My mother is a geneticist, and from her I learned that despite our differences in size, shape and color, we humans are 99.9 percent the same. It is in our 71 to see differences: skin, hair and eye

color, height, language. But also in our nature, way down in the DNA that 72 us human, we are almost the 73 .

I believe there is more that unites us than 74 us.

My mother came to the US from India. She is 75 enough that she got her service 76 in a diner in 1960s Dallas. My father is a white boy from Indiana whose 77 came from Germany in the mid-1800s.

It seems 78 to admit now, but I never 79 that my parents were different colors. One day, I watched my parents walk 80 the street of our church together. They were 81 in the service that day, and as they walked, I saw their hands 82 together in unison(一致地). I noticed for the first time how dark my mother was, and how white my father was. I knew them as my parents 83 I realized their skin color. I'm sorry to say that now when I see a mixed-race 84 walking down the street, I see the "mixed race" first and the "couple" second.

When my parents married in 1966, there were 85 places in this country that had laws 86 mixed marriage. 87 , my white grandfather, 88 father had been a typical racist, was not against their marriage.

Some of us are men, some are women. Some are young, some old. Some of us are short and others 89 . Some right-handed, some left-handed. We have lots of differences; we are all 90 . But deep down inside us, down in our DNA, we are 99.9 percent the same. And I believe we need to remember that.

LONDON (Reuters)—Quiet please—Britain's Queen Elizabeth is preparing to have her swans counted.

Buckingham Palace has announced that the annual Swan Upping, a tradition dating back to the 12th century which involves a census(统计调查) of the swan population on the River Thames, will be conducted by the Queen's official Swan Marker from July 20-24.

"With the assistance of the Queen's Swan Warden, Professor Christopher Perrins of the University of Oxford, the swans and young cygnets (小天鹅) are also assessed for any signs of injury or disease," Buckingham Palace said in announcing the count.

The process involves the Swan Marker, David Barber, rowing up the Thames for five days with the Swan Warden in traditional skiffs while wearing special scarlet uniforms and counting, weighing and measuring swans and cygnets.

It may seem strange, but it is very important to the Queen. According to custom, Britain's queen owns all unmarked, mute swans in open water, but the Queen now exercises the right only on stretches of the Thames and its nearby tributaries.

In medieval times, the Swan Marker would not only travel up the river counting the swans, but would catch as many as possible as they were sought after for banquets and feasts.

This year, the Swan Marker and the Swan Warden are particularly keen to discover how much damage is being caused to swans and cygnets by attacks from dogs and from discarded fishing tackle. It is also an important year because Queen Elizabeth has decided to join her team of Swan Uppers for part of the census. She will follow them up the river and visit a local school project on the whole subject of swans, cygnets and Thames.

"Education and conservation are essential to the role of Swan Upping and the involvement of school children is always a rewarding experience," Buckingham Palace said.

91. In medieval times, .

A. swans were better protected than now

B. a lot of swans were killed by dogs

C. swans were a delicious dish on royal banquets

D. common people could catch the swans

92. We can infer from the passage that the process of counting the swans .

A. remains almost unchanged in the past years

B. involves a lot of royal members

C. sometimes lasts longer than before

D. is always guarded by special soldiers

93. The underlined word "tributaries" can be best replaced by " ".

A. districts

B. banks

C. trees

D. branches

94. Which of the following is the main idea of the passage?

A. Britain's Queen is concerned about swans.

B. Britain's Queen orders a count of swans.

C. An old tradition in Buckingham Palace.

D. Queen Elizabeth will count swans herself.

B

About 12 000 years ago-long before the famous UFO crash make headlines in America—an alien spaceship crashed in China. And their descendants are still living in a faraway Chinese village today! That is the mind-bending claim made in the new book Out of Time and Place, a collection of reports from the files of Fate, a magazine edited by Terry O'Neil.

The story first came to light in 1937 when an expedition led by Chi PuTei came across a group of caves deep in the BayanKaraUla Mountains. In the caves were found strange-looking skeletons with big heads and small, slender bodies-closely matching typical descriptions of space aliens. The explorers also uncovered 716 mysterious stone discs with strange hieroglyphics(象形文字) on them. In Qinghai Province, where the mountains lie, ancient stories tell of small, skinny beings with oversize heads who came from the sky long long ago. And to this day, locals live in fear of attack from strange-looking creatures from above.

And there is more. In 1947, British scientist Karyl RobinEvans led an expedition into the mountains and discovered a group of dwarfs(侏儒) who called themselves the Droza. "They told him that their ancestors came from a planet in the Sirius(天狼星) system and crashed in this mountain area a long time ago," writes Hausdorf, "Many of them were killed, but survivors adapted to living on this rough planet far from home."

For decades, RobinEvans' claims were dismissed as nonsense. But in 1995, the Associated Press reported that in the region a village named Huilong had been discovered-populated by 120 dwarfs ranging from 3foot10 to 2foot1 tall.Hausdorf asks, "Could these people be the last living descendants of the survivors of the legendary UFO crash-the Chinese Roswell?"

95. Which of the following are the findings of Chi PuTei?

a. strange-looking skeletons

b. UFO crash

c. stone discs

d. dwarfs

e. strange hieroglyphics

f. skinny beings

A. a, c, d

B. c, e, f

C. a, c, e

D. a, b, e

96. Paragraph 3 and 4 mainly .

A. introduce ancient stories in Qinghai Province

B. show evidence of the existence of aliens in Qinghai Province

C. express fears of attack from aliens

D. describe the spaceship crash in China

97. What can be safely concluded from the passage?

A. This passage is a piece of science news recently issued.

B. Chinese are descendants to the survivors of the alien spaceship crash.

C. The UFO crash in the ByanKaraUla Mountains has recently been seen.

D. Many people are curious about aliens from outer space.

98. What is most likely to be discussed in the paragraph that follows?

A. Recent research about the Chinese Roswell.

B. News stories about Roswell UFO Crash.

C. Chi PuTei's discovery in China.

D. RobinEvans' claims.

C

Tutankhamun(图腾卡蒙) was a king who governed Egypt around 1361 BC. He was very young when he died and governed Egypt for only nine years. Although he was unimportant compared to many of the great governors of Egypt, Tutankhamun is now one of the most famous names in ancient Egyptian history.

More than 100 years ago, archaeologists(考古学家) were uncovering surprising finds in a dusty valley near the River Nile called The Valley of the Kings. By the 1900s, many people felt that all the hidden treasure in the valley had been found. However, one British archaeologist, Howard Carter, was sure that the tomb of Tutankhamun was still lying undiscovered in the valley. With the support of his rich patron(资助人), Lord Carnarvon, he searched for eight long years.

Finally, in November 1922, one of Carter's workmen discovered some stone steps leading down under the ground. Could this be the tomb they had been looking for?

Carter and his workers dug down, uncovering more and more steps. Finally they came to a door. On the door was the name they had been hoping to find---Tutankhamun. Carter and Carnarvon were excited, but they knew that they could still be disappointed. Almost all of the tombs discovered in the valley so far had been broken into by thieves, and much of the priceless treasure stolen. The archaeologists broke through the door and continued down a long corridor to another door. Carter carefully made a small hole and pushed a candle through. As the light shone into the room inside, he could hardly believe his eyes. He saw a gold throne covered in jewels, gold chariots, and many beautiful vases and statues.

During more searching over the next few months they discovered another three rooms, all-full of treasure. One held the most incredible find of all: the golden coffin containing the mummy(木乃伊), or preserved body, of the young king. Carter had discovered the most complete and valuable collection of ancient Egyptian treasure ever found. His long search was over.

99. Tutankhamun is regarded as one of the most famous names in ancient Egyptian history because .

A. he died young

B. he was very rich

C. he was very powerful

D. his tomb was well kept

100. We can infer from the passage that .

A. archaeology costs time and money

B. Tutankhamn lived one thousand and sixty-one years ago

C. all the tombs of the Kings had been stolen by the 1900s

D. it was easy for an archaeologist to discover a tomb

101. Which of the following statements is TRUE?

A. Tutankhamn collected all the treasure in Egypt.

B. Carter began to search for Tutanhamn's tomb in 1914.

C. Carter and his workers spent eight years on another three rooms

D. Carter and Carnarvon were sure that Tutankhamn's tomb was not stolen.

The ancient city of Chichen Itza in southern Mexico was one of the most powerful cities and one of the most powerful ancient cultures—the Maya. But today, no one lives there. It is only a group of old buildings. However, people from around the world still come to see it. People come to learn about its ancient culture, the culture of the Mayan people.

The Mayan culture began almost 3,000 years ago and grew in parts of Central America. But about 1,000 years ago a group called the Itza invaded the city and built new parts of the city. based on natural wells. They named the city Chichen Itza, which means "mouth of the well of the Itza".

The most interesting structure in Chichen Itza is the Pyramid of Kukulcan (库库尔坎金字塔), whose four sides all come together at one point at the top. Each side on the Pyramid of Kukulcan has 91 steps. And there is one more step at the top of the pyramid. The steps are as many as the days of a year. Some experts believe the Maya could have used this building to help them know when to plant crops. Each day the sun falls on a different step of the pyramid, which could be a way to follow the year.

The people of Chichen Itza especially designed one building to observe and study the movement of the stars and planets. Experts say that the observatory(天文台) is one of the most complex structures the Maya built. A set of steps went up and around the observatory tower. And there were windows in the tower. Each window had a purpose. Experts believe that a person looking through one of these windows could see particular stars on particular dates. The Maya might have believed that studying the stars could tell them the future.

Chichen Itza is now a UNESCO World Heritage Site and an important part of the world's history. 102. Visitors came to the city of Chichen Itza to .

A. view its beautiful scenery

B. experience and explore the Mayan culture

D. learn something about when to plant crops

A. Because wells can be seen in or around the city.

B. Because it is large in size.

C. Because the city is newly-built.

D. Because its location is vital.

104. Which of the following is true?

A. Chichen Itza is one of the World Heritages.

B. The Pyramid of Kukulcan has 364 steps.

C. Windows in the tower predict the weather in the future.

D. The city of Chichen Itza has a long history of 3000 years.

W: I'm still teaching at the university, but I moved from the German Department to the Spanish Department. Well, how is your family? Are the children all in school now?

M: No, Billy is still at home. Tom is in the third grade and Jane's in the second.

W: Our two children haven't started school yet, either. But they will go in the fall.

M: What shall we do this weekend?

W: Did you have something special in mind?

M: No, not really. I just thought it might be fun to do something new.

W: Doing something for a change, you mean?

M: Yes, something different. I need a change.

W: I usually go shopping and have my hair done during the weekend and you usually watch the football games on TV.

M: Yes, you often have tea with your friends. And I sometimes play cards with my friends. We seldom do anything together. It's quite unlike when we were first married.

W: Now I've got an idea. Autumn is the best season in Beijing. Why don't we go for a picnic this weekend? You'll invite your friends and I'll invite mine. We'll go together.

M: Good idea! I'd see about the car and you'll prepare the food. But are you sure you really want all our friends to come along?

M: Doctor, is it easy to see death?

W: Well, it seems it's not so easy for me to tell you about death.

M: Tell me the fact, please. I'm not afraid.

W: OK. I guess you're on the way to see death.

M: I believe you're right. But I want to have a long life. Help me, please.

W: OK. Listen. It looks as if you have too much money.

M: Oh?

W: It seems that the more money you have, the worse your health is. You must have worried too much about the safety of your money.

M: Yes, that's quite true.

W: Why not give some money to poor people?

M: No way! Money is my life.

(Text 9)

W: How are you doing, Andrew?

M: Not well. I've been feeling pretty lonely lately.

W: But you have so many friends! How could you be lonely?

M: You know what they say: a friend to all is a friend to none. I don't feel like I really know any of my friends. In fact, I should probably call them acquaintances, not friends.

W: What about me? I'm your friend.

M: I know you are, but you're my girlfriend. I wish I had a guy friend to hang out with sometimes. W: I know what you mean. I find it difficult to make new friends, too. It's not as easy as it was when we were young, is it?

M: Not at all.

W: I've made a lot of new friends since I started learning English. Maybe you could join a club or take a class to make some new friends.

M: That's a good idea.

W: What kind of qualities do you look for in a friend?

M: I'm not sure. I guess I'd like to meet some people who have a positive attitude and want to have a good time.

W: People who play ultimate Frisbee have a positive attitude; maybe you should join the ultimate Frisbee club.

M: That's a possibility. Thanks!

A large National Park has been built to protect the culture of ancient Native Americans. It is called Mesa Verde. It was cold that day in 1988 in southwestern Colorado. Richard Wetherill and his brother in law were trying to find some missing cattle. They were up on Mesa Verde. Spanish explorers had named the area. The high, flat mountaintop is covered with bushes and pine trees. It looks like a huge green table, which is"mesa verde"in Spanish. The two men came to the edge of a deep canyon. Through the falling snow, they saw what looked like a small city across the canyon. It was hanging in the middle of the rock wall. There were many connected rooms built into a natural opening in the rock. They named the ruins Cliff Palace. In the next few days, they found two more large ruins. They named one Spruce Tree House and the other Square Tower House.

The Wetherill family were the first people to study them. Soon after this discovery, Richard Wetherill returned to Mesa Verde, to the ruins that had remained silent and untouched for centuries.
