Londoners often give the impre

28、ssion of being reserved.But The News York Times recently issued a report headlined True Londoners Are Extinct. What defines a Londoner exactly? The criteria can be tricky. The newspaper discovered that over the last decade, the foreign-born population in London reached 2.6 million, about a third of

29、the citys population. “Foreigners cant be Londoners,” a British political campaigner told the newspaper. A true Londoner would never support Manchester United, the newspaper quoted a man in a pub. Fair enough, since one has four other top league clubs to choose from, you must be too ignorant to be a

30、 Londoner.Next issue is where you live. There are those who believe that true Londoners are cockneysthose who were born within earshot of Bow Bells. The oddest claim of all was from a pub goer: “A real Londoner would never, never, ever, eat at one of those bloody Angus steakhouses in the West End. T

31、hats how you tell.”Indeed, London is a city “prejudiced” with directions. You quickly discover which part of the city suits your temperament. West London, one woman said to The New York Times, was too “brittle” for her. But the West End is the place where the noble accent was born along with shoppin

32、g malls and top flight residential estates. South Londoners hate going north. North Londoners forget theres a south beyond the South Bank. East London is close to the port and the site of early industrial development. Its often considered one of the poorest areas in the city. “You cant cut the preju

33、dice out of London,” a university student said to the newspaper. But it is this uneasy charm that gives the city its unique dynamic. 51. The author thinks the claims of who are true Londoners are .A. special B. strangeC. misleading D. creative52. If a Londoner supports Manchester United, he will be

34、considered .A. honest B. tricky C. tolerant D. ignorant53. Which of the following is an opinion rather than a fact?A. There are four other top football league clubs in London.B. The West End occupies some Angus steakhouses.C. True Londoners are cockneys born within earshot of Bow Bells.D. East Londo

35、n is close to the port and the site of early industry.BRed squirrels have been wiped out from a large area of northern Italy, threatening a further biodiversity crisis for the species similar to its near extinction in the British Isles.There are now no red squirrels left in an area of more than 1,15

36、0 square kilometres (sq km) in Piedmont, according to research from the universities of Turin, Genoa and Varese. On the edge of this large region, the species is also under threat from the invasions of grey squirrels.If the spread of the grey squirrel continues uncontrolled, the species could spread

37、 as far as France, the scientists fear. They are calling for more research and control and conservation measures aimed at preserving the remaining red squirrel populations and containing the spread of the greys.Grey squirrels were introduced into Italy relatively recently, in 1948. They were a gift

38、from the US ambassador and kept in Turin, but escaped into the wild and rapidly colonized the surrounding area despite warnings from the UK, where importing grey squirrels was forbidden from before the Second World War, when the destructive effects of having imported greys in the 1880s had become cl

39、ear.Grey squirrels are not only more aggressive than the native European red squirrel, which causes them to invade red-dominated areas and take over, but they also carry a deadly virus, the squirrel pox. While greys are largely immune to the virus, it is deadly to red squirrels, which typically die

40、within one or two weeks of being infected.From only four animals in 1948, at Stupinigi near Turin, the greys spread rapidly in recent years. Until 1970 the distribution of greys was limited to the Stupinigi woods, occupying an area of about 12 sq km. By 1990 this area had expanded to more than 200 s

41、q km, stretching mainly southwards into the Cuneo province.By 2000, grey squirrels occupied 900 sq km and this year, fresh research from the three universities shows that their distribution now extends to more than 2,000 sq km. In more than half of that area, the native reds have been entirely wiped

42、 out, and in the remainder they are under severe threat.54. The best title for this passage should be .A. Red squirrels and grey squirrels are distributed unequallyB. Red squirrels and grey squirrels struggle hardC. Red squirrel populations are wiped out in Northern Italy D. The invasion of foreign

43、species has a deep influence55. Red squirrels are nearly extinct in Northern Italy as a result of .A. the invasion of grey squirrelsB. the biodiversity crisisC. the similar extinction in the British Isles D.being weaker than other animals56. Grey squirrels .A. were found to have destructive effects

44、in the 1880sB. were set free to the wild by people in TurinC. were forbidden to be imported to the UK from before the Second World WarD.were brought to Italy as a gift to the US ambassador57. Which of the following about red squirrels is wrong?A. They die out in a 1,150 sq km of Piedmont.B. They cou

45、ld spread as far as France.C. They often die of a virus that is introduced by grey squirrels.D. They call for more research and control and conservation.CFew, if any, instruments shape national culture more powerfully than the materials used in schools. Textbooks are not only among the first books m

46、ost people meet; in many places they are, along with religious texts, almost the only books they have. A study in South Africa showed that fewer than half of pupils had access to more than ten books at home. In 2010 a study by Egypts government found that, apart from school textbooks, 88% of Egyptia

47、n households read no books.The degree to which a government keeps control of the textbooks used in classrooms is a good guide to its commitment to ideological(意识形态) control. Where that desire is strong, governments are likely to produce the textbooks themselves or define carefully what goes into the

48、m.Americas State Department employs people to keep an eye on other countries textbooks, in an effort to understand better how their people think and what their governments want them to think. Other countries probably do the same.Textbooks have long been a source of worry. After the attacks on Americ

49、a on September 11th 2001, some in both America and Saudi Arabia, including officials, supposed that Saudi Arabias curriculum of intolerance was responsible, at least in part, for the emergence of al-Qaeda (基地组织). Sometimes the requirements of the state are more clearly seen in what textbooks leave o

50、ut. The world has long criticized Japan for the way its textbooks whitewash the countrys history, in particular dressing up Japanese war crimes. The “New History Textbook”, for example, which was submitted for government approval in 2000, played down Japans aggression in the Sino-Japanese war of 189

51、4-95 and the occupation of China in the 1930s and 1940s, and avoided mention of the use of sex slaves by its armies or the rape of Nanjing. In America most of the disputes about textbooks are home-grown. Liberals worry that their children are being taught a nationalistic version of history that emph

52、asizes the wonders of industrialization and plays down slavery and the killing of Indian tribes. By contrast, Conservatives complain about inadequate education of love for their country and too much secularism (政教分离论). In 2010 the Texas board of education managed to remove Thomas Jefferson, author o

53、f the Declaration of Independence, from the states list of important revolutionary figures, apparently because of Jeffersons insistence on the separation of church and state. He was, however, swiftly restored.As long as textbooks are issued or approved by the state, they will remain a political issu

54、e. But as access to other textbooks is enjoyed more widely, some of the dominance they now enjoy will weaken. 58. The authors purpose of writing this passage is .A. to inform the readers of present practices of textbooksB. to present his findings of the importance of textbooksC. to argue against the

55、 government in the control of textbooksD. to explore the contribution of the government to textbooks59. Governments will probably produce the textbooks themselves and decide the contents when .A. governments hope to reform educationB. people have strong desire to readC.governments expect to understa

56、nd people betterD. governments want to control ideology60. Which of the following is not included in the textbooks of relevant countries?A. Japanese war crimes in Japanese textbooks.B. Curriculum of intolerance in Saudi Arabia.C. Thomas Jefferson in Texas present textbooks.D. Wonders of industrializ

57、ation in American textbooks61. While talking about textbooks, the author seems to think that .A. home-grown disputes are easier to settleB. they should be controlled by the governmentC. they are not necessarily soD. they should be a political issueDThe later part of the 20th century saw its share of

58、 strange financial bubbles（泡沫）. There was the real-estate bubble, the stock market bubbles, and the .com bubble, just to name a few. In each instance people paid huge amounts for things that shouldnt have been worth anything like the going price. And each time people stood around afterwards and said

59、 “What were we thinking?”Actually the same thought occurred to the Dutch in the 17th century. As much as the tulip（郁金香） is associated with Holland, it is not native there. Rather it was introduced in 1593 by a botanist named Carolus Clusius, who brought it from Turkey. He planted a small garden, int

60、ending to research the plant for medicinal purposes. Had Clusiuss neighbors been morally upright, the tulip might still be a rare foreign plant in the gardening world. Instead they broke into his garden and stole some of his tulip in order to make some quick money, and in the process started the Dut

61、ch tulip trade.Over the next several decades tulips became a craze among the rich of Holland, and prices began to rise. Soon even ordinary bulbs were selling for extraordinary prices, and the actually rare bulbs were extremely large. Here is an example of how many useful items it cost to buy one sin

62、gle tulip bulb: four tons of wheat, eight tons of rye, one bed, four oxen, eight pigs, 12 sheep, one suit of clothes, two casks of wine, four tons of beer, two tons of butter, 1,000 pounds of cheese and one silver drinking cup. The height of the bubble was reached in the winter of 1636-37. Tulip tra

63、ders were making fortunes regularly. A good trader could earn up to 60,000 florins in a month- approximately $61,710 in current U.S. dollars. With profits like those to be had, nothing local governments could do stopped the passion of trading. Then one day in Haarlem a buyer failed to show up and pa

64、y for his bulb purchase. The coming panic spread across Holland, and within days tulip bulbs were worth only a hundredth of their former prices. The tulip bubble had burst.Looking back through time its easy to laugh at the foolish Dutch, paying such prices for simple tulip bulbs, but an economic bub

65、ble was nothing new even then. Were still doing the same sorts of things today. 62. The author wrote the passage .A. to analyze the cause of the tulip bubbleB. to share the information about tulipsC. to present his study of the 17th-century HollandD. to warn us to reflect on economic bubbles63. It c

66、an be inferred from the 2nd paragraph that .A. Clusiuss neighbors were morally not honestB. Carolus Clusius planted tulips for medical purposesC. the tulip is a common flower in the gardenD. the tulip is much associated with Holland64. In which of the following period did tulip traders find it easie

67、st to make money?A. From Nov. 25 to Dec. 1. B. From Nov. 12 to Nov. 25.C. From Dec. 12 to Feb. 3.D. From Dec. 1 to Dec. 12.65.

68、ow its huge potentialEThe Greeks had long kept certain more or less formal relations with the people of Macedonia（马其顿）. The Macedonians from their side had kept themselves well informed about conditions in Greece. Now it happened, just when Sparta and Athens had finished their disastrous war, that M

69、acedonia was ruled by an extraordinarily clever man named Philip. He admired the Greek spirit but he looked down on the Greek lack of self-control in political affairs. It angered him to see a perfectly good people waste its men and money upon fruitless quarrels. So he settled the difficulty by maki

70、ng himself the master of all Greece and then he asked his new subjects to join him on a voyage which he meant to pay to Persia in return for the visit which Xerxes had paid the Greeks 150 years before. Unfortunately Philip was murdered before he could start this well-prepared expedition（远征）. The tas

71、k of avenging(报仇) the destruction of Athens was left to Philips son Alexander, the beloved pupil of Aristotle, wisest of all Greek teachers. Alexander left Europe in the spring of 334 BC. Seven years later he reached India. In the meantime he had destroyed Phoenicia（腓尼基，地中海古国）, the old rival of the

72、Greek merchants. He had conquered Egypt and had been worshipped by the people of the Nile valley as the son and heir of the Pharaohs(法老). He had defeated the last Persian king - he had overthrown the Persian Empire, he had given orders to rebuild Babylon - he had led his troops into the heart of the

73、 Himalayan mountains and had made the entire world a Macedonian province and dependency. Then he stopped and announced even more ambitious plans. The newly formed Empire must be brought under the influence of the Greek mind. The people must be taught the Greek language - they must live in cities bui

74、lt after a Greek model. The Alexandrian soldier now turned school-master. The military camps of yesterday became the peaceful centres of the newly imported Greek civilisation. Higher and higher did the flood of Greek manners and Greek customs rise, when suddenly Alexander was stricken with a fever a

75、nd died in the old palace of King Hammurabi of Babylon in the year 323BC. His Empire did not long survive him. A number of ambitious generals divided the territory among themselves. But they too remained faithful to the dream of a great world brotherhood of Greek and Asiatic ideas and knowledge. The

76、y maintained their independence until the Romans came. B. India became an independent part of Macedonia.C. The Persian Empire was overturned. D. Egypt was conquered by the Pharaohs.70. We can guess that Alexanders most ambitious plan after 327 BC was .A. to distribute the territory among the general
