Given a research task，many students make use of a website known as Wikipedia，which is available（可获得的

14、）to all users of the Internet. However，before the introduction of the Internet, students journeyed to the library to search for facts，figures and stories in a huge collection of books known as encyclopedias（百科全书） The word“encyclopedia，meaning“whole circle of knowledge”，comes from the ancient Greek l

15、anguage. The first encyclopedias were organized by topic. These early collections were the works of a single writer. The first book of this kind was written by a Roman，Pliny the Elder, nearly 2,000 years ago. Plinys collection remained popular for almost 1,500 years. Producing such huge works was a

16、difficult task. So experts began to work together, sharing responsibility for writing about different topics. The first set of books to use many authors was An Universal Dictionary of Arts and Sciences published in 1728. The multiple-author model became the most widely used format. Today there are m

17、any encyclopedias in different media. The online encyclopedia Wikipedia was started in 2001. Users can visit the free website on the Internet. But the online information has mistakes. Users are warned that newer articles may have large mistakes. Printed encyclopedias are more or less free of mistake

18、s. However, it is expensive to make sure of the correctness. Wikipedia is trying to improve its correctness. They employ（雇用）1，000“fact checkers to look through the website and correct mistakes. The website managers also state that older articles are more complete and balanced. Encyclopedia Britannic

19、a has even made moves away from being a single-format book too. The company started a free online version. The free articles are short;however, longer articles are available after users pay for them. Both online and print editions（版本）have disadvantages. The mistakes can be corrected，but the process

20、takes time. Print editions are resistant（顽固的）to such mistakes. They are also resistant to something else：change. Sometimes new information becomes available after an encyclopedia is printed. Publishers can wait to include the new information in the next edition，but that might be a year or more away.

21、 More changes are likely for encyclopedias，whether in print or online. As time goes by，the knowledge of humankind will still need to be recorded，sorted，and stored. The story of how that information will look in 20，50 or even 100 years is still unwritten.1What is the second paragraph mainly about?ATh

Kids can also make history with their inventions.The state flag of Alaska was de

25、signed by 13-year-old Bennie Benson in 1926. His design was chosen from a flag designing-competition. It became the official flag in 1959. Bennie won a SI, 000 scholarship and a watch.Frank Epperson invented the Popsicle in 1905 when he was only 11 years old. It was called the Epsicle at that time.

26、. Frank left his drink outside the door overnight with a stick(木棒) in it. That night the temperature dropped and everything was frozen(冻住), including Franks drink. That didnt stop him from tasting it, so today we have Popsicles to eat.In 1642 Blaise Pascal designed the first counting machine when he

27、 was 18. The machine was for his father, a tax collector, to make his job easier. Blaise named it “the Pasealine. He made about 50 of them, but nobody was interested in it. People thought it would take jobs away from them. 300 years went by, and the calculator(计算器) finally became a success. In 1968,

28、 the programming language (程序设计语言)，PASCAL, was named after him.1How old was Bernie Benson when he designed the flag?A13B26C46D592What does the underlined word “Popsicle” mean in Chinese?A凉B美味C冰柜D冰棒3Why did Blaise Pascal invent the calculator?ABecause he wanted to use it in a test.BBecause he wanted

30、s are different in different countries. The Chinese have a saying “Eat good things for breakfast, eat a big meal for lunch, but eat less at dinner.” Many Americans agree that one should start the day with a good breakfast, but their ideas about lunch and dinner are different.Most Americans only give

31、 themselves a short time for lunch because they have not so much time to have a rest at noon. So they eat a small lunch. After work they will have more time to eat a big dinner. Also a quiet dinner at home with all the family talking about their day is a way to take a good rest after a long, hard da

32、y of work.Eating at restaurants is also different. In China, people like to talk and laugh while eating. Very often you can hear people talking and laughing loudly, and they just having a good time. In America it is not like this. They want a quiet place where they can eat a good meal far away from

33、the noises of the outside world. If someone is talking too loudly, the manager of the restaurant will look at him or her angrily. If some people are talking too loudly, the manager of the restaurant may come out and ask them to be quiet.1Chinese and Americans have the same idea on .Alunch and dinner

34、BbreakfastCsupperDmeal2Why dont Americans eat a big lunch at noon?ABecause that is Americans tradition.BBecause they eat too much in the morning.CBecause they have not enough time.DBecause Americans lunch is small.3If an American is talking too loudly in a Chinese restaurant, what will happen?.AThe

35、manager of the restaurant will look at him angrilyBThe manager of the restaurant may ask him to be quiet.CHe will have a good time.DHe will tell others to be quiet.4The best title of the passage is _ADifferent eating habits.BAmerican eating habits.CHow to eat wellDWhat is good eating habits.D16、Alth

36、ough most people believe that laughter is one of the natures great treatments for a whole range of mental and physical diseases, it is still a serious scientific subject that researchers are trying to figure out.“Laughter above all else is a social thing,” says Baltimore neuroscientist(神经科学家), Rober

37、t Provine, who has studied laughter for many years. “All laughter groups laugh ha-ha-ha basically the same way. Whether you speak Mandarin, French or English, everyone will understand laughter. There is a pattern generator(发生器) in our brain that produces this sound.”Laughing is our first way of comm

38、unicating. Babies laugh long before they speak. No one teaches them how to laugh. They just do. People may laugh at a prank(恶作剧) on April Fools Day. But surprisingly, only 10 to 15 percent of laughter is the result of someone making a joke. Laughter is mostly about social responses rather to a joke.

39、 Deaf people laugh without hearing and people on cell phones laugh without seeing, showing that laughter isnt dependent on single sense but on social interactions.And laughter is not just a people thing. Chimps tickle(挠痒) each other and even laugh when another chimp pretends to tickle them.Jaak Pank

40、sepp, a Bowling Green University Psychology professor, studies rats that laugh when he tickles them. It turns out rats love to be tickled they return again and again to the hands of researchers tickling them.By studying rats, scientists can_whats going on in the brain during laughter. Northwestern U

41、niversity biomedical engineering professor, Jeffrey Burgdorf has found that laughter in rats produces a chemical that acts as an antidepressant(抗抑郁药). He thinks the same thing probably happens in humans, too. This would give doctors a new chemical target to develop drugs that can fight depression.Ev

42、en so, laughter itself has not been proved to be the best medicine, experts said. Margaret Stuber, a professor at University of California, studied whether laugher helped patients. She found that distraction(分心) and mood improvement helped, but she could not find a benefit of laughter alone.“No stud

43、y has shown that laughter produces a direct health benefit,” Provine said, mainly because its hard to separate laughter from just feeling good. But he thinks it doesnt really matter: “Isnt the fact that laughter feels good when you do it enough?”1（小题1）The underlined word “figure out” in Paragraph 6

44、means “_”.Adeal with Bwork outClook out of Dcome up with2（小题2）According to the passage, scientists studied rats in order to find _.Ahow they laughBif they like laughingCwhat laughter in rats producesDhow rats react while being tickled3（小题3）What can we know from Robert Provines research?ALaughter mak

He was

46、at a new school， and students there were friendly. “Hi， Bob!” some students greeted him， but some students said “Hi， Peter!” Bob didnt understand. He asked one student， “Why do some students call me Peter?”“Oh， thats easy to answer，” the student said. “Peter was a student here last year. Now he is i

47、n a different school. You look like Peter. Some students thought that you were Peter.”Bob wanted to meet Peter. He got Peters address from a student and went to Peters house. Peter opened the door. Bob couldnt believe his eyes. He looked really like Peter! Bob and Peter had the same colour eyes and

48、the same smile. They had the same black hair. They also had the same birthday. And they both were adopted(领养) by two different families.Bob and Peter found out that they were twin brothers. Soon after the boys were born， one family adopted Bob， and another family adopted Peter. Bobs family never kne

49、w about Peter， and Peters family never knew about Bob.Soon Bob and Peters story appeared in the newspaper. There was a photo of Bob and Peter next to the story.

50、 black hair. He had the same birthday. And he， too， was adopted by another family.Later John met Bob and Peter. When Bob and Peter saw John， they couldnt believe their eyes.

Money does have a great effect on the poor, but if a person has a rich life, a lot more money doesnt mean more happiness.If money were ever

53、ything, all millionaires(百万富翁)would have true love, real friendship, health and a long life. However, this is not always true.Nothing else is more pleasant than the three words “I love you”, but can love be bought? Im afraid not. Love means “give”, not “ take”. Health and a long life are precious(宝贵

54、的)things for every person. Well, can health and a long life be bought with money? The answer is “No”. Of all the people who live longest in the world, few of them are millionaires. Real friendship cant be bought, either.In a word, where money isworshiped, money can cause brothers to quarrel, lovers

55、to hate, strangers to fight and so on.
