Johannes Gutenberg--the ploneer of the printing press
Johannes Gutenberg was chosen to be the most important figure of the past millennium(千年) by the media(媒体). You may not be familiar with him.Gutenberg is praised for having invented the printing press and therefore preparing the way for printing books.
He was born into a wealthy family in the city of Mainz, Germany. His early training was in goldsmithing. In 1428, he moved to Strasbourg and lived there for almost 20 years.Gutenberg used his skills in metalwork for the mass(大批量) production of books.That means that each copy of the Catholic bible(圣经) and all of its 73 books were painstakingly handwritten by men. Gutenberg fashioned a font(字体) of over 300 characters, far larger than the fonts of today. To make this possible, he invented the variable-width mold(模具) and perfected the mixture of materials used by type factories up to the present century.
The between 1450 and 1455,while preparing to produce a large Latin Bible, Gutenberg is thought to have printed a number of smaller books, a calendar, and a papal Letter of Indulgence. The Bible of 42 Lines, the oldest surviving printed book in the Western world, was completed by August 15,1456.
The invention of the modem printing press changed the way information was delivered.Even today in the computer age, we rely heavily on the printed word or text for instruction, information, and for the pleasure of reading literature.
A. Gutenberg made the world a much richer place
B. But he has certainly influenced your life in some ways
C. Gutenberg's idea was one of the greatest of all mankind
D. By 1450, Gutenberg was back in Mainz at work on a printing press
E. In fact, this invention contributed a lot of educating the masses(大众) worldwide
F. Before the spread of Gutenberg's idea, books were primarily handwritten
G. It was in Strasbourg that he probably made his first experiments with moveable type and printing

【题目】阅读:根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
Have you ever seen any students whose trousers hang so low you can see their underwear? What do you think of that? Fashionable? Some of today's teenagers are big fans of such a look..
The headmaster of a school in central Italy has asked students to stop wearing low-rise jeans that expose underwear and part of the body. His request came after a class trip. One day, he saw one boy's baggy trousers slide to his feet .
But in Italy, a nation that takes fashion very seriously, the suggestion caused a debate among parents, teachers and students. The issue is whether the headmaster's request will limit students' freedom—or whether dress in Italian schools is too casual.
“We do not want to kick fashion out.” the headmaster explained, “but extremes of fashion like this are not right in school.” Many other schools have now requested that their students also stop wearing such trousers.
Ludovica Gaudio, 14, wore extremely low trousers exposing orange underwear in class. It was cold, so she wore a matching orange scarf. “I don't really feel comfortable in those sorts of jeans,” said Sarah Lattanzi, “in winter, when dressed like that, it's quite cold and I am afraid my stomach will ache.”
A. But recently this trend has been at the center of an argument in Italian middle schools.
B. A parents' group praised the move in favor of good taste, while others advised schools to stop worrying about fashion and fix up old school buildings.
C. He pointed out that this way of dressing is not suitable for school.
D. Most students have simply ignored the request.
E. Another 14-year-old said she would probably respect the request, simply for practical reasons.
F. Requests.
G. Schools should pay attention to things more important than students' clothes.

【题目】任务型阅读
Like it or not, there will be difficult times in our lives. You might lose your job, fail in your exams or have an illness.Here are some ways not to lose hope during difficult times.
⒈Have faith.
No matter how bad the situation is, things will turn out to be good in the end. Several years ago I failed to get my master's degree. It was a really bad experience.It was of much better quality than my previous university. Experiences like this strengthen my belief that having faith is important during difficult times.
⒉Be around supportive people.
Going through difficult times is hard, and going through them alone is even harder. You need a group of positive people who can support you.If you don't, my suggestion is to start looking for one. Don't wait until you need it, because it will be too late by then. You need the community before difficult times come.
⒊Help others.
An additional benefit of being in a good community is that it encourages you to think about other people. It pushes you to help others and, therefore, think about other people As a result, your situation won't look as bad as it would be otherwise. Often the situation looks worse than it really is because we give too much attention. Shifting (移开) some of your attention away will put the situation in a better view.
A. Your community helps a lot.
B. Whatever it is, it's important not to lose hope.
C. I changed my attitude towards failure.
D. In this way you take your focus away from yourself.
E. But I got a scholarship at an overseas university later.
F. You must believe that things will work out well eventually.
G. You should become part of a community that cares for one another.
