27、ns an old manuscript in a library in Paris-the travel diary of the Ibn Battuta.Almost two centuries before Columbus, this young Moroccan set off for Mecca, returning home three decades later as one of historys great travelers. Driven by curiosity, he journeyed to remote comers of the Islamic world,

28、traveling through 44 modern countries, three times as far as Marco Polo. Little celebrated in the West,his name is well known among Arabs. In his hometown of Tangier, a square, a hotel, a caf, a ferry boat, and even a hamburger are named after him.Ibn Battuta stayed in Mecca as a student for several

29、 years, but the urge to travel soon took over. In one adventure, he traveled to India seeking profitable employment with the sultanthe Muslim ruler of Delhi. On the way, he described his group being attacked in the open country by 80 men on foot, and two horsemen:“.I was hit by an arrow and my horse

30、 by another, but God in his grace preserved me.”In Delhi, the sultan gave him the position of judge, based on his previous study at Mecca. But the sultan had an unpredictable character, and Ibn Battuta looked for an opportunity to leave. When the sultan offered to finance a trip to China, he agreed.

31、 Ibn Battuta set off in three ships, but misfortune struck while he was still on the shore. Asudden storm grounded and broke up two ships, scattering（散播）treasure and drowning many people and horses. As he watched, the third ships, with all his belongings and slaves-one carrying his child-was carried

32、 out to sea and never heard from again.After a lifetime of amazing adventures, Ibn Battuta was finally ordered by the Sultan of Morocco to return home to share his wisdom with the world.

33、ere to read about his unparalleled journeys.60. What can we learn about Ibn Battuta from the passage?A. He had great interest in the Islamic world. B.

35、 Battuta B. A Visitor to Mecca C. The Travels of Ibn Battuta D. Desire for AdventuresCCulture and CuisineThe United States is known for jazz and blue jeans. But travel to Paris and ask your average French citizen about American cuisine（烹饪）and hes likely to an answer,“McDonalds.”Ask the same thing of

36、 any American citizen on any American street and Im afraid youd get the same answer, or something close to it.Hamburgers and hotdogs and fries are all fine, but with American malls and other outlets standardizing everything from clothing to food, the sad truth is that American cuisine is becoming mo

37、re homogeneousall the sameno matter where you live. True, many Americans are eating more varied foods these days, but these are largely the cuisines of immigrant groups, and they are quite likely to be affected by homogenization of American cuisine.So what exactly is American cuisine? Well, to some

38、extent it is a reflection of our melting pot culture, meaning that Europeans made huge contributions in the form of wheat, dairy products, pork, beef and poultry. But American cuisine also includes products that once were known only to the New World, including potatoes, corn, pumpkin, sweet potatoes

39、, and peanuts. The one region of the country where you still find all these things in daily use is the Deep South. The South lost the Civil War, but children of the southerners are winning the battle to preserve and advance their cooking traditionsand in this case one of the few cuisines can truly b

40、e called American, which is why were pleased to have Low Country cuisine in this issue of food creation. Thats right, grits and gravy are back in a big way in cities like Charleston and Savannah. Truth is, they never really left, but up until a decade ago Low Country cuisine was more common at home

41、than in restaurants.In fact, a large number of tourists now go to the lower Atlantic region in order to experience this extraordinary cuisine for themselves. Time will tell whether Low Country cuisine becomes popular in other regions of the country in the way that, say, Italian cuisine has, but its

42、amazing and heartening to see one of our true cultural treasures enjoying renewed popularity in these increasingly homogeneous times.63.

Critical and disapproving.DThe Enigma (谜）of BeautyThe search for beauty spans centuries and continents. Paintings of Egyptians dating back over 4,000 years show both men and women painting their na

46、ils and wearing makeup. In 18th-century France, wealthy noblemen wore large wigs (假发）of long, white hair to make themselves attractive. Today, people continue to devote a lot of time and money to their appearance.There is at least one good reason for the desire to be attractive：beauty is power. Stud

47、ies suggest that good-looking people make more money, get called on more often in class, and are regarded as friendlier.But what exactly is beauty? Its difficult to describe it clearly, and yet we know it when we see it. And our awareness of it may start at a very early age. In one set of studies, s

48、ix-month-old babies were shown a series of photographs. The faces on the pictures had been rated for attractiveness by a group of college students .In the studies, the babies spent more time looking at the attractive faces than the unattractive ones.The idea that even babies can judge appearance mak

49、es perfect sense to many researchers. In studies by psychologists, men consistently showed a preference for women with larger eyes, fuller lips, and a smaller nose and chin while women prefer men with large shoulders and a narrow waist, According to scientists, the mind unconsciously tells men and w

50、omen that these traits the full lips, chear skin , strong shoulders equal health and genetic well-being.Not everyone thinks the same way, however. Our hardwiredness can be changed by all sorts of expectations mostly cultural, say C. Loring Brace, an anthropologist at the University of Michigan. What

51、 is considered attractive in one culture might not be in another. Look at most Western fashion magazines：the women on the pages are thin. But is this perfect body type for women worldwide? Scientists answer is no; what is considered beautiful is subjective and varies around the world. They found nat

52、ive peoples in southeast Peru preferred shapes regardedoverweight in Western cultures. For better or worse, beauty plays a role in our lives. But it is extremely difficult to describe exactly what makes one person attractive to another. Although there do seem to be certain physical traits considered

53、 universally appealing, it is also true that beauty does not always keep to a single, uniform standard. Beauty really is, as the saying goes, in the eye of the beholder.67. Peoples ideas about beauty _A. have existed since ancient times B. can be easily describedC. have little influence on a persons

54、 success D. are based upon strict criteria68. ln Paragraph 3, the babies in the study _.A. were rated for their appearance B. were entered in a beauty contestC. were shown photos of a group of college students D. were able to tell attractive faces from unattractive ones69. The underlined word “trait

55、s” in Paragraph 4 probably means _A. qualities B. measurements C. judgments D. standards70. We can learn from the passage that _A. the ideas of beauty vary as people up B. the search for beauty is rooted in lack of confidenceC. the standards for beauty are based on scientific researchesD. the understanding of beauty depends on cultural backgrounds根据短文内容，从短文后的七个选项中选出恩给你填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。Virtual （虚拟）TeamsVirtual teams are a great way to enable teamwork in situations where people are no
