However, the waterway was at the mercy of severe storms and when two ferries overturned in 1955, killing 168 people, public anger convinced the government of the need for a bridge.

With the help of audiovisual aids, computer-_____32_____ instruction and other devices, a museum can bring a subject alive in ways that compare _____33_____ with a television programme, or a book. The kind of help that museums can give to adults can equally well be given to children, and to teachers whose pupils have come to the museum for specific _____34_____ .At a time when the demand for public accountability has never been greater, it is worth remembering that many museums receive substantial grants towards what is supposed to be stimulating educational _____35_____ for the general public.Museums accepting these grants, yet offering little more than the_____ 36_____ public lecture, or very minimal help to schoolteacher arriving at the museum with their pupils, therefore risk having such financial support severely cut back, or even _____37_____.Why is this done?

Given that this is their aim, they should not just spread facts and theories. They should show the visitor exactly what to do with the information provided.

Under pressure from activists following the death of an elephant in 2014, and thanks to new guidelines from the nation's main zoo organization, Woodland Park officials decided to _____45_____ one of its most popular exhibits and place the elephants elsewhere.Nearly two centuries after the first modern zoo opened in London's Regent's Park, the very concept of a place where families can visit and observe animals is being _____46_____ like never before. Across the US and around the world, zoos are finding that balancing the demands of entertainment, education and conservation is increasingly _____47_____. Ethical(伦理的)concerns have been coupled with _____48_____ fears—both for people and for animals—following an incident in May when officials at the Cincinnati Zoo shot and killed a 17-year-old gorilla named Haram be to protect a child who'd fallen into the exhibit.

'I thought the only thing keeping me going is the skate to and from work. I was looking for something new/ he said. "I saw a Lonely Planet guide to Australia. There was a map on the back. Perth was on one side and Brisbane on the other and I thought, 'that'll do”.He decided to prepare by skateboarding from John O'Groats to Lands End: the two points further apart on the British mainland. That 1,442 kilometre journey, which he finished in June, took just over a month, during which an infected blister (水泡)swelled to the 'size of a tennis ball’. Crossing Australia on a skateboard brough unique challenges. The wind caused by huge road trains, the lorries that thunder across the Outback, was so powerful that he was sometimes blown off his board. Multiple blisters and aching ankles, toes and feet, have kept him in almost constant pain for the last six weeks. ,I feel like an old man. I'm not sure that anyone has ever had this many blisters/ he said. Temperatures of 40cC and above mean that he has used more than a dozen tubes of factor 30 sunscreen. 'There have been moments where I thought "this is ridiculous. I have to rest”,but I never considered giving up.’Skating an average of 50 kilometres a day and hitting speeds of up to 50kph on downhill runs, he left Perth. Western Australia, and skated across the fearsome Nullarbor Plain into South Australia. After reaching Adelaide he made his way to Melbourne and from there to Sydney A support team of seven people trailed from all the way in a four-wheel drive vehicle, which included camping equipment for night shops. The journey has smashed the previous record for a long-distance skateboard, set by an American, Jack Smith, who covered 4,800 kilometres across the US in 2003. David Comthwaite was less than three kilometres from the end of his epic journey when he hit a hole and was thrown off his skateboard, suffering cuts and bruises to his shoulders, knees, hips and elbows. ‘I was only going to 40km at the time, so although it wasn't pretty; it could have been a lot worse,’ he said.56.

He was given a guidebook about Australia.51. What made David fall of his skateboard several times in Australia?A. The injuries on his feet.B. The thunderstorms in the Outback.C.

He was sunburned due to the misuse of sunscreen.(B)Often enough the craft worker's place of employment in ancient Greece was set in rural isolation. Potter, for instance, found it convenient to locate their workshops near their source of clay, regardless of its relation to the center of settlement. At Corinth and Athens, however, two of the best-known potters' quarters were situated on the cities’ outskirts, and potters and makers of terra-cotta figurines (陶制俑)were also established well within the city of Athens itself Athenian black-figure and red-figure decoration, which emphasized human figures rather than animal images, was adopted between 630 and 530 B.C.: its distinctive color was the result of the skillful adjustments of the kiln’s (窑) temperature during an extended three-stage period. Whether it was the potters or the vase-painters who initiated changes in firing is unclear; the functions of making and decorating were usually divided between them, but neither group can have been so specialized that they did not share in the concerns of the other.The broad use of terra-cotta was such that workers in clay could generally afford to limit . themselves to either decorated ware and housewares like cooking pots and storage jars or building materials. Some sixth-and fifth-century B.C. Athenian pottery establishments are known to have concentrated on a limited range of fine ware, but a rural pottery establishment on the island of Thasos produced many types of pottery and roof tiles too, presumably to meet local demand. Molds were used to create particular effects for some products or to facilitate mass production. There were also a number of poor-quality figurines and painted pots produced in quantity by easy, inexpensive means, as numerous featureless statuettes and unattractive cases testify.60. The passage mainly discusses ancient Greek pottery and its__________.A. unusual materialsB. production techniquesC. similarity to other craftsD. resemblance to earlier pottery61 . Which of the following advantage did terra-cotta have?A. It had a lasting shine on the surface.B. It could be used for many purposes.C. It did not break during the firing process.D. It was less expensive than other available materials.62. Which of the following statements is true of ancient Greek potters and vase painters?A. They seldom produced inferior ware.B. They stuck to their way of producing pieces.C. It is almost impossible to draw a clear line between them.D. It is hard to explain why they didn't make any human images’(C)How does one protect elephants from ivory poachers (象牙偷猎者)in an African reserve the size of a small country? This task typically falls to park rangers who may spend weeks patrolling the bush on foot sometimes lacking basic devices such as radios, tents or even socks. They are largely losing to poachers.To stop the losses, conservationists are increasingly turning to technology. The latest tools include real-time tracking collars, developed by the Kenya-based nonprofit Save the Elephants and currently being used on more than 325 animals in 10 countries--- The organization's researchers wrote algorithms (算法)that use signals from the collars to automatically detect when an animal stops moving (indicating it may be dead), slows down (suggesting it may be injured) or heads toward a danger zone, such as an area known for poaching. Unlike traditional tracking collars, many of which send geographical coordinates infrequently or store them onboard for later retrieval, these devices' real-time feeds enable rangers to react quickly. In several cases, they have led to arrests.The amount of data produced by the new collars quickly became overwhelming, however. So Save the Elephants partnered with Vulcan- a company created by Microsoft co-founder Paul Allen—which engineered an open-source tracking application for iOS and the Web called the Domain Awareness System. The DAS app sends alerts when a potential problem arises—if field sensors pick up on human intruders, for example. It also integrates a wealth of other information, including the positions of nearby rangers, vehicles and aircraft, as well as detected gunshots, camera trap feeds, arrest and crime-scene records, weather, and more.Some of the technologies used in the collars—GPS, onboard data storage, phone or satellite receivers—are found in everyday devices, including smartphones. Yet in this case these tools are being applied in an exceptional way, according to Jake Wall, geospatial science adviser for Save the Elephants. It is the first time all the data that DAS uses have been presented in one neat feed and map, he says.An early version of the program is being tested at four sites in Africa, with a 10-site expansion planned for September. At Lewa Wildlife Conservancy in Kenya, DAS is already seen as a game changer after its launch less than a year ago, says Batian Craig, director of 51 Degrees, a private company that oversees security operations at Lewa.63. The latest tracking collars are different from traditional ones in that __________.A. they can send signals immediatelyB. they withdraw information at any timeC. they can store more information onboardD. they send geographical coordinates infrequently64. Why did Save the Elephants partner with Vulcan?A. It has met with financial problems.B. It hopes to make a big profit in the future.C. It doesn't know how to advance its collar.D. It can't handle the collected data very well.65. What does Batian Craig say about DAS?A. It will make a big difference.B. It was launched in September.C. It will have a new version soon.D. It needs to be tested at more sites.66. Which of the following might be the best title of the passage?A. How Elephants LiveB. Find My ElephantC. Elephant-Friendly AreasD.

Discovered accidentally in 1974, in Xi'an Province, in China, when local farmers were digging for water, over 8.000 baked clay figures have since been found.__________67__________ Emperor Qin was one of the most important rulers in Chinese history. After becoming emperor of the state of Qin at the age of 13. he conquered six other states over the next 25 years, and became the first emperor of a united China.In Qin's time, the ancient Chinese believed that their "afterlife" was very similar to the life on earth. Consequently, when they died and were buried, objects which would be useful to them in the next life were buried with them. __________ 68__________ In addition, the emperor ordered an army to be built so that his palace would be protected.__________69__________ In ancient China, however, they used a completely different method.A huge production line was established to make the tens of thousands of individual human and animal statues which Emperor Qin demanded. All the different pails of the body such as legs, arms, and heads were made separately and then assembled. The same process was also used for other pieces such as ears, beards, and armour. When the whole figure was completed, it was baked in an oven.The terracotta figures are life-like and life-sized. Each one has a different facial expression and hairstyle, as well as uniforms which indicate their job and rank. Among the figures there are ordinary soldiers, archers, and officers, together with horses. They were discovered arranged in military formation ready to protect the emperor in the afterlife.In 1987, the tomb and army of Emperor Qin were declared a World Heritage site by UNESCO. __________70__________ The Terracotta Army clearly deserves this honour, as nearly two million people from all over the world visit it each year.IV.

Since people told stories instead of writing them, the stories changed in between places and with each storyteller. Each new storyteller made changes to the stories based on his own traditions and culture. For example, many cultures have stories like the raven tale about how people got light. In these tales, though, the main character is another type of animal.Next the characters in folktales are similar They are usually ordinary characters who do extraordinary things. They usually have only one or two strong characteristics. For instance, thechief in the Raven story is selfish and not very smart. But Raven is very generous—he wants to help people. And he's very clever as he finds a way to get the light . In addition, often the characters in folktales are not people but animals with human qualities. They talk, make plans, and have strong emotions. Small animals such as the popular spider and turtle play this role in West African stories. In summary, the characters of folktales are simple but often clever in achieving their goals. Finally, the plot, or what happens in the folktale, is usually exciting. Most folktales begin with an expression like “a long time ago" and then move very quickly into the story, which starts with a problem. For instance, a strong, bad character often gives a weaker character a task and promises something if he completes the task. The weaker character often uses clever tricks, special skills, or magic to complete the task. In the end of a folktale, the good characters usually win and the bad characters lose. In conclusion, the plot of a folktale is interesting.So, in summary, we know that the tradition of folktales is very old. They are told all over the world, but they share several of the same features, as said above.V.
