【解析】

試題分析:文章講述了在南美洲Titicaca湖下一座上千年廟宇的發(fā)現(xiàn)和研究過程。

【1】whose 考查關(guān)系代詞。句中包含定語從句,先行詞是ancient people,定語從句是76._______ culture was thought to be highly developed,先行詞在定語從句中定語修飾culture,指他們的文化,故填whose。

【2】taking 考查非謂語動(dòng)詞。句中take的主語和句子的主語scientists一致,是現(xiàn)在分詞定語修飾scientists,故填taking。

【3】a 考查冠詞。此處修飾單數(shù)名詞temple,指一座一千年的廟宇,故填a。

【4】built 考查過去分詞。句中a temple和動(dòng)詞build是被動(dòng)關(guān)系,根據(jù)by the people也可知,指廟宇被建。此處用過去分詞表被動(dòng),故填built

【5】valuable 考查形容詞。此處修飾名詞materials,指貴重的材料,故填形容詞valuable。

【6】unless 考查連詞。句意:這周以后這個(gè)工程的領(lǐng)導(dǎo)者希望從這個(gè)地方把貴重材料運(yùn)上去,除非壞天氣改變他們的計(jì)劃。根據(jù)句意填unless

【7】carefully 考查副詞。此處修飾動(dòng)詞study用副詞,指仔細(xì)研究材料,故填carefully。

【8】founder 考查名詞。此處指項(xiàng)目的創(chuàng)辦人,與上文的leader意思一致,故填名詞founder。

【9】to 考查固定短語。be similar to相似是固定短語,故填to

【10】have made 考查時(shí)態(tài)。時(shí)間狀語So far和現(xiàn)在完成時(shí)連用,故填have made。

With the development of society, the life span of humans has stretched. Both men and women are living longer these days in industrialized countries. 【1】 In general, they can expect to live six or seven years more than men. One reason for this is biological.

One important biological factor that helps women live longer is the difference in hormones between men and women. 2 Between the ages of about 12 and 50, women produce hormones that are involved in fertility (生育能力). These hormones also have a positive effect on the heart and blood flow. In fact, women are less likely to have high blood pressure or to die from heart attacks.

___3 They help the boy defend itself against some kinds of infections. This means that women generally get sick less often and less seriously than men. The common cold is a good example: women, on average, get fewer colds than men. 4 Scientists are still not exactly sure how genes influence aging, but they believe that they do. Some think that a woman’s body cells have a tendency to age more slowly than a man’s. Others think that a man’s body cells have a tendency to age more quickly. 5

A. However, women, on average, live longer.

B. The biological factor plays an important part.

C. Women are also helped by their female genes.

D. The female hormones also protect the body in another way.

E. Recent research seems to support both of these possibilities.

F. Therefore, women are more healthy than men and can live a better life.

G. Hormones are chemicals which are produced by the body to control various body functions.

【題目】Art museums are places where people can learn about various cultures .The increasingly popular “design museums” that are opening today ,however ,perform quite a different role .Unlike most art museums ,the design museum shows objects that are easily found by the general public .These museums sometimes even place things like fridges and washing machines in the center of the hall.

People have argued that design museums are often made use of as advertisements for new industrial technology. But their role is not simply a matter of sales—it is the honoring of excellently invented products. The difference between the window of a department store and the showcase in a design museum is that the first tries to sell you something ,while the second tells you the success of a sale.

One advantage of design museums is that they are places where people feel familiar with the exhibits .Unlike the average art museum visitors ,design museum visitors seldom feel frightened or puzzled .This is partly because design museums clearly show how and why mass-produced products work and look as they do ,and how design has improved the quality of our lives .Art museum exhibits ,on the other hand ,would most probably fill visitors with a feeling that there is something between their understanding.

In recent years ,several new design museums have opened their door ,Each of these museums has tried to satisfy the public’s growing interest in the field with new ideas .London’s Design Museum ,for example ,shows a collection of mass-produced objects from Zippo lighters to electric typewriters to a group of Italian fish-tins .The choices open to design museums seem far less strict than those to art museums ,and visitors may also sense the humorous part of our society while walking around such exhibits as interesting and unusually attractive toys collected in our everyday life.

【1】Showcases in design museums are different from store windows because they.

A.show more technologically advanced products

B.help increase the sales of products

C.show why the products have sold well

D.a(chǎn)ttract more people than store windows do

【2】The author believes that most design museum visitors .

A.do not admire mass-produced products

B.a(chǎn)re puzzled with technological exhibits

C.dislike exhibits in art museums

D.know the exhibits very well

【3】The choices open to design museums .

A.a(chǎn)re not as strict as those to art museums

B.a(chǎn)re not aimed to interest the public

C.may fail to bring some pleasure to visitors

D.often contain precious exhibits

【題目】閱讀下列短文,從每題所給的四個(gè)選項(xiàng)(A、B、C和D)中,選出最佳選項(xiàng)。

I recently got pulled over for speeding not far from my new home in Virginia. I hadn’t been paying attention, and I had driven a few miles an hour over the speed limit.

“Can I see your license and registration?” the police officer asked me. I pulled both out for him, and he saw my Pittsburgh address on my Pennsylvania driver’s license.

“What are you doing here?” he asked. “Are you with the army?”

“No, I’m not.” I answered. I explained that I had just moved to Virginia, and I hadn’t had time to re-register yet.

“So what brings you here?”

He had asked a direct question. Without thinking very hard, I gave him a direct answer. “Well, officer,” I said, “since you’ve asked, I have cancer. I have just months to live. We’ve moved down here to be close to my wife’s family.”

“So you’ve got cancer,” he said flatly. He was trying to figure me out. Was I really dying? Was I lying? He took a long look at me. “You know, for a guy who has only a few months to live, you sure look good.”

He was obviously thinking: “Either this guy is pulling one big fat line on me, or he’s telling the truth.” He was trying to question my honesty without directly calling me a liar. And so he had forced me to prove that I was being honest.

“Well, officer, I know that I look pretty healthy. I look great on the outside, but the tumors are on the inside.” And then, I don’t know what possessed me, but I just did it. I pulled up my shirt, showing the operational scars.

He looked at my scars. He looked in my eyes. He now knew he was talking to a dying man. Well, he wasn’t taking this any further. He handed me back my license. “Do me a favor.” he said, “Slow down from now on.”

The awful truth had set me free. As he went back to his police car, I had a realization. I had been one of those gorgeous blondes (金發(fā)美女) who could bat her eyelashes and get out of tickets. I drove home under the speed limit, and I was smiling like a beauty queen.

【1】The author was stopped by the police officer because ______.

A. he didn’t have a license

【題目】I really love my job because I enjoy working with small children and like the challenges and awards from the job. I also think my work is important. There was a time when I thought I would never have that sort of career.

I wasn’t an excellent student because I didn’t do much schoolwork. In my final term I started thinking what I might do and found I didn’t have much to offer. I just accepted that I wasn’t the type to have a career.

I then found myself a job looking after two little girls. It wasn’t too bad at first. But the problems began when I agreed to live in so that I would be there if my boss had to go out for business in the evening. We agreed that if I had to work extra hours one week, she’d give me time off the next. But unfortunately, it didn’t often work out. I was getting extremely tired and fed up, because I had too many late nights and early mornings with the children.

One Sunday, I was in the park with the children, and met Megan who used to go to school with me. I told her about my situation. She suggested that I should do a course and get a qualification(資格證書)if I wanted to work with children. I didn’t think I would be accepted because I didn’t take many exams in school. She persuaded me to phone the local college and they were really helpful. My experience counted for a lot and I got on a part-time course. I had to leave my job with the family, and got work helping out at a kindergarten.

Now I’ve got a full-time job there. I shall always be thankful to Megan. I wish I had known earlier that you could have a career, even if you aren’t top of the class at school.

【1】 What is the author’s present job?

B. often worked long hours

C. got much help from her boss

D. took a day off every other week
