But if we had kept a book and written in it an account of _31_ each day,we should be able to give an answer _32_ the question. It is the same in the history. _33_ have been forgotten because we do not have any written account of them. Sometimes men _34_ a record of the important happenings in _35_ country,_36_ often it was destroyed by fire or in a war. Sometimes there was never any written record at all because the people _37_ did not know how to write. For example,we know _38_ the people who lived in China 4,000 years ago,because they could write and _39_ written records for these who live _40_ them. But we know _41_ nothing about the people who lived even 200 years ago in Central Africa,because they _42_.Sometimes,of course,even if the people cannot write,they may know something of the past. They have learned about it from _43_ 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 _44_ many generations (后代)。
Most people are proud to tell _45_ their fathers did in the past. This we may call “remembered history”。
_46_ has now been written down. It is not so exact _47_ so valuable to us _48_ written history is,because words are much more easily _49_ when used again and again in speech than copied in writing. But _50_ no written records,such spoken stories are often very helpful.( )31. A. what to do B. what we did C. how to do D. how we did( )32. A. for B. in C. on D. to( )33. A. all things B.

Now divers still search for valuable things in sunken ships, but they also try to bring to the surface the ships themselves, or parts of them. The value of different kinds of metals has increased greatly over the last twenty or thirty years and even though a ship has been under the sea for many years, it may be worth a great deal.One famous sunken ship is the “Lusitania”, which sank off the southern coast of Ireland in 1915 with a loss of nearly, 1,500 lives. It has four huge propellers made of an expensive metal. Today each of those propellers is worth $ 300,000 or more. The ship lying on the sea-bed has been brought by a man called John Light. He paid about$ 1,200,000 for the whole ship. He hopes to bring up those propellers and sell them. He also hopes to sell other parts of the ship, when he has brought them to the surface, for about $ 600,000.51. Divers today try to bring to the surface _______.A. gold and jewelsB. parts of shipsC. whole shipsD. all of the above52. Diver try to bring up metals because ________.A.they have been in the sea for a long timeB.gold and jewels are not valuable thingsC.some kinds of metals are worth a lot of moneyD.it is easy to bring up metals53. The word “surface” in the passage means the ______.A. marketB. airC. top of a liquidD. sea54. John Light hopes that he may be able to sell all the parts of the “Lusitania” forabout _____.A. $12,000B. $300,000C. $1,200,000D. $1,800,00055. John Light bought the “Lusitania” _______.A. before 1915B. before it sankC. after it sankD. after they had brought up the propellers Passage TwoRecently in the hope of earning both money and social experience, I became a door-to- door salesman.I once read a saying. “If somebody wants something of you rs, you will be treated as warmly as spring, but if they don‟t you may be treated as coldly as winter.” You may consider this an exaggeration (夸张), but if you are a salesman, it is clearly correct.You would never have found it to be so true if you hadn‟t been a salesman. You needn‟t stand doubtful looks and unfriendly comments; you needn‟t listen to something completely wrong and nod to say that it was quite right, you needn‟t worry about being refused time after time; you needn‟t always keep patience and a smile; you needn‟t repeat the same sentences over and over again; you needn‟t talk tosomebody you dislike ....I did this work for a month, then I decided to give it up; Apart front the reasons above, I found I was paying too much attention to the job and thus sacrificing my study time. The latest test result proved that my grades were getting worse.Even worse, I hadn‟t enough time to join my classmates in college activities. Some times 1 felt lonely and unhappy because of both my study and my part-time job. Now I don‟t think it is worth doing such a thing for even though I was earning money it came at great cost.Newspapers and magazines often publish stories about excellent students who do part-time work while also keeping high scores in class. But according to my experience, park-time work can have some strong negative influences (负面影响) on study.Most students don‟t view the relationship between study and work correctly. In my opinion, if it isn‟t a must for financial (财政的) reasons, students should be careful about taking up a part-time job.56. From the text, we can tell that the writer is _____.A. an unemployed manB. a middle-school studentC. a college studentD. a door-to-door salesman57. What caused the writer to give up his part time job?a. His grades were getting worse.b. He did the job for a month.c. He was once a salesman.d. He often missed sortie college activities.e. Sometimes he felt tired and unhappy.A. b, c and dB. a, c and eC. a, b and dD. a, d and e58. Which of the following words has the closest meaning to the underlined word“sacrificing”?A. LosingB. WastingC. UsingD. Getting59. The writer thought_____.A. doing a part-time job was unnecessaryB. part-time jobs had good effect upon studyC. it was hard to deal with the relationship between study and workD. part-time jobs would be good for every college student60. What would be the best title for the text _____.A. Part-time Jobs Are UsefulB. Part-time Jobs Can Cost DearC. Students Shouldn‟t Take Part-time JobsD. Part-time Jobs Are Important to Many StudentsPassage ThreeThe home computer industry has been growing rapidly in the United States for the last ten years. Computers used to be large, expensive machines that were very difficult to use. But scientists and technicians have been making them smaller and cheaper while at the same time they have been made easier to use. As a result, their popularity has been increasing as more people have been buying computers for their homes and businesses.Computers have been designed to store information and compute problems that are difficult for human beings to work out. Some have voices that speak with the operators. Stores use computers to keep records of their inventories (库存货物) and to send bills to their customers. Offices use computers to copy letters, record business and keep in touch with other offices. People have been using computers in their homes to keep track of the money they spend.One important new use for computers is for entertainment. Many new games have been designed to be played on the computers. People of all ages have been playing these games. People also have been buying home computers to play computer games, watch movies and listen to concerts at home. They have become very popular indeed.61.
