One day she decided that she wanted to bee a doctor. That was nearly impossible for a woman in the middle of the nineteenth century. After writing many letters asking for admission(录取) to medical schools, she was finally accepted by a doctor in Philadelphia. She was so determined that she taught school and gave music lessons to get money for the cost of schooling. In 1849, after graduation from medical school. she decided to further her education in Paris. She wanted to be a surgeon(外科医师) , but a serious eye problem forced her to give up the idea.Upon returning to the United States, she found it difficult to start her own practice because she was a woman. By 1857 Elizabeth and her sister, also a doctor, along with another woman doctor, managed to open a new hospital, the first for women and children. Besides being the first woman physician and founding her own hospital , she also set up the first medical school for women.1. Why couldnt Elizabeth Blackwell realize her dream of being a surgeon? A.

But if we had kept a book and had written in it an account of what we did each day，we should be able to give an answer to the question. It is the same in history. Many things have been forgotten because we do not have any written account of them. Sometimes men did keep a record of the most important happenings in their country，but often it was destroyed by fire or in a warSometimes there was never any written record at all because the people of that time and place did not know how to writeFor example，we know a good deal about the people who lived in China 4，000 years ago, because they could write and leave written records for those who lived after themBut we know almost nothing about the people who lived even 200 years ago in central Africa Because they had not learned to write Sometimes, of course，even if the people cannot write，they may know something of the pastThey have heard about it from older people，and often songs and dances and stories have been made about the most important happenings，and these have been sung and acted and told for many generations. For most people are proud to tell what their fathers did in the pastThis we may call “remembered history”Some of it has now been written down. It is not so exact or so valuable to us as written history is，because words are much more easily changed when used again and again in speech than when copied in writingBut where there are no written records，such spoken stories are often very helpful6. Which of the following ideas is not suggested in the passage? A“Remembered history”，pared with written history，is less reliableBWritten records of the past play the most important role in our learning of the human historyCA written account of our daily activities helps US to be able to answer many questions DWhere there are no written records,there is no history7We know very little about the central Africa 200 years ago because _ Athere was nothing worth being written down at that time B. the people there ignored the importance of keeping a record Cthe written records were perhaps destroyed by a fire Dthe people there did not know how to write8“Remembered history” refers to _ Ahistory based on a persons imagination B. stories of important happenings passed down from mouth to mouth C. songs and dances about the most important events D. both B and C9“Remembered history” is regarded as valuable only when _. A. it is written down B. no written account is available Cit proves to be time Dpeople are interested in it10 .The passage suggests that we could have learned much more about our past than we do now if the ancient people had _Akept a written record of every past event B. not burnt their written records in warsCtold exact stories of the most important happenings Dmade more songs and dancesCHave you ever wondered why birds sing? Maybe you thought that they were just happy. After all, you probably sing when you are happy.Some scientists believe that birds do sing some of the time just because they are happy. However, they sing most of the time for a very different reason. Their singing is actually a warning to other birds to stay out of their territory.Do you know what a “territory” is? A territory is an area that an animal, usually the male, claims (声称) as its own. Only he and his family are wele there. No other families of the same species are wele. Your house is your territory where only your family and friends are wele. If a stranger should enter your territory and threaten you, you might shout. Probably this would be enough to frighten him away.If so, you have actually frightened the stranger away without having to fight him. A bird does the same thing. But he expects an outsider almost any time, especially at nesting (筑巢) season. So he is screaming all the time, whether he can see an outsider or not. This screaming is what we call a birds song, and it is usually enough to keep an outsider away.11.Some scientists believe that most of the time birds singing is actually _.A. an expression of happiness B. a way of warningC. an expression of anger D. a way of greeting12.What is a birds “territory”？A. A place where families of other species are not accepted.B. A place where a bird may shout at the top of its voice.C. An area for which birds fight against each other.D. An area which a bird considers to be its own.13. Why do birds keep on singing at nesting season?A. Because they want to invite more friends.B. Because their singing helps frighten outsiders away.C. Because they want to find outsiders around.D. Because their singing helps get rid of their fears.14. How does the writer explain birds singing?A. By paring birds with human beings. B. By reporting experiment results.C. By describing birds daily life. D. By telling a birds story.15.What does the underline word “screaming” in paragraph 4 mean?A. 哭喊声 B. 令人惊愕的 C. 尖叫声 D. 尖叫的第二节 完形填空（共20小题；每小题1.5分，满分15分）Mrs. Jones was over eighty, but she still drove her old car like a woman half her age.
