On May 23,1989，Stefania Follini came out from a cave at Carlsbad，New Mexico.She hadn't seen the sun for eighteen and a half weeks.Stefania was in a research program，and the scientists in the program were studying body rhythms(節(jié)奏)．In this experiment Stefania had spent 130 days in a cave,30 feet in depth.
During her time in the cave，Stefania had been completely alone except for two white mice.Her living place had been very comfortable，but there had been nothing to tell her the time.She'd had no clocks or watches，no television or radio.There had been no natural light and the temperature had always been kept at 21℃.
The results were very interesting.Stefania had been in the cave for over four months，but she thought she had been there for only two.Her body clock had changed.She hadn't kept to a 24hour day，she had stayed awake for 20～25 hours and then had slept for 10 hours.She had eaten fewer meals and had lost 171 bs in weight as a result！She had also become rather depressed(抑郁)．
How had she spent her time in the cave？As part of the experiment she'd done some physical and mental tests.She'd recorded her daily activities and the results of the tests on a computer.This computer had been specially programmed for the project.Whenever she was free，she'd played cards，read books and listened to music.She'd also learned French from tapes.
The experiment showed that our body clocks are affected by light and temperature.For example，the pattern of day and night makes us wake up and go to sleep.However，people are affected in different ways.Some people wake up naturally at 5：00 am，but others don't start to wake up till 9：00 or 10：00 am.This affects the whole daily rhythm.As a result，the early risers are at their best in the late morning.The late risers, on the other hand，are tired during the day and only come to life in the afternoon or evening!
68．Stefania stayed in the cave for a long time because________.
A．she was asked to do research on mice
B．she wanted to experience loneliness
C．she was the subject of a study
D．she needed to record her life
69．What is a cause for the change of Stefania's body clock?
A．Eating fewer meals.
B．Having more hours of sleep.
C．Lacking physical exercise.
D．Getting no natural light.
70．Where does the text probably come from ?
A．A novel. B．A news story.
C．A pet magazine. D．A travel guide.

The British royal family is about to be slimmed down. The Queen plans to reduce the number of real royals, it was recently announced. However, there seems little sign of the monarchy (君主) disappearing completely.
Up till the 17th century, the British king or queen was believed to rule by “divine (神的) right”, which was the idea that God chose the king or queen to rule and that he or she was therefore above the law. However, this idea ended with the English Revolution, in which King Charles I was imprisoned and then beheaded (斬首) in 1649.
So what role does the British royal family have today?
Well, the Queen has important formal duties as Head of State, the Queen represents the UK on v
isits abroad and invites other world leaders to visit the UK. As Head of the Armed Forces: Only the Queen can declare when the UK is at war or when war is over. The Queen also has constitutional duties: She has to sign many government and Commonwealth (英聯(lián)邦) documents everyday.
In addition, the royal family sends a great deal of its time traveling up and down the country in support of different charity projects.
But republicans in Britain do not believe there should be a royal family. Sometimes, the press and media criticize the royal family as well. One criticism is that British people should have to pay for the royal family through their taxes.
Today, the royal family works hard to be relevant(相關(guān)聯(lián)的) in the modern world. The Queen Speech on television is less formal every Christmas, and is now available as a podcast (播客). In 2005, after graduating from university, Prince William spent time teaching English in Uruguay, the sort of work many young British people do at some time in their lives.
1. What can be concluded from the first two paragraphs?
A. The British King or Queen is now considered above the law.
B. The British King or Queen is no longer believed to rule by divine right.
C. The royal family played a less important role in Britain in the late 17th century than in nowadays.
D. The English Revolution put an end to the British royal family in 1649.
2. Which of the following is NOT among formal duties of the Queen?
A. Traveling around the UK.
B. Declaring when the UK is at war.
C. Inviting other leaders to vis
it the UK.
D. Signing Commonwealth documents every day.
3. With the example of Prince William in the last paragraph, the author intends to show _____.
A. Prince William is very popular in the UK
B. the royal family is trying to connect better with ordinary people
C. Prince William has made an effort to win young people’s admiration
D. many young British people do voluntary work
4. According to the article, British people __________.
A. are all in favor of the royal family
B. can talk to the Queen through a podcast
C. pay for the royal family through the taxes
D. criticize the royal family through media and press

The English language started about 1500 years ago in England. Three groups of people came to the country. They were the Angles, the Saxons, and the Jutes. These three groups brought their languages with them to England. After some time, the three languages became one new language—English. The name "English" comes from the Angles. They lived in most of England. "England" means "Angle Land" or "Country of the Angles".
The language that we speak today—Modern English—is not the same as the English that people used 1500 years ago, including Old English（before ll50）and Middle English（up till 1500）. That language—Old English—sounds different, and it has some different rules of grammar. There were only a few thousand words in Old English. But Modern English does come from Old English, and it is still like it in many important ways.

| A．About the year 1150. |
| B．Before the year 1500. |
| C．Between the 12th century and the 16th century. |
| D．About 1500 years ago. |
| A．One. | B．Two. | C．Three. | D．Four. |
| A．Modern English. | B．The Angles. | C．The Jutes. | D．The Saxons. |
