The West began to take more notice of the East.The fifth volume of an enormous work reassessing the Chinese contribution to science and technology is to be published next year.The first volume,which was published twenty years ago,set the tone for the whole work.In it,evidence was given to show that many inventions which,until then,western historians had claimed forEurope,were made first in China.The attempt to rewrite the intellectual history of the world was not received without protest by some reputable historians.However,the evidence that has been presented so far in the first four volumes has persuaded many historians who were skeptical at first.China’s invention of paper,printing,the magnetic compass and gunpowder has never been disputed,but this new history has added advanced bridge design,mechanical clocks,paddle boats and many other inventions to the list.
In the four volumes published so far no attempt has been made to explain why China has not kept up with the West in science and technology in modern times.It is probable that the answer is to be found in the social and economic history of China,where a static(穩(wěn)定的) society under a relatively kind regime(政權(quán)) of scholar-gentry(貴族) contrasts with the potentially revolutionary and dynamic(有活力的) society of the West at the end of the Middle Ages.In recent years,the Chinese government has been making every effort to catch up with the West again,and there is little doubt that the gap is being reduced year by year.But will China avoid the West’s mistakes?
The first volume was published__________.
A.ten years ago B.last year C.five years ago D.twenty years ago
In Line 7,the word “skeptical” means _________.
A.doubtful B.worried C.sad D.angry
Which of the following is not mentioned in the passage?
A.Gunpowder. B.Needle. C.Paddle boats. D.Bridge design.
The best title for this passage is _________.
A.China’s Inventions
B.Comparisons Between the East and the West
C.China Is Catching Up
D.Situations in China

Nearly everyone is shy in some ways. If shyness is making you uncomfortable, it may be time for a few lessons in self-confidence. You can build your confidence by following some suggestions from doctors and psychologists.
Make a decision not to hold back in conversations. What you have to say is just as important as what other people say. And don’t turn down party invitations just because of your shyness.
Prepare yourself for being with others in groups. Make a list of the good qualities you have. Then make a list of ideas, experiences, and skills you would like to share with other people. Think about what you would like to say in advance. Then say it.
If you start feeling self-conscious in a group, take a deep breath and focus your attention on other people. Remember, you are not alone. Other people are concerned about the impression they are making, too.

I was fifteen months old, a happy kid until the day I fell. It was a 31 fall. I landed on a glass rabbit which cut my eye badly enough to make it blind. Trying to save the eye, the doctors stitched(縫合) the eyeball together where it was 32 , leaving a big ugly scar(疤痕) in the middle of my eye. The attempt 33 , but my mother, in all of her wisdom, found another doctor who knew that if the eye were removed 34 , my face would grow up badly distorted(扭曲)， 35 my scarred, sightless, cloudy and gray eye lived on with me. As I grew, this sightless eye in so many ways 36 me.
I walked with my face looking at the 37 so that people would not see the 38 me. Yet my mother would say to me, at every turn, “Hold your head up high and 39 the world. If you hold your head up high, it will be OK, and people will see your 40 soul.” She continued this 41 whenever I was trying to hide.
Mama’s words were of great help for me to face the world 42 . As a teenager, even though I tended to look down to hide my shame, I found that sometimes when I held my head up high and let people know me, they 43 me. In high school, I was 44 both academically and socially. I was 45 elected class president.
