The oldest stone buildings in the world are the pyramids. They have stood for nearly 5,000 years, and it seems likely that they will continue to stand for thousands of years yet. There are over eighty of them scattered along the banks of the Nile, some of which are different in shape from the true pyramids. The most famous of these are the “Step” pyramid and the “Bent” pyramid.
Some of the pyramids still look as much alike as they must have been when they were built thousands of years ago. Most of the damage suffered by the others has been at the hands of men who were looking for treasure or. more often, for stone to use in modern buildings. The dry climate of Egypt has helped to keep the pyramid, in good condition, and their very shape has made them less likely to fall into ruin. These are good reasons why they can still be seen today, but perhaps the most important one is that they were planned to last forever.
The “Step” pyramid had to be on the west side of the Nile, the side on which the sun set. This was for spiritual reasons. It also had to stand well above the level of the river to protect it against the regular floods. It could not be too far from the Nile, however, as the stones to build it needed to be carried in boats down the river to the nearest point. Water transport was, of course, much easier than land transport. The builders also had to find a rock base, which was not likely to crack under the great weight of the pyramid. Finally, it had to be near the capital, or better still, near the king's palace so that he could visit it easily to personally check the progress being made on the final resting place for his body.
1．Which of the following statements is TRUE about the “Step” pyramid?
[ ]
A．It is unlikely to fall into ruin in the near future.
B．It was built on the sands along the Nile.
C．It is the oldest building on earth.
D．It is the most famous of the true pyramids.
2．The most important reason why some pyramids remain in good condition is that ________.
[ ]
A．people have taken care of them
B．it doesn't rain often in Egypt
C．they were well designed
D．the government has protected them from damage
3．Most of the damage to the pyramids has been caused by ________.
[ ]
A．the regular floods
B．the dry climate of Egypt
C．people searching for gold
D．people in search of building materials
4．Why did the Egyptians build the pyramids along the banks of the Nile?
[ ]
A．Because they believed in their god.
B．Because it was difficult to find a large rock base far from the Nile.
C．Because the river helped a lot in the transport of building materials.
D．Because it was not easy to choose a suitable place for the pyramids.

The twentieth century saw greater changes than any century before changes for the better, changes for the worse, changes that brought a lot of benefits to human beings ,changes that put man in danger .Many things caused the changes ,but ,in my opinion ,the most important was the progress in science.
Scientific research in physics and biology has vastly broadened our views. It has given us a deeper knowledge of the structure of matter and of the universe ,it has brought us a better understanding of the nature of life and of its continuous development .Technology in the application of science has made big advances that have benefited us in nearly every part of life.
The continuation of such activities in the twenty-first century will result in even greater advantages to human beings : in pure science―a wider and deeper knowledge in all fields of learning ;in applied science―a more reasonable sharing of material benefits ,and better protection of the environment.
Sadly ,however ,there is another side to the picture .The creativity of science has been employed in doing damage to mankind .The application of science and technology to the development and production of weapons of mass destruction has created a real danger to the continued existence of the human race on this planet .We have seen this happen in the case of nuclear weapons ,Although their actual use has so far occurred only in the Second World War ,the number of nuclear weapons that were produced and made ready for use was so large that if the weapons had actually been used ,the result could have been the ruin of the human race ,as well as of many kinds of animals.
William Shakespeare said. “The web of our life is of a mingled yarn（纱线）,good and ill together. “The above brief review of the application of only one part of human activities―science seems to prove what Shakespeare said. But does it have to be so ?Must the ill always go together with the good ?Are we biologically programmed for war?
72．Which of the following best shows the structure of the passage?
（①=Paragraph 1,②=Paragraph 2, ③=Paragraph 3, ④=Paragraph 4,⑤=Paragraph 5）
73．From the fourth paragraph ,we can infer that .
A．a great many nuclear weapons were actually used for war
B．a large number of nuclear weapons should have been used for war
C．the author is doubtful about the ruin of human beings by nuclear weapons
D．the author is anxious about the huge number of nuclear weapons on the earth
74．The underlined word “mingled” in the last paragraph most probably means .
A．simple B．mixed C．sad D．happy

Science, as we think, was born when the Greek philosopher (哲学家) Thales ( about 640-546 B.C.) asked a difficult question: What makes up our universe?
No one had a ready answer, so Thales went on studying the earth around him, the sky and the stars. He saw so much water on earth and so much water falling from the sky as rain that he decided water must be the basic substance (物质) of the universe.
Other Greek thinkers became interested in this question. They suggested other answers. One said that because air lies around the earth, it must be air that makes up all things. Another said that fire, appearing in different forms, was the building block of the universe.
The Greek philosophers were feeling their way towards the ideas on which chemistry is based. Centuries later, scientists proved that the universe is made up of certain basic substances. But the list is much more complicated than the Greeks realized. We now know of 103 basic substances which we call “ elements (元素)”.
【小题1】Thales, the famous Greek philosopher, died when he was about_________.
| A．94 years old | B．106years old | C．40 years old | D．46 years old |
| A．not difficult | B．not simple | C．not famous | D．not different |
| A．Thales asked many questions | B．Greeks were all philosophers |
| C．science began long ago | D．water and air make up all things. |
| A．early tries to understand the universe | B．the famous Greek thinkers |
| C．water falling from the sky | D．air lying all around the earth |
| A．nothing ever changes in the universe |
| B．Thales decided that the basic substance of the universe was air |
| C．the universe is made up of four different substances |
| D．the early Greek thinkers did much valuable work for the progress of science |

Professor Reason recently persuaded 35 people to keep a diary of all their absent-minded actions for two weeks. When he came to analyze their embarrassing errors, he was surprised to find that nearly all of them fell into a few groups.
One of the women, for instance, on leaving her house for work one morning threw her pet dog her earrings and tried to fix a dog biscuit on her ear. “The explanation for this is that the brain is like a computer,” explains the professor. “People programme themselves to do certain activities regularly.” It was the woman’s custom every morning to throw her dog two biscuits and then put on her earrings. “But somehow the action got reversed（颠倒）in the programme.” About one in twenty of the incidents the volunteers reported were these “programme assembly failures.”
Twenty percent of all errors were “test failures” — mainly due to not verifying the progress of what the body was doing. A man about to get his car out of the garage passed through the back yard where his garden jacket and boots were kept, put them on — much to his surprise. A woman reported, “I got into the bath with my socks on.”
The commonest problem was information “storage failures”. People forgot the names of people whose faces they knew, went into a room and forgot why they were there, mislaid something, or smoked a cigarette without realizing it.
The research so far suggests that while the central processor of the brain is liberated from second-to-second control of a well-practiced routine, it must repeatedly switch back its attention at important decision points to check that the action goes on as intended. Otherwise the activity may be gotten by another frequently and recently used programme, resulting in embarrassing errors.
【小题1】The purpose of the professor’s research is to __________.
| A．show the difference between men and women |
| B．sort and explain some errors in human actions |
| C．find the causes which lead to computer failures |
| D．compare computer functions with brain working |
| A．A woman went to a shop and forgot what to buy. |
| B．A man returning home after work left his key in the lock. |
| C．A lady fell as she was paying attention to each step her feet were taking. |
| D．An old man, with his shoes on, was trying to put on his socks. |
| A．improving | B．changing | C．checking | D．stopping |
| A．information collecting system being destroyed |
| B．one’s total memory being removed |
| C．the loss of part of one’s memory for a time |
| D．the separation of one’s action from words |
