An ancient Egyptian mummy thought to be that of Pharaoh Ramses I(法老一世)has returned home after more than 140 years in North American museums. The body was carried off the plane in Cairo in a box covered in Egypt’s flag.

       The Michael Carlos Museum gave it back after tests showed it was probably that of the man who ruled 3,000 years ago. The US museum acquired it three years ago from a Canadian museum, which in turn is thought to have bought it from Egyptian garve robbers in 1860. The mummy was welcomed back home with songs and military band music during a ceremony at the national museum in Cairo.

       Zahi Hawass, head of Egypt’s Supreme Council of Antiquities(文物最高委员会), traveled from the US with the body and said it would be moved next year to the Luxor Museum in southern Egypt. “We are not 100% sure that mummy is that of Ramses I,” said Mr. Hawass. “But we are 100% sure that it is of a king.”

       Atlanta’s Michael Carlos Museum acquired the mummy in 1999, but offered to return it after hi-tech scanning equipment indicated it was likely to be that of Ramses I. The museum website said it had been acquired from the Niagara Falls Museum. It is thought a Canadian collector bought the mummy for the Niagara Falls Museum around 1860 from an Egyptian family which had came across a tomb filled with royal mummies at a site near Luxor.

       Mr. Hawass praised the handover as “a great, civilized gesture”. And he appealed to other world museums to return Egypt’s antiquities, particularly the Rosetta Stone in the Britain Museum and the Bust of Nefertiti in the Berlin Museum.

Where was Ramses mummy kept in just before the handover?

       A. the Luxor Museum                        

B. the Michael Carlos Museum

       C. the Niagara Falls Museum              

D. a Canadian Museum

Which is the correct order of the following events according to the passage?

       a. The mummy returned home.

       b. The mummy was kept in the Niagara Falls Museum.

       c. Egyptian grave robber sold he mummy.

       d. A Canadian collector bought the mummy.

       e. The mummy was kept in the Michael Carlos Museum.

A. c-d-e-b-a          

B. c-b-e-d-a          

C. a-d-c-b-e          

D. c-d-b-e-a

Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?

       A. All the Egypt’s antiquities have returned home after the handover.

       B. Niagara Falls Museum is an American museum.

       C. Buying the mummy from the Egyptian family was a civilized gesture.

       D. Ramses Mummy had been kept in Canada for more than a century.

What would be the best title for the passage?

       A. The history of Ramses mummy.

       B. The handover ceremony of Ramses mummy from Canada.

       C. The returning of Ramses mummy to its homeland Egypt.

       D. The history of the royal family of Ramses.

From:  Jakie Mok , Secretary; Sports Development Committee

Date:   May 20, 2010

     A week ago , “Sports for Life” programme was sent to the parents, requiring them to select a sport they wanted their child to play. Since then, our staff have received lots of calls from parents asking for more information about it. Here is a memo (备忘录) for your reference when you answer the phones.

Sports 1: Basketball.

     We expect that this will be the most popular of the four sports. Therefore, students should be advised to sign up as soon as possible. Students will take a private bus to and from Kwun Tong Sports Park .To cover the cost of hiring a bus ,each student will have to pay ＄10 each time. There will be four basketball courts available for our use with one teacher watching over each game.

Sports 2: Gym

     We will be using St.Peter’s Memorial Park. There are two reasons for choosing their park. First, it is not very busy and crowded before 6:00 pm. Second, it has lot of trees with plenty of shade. Students must bring along two bottles of water to prevent thirst. Three activities, skipping , jogging , outdoor aerobics (有氧运动),all of which are free of charge, will be arranged. And there will be a teacher on duty for each of the activities.

Sports 3: Hiking

     Hiking(远足)will take place at Kowloon Peak. The activity will start at 2:30 pm and finish 90 minutes later. Three teachers will accompany the students, and a hiking instructor will accompany each group of 15 hikers. Each instructor will cost ＄75/hr.

Sports 4: Swimming

     The Kowloon City Aqueatic Centre is a 10-minute walk from our school. Four teachers will go to the pool and conduct the goings-on from the poolside. We will only be able to reserve the pool for one hour (i.e. 2:45pm to 3:45pm).Only students skilful at swimming can take up this activity. The pool will have two lifeguards present. Girls must wear a swimming suit. The cost is ＄10 per visit.

Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?

   A. Students selecting basketball had better register(注册) early.

   B. Students participating in gym should arrive at 6:00 pm.

   C. Hiking usually begins at 2:30 pm and lasts 2 hours.

   B. every student can gain admission to one of the four sports

   D. students taking up the four sports should bring bottles of water
