AFrom early times, man has been interested in art. People have often worked together tocollect and save the world’s art treasures. Fine art treasures from many countries are kept in an art museum called the Louvre in Paris, France. The works of art have been collected by the people ofFrance over many centuries. It is one of the biggest art museums in the world.The Louvre has not always been a museum. The first building was a fort(堡垒). In 1190, it(护城河)to keep out thewas the king’s castle with high walls and a round tower. It had a moatenemies. Over the years, the number of buildings around the castle grew. By 1350, the castle nolonger needed a fort. The Louvre became a palace home for French kings and queens.During the time of peace, new treasures were brought in. During the days of war, many treasures were stolen, and the buildings were damaged.When Francis I became the King of France in 1515, he brought in many artists from otherMona Lisa is the best countries. One of the artists was Leonardo da Vinci from Italy. Da Vinci’s known painting in the museum today.In 1793, the Louvre became a public museum. It is a place where art treasures are kept foreveryone to enjoy. Every year millions of people from all over the world come to the Louvre tosee the masterpieces.1. Most of works of art in the Louvre have been collected probably by ________.A. the French peopleB. Francis IC. Leonardo da VinciD.people of the world2. Why is it good for the works of art to be kept in public museums?A. The works of art will not be stolen.B. The works of art will not be damaged.C. Artists can study the works of art.D. Everyone has a chance to enjoy theworks of art.3. According to the passage, which of the following statements is TRUE?A. The Louvre is always a museum since it was built.B. All the art treasures in the Louvre have been destroyed in the war.C. The Louvre was once the king’s castle in history.D. There is still a fort near the Louvre now.BWhat killed King Tut? Historians and scientists have long believed that ancient Egypt’most famous king was probably murdered. But a recent scientific study claims to have founda different answer to this more than 3,300-year-old mystery. A team of researchers now saythat King Tut, the boy ruler, died of complications (并发症)from a broken leg.Tut’s full name was Tutankhamun. He was just 9 years old when he became the ruler ofEgypt in 1333 BC. His treasure-filled tomb was discovered almost a century ago. It was filledwith royal riches, including a solid-gold coffin, a gold mask, and piles of jewelry.Unfortunately Tut died at the age of 19. Many experts have thought that Tut was killed byone of his advisers, named Ay, who wanted to be king. But thanks to a major modern scienceproject, it seems Ay is innocent.Researchers set out to solve the mystery of King Tut’s death by using the tools of science, including DNA tests and electronic scans of his mummy(木乃伊). Scientist Carsten Pusch carriedout the tests on Tut for the new study. He thinks a broken leg led to the young king’s dea than 100 walking sticks were found in King Tut’s tomb. This supports the team’s findings. Bu how could a person die from a simple broken leg?Pusch also found DNA evidence in Tut’s body that shows he had malaria, a disease carried by mosquitoes. Malaria seriously weakens the immune system(免疫系统).Pusch and his fellow researchers believe the malaria and the bone disease together caused the(骨折)to become deadly. Finally, the young king was just too weak to recover. Soking’s fractureeffects of the disease combined with the bad luck of a broken bone —not a jealous adviserlikely the real, causes of King Tut’s death.4. It has long been believed by historians and scientists that ________.A. King Tut was the youngest ruler in the world historyB. King Tut was the richest ruler in the history of EgyptC. King Tut was murdered by one of his advisersD. King Tut was poisoned by one of his servants.5. With the help of modern technology, the new study discovered that the king ________.A. died directly of a disease called malariaB. died of complications from abroken legC. died of a simple cut in the broken legD. was bitten to death by deadlymosquitoes6. Researchers uncovered the mystery of King Tut’s death by ________.A. testing the King’s immune systemB. studying the walking sticks foundin the tombC. performing experiments on mosquitoesD. applying DNA tests and electronicscan technology7. The passage mainly tells us about ________.A. a different answer to King Tut’s deathB. a famous boy king in ancient EgyptC. a treasure-filled tomb discovered in EgyptD. a team of researchers studying ancient tombsCIn the 1960s, while studying the volcanic history of Yellowstone National Park, Bob Christiansen became puzzled about something that, oddly, had not troubled anyone before: he couldn’t find the park’s volcano. It had been known for a long time that Yellowstone was volcanic what accounted for all its hot springs and other steamy features. Butin nature —that’sChristiansen couldn’t find the Yellowstone volcano anywhere.Most of us, when we talk about volcanoes, think of the classic cone(圆锥体)shapes of aFuji or Kilimanjaro, which are created when erupting magma(岩浆)piles up. These can form remarkably quickly. In 1943, a Mexican farmer was surprised to see smoke rising from a smallpart of his land. In one week he was the confused owner of a cone five hundred feet high. Withintwo years it had topped out at almost fourteen hundred feet and was more than half a mile across. Altogether there are some ten thousand of these volcanoes on Earth, all but a few hundred of them extinct. There is, however, a second less known type of volcano that doesn’t involve mountain building. These are volcanoes so explosive that they burst open in a single big crack, leavingbehind a vast hole, the caldera. Yellowstone obviously was of this second type, but Christiansencouldn’t find the caldera anywhere.Just at this time NASA decided to test some new high-altitude cameras by taking photographsof Yellowstone. A thoughtful official passed on some of the copies to the park authorities on thecenters. As soon as assumption that they might make a nice blow-up for one of the visitors’ Christiansen saw the photos, he realized why he had failed to spot the caldera: almost the wholepark —2.2 million acres —was caldera. The explosion had left a hole more than forty miles across —much too huge to be seen from anywhere at ground level. At some time in the past Yellowstonemust have blown up with a violence far beyond the scale of anything known to humans.8. What puzzled Christiansen when he was studying Yellowstone?A. Its complicated geographical features.B. Its ever-lasting influence on tourism.C. The mysterious history of the park.D. The exact location of the volcano.9. What does the second paragraph mainly talk about?A. The shapes of volcanoes.B. The impacts of volcanoes.C. The activities of volcanoes.D. The heights of volcanoes.-up” in the last paragraph most probably mean?10. What does the underlined word “blowA. Hot-air balloon.B. Digital camera.C. Big photograph.D.Bird’s view.第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

In early times, when men and women worked in groups to build a barn or harvestcrops, they danced when the work was done. The music came from the violin for the most part, but if there was no one to play a musical instrument, clapping(拍手)was used to produce the rhythm by which to dance. The early settlers danced in a store, in a barn, or in a farm kitchen.A square is formed by four couples who stand facing the centre of the square. Each couple stand on one side of the square, the boy on the left and the girl on the right.The caller is an important part of the dance, since he tells the dancers which steps to do. If the dancers do not know the steps, he teaches them.
