why read the life story of a famous man, when a short television program can tell you all that you want to know? television has not killed reading, however. today, newspapers sell in very large numbers. and books of every kind are sold more than ever before. books are still a cheap way to get information and enjoyment. although some books with hard covers are expensive, many books are printed today as paperbacks (平装本), which are quite cheap. a paperback collection of short stories, for example, is always cheaper than an evening at the cinema or the theater, and you can keep a book for ever and read it many times. books are a wonderful provider of knowledge and pleasure and some types of books should be in every home. every home should have a good dictionary. a good encyclopedia (百科全书), though expensive, is useful, too, because you can find information on any subject. besides, you can have such books as history books, science textbooks, cookbooks, and collections of stories and poems. then from time to time you can take a book of poems off your shelves and read the thoughts and feelings of your favorite poets. 1. it can be inferred from the passage that _.a. tv programs are a chief provider of knowledgeb. cinemas are the best choice in getting informationc. reading is a cheap way of learning and having fund. newspapers are an expensive way to enjoy oneself2. what does the sentence“television has not killed reading, however”underlined in the second paragraph suggest?

”this is what happened to four french boys in 1940. they found the lascaux caves. the paintings the boys discovered in those caves are about 17, 000 years old. they were drawn by the ancient people called cro-magnon(克鲁马努人). cro-magnons looked much like people of today. they used tools, such as fishing nets. but their art was extremely good. the main cave at lascaux is called great hall of bulls, which has a picture of bulls and horses in many colours. the largest animal is 18 feet long. there are smaller animals, such as bison, stags and a bear. there is also a strange spotted two-horned(两只角的)animal. to the left of the main cave are the most famous paintings that are the drawings of animals in many different colours. one painting is called little horses. on the ceiling are horses and cows. the most unusual sight may be in the shaft of the dead man where there is a rhinoceros, a carefully drawn dead man, an injured bison and a bird. why did cro-magnon artists do these beautiful drawings on cave walls? did the drawings call upon some magic power? did the cro-magnon people hope that the drawings would bring good luck? there is one thing the paintings seem to tell us. the cro-magnons were interested in the world. they looked at beauty and they understood it. 【文章大意】本文介绍了法国lascaux岩洞壁画的相关情况。1. the author uses the word“you”in paragraph 1 to. a. attract readers attentionb. make it clear that this is a true storyc. give readers good directions to find the cavesd. compare modern people with cro-magnon people【解析】选a。推理判断题。第一段虚构了一个以读者为主人公的场景, 目的就是为了引起读者的阅读兴趣。2. most of the drawings in the caves are about. a. boysb. toolsc. humansd. animals【解析】选d。细节理解题。根据第三、四段对壁画的描述可知, 洞内的绝大多数壁画是关于动物的。3. what does the passage mainly tell us?
