Since making my first attempt,I had considered the correct answer carefully.So several____later,I told her,“Mommy,____is very important to everybody,so it must be our___.”She looked at me and told me,“You are learning fast,but the answer is not correct because there are many people who are blind.”
Over the years,Mother asked me a couple more times and always her answer was____.Then last year,my grandpa died.Everybody was____.When it was our turn to say our final____to Grandpa,my Mom asked me,“Have you found the answer to my usual question—what is the most important body part____,my son?”
I was____when she asked me this now.I always thought this was a game between her and me.She saw the____on my face and told me,“This question is very important.It shows that you have really lived your life.For every part you gave me____,I have told you were wrong and I have given you an example____.But today is the day you need to learn this important lesson.” She looked down at me as only a mother can.I saw her eyes well up with tears.She said,“Son,the most important body part is your____.” I asked,“Is it because it holds up my head?”
She replied,“No,it is because it can hold the head of a friend or a loved one when they cry.Everybody needs a shoulder to____on sometime in life,my son.I only hope that you have enough love and friends that you will always have a shoulder to cry on when you ____ it.”

C
No one can believe that the over 6,300-kilometer Great Wall might disappear some day. Believe it or not, the Great Wall is being destroyed by people. Less than 20 percent of the Great Wall built in the Ming Dynasty, is still perfect, but about 80 percent is in danger. The Great Wall can be called "great" mostly because of its amazing length. But we should realize that the length was made up of one brick at a time. If we do nothing to save the Great Wall, it will become a series of separate wasteland rather than a historic site.
The Great Wall is actually a series of walls built and rebuilt by different dynasties over the past 2,000 years. It began in the rule of China's first emperor, Qin Shihuang of the Qin Dynasty(221 BC-206 BC), and lasted into the Ming Dynasty. The parts built before the Ming Dynasty have nearly disappeared. People are familiar with sections such as Badaling in Beijing and Jiayuguan Pass in Gansu, because they have been open to tourists for many years. But those sections far away from the public eyes have been almost forgotten.
Few local people knew the 3-metre-high walls made of earth and stones beside them are part of the Great Wall. The lack of knowledge is considered as one of the main reasons behind human.
The bricks on the Great Wall are carried off by countryside people to build their houses, sheep corrals and pigsties. Some were taken away to build roads. Bricks carved with people's names are put away as remembrances. Rubbish is spread over the battlements. The bricks can be sold for 15 yuan per tractor load. Those who destroyed and are destroying the Wall know its name, but are not clear about its cultural meaning. It will take a long time to let them know this. The local farmers not only carried off the body of the Wall but also dug out the entire base.
It is necessary to protect the Great Wall. First of all, the officials should be aware of the importance of the Great Wall. Young Chinese should know more about the nation's great civilization and learn to love it.
64. Why does the writer say the Great Wall might disappear?
A. It is useless from now on.
B. It will be replaced by a new one.
C. Some parts of it are being destroyed.
D. It is too old to be used again.
65. According to the passage, which of the following is TRUE?
A. The Great Wall was completed in the Ming Dynasty.
B. Not all the foreign tourists like the Great Wall.
C. The first part of the Great Wall was built in 221 BC.
D. The Qin Great Wall was protected well.
66. The underlined part "those sections far away from the public eyes" (in Paragraph 2) refers to the parts of the Great Wall _____.
A. that are too difficult to find
B. nobody can watch
C. that are too far to be seen
D. that are not well-known to the public
67. What's the main reason of the Great Wall's being destroyed?
A. The local people are short of culture knowledge.
B. The local people need bricks and stones to build houses.
C. The local people think that the Great Wall is not important.
D. The local people sell the bricks for a living.

Art robbery and art forgery (仿造) are both major themes in crime movies and literature.In the 2012 comedy movie Gambit, British actor Colin Firth plays an art curator who cheats his abusive boss into buying a fake Monet. In reality, art crimes are no less interesting and exciting.
According to The New York Times, over the past 15 years, Glafira Rosales fooled two local commercial art galleries into buying 63 false works of art for more than $30 million.She passed off fake paintings as works by 20th century modernist masters such as American artists Mark Rothko and Jackson Pollock.But in fact, these so called “newly discovered works” were all produced by a single man, a Chinese immigrant named Qian Peishen.
The art world was shocked by Rosales' deception.But to the public, it was amusing and most satisfying to see wealthy people get tricked.
So what decides the value of a piece of art? Is it beauty? Is it the artist's talent and craftsmanship? Or is it just because the artist is famous?
We should take beauty out. If the buyers were buying paintings only for their beauty, they'll be content displaying good fakes on their walls. They wouldn't be so upset when a forgery is exposed.
The art market claims that great artists are inimitable, and that this inimitability justifies the absurd price of their works. We can't deny that most famous artists are good at what they do, but forgers like Qian show that their works are imitable.Otherwise, the difference between the original and the copycats would be obvious and Rosales would not be able to fool anyone.
According to an article in the Economist, expensive paintings are what economists call positional goods. They are valuable because other people can't have them. With other goods, a higher price reduces demand.But art turns down the laws of economics. “When the goods that is really being purchased is evidence that the buyer has paid a lot, price increases cause demand to boom,” explained the article.
That's why scarcity and authenticity are so important in the art market. Artists sometimes forget this.Demien Hirst, the British pop artist, is famous for his spot paintings. But they dropped in value when it became clear that they had been produced in quantities so vast that nobody knew how many were out there.The art market lost faith in these paintings because no one could be sure which of them were authentic and which were fake.
小题1:The first paragraph is meant to tell the readers that ________.
A.movies and literature will be popular with art involved in them
B.art crimes are as interesting and exciting in reality as in movies
C.Gambit is a good movie with art forgery as the major theme
D.real art crime in reality can be adapted into popular films
小题2:Who is amused and satisfied to see the rich buy forged works of art?
A.The public.
B.Glafira Rosales.
C.Qian Peishen.
D.Mark Rothlo and Jackson Pollock.
小题3:What kind of art buyers should not be unhappy with its high prices when a forgery is exposed according to the author?
A.Those who buy only for its beauty.
B.Those who buy for its inimitability.
C.Those who 'buy for its authenticity.
D.Those who buy for its scarcity.
小题4:What is the law of economics theory behind art goods according to the economists?
A.They are valuable goods.
B.High prices reduce the demand of art goods.
C.High prices increase the demand of art goods.
D.They are produced in quantities to satisfy people.

We are just getting older and older with each New Year. Vigor and wisdom are draining, and bit by bit we are moving away from the amazement of youth.
Yet neither fear nor anxiety helps retain youth. Instead, a few living habits help maintain.
●Laugh to your heart's content as much as you can. Laughter helps reduce pressure and improve your immune system, which makes people look 8 years younger.
●Keep an eye on your blood pressure. Those with a blood pressure of 115/75mmHg look 2.5years younger than those above 160/90mmHg.
●Quit smoking and avoid passive smoking. This can take 8 years off your appearance.
●Spare some time for exercises each day. Exercises need not be tiring. A 20 minute walk every day makes people look 5 years younger.
●Keep learning and absorb something new each day. Speak the same language as the young people. Learning something every day makes people look 2.5 years younger.
●Keep other pressures under control. Too much pressure makes people look 30 years older. If they are good at networking and manage to keep pressure under control, they will look 30 years younger.
●Secure high quality medical care insurance and do whole body check regularly. For those contracted with chronicle diseases, proper treatment and qualification of the diseases makes people look 12 years younger than what they would without proper treatment.
