Archaeology as a profession faces two major problems. It is the poorest of the poor. Only small sums are available for excavating(挖掘)and even less is available
for publishing the results and preserving the sites once excavated. Yet archaeologists deal with priceless objects every day. Besides, there is the problem of unlawful excavation, resulting in museum-quality pieces being sold to businessmen at the highest price..
I would like to make a suggestion that would at once provide money for archaeology and reduce the amount of diggings against law. You might say that professionals excavate to get knowledge, not money. Moreover, ancient artifacts(古器
物) are part of our global cultural heritage(遗产), which should be there for all to appreciate, not sold at the highest price. I agree. Sell nothing that has scientific value. But, you might reply, everything that comes out of the ground has scientific value. Here,
we disagree. In theory, you may be correct in saying that every artifact has hidden scientific value.
People can not help appreciate every unearthed treasure but there is not enough money even to put the finds in good order; as a result, they cannot be found again and become as inaccessible as if they had never been discovered. Indeed, with the help of the Internet, sold artifacts could be more reachable than are the pieces stored in museum basements. Before sale, each could be photographed and the list of the purchasers could be maintained on the computer. A purchaser could even be required to agree to return the piece if it should become needed for scientific purposes.
What’s the problems that archaeology as a profession has to face?
A. Money and unlawful excavation B. Effectively duplicates.
C. Scientific purposes. D. Excavation law.
To let most people enjoy ancient artifacts, the practical way could be_______.
A. putting them in the museum B. having sold artifacts returned
C. making use of the Internet D. solving the money problem
Which of the following four suggestions about archaeology is from the author?
A. No selling of any unearthed ancient artifacts.
B. Some money should be raised for the purpose.
C. Selling some unearthed ancient artifacts and having them returned when needed.
D. Ancient artifacts, our global cultural heritage, should be evenly shared by us all.

While I was having dinner with a well-known author and lecturer, our conversation drifted to money. “I have enough money,” he told me casually. “I don’t need any more money.”
“Of course you can say that,” I thought to myself. “You get fifteen thousand dollars for a lecture.”
Then I caught my thought process, and pondered(仔细考虑)more deeply on his statement. Is he satisfied because he has a lot of money, or does he have a lot of money because he chooses to be satisfied?
I know people with more money than this man, and they still don’t have enough. And I know people with very little money, and they always have enough. So is enoughness something that happens to us when we reach a certain level, or is it an experience we can choose and celebrate at any time?
My friends Adrian and Carey live in a humble cottage in the rainforest. They have quite a modest income, no telephone, and they walk around naked most of the time. I think they are the happiest people I know. They wake up with the sun, love each other very much, and welcome guests with a full and open heart. They appreciate every moment of their lives, have no distraction games going, and are not waiting for the big break around the corner. When I am with them, the predominant(主要的)feeling I have is, “It’s all right here—why would anyone want anything more?”
Ram Dass used to say, “There are three kinds of people in the world: those who say, ‘Too much!’; those who say, ‘Not enough!’; and those who say, “Ah, just right!’”; Since “too much” of one thing implies “not enough” of another, there are really only two approaches to life: lack or contentment.
【小题1】From the first paragraph, we can infer that the lecturer ___________.
A.was living a happy life | B.was careless about his money |
C.was satisfied with his life | D.was rich enough to live a happy life |
A.it’s money that is of importance | B.it’s not money but the attitude that matters |
C.we don’t have to have much money | D.we won’t have enough money in life |
A.They have no guests. | B.They have all they want. |
C.They live a very hard life. | D.They live a very happy life. |
A.not enough or too much | B.lack or too much |
C.lack or contentment | D.just right or enough |
A.Nothing is better than a contented mind. |
B.Where there is a will, there is a way. |
C.Practice makes perfect. |
D.Better late than never. |

Money! I 40 deep into thought. Is it money that comes between us? Money itself has no 41 ; yet it cannot simply be 42 to be good or bad. The problem 43 what attitude we have towards it.
At present, we have a more 44 material life than before, but we’re becoming more and more 45 . Why? In my opinion, the 46 is the change in people’s personal 47 . They wrongly believe that 48 money should be their only aim in life, so they 49 all sorts of ways they can to 50 this aim.
