Would you like to spend all evening reading a lovely story with beautiful illustrations and make$ 35,000 at the same time? Millions of people all over the world tried to do just that. Only onesucceeded. The book is called Masquerade, and was written by British painter Kit Williams. Withinits pages are clues to the location of a golden jewel, and whoever figured out the clues could find andkeep the treasure.
Some years ago, Williams was asked to write a children's book. Wanting to do something no oneelse had done before, he decided to bury a golden treasure and tell where it was in the book. He be-gan painting without a clear idea of what the story would be about, where he would bury the treasure,or even what the treasure would be. As he painted, he decided that in the story a hare, or rabbit,would travel through earth, air,fire and water to deliver a gift from the moon to the sun.
After three years, he finished the paintings and then wrote the story. The treasure became an 18- carat gold hare, adorned with precious stones, and it was made by Kit Williams himself. This beauti-ful jewel ,worth around $ 35,000, depending on gold prices, was,buried somewhere in Britain, free toanyone who could decipher the clues. Williams's book kept people of all ages amused trying to solvethe mystery of Masquerade.

根據(jù)下面內(nèi)容，回答題：
If we had to rely on only five senses for survival, we would be in very sad shape indeed. Wewouldn't know up from down. We wouldn't know when to eat or drink. We wouldn't know what ourmuscles were doing or what position our limbs were in. We wouldn't know when our body was dam-aged because we wouldn't feel pain. We might freeze to death without even a shiver, or overheat with-out a drop of sweat. The five senses--touch, taste, smell, hearing and sight--respond only to stimula-tion from the outside world, but the inside world of our bodies must also receive and respond to im-portant messages.
Our internal senses keep us alive and enable us to use our external senses. In effect, the internalsenses tell our brains how to run our bodies. Hunger or thirst registers in a part of the brain called thehypothalamus(丘腦下部) ,when a lack of food chemicals are detected in the blood.
Another internal sense that controls our balance is maintained by three fluid-filled loops in theinner ear. Changes in position and gravity affect the motion of this liquid and cause changes in thebrain. A sense called kinesthesia(肌肉運(yùn)動(dòng)知覺)lets us know the relative positions of parts of ourbodies. Even our breathing is caused by a sense that identifies an overabundance of carbon dioxideand a lack of oxygen in the blood.
No one has been able to count the number of internal senses. The presence of delicate internal senses shows just how marvelously complex we human beings are.

In Japan's capital city of Tokyo, earthquake danger limits the height of buildings. The city hasspread out so far and the traffic has become so heavy that it is very difficult to get from one place toanother. The price of land,too,has become very high. All this explains why a group of Japanese landdevelopers came to the conclusion that there was nowhere to go but down. So far they have dug outspace underground for fifteen major shopping centers ,and the underground construction has only begun.What are some of the advantages of shopping and eating underground? Clean ,filtered( ~,,1~ )air is one of them. The city of Tokyo has one of the most serious smog problems in the world. An other advantage is that there won't be traffic accidents as that on the city's busy streets. Still another is the convenience of moving from place to place. You're usually right next to, or even in, a subway station.And you can even spend the night underground if you like. The Kyobashi Station, for example, indown town Tokyo, has a hotel with a bar, restaurant and barbershop.

根據(jù)下面內(nèi)容，回答題：
The discovery of a dwarfed (矮個(gè)的)"human being" who lived in Flores, Indonesia, up to 18,000 years ago is changing the way we think about the human family. This "Flores Human"wasthree foot tall and her brain was smaller than that of the average chimp(黑猩猩) ,yet she and herrelatives apparently lived fully human lives. They seem to have made tools, worked together to findfd and cook it, and perhaps even burried their dead with ceremony.
It was a major surprise to find tools associated with the new human family member. The tools arelike those formerly seen only with European fossils (化石)from our own species;Homo sapiens (智人) ;and the oldest of them were made 9,400 years ago. Homo sapiens is thought to have arrived inthe island about 4,000 years ago, much too late to be responsible for the tools. If this tiny humanmade the tools, then the inside structure (結(jié)構(gòu))of its brain must have been more like our own than a chimp's, despite being just a third the size of ours.
This "new human" was suspected to be a dwarfed branch of Homo erectus( 直立人). When crea-tures are separated in regions with rare resources but few enemies, being big is a disadvantage, andevolution tends to shrink them, a process known as island dwafng. Could natural selection make a hu-man smaller while keeping--even improving--mental ability? Quite possibly, believes ChristopherWills of the University of California.
Has the "Flores Human" even shown the ability of language? "I find it difficult to imagine thatpeople could make tools, use fire, and kill large animals without fairly advanced communication," Willssays. Did "Flores Human" possess the basic components of human culture--such as the burying of thedead with ceremony? Emiliano Bruner of the Italian Institute points out that Indonesia's hot,wet envi-ronment is bad for fossilization. It is reasonable to assume,he says,that the 18,000-year-old bones ofthe most complete Flores woman were well-preserved because she was buried with special care.
48According to the passage," Flores Human"__________ .
A.lived a partly human lifeB.was a branch of Homo sapiensC.used tools before Homo sapiens arrivedD.had a brain as large as a common chimp's
參考答案：C
參考解析：
依據(jù)在第二段中，比較隱蔽，根據(jù)“H0— mo sapiens is thought to have arrived in the island about4，000 years a90，much too late to be responsible for thetools.”可知答案為c項(xiàng)。也可以用排除法，A、B、D三項(xiàng)與文章內(nèi)容矛盾。
49The underlined part "this tiny human" in Paragraph 2 refers to __________ .
A.a chimpB.Flores HumanC.Homo sapiensD.Homo erectus
參考答案：B
參考解析：
本文是圍繞Flores Human展開的，A、C、D三項(xiàng)都只是說明其中的一部分情況。根據(jù)上下文可知B項(xiàng)正確。
50This passage mainly talks about __________ .
A.the tools made by "Flores Human"B.the language used by "Flores Human"C.the evolution of "Flores Human"D.the major surprising findings about "Flores Human"
參考答案：D
參考解析：
D項(xiàng)把A、B、C三項(xiàng)都概括了。A、B、C三項(xiàng)都是片面的，故最佳答案為D項(xiàng)。
51According to the passage, it is believed that "Flores Human"__________ .
A.was dwarfed by its enemiesB.could use languageC.left a lot of fossils in the hot and wet environmentD.reached Flores 40,000 years ago
參考答案：B
參考解析：
根據(jù)最后一段可知選B項(xiàng)。A、c、D三項(xiàng)的內(nèi)容均與文章不符。
根據(jù)下面內(nèi)容，回答題：
Unlike modern animal scientists, dinosaur scientists cannot sit on a hillside and use telescopesto watch dinosaurs in order to know how they lived and whether they were good parents. Instead, theyhave to search hard for information from dinosaurs' fossils (恐龍化石)because dinosaurs died outmillions of years ago.
It's very difficult for the scientists to reach an agreement because different results can be gotfrom the same fossils. Many fossils of the same kind of dinosaurs have been dug out from oneplace. They might have formed when an entire group of dinosaurs got stuck (陷人) all at once. Orthey might have been the result of dinosaurs getting stuck one after another over a course of a few centuries. Thus we can say that dinosaurs might have in the first case lived in big groups and inthe second lived alone.
Though there are two different results, dinosaur scientists now generally agree tha~" at least somekinds of dinosaurs lived in big groups. "That's pretty much settled at this point," says Paul Sereno.A kind of dinosaurs called Sauropods left behind tracks in the western United States that appear torun north and south, suggesting that they even moved long distances together.
As to whether dinosaurs cared for their young, dinosaur scientists have turned to the closest liv-ing relatives of dinosaurs--birds and crocodiles--for possible models. Birds give a lot of care to theiryoung, while crocodiles just help their young to the water. The discovered fossils of dinosaurs sittingon their eggs and staying with their young suggest the parents were taking care of their babies, but westill cannot say that all dinosaurs did the same.
There is still a long way to go before the above questions could be answered. Dinosaur scientists
will have to find more proof to reach an agreement.
52Dinosaur scientists can get information directly by ____________ .
A.studying dinosaur fossilsB.examinipg modern animalsC.watching dinosaursD.using tel'es~opes
參考答案：A
參考解析：
