【题目】 Daniel Defoe, the writer of Robinson Crusoe, was born on 13 September, 1660, in London. His father was a wealthy businessman. In Defoe's early life, he experienced some of the most unusual events in English history: in 1665, 70,000 were killed by the Great Plague of London, and next year, the Great Fire of London which left only Defoe's and two other houses standing in his neighborhood. In 1667, when he was probably about seven, a Dutch fleet（舰队）sailed up the Medway by way of the River Thames and attacked the town of Chatham. His mother Annie had died by the time he was about ten.
Defoe is among the founders of the English novel, known to have used at least 198 pen names. He is most famous for his novel Robinson Crusoe, which is second only to the Bible in its number of translations. Defoe was a prolific writer, producing more than three hundred works—books, pamphlets, and journals—on diverse topics, including politics, crime, religion, marriage, psychology, and the supernatural. Defoe wrote many political tracts and often was in trouble with the government, including prison time. He was also a pioneer of business and economic journalism（新闻业）. Intellectuals and political leaders paid attention to his fresh ideas and sometimes consulted with him.
Defoe also entered the world of business as a general merchant, dealing at different times in hosiery, general woollen goods, and wine. His ambitions were great and he was able to buy a country estate and a ship, though he was rarely out of debt. He was forced to declare bankruptcy(宣布破产) in 1692. On 1 January 1684, Defoe married Mary Tuffley, the daughter of a London merchant, receiving a dowry（嫁妆）of 3,700—a huge amount by the standards of the day. With his debts and political difficulties, the marriage may have been troubled, but it lasted about 50 years and produced eight children.
Daniel Defoe died on 24 April 1731. He had probably experienced a stroke(中风). He was buried in Borough of Islington, London, where a monument was built in memory of him.

【题目】阅读下列短文，根据短文中的信息完成文后表格，写出空缺处所填单词的正确形式。（每空一词）
Yangzhou is famous for its jade production and long history in jade carving(玉雕). Over thousands of years, jade craftsmen(工匠) have devoted themselves to continuing and developing the ancient traditional skills to create many fine jade articles of various shapes and sizes.
The craft(工艺) of Yangzhou jade carving dated(追溯) from 4,000 BC, during the Xia Dynasty. Due to social development, Yangzhou jade carving was further advanced during the Han Dynasty. Many kinds of excavated jade relics(出土的玉器) showed the growth of jade carving craft over time.
The economic development of the Tang Dynasty led to a new level in Yangzhou jade carving industry. At that time, wealthy families usually had their houses decorated with jade objects. On the other hand, the ordinary people began wearing small jade pieces. At the same time, Yangzhou jade articles and jade carving craft spread all over China.
During the Song, Yuan and Ming Dynasties, Yangzhou jade shaping skills reached new heights. In the Qing Dynasty, especially in the time of Emperor Qianlong, the craft reached its peak（顶峰）. Yangzhou had to contribute(贡献) jade articles(玉器）to the emperor every year. At that time, the artistic style of “mixing the northern grandness with the southern fineness” of Yangzhou jade wares made its first appearance.
After the 1950s, Yangzhou jade carving was brought to life again. Yangzhou stays ahead in the jade industry and has therefore won many national awards. Now there are some famous jade craftsmen living in Yangzhou. With their guidance, Yangzhou jade wares of top quality are being produced, enjoying high praise from both home and abroad.
