he kept trying new things. at age 12, he started a sports club for his friends and got their school to have a field day with active games and prizes. as he grew and practiced, gilbert became skilled at pole vaulting（撑杆跳高）, pull-ups, the long jump and football. gilbert broke the world record for pull-ups in 1900 and the distance record for running long dive in 1902. and he won a gold medal in the pole vault at the olympic games in 1908. by that time, he had nearly finished medical studies. choosing not to make medicine his career, gilbert co-founded mysto manufacturing, a manufacturer of magic sets, in 1907. gilbert had amused his friends and earned college money by doing magic tricks, so he knew what was needed. one day, gilbert saw workers using steel girders（钢梁） to build towers for power lines. that gave him the idea for the erector set, a popular construction toy.in 1917, the council of national defense thought no toys should be produced for christmas because the country was fighting in world war i. gilbert and other men from the toy manufacturers of america went to washington, with about 40 different toys. they had 15 minutes to speak. this meeting was at the end of a long, hard day. gilbert told the government men at the meeting how toys helped children learn. his helpers brought out the toys. soon, the tired government men were on the floor, playing with building sets, models of navy ships, and other toys. the time limit was forgotten; so was the christmas toy ban（禁令）.gilbert spent the rest of his life improving erector sets. his company made and sold the sets, plus chemistry and other science sets and toy trains. he made items for homes, businesses, and the army. when he died in 1961, he had 150 patents （专利）for his many inventions. but his main joy was in

these kinds of tasks. scientists think the first interactions humans had with horses were far different from those today.thousands of years ago, people killed the wild horses that lived around them for food. over time, people began to catch the animals and raise them. this was the first step in domestication.as people began to tame and ride horses, they chose to keep those animals that had more desirable characteristics. for example, people may have chosen to keep horses that had a gentle personality so they could be ridden more easily. people who used horses to pull heavy loads would have chosen to keep stronger animals. characteristics like strength are partly controlled by the animals genes. so as the domesticated horses reproduced, they passed the characteristics on to their young. each new generation of houses would show more of these chosen characteristics.modern day horse breeds come in a wide variety of shapes and sizes. this variety didnt exist in the horse population before domestication. the shetland horse is one of the smallest breedstypically reaching only one meter tall. with short, strong legs, the animals were bred to pull coal out of mine shafts (矿井) with low ceilings. huge horses like the clydesdale came on the scene around 1700. people bred these heavy, tall horses to pull large vehicles used for carrying heavy loads.the domestication of horses has had great effects on societies. for example, horse were important tools in the advancement of modern agriculture. using them to pull ploughs and carry heavy loads allowed people to farm more efficiently. before they were able to ride horses, humans had to cross land on foot. riding horses allowed people to travel far greater distance in much less time. that encouraged populations living in different areas to interact with one another. the new from of rapid transportation helped cultures spread around the world 59. before domestication horses were _.a. caught for sports b. hunted for foodc. made to pull ploughs d. used to carry people60. the author uses the shetland horse as an example to show _.a. it is smaller than the clydesdale horseb. horse used to have gentle personalitiesc. some horses have better shaped than othersd. horses were of less variety before domestication61. horses contributed to the spread of culture by _.a. carrying heavy loadsb. changing farming methodsc. serving as a means of transportd. advancing agriculture in different areas62. the passage is mainly about _.a. why humans domesticated horsesb. how humans and horses needed each otherc. why horses came in different shapes and sizesd. how human societies and horses influenced each other 第二节 （七选五 共5小题，每小题2分，满分10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，选项中有两项为多余选项。the american book “ who moved my cheese”
