city when the eruption had eased，dug down through the _18_ of their buried homes.the _19_ they drove through the solidified ash can still be seen in places.but a time came _20_ pompeii and herculaneum were forgotten.throughout the middle ages these two buried cities were not disturbed，and it was not until 1709 _21_ an austrian prince sank a shaft at herculaneum and then, by _22_ of underground tunnels，robbed the city of its treasures.in 1729 systematic excavation began on the _23_ site，but king charles of naples merely excavated the site to _24_ archaeological specimens(考古标本)for his collection.a few years later，an accidental find at pompeii led to excavations there；at first by tunneling，but afterwards by the actual uncovering of the city.from the end of the _25_ century to the present day，digging has gone on _26_ continuously，though slowly，and often with _27_ resources.perhaps this slowness has not been entirely a _28_，since it has resulted in large，untouched sections of both cities being left _29_ for modern，scientific excavation._30_ techniques have improved so much in the last fifty years that a site can now reveal far more archaeological _31_ than before. today most of _32_ and a substantial section of herculaneum have been cleared.they are the best known archaeological sites in _33_，and the most wonderful.for here，and nowhere else on earth，are ancient cities in which life did not die out but was suddenly _34_. “behind these walls，”as one writer has said，“lies an _35_ italian town，stilled in a moment of time.to enter the gates of this city is to walk 2,000 years into the past.”16a.destroyedbrepairedcbuilt didentified17. aexplanation bexcavationscpronunciation daffection18a.believes breliefcroofs dbottoms19. atunnel broomcarea dtop20. awhen

the remains of the past.the ship construction showed how ships were built and operated during the seventeenth century.in this way，artifacts(史前古器物)，objects made by human beings，provided a picture of daily life almost 400 years ago.underwater archaeologythe study of ships，aircraft(航行器) and human settlements that have sunk under large bodies of wateris really a product of the last 50 years.the rapid growth of this new area of study has occurred because of the invention of better diving equipment.besides the swedish ship wreck(残骸)，underwater archaeologists have made more exciting discoveries such as the 5,000yearold boats in the mediterranean sea.underwater archaeology can provide facts about the past.in ancient ports all over the world are ships sunk in the past 6,000 years.there are also sunken settlements in seas and lakes telling of peoples way of life and their systems of trade in ancient times.underwater archaeologists want to study these objects to add to the worlds knowledge of history，but they have to fight two enemies. one enemy is treasure hunters who dive for ancient artifacts that they can sell to collectors.once sold，these objects are lost to experts.the second enemy is dredging machines(挖掘机)often used to repair ports.these machines destroy wrecks and artifacts or bury them deeper under sand and mud.by teaching the public about the importance of underwater “museums” of the past，archaeologists are hoping to get support for laws to protect underwater treasures.36what purpose does paragraph 1 serve in the passage?ato provide background information of the topic.bto attract readers attention to the topic.cto use an example to support the topic.dto offer basic knowledge of the topic.37the aim of underwater archaeology is to _.aexploit water bodiesbsearch for underwater lifecstudy underwater artifactsdexamine underwater environment38what is the main purpose of the passage?ato introduce a young branch of learning.bto discuss the scientists problems.cto explain peoples way of life in the past.dto describe the sunken ships.39who are the two enemies that underwater archaeologists have to fight?atreasure hunters and warships.btreasure hunters and dredging machines.cfishermen and whales.ddredging machines and whales.bremote medicine is an aspect of medical technology that has been steadily developing in recent times.remote medicine can be defined as experts helping to treat patients in remote areas by using highend telecommunication systems.sometimes physicians have to perform surgery on patients using robotic arms through these highend telecommunication systems.doctors in remote areas can purchase emergency medical supplies and first aid kits required for remote medicine treatment from popular online stores.surgery has been performed successfully in many cases through remote medicine. sometimes it is neither practical nor financially possible for the sick or injured to travel to developed nations for their medical treatment.thanks to remote medicine，people in remote areas can get treatment from experts without having to travel.although it is useful for patients across the globe，it could be difficult in certain cases to do due to problems with access，supplies and knowledge of local professionals.doctors believe the biggest barrier is the difficulty in building a close relationship between doctors and patients because of the computermediated virtual communication.however，with lack of specialists in intensive care units in many rural areas across the globe，remote medicine provides a helping hand in monitoring and treating critical patients.remote medical technology is only as good as the supplies on hand.putting this technology into practice requires people in remote areas to have relevant emergency medical kits and emergency medical supplies to treat patients.chinook medical gear is a very popular online store that offers a wide range of emergency medical supplies，medical kits，first aid kits，and containers that are specifically designed to be used in remote areas during emergency situations.this online store also ships emergency medical supplies that assist field doctors to those remote areas.people involved in remote medical treatment can now be assured that they will receive wellstocked first aid kits as soon as possible from this online store.40according to the passage，remote medicine refers to _.amedicine sent to patients living in remote areasbtreatment given to patients by doctorscemergency medical supplies and first aid kits bought from online storesdtreatment given to patients in remote areas through a highend telecommunication system41according to the doctors，the biggest difficulty of remote medicine is a lack of _.aenough emergency medical kitsbspecialists in intensive care unitsca close link between doctors and patientsdknowledge of local professionals42it is implied in paragraph 3 that remote medicine _.aneeds the help of relevant equipmentbhas been widely used across the globecis more important than specialistsddoesnt help much in rural areas43whats the last paragraph mainly about?athe correct ways of using emergency medical supplies.bthe importance of relevant equipment in remote medicine.can introduction to how field doctors use medical supplies.da store that offers things used in remote medicine.cimagine living for a week in a little french cottage，buying fresh vegetables from the farmers market every morning，sipping(小口泯)coffee，and taking day trips to neighboring villages.sound appealing？thats the magic of slow travel，where the emphasis (重点)is less on sightseeing and more on taking in your surroundings at a relaxed pace.slow travel is a branch of the slow food movement，which began in italy in the 1980s as a protest(抗议)against the opening of a mcdonalds in rome.the slow food movement aims to preserve regional cooking，local farming，and traditional food preparation methods.this cultural idea has since developed into a whole way of life known as the slow movement，which emphasizes connection to food and families and，in the case of travel，connection to local people and cultures.slow travel is not so much a particular mode of transportation as it is an attitude. rather than attempting to put as many sights or cities as possible into each trip，the slow traveler takes time to explore each destination thoroughly and to experience the local culture. as pauline kenny says，“slow travelers assume that they do not have to see everything on one trip，that there will be other trips.”the clearest advantage of slow travel is reflected in the general nature of your trip.traveling more slowly allows you to form a stronger connection to the place youre visiting，and youll feel much less rushed.another less clear advantage of slow travel is that its generally much easier on the environment than other types of travel.while airplanes have recently been considered as major contributors to global warming, trains are a much more ecofriendly choiceas are bikes and，of course，your own two feet!slow travel is often kinder to your budget as well.staying in one place for a week or more at a time reduces your transportation costs，and vacation rentals(度假出租屋) are often cheaper than hotels since they allow you to cook your own food instead of eating out for every meal.44what do we know about slow travel?ait mainly uses slow means of transportation.bit encourages you to take time to enjoy your stay.cit encourages a new and calm lifestyle.dit is mainly connected with local food.45from what pauline said in paragraph 3，we can infer that slow travelers _.aprefer to make friends with local peoplebthink it less important to know an area wellchave something left to see on the next tripdtry to put as many sights as possible into one trip46the purpose of this passage is _.ato introduce a way of travelbto introduce a new way of lifecto compare different kinds of traveldto show how traveling affects our lifedthere are many scientists that study people who often lived hundreds or even thousands of years ago.we call them anthropologists.items those primitive men，women，and children left behind when they diedeverything from clothing to jewelry and toolstell anthropologists a lot.and sometimes even their words survive.experts believe that a discovery in mexico is the oldest example of writing ever found in america.the people who created it probably lived 3,000 years ago，long before christopher columbus arrived in the new world.workers digging in a rock mine happened to notice a stone block with marks carved onto its surface.they found the large piece of stone near the city of cascajal，mexico，which was once the capital of an ancient people called the olmec.“there are signs on the block that seem to show objects used by the olmec during their religious ceremonies，”says dr stephen houston，of brown university in the us.“there is a sign that looks very similar to a knife and another that looks like the chair of a king，”he explains.houston，an expert on the writing systems of ancient cultures，says the discovery is exciting because “it makes clear that the olmec could read and write.it is like hearing voices from the past.”but experts dont know exactly what the writing says.finding other examples of olmec writing could help decipher_the_puzzle.“we could have whole sets of ancient writing which will basically make ancient people speak to us directly，”says houston.“there are many puzzles to be solved，and this is just one of them.”47according to the passage，in order to learn more about the past，what items do scientists often use?aknives and chairs.bbooks and stones.cpeople and animals.dclothing and jewelry.48why are scientists interested in ancient languages?abecause they can learn stories told during that time.bbecause they can speak directly with ancient people.cbecause it can allow them to understand ancient societies better.dbecause it will help learn about the origins of modern languages.49which of the following can replace the underlined expression in paragraph 6?afind the meaning of the olmec language.bdiscover when the olmec people lived.clearn why the olmec civilization disappeared.dlearn how to speak olmec.50which is probably the best title for the passage?anew language discoveredbworlds first bookcoldest writing in the new worlddwhat does it say?.阅读填句(共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分)in order to help children learn to use an english dictionary，youll obviously need to have one on
