chose to go to a large school in another state in an attempt to never again see those popular girls, the ones who drove quiet girls like me headlong into the arms of dusty books. since i didnt know a soul at this university, i volunteered for a club to make friends. thats how i ended up one winter evening standing outside the student union, waiting for the nights famous speaker to drive up. my assignment was to escort (护送）her to the auditorium where her fans eagerly waited to hear maya angelou, author of i know why the caged bird sings. as showtime neared, angelous car pulled up. when its door opened, angelou and a female friend exited, each wearing head-to-toe fur coats. i nervously guided the pair inside. angelou was ready to sweep onstage, but first, there was her fur coat. i offered to babysit it backstage to make sure it was safe. “no,” she said. she looked out at the audience. “you need to get out there and live.” so i found a front-row seat and heard, for the first time, a book come alive in an authors own voice. the audience clapped and cheered as they went along on the ride of this performance. i wish i could say that my life changed then. but out of college, i went deeper into my interior self, taking a job that required little human contact. a few years later, i became a newspaper editor, which required talking to many people. for those times, i depended on index(索引) cards. but i reminded myself that angelou hadnt used notes. today, im in my 50s. i am speaking comfortably about what i really know to be true. i get out there now and live.24. what kind

the text?a. get out there and liveb. the night i met angelouc. speak from your inner selfd. my friendship with angeloucin 1769, william smith was born in a little town in oxfordshire, england. he received basic village schooling but mostly he wandered on his uncles farm collecting the fossils(化石) in the rocks of the cotswold hills. when he grew older, smith learned surveying from books and at 18 he learned from a local surveyor. he then began to teach himself geology (地质学) . when he was 24, he went to work for the company that was digging the somerset coal canal in the south of england. this job gave smith an opportunity to study the fresh strata(地层) created by the newly dug canal. he later worked on similar jobs across england all the while studying strata and collecting all the fossils he could find. smith used mail coaches to travel 10 ,000 miles per year. in 1815 he published the first modern geological map a map of the strata of england and wales with a part of scotland. in 1831 when smith was recognized by the geological society of london as the “father of english geology”, it was not only for his maps but also for something even more important. people had hoped strata could be used to calculate(计算出) geological time, but scientists found the sequences(顺序) of rocks sometimes differed from area to area and that no rock type was ever going to become a dependable time marker. even without the problem of regional differences, rocks present a difficulty as unique time markers. quartz(石英) is quartz; theres no difference between two-million-year-old quartz and quartz created over 500 million years ago. as he collected fossils from strata, smith noticed the fossils told a different story from the rocks. particularly in the younger strata, the rocks were often so similar that he had trouble distinguishing(区别) the strata, but he never had trouble telling the fossils apart. some fossils appear in many strata, but others occur only in a few strata, and a few species had their births and extinctions(灭绝) within one particular strata. fossils are thus identifying markers for particular periods in earths history.28. what do we know about young smith?a. he spent most of his time reading.b. he showed much interest in geology.c. he learned surveying just by himself.d. he received a v舒中高一统考英语 第5页 (共10页)舒中高一统考英语 第6页 (共10页)ery good formal education.29. which can be used to describe smith according to paragraph 2?a. adventurous and brave.b. talented and productive.c. warm-hearted and honest.d. hard-working and devoted.30. the author mentions quartz to show that_.a. no rock can be a reliable time markerb. no quartz can be found in recent timesc. quartz can fell people rocks, geological timed. the sequences of rocks differ from area to area31. which of the following is smiths greatest achievement?a. he drew many maps of strata.b. he used fossils to identify strata.c. he built a lot of canals in england.d. he was the creator of modern geology.dtry to imagine a world without noodles and you may begin to realize just how widespread this thin, tasty food has become. discoveries in archaeology(考古学) have proven it to be a surprisingly ancient food, dating back at least to 4000 b. c. not surprisingly, however, given the noodles widespread appeal and high status in more than a few culinary(烹任的) traditions, the claim(声称) to its invention is often a hotly discussed subject. many peoples have laid claim to its origination. historically, both italy and the middle east have particularly battled for the title. italian cooking is closely connected with the pasta noodle, but surprisingly the oldest recorded use of noodles in italy only dates back to the 8th century, during the arab conquest of sicily, an island of italy. this fact, along with the appearance of wheat flour in the middle east around 5000 b. c., has led some to favor the arab world as the more likely one to have first created noodles. however, recent evidence has cast some doubt on this theory, when the oldest known bowl of noodles was discovered in northwestern china. in 2002, a sealed bowl was unearthed from beneath ten feet of soil at the lajia archaeological site, and found to contain a bowl of amazingly well-preserved(保存完好的) noodles. after examination, scientists considered them to be about 4,000 years old. it was also determined that the noodles were not made of the wheat flour known at that time throughout the middle east, but instead of two types of millet grain, which was widely grown throughout china as far back as 7,000 years ago. one of the most remarkable aspects (方面) of the finding, however, as archaeochemist patrick mcgovern at the university of pennsylvania points out, is the degree of skill required to fashion long, thin noodles like those found at lajia. “this shows a fairly high level of food processing and culinary techniques,” he said. although the lajia discovery makes china home to the oldest known noodles, the origin of the noodle itself remains one of ancient historysmany secrets.32. there has been a worldwide debate over_.a. what food is the oldestb. where the noodle was inventedc. when the oldest food was discoveredd. whether the noodle is the worlds most popular food33. what can we conclude from paragraph 2 ?a. wheat flour may come from sicily island.b. people in the arab world first made noodles.c. the first noodles were made in the 8th century.d. italy is less likely to be the noodles birthplace.34. what can we learn about the noodles found in 2002?a. they were in good condition.b. they were made of wheat flour.c. they were made 7,000 years ago.d. they were discovered in the middle east.35. what did patrick mcgovern wonder at?a. the long history of the noodles.b. the unique way of storing food.c. the way the noodles were made.d. the value of the archaeological find.第二节（共5小题：每小题2分，满分10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。skiing is a winter sport that involves the use of skis. _36_skiers
