61、r example, they developed ways to store the flood waters that flowed for a short time each year._37_ Within each city was a huge temple. It had places to keep food, to keep treasure, and houses for city officials. As society became more complex, the Sumerians realized they needed some way to record
62、information. _38_ Early forms of writing were very simple. They pressed sharp pieces of wood into pieces of wet clay (泥土) to make pictures.

63、n story. _39_ Perhaps the best known of Mesopotamias civilizations was Babylon, the center of a kingdom.

66、一句中的“each city”指的是G项中的“cities like Ur and Nineveh”。38答案与解析:A本空承接上文“the Sumerians realized they needed some way to record information,”苏美尔人意识到他们需要通过某种途径记录信息,因此便发明了书写。故选A项。39答案与解析:DD项中的“This story”指代上文中的“the first major written story”。40答案与解析:F本空前的“Much of Sumerian culture has disappeared from memory”
67、与F项内容形成转折关系,虽然许多苏美尔文化消失在历史长河中,但研究者们对这些人的了解一天比一天多。第三部分语言知识运用(共两节,满分45分)第一节完形填空(共20小题;每小题1.5分,满分30分)阅读下面短文,从短文后各题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中,选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。I live in a house with a beautiful view of hills and our little town.
