It delighted （使高兴）people all over Europe and beat nearly everyone it played, including famous figures like French leader Napoleon Bonaparte, and scientist and inventor Benjamin Franklin. For decades, many people believed that it was truly a thinking machine. There were people who said it was a hoax, but could not prove it or explain how it worked. About 85 years later, the secret was finally revealed. There was a man hiding inside the machine all the time……who was obviously very good at playing chess!ZOO ESCAPE （逃脱逃脱））On November 9, 1874, New York newspaper, The Herald , ran a shocking story on its front page. It said that all the animals in the Central Park Zoo had escaped and were running around the city. It said the police were working to save people, but 27 people had already been killed, and 200 people hurt. It warned everyone to stay at home to avoid the danger. Many people in New York were terrified, and did as the paper said. If only they had read the final words of the article, which said: “Not one word of it is true. Not a single act described has taken place,” It was all just a hoax. The story was made up by Thomas Connery, an editor at The Herald , who wanted to draw attention to the poor condition of cages in the zoo.ROSIE THE RUNNERThe first woman to cross the finish line of the 1980 Boston Marathon （马拉松）was 23-year-old Rosie Ruiz. However, as she climbed the stairs to receive her prize, people started to become suspicious （怀疑的). She didn’t seem to be tired at all. Furthermore, none of the other runners remembered seeing her, and her picture never appeared in photos or TV broadcasts of the race. Later, several people said that they had seen her join the race only at the end. It turned out she had run only half a mile (about 805 meters) and taken the train for the rest of the race!Her prize was taken away, of course.42. The underlined word “it” in Paragraph 1 refers to（指）________.A. the hoaxB. the newsC. the thinking machineD. the computer43. Which of the following is mentioned in the passage?A. The thinking machine used a computer to win games.B. 200 people were killed by zoo animals in 1874.C. Rosie Ruiz wasn’t tired at the finish line.D.

She was sitting high with her eyes closed，skin still wet from the shower and her messy hair behind her back. I realized she was taking_in every touch from my hands. Today we would send Kitty away for a week of a summer camp. This was all my idea. She's nearly 12，and I notice that I'm with my child nearly 24 hours a day.

Being short of space is a common problem for university libraries in China.However，this is not the only reason why students dislike their libraries being open to members of the public. They fear that the quietness of the libraries will be influenced because of visitors' rude behavior.Chen Jie,18，a student in Tongji University，is one who would be against opening to the public. “I have been to a public library before. People were chatting loudly or speaking on cell phone so you can hardly read，”Chen said. She notices teachers doing serious reading and feels theirconcentration(专注) has influenced her. “If too many strangers stay here，the whole library will be a noisy place and it's difficult for us to study quietly.” she said.Will there be alternative(可替代的) ways to share those libraries? Some experts consider that university libraries can stop the public from entering certain areas. “We might keep magazines for academic research only for teachers and students，”said Zhu Lina，library director in Jinan University.Working together with the community library is another solution(解决方法). “It's possible that a member of the public can order a book in our library over the Internet.” Ge Jianxiong，the library director in Fudan University said. “We'll send it to a public library close to their home.”1. We can see from the passage the Wang Ling ________.A. hates to study in the libraryB. prefers sightseeing to readingC. feels good to play with kidsD. is a university student aged 212. In Chen Jie's opinion，visitors to university libraries may ________.A. take up too much spaceB. break the peace thereC. make teachers relaxedD. get students to read more3. The writer quotes(引用) two library directors' words to help explain how to ________.A. manage libraries onlineB. keep the public politeC. do scientific researchD. share university libraries4.

But why choose these 100 objects to tell stories of our world's history?It all started with a challenge(挑战)．Neil MacGregor，who was once director of the British Museum，was asked by BBC to choose 100 objects from the museum's huge collection. The objects had to include things from the beginning of human history about 2 million years ago to the present day.MacGregor accepted，and took four years to choose each object himself.In 2010，MacGregor appeared on BBC radio，giving a detailed(详细的) explanation of each object. The show was a big hit and all these 100 objects were shown in the British Museum. A book with photos of each object soon followed.“The objects had to cover the whole world，from a cooking pot to a golden galleon，from a Stone Age tool to a credit card.” MacGregor wrote.The collection includes many important objects from China. There is a banknote from the Ming Dynasty，showing China as the first country to use paper money.But it's not just ancient things that are shown. Among them are some modern things like a solar-powered lamp and even a throne made of weapons created by an African artist.“Of course，the_collection_could_only_be‘a’history_of_the_world. But it is still a history that people in the present world need to know.” MacGregor wrote.1. “A history of the world in 100 objects” is a(n)________．A.

The fact is that they aren't.Some statistics(数据) from the survey done by the European Commission(欧盟委员会) showed that 62% of the British people only speak English. 38% speak at least one foreign language and 18% speak two or more. Compared with the British people,56% of the people in other European countries speak at least one foreign language and 28% speak two or more. From this you can see that the British people are famous for not speaking foreign languages and that they are not good language learners in Europe.And the survey also showed that English is the most widely-spoken foreign language. Many European people can have a conversation in English. That's why my people don't think it is necessary to learn a foreign language.In Britain，students are not required to learn a foreign language. That means learning a foreign language is only an option at school. In UK schools it is common for children to start learning a foreign language at 11 and many of them give it up at 14. So why don't students continue learning foreign languages at school? Because they think it is more difficult to get good marks in languages than in other subjects such as science or history.To solve this situation，the British government is looking for different ways to improve language learning at school. One way is to start learning it at a much younger age. Another one is to give school children more choices.Changing the British attitude(态度) to learning foreign languages may be a hard task but the government decides to try!1.

Being short of space is a common problem for university libraries in China.However ， this is not the only reason why students dislike their libraries being open to members of the public. They fear that the quietness of the libraries will be influenced because of visitors' rude behavior.Chen Jie,18，a student in Tongji University ，is one who would be against opening to the public.“ I have been to a public library before.

But why choosethese 100 objects to tell stories of our world's history?It all started with a challenge( 挑战 )．Neil MacGregor ，who was once director of the British Museum ，was asked by BBC to choose 100 objects from the museum's huge collection. The objects had to include things from the beginning of human history about 2 million years ago to the present day.MacGregor accepted ， and took four years to choose each object himself.In 2010 ， MacGregor appeared on BBC radio ，giving a detailed( 详尽的 ) explanation of each object.

The fact is that they aren't.Some statistics(数据 ) from the survey done by the European Commission( 欧盟委员会) showed that 62% of the British people only speak English. 38% speak at least one foreign language and 18% speak two or more. Compared with the British people,56% of the people in other European countries speak at least one foreign language and 28% speak two or more. From this you can see that the British people are famous for not speaking foreign languages and that they are not good language learners in Europe.And the survey also showed that English is the most widely- spoken foreign language. Many European people can have a conversation in English. That's why my people don't think it is necessary to learn a foreign language.In Britain ，students are not required to learn a foreign language. That means learning a foreign language is only an option at school. In UK schools it is common for children to start learning a foreign language at 11 and many of them give it up at 14. So why don't students continue learning foreign languages at school? Because they think it is more difficult to get good marks in languages than in other subjects such as science or history.To solve this situation ， the British government is looking for different ways to improve language learning at school. One way is to start learning it at a much younger age.

People believe that these places were very popular because most homes in ancient Greece and Rome did not have kitchens.

In the early 1100s, more than one million people lived in the city of Hangzhou, China. It was a very busy city, and people had money. All of these people had to eat. Smart cooks started cooking and selling food along the Imperial Way, a very big street in the city. Unlike in ancient Greece and Rome, people in China could choose food from a menu. They didn’t have to eat the same food as everyone else.For the next several centuries, there were restaurants all over the world. People could buy food on the street or at inns-- small hotels. Then in the middle of the 1700s, restaurants started opening in Paris. These restaurants were more similar to restaurants we know today. There was a bigger variety of food, and eating in these restaurants was a more enjoyable experience. In the 19th century, trains made travel much faster and simpler. In the end, this kind of restaurant began to appear all over Europe and in other parts of the world.Now, restaurants are everywhere. You can buy a variety of different kinds of food.
