He was explaining the story of human being to his pupils. He told them that, in the beginning, men were nomads (游牧); they never stayed in the same place for very long. Instead, they would travel about, here and there, in search of food, wherever it was to be found. And when the food ran out, they would move off somewhere else.He taught them about the invention of farming and keeping animals. This was an important discovery, because by learning to cultivate (耕作) the land, and care for animals, mankind would always have food steadily. It also meant that people could remain living in one place, and this made it easier to set about tasks that would take a long while to finish, like building towns, cities, and all that were in them. All the children were listening attracted by this story, until Lucy jumped up:And if that was so important and improved everything so much, why are we nomads all over again, Mr. Arnold?Mr. Arnold didnt know what to say. Lucy was a very clever girl. He knew that she lived with her parents in a house, so she must know that her family were not nomads; so what did she mean?We have all become nomads again,” continued Lucy, The other day, outside the city, they were cutting the forest down. A while ago a fisherman told me how they fish. Its the same with everyone: when theres no more forest left, the foresters go elsewhere, and when the fish run out, the fishermen move on. Thats what the nomads did, isnt it?The teacher nodded, thoughtfully. Really, Lucy was right. Mankind had turned into nomads. Instead of looking after the land in a way that we could be sure it would keep supplying our needs, we kept developing it until the land was bare. And then off we would go to the next place! The class spent the rest of the afternoon talking about what they could do to show how to be more civilized (文明的).The next day everyone attended class wearing a green T-shirt, with a message that said I am not a nomad!And, from then on, they set about showing that indeed they were not. Every time they knew they needed something, they made sure that they would get it using care and control. If they needed wood or paper, they would make sure that they got the recycled kind. They ordered their fish from fish farms, making sure that the fish they received were not too young and too small. They only used animals that were well cared for, and brought up on farms.And so, from their little town, those children managed to give up being nomads again, just as prehistoric men had done, so many thousands of years ago.（1）Why would early humans travel about in the beginning?A . To experience different lifestyles.B . To go sightseeing in different places.C . To find what they could to feed themselves.D . To do more exercise to build themselves up.（2）From Paragraph 2, we can know that _.A . people got tired of living in the same placeB . people gradually got used to living in citiesC . people spent a long time in learning to keep animalsD . people tended to settle down after learning farming and keeping animals（3）The teacher thought Lucys argument was _A . reasonableB . unbelievableC . puzzlingD . shocking（4）Which of the following agrees with the underline sentence I am not a nomad (Paragraph 7)?A . People eat young fish for its delicious taste.B . People use recycled materials as much as possible.C . Fishermen move elsewhere when there is no fish left.D . Foresters leave the place where there is no wood left.（5）The writer tries to make us believe that _.A . mankind has been progressing mainly through traveling aboutB . its unwise for mankind to use the land in an uncontrolled wayC . its quite good for students to learn more about the history of mankindD . teachers should encourage students to voice their own opinions bravely15. （25分）阅读下面短文，按要求完成相关任务。It is said that more than four million people die each year from smoking.

Not caring about the money, parents often send their children to the best schools or foreign countries. They also make their children take after-school classes. The Chinese believe that the more expensive an education is, the better it is. In the countryside, even poor parents are willing to buy computers for their children.But in fact, the best early education that parents can give their children is usually very cheap. They should teach their children the most important skills to help them become confident, happy and clever.Parents can achieve this by teaching children practical skills like cooking, washing and doing other chores. Teaching children to cook will improve many skills that they will need later in life. Cooking needs patience and time. Its an enjoyable but difficult experience. A good cook always tries to improve his cooking skills, so he will learn to work hard and finish his job successfully. His result, a great dinner, will give him much satisfaction and a lot of self-confidence.Some old machines, such as a broken radio or a TV set that you give your child to play with, will make him interested.
