22、oung children to read, write and surf the Internet earlier in order to prepare for an increasingly cutthroat (竞争激烈的) global economy, some little Germans are takinga less traveled path-deep into the woods. Germany has about 700 Wald kindergartens, or "forest kindergartens", in whichchildren

23、 spend their days outdoors all year round. Blackboards are replaced by the Black Forest. Erasers give way to pine cones (松果). Hall passes aren't required, but bug repellent(驱虫剂) is a good idea. The schools are a throwback (返回) to Friedrich Frobel, the German educator who opened the world's f

24、irst kindergarten, or "children's garden", more than 150 years ago.Mr. Frobel advised that young children should play in nature, free from too many numbers and letters. Only a small number of German children attend Wald kindergarten, but theirnumbers have been rising since local parent

25、 groups began setting up these programs in the mid-1990s, following the lead of a Danish community. Similar schools exist in smaller numbers in Scandinavia, Switzerland and Austria.

31、est be skillful at writing A. B. C. D. B It wasn't noon yet, but the temperature was already approaching ninety-five degrees on the morning I started my flight training at Fort Walters. It was warm for May, even for Texas, and since the base was intended to be a training ground for Vietnam, the

32、heat just made the experience all the more reliable. We knew that the lucky few who made it through the hard officer flight-training course would soon be off to a destination even hotter than Texas. That morning, however, no amount of harassment (烦恼) could have taken awayfrom the excitement of climb

33、ing into the training helicopter to actually begin learning to fly. Although it was common knowledge that only a part of those who began flight school would actually end up with wings, each of us was sure that we would soon fly "above the best". We knew from experience that the officers co

34、uld be cruel so we wondered,uneasily, what they would throw at us during this part of our training. As we stood facing the officers, waiting for instructions, a tiny bird jumped out in front of our formation (队列). It seemed confused and a little frightened. Suddenly, its mother flew across the grass

35、, as if encouraging her youngster to take to the air. Despite our efforts to remain focused on the men in command in front of us, everyone's eyes followed the birds. Even our officers turned to watch, attracted by the scene. Over and over, the tiny bird ran as fast as its little legs could move,

36、 taking off after its mom. But despite its best efforts, gravity kept it tied to the earth. Again and again,the little ball of feathers raced across the grass, flapping (拍打) its wings, only to jump up on a stone at the end of its long run. Completely ignoring the crowd of staring bystanders, the mot

38、hing,those tiny wings took hold of the air, and the baby bird flew a few feet. Then, on one last run across the front of our formation, the baby rose into the air. Two hundred wouldbe officers burst into wild cheers. We watched as the little bird followed its mother to the horizon.46. What is the pu

43、nded for those would-be officers.C An analysis of an ancient jaw (颌) containing teeth has confirmed that humansreached Western Europe well over a million years ago, far earlier than previously thought. The prehistoric fossil was unearthed last June at Atapuerca in northern Spain, along with a previo

44、usly reported tooth and stone tools used for butchering meat. At the time,scientists announced that they had dated the separate tooth to 1.2 million years ago but that more research was needed before the find could be reported in a scientific journal. The new study of the jaw confirms that the "

45、;first Europeans" arrived well over a million years ago, reports the archaeological team-led by Eudald Carbonell of the Rovira i Virgili University in Tarragona, Spain-in the latest issue of the journal Nature. The jaw's owner has been labeled a Homo antecessor-a species fist named in 1997

46、based on other human fossils found at Atapuerca. The sex isn't known, but the new human was likely aged between 30 and 40 at the time of death. "Since we now know those 1997 fossils date to 900,000 years ago, the timedifference is not great, and, at least, I think it's logical to assign

47、(确认) the jaws to Homo antecessor," said dig co-director Jose Maria Bermudez de Castro of the National Research Center on Human Evolution in Burgos, Spain. The new findings suggest that H.antecessor was most probably unique to Europe, the researchers say. The lower jawbone was discovered inside

48、a 60-foot-long(18-meter-long) cave known as Sima del Elefante. The region was originally exposed by a railway cutting through a limestone area rich in early hominin, or human, and animal remains. The complex of fossils allowed scientists to use a variety of methods to confirm the age of the fossils,

49、 including magnetic analysis, radioactive dating, and geologic studies of the piles of bones and artifacts-a necessity because the dating of human fossils remains a controversial area of research. For example, 32 stone flints also unearthed from the cave date to the same age as the fossils, accordin

50、g to Bermudez de Castro said. The flints include simple tools that were likely used by the early humans to cut up dead mammal bodies."They used the stone tools to take meat off animals, cut the muscles, and break their bones," Bermudez de Castro said. "The bones show the marks of thes

51、e tools. " Remains of other close-by animals were also used to help date the fossils, the study said.51. The jaw is valuable because_. A. it is found at Atapuerca where other fossils are found B. its owner is a Homo antecessor first named in 1997 C. its tooth is dated to 900,000 years ago D. it

52、 proves the time when the "first Europeans" came to Europe52. According to Jose Maria Bermudez de Castro,_. A. there is no great difference between the two finds B. it is logically certain that the jaw belongs to a Homo antecessor C. all the conclusions about the new find are logically rig

53、ht D. assigning the human species of the jaw is more valuable than dating it53. The underlined word most probably means "_". A. attaching great importance B. holding much attraction C. causing a lot of disagreement D. unfolding a lot of stories54. The stone flints and the remains of animal

54、s show that_. A. these early humans'main simple tools are stones B. the "first Europeans" used stones to kill animals C. the early humans made some tools from animal bones D. stones were possible tools to process animals' bodies55. Which of the following is the best title for this

55、passage? A. First Europeans Proved to Be 1.2 Million Years Old B. A New Discovery in Western Europe C. Human Beings Living 1.2 Million Years Ago D.
