But if we had kept a book and written in it an account of what we did each day, w

12、e should be able to give an answer to the question.It is the same in history. Many things have been forgotten because we do not have any written account of them. Sometimes men did keep a record of the most important happenings in their country, but often it was destroyed by fire or in a war. Sometim

13、es there was never any written record at all because the people of that time and place did not know how to write. For example, we know a great deal about the people who lived in China 4,000 years ago, because they could write and leave written records for those who lived after them. But we know almo

14、st nothing about the people who lived even 200 years ago in central Africa, because they had not learned to write.Sometimes, of course, even if the people cannot write, they may know something of the past. They have heard about it from older people, and often songs and dances and stories have been m

15、ade about the most important happenings, and those have been sung and acted and told for many generations, for most people are proud to tell what their fathers did in the past. This we may call “remembered history”. Some of it has now been written into history. It is not so exact or so valuable to u

16、s as written history is, because words are much more easily changed when used again and again in speech than when copied in writing. But where there are no written records, such spoken stories are often very helpful.21. Which of the following ideas is NOT talked about in the passage ?A. “ Remembered

17、 history”, compared with written history, is less reliableB. Written records of the past play a most important part in our learning of the human history.C. Where there are no written records, there is no history.D. A written account of our daily activities helps us to answer some questions.22. “Reme

18、mbered history” is regarded as valuable only when _.A. it is written down B. there is no written accountC. it proves to be true D. people are interested in it23. The passage suggests that we could have learned much more about our past than we do now if our ancestors had _.A. made more songs and danc

19、es.B. kept a written record of every past eventC. not burnt their written records in warsD. told exact stories of the most important happeningsBThe University of Salford was granted its Royal Charter in 1967. However its origins go back to 1896, when the Royal Technical Institute was founded on the

20、site of the present University. The Institute and its successors, the Royal Technical College and the Royal College of Advanced Technology, gained a reputation for their practical and challenging teaching methods and their involvement with both the local community and industry and commerce.The Unive

21、rsity today continues to build on this reputation. It has strong links with industry, commerce and the public sector and a significant percentage of its research work is funded from these sources. In August of 1996, Salford merged with University College Salford. The new institution offers students

22、at both institutions greatly increased benefits including a wider range of Student Union activities and access to extensive study resources.The Universitys attractive Peel Park campus is located one mile to the west of Manchesters city centre. Its location, close to an extensive network of roads and

23、 railways is ideal for travel to all parts of the country.The University is fortunate in having the facilities of two cities so close at hand. Salford provides for the day-to-day needs of most students and Manchester. Englands third largest city, provides excellent cultural, leisure, shopping and sp

24、orting facilities. Some of the most beautiful countryside in Britain is within easy reach of Salford. The Peak District, the Dales, the Lake District and the sandy beaches and mountains of North Wales are all less than two hours away by road.The main University campus is arranged around Peel Park on

25、 the banks of the River Irwell. The splendid red brick Peel Building, the original home of the Institute, is still in use, having been modernized in recent years. Most of the other buildings are less than twenty years old.The campus has an excellent range of facilities including snack bars, restaura

26、nts, bars, a leisure centre, a bank, a bookshop, a general store and a travel bureau.

Every student is guaranteed accommodationCThere are so many people who write to newspaper and magazines to express their opinions. Letters to the editor must carry the writers full na

30、me, address and telephone number, although the information is not necessary for publication. This requirement to provide personal particulars is a clear indication that writers are held responsible for what they say. When a writer wants his voice heard, he needs to claim ownership of his voice. Resp

31、onsibility is the name of the game.“People today prefer living together to putting their signatures on a marriage certificate because they refuse to accept responsibility for the relationship,” said social worker Ken Yip, “and this is what is causing a lot of family problems.” When we sign a paper,

32、for example, a business contract or a bank document, the signature is a seal of consent, an agreement to take the matter seriously. Most governments and many organizations will not process written complaints if they do not bear the writers signature. The absence of a signature, they explain, tells u

33、s that the writer cannot be too serious and therefore does not deserve a reply.There are people who wish to remain anonymous for various reasons. Multi-billionaire Mr. King donates generously to charity several times a year. He gives simply because he wants to help but not for the publicity his dona

34、tions may bring, and he does not want his good deeds to make news. In other cases, people insist on anonymity because they are afraid of the consequences of revealing their identity. Crime witnesses may be willing to assist the police, but most are unwilling to give their names when reporting a crim

35、e.Name or no name? The answer is very personal and lies in how much we want to get involved. We all have a name. It is a matter if responsibility to use it when we make a statement, a claim or an accusation. We all want to honor our own name, and it is only by stamping our expression of an opinion w

36、ith our own name that we honor what we say.28. What does the writer mean by saying “Responsibility is the name of the game”?A. Names are required to indicate writers responsibility for what they say B. Publication must bear the writers full name, address and phone number.C. Writers should be respons

38、 _.A. honor and writers B. identity and signatureC.anonymity and signature D. signature and responsibilityDWe cant deny that trees are useful to man in three very important ways: they provide him with wood and other products, they give him shade, and they help to prevent drought and floods.Unfortuna

39、tely, in many parts of the world man has not realized that the third of these services is the most important. In his eagerness to draw quick profit from the trees, he has cut them down in large numbers, only to find that without them he has lost the best friends he had.Two thousand years ago a rich

40、and powerful country cut down its trees to build warships, with which to gain itself an empire. It gained the empire but, without its trees, its soil became hard and poor. When the empire fell to pieces, the country found itself faced by floods and starvation.Even though a government realizes the im

41、portance of a plentiful supply of trees, it is difficult for it to persuade the villager to see this. The villager wants wood to cook his food, and he can earn money by making charcoal or selling wood to the townsman. He is usually too lazy or too careless to plant and look after trees. So unless th

42、e government has a good system of control, or can educate the people, the forests will slowly disappear.This does not only mean that the villagers sons and grandsons have fewer trees. The results are even more serious. For where there are trees, their roots break the soil up, allowing the rain to si

43、nk in and also bind the soil, thus preventing it being washed away easily, but where there are no trees, the soil becomes hard and poor. The rain falls on hard ground and flows away on the surface, causing floods and carrying away the rich topsoil, in which crops grow so well. When all the topsoil i

44、s gone, nothing remains but worthless desert.31.

47、 is a heavy rain, trees can help to prevent floods, as they can _.A. keep rain from falling down to soft groundB. cause the soil to allow rainwater to sink in C. prevent the soil from being washed awayD. make the topsoil stick together 第二节（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。

49、at a homeless shelter 50 hours a week for two weeks and then quit because you are overwhelmed(累垮), it wont do nearly as much good as if you work five hours a week all year around .Kind people usually fall into a trapthey try to do so much good but they dont realize that more is not always better . 3

50、8 You dont always have to sacrifice a lot to do something good .This doesnt mean that personal sacrifice is bad, but giving a friend the money that you and your family need to spend on food or rent isnt a great plan. Sometimes you just need to take care of yourself and you family. You can still supp

51、ort and encourage friends, but you dont have to make deep sacrifices to care for someone. 39 This is something that every new parent eventually has to figure out : having that first date away from the child can be a guilty experience ,but it is better for the child to be sent to his or her grandpare
