the traditional form is still used today to mark buildings, ships and other vehicles related to a country.the national flag as we know it today is in no way a primitive artifact. it is, rather, the product of thousands of years development. historians believe that it had two major ancestors, of which the earlier served to show wind direction.early human beings used very fragile houses and boats. often strong winds would tear roofs from houses or cause high waves that endangered travelers. peoples food supplies were similarly vulnerable. even after they had learned how to plant grains, they still needed help from nature to ensure good harvests. therefore they feared and depended on the power of the wind, which could bring warmth from one direction and cold from another.using a simple piece of cloth tied to the top of a post to tell the direction of the wind was more dependable than earlier methods, such as watching the rising of smoke from a fire. the connection of the flag with heavenly power was therefore reasonable. early human societies began to fix long pieces of cloth to the tops of totems (图腾) before carrying them into battle. they believed that the power of the wind would be added to the good wishes of the gods and ancestors represented by the totems themselves.these flags developed very slowly into modern flags. the first known flag of a nation or a ruler was unmarked. the king of china around 1000 b.c. was known to have a white flag carried ahead of him. this practice might have been learned from egyptians even further in the past, but it was from china that it spread over trade routes through india, then across arab lands, and finally to europe, where it met up with the other ancestor of the national flag.41. the best title for the passage would be “_”.a. development of the national flagb. power of the national flagc. types of flagsd. uses of flags【答案】a【解析】标题归纳题。“it is, rather, the product of thousands of years development.”说明国旗是几千年发展的产物。而且整片文章从旗帜最初用于表示风向，一直讲到它演变为现代的旗帜。所以本文说的是国旗的发展。故选a。42. the underlined word “vulnerable” in paragraph 3 means _.a. impossible to make sure ofb. likely to be protectedc. easy to be damagedd. difficult to find【答案】c【解析】词义猜测题。本段第一句“early human beings used very fragile houses and boats.”说早期人类使用非常易坏的的房屋和船只。而本句 “peoples food supplies were similarly vulnerable.” 中“similarly”意为“同样地”，所以vulnerable”也表示“易损坏”。故选c。43. the earliest flags were connected with heavenly power because _.a. they could tell direction b. they could bring good luck to ancient fightersc. they were handed down by the ancestorsd. they were believed to stand for natural forces【答案】d【解析】细节理解题。本段第一句“using a simple piece of cloth tied to the top of a post to tell the direction of the wind was more dependable than earlier methods,”“用一块布系到标杆顶部来判断风向比早期的办法更可靠。”因此，最早的旗帜与天的力量有关。故选d。44. what does the author know of the first national flag?a. he knows when it was sent to europe.b. he believes it was made in egypt.c. he thinks it came from china.d. he doubts where it started.【答案】d【解析】细节理解题。最后一段“the first known flag of a nation or a ruler was unmarked.。”说明第一个国家的旗帜未被标明，所以作者不知道第一面国旗是从哪儿诞生的。45. what will the author most probably talk about next?a. the role of china in the spread of the national flag.b. the second ancestor of the national flag.c. the use of modern flags in europe.d. the importance of modern flags.【答案】b【解析】推理判断题。结尾处“this practice might have been learned from egyptians even further in the past, but it was from china that it spread over trade routes through india, then across arab lands, and finally to europe, where it met up with the other ancestor of the national flag.”说明中国国王树立旗帜的做法遍及到了贸易行路，通过印度，穿过阿拉伯大陆，最终到达欧洲。在那与另一个国旗的原型结合。所以，接下来最可能讨论的是过国旗的第二个始祖。故选b。4.短文改错文中共有10处语言错误，每句中最多有两处。错误涉及一个单词的增加、删除或修改。增加：在缺词处加一个漏字符号（），并在其下面写出该加的词。删除：把多余的词用斜线（）划掉。修改：在错的词下划一横线，并在该词下面写出修改后的词。注意：1每处错误及其修改仅限一词。2只允许修改10处，多者（从第11处起）不计分。this
