  Directions: Read the following passage. Answer the questions according to the information given in the passage and required words limit. Write your answers on your answer sheet.

Few places have as much ancient history and modern knowledge to offer to students as Egypt. In addition to being the site of many of the world’s greatest wonders, Egypt also hosts two major religious institutions. Al-Azhar University is one of the oldest Islamic institutions for higher studies. The head of Al-Azhar is traditionally regarded as the ruler of Sunni Muslims all over the world.

Al-Azhar University had long been known as the most archaic university in the world until 2004, when archaeologists unearthed the site of what was believed to be the first ever ivory tower in the world in the northern seaside city of Alexandria.

What the archaeological team found were 13 lecture halls that could accommodate up to 5,000 students each. These lecture halls are believed to be the University of Alexandria, home of famous Greek scholars like Archimedes and Euclid during the ancient city’s golden era.

This discovery shows that Egypt was a centre for education and learning in the early world civilizations. Its tradition of scholarship was evident even from the Pharaonic Age（法老時(shí)代）, which boasted engineering wonders such as the pyramids as well as the scientific wonder of mummies, all of which still exist tod ay.

During the Islamic Age, Egypt became the regional academic centre for Islamic study and Arabic language and literature. Her popularity with scholars from all over the world grew with the establishment of Al-Azhar University in Cairo, in 975.

Today, it remains a popular destination for international scholars, especially those from the Arab world, Africa, Asia and Europe, but like most modern Egyptian universities, Al-Azhar has been equipped with the latest technologies to cope with new demands from the modern world, and is an ideal place for students from all over the world.

Why has Al-Azhar been equipped with the latest technologies?(no more than 9 word)

What is the passage mainly about ?(no more than 6 word)

What is the writer’s purpose of writing this passage?(no more than 9 word)

閱讀理解。
     During summer vacations, I would work at a hospital for pets, so I'd seen a lot of dogs. Minnie was
by far the funniest-looking dog I'd ever seen. Thin curly hair barely covered her sausage-shaped body.
Her bugged-out (凸出)eyes always seemed surprised. And her tail looked like a rat's tail. She was brought
to the hospital because her owners didn't want her anymore. I thought Minnie had a sweet personality,
though."No one should judge her by her looks," I thought.

al ms and rushed her out to their grandfather, who was waiting in the car. I hurried behind them to see his
reaction(反應(yīng)) to Minnie.
     Inside the car, the grandfather held Minnie in his arms and touched her soft hair gently. She moved her
mouth over his face. Her rat tail moved from side to side so quickly that it looked like it might fly off her
body. It was love at first lick (舔).
