A In 1993 the Metropolitan Museum of Art unwillingly handed over 363 pieces of gold silver precious stones paintings and sculptures back to Turkey after a court case Following increasing calls for the return of artistic objects that were removed decades or centuries ago some of the world s leading museums have signed a declaration that they will not hand back the ancient artifacts to their countries of origin They say people all over the world have only been able to fully appreciate ancient civilizations because these museums have provided access to these artistic objects The ancient civilizations would not be so deeply admired today if these ancient artifacts were not so widely available to an international public in major museums throughout Europe and America For example Egyptian culture would not have become so well known if the museums had not put Egyptian mummies on show The British Museum has not signed the declaration but says it fully supports it Over the recent years it has faced growing pressure to hand back the Elgin Marbles sculptures taken from the Parthenon in Athens Greece in the 19th century But the British Museum has said that the Museum is the best possible place for them They must remain here if the museum is to continue to achieve its aim which is to show the world to the world said the director of the museum 61 What reason do the major museums provide for not handing back the ancient objects PDF 文件使用 pdfFactory Pro 试用版本创建 A Only in the leading museums can the objects be fully appreciated by the world B It is better for those objects to remain at a certain place than to be moved around C They need those well known ancient objects to attract people from all over the world D Ancient civilizations can only be admired if they are removed from their home countries 62 Which of the following is NOT mentioned as one of the countries of origin in the article A Turkey B Britain C Egypt D Greece 63 What does underlined the world mean in show the world to the world A The global village B The leading museums C The ancient civilizations D The international public B Many children first learn the value of money by receiving an allowance The purpose is to let children learn from experience at an age when financial mistakes are not very costly The amount of money that parents give to their children to spend as they wish differs from family to family Timing is another consideration Some children get a weekly allowance Others get a monthly allowance In any case parents should make clear what if anything the child is expected to pay for with the money At first young children may spend all of their allowance soon after they receive it If they do this they will learn the hard way that spending must be done within a budget Parents are usually advised not to offer more money until the next allowance The object is to show young people that a budget demands choices between spending and saving Older children may be responsible enough to save money for larger costs like clothing or electronics Many people who have written on the subject of allowances say it is not a good idea to pay your child for work around the home These jobs are a normal part of family life Paying children to do extra work around the house however can be useful It can even provide an understanding of how a business works Allowances give children a chance to experience the three things they can do with money They can share it in the form of gifts or giving it to a good cause They can spend it by buying things they want Or they can save it 64 What is special about children learning financial management by experience A They learn more quickly B They are not as likely to make mistakes C Their mistakes won t matter so much D They have plans made by their parents 65 When the writer says some young children will learn the hard way he means A they will know a budget is hard to carry out B they will have a hard time learning the lesson C what they will learn is absolutely true D their parents will teach them a hard lesson 66 Judging from the article it is all right if a couple gives their son an allowance A regularly every month B whenever he has run out of money C telling him to ask for permission before spending D without telling him what to spend on 67 The writer would agree to encourage the kids to to deal with a tight budget A borrow money from others B ask their parents for more money C get paid for their household routines D earn money by extra work 68 When a kid donates some of his allowance to wild animal protection he is A sharing it with others B giving it to a good cause C buying things for himself D saving for his future spending C Maybe ten year old Elizabeth put it best when she said to her father But Dad you can t be healthy if you re dead Dad in a hurry to get home before dark so he could go for a run had forgotten to wear his safety belt a mistake 75 of the US population make every day The big question is why There have been many myths about safety belts ever since their first appearance in cars some forty years ago The following are three of the most common PDF 文件使用 pdfFactory Pro 试用版本创建 Myth Number One It s best to be thrown clear of a serious accident Truth Sorry but any accident serious enough to throw you clear is also going to be serious enough to give you a very bad landing And chances are you ll have traveled through a windshield 挡风 玻璃 or door to do it Studies show that chances of dying after a car accident are twenty five times greater in cases where people are thrown clear Myth Number Two Safety belts trap people in cars that are burning or sinking in water Truth Sorry again but studies show that people knocked unconscious 昏迷 due to not wearing safety belts have a greater chance of dying in these accidents People wearing safety belts are usually protected to the point of having a clear head to free themselves from such dangerous situations not to be trapped in them Myth Number Three Safety belts aren t needed at speeds of less than 30 miles per hour Truth when two cars traveling at 30 mph hit each other an unbelted driver would meet the windshield with a force equal to diving headfirst into the ground from a height of 10 meters 69 Why did Elizabeth say to her father But Dad you can t be healthy if you re dead A He was driving at great speed B He was running across the street C He didn t have his safety belt on D He didn t take his medicine on time 70 The reason Father was in a hurry to get home was that he A wasn t feeling very well B hated to drive in the dark C wanted to take some exercise D didn t want to be caught by the police 71 According to the text to be thrown clear of a serious accident is very dangerous because you A may be knocked down by other cars B may get seriously hurt being thrown out of the car C may find it impossible to get away from the seat D may get caught in the car door 72 Some people prefer to drive without wearing a safety belt because they believe A the belt prevents them from escaping in an accident B they will be unable to think clearly in an accident C they will be caught when help comes D cars catch fire easily D Some animals have organs in their bodies that produce light When it is dark they flash their lights on and off to signal to others of their species to lure prey 引诱猎物 toward them or to escape from predators 捕食者 Some fish are found to produce light in the blackness of the sea When night falls over the Red Sea tiny flashlight fish rise to the surface for food each with a pair of headlamps one beneath each eye With the light produced by bacteria living there they communicate with other flashlight fish to avoid getting too close to each other so that the fish may spread out evenly to get enough food And if a flashlight fish is threatened by a predator it swims away in a zigzag path flashing its light on and off very quickly to confuse the animal pursuing it Certain land animals can also produce light Fireflies small beetles that live in many warmer parts of the world use light to attract a mate After darkness falls in some parts of North America female fireflies gather on the ground The males fly overhead flashing light from the undersides of their bodies As there are a number of species of firefly the males of each kind flash their own particular signal Recognizing the flashing code of her own species a female signals back to the male and he lands beside her On land as in the sea living lights can be deceiving 欺骗的 When they are

in the Red Sea give out light at night A when they come out for food B as they try to look for their companions C because they want to get rid of the bacteria D so that they can get close to other

following statements about fireflies is true A All kinds of fireflies use the same signals B Fireflies use their headlamps to communicate C Male fireflies may deceive females with false signals D

of Beijing women is usually bigger than Shanghai women s However it turns out to be just the other way round after I have worked in Beijing for some time Everybody goes Dutch 各自付帐 in Shanghai even at
