In treatment for food addiction,restriction typically goes unaddressed.While eating disorder experts agree that some foods are engineered to be as tasty and addictive as possible,many worry that the concept of food addiction could be more harmful than helpful.(1)The researchers' disagreement lies in ___ .A.whether Lay's potato chips are addictiveB.what the public mean by "addictive"C.whether food addiction is medically acceptedD.how much nutrition addictive foods contain(2)What can be inferred from Ragen Chastain's words? ___A.Plus-size people are actually weak-willed food addicts.B.We live in a culture that shames and bullies fat people.C.People in good shape are justified to criticize fat people.D.People of a certain size must interact with food cautiously.(3)The underlined phrase "preoccupation with" is closest in meaning to ___ .A.symptom concerningB.satisfaction fromC.interaction withD.obsession with(4)Why does the treatment for food addiction cause people's concern? ___A.Its neglect of the addicts' restrictive behavior causes harm.B.This treatment is more involved than the treatment for BED.C.The experts underestimate such issues as traumatic experiences.D.The treatment excludes foods engineered to be tasty and addictive.35.(填空题,8分)feet of water,derived from the measurement of a mark combined with "twain",meaning "two." Mark twain is considered the lowest depth for safe water travel. (1)___ The rope is usually twenty-five fathoms long and is marked in increments oftwo,three,five,seven,ten,fifteen,seventeen and twenty fathoms.The process of measuring the water is called "sounding," which was overseen by a leadsman who measures and "sounds out" the depth to the other crew members responsible for sailing or operating the boat in open water.The leadsman would usually stand on a platform,called "the chains" which projected from the ship over the water and "sound" from there.A typical sound would be expressed as "By the mark 7," or whatever the depth was.In modern English language,it is interesting to note that the expression "deep six" refers to this old method of measuring water.In Life on the Mississippi,Twain describes sounding: "(2)___ But in winter the cold and the peril take most of the fun out of it."Today,the mark is measured by sonar equipment,but in Mark Twain's day,it was the common method of ensuring that a boat could safely navigate a body of water without becoming stranded on a sandbar,which were plentiful in the Mississippi River. (3)___Mark Twain is also significant in the literary world as it is the pen name of Samuel Clemens,the author.Legend has it that Twain actually "lifted" the pseudonym from his supervising captain,who often contributed articles to local papers.Regardless of how Mark Twain,the writer,devised the name,it has become synonymous with tales of。

Wondering how many of them actually follow through with it by the end of January each year? Actually, just a meager 8%!Resolutions 46 be very hard to keep for many reasons. Some people find it hard to stay on track. Others make their goals too broad or challenging. Remember resolutions 47 (mean) to be small goals that will become habits over time that will help your life positively, not big life-changing plans.According to , some of the top resolutions made by folks are:*Lose weight *Volunteer to help others *Quit smoking *Get a better education * Get a better job *Save money *Get fit *Eat healthy food *Manage stress *Manage debt *Take a trip *Reduce, Reuse and Recycle Did you notice that resolutions are always 48 making positive changes? We humans recognize that health is the 49 (big) wealth for us all. The resolves to be healthy, eat well and exercise are naturally among the most popular. Yet they are some of the hardest goals to keep.That‟s why you should keep your goals realistic. Cut back on soda 50 50 eliminate it completely. Make notebook entries of what you are aiming for, and track your progress. Write yourself reminders such as : Read for half an hour”, “No more than 125 minutes on social media!”, “don‟t eat too much salt, sugar and fat”, as examples. Take small steps to reach your final goal.Can you challenge yourself to be part of the 45% who make resolutions and grow the number of those who make it stick from 8%? 51 51 you are not the type who makes New Year resolutions, try to practice one healthy eating habit this year. You will be doing 52 a favor, for it is your body after all.BWhy Can’t You Tickle YourselfHave you ever thought about why people are ticklish(怕痒的)?According to scientists, ticklishness is a defense mechanism humans develop against bugs, spiders, and other critters that may be touching our skin. Feeling ticklish is our built-in response to predators or threats, and combines the sensations of touch and pain.The part of the brain that is associated with tickling is the cerebellum(小脑). It monitors our movements,53 ignores movements not perceived as a threat. For example, we do not notice our vocal chords(声带)54 (move) when we speak, but we may jump if someone touches us on 55 shoulder. This selective perception is probably the reason why we cannot tickle ourselves.We only feel ticklish if we detect a sense of invasion or attack. If we try to tickle ourselves, our brains anticipate this “attack” and prevent us from feeling panicked. Strangely enough, eve n if a person knows that they are about 56 (tickle), the fear of being touched may cause the same “ticklish” reaction. Some people laugh even before being tickled.A scientific study was recently done in England to determine whether or not people can tickle themselves. V olunteers 57 (attach) to a brain-scanning device and were tickled on their palms with a piece of soft foam(泡沫). The participants‟ brain scans were monitored while they were being tickled, and when they tickled themselves. It was found that during self-tickling, the cerebellum alerted another area of the brain about 58 to expect, so the ticklish feeling was diminished.Researchers did find a way, however, for people to tickle themselves. When volunteers activated a robot by remote control to tickle them after a short delay, the volunteers felt 5959 someone else were tickling them. It seems that the cerebellum sends a signal to disregard the forthcoming movement, then moves on to other things. Your brain “forgets” that you are tickling yourself---even with a delay as short as 60 fifth of a second. So it is possible to tickle yourself--- but only by remote control. What will science discover next?Section CDirections: Complete the following passage by using the words in the box. Each word can only be used once. Note that there is one word more than you need.Every morning, 21-year-old A.J. Hunter downloads his schedule onto his always-at-hand Macintosh laptop. Hunter is a 61 technical college student. He downloads music to his iPod and 62 social networking sites from his cell phone. He uses e-mail and instant messaging anywhere on the wireless campus.Hunter is a (n) “63 native”--- a term that has been used to describe the first generation who grew up in a world filled with computers, cell phones and cable TV.These young people think, act and react much differently from how their parents and grandparents did, often because their childhoods were in large part 64 by technology, say researchers.“This is so core to their social experience--- to their identities – to what it 65 to be a young person and a student in the new century,” says educational technology expert Richard Katz.But just because young people are 66 with technology, that doesn‟t mean it‟s always beneficial. Some experts worry that technology is 67 over the lives of today‟s youth. When his desktop computer crashed during the first week of classes, “I thought I was going to go mad,”says senior Nick Caine. “I was running to the library every two seconds. I didn‟t even go home because I knew I wouldn‟t have a computer.”There are other negative sides of too much 68 time. A recent study found that nearly 20 percent of students admit that time spent on the Internet and playing computer games resulted in low grades or dropping a class.Technology author Michael Bugeja questions the recent extreme 69 toward technology: “Not only are the students addicted --- the institutions of learning are addicted,” he says. “No one is studying its impact, and we are still 70 as if more access to technology is going to improve learning.”III. Reading Comprehension (15+22+8%)Section ADirections: For each blank in the following passage there are four words or phrases marked A, B, C and D. Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context.When I became an amputee at age 29, I was forced to rethink the idea of physical perfection. My life became different, as I changed from an acceptable attractive woman to an object of pity and 71 .Too busy 72 physical pain and obvious mobility limitation, I was not aware of this change at first. I was determined to 73 , feeling good about the progress I had made, as I moved forward.74 , as I made my first excursion outside the hospital, society had already assigned me a new status. Happy to be free of my restriction in the hospital, I rolled through the shopping mall---a 75 survivor, feeling like a war hero. Unfortunately, I had a rude 76 as I discovered that others did not view me in the way I had come to view myself.All eyes were upon me, yet no one dared to make eye contact. Their efforts to 77 my eyes forced me to realize they saw only my missing legs. Mothers 78 held their children closer as I passed. Elderly women patted me on the head saying, “God Bless You!” with 79 in their eyes.While I sat thinking about what had happened, a small girl came up to me. She stared with unembarrassed 80 at the empty pants. Finding nothing there, she looked up at me with a puzzled look, and she innocently asked, “Lady, where did you legs go?”I explained that my legs had been sick. Since my legs hadn‟t been strong and healthy like hers, the doctors had to 81 them. Leaning her head upwards, she asked, “Did they go to …leg Heaven?‟”That incident made me think about how 82 children and adults react to the unknown. To a child, an odd appearance is an interesting curiosity and a 83 learning experience while adults often view the same thing with fear and horror. I began to realize that, I, too had been 84 of the same inappropriate reactions before I knew what life was like for an amputee.To fulfill the wholeness of my mind and spirit, I now smile warmly, make eye contact, and speak in a confident manner. By using a 85 approach, I attempt to enlighten society about the fact that having a not-so-perfect body doesn‟t mean having a poor quality of life.71. A. comfort B. fear C. hatred D. sadness72. A. crying with B. figuring out C. holding back D. dealing with73. A. endure B. quit C. revenge D. succeed74. A. Instead B. Moreover C. However D. Therefore75. A. clam B. poor C. proud D. rare76.

Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read.(A)The morning had been a disaster. My tooth was aching, and I‟d been in an argument with a friend. Her words still hurt:“The trouble with you is that you won‟t put yourself in my place. Can‟t you see things from my point of view?”I shook my head stubbornly—and felt the ache in my tooth. I‟d thought I could hold out till my dentist came back from holiday, but the pain was really unbearable. I started calling the dentists in the phone book, but no one could see me immediately. Finally, at about lunchtime, I got lucky.“If you come by right now,” the receptionist said, “the dentist will fit you in.”I took my purse and keys and rushed to my car. But suddenly I began to doubt about the dentist. What kind of dentist would be so eager to treat someone at such short notice? Why wasn‟t he as busy as the others?In the dentist‟s office, I sat down and looked around. I saw nothing but the bare walls and I became even more worried. The assistant noticed my nervousness and placed her warm hand over my ice-cold one.When I told her my fears, she laughed and said, “Don‟t worry.The dentist is very good.”“How long do I have to wait for him?” I asked impatiently.“Come on, he is coming. Just lie down and relax. And enjoy the artwork,” the assistant said.“The artwork?” I was puzzled.The chair went back, suddenly I smiled. There was a beautiful picture, right where I could enjoy it: on the ceiling. How considerate the dentist was! At that moment, I began to understand what my friend meant by her words.What a relief!86.Which of the following best describes the author‟s feeling that morning?A. Embarrassed.B. Nervous.C. Dunb.D. Upset.87.What made the author begin to doubt about the dentist?A. The dentist‟s agreeing to treat her at very short notice.B. The dentist‟s being as busy as the other dentists.C. The surroundings of the dentist‟s office.D. The laughing assistant of the dentist.88.Why did the author suddenly smile?A. Because the dentist came at last.B. Because she saw a picture on the ceiling.C. Because she could relax in the chair.D. Because the assistant kept comforting her.89.What did the author learn from her experience most probably?A. Strike while the iron is hot.B. Have a good word for one‟s friend.C. Put oneself in other‟s shoes.D. A friend in need is a friend indeed.( B )Hotel InformationDisneyland Hotel.

IQ Fun Zone helps children below 7 to cultivate their team spirit( C )Stonehenge(巨石阵)may have been a prehistoric health center rather than a site for observing stars or a temple in honor of the dead, scientists said yesterday. New evidence unearthed at the World Heritage Site in more than 40 years suggests that the monument was a place where the diseased and injured went in groups, seeking cures.After a two-week dig, scientists have concluded that Stonehenge was “the ancient healthcare centre of southern England”because of the existence of “bluestones”---the smaller columns of dolerite(辉绿岩)that formed an earlier stone structure.By dating pieces of remains to around 7330 BC, Tim Darvill, of Bournemouth University, and Goff Wainwright, of the Society of Antiquaries have found that hunter-gatherers were at the site on Salisbury Plain 4,000 years earlier than thought. The first stage of Stonehenge, a round earthwork structure, was built around 3000 BC. Professor Wainwright added: “I did not expect the degree of complexity we discovered. We‟re able to say so much more about when Stonehenge was built and why---all of which changes our previous understanding of the monument.”The research reveals the importance of the henge‟s famous bluestones. Hundreds of bluestone chips gathered at the site have led the team to conclude that the bluestones were valued for their curing effects---the key reason that about 80 of them, each weighing up to 4 tons and a half, were dragged more than 150 miles from the Preseli Hills to Wiltshire. After years of research, Professors Darvill and Wainwright have concluded that, for thousands of years, the Preseli mountain range was home to magical health centers and holy wells.Even today there are those who believe in the curing powers of the springs for coughs and heart disease, and people who use crystals and bluestones for self-curing. Radiocarbon tests have also revealed that the construction of the original bluestone circle took place around 2300 BC, three centuries later than originally thought. Interestingly, on the same day died the “Amesbury Archer”---a sick traveler from the Swiss or German Alps who had an infected knee---whose remains were discovered about five miles from Stonehenge. The professors believe that he was a devoted religious person who was hoping to benefit from the curing powers of the monument.93.Stonehenge is recently believed to be a place for people_________________________ .A. to recover from poor healthB. to observe star movementsC. to hold religious ceremoniesD. to gather huge bluestones94.What can be inferred about Stonehenge from the passage?A. The springs could cure coughs and heart disease best.B. The new discovery was the same as what had been expected.C. Some huge bluestones were not produced at Stonehenge.D. The original bluestone circle was thought to be constructed around 2000 BC.95.The sick traveler in the passage is supposed to be_______________________________.A. a devoted religious person from StonehengeB. one of the earliest discoverers of StonehengeC. the first explorer to test the magical power of bluestonesD. a patient trying to cure his infection at Stonehenge96.Which of the following might be the best title for the passage?A. Stonehenge: A New Place of InterestB. Stonehenge: Still Making NewsC. Stonehenge: Heaven for AdventurersD. Stonehenge: Still Curing PatientsSection CDirections: Read the passage carefully. Then answer the questions or complete the statements in the fewest possible words.Being a social butterfly just might change your brain: In people with a large network of friends and excellent social skills, certain brain regions are bigger and better connected than in people with fewer friends, a new study finds.The research suggests a connection between social interactions and brain structure. “We're interested in how your brain is able to allow you to find the right way in complex social environments,”MaryAnn Noonan said, a neuroscientist (神经学家) at Oxford University. Studies in monkeys have shown that brain areas involved in face processing and in predicting the intentions of others are larger in animals living in large social groups than in ones living in smaller groups.To investigate these brain differences in humans, Noonan and her colleagues found 18 participants for a structural brain-imaging study. They asked people how many social interactions they had experienced in the past month, in order to determine the size of their social networks. As was the case in monkeys, some brain areas were enlarged and better connected in people with larger social networks. “These different brain regions are all singing different songs,” Noonan said. “Networked areas are all singing the same song, and when they're connected better, they're singin g more harmoniously with each other.”The researchers also tested whether the size of a person's social network was linked with changes in white-matter pathways, the nerve fibers(纤维) that connect different brain regions. Again, they found that white-matter pathways were better connected in people with bigger social networks. "The nerves were more like a Los Angeles freeway than a country road," Noonan said.The researchers couldn't say whether social interaction caused these changes in brain structure and connectivity, or whether the brain determined how social someone was. In the case of the monkeys, the researchers asked and wrote down the size of the animals' social network, so they concluded that social-group size was causing the brain differences. It can be inferred that a similar process takes place in human brains, but to prove this, long-term studies are needed, Noonan told Live Science.(Note: Answer the questions or complete the statements in NO MORE THAN TEN WORDS.)97.The certain brain regions in people with fewer friends are ______.98.According to Noonan, the certain brain areas whose functions are to _________ are larger inmore-sociable monkeys.99. How did Noonan and her colleagues know about the size of participants‟ social networks?100. According to the researcher‟s findings, what would make the brains of monkeys different?第II卷II.

a fantasy novel about travelling back to the1940sCDear boss—You have always tried to attract young and youngish consumers,and our consultants have always come up with new ways to label them.I don’t need to remind you that“millennials”and,increasingly,“Gen Z”are our most important markets.The trouble is that coming up with rules to define a swathe of humanity is more art than science.It is liable to apply stereotypes.Luckily you have me,and I’m here to tell you that much of what is written about marketing to today’s most prized consumers is a myth.Social media has just changed the ways people discover brands from viewing television,newspapers and magazines to surfing Instagram and TikTok;it has weakened the power of marketing as a whole.Such is the ease with which digital natives can fact-check our tricky marketing claims that it is getting harder to build brand loyalty. Online,communication is cheap and prices are readily Googled.There is a similar temptation to think that physical shops no longer matter.Young consumers love their Amazon deliveries.But what works best is the seamless combination of the digital and physical worlds.Remember those online-only influencer-backed beauty brands like Glossier,which took the world by storm during the pandemic?It turns out that they struggle to get repeat business and have had to pair up with physical retailers.If we want to succeed,we need to offer the best of both physical and virtual worlds.Gen Z will consider a brand’s sustainability and social impact,but considering something isn’t surrendering to it.They are never brand-slaved.It is chiefly youngsters who buy cheap“fast-fashion”outfits to wear once and then send to landfill.Also,youngsters care less for consumer boycotts than its virtue-signaling parents,thus open to various brands.No wonder,most brands originate from youngsters with duel identities of producers and consumers.What determines the shopping mode of a generation is their mindset.In Gen Z,lies are easily exposed online, where everyone loves a takedown and hates hypocrisy.We are people just as our young customers are and people will always buy sincerity.68.What is the article primarily warning readers against in marketing?A.The excessive use of digital advertising and ignoring traditional media.1.B【详解】考查定语从句。

By definition, heroes and heroines are men and women distinguished by uncommon courage, achievements, and self-sacrifice made most for the benefits of others - they are people against whom we measure others. They are men and women recognized for shaping our nation's consciousness and development as well as the lives of those who admire them. Yet, some people say that ours is an age where true heroes and heroines are hard to come by, where the very idea of heroism is something beyond us - an artifact of the past. Some maintain, that because the Cold War is over and because America is at peace, our age is essentially an unheroic one. Furthermore, the overall crime rate is down, poverty has been eased by a strong and growing economy, and advances continue to be made in medical science.Cultural icons are hard to define, but we know them when we see them. They are people who manage to go beyond celebrity (明星), who are legendary, who somehow mange to become mythic. But what makes some figures icons and others mere celebrities? That's hard to answer. In part, their lives have the quality of a story to tell. For instance, the beautiful young Diana Spencer who at 19 married a prince, renounced marriage and the throne, and died at the moment she found true love. Good looks certainly help. So does a special indefinable charm, with the help of the media. But nothing confirms an icon more than a tragic death - such as Martin Luther King, Jr., John F. Kennedy, and Princess Diana.1.

The residents of 24 Acacia Grove were dissatisfied with the condition of the property, so John Preston called a meeting to discuss things last week. At the meeting John suggested setting up a residents’ committee. Everyone was so worried and angry about the agent’s inactivity t hat they agreed, and they elected John as chairman of the committee. Many residents said that they were tired of telephoning the agent and tired of complaining about the flats. Although the agent was responsible for the flats, they thought that he didn’t d o enough. Therefore John was asked to write to the agent and say that they were disappointed with the management of the flats.The next service payment was due at the end of the month. However, they agreed not to pay it until they were happy with the plans to improve the property. They decided to tell the agent that he must start the work within one month. They all went away very pleased with themselves.1. Why did John Preston call a meeting last week? BA. Because the residents were dissatisfied with the present residents’ committee.B.

Shy people are anxious and self-conscious; that is, they are excessively concerned with their own appearance and actions. Worrisome thoughts are constantly occurring in their minds: What kind of impression am I making? Do they like me? Do I sound stupid? Am I wearing unattractive clothes?It is obvious that such uncomfortable feeling must negativel y affect people. A person’s conception of himself or herself is reflected in the way he or she behaves, and the way a person behaves affects other people’s reactions. In general, the way people think about themselves has a profound effect on all areas of tShy people, having low self-esteem, are likely to be passive and easily influenced by others. They need reassurance that they are doing “the right thing.” Shy people are very sensitive to criticism: they feel it confirms their feelings of infe riority. They also find it difficult to be pleased by compliment with a statement like this one: “You’re just saying that to make me feel good. I know it’s not true.” It is clear that, while self-awareness is a healthy quality, overdoing it isCan shyness be completely eliminated, or at least reduced? Fortunately, people can overcome shyness with determined and patient efforts in building self-confidence. Since shyness goes hand in hand with a lack of self-esteem, it is important for people to accept their weakness as well as their strengths.Each one of us is a unique, worthwhile individual, interested in our own personal ways. The better we understand ourselves, the easier it becomes to live up to our full potential. Let’s not allow shyness to b lock our chances for a rich and fulfilling life.1. What does the author try to prove by citing “what kind of impression am I making?” in Para.1? BA. Shy people benefit from their caring about their appearance.B. People’s shyness made them care too mu ch about their appearance and actions.C. It’s natural that shy people don’t believe other’s compliments.2. According to the writer, self-awareness is ___C____.A. a weak pointy of shy peopleB. the cause of unhappinessC. harmful to peopleD. a good quality3. That shy people react to a compliment in such a way is _____C___.A. goodB. unrealC. harmfulD. very reasonable4. Which of the following statements is true according to the passage? AA. Shyness can block our chances for a rich life.B. Shyness enabC. Shyness helps us to develop our potential.D. Shyness has nothing to do with lack of self-5. It can be inferred from the passage that shy people____DA. should find more of their weaknessB. can get rid of their shyness while maintaining low self-esteemC. had better ignore their weaknessD. should understand themselves in the right way4. How men first learnt to invent words is unknown; in other words, the origin of language is a mystery. All we really know is that men, unlike animals, somehow invented certain sounds to express thought and feelings, actions and things, so that they could communicate with each other; and that later they agreed upon certain signs, called letters, which could be combined to present those sounds, and which could be written down. Those sounds, whether spoken or written in letters, we call words.The power of words, then, lies in their associations - the things they bring up before our minds. Words become filled with meaning for us by experience; and the longer we live, the more certain words recall to us the glad and sad events of our past; and the more we read and learn, the more the number of words that mean something increases.Great writers are those who not only have great thoughts but also express these thoughts in words which appeal powerfully to our minds and emotions. This charming and telling use of words is what we call literary style. Above all, the real poet is a master of words. He can convey his meaning in words which sing like music and which by their position and association can move men to tears. We should therefore learn to choose our words carefully and use them accurately, or they will make our speech silly and vulgar.1. The origin of language is ___D______.A. a legend handed down from the pastB. a matter that is hidden or secretC. a question difficult to answerD. a problem not yet solved2. What is true about words? CA. They are used to express feelings only.B. They can not be written down.C. They are simply sounds.D. They are mysterious.3. The real power of words consists in their ___D___.A. propertiesB. characteristicsC. peculiarityD. representative function4. By “association” in the last paragraph, the author means __B____.A. a special qualityB. a joining of ideas in the mindC. an appearance which is puzzlingD. a strange feature5. Which of the following statements about the real poet is NOT true? AA. He is no more than a master of words.B. He can convey his ideas in words which sing like music.C. He can move men to tears.D. His style is always charming.5、There are three kinds of goals: short-term, medium-range and long-term goals.Short-term goals are those that usually deal with current activities, which we can apply on a daily basis. Such goals can be achieved in a week or less, or two weeks, or possibly, months. It should be remembered that just as a building is no stronger than its foundation, long-term goals cannot amount to very munch without the achievement of solid short-term goals. Upon completing our short-term goals, we should date the occasion and then add new short-term goals that will build on those that have been completed.The intermediate goals build on the foundation of the short-term goals. They might deal with just one term ofschool or the entire school year, or they could even extend for several years. Any time you move a step at a time, you should never allow yourself to become discouraged or overwhelmed. As you complete each step, you will enforce the belief in your ability to grow and succeed. And as your list of completion dates grow, your motivation and desire will increase.Long-term goals may be related to our dreams of the future. They might cover five years or more. Life is not a static thing. We should never allow a long-term goal to limit us or our course of action.1. Our long-term goals mean a lot ___B____.A. if we cannot reach solid short-term goalsB. if we complete the short-term goalsC. if we have dreams of the futureD. if we put forward some plans2. New short-term goals are built upon__D____.A. a daily basisB. your achievement in a weekC. current activitiesD. the goals that have been completed3. When we complete each step of our goals, ___C_____.A. we will win final successB. we are overwhelmedC. we will build up our confidence to achieve successD. we should have strong desire for setting new goals4. What is the main idea of this passage? ___C____A. Life is a dynamic thing.B. We should set up long-term goals.C. Different kinds of goals in life.D. The limitation of long-term goals.5. Which of the following statements is wrong according to the passage? ____C___A. The long-term goals cannot amount to very much without achieving short-term goals.B. The intermediate goals build on the foundation of the short-term goals.C. Life is a static thing, thus never allowing a long-term goal to limit us.D. We should often add new short-term goals to what have been completed.6. Many people who work in London prefer to live outside it, and to go in to their offices or schools every day by train, car or bus, even though this means they have to get up early in the morning and reach home late in the evening. One advantage of living outside London is that houses are cheaper. Even a small flat in London without a garden costs quite a lot to rent. With the same money, one can get a little house in the country with a garden of one’s own.Then, in the country one can really get away from the noise and hurry of busy working lives. Even though one has to get up earlier and spend more time in trains or buses, one can sleep better at night and during weekends and on summer evenings, one can enjoy the fresh, clean air of the country. If one likes gardens, one can spend one’s free time digging, planting, watering and doing the hundred and one other jobs which are needed in a garden. Then, when the flowers and vegetables come up, one has the reward of one who has shared the secrets of Nature.Some people, however, take no interest in country things: for them, happiness lies in the town, with its cinemas and theatres, beautiful shops and busy streets, dance halls and restaurants. Such people would feel that their life was not worth living if they had to live it outside London. An occasional walk in one of the parks and a fortnight’s (two weeks) visit to the sea every summer is all the country they want: the rest they are quite prepared to leave to those who are glad to get away from London every night.1. Which of the following statements is NOT true? BA. People who love Nature prefer to live outside the city.B. All the people who work in London prefer to live in the country.C. Some people enjoying city life prefer to work and live inside London.D. Many nature lovers, though working in London, prefer to live outside London.2. With the same money needed for ____C___, one can buy a little house with a garden in the country.A. getting a small flat with a gardenB. having a small flat with a gardenC. renting a small flat without a gardenD. buying a small flat without a garden3. When the garden is in blossom, the one __B____ has been rewarded.A. living in the countryB. having spent time working in the gardenC. having a garden of his ownD. having been digging, planting and watering4. People who think happiness lies in the town would feel that_____A___ if they had to live it outside London.A. their life was meaninglessB. their life was invaluableC. they didn’t deserve a happy lifeD. they were not worthy of their happy life5. The underlined phrase get away from in the 3rd paragraph refers to C .A. deal withB. do away withC. escape fromD. prevent from7. What makes a person a scientist? Does he have ways or tools of learning that are different from those of others? The answer is “no”. It is not the tools a scientist uses but how he uses these t ools that makes him a scientist. You will probably agree that knowing how to use a power is important to a carpenter. You will probably agree, too, that knowing how to investigate, how to discover information, is important to everyone. The scientist, however, goes one step further. He must be sure that he has a reasonable answer to his questions and that his answer can be confirmed by other persons. He also works to fit the answers he gets to many questions into a large set of ideas about how the world works.The scientist’s knowledge must be exact. There is no room for half right or right just half the time. He must be as nearly right as the conditions permit. What works under one set of conditions at one time must work under the same conditions at other times. If the conditions are different, any changes the scientist observes in a demonstration must be explained by the changes in the conditions. This is one reason that investigations are important in science. Albert Einstein, who developed the theory of relativity, arrived at this theory through mathematics. The accuracy of his mathematics was later tested through investigations, Einstein’s ideas were shown to be correct. A scientist uses many tools for measurements. Then the measurements are used to make mathematical calculations that may test his investigations.1. What makes a scientist according to the passage? BA. The tools he uses.B. The way he uses his tools.C. His ways of learning.D. The various tools he uses.2. “The scientist, however, goes one step further…”. The author says this to show _____C_______.A. the important of informationB. the importance of thinkingC. the difference between scientists and ordinary peopleD. the difference between carpenters and people with other jobs.3. A sound scientific theory should be one that ________A___________.A. works not only under one set of conditions at one time, but also under the same conditions at other timesB. does not allow any changes even under different conditionsC. can be used for many purposesD. leave no room for improvement4. The author quotes the case of Albert Einstein to illustrate _____C_________.A. that measurements are keys to success in scienceB. that accuracy of mathematicsC. that the investigations are important in scienceD. that the mathematical calculations may test his investigations5. What is the main idea of the passage? DA. The theory of relativity.B. Exactness is the core of science.C. Scientists are different form ordinary people.D. Exactness and ways of using tools are the keys to the making of a scientist.8. In the United States, it is not customary to telephone someone very early in the morning. If you telephone him early in the day, while he is shaving or having breakfast, the time of the call shows that the matter is very important and requires immediate attention. The same meaning is attached to telephone calls made after 11:00 p.m. If someone receives a call during sleeping hours, he assumes it's a matter of life or death. The time chosen for the call communicates its importance.In social life, time plays a very important part. In the U.S.A. guests tend to feel they are not highly regarded if the invitation to a dinner party is extended only three or four days before the party date. But it is not true in all countries. In other areas of the world, it may be considered foolish to make an appointment too far in advance because plans which are made for a date more than a week away tend to be forgotten. The meaning of time differs in different parts of the world. Thus, misunderstandings arise between people from cultures that treat time differently. Promptness is valued highly in American life, for example. If people are not prompt, they may be regarded as impolite or not fully responsible. In the U.S. no one would think of keeping a business associate waiting for an hour, it would be too impolite. A person who is 5 minutes late, he will say a few words of explanation, though perhaps he will not complete the sentence.1. What is the main idea of this passage? BA. It is not customary to telephone someone in the morning and in sleeping hours in the U.S.B. The role of time in social life over the world.C. If people are not prompt, they may be regarded as impolite or not fully responsible in the U.S.D. Not every country treats the concept of time as the same.2. What does it mean in the passage if you call someone during his or her sleeping hours? BA. A matter of work.B. A matter of life or death.C. You want to see him or her.D. You want to make an appointment with him or her.3. Which of the following time is proper if you want to make an appointment with your friend? BA. at 7:00 amB. at 4:00 pmC. at the nightD. at 4:00 am4. Which of the following statement is true according to the passage? DA. In the U.S.A. guests tend to feel they are highly regarded if the invitation to a dinner party is extended only three or four days before the party date.B. There is no misunderstanding arising between people form different cultures about the concept of time.C. It may be considered foolish to make an appointment well in advance in the U.S.A.D. Promptness is valued highly in American life.5. From the passage we can safely infer that _______B_________A. it’s a matter of life or death if you call someone in the day time.B. the meaning of time differs in different parts of the world.C. it makes no difference in the U.S. whether you are early or late for a business party.D. if a person is late for a da te, he needn’t make some explanation.第三部分词汇与结构(来自课堂讲解例句,课后练习及统考题库)1、I won’t make the ___B____ mistake next time.A. likeB. sameC. nearD. similar2、- ____B___ is your girl friend like?- She is very kind and good-looking.A.

Reading Comprehension (3篇)Passage 1Size is not a standard in our definition of what consists of a country. A country need only be an independent state, with clear territorial lines, and its own government. This is a true benefit for Vatican City as it holds the title of being the smallest country in the world.Before 1870, however, political control by papal governments in central Italy spread for about 1600 square miles. In 1870, in a shift of political power, the Kingdom of Italy established Rome as the national capital, took political power from the papal governments, and absorbed the "Papal States" into its territory.A 1929 Agreement reached by the Italian government and the Pope established Vatican City as a country. All 0.17 square miles of it! Gradually the country has gained recognition by establishing political ties with other countries.Vatican City is the official location of the Catholic Church, and its head, the Pope, rules through a governor. This small-scale country has its own flag, coins its own coins, runs its own postal, transportation, telephone systems, and radio station.This country primarily supports itself through contributions from Catholics around the world, and through tourism. Safely placed within Vatican City lie some of the worlds' most valuable of riches: the Gardens, St. Peter's Basilica, and the Vatican Palace, which houses the Vatican Library, and the Pope himself.1. What's special about Vatican City?页脚内容4A. It's regarded as the most beautiful country in the world.B. It's the location of the United Nations.C. It has a variety of nationalities.D. It is the smallest country in the world.2. The "Papal States" was absorbed into the territory of the Kingdom of Italy___________.A. in 1870B. in 1929C. before 1870D. in 1870s3. Which of the following statements is TRUE?A. Vatican City only has 1.7 square miles.B. The head of Vatican City is the Pope, who rules by himself.C. Vatican City can coin its own coins and run its own postal systems.D. As soon as Vatican City was established it gained recognition by other countries.4. Vatican City primarily supports itself through___________.A. tourismB. contributions from Catholics页脚内容5C. taxD. both A and B5. The Pope usually stay at___________.A. the Vatican PalaceB. St. Peter's BasilicaC. the GardensD. the Pope's officePassage 2If we were asked exactly what we were doing a year ago, we should probably have to say that we could not remember. But if we had kept a book and had written in it an account of what we did each day, we should be able to give an answer to the question.It is the same in history. Many things have been forgotten because we do not have any written account of them. Sometimes men did keep a record of the most important happenings in their country, but often it was destroyed by fire or in a war. Sometimes there was never any written record at all because the people of that time and place did not know how to write. For example, we know a good deal about the people who lived in China 4,000 years ago, because they could write and leave written records for those who lived after them. But we know almost nothing about the people who lived even 200 years ago in central Africa, because they had not learned to write.Sometimes, of course, even if the people cannot write, they may know something of the past. They have heard about it from older people, and often songs and dances and stories have been页脚内容6made about the most important happenings, and these have been sung and acted and told for many generations. For most people are proud to tell what their fathers did in the past. This we may call ‘remembered history'. Some of it has now been written down. It is not so exact or so valuable to us as written history is, because words are much more easily changed when used again and again in speech than when copied in writing. But where there are no written records, such spoken stories are often very helpful.1. Which of the following ideas is not suggested in the passage?A. "Remembered history", compared with written history, is less reliable.B. Written records of the past play the most important role in our learning of the human history.C. A written account of our daily activities helps us to be able to answer many questions.D. Where there are no written records, there is no history.2. We know very little about the central Africa 200 years ago because ___.A. there was nothing worth being written down at that timeB. the people there ignored the importance of keeping a recordC. the written records were perhaps destroyed by a fireD. the people there did not know how to write3. "Remembered history" refers to ___.A. history based on a person's imagination页脚内容7B. stories of important happenings passed down from mouth to mouthC. songs and dances about the most important eventsD. both B and C4. "Remembered history" is regarded as valuable only when ___.A. it is written downB. no written account is availableC. it proves to be trueD. people are interested in it5. The passage suggests that we could have learned much more about our past than we do now if the ancient people had ___.A. kept a written record of every past eventB. not burnt their written records in warsC. told exact stories of the most important happeningsD. made more songs and dancesPart IV. Cloze(1篇)The amount of usable water has always been of great interest in the world. Owning springs and streams sometimes means control, 1 in the dry areas like the desert.
