Therefore, very few people were able to enjoy some of historys most important and interesting artifacts (手工艺品). This has changed with an increase in the number of traveling museum exhibitions. 21*cnjy*comKing Tutankhamen ArtifactsA traveling exhibition of artifacts from the tomb of King Tutankhamen, popularly known as “King Tut”, toured the United States from November 1976 to April 1979. The 55 objects were shown in six cities and were seen by around eight million museum-goers. The second touring exhibit was started in 2007, this time with 130 artifacts and stops in London and three different American cities. However some objects, like the kings golden face mask, are too valuable or too delicate to be transported long distances, so “replicas” (exact copies of something) are on show.Japanese Color Woodblock PrintsThe Art Museum at University of Virginia, in Charlottesville, Virginia, has an extraordinary collection of Japanese color woodblock prints (木刻版画). These prints document the period from about 1850 to 1900, a time when Japan was opening itself to Western influences. Before this point, Japan was a closed society that had little communication with the world outside of its borders. These works of art beautifully show the feeling of change and the trend toward modernization. The museum has put together a traveling exhibition of 60 of these prints, which can be borrowed and exhibited worldwide for periods of eight weeks or more.Face-to-face with “Lucy”One of the worlds most famous archaeological (考古学的) finds in history are the 3.2 million-year-old bones of a 106-centimeter-tall female found in the Ethiopian desert in 1974. Lucy, a name given to her by the discovery team, is a “hominid”, or a creature that scientists believe is the earliest ancestor of modern human beings. Rarely is an artifact this valuable allowed to travel widely, but Lucy has been taken to several museums in the U.S. while a detailed replica remains at the Ethiopian Natural History Museum. 2-1-c-n-j-y21. What do we learn about King Tutankhamens artifacts?A. The artifacts were shown in London first.B. The artifacts were on show in the United States once.C. The second touring exhibit showed more artifacts than the first one.D. The kings golden face mask was also shown in the traveling exhibitions.22. What do the Japanese woodblock prints show about the society from 1850 to 1900?A. Japan had little communication with other countries.B. The whole country refused changes in the society.C. Japan was opening itself up to Western ideas.D. Japan achieved modernization.23. Who is Lucy according to the passage?A. An archaeologist.B. The ancestor of modern human beings.C. A 106-centimeter-tall female who died in 1974.D. The first woman who visited the Ethiopian desert.BSingapores public transport system (公共交通系统) is one of the best in the world, so you should have no problem finding your way around like a local (当地人).

He came home not because he was getting better but because he wanted to be with the people he knew and loved when he died.On most of my visits, Chuck was unconscious（无知觉的）， but the last time I saw him alive, he was awake. He reached under his pillow and pulled out a rolled-up paper.“I want you to give this to my mom and dad after I die. Youll know when its right, I guess. Will you?”“What is it?”I asked.“Its a list of all the fun we had, all the times we laughed.”21世纪*教育网I almost gasped（吸气）in amazement. With all the fear and anger and disappointment he had every right to be feeling, here he was trying to look out for his “Like what?” I asked quietly, trying to regain my composure（镇静）.“Like the time Mom and Dad and Chrissie and Linda and me were dressed up as Fruits and Dads driving us to a costume（化装）”party. Day was a bunch of grapes and I was an apple, and the others were different things like bananas and stuff. And Dad was stopped for speeding. When the policewoman came up to the car, she looked in and could hardly stand up. And we all started laughing and the policewoman said,Where you all headeda salad bar?Dad said he was sorry to be speeding, but his kids were getting so ripe that they were starting to draw flies. And the policewoman laughed till she had to take off her dark glasses and wipe tears from her eyes.”Chuck laughed and so did I.28Chuck came back home from the hospital . Ain order to get better Bbecause he didnt want to stay in hospital any moreCin order to give his parents a list Dbecause he wanted to spend his last moments with his family29Chuck gave the author a list because .Ahe wanted to ease his parents sadness Bhe wanted to please his parentsChe was angry and disappointed Dhe wanted his parents to remember him30Why did the policewoman laugh when she looked into the car? ABecause there were some ripe fruits in it.BBecause the family children were dressed in a funny way.CBecause she saw some flies around the children.DBecause she had poor eyesight and mistook the children for fruits.31What would be the most probable ending of the story?AChuck died and his parents always thought of his sufferings.BChuck got well and all the people were happy.CChuck got well and had more fun.DChuck died and the list greatly comforted his parents.DThe French break every diet rule we hear from experts. They eat a tiny breakfast of little buttery bread and coffee, put cream onto everything, have full-fat cheeses, eat a late dinner and never skip dessert! Yet only 8% of the French are fat, compared to 50% of Americans! Whats their secret? Although everything the French eat is rich, almost all of it is fresh.You may get slim the way French do if you:Say yes to rich foods! Dont refuse the meats you love, but do cut down the quantity. A study recently found that quantities in France are at least 25% smaller than ours are! In fact, the study shows, U. S. candy bars 42% larger, soft drinks 52% larger and yogurt cups 82% bigger! Fat is filling, so even though youre eating less, youll feel satisfied longer.Spark a conversation. The French use meals as times to enjoy family. And because their meals are social, they eat their food more slowly, stopping to put their forks down between each bite to chat. As a result, their brains have time to send the “Im full” signals before theyve overeaten.Skip snacks（零食）. Sure, the French love their mealsbut what they dont love is snacking. While most Americans stop a few times a day to have extra calories between meals , if the French feels hungry, they have tea or coffeeboth low in calories, yet comforting and filling.Finish with chocolate! The French end meals with coffee and a small piece of chocolate. This signals the meal has ended and helps prevent the desire of keeping on eating.32What does the author mainly intend to tell us in the passage?21*cnjy*comAWhy are the French so slim?BWhat are the French meals like?CWhat are the differences between French meals and American ones?DWhat foods do the French like most?33From the first paragraph we can learn that the French .Anever like to eat food high in fatBseldom have dessertCdont like to eat as the experts suggestDhave dinner early34Americans are easier to get fat because . Athey exercise less than the FrenchBthey take in more fat than the FrenchCthey eat more kinds of food than the FrenchDThey eat more candies than the French35The underlined word“skip”in the first paragraph probably means .Areach forBjump upCcare forDgo without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。How Can I Fight Laziness?Lazy people will never gain anything in life. However, laziness can be defeated once a few changes have been made in your mind. 36 Many people lack sleep constantly, since they stay up too late and get up too early to prepare for work. These people have little motivation once they arrive home. Laziness works hand in hand with a lack of motivation and a tendency to put off things. By adjusting your sleep schedule to provide a few more hours of meaningful rest, you can fight laziness throughout the day.Another way to fight laziness is to change your mind from passive to active. Some people treat their lives as if they were pushed from task to task. Others take a more positive approach, viewing each task as a challenge they must overcome alone. 37 Some people fight laziness by removing the temptations(诱惑) that surround them. A television in the living room may provide entertainment, but watching too much TV often contributes to laziness. 38 Complete a few tasks and reward yourself with what you enjoy, such as a good dinner or a film.Laziness can also be a lasting problem at home. Couples and children may all have different energy levels, but laziness can be spread if not dealt with immediately. 39 Be the first to collect and wash dishes after a meal. Others in the home may eventually follow your example and perform their own task. It is difficult to practice laziness when you are surrounded by motivated people. 40 Enough exercise and a balanced diet can help you to develop a healthy lifestyle, thus enabling you to have more energy and help lift your spirits. A. To fight family laziness, set an example. B. Knowing how to fight laziness is important. C. One way to fight laziness is to get enough sleep. D. Finally, taking exercise regularly can help you fight laziness. E. With strong determination, you will be able to achieve your goal. F. Laziness appears when you no longer feel in charge of your own mind. G. Create a reward system for yourself, just as parents do for a child.第三部分 英语知识运用（共两节，满分45分）第一节 完形填空（共20小题；每题1.5分，满分30分）Make the Most of What You Have GotFor Nick , life was going to be difficult from the day he was born.
