手惰市安逸阳光实验学校课时跟踪练40 Unit 5 Meeting your ancestorsⅠ.阅读理解AA letter written by Charles Darwin in 1875 has been returned to the Smithsonian Institution Archives(档案馆)by the FBI after being stolen twice.“We realized in the mid­1970s that it was missing，” says Effie Kapsalis，head of the Smithsonian Institution Archives.“It was noted as missing and likely taken by an intern(实习生)，from what the FBI is telling us.Word got out that it was missing when someone asked to see the letter for research purposes，and the intern put the letter back.The intern likely took the letter again once nobody was watching it.”Decades passed.Finally，the FBI received a tip that the stolen document was located very close to Washington，DC.Their art crime team recovered the letter but as unable to press charges because the time of limitations had ended.The FBI worked closely with the Archives to determine that the letter was both authentic and definitely Smithsonian's property.The letter was written by Darwin to thank an American geologist，Dr Ferdinand Vandeveer Hayden，for sending him copies of his research into the geology of the region that would become Yellowstone National Park.The letter is in fairly good condition，in spite of being out of the care of trained museum staff for so long.“It was luckily in good shape，”says Kapsalis.“And we just have to do some minor things in order to be able to unfold it.It has some glue on it that has coloured it slightly，but nothing that will prevent us from using it.After it is repaired，we will take digital photos of it and that will be available online.One of our goals is to get items of high research value or interest to the public online.”It would now be difficult for an intern，a visitor or a thief to steal a document like this.“Archiving practices have changed greatly since the 1970s，”says Kapsalis，“and we keep our high value documents in a safe that I don't even have access to.”1．What happened to Darwin's letter in the mid­1970s?A．It was recovered by the FBI.B．It was stolen more than once.C．It was put in the Archives for research purposes.D．It was purchased by the Smithsonian Institution Archives.2．What did the FBI do after the recovery of the letter?A．They proved its authenticity.B．They kept it in a special safe.C．They arrested the suspect immediately.D．They pressed criminal charges in vain.3．What is Darwin's letter about?A．The evolution of Yellowstone National Park.B．His cooperation with an American geologist.C．Some geological evidence supporting his theory.D．His acknowledgement of help from a professional.4．What will the Smithsonian Institution Archives do with the letter according to Kapsalis?A．Reserve it for research purposes only.B．Turn it into an object of high interest.C．Keep it a permanent secret.D．Make it available online.【语篇解读】达尔文的一封亲笔信失而复得，现收藏于史密森学会档案馆。

And in recent years, the city has moved6 its tragic past to become a vital engine of China’s economic growth, thanks7 to its position in the middle of China’s prosperous eastern seaboard. Growth has also8 thanks to improved ground transportation: A new bullet train linking Nanjing and Shanghai started service last year,9 travel time between the cities from several hours to just 75 minutes, and a Beijing-Shanghai high-speed line is 10 to open later this year, with a stop in Nanjing. Within the city, two metro lines were built in the last few years; 15 more are planned to begin service by 2030.Signs of Nanjing’s 11 wealth and optimism can be seen everywhere. In the heart of the downtown Xinjiekou district, a bronze statue of Sun Yat-sen, 12 the father of modern China, looks 13 over a busy 14 area.There is perhaps no more 15 symbol of the city’s transformation than the Zifeng Tower, a 1,480-foot skyscraper that opened its doors last May. 16 offices, restaurants and an InterContinental hotel, the tower is the second-tallest building in China and billed as the seventh-tallest in the world.Underlying all this development is a large Chinese and 17 student population — there are several major universities, plus a branch of Johns Hopkins’s international studies school.

I was 1 that persistence is the only way towards success. But a small 2 made me change my mind.One day my two-year-old son, 3at a dozen of“stood”color marker-pens, cheered excitedly, “Mummy, look! I did it. ”Afterwards, hecollected some ballpoint pens, 4to do the same. Hard though he tried, the ballpoint pens just lay 5 . He turned to me for help. Noticing they had either sharp or round ends, I said6 , “Mummy can’t help you. ”To my surprise, he wouldn’t listen and continued trying. . . I was dumbfounded by his persistence.My son’s behaviour reminded me of George who was always7 in his work and rarely talked to anyone.To him, 8 , there was no such thing called weekends or hol idays. Our boss praised 9 about him and 10us to look up to him as a role model.One day I met George. “Gonna work late again tonight? ”“Probably I can’t leave till midnight, ”he said.“How many hours have you put in here each week, eighty or nin ety? ”“11 . ”“Don’t you have time to be with your family at all? ”He shook his head slowly and 12a sigh. “It’s not what I wanted. But I have worked on it for so lon g. It’s much too 13 to even think about letting go. ”A year later I resigned. The 14thing I heard about him was that his wife divorced him. Since th en I’ve never seen him. But occasionally his aged 15would come to my mind.Until that day, 16knowing why the ballpoint pens couldn’t stand up, the two-year-old son had 17the impossibility after many failures. He put aside all the ballpoi nt pens and kept only those marker-pens for his“game”.18 , he already learned to let go of his p revious 19 attempts.Inour daily life, many headaches can be avoided if we know how t o 20 them and then decisively let them go immediately. 【文章大意】作者自小就被父母和老师教育: 做任何事都要执着, 但一次两岁的儿子试图将圆珠笔竖起来, 结果却没能成功, 这让她想起一个名叫George的朋友, 他是个工作狂, 心中只有工作, 没有家人, 结果妻子与他离婚。
