It is the address of the White House, the home of the president of the United States. Originally the White House was gray and was called the presidential Palace. It was built from 1792 to 1800. At this time, the city of Washington itself was being built. It was to be the nations new capital city. George Washington, the first president, and Pierre Charles LEnfant, a French engineer, chose the place for the new city. LEnfant then planned the city. The presidents home was an important part of the plan. A contest was held to pick a design for the presidents home. An architect named James Hoban won. He designed a large three-story house of gray stone. President Washington never lived in the Presidential Palace. The first president to live there was John Adams, the second president of the United States, and his wife Mrs.Adams did not really like her new house. In her letters, she often complained about the cold. Fifty fireplaces were not enough to keep the house warm. In 1812 the United States and Britain went to war. In 1814 the British invaded Washington. They burned many buildings, including the Presidential Palace. 高三英语第二次月考试卷第 5 页 共 12 页 After the war James Hoban, the original architect, partially rebuilt the presidents home.

It is one of useful plants that can be prepared in many ways. It has rich nutrition(营养) and vitamin in it. But in the 18th century, Americans never ate tomatoes. They grew them in their gardens because tomato plants are so pretty. But they thought the vegetable was poisonous(有毒 的). They called tomatoes “poison apples”. President Thomas Jefferson, however, knew that tomatoes were good to eat. He was a learned man. He had been to Paris, where he learned to love the taste of tomatoes. He grew many kinds of tomatoes in his garden. The President taught his cook a way for a cream of tomato soup. This beautiful pink soup was served at the President party. The guests thought the soup tasted really good. They never thought their president would serve his honored guests poison apples. Jefferson never spoke to his honored guests about the fact. 61.

C It is natural that children are curious (好奇的) about the world around them. For example, they want to know how their hearts beat. They want to know why the ocean water tastes salty. As children grow up, they become curious about different kinds of things. When they are babies, they are interested in the parts of their bodies and in the smiles of their mothers. They become interested in the physical world around them: the plants, the animals, the sky. Later, they become interested in the things that people have made: wheels, bicycles, cars. And when they are adults, their curiosity continues. Sometimes this curiosity leads to a career (生涯、职业) in science. Scientists spend their lives trying to find out about the worldThose who work with the earth sciences study the earth, the oceans, and the skies. Other scientists who study living things work with the biological sciences. A third group of scientists study the physical sciences, e. g. physics, chemistry . These scientists have already discovered a lot about our worldFor example, they tell us why your heart beats fast when you run. They say that when you are quiet, your heart normally beats sixty-five or seventy-five times a minute. Your heart is a pump (泵) that pumps blood to all parts of the body. The blood carries oxygen and nutrition. When you run, your muscles work very hard and use the nutrition that the blood carries to them. The muscles need oxygen, too . So your brain sends a signal to the heart. The signal means that the muscles need more nutrition and oxygen. Then the heart beats fast and sends blood quickly to the muscles. It may beat 90 to 140 times a minute. Of course, scientists cannot answer all of our questions. If we ask, “Why does the ocean water taste salty” scientists will say that the salt comes from rocks. When a rock gets very hot or very cold, it cracks. Rain falls into cracks. The rain then carries the salt into the earth and into the 高三英语第二次月考试卷第 7 页 共 12 页 rivers. The rivers carry the salt into the ocean. But then we ask , “What happens to the salt in the ocean? The ocean does not get saltier every year.” Scientists are not sure about the answer to this question. We know a lot about our world, but there are still many answers that we do not have, and we are curious. 66According to the passage, which of the following statements is true? APeople are curious in the same way. BPeople in different countries are interested in different things. CMen and women are curious about different things. DPeople of different ages are interested in different things 67Scientists who work with the biological sciences study_. Athe earth , the oceans and the sky Bman-made things Cplants and animals Docean water 68When you run, your muscles need _. Amore signals Bmore nutrition and oxygen Cmore salt Dwater 69A rock cracks _. Ain wet regions Bin dry regions Cat very high or very low temperatures Dwhen salty water falls in 70People are always curious because _. Athey cannot explain many things Bthey know nothing about the world Cthey know little about the world Dthey want to be scientists D Safety and Security Procedures Your safety and the security of your personal property are of the primary concern to those of us who welcome you as our guest.
