The first excavators (挖掘者) were the people of Pompeii who, 36 to their city when eruption had 37 , dug down through the
19、38 of their buried homes and salvaged (抢救) what they could of their furniture and 39 . The tunnel they 40 through the solidified ash can still be seen in places. But a time came 41 Pompeii and Herculaneum were forgotten. Throughout the Middle Ages these two buried cities were not 42 , and it was not
20、 until 1709 43 an Austrian prince sank a shaft (矿井) at Herculaneum and then, by means of underground tunnel, 44 the city of its treasures, in 1792 systematic (系统的) excavation began on the same site. From the end of the eighteenth century to the present day, digging had gone on practically continuous
21、ly, 45 slowly, and often with few resources. Perhaps this slowness has not been entirely a 46 , since it has resulted in large, untouched sections of both cities left preserved for modern, scientific 47 . Archaeological techniques have 48 so much in the last fifty years that a 49 can now be shown fa

26、AChinese are very generous when it comes to education their children. Not caring about the money, parents often send their children to the best schools or even abroad or England, the United States or Australia. They also want their children to take extra-course activities where they will either lear
27、n instrument or ballet, or other classes which will give them a head start in life. The Chinese believe that the more expensive an education is, the better it is. So parents will spend an unreasonable amount of money on education. Even poor couples will buy a computer for their son or daughter.Howev
28、er, what most parents fail to see is that the best early education they can give their children is usually very cheap.Parents can see that their childrens skills are very skilled in some areas while poor in others. What most parents fail to realize though, is that todays children lack self-respect a
29、nd self-confidence.The problem is that parents are only education their children on how to take multiple choice tests and how to study well, but parents are not teaching the most important skills they need to be confident, happy and clever. Parents can achieve this by teaching practical skills like
30、cooking, sewing and doing other housework. Teaching a child to cook will improve many of the skills that he will need later in his life. Cooking demands patience and time. It is an enjoyable but difficult experience. A good cook always tries to improve his cooking, so he will learn to work hard and
31、gradually finish his job successfully. His result, a well-cooked dinner, will give him much satisfaction and a lot of self-confidence. Some old machines, such as a broken radio or TV set that you give your child to play with will make him curious and arouse his interest. He will spend hours looking
32、at them, trying to fix them: your child might become an engineer when he grows up. These activities are not merely teaching a child to read a book, but rather to think, to use his mind. And that is more important.56Generally speaking, childrens skills _. Acome from their parentsBhave nothing to do w
33、ith their educationCmay be differentDhave nothing to do with their marks in the exams57The writer of the passage does not seem to be satisfied with _.Athe parents idea of education their childrenBthe education systemCchildrens skillsDchildrens hobbies58Doing some cooking at home helps children _.Ale
34、arn how to serve their parentsBlearn how to become strong and fat Cbenefit from it and prepare themselves for the futureDmake their parents believe that they are clever59According to the last paragraph, we can conclude that _. Abroken radios and television sets are usefulBones curiosity may be usefu
35、l for his later lifeCan engineer must fix many broken radiosDa good student should spend much time repairing radios.60Parents in China, according to this passage, _.Aare to strict with their childrenBare too rich to educate their childrenChave some problems in educating their children correctlyDare
36、too poor to educate their childrenBElderly people like calm and unhurried environment. This is not always easy to provide as their manners can sometimes make people unhappy. If they get excited or upset then they may become more confused and more difficult to look after. Although sometimes it can be
37、 extremely difficult, it is best to be patient and not to upset yourself. You should always encourage old people to do as much as possible for themselves but be ready to lend a helping hand when necessary. At the same time it is also important that you dont make them feel like children.Failing memor
38、y makes it very difficult for the person to remember all the basic kinds of information which are quite natural to us. The obvious way to help in this situation is to supply the information that is missing and help them make sense of what is going on. The information has to be repeated over and over
39、 again to make up for the poor memory. You must use every chance to provide information but remember to keep it simple and straightforward.The kinds of information that may be required are (1) who you are (2) where you are (3) where are going (4) whats happening and why (5) whats to be done, e.g.“Go
40、od morning, Mum. This is Fion, your daughter. It is eight oclock so if you get up now we can have breakfast downstairs.”When the elderly person makes confused statements, e.g. about going out to his or her old work or visiting a dead relative, correct him/her in a calm matter-of-fact way: “No, you d
41、ont work in the office any more. Youre retired now. Will you come and help me with the dishes?” We depend very much on the information provided by signposts, clocks calendars and newspapers. These help us to organize and direct our manners. Confused old people need these aids all the time to make up
42、 for their poor memory. Encourage them to use and refer to reminder boards or diaries for important future events and notes telling the contents of different cupboards and drawers. Many other aids such as colour coding, cards of information, photographs, scrap books, addresses of shopping lists coul
43、d help in the personal cases. You will probably have to encourage the elderly person to use these aids at first. 61The main subject of the passage about elderly people is _.Atheir general care and welfareBbuilding up their physical and mental healthChow they can be helped to look after themselves as
44、 far as possibleDhelping physically disabled people to live a normal life62The passage gives help to anyone who has a duty of helping elderly forgetful person by _.Aremoving some of his or her worries about the jobBsuggesting helpful things to do in these situationsCproviding ideas that will help in
45、 recovering the lost memoryDexplaining the causes of loss memory63A difficulty experienced by the friend and relatives is that they may _. Aworry too much about the old persons conditionBtry to do too much for the person relatedCfind it difficult sometimes to deal with matters calmly Dfail to unders
46、tand the old persons problems64Aids that can be seen can give practical help to elderly people by _.Abringing back to mind different kinds of useful informationBinforming them about what has to be done next Chelping them to receive old memoriesD clearing up their mistakes and confusionCThe U.S. Depa
47、rtment of Labor statistics (统计) show that there is an oversupply of college trained workers and that this oversupply is increasing. Already there have been more than enough teachers, engineers, physicists, aerospace experts, and other specialists. Yet colleges and graduate schools continue every yea
48、r to turn out highly trained people to compete for jobs that arent there. The result is that graduates cannot enter the professions for which they were trained and must take temporary jobs which do not require a college degree.On the other hand, there is a great need for skilled workers of all sorts
49、: carpenters, electricians, mechanics, plumbers, TV repairmen.These people have more work than they can deal with, and their annual incomes are often higher than those of college graduates. The old gap that white-collar workers make a better living than blue-collar workers no longer holds true. The
50、law of supply and demand now favors skilled workmen.The reason for this situation is the traditional myth that college degree is a passport to a prosperous future. A large part of American society matches success in life equally with a college degree. Parents begin indoctrination (灌输) their children
51、 with this myth before they are out of grade school. High school teachers play their part by acting as if high school education were a preparation for college rather than for life. Under this pressure the kids fall in line. Whether they want to go to college or not doesnt matter. Everybody should go
52、 to college, so of course they must go. And every year college enrollments (入学) go up and up, and more and more graduates are overeducated for the kinds of jobs available to them. One result of this emphasis on a college education is that many people go to college who do not belong there. Of the six
53、ty percent of high school graduates who enter college, half of them do not graduate with their class. Many of them drop within the first year. Some struggle on for two or three years and then give up.65Its implied but not stated in the passage that _.Amany other countries are facing the same problem
54、Bwhite-collar workers in the US used to make more money than blue-collar workersCfewer students will prefer to go to college in the future Dthe law of supply and demand has a strong effect on American higher education66Which of the following is NOT a reason why college enrollment go up every year?AM
55、any people believe that the only way to success is a college education.BMany parents want their children to go to college.CHigh school teachers urge their students to go to college.DEvery young man and woman wants to go to college67By saying that “many people go to college who do not belong there”,
56、the author means that _.Amany people who are not fit for college education go to collegeBmany people who do not have enough money go to collegeCmany people who go to college drop out within the first yearDmany people who go to college have their hopes destroyed 68We can infer from the passage that t
57、he author believes that _.Aevery young man and woman should go to collegeBcollege education is a bad thingCpeople with a college education should receive higher payDfewer people should go to college while more should be trained for skilled jobs.DDrunken driving-sometimes called Americas socially acc
58、epted form of murder-has become a national epidemic (流行病). Every hour of every day about three Americans on average are killed by drunken drivers, adding up to an incredible 250,000 over the past ten years. A drunken driver is usually referred to as one with 0.10 blood alcohol content or roughly thr
59、ee beer glasses of wine or shots of whisky drunk within two hours. Heavy drinking used to be an acceptable part of the American manly image and judges were lenient in most courts, but the drunken killing has recently caused so many well-publicized tragedies, especially concerning young children, tha
60、t public opinion is no longer so tolerant.Twenty states have raised the legal drinking age to 21, reversing a trend (逆转潮流) in the 1960s to reduce it to 18. After New Jersey lowered it to 18, the number of people killed by 18-20-year-old drivers more than doubled, so the state recently upped it back
61、to 21.Reformers, however, fear raising the drinking age will have little effect unless accompanied by educational programs to help young people to develop “responsible attitudes” about drinking and teach them to resist peer pressure to drink.Though new laws have led to increased arrests and tests in
62、 many areas already, to a marked drop in accidents, some states are also punishing bars for serving customers too many drinks. A bar in Massachusetts was fined for serving six or more double brandies to a customer who was “obviously drunk” and later drove off the road, killing a nine-year-old boy.As
63、 the accidents continue to occur daily in every state, some Americans are even beginning to speak well of the 13 years national prohibition (禁令) of alcohol that began in 1919, which President Hoover called the “noble experiment”. They forgot the legal prohibition didnt stop drinking, but encouraged
64、political corruption (腐败) and organized crime. As with the booming drug trade generally, there is no easy solution.69What can be inferred from the fact of the traffic accidents in New Jersey?AYoung drivers were usually bad.BThe legal drinking age should be raised.CSome drivers didnt surprise the leg
65、al drinking age.DDrivers should not be allowed to drink.70The underlined word “lenient” in the first paragraph means _.Amerciful Bcruel CseriousDdetermined71As regards drunken driving, public opinion has changed because _.Ajudges are no longer lenient Bnew laws are introduced in some statesCdrivers
66、do not appreciate their manly imageDthe news media have raised public attention of the problemEThere are two basic ways to see growth: one as a product, the other as a process. People have generally viewed personal growth as an external (外在) result or a product that can easily be identified and meas
67、ured. The worker who gets a rise, the student whose grades improve, the foreigner who learns a new language - all these examples of people who have measurable results to show for their efforts.By contrast, the process of personal growth is much more difficult to determine, since it is a journey and
68、not the specific signpost or landmarks along the way. The process is not the road itself, but the attitudes, feelings people have, and their caution or courage, as they meet with new experiences and unexpected difficulties. In this process, the journey never really ends, there are always new ways to
69、 experience the world, new ideas to try, new challenges to accept.In order to grow, to travel new roads, people need to have a willingness to take risks, to face the unknown, and to accept the possibility that they may “fail” at first. How we see ourselves as we try a new way of being is necessary f
70、or our ability to grow. Do we see ourselves as quick and curious? If so, we tend to take more chances and be more open to unfamiliar experiences. Do we think were shy and indecisive? Then our sense of fear can cause us to hesitate, to move slowly, and we think we are slow to adapt changes or that we
71、re not smart enough to deal with a new challenge. Then we are likely to take a more passive role or not try at all.These feelings of insecurity and self-doubt are both unavoidable and necessary if we are to change and grow. If we protect ourselves too much, then we stop growing. We become trapped in
72、side a shell of our own making.72Which of the following can be viewed as the process of personal growing?AOur manager was always willing to accept new challenges.BJane won the first prize in the speech competition.CJenny picked up French during his stay in Paris.DFathers salary rose from 5,000 to 7,
73、000.73For personal growth, the author is in favor of all the following EXCEPT _.Abeing curious about more changesBbeing quick in self-adaptationChaving an open mind to new experiencesDstaying away from failures and challenges74Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?AIt is not so
74、 easy to measure personal growth.BTo try and fail on the new road facing the unknown is unavoidable.CThere are only two ways to see a persons growth.DIf you are too shy to take any risks in life, you cannot grow.75The best title for this passage should be _.AFacing New ChallengesBGrowth-Product or P

79、swere作文: Is Failure a Bad Thing?Failure is such a common matter that every one of us may meet it from time to time.People hold different views towards failure in their life. Some people are so sad and disappointed at their unsuccessful attempts that they will never get up the courage to have another
80、 try. Other people view repeated failures as most natural on the way towards achievementthey will keep on trying until they succeed in the end. Personally, I agree with the second group of people. If you have only had wonderful things happen to you, how can you become brave? Few people can be successful in the first place, and failure can teach us much more than success. From now on I will not be much too discouraged at failures. On the contrary, I will stand up to the next challenge and move on to my goal with hope.
