18、old plates and silver wares for royal families, Tang Dynasty tri-colour glazed figurines（小雕像） of women and paintings, have recently been on exhibit in the Dutch city of Assert.All of the exhibited items are from Shaanxi Province, China. Its provincial capital Xian was the most populous（人口多的） city in

19、 the world and once the capital of the Tang Dynasty. The Tang period is generally regarded as a high point in Chinese civilisation-equal to, or better than that of the earlier Han Dynasty （202 BC220 AD）, a golden age of Chinese culture.Several years ago, said Dirk Verlaak, vice-mayor of Maaseik, his

20、 city and Assen teamed up to host history and culture exhibitions of Chinas first two imperial dynasties, the Qin （221 BC207 BC） and the Han.

24、tage at Dunhuang Mogao Grottoes in a remote Chinese desert might have long been destroyed by sand, weather or humans.Born and raised in Shanghai, Fan has spent half a century fighting an uphill battle to preserve the ancient Buddhist wall painting at Dunhuang, in Northwest Chinas Gansu Province. The

25、 1 651-year-old Dunhuang Mogao Grottoes are a huge collection of Buddhist artmore than 2 000 buddha figures and 45 000 square meters of paintings spread among 735 caves. It is Chinas first UNESCO World Heritage Site.Archaeologist Fan was sent to Dunhuang after graduation from Peking University in 19

26、63. While in Dunhuang, a remote village in the desert then, Fan lived in an abandoned temple. At first, she did not even dare to go out to the toilet at night. To protect the treasures from sand and dampness, Fan and other workers put doors on the caves, planted trees and started monitoring temperat

27、ure and humidity in the caves. They also controlled the number of visitors.In the late 1990s, with tourism booming nationwide since national holidays were extended, the local government planned to go public with Dunhuang Mogao Grottoes, but found Fan firmly in their way. “The heritage would have bee

28、n destroyed if it had been listed,” she said.Dunhuang Academy has now photographed and cataloged online all the sculptures and paintings. “Despite our efforts to minimize damage, we cant completely stop them from being eroded. But the digital database will last.”Fan was grateful when her husband joi

29、ned her in Dunhuang in 1986 after 19 years of separation. Her two sons grew up in Shanghai with their aunt. “I have not been a good mother or wife. With regard to my family, Im full of guilt,” she said. Fan, 79, retired two years ago as the director of Dunhuang Academy but continues her efforts as a

30、 national political adviser.28. Which of the following measures didnt Fan Jinshi take to protect Dunhuang Mogao Grottoes?A. Opening Dunhuang Mogao Grottoes to the public extensively.B. Planting trees and stopping the Dunhuang Mogao Grottoes being eroded.C. Picturing and classifying all the sculpture

31、s and paintings online.D. Putting doors on the caves and monitoring temperature and humidity.29. When was Fan separated from her husband?A. In 1963.B. In 1967.C. In 1986.D. In the late 1990s.30. The phrase “in their way” in Paragraph 4 means _.A. Go to a place.B. Be in favor of something.C. Reject s

32、omething.D. Give in to something.31. What kind of person do you think Fan is?A. Considerate and easy-going.B. kind and intelligent.C. Humorous and sweet-tempered.D. Devoted and persistent.DAre some people born clever, and others born stupid? Or is intelligence developed by our environment and our ex

33、periences? Strangely enough, the answer to both these questions is yes. To some extent our intelligence is given to us at birth, and no amount of special education can make a genius out of a child born with low intelligence. On the other hand, a child who lives in a boring environment will develop h

34、is intelligence less than one who lives in rich and varied surroundings. Thus the limits of a persons intelligence are fixed at birth, but whether or not he reaches those limits will depend on his environment. This view, now held by most experts, can be supported in a number of ways.It is easy to sh

35、ow that intelligence is to some extent something we are born with. The closer the blood relationship between two people, the closer they are likely to be in intelligence. Thus if we take two unrelated people at random（随机地） from the population, it is likely that their degrees of intelligence will be

36、completely different. If on the other hand we take two identical（完全相同的） twins they will very likely be as intelligent as each other. Relations like brothers and sisters, parents and children, usually have similar intelligence, and this clearly suggests that intelligence depends on birth.Imagine now

37、that we take two identical twins and put them in different environments. We might send one, for example, to a university and the other to a factory where the work is boring. We would soon find differences in intelligence developing, and this indicates that environment as well as birth plays a part.

38、This conclusion is also suggested by the fact that people who live in close contact with each other, but who are not related at all, are likely to have similar degrees of intelligence.32. Which of these sentences best describes the writers point in Para. 1?A. To some extent, intelligence is given at

39、 birth.B. Intelligence is developed by the environment.C. Some people are born clever and others born stupid.D. Intelligence is fixed at birth, but is developed by the environment.33. It is suggested in this passage that _.A. unrelated people are not likely to have different intelligenceB. close rel

40、ations usually have similar intelligenceC. the closer the blood relationship between people, the more different they are likely to be in intelligenceD. people who live in close contact with each other are not likely to have similar degrees of intelligence34. In Para. 1, the word “surroundings” means

41、 _.A. intelligenceB. lifeC. environmentsD. housing35. The best title for this article would be _.A. On IntelligenceB. What Intelligence MeansC. We are Born with IntelligenceD.

44、l relics, rural architecture and cultural landscapes. 38 For example, some are in the north Chinas Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region.Despite great achievements during the years of effort, problems still exist. 39 Historic relics get stolen and antiques are taken abroad secretly.The head of the SACH s

45、aid that people has faced a challenge to the protection of cultural relics for a long time.
