7、re in rush hours. DTravelling by your own.BImagine a relay(接力) race. During this race, an athlete holds a stick as he runs a certain distance. Then he passes the stick to the next runner. That person runs faster, and then passes the stick to a third runner. Now imagine that the runners do not pass a
8、 stick. Instead they pass shiny silk, as well as gold, fruit, and glass. Imagine that the race does not move forward in just one direction. Instead the runners go back and forth along a road. They trade goods all along this route (路线) and at each end of it. Now imagine that the runners are businessm
9、en. They lead caravans (商队) or lines of camels that carry things to sell. They travel on the ancient Silk Road to earn their living.The Silk Road was a complex trade network. It passed through thousands of cities and towns. It stretched from eastern China, across central Asia and the Middle east, to
10、 the Mediterranean Sea. Businessmen traveled on the Silk Road from about 200 BC to about 1300 AD. Then sea travel began to offer new routes. Some people called the Silk Road the worlds longest highway. However, the Silk Road included many routesnot just one smooth path. The routes ran through mounta
11、ins and across deserts. They passed through an area that now includes 18 countries. The Silk Road had many dangers. These dangers ranged from hot sun and deep snow to thieves and wars. Only expert traders could survive.The Silk Road got its name from its most prized goods. People used silk as money.
12、 They could pay taxes or buy goods with it. Traders carried more than just silk, though. They had gold, silver, and glass from Europe. People in the Middle East and Asia wanted these things. Businessmen also took horses from flat, grassy areas in central Asia and brought them to China and other area
13、s. The horses changed the way people farmed and ran their armies. Indian businessmen traded salt and rare, beautiful stones. Chinese merchants traded medicine and china. They also traded paper, which quickly replaced animal skins in the west. Businessmen carried apples from central Asia to Rome. The
14、 Chinese had learned to combine different trees to create new kinds of fruit. They taught this science to others, such as the Romans. The Romans began to grow apples for food. The Silk Road led to worldwide commerce 2,000 years before the World Wide Web.The people along the Silk Road did not share o

18、nce.C I was never very neat，while my roommate Kate was extremely organized. Each of her objects had its place，but mine always hid somewhere. She even labeled (贴标签) everything.

19、ld lay my books on her tidy desk. We both got tired of each other.War broke out one evening. Kate came into the room. Soon，I heard her screaming，“Take your shoes away!

25、ork Pays OffCHow to Be Organized DMy Friend KateDRace walking shares many fitness benefits with running, research shows, while most likely contributing to fewer injuries. It does, however, have its own problem.Race walkers are conditioned athletes. The longest track and field event at the Summer Oly
26、mpics is the 50-kilometer race walk, which is about five miles longer than the marathon. But the sports rules require that a race walkers knees stay straight through most of the leg swing and one foot remain in contact (接触) with the ground at all times. Its this strange form that makes race walking
27、such an attractive activity, however, says Jaclyn Norberg, an assistant professor of exercise science at Salem State University in Salem, Mass.Like running, race walking is physically demanding, she says, According to most calculations, race walkers moving at a pace of six miles per hour would burn
28、about 800 calories(卡路里) per hour, which is approximately twice as many as they would burn walking, although fewer than running, which would probably burn about 1,000 or more calories per hour.However, race walking does not pound the body as much as running does, Dr. Norberg says. According to her re
29、search, runners hit the ground with as much as four times their body weight per step, while race walkers, who do not leave the ground, create only about 1.4 times their body weight with each step.As a result, she says, some of the injuries associated with running, such as runners knee, are uncommon
30、among race walkers. But the sports strange form does place considerable stress on the ankles and hips, so people with a history of such injuries might want to be cautious in adopting the sport. In fact, anyone wishing to try race walking should probably first consult a coach or experienced racer to

What is Dr. Norbergs suggestion for someone trying race walking?A. Having a medical checkup.B. Getting experts opinions.C. Hiring an e
33、xperienced coach.D. Doing regular exercises.15. Which word best describes the authors attitude to race walking?A. Skeptical.B. Tolerant.C. Objective.D.

34、mous World Heritage Sites like the Pyramids of Giza or the Forbidden City in Beijing are truly impressive.16 And they also show what the human mind and human culture are capable(有能力的) of.However,cultural relics(遗迹) are more than just valuable in artthey tell a story of human history.Everything that
35、makes up our society (our values,our language,our traditions,our way of life,etc.) comes from our ancestors.17 This is extremely valuable because it provides us with a way to understand different cultures around the world and how they join each other.It offers chances for us to learn from the past a
