　　In Europe, men do not usually wear skirts. But the Scottish national clothing for men is a kind of skirt. It is called a kilt. The Scottish like to be different. They are also proud of their country and its history, and they feel that the kilt is part of that history. That's why the men still wear kilts at traditional (传统的) dances and on national holidays. They believe they are wearing the same clothes that Scottish men always used to wear.

　　That's what they believe. However, kilts are not really so old. Before 1730, Scottish men wore a long shirt and blanket around their shoulders. These clothes got in the way when the men started to work in factories. So, in 1730 a factory owner changed the blanket into a skirt; the kilt. That's how the first kilt was made.

　　Then, in the late 1700s Scottish soldiers in the British Army began to wear kilts. One reason for this was national sentiment ( = feelings) . The Scottish soldiers wanted to be different from the English soldiers. The British Army probably had a different reason. A Scottish soldier in a kilt was always easy to find! The Scottish soldier fought very hard and became famous. The kilt was part of the fame, and in the early 1800s men all around Scotland began to wear kilts.

　　These kilts had colorful stripes (条纹) going up and down and across. In the 1700s and early 1800s, the color of the stripes had no special meaning. Men sometimes owned kilts in several different colors. But later the colors became important to the Scottish families. By about 1850, most families had special colors for their kilts. For example, men from the Campbell family had kilts with green, yellow and blue stripes. Scottish people often believe that the colors of the kilts are part of their family history. In fact, each family just chose the color they liked best.

　　This is not the story you will hear today if you are in Scotland. Most Scottish people still believe that kilts are as old as Scotland and that the colors are as old as the Scottish families. Sometimes feelings are stronger than facts!

1．This text is mainly about ________.

A．soldiers' clothes in Britain

B．the history of Scotland

C．a special kind of skirt

2．Which of the following is true according to the passage?

A．The English soldiers were the first to wear kilts.

D．The factory owner made the first kilt from long shirts to make his workers different from others.

3．Scottish soldiers were dressed in kilts partly because of ________.

A．the colors

B．the weather

C．national sentiment

D．the design

4．The colors of the kilts are ________.

[　　]

A．not part of the Scottish family history

B．older than the Scottish family history

C．for the Campbell family only

D．mainly green, yellow and blue

5．From the last paragraph we can infer that ________.

[　　]

A．the European people are full of strong feelings

C．the British like to do things on feelings, not on facts

D．the Scottish prefer to keep their tradition rather than believe the fact

阅读理解：

　　Our boat floated on, between walls of forest too thick to allow us a view of the land we were passing through, though we knew from the map that our river must from time to time be passing through chains of hills which crossed the jungle plains．Nowhere did we find a place where we could have landed：where the jungle did not actually spread right down into the river, banks of soft mud prevented us going ashore．In any case, what would we have sailed by landing?The country was full of snakes and other dangerous creatures, and the jungle was so thick that one would be able to advance only slowly, cutting one’s way with knives the whole way．So we stayed in the boat, hoping we reached the sea, a friendly fisherman would pick us up and take us to civilization．

　　We lived on fish, caught with home-made net of string(we had no hooks), and fruits and nuts we could pick up out of the water．As we had no fire, we had to eat everything, including the fish, raw I had never tasted raw fish before, and I must say I did not much enjoy the experience; perhaps sea fish which do not live in the mud are less tasteless．After eating my raw fish, I lay back and dreamed of such things as fried chicken and rice, and ice-cream．In the never-ending damp heat of the jungle, ice-cream was a particularly frequent dream．

　　As for water, there was a choice：we could drink the muddy river water, or die of thirst．We drank the water．Men who had just escaped what had appeared to be certain death lose all worries about such small things as diseases caused by dirty water．In fact, none of us suffered from any illness as a result．

　　One day we passed another village, but fortunately nobody saw us．We did not wish to risk being taken prisoners a second time：we might not be so lucky to escape in a stolen boat again．

(1)

What they could see in the boat was only ________．
[　　]
A．	high wall
B．	villagers from time to time
C．	vast land
D．	heavy woods

(2)

They couldn’t land because ________．
[　　]
A．	the mud on the shore was too soft
B．	the forest was too thick to let them go through
C．	they could not find the mark on the map
D．	they could not find anyone to lead them out of the forest

(3)

The passage infers that the forest was ________．
[　　]
A．	rich of fruits and animals to be served as food
B．	not very thick as they could advance slowly by cutting the branches
C．	full of various dangerous beings
D．	full of ancient trees

(4)

阅读理解：

　　Not all memories are sweet．Some people spend all their lives trying to forget bad experiences．Violence and traffic accidents can leave people with terrible physical and emotional scars．Often they relive these experiences in nightmares．

　　Now American researchers think they are close to developing a pill, which will help people forget bad memories．The pill is designed to be taken immediately after a frightening experience．They hope it might reduce, or possibly wipe out, the effect of painful memories．

　　In November, experts tested a drug on people in the US and France．The drug stops the body releasing(释放)chemicals that fix memories in the brain．So far the research has suggested that only the emotional effects of memories may be reduced, not that the memories are wiped out．They are not sure to what degree people's memories are affected．

　　The research has caused a great deal of argument．Some think it is a bad idea, while others support it．Supporters say it could lead to pills that prevent or treat soldiers' troubling memories after war．They say that there are many people who suffer from terrible memories．

　　“Some memories can ruin people's lives．They come back to you when you don't want to have them in a daydream or nightmare．They usually come with very painful emotions,”said Roger Pitman, a professor of psychiatry at Harvard Medical School．“This could relieve a lot of that suffering．”

　　But those who are against the research say that maybe the pills can change people's memories and changing memories is very dangerous because memories give us our identity(特质)．They also help us all avoid the mistakes of the past．

　　“All of us can think of bad events in our lives that were terrible at the time but make us who we are．I'm not sure we want to wipe those memories out,”said Rebecca Dresser, a medical ethicist．

(1)

The passage is mainly about ________．
[　　]
A．	a new medical invention
B．	a new research on the pill
C．	a way of wiping out painful memories
D．	an argument about the research on the pill

(2)

The drug tested on people can ________．
[　　]
A．	cause the brain to fix memories
B．	stop people remembering bad experiences
C．	prevent body producing certain chemicals
D．	wipe out the emotional effects of memories

(3)

We can infer from the passage that ________．
[　　]
A．	people doubt the effects of the pills
B．	the pill will certainly stop people's emotional memories
C．	taking the pill will do harm to people's physical health
D．	the pill has already been produced and used by the public in America

(4)

Which of the following does Rebecca Dresser agree with in the last paragraph?
[　　]
A．	some memories can ruin people's lives．
B．	people want to get rid of bad memories．
C．	experiencing bad events makes us different from others．
D．	the pill will reduce people's sufferings from bad memories．

(5)

You may probably read the passage in a ________．
[　　]
