根据下面内容,回答题:

Many superstitious people are afraid of black cats. They believe that black cats have a strange power. If a black cat crosses their path, they think they will have bad luck.

Black cats haven"t always had such a bad reputation. Long ago, the Egyptians thought that black cats were holy animals. They even worshipped them. Pasht was an Egyptian goddess who had a woman"s body and a cat"s head. Because the Egyptians had so much respect for black cats, they often buried the sacred creatures with great ceremony. Mummies of cats have often been found in ancient cemetery ruins. To keep the cats company after they died, mice were sometimes buried beside them.

Feelings about black cats have always been strong. People have thought they were either very good or very bad. The people of Europe, in the Middle Ages, believed black cats were the evil friends of witches and the Devil. Witches were said to have the power to change themselves into black cats.

People believed that you could not tell whether a black cat was just a cat, or whether it was a witch disguising herself as she plotted some evil scheme. The brain of a black cat was thought to be a main ingredient in witch"s brew.

Unlike their ancestors of the Middle Ages, Englishmen today consider black cats to be good luck charms. Fishermen"s wives often keep a black cat around so that their husbands will be protected when they are out at sea.

The Egyptian goddess Pasht had a________. 查看材料

A.woman"s head and a cat"s body

B.woman"s head and a lion"s body

C.cat"s head and a man"s body

D.woman"s body and a cat"s head

根据下面内容,回答题: When another old cave is discovered in the south of France, it is no

根据下面内容,回答题:

When another old cave is discovered in the south of France, it is not usually news. Rather, it is an ordinary event. Such discoveries are so frequent these days that hardly anybody pays heed to them.

However,when the Lascaux cave complex was discovered in 1940,the world was amazed.

Painted directly on its walls were hundreds of scenes showing how people lived thousands of years ago. The scenes show people hunting animals, such as bison or wild cats. Other images depict birds and, most noticeably, horses, which appear in more than 300 wall images, by far outnumbering all other animals.

Early artists drawing these animals accomplished a monumental and difficult task. They did not limit themselves to the easity accessible walls but carried their painting materials to spaces that required climbing steep walls or crawling into narrow passages in the Lascaux complex.

Unfortunately, the paintings have been exposed to the destructive action of water and temperature changes,which easily wear the images away. Because the Lascaux caves have many entrances, air movement has also damaged the images inside.

Although they are not out in the open air, where natural light would have destroyed them long ago,many of the images have deteriorated and are barely recognizable. To prevent further damage,the site was closed to tourists in 1963,23 years after it was discovered.

Based on the passage,what is probably true about the south of France? 查看材料

A.It is home to rare animals.

B.It has a large number of caves.

C.It is known for horse-racing events.

D.It has attracted many famous artists.

根据下面内容,回答题:

Many of the problems we face today are not so new as we think they are. And some of our modern solutions are not so new, either. The problem of energy shortages and the solution of using solar energy go back at least to early Greek cultures. The climate in the coastal areas of Greece 2,500 years ago was characterized by cool winters, much as it is today. At that time, the Greeks heated their homes with small, charcoal-burning heaters. In other words, wood (which is used to make charcoal) was their primary source of energy.However, by the fifth century BC fuel shortages had become common because, in many parts of Greece, the firewood in the forests had been depleted. Once the supply of firewood from the local forests ran out, people began to use the wood from olive groves as fuel. But this solution had its own problem. It reduced the olive crop, a valuable resource to the Greeks. By the fourth century BC, the city of Athens banned the use of olive wood for fuel. Wood had to be imported from farther and farther away, making it more difficult to obtain and more expensive to use. About this time the Greeks began to build their houses facing south, so that the low sun in winter could penetrate and help heat the interiors. Excavations of ancient Greek cities suggest that large areas were planned so that individual homes could take maximum advantage of passive solar energy.

The word "depleted" means________. 查看材料

A.damaged

B.stolen

C.used up

D.discovered

根据下面内容,回答题:

Shoes are outer coverings for the foot. They have soles, and most have heels. The upper part of most shoes extend no higher than the ankle. Boots are footwear that reach beyond the ankle. People wear shoes to protect their feet from harsh weather, sharp objects, and uncomfortable surfaces. Shoes are also an important part of people"s clothing. As a result, fashion often determines the style. of shoes that individuals wear. The desire to be fashionable has led to many unusual shoe styles. In the 1300"s,many European men wore shoes called crackowes, which had an extremely long toe. From the 1300"s to the 1700"s, some European women wore shoes with really thick soles causing walking to be virtually impossible without support. Shoes once worn in the Orient were connected to a stilt(高跷) as high as six inches.

Traditionally, most shoes are made of leather. But many other materials are now used. Including canvas, velvet, and synthetic substances such as plastics. Footwear materials and style. vary somewhat,depending on climate, custom, or other differences. Farmers in Netherlands often wear heavy wooden shoes that protect their feet from the damp environment while Japanese wear shoes outside their home but prefer soft slippers at home. In fact, people in some regions often wear foot coverings other than shoes. Some wear sandals during the hot summer and switch to warm boots for the cold winter.

What is the main topic of the passage? 查看材料

A.The history of the shoes.

B.Shoes around the world.

C.The definition of shoes.

D.Shoes and fashion.

根据下面内容,回答题: Many children do not go to school either because their parents want

根据下面内容,回答题:

Many children do not go to school either because their parents want them at home as carers for siblings, or simply because their parents cannot be bothered to send them. Thousands more are not registered at any school at all, because of their families" unstable lives.

Underlying this dreadful situation there are two central truths. First of all, the problem of children not going to school often has more to do with their parents than with the children themselves. Secondly,once children go to school, we need to make sure that the experience is a positive one so that they want to keep on going.

In Britain, the Ministry of Education has introduced a complex package of sticks and carrots to persuade schools to bring truants (children who do not go to school when they should) and excluded children back into the classroom. It is paying grants so that a thousand schools can set up special units to help these children. Schools receive the grant if they bring a target number of children back to school; if they do not meet th:e target, the grant is withdrawn. Parents are the subject of this campaign, too: the Home Office has introduced fines for parents who fail to send their children to school, and has given the police power to pick up truants on the streets.

According to the text, there are thousands of children who________. 查看材料

A.live in stable families

B.walk around on the streets

C.are not registered at any school

D.stay at home doing the housework

根据下面内容,回答题:

The majority of people in Scotland are in favor breaking away from the rest of the UK and becoming independent, according to a poll taken just before the 300th anniversary of the Act of Union,which united Scotland and England.

A pair of Acts of Parliament, passed in 1706 and 1707 that came into effect on May 1,1707, created Great Britain. The parliaments of both countries were dissolved, and replaced by a new Parliament of Great Britain in Westminster, London.

The poll showed support for independence for Scotland is running at 51%. This is the first time since 1998 that support for separation has passed 50% , and the first time since devolution gave power to the country in 1999. Six months before elections for the Scottish Parliament, these poll results come as good news to the Scottish Nationalist Party, who are hoping to make progress against Labor and further the cause of an independent Scotland.

Many people have become disillusioned with devolution, and believe that the Scottish Parliament has failed to deliver what they had hoped it would; only a tenth has no opinion. In fact, only 39% of those polled want to keep things as they are.

Scotland and England________. 查看材料

A.were united by war

B.have always been united

C.want to break up the union

根据下面内容,回答题: We show an amazing tolerance for a form. of pollution that is a grow

根据下面内容,回答题:

We show an amazing tolerance for a form. of pollution that is a growing problem: noise. Airplane traffic is increasing by five percent a year. Urban noise is doubling every ten years. By air, land and sea, we are facing an onslaught of noise that is threatening our ability to live in this world.

We have granted ourselves the right to make noise. But what about our responsibilities? Have we developed a sense of acoustic responsibility?

The evidence suggests that we have not. Many people seem to believe they have an unlimited right to make noise with cars and motorbikes, and with loud music at home and in the street. In some countries measures have been taken to force people to make less noise. In Britain, for example, a law has been passed preventing people from disturbing their neighbors with music at night.

It is widely accepted that we should deal with our rubbish in a responsible way. Noise is in reality a particularly insidious (潜在的) form. ofrubbish. It destroys community life, pursues us into our homes, keeps us from sleeping and is the cause of many stress-related illnesses, as well as hearing loss.

Our acoustic environment belongs to all of us. Everyone has the right to use it, but no one has the right to abuse it. Let"s start using it responsibly.

The level of noise produced in cities and towns________. 查看材料

A.is four times higher every ten years

B.is four times lower every two years

C.is twice as high now than ten years ago

D.is twice as high now than two years ago
