12、r.Passage OneThe Antarctic (南极洲) is actually a desert. It is the only continent on the earth without a river or a lake.The Antarctic is all ice all year round. The warmest temperature ever recorded there is zero, at the South Pole. Explorers used to think that a place so cold would have a heavy snow
13、fall. But less than ten inches of snow falls each year. That is less than half an inch of water. Ten times that much moisture falls in parts of the Sahara.The little snow that falls in Antarctic never melts. It continues to pile up deeper and deeper year after year.

His mother and father were of Puritan(清教徒
17、)religion. They left England and moved to the English colony of Massachusetts in order to escape persecution(迫害)for their religion. In Boston, Franklin left school when he was ten years old and worked for his father for two years. In Boston, Franklin left school when he was ten years old and worked
18、for his father for two years. Then he went to work on his brothers newspaper. He became the editor of this paper when he was sixteen. Because he wanted to be independent, he went to Philadelphia. There he bought his own newspaper. He worked hard and saved his money. And by the age of 24 he was one o
19、f the most successful men in Philadelphia.In 1732 Franklin published a book “POOR RICHARDS ALMANAC(年历)”。 Most almanacs contained information for farmers, such as information about the days and weeks of the year and about the weather. To his almanac, Franklin added wise sayings, his observations abou
20、t life. Some of these sayings are still famous today. For example, “Early to bed, early to rise makes a man healthy, wealthy and wise”, and “Waste not, want not,” and “A penny saved is a penny earned.”31. Benjamin Franklin was of _.A. English originB.

23、alking about the generation gap (代沟). Some parents complain that their children do not show them proper respect, while children complain that their parents do not understand them at all.What has gone wrong? Why has the generation gap appeared?One important cause is that young people want to choose t
24、heir own life-style. In more traditional societies, when children grow up, they are expected to live in the same area as their parents, to marry people that their parents like, and often to continue the family occupation.Parents often expect their children to do better than they do. Often, however,
25、the high wishes that parents place on their children are another cause of the generation gap.Finally, the high speed of social changes deepens the gap. In a traditional culture, people are valued for their wisdom, but in our society today the knowledge of a lifetime may be out of use overnight (隔夜).
26、36.

28、cupation39.In todays society, the knowledge of a lifetime _.A. is still very much valuedB. becomes out of date quicklyC. is essential for continuing family occupationsD. helps the young generation to find a better job40.A proper title for this passage would be _.A. Parents Viewpoints on Generation G
29、apB. Relationship between Family MembersC. Generation Gap between the Young and the OldD. Difference between Traditional Culture and Modern KnowledgePassage FourA study of art history might be a good way to learn more about a culture than is possible to learn in general history classes. Most typical
30、 history courses concentrate on politics, economics and war. But art history focuses on much more than this because art reflects not only the political values of a people, but also religious beliefs, emotions and psychology. In addition, information about the daily activities of our ancestors can be
31、 provided by art. In short, art expresses the essential qualities of a time and a place, and a study of it clearly offers us a deeper understanding than can be found in most history books.In history books, objective information about the political life of a country is presented; that is, facts about
32、 politics are given, but opinions are not expressed. Art, on the other hand, is subjective(主观的): it reflects emotions and opinions. The great Spanish painter Francisco Goya was perhaps the first truly “political” artist. In his well-known painting The Third of May, 1808, he criticized the Spanish go
33、vernment for its abuse (滥用) of power over people.In the same way, art can reflect a cultures religious beliefs. For hundreds of years in Europe, religious art had been almost the only type of art that existed. Churches and other religious buildings were filled with paintings that described people an
34、d stories from the Bible. Although most people couldnt read, they could still understand the Bible stories in the pictures on church walls. By contrast, one of the main characteristics of art in the Middle East was (and still is) its absence of human and animal images. This reflects the Islamic beli
35、ef that statues (雕像) are not holy.41. More can be learned about a culture from a study of art history than general history because _. A. art history shows us nothing but the political valuesB. general history only focuses on politicsC. art history gives us an insight (洞察力) into the essential qualiti
36、es of a time and a placeD. general history concerns only religious beliefs, emotions and psychology42. Art is subjective in that _. A. a personal and emotional view of history is presented through it B. it only reflects peoples anger or sadness about social problemsC. it can easily arouse peoples an
37、ger about their government D. artists were or are religious, who reflect only the religious aspect of the society 43. Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage? A. In history books political views of people are entirely presented.B. Francisco Goya expressed his religious bel
38、ief in his painting The Third of May, 1808C. In the Middle East, you can hardly find animal or human figures on palaces or other building.D. For centuries in Europe, painters had only painted on walls of churches or other religious buildings.44. The passage mainly discusses _. A. the development of
39、art historyB. he difference between general history and art history C. what we can learn from artD. the influence of artists on art history45. It can be concluded from the passage that _. A. Islamic artists only paint images of plants, flowers or objects in their paintingsB. it is more difficult to
40、study art history than general history C. a history teacher must be quite objectiveD. artists painted people or stories from the Bible to hide their political beliefsPart IV Cloze Directions: In this part, you are required to read the following passage carefully and then choose the best answer from

No one seemed content; everyone had some complaints. If a man was rich, he never had enough. If he was not rich, it was someone els
43、es mistake. If he was _50_, he had a bad mother-in-law. If he had a good mother-in-law, he was catching a cold. Everyone had something to complain about. Finally, one night the kings own son was passing a small cottage _51_ he heard someone say, “Thank you. Ive finished my daily labor, and helped my
44、 fellow man. My family and I have eaten our fill, and now we can lie and sleep in peace. _52_ more could I want?” the prince was very happy _53_ a happy man at last.
