If you think about World Heritage Sites,you probably think of places connected with ancient art and

culture,historical buildings and monuments.And of course,many of these are on the World Heritage List(WHL)(世界遗产名录).But the WHL contains a lot of sites that are not so obvious.Let?s look at a few of them.

Robben Island in South Africa

This island was used through the centuries as a prison,a hospital and a military base.But it?s probably most famous as a maximum-security prison for political prisoners in the twentieth century.Nelson Mandela was one of its most famous residents.The WHL says it represents “the triumph(胜利) of democracy(民主) and freedom over oppression(压迫) and racism(种族主义)”.

Borders of France and Spain

This is an area of great natural beauty and the mountains have many interesting geological formations.But it is also an area of small farms.People there still use a type of agriculture that used to be common in mountainous areas of Europe but has almost completely disappeared in modern times.

The city of Brasilia,Brazil

Brasilia is a capital city that was created from nothing in 1956.The WHL calls it “a landmark in the hi story of town planning”.The different areas of the city and the buildings themselves were all designed at the same time carefully.Every part of the city shows the ideas of the planner and architect.

Simien National Park,Ethiopia

Simien National Park was one of the first sites to be listed in 1978.It is one of the highest mountain areas in Africa,and the WHL calls it “one of the most spectacular(壮观的) landscapes in the world”.It is also important for its wildlife.The population of some rare animals is getting smaller and smaller.

Paris has the Eiffel Tower(埃菲尔铁塔),Rome the Colosseum(圆形大剧场),New York the Statue of

Liberty.These symbolic landmarks are recognizable worldwide.Brussels(布鲁塞尔) meanwhile has the Manneken

Pis(撒尿小童).Think of the Belgian(比利时的) capital and if anything,you think of the small peeing(撒尿) boy—a

60-centimeter-high bronze figure standing on a block,supplying a constant stream of water to the basin under him.

Some might laugh.But for Jacques Stroobants,the statue is up there with the best of them.“I am proud of

him.People come from all around the world to see him,” says 60-year-old Stroobants with a fatherly glance at the little boy.

As the most famous landmark of Brussels,Manneken Pis has a very special place in the heart of Belgians.

The original Manneken Pis dates back to 1388,but the statue tourists see today dates from 1619 when the city built a second one,after the original was destroyed.

There are many stories surrounding the legend of Manneken Pis.Nobody knows why he was created.One story is that he saved Brussels by putting out the flames of a deadly fire with his well-aimed wee-wee(小便).But the most believable story is that the boy—the son of a wealthy nobleman(贵族)—was missing and kidnapped(绑架).The father had a statue built in honour of the way his son was found—peeing against a tree.

25.The Manneken Pis is the symbol of ,which stands on a block of the capital.

A.England

B.Italy

C.Belgium

解析:细节理解题。由第一段最后一句可知,撒尿小童是比利时的标志。

26.Why does the Manneken Pis have a very special place in the heart of Belgians?

A.Because it provides a good resting place for the Belgians.

B.Because it is a special statue with many legends.

C.Bec ause it?s good-looking with water running continuously.

答案:B

解析:推理判断题。由短文对于撒尿小童来历的介绍可知这个雕塑有着许多传奇。答案为B项。

27.If Belgians regard the Manneken Pis as a hero,they may be more willing to believe the statue was made .

A.for a country boy who was peeing against a big tree

B.in honour of the boy who saved Brussels

C.in honour of a little Belgian soldier who gave his life to his country

D.for the son of a rich man who was lost

From the earliest times,man has been interested in art.People have often worked together to collect and save the world?s art treasures.

Fine art treasures from many countries are kept in an art museum called the Louvre(卢浮宫)in Paris,France.The works of art have been collected by the people of France over many centuries.It is the biggest art museum in the world.

The Louvre has not always been a museum.The first building was a fort (堡垒).In 1190,it was the king?s castle with high walls and a round tower.It had a moat(护城河) to keep out the enemies.

Over the years,the number of buildings around the castle grew.By 1350,the castle was no longer needed as a fort.The Louvre became a palace home for French kings and queens.

During times of peace,new treasures were brought in.During days of war,many treasures were stolen,and the buildings were damaged.

When Francis Ⅰ became king of France in 1515,he brought in many artists from other countries.One of the artists was Leonardo da Vinci from Italy.Da Vinci?s Mona Lisa is the best known painting in the museum today.

In 1793,the Louvre became a public museum,just as it is now.It is a place where art treasures are kept for everyone to enjoy.Every year millions of people from all over the world come to the Louvre to see the masterpieces.

29.How long has the Louvre been a public museum?

B.Since 1350.

C.Since 1515.

D

Betty and Harold have been married for years.But one thing still puzzles old Harold.How is it that he can leave Betty and her friend Joan sitting on the sofa,talking,go out to a ballgame,come back three and a half hours later,and they?re still sitting on the sofa,talking?

What in the world,Harold wonders,do they have to talk about?Betty shrugs(耸肩).Talk?We?re friends.

Researching this matter called friendship,psychologist(心理学家) Lillian Rubin spent two years interviewing more than two hundred women and men.No matter what their age,their job,their sex,the results were completely clear:women have more friendships than men,and the difference in the content and the quality of those friendships is “marked and unmistakable”.

More than two-thirds of the single men Rubin interviewed would not name a best friend.Those who could were likely to name a woman.Yet three-quarters of the single women had no problem naming a best friend,and almost always it was a woman.More married men than women named their wife/husband as a best friend,most trusted person,or the one they would turn to in time of emotional distress(感情危机).“Most women,” says Rubin,“named at least one,usually more,trusted friends to whom they could turn in a trouble moment,and they spoke openly about the importance of these relationships in their lives.”

“In general,” writes Rubin in her new book,“women?s friendships with each other rest on shared emotions and support,but men?s relationships are marked by shared activities.” For the most part,Rubin says,interactions(交

往)between men are emotionally controlled—a good fit with the social requirements of “manly behavior”.

“Even when a man is said to be a best friend,” Rubin writes,“the two share little about their innermost feelings.However,a woman?s closest female friend might be the first to tell her to leave a failing marriage;it wasn?t unusual to hear a man say he didn?t know his friend?s marriage was in serious trouble until he appeared one night asking if he could sleep on a sofa.”

33.What old Harold cannot understand or explain is the fact that .

A.he is treated as an outsider rather than a husband

B.women have so much to share

C.women show little interest in ballgames

D.he finds his wife difficult to talk to

答案:B

解析:推理判断题。由第一段的内容可知,让old Harold不解的是,他的妻子和妻子的朋友竟然能够一起聊如此长的时间。故选B项。

34.Rubin?s stu dy shows that for emotional support a married woman is more likely to turn to .

A.a male friend

B.a female friend

C.her parents

D.her husband

答案:B

解析:细节理解题。由第四段第三句“Yet three-quarters of the single women had no problem naming a best friend,and alm ost always it was a woman.”可推知,Rubin的研究表明,一个结婚的女士更有可能向女性朋友寻求情感方面的支持。

35.According to the text,which type of behavior is NOT expected of a man by society?

A.Ending his marriage without good reason.

B.Spending too much time with his friends.

http://www.77cn.com.cnplaining about his marriage trouble.

D.Going out to ballgames too often.

答案:C

解析:细节理解题。由最后一段最后一句“...it wasn?t unusual to hear a man say he didn?t know his friend?s marriage was in serious trouble until he appeared one night asking if he could sleep on a sofa.”可知,男人之间很少谈论婚姻方面的问题。故选C项。

Shelly smiled to herself.She knew 59how much a miracle cost—one dollar and eleven cents.What?s more,plus the60of a little child.

41.A.sick B.well C.glad D.sad

解析:从后面的“尽全力来救他”以及“需要动手术”等信息中可看出此处应为sick。

http://www.77cn.com.cnmon B.cheap C.expensive D.easy

答案:C

解析:从下文中的they didn?t have enough money得知,应是昂贵的外科手术。

43.A.pay off B.pay for C.pay back D.pay away

答案:B

44.A.gladly B.surprisingly

C.proudly

D.sadly

答案:D

解析:孩子生病,没有钱治疗,因此爸爸说“Only a miracle can save him now.”心情应该是难过的。故正确答案为sadly。

答案:A

解析:这里应为“她从所藏的地方取出存钱罐”。

46.A.took B.shook C.handed D.gave

答案:B

解析:首先排除C、D两项,hand out,give out都是“分发”的意思,在此不合题意。take out 虽然有“拿出,取出”之意,但由上文可以看出零钱在存钱罐里面,需要把里面的零钱摇晃出来。故正确答案为B项。

47.A.hurried B.ran C.slipped D.rushed

答案:C

解析:hurry,run和rush都可表示“快速”离开房子,但根据上文所讲述的内容,此处应为她个人的行为,不想让爸妈知道,所以应为“溜出房子”。

50.A.sat B.went C.leaned D.got

答案:C

解析:根据文中所提供的情景,药店里的那个人是一个成年人,而小女孩只有八岁,因此他在问她时,应该弯下腰来,即身体倾斜下来问。故正确答案为leaned。

51.A.little B.upset C.clever D.sick

答案:D

解析:根据上下文,此处应为sick,因为此时都是谈论她弟弟生病的事情。

52.A.But B.Otherwise

C.Therefore

D.Then

答案:A

解析:根据前后语境可知此处应为转折关系,即虽然需要做手术,但家里承担不起手术费用。

53.A.smiles B.tears C.fears D.sorrows

C

Children have their own rules in playing games.They seldom need a referee and rarely trouble to keep scores.They don?t care much about who wins or loses,and it doesn?t seem to worry them if the game is not finished.Yet,they like games that depend a lot on luck,so that their personal abilities cannot be directly compared.They also enjoy games that move in stages,in which each stage,the choosing of leaders,the picking-up of sides,or the determining of which side shall start,is almost a game in itself.

Grown-ups can hardly find children?s games exciting,and they often feel puzzled at why their kids play such simple games again and again.However,it is found that a child plays games for very important reasons.He can be a good player without having to think whether he is a popular person,and he can find himself being a useful partner to someone of whom he is ordinarily afraid.He becomes a leader when it comes to his turn.He can be confident,too,in particular games,that it is his place to give orders,to pretend to be dead,to throw a ball actually at someone,or to kiss someone he has caught.

It appears to us that when children play a game they imagine a situation under their control.Everyone knows the rules,and more importantly,everyone plays according to the rules.Those rules may be childish,but they make sure that every child has a chance to win.

29.What is true about children when they play games?

A.They can stop playing any time they like.

B.They can test their personal abilities.

C.They want to pick a better team.

D.They don?t need rules.

答案:A

解析:细节理解题。由第一段中的“They don?t care much about who wins or loses,and it doesn?t seem to worry them if the game is not finished.”可知孩子们对游戏是否还没有结束并不在意,说明孩子们玩的游戏随时都可中止。

Seven ways to find out what you really want in life

Be good to yourself

You can?t pinpoint(准确指出) exactl y what you want in life.You?re constantly sacrificing(牺牲) your time and dreams for other people.36Ask yourself:if you weren?t tied down by your job,family,or anything else,then what would you be doing right now?

Regret nothing

To be good to yourself is not selfish.It?s your life.It?s time for you to live it exactly the way you want to.If you constantly regret things you did or didn?t do in the past,then you won?t be able to move forward.37 Figure out what you need

Sometimes it?s hard to figure out what you need.Sit down and think about what you need most.The freedom to express yourself?Love?Financial security?Something else?If it helps,you can make a list.Also think about the kind of legacy(遗产) you want to leave behind.

38

You can fly only by pushin g back against something you don?t want.Figure out what upsets you,and be specific about it.Don?t just say that you hate your office job.Pinpoint exactly why you hate it.Could it be your strict boss?Your workload?Your meaningless job title?Or all of the above?

Determine what makes you truly happy

There?s no life to waste if you?re happy with living it.39Being around children?Is it traveling?Owning a successful business?Financial freedom?Once you pinpoint the one thing that makes you happy the most,you?ll have a pretty clear idea of what you should struggle hard to get in your life.Let people around yo u know what you?re trying to achieve.Don?t keep your goals and desires to yourself.Voice it all out!If you tell people what you?re trying to accomplish,they will most likely support you and give you new ideas.

Stay positive

Life doesn?t always go how you want it.Don?t feel discouraged as your plans stray(偏离).Take control.Instead of being anxious,try your best to advance with the changes.You will get there someday.40You?re just taking a little detour(绕道).

A.Determine what really bothers you.

B.Think about what makes you happy.

C.You should think of things carefully.

D.Determine what you are going to do next.

E.Don?t live in the past but live in the present!

F.Sometimes a positive attitude is all you need to keep going.

G.You have to put yourself first,because if you don?t,then no one else will.
