    Magic is believed to have begun with the Egyptians, in 1700 BC. A magician named Dedi of Dedsnefu was reported to have performed for the pharaoh, or the king. He was also known to have entertained the slaves who built the pyramids. The "Cups and Balls" trick which he was particularly good at is still performed by magicians all over the world today.

    The ancient Greeks and Romans were also fascinated by the idea of magic. Actually, one of their main interests was the art of deception（欺骗）. This explains why at that time the priests（神父） even built magic devices into their temples. These devices made it possible for doors to open by themselves and wine to flow magically out of statues' mouths. This was done mainly to convince people that the priests were powerful.

    Magic, however, was not well accepted before the 1800s. Magicians were thought of as freaks（怪物） and were only allowed to perform in a circus（马戏团）. It was in the 19th century that the magician Robert Houdin came along and changed people's views and attitudes about magic. It was also because of Robert Houdin that many magicians were able to add Dr. or MD to their names. Today magicians try hard to find new ways to show their practiced skills. Magic is now entertainment for families all over the world.

    What would be the best title for the passage?

    A. Magical Tricks                                  B. The History of Magic

    C. Magic as Entertainment                         D. A Great Magician

    In ancient Greece, what did the priests do to show people they had unusual power?

    A. They performed magical tricks to entertain people.

    B. They made the statues in the temples drink wine as they wished.

    C. They treated the people with wine flowing down from statues' mouths.

    D. They built magic devices in the temples to make doors open by themselves.

    What did people think of magic before 1800?

    A. Magic should be used only in temples.

    B. Magic could only be performed in a circus.

    C. Magic was performed by freaks and doctors.

    The USA is a land of immigrants. Between 1815 and 1914, the world witnessed the greatest peaceful migration in its history: 35 million people, mostly Europeans, left their homelands to start new lives in America. Why did these people risk everything by leaving their homes and families?

    First, what forced emigrants to make the decision to leave? One major cause for European farmers to leave was the rise in population which in turn led to land hunger. Another was politics. There was an increased taxation（税收） and the growth of armies, and many young men fled eastern Europe to avoid being forced to join the army.

    Physical hunger provided another pressing reason. Following the collapse （衰退）of the economy of southern Italy in the 1860s, hundreds of thousands decided to start a new life in America. Religion also encouraged millions to leave the Old World.

    In short, people chose to leave their homes for social, economic and religious reasons. As a result, by 1890 among a total population of 63 million, there were more than nine million foreign-born Americans.

    But what were the attractions? First of all, there was the promise of land which was so scarce in Europe. Next, factories were calling for workers, and pay conditions were much better than back home. Men were needed to open up the West and build the long railroads, and new towns needed settlers to live in and to develop business. There was the space for religious people to practice their faith in peace.

    This immigration meant that by around the 1850s Americans of non-English had started to be more than those of English. As we know, there were losers. To start with, there were those unwilling immigrants, the slaves who had been used as a source of cheap labour. Nor should we forget the equally unlucky American Indians. By 1860 there were 27 million free whites, four million slaves and a mere 488,000 free blacks.

    Nowadays, the USA is still seen by millions as the Promised Land. As always, it remains an attractive place to those who think it will offer them a second chance.

    41．What is not the cause for people to leave their homeland?

    A. The search for religious freedom.

    B. The search for adventure.

    C. Unwillingness to join the army.

    D. Economics.

    42．Why was life of the 19th Century European farmers difficult?

    A. There was no land.

    B. There was no peace.

    C. The population had gone down.

    D. There were too many of them.

    43． Which of the following was not an attraction of the USA?

    A. Employment                                              B. A healthy life

    C. freedom of religion                                     D. Business opportunities

    44．What is the topic of this passage?

    A. The USA is still seen by millions as the Promised Land.

    B. The USA is a land of immigrants.

    C. Religion encouraged millions to leave the Old World.

    D. About one-eighth of non-native born Americans live in the USA in 1890.

    45． The American Indians __________.

    A. were as fortunate as the slaves

    B. were more unfortunate than the slaves

    C. were the most unfortunate      

    D. were as unfortunate as the slaves
