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.Lets look at a few of them.Robben Island in South AfricaThis island was used through the centuries as a prison,a hospital and a military base.But its 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 SpainThis 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,BrazilBrasilia is a capital city that was created from nothing in 1956.The WHL calls it “a landmark in the history 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,EthiopiaSimien 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.21.The passage mainly talks about .A.the remains of ancient cultures on the WHLB.the household heritage sites on the WHLC.some of the sites that are not so obvious on the WHLD.places of artistic or cultural importance答案C解析主旨大意题。由第一段中的“But the WHL contains a lot of sites that are not so obvious.Lets look at a few of them.”可知,C项正确。22.The WHL has listed Borders of France and Spain probably because .A.it shows us past European society through the type of agricultureB.this is an area of great natural beautyC.the mountains there have many interesting geological formationsD.people there still use a type of agriculture that is common in Europe in modern times答案A解析推理判断题。由“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.”可知,A项正确。23.Which of the following sites was listed on the WHL for its political symbol?A.Simien National Park,Ethiopia.B.The city of Brasilia,Brazil.C.Borders of France and Spain.D.Robben Island in South Africa.答案D解析细节理解题。由“But its probably most famous as a maximum-security prison for political prisoners in the twentieth century.”可知,D项正确。24.Which of the following sites was listed on the WHL for the wonderful plan of buildings?A.Robben Island in South Africa.B.The city of Brasilia,Brazil.C.Borders of France and Spain.D.Simien National Park,Ethiopia.答案B解析细节理解题。由“The WHL calls it a landmark in the history of town planning.The different areas of the city and the buildings themselves were all designed at the same time carefully.”可知,B项正确。BParis 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 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) boya 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 boythe 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 foundpeeing against a tree.25.Manneken Pis is the symbol of ,which stands on a block of the capital.A.EnglandB.ItalyC.BelgiumD.Sweden答案C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 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 the most famous landmark of Brussels.C.Because its good-looking with water running continuously.D.Because it helps the Belgians make a lot of money every year.答案B解析推理判断题。由第三段可知答案为B项。27.If Belgians regard the boy 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 treeB.in honour of the boy who saved BrusselsC.in honour of a little Belgian soldier who gave his life to his countryD.for the son of a rich man who was lost答案B解析细节理解题。由最后一段第三句可知,在这个传说中,这个小男孩用小便扑灭火焰,挽救了Brussels。28.Which of the following can you see in France?A.The Eiffel Tower.B.The Colosseum.C.The Statue of Liberty.D.Manneken Pis.答案A解析细节理解题。由第一段第一句可知埃菲尔铁塔是法国的。CWhat killed King Tut?Historians and scientists have long believed that ancient Egypts most famous king was probably murdered.But a recent scientific study claims to have found a different answer to this more than 3,300-year-old mystery.A team of researchers now say that King Tut,the boy ruler,died of complication(并发症) from a broken leg.Tuts full name was Tutankhamun.He was just 9 years old when he became the ruler of Egypt in 1333 BC.His treasure-filled tomb was discovered almost a century ago.It was filled with 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 by one of his advisers,named Ay,who wanted to be king.But thanks to a major modern science project,it seems Ay is innocent.Researchers set out to solve the mystery of King Tuts death by using the tools of science,including DNA tests and electronic scans of his mummy(木乃伊).Scientist Carsten Pusch carried out the tests on Tut for the new study.He thinks a broken leg led to the young kings death.More than 100 walking sticks were found in King Tuts tomb.This supports the teams findings.But how could a person die from a simple broken leg?Pusch also found DNA evidence in Tuts 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 kings fracture(骨折) to become deadly.Finally,the young king was just too weak to recover.So effects of the disease combined with the bad luck of a broken bonenot a jealous adviserare likely the real causes of King Tuts death.29.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答案C解析细节理解题。根据第一、三段可知,长期以来,历史学家和科学家们认为古埃及法老Tut是被他的一位谋士谋害的。30.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 a broken legC.died of a simple cut in the broken legD.was bitten to death by deadly mosquitoes答案B解析细节理解题。根据第一段最后一句再结合下文的具体描述可知,一个专家小组借助现代科技(包括DNA检测和电子扫描)发现:古埃及法老Tut死于由腿伤引起的并发症。31.Researchers uncovered the mystery of King Tuts death by .A.testing the Kings immune systemB.studying the walking sticks found in the tombC.performing experiments on mosquitoesD.applying DNA tests and electronic scan technology答案D解析细节理解题。根据第四段可知,研究人员运用了DNA检测及电子扫描技术对古埃及法老Tut的木乃伊进行了研究,从而获得了新发现。32.The passage mainly tells us about .A.a different answer to King Tuts deathB.a famous boy king in ancient EgyptC.a treasure-filled tomb discovered in EgyptD.a team of researchers studying ancient tombs答案A解析主旨大意题。通读全文可知,本文主要讲述了一项新的研究发现为古埃及法老Tut的死亡提供了一种不同的解释。DChen Guotao,born in a Miao ethnic family in the mountains of Yaoyang,Southwest Chinas Chongqing,successfully made her way to the big cities.But the love for the Miao embroidery(刺绣) made her quit the highly-paid job at a state-owned bank and returned home to promote the folk art.“I love Miao embroidery and it is our Miao peoples

artworks have been exhibited at home and abroad.“Every piece of the Miao embroidery is all handmade with all kinds of complicated skills,” she said.“A square cloth of one-meter will take at least one year to complete,so it is time-consuming and very hard to make money.”To let more Miao women inherit(传承) the skills,Chen partnered with local womens association to set up training camps.33.Why did Chen give up the highly-paid job?A.She didnt like the job.B.She missed her hometown.C.She wanted to promote Miao embroidery.D.Her parents asked her to go hometown.答案C解析细节理解题。根据第一段第二句“But the love for

third paragraph?A.Chen is a beautiful girl.B.Chen is a very clever girl.C.Chen helps her mother a lot.D.Chen likes her mother very

world come to visit famous places such as the Great Wall of China and the Sistine Chapel(西斯廷教堂) in the Vatican.36 Theyve thrown rubbish everywhere,brought more traffic and even done serious damage to ancient relics (遗迹).As for the damage,there are many different causes.For example,the paintings in the Sistine Chapel are being damaged by people breathing onto them when they visit.37 That may raise
