38、t of the sea，and those in deep water are especially well protected.No dry land sites anywhereexcept perhaps Egyptian tombsare in a better state of preservation than a vessel deep in the ocean.A sunken ship，therefore，can be a rare window through which a moment in time is glimpsed.This is not to imply

39、 that sunken ships are always found intact.Most ships break up on the way down，hit the bottom at about 100 miles per hour，and become a chaotic，confusing jumble(混乱的一堆)I recall the chagrin(懊恼)of a novice diver who，after surfacing from an underwater tour of a 400foot ship，asked his diving buddy.“Where

40、was the wreck？” It takes experience to actually know sunken ship when one sees it.But no matter what its condition on the way down，a ship deteriorates much more slowly as it sinks deeper into protective layer of sand and mud.Ancient vessels have been found in remarkably good condition.In 1997 a grou

DA bronze chest.58According to the passage，which of the following usually happens to a ship as it sinks?AIt remains in an upright pos

43、ition.BIt gets transported by the currents.CIt breaks into pieces.DIt attracts marine life.59Which of the following objects found on the 900yearold wreck most surprised the author?AMoney. BJars.CChicken bones. DGlassware.60Which of the following features of an ancient ship is of most interest to the

44、 author?ASpeed. BContents. CLocation. DDesign.BTo discover how life began，archaeologists study fossils(化石)Fossils are the remains or marks of plants and animals of long ago that have been preserved in the earths crust.The simplest forms of life appear in the lowest or oldest rocks.Although scientist

45、s can calculate that the earth is 4.6 billion years old，the oldest rocks that show any trace of life are less than 2 billion years old.Therefore，about 2.5 billion years has passed on the earth when life originated.Since the oldest form of life were all sea life，many scientists believe life began in

46、the sea.We do not know exactly how，but in some miraculous way，the right kind of molecules happened to combine in the ocean or in clay to form a minute organism.All life has probably developed from that single cell，which may have been something like the bacteria of today.This onecelled organism ate，g

47、rew，responded to its surrounding，reproduced itself，and spread throughout the oceans.Probably those first tiny organisms were not all alike.Some were better able to obtain food or adapt to colder waters.The stronger cells survived and their characteristics were passed on to the next generation.The ea

48、rly cells reproduced simply by dividing in two.After a long time，single cells became attached to one another，and each cell became specialized in a different function. Gradually_organisms_became_more_and_more_complex. Today，many living things are made up of a combinations of cells；our bodies are comp

49、osed of skin cells，blood cells，muscle cells，brain cells，and so on.The gradual migration of life from the ocean to the land was another major step that made many advances possible.Eventually plants and animals divided into males and females，and possibilities increased for developing new and varied sp

50、ecies or types.To date，more than 400 000 species of plants and 1 200 000 species of animals have developed.Gradually，the senses of sight and hearing improved in animals and brains grew and developed.Finally，intelligence progressed，leading to the development of human beings.61According to the passage

51、，in order to study when and where life came into being，scientists should _.Astudy animals and plantsBanalyze fossils scientificallyCcalculate the time for the existence of the earthDpreserve the earths crust with the oldest rocks62According to the passage，scientists are deeply impressed by _.Athe ev

52、olution of all life in historyBthe ability of single cell organismsCthe way in which the tiny organisms are formedDthe similarity between the original cell and the bacteria63The original organisms mentioned in the passage can remain alive mainly under the condition of _.Atheir looking like one anoth

53、erBtheir ability to stay in colder waterChaving no food problemDbeing stronger than others64What does the writer mean by “the underlined sentence”？AThe special functions of the cells in the human body.BThe complicated structure of the human body.CCells are becoming specialized in function.DThe way i

54、n which the cells reproduced themselves.65Which of the following has helped the development of human beings?AThe improved intelligence.BThe division of male and female.CThe migration from the ocean to the land.DThe senses of seeing and hearing.CAll living things contain carbon.They also contain smal

55、l amounts of carbon14，a radioactive variety of carbon.Using carbon14，scientists can determine the age of wood and clothingin fact，anything that was once alive.Dating an object by means of carbon14 is called radiocarbon dating.Radiocarbon dating is used to date objects up to 50 000 years old.The rate

56、 at which a radioactive element breaks down is described by its halflife.An elements halflife is the time in which half the elements atoms break down.Carbon14 has a halflife of about 5500 years.This means that about 5500 years after a plant or animal dies，half the carbon14 atoms present at the time

57、of death are left.After 11 000 years one quarter of the original carbon14 atoms are left，and so on.Suppose an old piece of wood is found in an ancient tomb.In the lab it can be heated and turned to carbon，or burned to give off various gases，including carbon dioxide.The carbon or the carbon dioxide c

58、ontains a few carbon14 atoms.These atoms of carbon14 are breaking down.With each breakdown a tiny particle(粒子)is sent speeding out of the atom.The carbon or the carbon dioxide is placed in sensitive(灵敏的)instrumentcalled a Geiger counterwhich detects(查出)the particles given off by the atoms of carbon1

59、4 in the sample.Scientists know how much carbon14 is contained in an equal amount of wood from a living tree.From the amount of carbon14 left in the ancient sample，scientists can tell its age.66C14 can be found _.Ain anything that is living Bin all the dead thingsConly in some living things Din anyt

62、passage is for dating an ancient object.70Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?AAll Living Things Contain CarbonBHow to Tell a Trees AgeCCarbon14DCarbon14 and TreesDNo one can believe that the over 6300kilometer Great Wall might disappear some day.Believe it or not，the Grea

63、t Wall is being destroyed by people.Less than 20 percent of the Great Wall built in the Ming Dynasty，is still perfect，but about 80 percent is in danger.The Great Wall can be called “great” mostly because of its amazing length.But we should realize that the length was made up of one brick at a time.I

64、f we do nothing to save the Great Wall，it will become a series of separate wasteland rather than a historic site.The Great Wall is actually a series of walls built and rebuilt by different dynasties over the past 2000 years.It began in the rule of Chinas first emperor，Qin Shihuang of the Qin Dynasty

65、(221 BC206 BC)，and lasted into the Ming Dynasty.The parts built before the Ming Dynasty have nearly disappeared.People are familiar with sections such as Badaling in Beijing and Jiayuguan Pass in Gansu，because they have been open to tourists for many years.But those_sections_far_away_from_the_public

66、_eyes have been almost forgotten.Few local people knew the 3metrehigh walls made of earth and stones beside them are part of the Great Wall.The lack of knowledge is considered as one of the main reasons behind human.The bricks on the Great Wall are carried off by countryside people to build their ho

67、uses，sheep corrals and pigsties.Some were taken away to build roads.Bricks carved with peoples names are put away as remembrances.Rubbish is spread over the battlements.The bricks can be sold for 15 yuan per tractor load.Those who destroyed and are destroying the Wall know its name，but are not clear

68、 about its cultural meaning.It will take a long time to let them know this.The local farmers not only carried off the body of the Wall but also dug out the entire base.It is necessary to protect the Great Wall.First of all，the officials should be aware of the importance of the Great Wall.Young Chine

69、se should know more about the nations great civilization and learn to love it.71Why does the writer say the Great Wall might disappear?AIt is useless from now on.BIt will be replaced by a new one.CSome parts of it are being destroyed.DIt is too old to be used again.72According to the passage，which o

76、大而改掉”。句意：Helen过去一直很害羞，但现在已经不那样了。答案：D22解析：how many 后面必须跟可数名词的复数形式。答案：D23解析：考查代词。 that指代前文的approach。答案：D24解析：本题考查时态的用法。根据at present now 可知，应用一般现在时；且主语为one of.，故选A项。答案：A25解析：本题考查动词时态和语态。选项D用现在完成时，表示某一动作从过去到现在一直进行或反复发生。题干中前半部分动词like用的是现在时，表示与现在有关的动作，后半部分的时间状语many times表示某个动作反复发生，因此，该空应用现在完成时。答案：D26解析：考查

77、名词词意辨析。consequence“结果”；construction“建筑”；consideration“考虑”；conscience“良心”。句意：“我听说又有一种牌子的奶粉被禁止了。有些厂家缺乏社会责任感和道德，真是无耻。”根据句意，选D项。答案：D27解析：本题考查时态的用法。up till nowso far“到目前为止”，是现在完成时的标志；根据语境可知我们的时间正在丧失殆尽，所以后一空应用现在进行时。答案：A28解析：be impressed on.“给留下印象”。答案：D29解析：句意：由于不知道新的车速限制，他被拦住了，并因超速而被罚款。be unaware of “不知道”

78、。答案：C30解析：句意：有时戴墨镜是为了保护眼睛不受到阳光的伤害。 protect.from意为“保护不受伤害”；prevent.from意为“阻止发生”。答案：D 31解析：句意：即使在中国，要改善妇女的生活好像仍然有很多事情去做。没有it looks that这一句型；in my opinion后面不能跟句子；it is sure后面一般不用that引导的从句，但可以接不定式。答案：B32解析：句意：虽然我们感到有点累，但我们还是爬到了山顶上，那儿的风景很美，总之，我们玩得很高兴。all in all“总的说来”；in a word“总之，一句话”；strictly speaking“严

79、格地说”。所以A、B两项都符合句意。答案：D33解析：考查强调句型。句意：是在当地导游的帮助下，那位登山者才获救的。It is/was被强调部分that/who是强调结构，当被强调的不是“人”时，只能用that。答案：B34解析：考查介词短语词义辨析。in favor of“支持，赞同”；in search of“搜寻”；in honor of“纪念”；in charge of“负责”。句意：大部分人支持房价下调，因为对大多数人来说，房价太高了。答案：A35解析：句意：他在当地中学接受的教育，之后又上了北京大学。此处which引导非限制性定语从句，指代前面一整件事；that不可引导非限制性定语

80、从句。答案：A36解析：date back to“追溯到”；begin with“首先”；come up to“达到”； look forward to“盼望着”。根据句意和上下文，应该是追溯到15 000年前。答案：A37解析：shelter “遮蔽物”；room “房间”；cave “山洞”；hole “洞”。根据上下文应该是在雨中找遮蔽物，其他信息不足。答案：A38解析：这里find是名词，“发现”。答案：D39解析：known as“作为而出名”。答案：B40解析：design“设计”；produce“生产”，bury“埋”；discover“发现”。根据下段提示，选C项。答案：C41

81、解析：while这里表示“在期间”。 Yan Qingbao在挖洞时发现了一个圆形的翡翠。答案：B42解析：“受好奇心的驱使”，用driven表被动。其他选项均不符合句意。答案：D43解析：at the time “当时”(指发现遗址的时候); all the time “一直”；at the same time “同时”；in no time “即刻”。根据上下文，选C项。答案：C44解析：wonder“奇迹”；place“地方”；invention“发明”；people“人们”。从下文的Great Wall和pyramids看出，他并不知道他的发现是和Great Wall和pyramids
