made him worldwide famous, but he hated to be praised. he was an inventor, scientist and industrialist. to improve mining and road building, he invented a new explosive. but he was desperately worried about his invention when he saw it was used to kill his fellow men.studying mainly on his own nobel was good chemist at 16and was fluent in five languages. imaginative and inventive, as an industrialist, he was even better than his father in the financial area, and his achievements were much greater than his fathers, he spent much time and money to work for the good of mankind and seek

is always so busy that he has little time for his friends .he is a successful manager in a company that sends mail all over the world .one day chuck is on a flight across the pacific ocean when suddenly his plane crashes. chuck survives the crash and lands on a deserted islands on the island, chuck has to learn to survive all alone. he has to learn how to collect water, hunt for food, and make fire, perhaps the most difficult challenge is how to survive without friends. in order to survive, chuck develops a friendship with an unusual frienda volleyball he calls wilson.chuck learns a lot about himself when he is a lone on the island, he realizes that he hasnt been a very good friend because he has always been thinking about himself, during his five years on the island, chuck

happiness and sorrow, and that it is important to have someone to care a bout. he also learns that he should have more about his friends. when he makes friends with wilson, he understands that friendship is about feeling and that we must give as much as we take.a volleyball is certainly an unusual friend. most of our friends are human beings, but we also make friends with animals and even things, for example, many of us have pets, and we all have favorite objects such as lucky pen or a diary. the lesson we can learn from chuck and all the others who have unusual friends is that friends

believe that the over 6,300-kilometer great wall might disappear some day. believe it or not, the great wall is being destroyed by people. less than 20 percent of the great wall built in the ming dynasty, is still perfect, but about 80 percent is in danger. the great wall can be called “great” mostly because of its amazing length. but we should realize that the length was made up of one brick at a time. if we do nothing to save the great wall, it will become a series of separate wasteland rather than a historic site. the great wall is actually a series of walls built and rebuilt by different dynasties over the past 2,000 years. it began in the rule of chinas first emperor, qin shihuang of the qin dynasty (221 bc-206 bc), and lasted into the ming dynasty. the parts built before the mingdynasty have nearly disappeared. people are familiar with sections such as badaling in beijing and jiayuguan pass in gansu, because they have been open to tourists for many years. but those sections far away from the public eyes have been almost forgotten. few local people knew the 3-metre-high walls made of earth and stones beside them are part of the great wall. the lack of knowledge is considered as one of the main reasons behind human. the bricks on the great wall are carried off by countryside people to build their houses, sheep corrals and pigsties. some were taken away to build roads. bricks carved with peoples names are put away as remembrances. rubbish is spread over the battlements. the bricks can be sold for 15 yuan per tractor load. those who destroyed and are destroying the wall know its name, but are not clear about its cultural meaning. it will take a long time to let them know this. the local farmers not only carried off the body of the wall but also dug out the entire base. it is necessary to protect the great wall. first of all, the officials should be aware of the importance of the great wall. young chinese should know more about the nations great civilization and learn to love it.48. why does the writer say the great wall might disappear? a. it is useless from now on. b. it will be replaced by a new one. c. some parts of it are being destroyed. d. it is too old to be used again.49. according to the passage, which of the following is true? a. the great wall was completed in the ming dynasty. b. not all the foreign tourists like the great wall. c. the first part of the great wall was built in 221 bc. d. the qin great wall was protected well. 50. the underlined part “those sections far away from the public eyes” (in paragraph 2) refers to the parts of the great wall _. a. that are too difficult to find b. nobody can watch c. that are too far to be seen d. that are not well-known to the public 51. whats the main reason of the great walls being destroyed? a. the local people are short of culture knowledge. b. the local people need bricks and stones to build houses. c. the local people think that the great wall is not important. d. the local people sell the bricks for a living. d under proper conditions, sound waves will be reflected (反射) from a hillside or other such obstruction. sound travels at the rate of about one fifth of a mile per second. if the hill is eleven hundred feet away, it takes less than two seconds for the sound to travel to the hill and back. thus , by timing the interval between a sound and its echo (回声), one can estimate the distance to an obstruction (障碍物). during world war ii the british applied the principle to detect (查明) german planes on their way to bomb london long before they were near the target. they used radio waves instead of sound waves, since of the islands. on each of their missions the germans were very much puzzled to find the outnumbered (数量上大于) royal air force (raf) lying in wait at the right time and right place. it was radio echoes more than anything else that won the battle of britain.since the radio waves were used to tell the direction in which to send the raf planes and the distance to send them (their range of fight , in other words),the de-vice was called radio directing and ranging, and from the initials (开头的) the word radar was coined (a word so coined is an acronym, other examples are laser, ufo and so on).51. it is known that sound _.a. reflects at the rate of about one fifth of a mile per second b. reflects in less than two seconds c. reflects at a rate twice that at which it travels d. travels at a slower rate if there is a hillside in front of it 52. german planes were detected by the raf _.a. when they were near their target b. when they were near londonc. when they were still far away from londond. as soon as they were on their way to london53. the british used radio waves instead of sound waves because _.a. fog and clouds would change the rate at which sound travels b. sound waves are more penetrating c. fog and clouds blocked the path of sound wavesd. fog and clouds blocked the view of the raf54. the german pilots were puzzled because _.a. their planes were always outnumbered by the royal air forceb. they found that the raf were using radio waves instead of sound wavesc. it was radio echoes that were winning the battle of britain d. the raf knew when and where and where to wait for them55. radar had played _ role in winning the battle of britain.a. a decisive b. an importantc. its d. a minoreit seems more and more americans want schools to teach foreign languages to children younger than five years old. the most popular way to teach these young children another language is called immersion. children in immersion programs hear only the new language in the classroom. the children play games, sing songs and talk to one another in the new language. some experts say immersion programs are the most effective way for young children to learn a language. but there can be a problem when children in the united states begin to learn another language at such an early age. not many elementary schools(小学) continue the effort as the children get older. only seven of the fifty states require schools to teach a foreign language to students between the ages of six and twelve. language experts say it is easier for younger children to learn a language. still, american schools generally do not begin to teach foreign languages until secondary schools. by then, students are about thirteen years old. american schools face difficult choices about the cost of educational programs. the federal government has increased support for foreign language study in its education law called no child left behind. at the college level, the modern language association says more students than ever are studying foreign languages. the group recently announced its findings for the period from 1998 until 2002. the number of students who studied foreign languages in american colleges and universities increased by seventeen percent. spanish is the most widely taught language in american colleges and universities. other popular languages include french, german, japanese, chinese and italian. the modern language association says more languages are being studied now than in the past. it says the largest growth since 1998 has been in the study of american sign language, arabic and biblical hebrew(希伯来语). the association says about nine percent of college students in the united states study foreign languages. that is the highest level since 1
