One important centre on the road was the city of Changan, where present day Xian now stands. Changan was the capital city of this dynasty and by about 750 AD it had become a strong and successful capital of around two million people. Because of the chances for trade, a number of foreigners from countries bordering China lived in the city.The markets at this time in Changan were perhaps the most exciting markets anywhere in the world. They sold goods from India, Japan, Korea, Turkey, Iran and other Arab countries and many items in the markets would have been completely new to some of the buyers. Interesting animals were sold together with exotic(奇异的) plants and strange medicines. Dried animals, dried foods and dried plants were laid out for sale next to rare seeds and spices (香料). But besides the hope to trade, which drew people together, China was still largely a mysterious country to the outside world and certainly the secret of the silk making was still unknown.The route to the west followed different paths but the traders would have travelled from places to places, always looking for routes both to water and protection. However, the Ming Dynasty had its policy of isolation (闭关)，together with the growth of Islam(伊斯兰), reduced the traffic along this ancient land route. Instead, sea routes became more popular and in the early 15th century there were many Chinese ships trading silk and other goods along the coasts of India, Arabia and Africa.1What does the underlined word “mysterious” in Paragraph 2 mean?A. Ample. B. Wonderful.C. Lively. D. Secret.答案：D词义猜测题。根据画线词所在句子中的the secret of the silk making was still unknown可以看出，此处mysterious意为“神秘的”，含有“秘密的”之意。2According to the passage, people at that time would buy all the following objects in the markets in Changan EXCEPT _.A. dried food B. animalsC. ships D. strange medicines答案：C细节理解题。由第二段第三、四句可知，A、B、D三项都可以在那时长安的市场上买到，相关内容没有提到C项。3According to this passage, the Silk Road _.A. started just from ChanganB. ran not only by land but also by seaC. only refers to the one through the desertD. began in the Tang Dynasty for the first time答案：B细节理解题。由最后一段的最后两句可以看出，丝绸之路不但有陆路也有水路。4This passage mainly tells us _.A. the silk trade in the pastB. the rise and fall of the Silk RoadC. the hard life of the traders on the Silk RoadD. why sea routes became popular in the early 15th century答案：B主旨大意题。本文主要讲述了唐朝陆上丝绸之路的繁荣及衰落，最后提及了海上丝绸之路的兴起，所以选B项。选 做 题.短文改错此题要求改正短文中的错误。对标有题号的每一行做出判断：如无错误，在答题卡相应的位置上画一个勾()；如有错误(每行只有一个错误)，则按下列情况改正：此行多一个词：把多余的词写在答题卡相应的位置，用斜线(划掉。此行缺一个词：在答题卡相应的位置上写出该加的词，并附带前(后)词。此行错一个词：在答题卡相应的位置上写出该错词和改正后的词。注意：原行没有错的不要改。One day I told Mr Wang, our math teacher, was ill. 1._I was worried about him and went to see him after the school. 2._When I enter his room, he struggled up to welcome 3._me.

Thirteen years later, the authors of China Is Not Happy list their dissatisfaction with how China is being treated in the world today.They argue that China needs to use its growing power and economic resources to build its own position of preeminence(卓越 ). “From looking at the history of human civilization, we are most qualified to lead this world. ”the book says.The authors, single out the US for special scorn(轻蔑)“The economic problem has shown the Chinese people that America does have problems, that what weve been saying is right，” said one of the authors.The book has become a bestseller in many Chinese bookstores. Yet much of the response to the book has been negative. Several reviews in the Chinese media have criticized the books radical (激进的) opinions. The book is a way to “fish money from the pockets of the angry youth and angry elderly，” wrote one critic in the China Youth Daily. Meanwhile, a wellknown sociologist, Li Yinhe, has said that China needs patriotism(爱国主义), but there is a limit.

Good salesmanship will be essential in many more interactions than we consider today, especially inside the organization.3_Communication skillscareful listening, clear writing, close reading, plain speaking, and accurate descriptionwill be invaluable. In tomorrows fastpaced(快节奏的)business environment there will be precious little time to correct any misunderstandings. Communications breakdown may well become a fatal corporate disease.4_Ability to learn will be above everything else in importance，empowering people to grow in effectiveness and help their companies achieve desired objectives. Some of this skill is innate, but many people enhance their ability to learn and to relate different aspects of learning through college and university courses. We believe the liberal arts education experience will prove to be the most valuable type of education for tomorrows leaders.5_The top employees of the coming century will be flexible, creative and motivated toward making a positive difference in the world. They will seek balance, growth and fulfillment in both their work and home environments. The corporation of the future must respond to these needs and desires; otherwise they will find themselves hampered by a lack of qualified people to accomplish the organizations work.答案：15 EAFBC.任务型阅读The local university blood centre had a blood drive today at the Civic Centre auditorium(礼堂).
