When the website opens, a picture of the revolving (旋转的) earth will appear against the background of the universe. A click on the Great Wall will bring the earth nearer, and slowly a white line becomes visible across the Chinese territory in the north. A closer view shows that this is the Great Wall.Netizens will be able to appreciate the Great Wall with the eye of a tourist and “walk” from Shanhai Pass in the east of the Great Wall to Jiayu Pass in the west in just a couple of days. They can also take a look at the mineral resources and economic status of regions along the Great Wall. CASS and the Great Wall Society are trying their best to make this dream come true through close cooperation.According to Zhang, to achieve the above effects, scientists will rely on airborne (空中的) remote sensing, national geographical information system and global positioning system to collect detailed data of the Great Wall, analyze and process the data, apply them to satellite images for 3D translation, and thereafter create a 3D digital image of the Great Wall for the entire world to appreciate the really great Great Wall of China via the Internet.51.

Wouldnt it be nice to have a friend who could help you out? John Smith, an English explorer who landed in America in 1607, found the best friend ever. She was a Native American named Pocahontas (1595-1617). And she did more than teach Smith the language: she saved his life, twice. Smith was captured by members of Pocahontass tribe (部落) and was going to be killed. But for some reason, the Chiefs daughter, Pocahontas, felt sorry for Smith (who was probably the first white man she had ever seen) and threw her body over his to protect him. Smith returned safely to the small village he was living in. During the winter the English settlers did not know how to get food from nature. Pocahontas often brought food for Smith and his friends. A year later Pocahontass father tried to kill Smith again because the Native Americans were very scared the English would try to take over their land. Pocahontas warned him and he was able to escape. Later she became a Christian and eventually married an Englishman named John Rolfe. She spent the last year of her life in London. Pocahontas has become an American legend (传奇). Her life story has been re-created in many books and films, including Disneys 1995 film, Pocahontas. One of the reasons she is so popular is that many Europeans look at Pocahontas as an excellent example of how a minority(少数) can adjust into the majority（多数）. Pocahontas is also respected because of her selfless love. She proved that people can be kind and loving even to people of a different race or culture. John Smith was very different from Pocahontas but she could see he was a good man and that was all that mattered. No race or country owns goodness, love and loyalty.56. What difficulties might early European settlers meet in America EXCEPT _? A. the fierce conflict（冲突）with Native Americans B. bad-tempered natives who enjoyed killing C. unfamiliarity with a foreign land D. lack of food in winter57.

Which is NOT a reason for making Pocahontas a legend?A. Her tribal background and her marriage to a white settler.B. Her selfless help to people regarded as enemy of her tribe.C. Her complicated life story different from common peoples.D. The recreation of her life story in the 1995 Disney film.59. According to the text, Europeans think Pocahontas _.A. was brave to break away from her own tribeB. set a good example for other natives to accept the white settlers C. was a selfless Christian who can love her enemyD. was open to a more advanced culture60. What can we infer from the passage?A. The battles between early settlers and Native Americans resulted from their fighting for land.B. The Europeans think the early settlers should have learned to adjust to the local cultures.C. The creation of America is based on the settlers victory over the Native Americans.D. People from different cultures can never really get along well with each other.CWhen my first wartime Christmas came, I was in basic training in New Jersey and not sure if I would make it home for the holiday. Only on the afternoon of December 23 was the list of men who would have the three-day holiday posted. I was one of the lucky soldiers. It was Christmas Eve when I arrived home, and a little snow had fallen. Mother opened the front door. I could see beyond her, into the corner of the living room where the tree had always stood. There were lights, colors, and ornaments (饰品) shining against the green of a pine. Where did it come from? I asked. I asked the Gates boy to cut it, my mother said. I wouldnt have had one just for myself, but when in great need. such a rush! He just brought it in this afternoon. The pine reached to the proper height, almost to the ceiling, and the Tree Top Crystal（水晶）Star was in its place. A few green branches reached out a little awkwardly（难看）at the side, I thought, and there was a bit of bare trunk showing in the middle. But the tree filled the room with warm light and the whole house with the pleasant smell of Christmas. Its not like the one you used to find, my mother went on. Yours were always in good shape. I suppose the Gates boy didnt know where to look for a better one. But I couldnt be fussy(挑剔的). Dont worry, I told her. Its perfect. It wasnt, of course, but at the moment I realized something for the first time: All Christmas trees are perfect. 61. What did his mothers Christmas tree look like? 62.

From the passage, we can conclude that _ . A. his mother didnt like Christmas trees B. the writer didnt like the tree cut by someone else C. the writer used to cut very beautiful Christmas trees D. his mother didnt want to have a Christmas tree during wartime 64. The best title for this passage would be _ . A. The Perfect Christmas Tree B. How to Choose a Christmas Tree C. How Soldiers Spent Their Christmas D. A Christmas with an Ugly Christmas Tree 65. What does the writer mean by saying All Christmas trees are perfect? A. Nothing is as perfect as Christmas. B. Once at home, everything is so nice. C. During the war, trees are hard to find. D.
