One particular 7 with him changed my life forever.It was a summer and a friend recommended me for a summer 8 .

I a letter addressed to the justice secretary, Ken Clarke, 40 archaeologists write of their “deep and widespread concern” about the issue. It centers on the law introduced by the Ministry of Justice in 2020 which requires all human remains unearthed in England and Wales to be reburied within two years, regardless of their age. The decision means scientists have too little time to study bones and other human remains of national and cultural significance.“Your current requirement that all archaeologically unearthed human remains should be reburied, whether after a standard period of two years or further special extension, is contrary to basic principles of archaeological and scientific research and of museum practice,” they write.The law applies to any pieces of bone uncovered at around 400 dig sites, including the remains of 60 or so bodies found at Stonehenge in 2020 that date back to 3,000 BC. Archaeologists have been granted a temporary extension to give them more time, but eventually the bones will have to be returned to the ground.The arrangements may result in the waste of future discoveries at sites such as Happisburgh in Norfolk, where digging is continuing after the discovery of stone tools made by early humans 950,000 years ago. If human remains were found at Happisburgh, they would be the oldest in northern Europe and the first indication of what this species was. Under the current practice of the law those remains would have to be reburied and effectively destroyed.Before 2020, guidelines allowed for the proper preservation and study of bones of sufficient age and historical interest, while the Burial Act 1857 applied to more recent remains. The Ministry of Justice assured archaeologists two years ago that the law was temporary, but has so far failed to revise it.Mike Parker Pearson, an archaeologist at Sheffield University, said: “Archaeologists have been extremely patient because we wee led to believe the ministry was sorting out this problem, but we feel that we cannot wait any longer.”The ministry has no guidelines on where or how remains should be reburied, or on what records should be kept.1. According to the passage, scientists are unhappy with the law mainly because _.A. it is only a temporary measure on the human remainsB. it is unreasonable and thus destructive to scientific researchC. it was introduced by the government without their knowledgeD. it is vague about where and how to rebury human remains2. Which of the following statements is true according to the passage?A. Temporary extension of two years will guarantee scientists enough time.B. Human remains of the oldest species wee dug out at Happisburgh.C. Human remains will have to be reburied despite the extension of time.D. Scientists have been warned that the law can hardly be changed.3. What can be inferred about the British law governing human remains?A. The Ministry of Justice did not intend it to protect human remains.B. The Burial Act 1857 only applied to remains uncovered before 1857.C. The law on human remains hasnt changed in recent decades.D. The Ministry of Justice has not done enough about the law.4. Which of the following might be the best title of the passage?A. New discoveries should be reburied, the government demands.B. Research time should be extended, scientists require.C. Law on human remains needs thorough discussion, authorities say.D. Law could bury ancient secrets for ever, archaeologists warn.【参考答案】14、阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C、D)中,选出最佳选项。【2020仿真模拟冲刺卷】There were smiling children all the wayClearly they knew at what time the train passed their homes and they made it their business to stand along the railway,wave to complete strangers and cheer them up as they rushed towards PenangOften whole families stood outside their homes and waved and smiled as if those on the trains were their favorite relativesThis is the simple village people of MaiaysiaI was movedI had always traveled to Malaysia by plane or car,so this was the first time I was on a trainI did not particularly relish the long train journey and had brought along a dozen magazines to read and rereadI looked about the trainThere was not one familiar faceI sighed and sat down to read my EconomicsIt was not long before the train was across the Causeway and in MalaysiaJohore Baru was just another city like Singapore,so I was tired of looking at the crowds of people as they hurried pastAs we went beyond the city,I watched the straight rows of rubber trees and miles and miles of greenThen the first village came into sightImmediately I came aliveI decided to wave hackFrom then on my journey became interestingI threw my magazines into the waste basket and decided to join in Malaysian lifeThen everything came aliveThe mountains seemed to speak to meEven the trees were smilingI stared at everything as if I was looking at it for the first timeThe day passed fast and I even forgot to have my lunch until I felt hungryI looked at my watch and was surprised that it was 3:00 pmSoon the train pulled up at ButterworthI looked at the people all around meThey all looked beautifulWhen my uncle arrived with a smile,I threw my arms around him to give him a warm hug (拥抱)I had never done this beforeHe seemed surprised and then his weather-beaten face warmed up with a huge smileWe walked arm in arm to his carI looked forward to the return journey51The author expected the train trip to be _Aadventurous Bpleasant CexcitingDdull52What did the author remember most fondly of her train trip?AThe friendly country peopleBThe mountains along the wayCThe crowds of people in the streetsDThe simple lunch served on the train53Which of the following words can best take the place of the word “relish” in the second paragraph?Achoose Benjoy Cprepare for Dcarry on54Where was the writer going?AJohore Baru BThe CausewayCButterworth DSingapore55What can we learn from the story?AComfort in traveling by t rainBPleasure of living in the countryCReading gives people delightDSmiles brighten people up【参考答案】5155 DABCD阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C、D)中,选出最佳选项。【2020二模】Firefighters had largely tamed a tower of flame and smoke that covered the sun and drove thousands from their homes in the foothill suburbs northeast of Los Angeles, but a week of dangerously windy wildfire conditions and a year of historic dryness meant that this fire and predictable ones to come remained a major threat.By nightfall Thursday, the wildfire that swept through about 2 1/2 square miles of brush in the San Gabriel Mountains and destroyed five homes early in the day had its progress stopped and was 30 percent contained. More than 700 firefighters were on the scene, along with 70 engines and a fleet of helicopters and air tankers dropping water and retardant(阻止物).But the National Weather Service said a red-flag warning of extreme fire danger in effect much of the week would remain in place until Friday evening because of low humidity and the chance of the regions infamous Santa Ana winds bursting to 30 mph in the foothills and valleys.Some 3,700 people from Glendora and Azusa evacuated at the height of the fire. Glendora residents were allowed to return home Thursday evening, but homes in Azusa remained under evacuation orders. It wasnt clear how many remained empty.Fire engines would stay in all the endangered neighborhoods through the night and helicopters were available to fly after dark if it became necessary. Nighttime bursts brought a few flame-ups, but they remained within fire lines.Two firefighters had minor injuries and a woman trying to fight the fire near her home suffered a minor burn. Seventeen structures were damaged, including homes, garages, barns and other buildings. At least 10 renters were left homeless when the fire destroyed rental units on the historic grounds of a retreat that once was the summer land of the Singer sewing machine family. Statues of Jesus and Mary stood unharmed near the blackened ruins. However, the main, 1920s house was spared.Three men in their 20s, including a homeless man, were arrested on suspicion of irresponsibly starting the fire by tossing paper into a campfire in the Angeles National Forest, just north of Glendora. They said they were trying to keep warm and the wildfire appears to have been an accident. They could face state or federal charges.61. Whats the purpose of the first paragraph?A.

Both men have hearing damage from exposure to loud music, and both now wear hearing aids as a consequence. As a teenager, Clinton played saxophone in a band. Townshend, who has the more severe hearing loss, was a guitarist for a band called the Who. He is one of the first rock musicians to call the publics attention to the problem of hearing loss from exposure to loud music.Temporary hearing loss can happen after only 15 minutes of listening to loud music. One early warning sign is when your ears begin to feel warm while you listen to music at a rock concert or through headphones. One later is that an unusual sound or a ringing is sometimes produced in your head after the concert.What happens is that the hair cells in the inner ear are damaged, but theyre not dead, says physician and ear specialist Dr. Sam Levine. According to Dr. Levine, if you avoid further exposure to loud noise, its possible to recondition the cells somewhat. However, he adds, Eventually, over a long period of time, hair cells are permanently damaged. And this is no small problem.What sound level is dangerous? According to Dr. Levine, regular exposure to noise above 85 decibels (分贝) is considered dangerous. The chart below offers a comparison of decibel levels to certain sounds. Heres another measurement you can use. If youre at a rock concert and the music is so loud that you have to shout to make yourself heard, you re at risk for hearing loss. Thats when wearing protective devices such as earplugs becomes critical.The facts are pretty frightening. But are rock bands turning down the volume.?
