The footprints were uncovered at the remains of a large building in PiRamesses, which was Egypts capital during the rule of the King Ramesses .They have a size of 1517 centimeters, thus relating to children between 3 and 5 years old.The archaeologists cannot yet say if there was more than one child since the differences in size are not big enough for them to distinguish.The footprints are also not so well protected that the archaeologists cant tell so far any other features of the feet.Moreover, the reason for the footprints presence remains a mystery.Although no modern concept of banning child labor existed at that time, the footprints seem to be too small even for children who could work.Whats more, it appears unlikely that the footprints belong to royal kids since they couldnt be allowed to play in the mud.Built on an island in the easternmost Nile branch, some 65 miles northeast of Cairo, which is the capital of Egypt now, PiRamesses had an extension of about 10 square miles.With a population of over 300,000, it was one of the largest cities of ancient Egypt.PiRamesses was strong during the 66 years of Ramesses s rule and for more than a century after his death.Then the city began to wane.Just decades later, its monuments (纪念碑) and temples were destroyed.Abandoned and forgotten, PiRamesses has been buried in the desert sand for thousands of years.Today nothing of the citys splendid past can be found at the surface.However, its monumental remains have been identified through modern technologies.The findings are exciting, but the archaeologists think there should be more.They are planning to make a further exploration in the area in the next season, hoping to find out a little more about the footprints and the city.语篇解读：考古学家们在埃及古城比兰赛发现了神秘的古代埃及小孩的脚印，并由此揭开了这座古城神秘的面纱。1What can we know about the footprints from the first two paragraphs?AThe footprints were discovered by a farmer.BThe footprints belong to some royal kids.CAll the footprints e from the same person.DPeople still dont know why the footprints existed.解析：选D细节理解题。根据第二段中的“Moreover, the reason for the footprints presence remains a mystery.”可知，人们还不知道这些脚印出现的原因。2What does the underlined word “wane” in Paragraph 3 mean?ABee stronger.BBee weaker and smaller.Ce into existence.DGain much popularity.解析：选B词义猜测题。根据下文“Just decades later, its monuments (纪念碑) and temples were destroyed.”可推断出wane在此处意为“衰退，衰弱”。3What is the passage mainly about?AHow the footprints were discovered.BWhy PiRamesses disappeared.CThe development process of Egypt.DThe findings of an exploration in Egypt.解析：选D主旨大意题。根据第一段内容及文章大意可知本文主要讲述了考古学家们在埃及的一次考古发现。.阅读七选五(2019武汉市武昌区调研)On December 22 I landed in the land of the “American Dream”. _1_ Here is one of the things Ive struggled with during my almost one year in the States._2_ My uncle and aunt joked that I brought rain from Saigon to America.

He has discovered that how we deal with money in our daytoday life has more meaning than we usually think, and from it we can see what one really values in life. He says our relations with others often bee clearly defined when money enters the picture. You might have wonderful friendship with somebody and you think that you are very good friends. But you will know him thoroughly only when you ask him to lend you some money. If he does, it brings something to the relationship that seems stronger than ever before. Or it can suddenly weaken the relationship if he doesnt. This person may say that he has a certain feeling, but if it is not carried out in the money world, there is something less real about it. Since money is so important to us, we consider those who possess a lot of it to be very important. The author interviewed some millionaires in researching his book with the question “What is the most surprising thing you have discovered about being rich, because you are a selfmade man？” And the answer goes like this：The most surprising thing is why people give me so much respect. I am nothing. I dont know much. All I am is rich. People just have an idea of making more and more money, but what is it for? How much do I need for any given purposes in my life? In his book, the professor has uncovered an important need in modern society: to bring back the idea that money is an instrument rather than the end. Money plays an important role in the material world, but expecting money to give happiness may be missing the meaning of life.参考范文：A US professors found how one treats money daily is more meaningful and it can reflect what one treasures in life. (要点1) He claims money matters in defining relationships and its a good way to test friendship. (要点2) Money is generally considered important to us, so are rich people; but some millionaires dont feel so, thinking being rich isnt worth so much attention.
