City planners and private inventors are finding that good buildings, no matter how old , can be remodeled for new purposes. “If you’d asked someone four or five years ago whether he’d rent an apartment in an abandoned piano factory or clothing warehouse(大商店), he’d h ave thought you were crazy,,” says a New York architect. “Today, many people are eager to do it.”Only a few decades ago, renovation was unpopular and generally far more expensive than taking down abandoned9(抛弃) buildings and starting from the beginning. A change began in the 1990s with a number of well-advertised projects. They included Chirardelli Square in San Francisco, where an oldchocolate factory was renovated and made into shops and restaurants, Trolley Square in Salt Lake City, where an abandoned car warehouse became a shopping centre.What caused the change? “ One reason is nostalgia(怀旧),”a san Francisco builder suggests. “Maybe old is better than new, many people are saying. Feelings about preserving attractive or historic buildings have changed a great deal.”A second cause is economy. The cost of tearing down an old building and constructing a new one from nothing now has risen to the point where it is often less expensive to fix a solid older structure.Even when the costs of renovation are the same as or a bit more than the costs of putting up a new building, fixing the old building may be better. Gradually, architects and builders are developing knowledge about renovation and preservation, bringing imagination and creativity to the job.46. In the United States, renovating old creativity to the job-___________.A. has a long historyB. is a new trendC. is still unpopularD. is out of date47. What’s the purpose of this passage?A. Call on people to renovate old buildingsB. Report a change—renovation in AmericaC. Encourage people to make use of old buildingD. Introduce a new method of renovating old buildings48. Why did the passage mention Ghirardelli Square and Trolley Square?A. To introduce us some successful building renovations.B. To make them known to the public.C. To discuss whether they were worth restoring.D. To tell us any old buildings can be renovated.49. Renovating old buildings in the US needs architects who ______.A. are skilled at tearing down old buildingsB. are good at designing a new buildingC. have rich imagination and creativityD. have nostalgia of the city50. From the passage we can learn that________.A. building renovation is a better choice even if it costs more than building a new oneB. renovating a building is surely cheaper than putting up a new oneC. the main reason for building renovation is for economic purposeD. there will be less new buildings in the worldBDisposing(处理) of waste has been a problem since humans started producing it. As more and more people choose to live close together in cities, the waste-disposal problem becomes increasingly difficult.During the eighteenth century, it was usual for several neighboring towns to get together to select a faraway spot as a dump site. Residents or trash haulers(垃圾托运者) would transport household rubbish, rotted wood, and old possessions to the site. Periodically(定期的) some of the trash was burned and the rest was buried. The unpleasant sights and smells caused no problem because nobody lived close by.Factories, mills, and other industrial sites also had waste to be disposed of. Those located on rivers often just dumped the unwanted remains into the water. Others built huge burners with chimneys to deal with the problem.Several facts make these choices unacceptable to modern society. The first problem is space. Dumps, which are now called landfills, are most needed in heavily populated areas.Such areas rarely have empty land suitable for this purpose.Property is either too expensive or too close to residential neighborhoods. Long-distance trash hauling(垃圾托运) has been a common practice, but once farm areas are refusing to accept rubbish from elsewhere. Cheap land within trucking distance of major city area is almost nonexistent.Awareness of pollution dangers has resulted in more strict rules of waste disposal. Pollution of rivers, ground water, land and air is a price people can no longer pay to get rid of waste. The amount of waste, however, continues to grow.Recycling efforts have become commonplace, and many towns require their people to take part. Even the most efficient recycling programs, however, can hope to deal with only about50 percent of a city’s reusable waste.51. The most suitable title for this passage would be ______.A. places for Disposing WasteB. Waste PollutionDangersC. Ways of Getting Rid of WasteD. Waste Disposal Problem52. During the 18th century, people disposed their waste in many ways EXCEPT for _____.A. burying itB. recycling itC. burning itD.throwing it into rivers53. What can be inferred from the fourth paragraph?A.Farm areas accept waste from the city in modern society.B.There is a cheap land to bury waste in modern society.C.It is difficult to find space to bury waste in modernsocietyD.Ways to deal with waste in modern society stay the same.54. The main purpose of writing this article is to _____.A. draw people’s attention to waste managementB. warn people of the pollution dangers we are facingC. call on people to take part in recycling programsD .tell people a better way to get rid of the wasteCLeadership is the art of getting someone to do something you want done because he wants to do it.People naturally want to follow a good leader. After meeting with an effective leader it is not unusual to feel uplifted(情绪高涨), inspired, and motivated to work towards a common goal.An effective leader makes others feel good about themselves,as well as the work they are doing. The leader has a vision(幻想)of what he or she wants to achieve, and can communicate that vision to others in a way that makes people want to be part of it. One thing a good leader typically does is to communicatethe big picture, so that each employee can see how the particular role he or she plays makes a contribution to the final result.Good leaders are positive and optimistic when they speak about the future. Their enthusiasm wins them plenty of supporters who help make their vision a reality.Good leaders also understand that different people are motivated by different things. For employees motivated by a need for achievement, a leader explains how the task offers an opportunity to take on a challenge with an achievable goal. And employees are motivated by hearing how they will be part of a team of people working together.Good leaders will introduce employees by name first, rather than job titles. They refer to employees as team members, companions, or colleagues, never as “servants”. Words have power, including the power to make people feel whether or not they are important to the success of an organization.Good leaders believe that every team member matters and set up environments that make everyone feel important. It is no wonder they can attract the support they need to help them achieve their goals.55. What’s the author’s purpose of writing this passage?A. To tell us how to be a good leader at work.B. To describe the proper relationship between leaders and employees.C. To inform us of how leaders and employees should communicate.D. To show the optimism of a leader.56. What is the most important to be a good leader?A. A good leader learns art very well.B. A good leader can promote employees.C. A good leader can satisfy all his or her employees.D. A good leader can make employees happy and willing in their work.57, What should a good leader do for an employee who wants to succeed at work?A. To promote the employee to a leadership role.B. To draw a beautiful picture of the employee’s future.C. To encourage the employee to meet the challenges of his work.D. To let the staff know the important role the employee plays.58. What is Paragraph 6 mainly about?A. The importance of making introductions by name.B. A way of remembering others’ names.C. The key to the success of an organization.D. How to create a harmonious relationship between leadersand employees.59. We can infer from the passage that_________.A. a good leader is always good at creating comfortableworking conditionsB. the support of employees is necessary for a leader to reachhis goalC. names are much easier to remember than job titlesD. the motivation of the employees all comes from the leaderIV. 短文改错:At the end of last month, I attended at a celebration 60.__________meeting hold in our school.

But finding the city wasn’t that easy. During the summer of 1991, he and his 40 helpers dug at 35 different spots. The only things they found were ground spiders, giant ticks, and deadly snakes.Just before Thanksgiving said Clapp,“We were within a whisker of total failure.”Then Clapp’s team looked at the high-tech maps again and saw something surprising. Many of the caravan routes（沙漠商队路线）on the high-tech maps came together on the same spot marked “Omani Marketplace” on Ptolomy’s map. Two maps, made almost 2,000 years apart, pointed the team toward the same area!In December 1991, Clapp arrived at the spot where, according to the maps, the caravans met. Clapp had a handheld instrument that could detect objects below theground. It showed ruins under the sand! He and his team started digging, trying not to get their hopes up. And then they found it! A tower buried in the sand. They slowly unearthed a giant, eight-sided fortress（堡垒）. It had nine towers and many rooms. People had lived in this fortress 2,000 years ago. Outside its walls, the crew had found buried remains of nearly 40 campsites. They seemed to be camping areas for traders.More digging found shards, or pieces of pottery from the ancient empires of Rome, Greece, China, Egypt, and Syria. Diggers and scientists agreed that people were on the site for about 5,000 years. Clapp and his team were excited as they continued to uncover more pieces of the past that seemed to prove that it was the lost city of Ubar.“We started with this hopeless myth and then found seeds of truth,” said Clapp, “then finally found the reality behind the myth.” But is this unearthed site really the once-great Ubar? Experts aren’t totally persuaded.Donald Whitcomb is an archeologist（考古学家）at the University of Chicago. He doubts that Clapp really discovered Ubar. “There’s probably a grain of truth to this myth,” he says. “But Ubar is described as a place with walls all made of gold, and the rubies and emeralds.” No gold or precious stones have been found by Clapp.“I’m not sure whether they discovered Ubar because I’m not sure if Ubar really existed,” Whitcomb says.1. Which of the following statements is true according to the reading?A. Ubar was an important ancient city which was buried under the sand.B. Ubar was described as a city with towers.C. Clapp found the spot marked “Omani Marketplace” on the high-tech maps.D. Inside the fortress they found shards, ground spiders, giant ticks and deadly snakes.2. The following statements are true according to the reading EXCEPT that __________.A. Clapp made this discovery with the help of caravan routes on the mapsB. Clapp made this discovery with the help of some high technologyC. Clapp was not sure that he had found UbarD. Donald Whitcomb was not sure if Clapp had found Ubar3. Which of the following is closest in meaning to the underlined part?A. We were ready for any failure.B. We were on the point of giving up hope.C. We would never stop digging in spite of some difficulty.D. We decided that we had failed to find Ubar.4. It can be inferred from the reading that Nicholas Clapp is __________.A. a person of courageB. a person of determination（决心）C. a very young personD. a person who is good for nothing（B）Every year thousands of tourists visit Pompeii, Italy. They see the sights that Pompeii is famous for like its stadium and theatres, its shops and restaurants. The tourists do not, however, see Pompeii’s people. They do not see them because Pompeii has no people. No one has lived in Pompeii for almost 2,000 years. Once, Pompeii was a busy city of 22,000 people. It lay at the foot of Mount Vesuvius, a grass-coveredvolcano（火山）. Mount Vesuvius had not erupted（喷发）for centuries, so the people of Pompeii felt safe.But in August of AD 79, Mount Vesuvius erupted. The entire top of the mountain exploded, and a huge black cloud rose into the air. Soon stones and hot ash began to fall on Pompeii. When the eruption ended two days later, Pompeii was buried under 20 feet of stones and ashes. Almost all of its people were dead.For centuries, Pompeii lay buried under stone and ash. Then, in the year 1861, an Italian scientist named Ginseppe began to uncover Pompeii. Slowly and carefully, Ginseppe and his men dug. The city looked almost the same as it had looked in AD 79. There were streets and fountains, houses and shops. There was a stadium with 20,000 seats. Perhaps the most important of all, there were everyday objects, which tell us a great deal about the people who lived in Pompeii. Many glasses and jars had some dark blue colour in the bottom, so we know that the people of Pompeii liked wine. They liked bread too; metal bread pans were in every bakery. In one bakery there were 81 round, flat loaves of bread—a type of bread that is still sold in Italy today. Tiny boxes filled with a dark, shiny powder tell us that women liked to wear eye-makeup.Ginseppe has died, but his work continues. One-fourth has not been uncovered yet. Scientists are still digging, still making discoveries that draw the tourists to Pompeii. 5.
