     New archaeological discovers suggest that trade between Europe and Asia along the Silk

Road probably began in some form many countries earlier than once thought. The findings, coupled with a widening range of scientific and historical research, could add a fascinating new

page to the epic of the Silk Road.

    The latest and most surprising discovery is pieces of silk found in the hair of an Egyptian mummy from about 1000 BC, long before regular traffic on the Silk Road and at least one thousand years before silk was previously thought to be used in Egypt. Other research may extend human activity along this route back even further, perhaps a million years to the migration of human ancestors into eastern Asia.

    The official origin of East-West commerce along the road is usually placed in the late 2nd century BC when an agent of the Chinese Emperor Wu-di returned from a dangerous secret mission（使命）across the desert into the remote high country of Central Asia. The agent, Zhang Qian, travelled as far as Afghanistan and brought back knowledge of even more distant lands such as Persia, Syria and a place known as Lijien, perhaps Rome. Historians have called this one of the most important journeys in ancient times. His journey opened the way for what have been thought to be the first indirect contacts between the ancient world’s two superpowers, China and Rome. Chinese silk, first traded to central Asian tribes for war horses and to the Parthians of old Persia in exchange for acrobats and ostrich eggs, was soon finding its way through a network of merchants to the luxury markets of Rome.

    But the new discoveries show that Chinese silk was apparently present in the West long before the Han emperor started organized trade over the Silk Road. The research could change thinking about the early history of world trade and provide insights into the mystery of just how and when Europe and the Mediterranean lands first became aware of the glorious culture at the other end of Eurasia.

The word “coupled” in the first paragraph could best be replaced by ______.

 A. produced       B. contributed      C. doubled        D. combined

The silk thread found in the hair of an Egyptian mummy suggests that ______.

 A. Egyptians had probably travelled to China to buy silk

 B. trade along the Silk Road began earlier than once thought

 C. historical research often achieves fascinating results

 D. new light can now be thrown on ancient trading practices

Until recently most historians believed that trade along the Silk Road _______.

 A. originated in the 2nd century BC

 B. extended human migration into eastern Asia

 C. began a million years ago

 D. primarily benefited the Egyptians

Historians have always considered Zhang Qian’s mission important because they believe ______.

 A. be brought back knowledge of Rome to the emperor     B. be discovered the Silk Road

 C. be helped establish East-West trade               D. be travelled as far as Afghanistan

科目：高中英語(yǔ) 來(lái)源：2013屆江西省南昌10所省重點(diǎn)中學(xué)高三第二次模擬突破沖刺英語(yǔ)卷（八）（帶解析） 題型：閱讀理解

All it took was a slice of Xinjiang cake to spark heated debates online over China's policy on ethnic（民族的）minorities .
Since Monday, qiegao (cut cake) has been a trending topic on Sina Weibo, China’s main Twitter-like microblogging service.
The cake was a reference to Xinjiang’s famed nut cake, sometimes known by its old Turkic name baklava, a popular pastry across Central Asia and the Middle East. In Xinjiang, they are sold by Uygur vendors（小販）on tricycles who are known to charge dubious prices depending on the time and season.
The ethnic flare-up started after the Yueyang police from Hunan province posted a message on their official Weibo account. It reported a dispute in Pingjiang county over an overpriced piece of nut cake between a Xinjiang Uygur vendor and a villager named "Ling".
Villager Ling got into a fight with a Uygur due to a misunderstanding. The verbal dispute eventually escalated into a fight and then a mass fight. As a result, two people were injured and Xinjiang nut cakes worth about 160,000 yuan (US$25,000) were destroyed. The total damage was worth 200,000 yuan which included a broken motorcycle and injuries to people. Local police have detained（扣留） Ling. The 16 Uygur sellers were dully compensated and sent back to Xinjiang.
"Yueyang police incident" quickly became one of the most popular topics on Weibo. Yueyang police removed the post shortly after. As of Tuesday night, the topic was still amassing more than 66,000 hits.
The incident is just one of many similar cases of ethnic tensions across China, notably in Xinjiang province, where deeply entrenched social and racial frictions between the dominant ethnic Han Chinese and minority Uygur Muslims occasionally spark violence. Many Uygurs living in major Chinese cities are viewed by locals as thieves, crooks and even terrorists.
【小題1】Which of the following is true?

A．The dispute is between a Xinjiang Uygur vendor and a policeman.
B．Nut cake is a popular pastry across East Asia and the Middle East.
C．The prices of Baklava will change according to the time and season.
D．The demand of the 16 Uygur sellers were refused and they were sent back to Xinjiang.
【小題2】How much did the broken motorcycle cost？
A．160,000 yuan B．200,000 yuan
C．40，000yuanD．We don’t know
【小題3】 What’s the best title of the passage?
A．World's most expensive baklava.
B．Ethnic tensions across China.
C．Pay attention to the Uygurs
D．Misunderstanding caused by a fight
【小題4】 What can we infer from the passage?
A．Yueyang police are afraid of the Xinjiang Uygur vendor
B．It’s not the only ethnic tension across China,
C．Many Uygurs living in major Chinese cities are viewed by locals as thieves, crooks and even terrorists.
D．Villager Ling got into a fight with a Uygur due to a misunderstanding.
【小題5】 Where is this passage probably from?
A．Microblogging.B．Textbook.
C．Newspaper.D．Article.

Five Olympic mascots were announced exactly 1000 days before the Beijing Olympic opening ceremony. The long--anticipated mascots represent four of China's most popular animals — the fish, the panda, the Tibetan antelope and the swallow .The fifth mascot is the brightly burning Olympic flame.

Each of the mascots has a repeated two-syllable name. This type of name is a traditional way of showing affection for children in China. BeiBei is the fish, JingJing is the panda, HuanHuan is the Olympic flame, YingYing is the Tibetan antelope and NiNi is the swallow. The first characters of their two-syllable names read “Beijing Huanying Ni,” or, in English, “Welcome to Beijing.” 

The five elements of nature, including the sea, forest, fire, earth and sky are found in the mascot's origins and headpieces. These special headpieces also display the folk and culture of China. Each mascot also symbolizes a different blessing ---prosperity, happiness, passion, health and good luck.

It is the first time more than three mascots will share the important duty of representing their host country. Han Meilin, chief of the mascot design team explained that, “China has such a rich culture that no single mascot could possibly represent it! That is why we chose to produce five mascots instead of one.”

Called the “Five Friendlies,” the figures embody（體現(xiàn)） the Chinese people’s hope for peace and friendship in the world and the spirit of the Olympics, representing not only multi-ethnic(多民族的) cultures of China, but also the traditional Chinese philosophy of harmony between humans and nature.

In order to help Beijing 2008 spread its theme of One World, One Dream to every continent, the Five Friendlies reflect the deep desire of the Chinese people to reach out to the world in friendship through the Games — and to invite every man, woman and child to take part in the great celebration of human union in 2008. 

1. What’s the theme of Beijing 2008 Olympics?

A.Welcome to Beijing.

B.Prosperity, Happiness, Passion, Health and Good luck.

C.New Beijing, New Olympics.

D.One World, One Dream.

2. What did Han Meilin, chief of the mascot design team, think of the five mascots?

A.He thought highly of the five mascots.

B.No single mascot could represent China.

3. Which of the following statements is not true?

A.It’s for the first time that five mascots are chosen to represent their host country in the Olympic history.

B.One of the five mascots YingYing stands for the Olympic flame.

C.Beijing announced its five 2008 Olympic mascots just 1000 days before the big event.

D.The five mascots express affection for Chinese children by two-syllable names.

4. Which of the following best reflects the main idea of the passage?

A.The 29th Olympic Games will be held in Beijing in 2008.

B.The theme of 2008 Beijing Olympics — One World, One Dream.

C.The significance of five 2008 Olympic mascots — the Five Friendlies.

D.How the Five Fantastic Mascots came into being.

5. What do the five mascots — the Five Friendlies represent?

A.“Beijing Huanying Ni,” or, in English, “Welcome to Beijing.” 

B.Chinese multi-ethnic cultures, philosophy of harmony between humans and nature and five elements of nature.

C.Chinese people’s hope for peace and friendship in the world and the spirit of the Olympics.

D.The deep desire of the Chinese people to reach out to the world in friendship through the Olympics.
