Who Built Giza's Pyramids（金字塔）?
1 .For centuries,the pyramids of Giza have been timeless symbols of Egyptian culture.But who actually built them? For years, we did not know for sure.But archeologists（考古学家）recently discovered an ancient village near the pyramids.Close by,there was also a ceme-tery（墓地）where pyramid builders were buried.From studying these places, archeologists can now confirm that the pyramids were not built by slaves or foreigners.Ordinary Egyptians built them.
2 .It took about eighty years to build the pyramids.According to archeologists,about 20,000～30,000 people were involved in completing the task.The workers had different roles.Some dug up the rock,some moved it,and some shaped it into blocks.People also worked on different teams,each with its own name.On a wall in Khufu's Great Pyramid,for example,a group of workers wrote“Friends of Khufu.”Teams often competed to do a job faster.
3.Life for these workers was hard.“We can see that in their skeletons（骨架）,”says Azza Mohamed Sarry El-Din,a scientist studying bodies found in the cemetery.The bones show signs of arthritis（关节炎）,which developed from carrying heavy things for a long time.Archeologists have also found many female skeletons in the village and cemetery.The damage to their bones is similar to the men's.Their lives may have been even tougher:male workers lived to age 40～45,but women to only 30～35.However,workers usually had enough food,and they also had medical care if they got sick or hurt.
4 .The work was challenging,but laborers were proud of their work.“It's because they were not just building the tomb of their king,” says Egyptian archeologist Zahi Hawass.“They were building Egypt.It was a national project,and everyone was a participant.”

all actually dream_________(52)as frequently as the rest of us,______(53)they may not remember

seldom remember those dreams in_________(55)detail but merely retain an untidy mixture of seemingly
unrelated _________（56).Dreams are not simply visual一we dream with all our_________(57),so that we

One of the world's oldest_________(58)written documents is the Egyptian Book of Dreams.This

dream interpretation,although unfortunately there are almost as many meanings for a particular dream
_________(65)there are books._________(53)
A:though
B:besides
C:however
D:despite答案：A解析：单词claim意思是“断言，宣称”，表示在没有证据的情况下做出某种论断，符合题意。
本题的四个选项中also和only常放置在谓语动词的前面；quite常用来修饰形容词，表 示“很……”，故选B。这里，just as frequently as…意思为“正和……一样频繁”。
此空应该用表示转折意义的词。第三句大意为：那些自称不做梦的人其实正和其他人 一样频繁做梦，只是他们可能记不起来了。单词besides表示“而且”; however虽表示转折，但 其后常使用逗号连接；despite表示“虽然”，但是其后常跟诸如fact之类的名词，故选A
短语be aware of是固定搭配，意思为“意识到，知道”，这里表示“知道自己夜夜做梦”, 符合题意。
短语in great detail意思为“非常详细地”，符合题意。其他选项都不与detail一词构成 搭配，故选A。
单词impression意思为“印象”; condition意思为“条件，状况”; vision意思为“视力，景 象”; collection意思为“收集”。四个选项中只有C项符合题意，在句子中表示人们只能记住模 糊、看起来不相关的景象，故选C。
effort意思为“努力”; sense意思为“感官，感觉”; taste意思为“味觉，滋味”; word表示 “词语，字”。四个选项中只有B项符合题意，表示“我们做梦时所有的感官都在起作用”，故 选B。
单词known意思为“被人知道的，知名的”; considered意思为“被考虑的”; regarded意 思为“被视为……，被留意的”; estimated意思为“估计的，预计的”。四个选项中只有A项符合 题意，此句的意思为“世界上最老的、被人们熟知的文字记载……”，故选A。
此空及其后内容是see的宾语部分，因此应选C，即以that引导宾语从句。
单词would接动词原形表示某种趋势或者依据安排要发生的事情；C、D两项需要后加 to表示“应该……；有必要……”，故选B。
短语in time意思为“及时”，故选A。
单词day在这里表示“时日，时期”，其他各项均无此意，故选D。
单词study作动词意思为“研究，学习”; attach意思为“连接，认为有”; reach意思为“到 达，达到”; explain意思为“解释”，因此应选D，表示“人们试图解析梦，并解释其重要性”。
单词subject意思为“主题，科目”;fact意思为“事实”; major意思为“专业”; impact意思 为“影响”，因此应选A，表示“有许多有关梦的解析主题的书”。
固定短语as…as意思为“和……一样”，本句的意思为“……对梦的意思的解析和相关 主题的书一样多”，故选C。 -

The City Planning
In the past,cities usually grew in a disorderly way because few cities were built according to a plan.In the late 1 800s,the idea of a"beautiful city"came into_______(51).People felt that a city should have wide street,parks,and a civic centre.People_______(52)to realize that cities need to be planned.
In the first part of the 1900s,cities began to_______(53)zoning laws.Zoning laws say what kind of building can be put up in different parts of a city.A factory cannot be put up on land _______(54)for apartments.Apartments,_______(55),cannot be built on land for houses.
Meanwhile,cities were growing rapidly and changing almost_______(56).They faced many problems.Sometimes the streets in a city caused traffic_______(57).Sometimes there were not enough schools or hospitals for all the people who needed them. As people moved_______(58)to new areas of the city,older parts of town often became run-down.
At first,citizens_______(59)groups that tried to solve the problems a city faced.Today, most large cities have city planning board_______(60)part of their city government. On the board are city_______(61)who have special training. Many of them have college_______(62)in city planning. They must know how a city's land can be_______(63)used.They_______(64)new areas of the city and decide how to improve older_______(65).City planing boards help the city meet the needs of all the people who live there._________(65)
A:square
B: division
C:centers
D:section答案：D解析：come into being为固定搭配，意思是“形成、产生”，例如：When did the Great Britain come into being?英国是何时形成的？原文是“美丽城市”的理念应运而生，因此选C。
根据上下文判断，随着美丽城市理念的诞生，人们开始意识到城市需要被规划。come有“开始”的意思。所以此处选C最合适，其他各项均不合题意。fail失败, incline 和tend都有“倾向于”的意思。
根据词语的搭配可以知道，原文应该指的是“城市开始通过城市区划法”，三个选项中只有选项A最合适，pass有“通过”的意思，和law“法律”搭配使用正确。
空缺处需要填的是过去分词引导的定语从句，省略了which be。这里指的是被划分出来建公寓的地区不能盖工厂，zone更合适，意思是“将……划为特殊区域”。
however表示一种转折的关系。本句意思为“工厂不能建在用于盖公寓的土地上。然而，公窝也不能盖在建造大宅的土地上”。所以选项D符合。
根据前半部分即城市在快速地发展，可以判断出城市的变化也是很迅速的，选项D正确，意为“突然，很快”，与前面的rapidly呼应。
traffic jam意思是“交通堵塞”，较之选项B，选项A更符合常理，即城市里的街道会造成交通堵塞。
本句提到了老地区变得破败不堪，人们应该是搬出旧城区，搬进新的城市地区，所以选择C，后面接的介词to指“搬到……”。
只有form最适合和后面的group搭配使用。form意为“组成”，例如：The two parties formed a coalition．两个政党组成了联合政府。本句意思是“市民们组成了试图解决城市面临的问题的团体”。
三个选项中只有as适合，意思是“作为”。句子意思是“大多数的大城市都有了作为城市政府一部分的城市规划委员会”。
逻辑题。on the board意思是“委员会里”。前面提到大多数城市都有了 city planning board即“城市规划委员会”，那么委员会里必然有城市规划师，所以A正确。
degree意思是“学历”，后面常接介词in指在某专业方面的学历，原句中还有信号词college,所以选项degree最合适。level水平，qualification资质，height高度。
best这里是副词，意思是“最好地，最高标准地”，比较carefully （小心地）, suitably（合适地）以及cleverly（聪明地），选项B更为合适。原句意思是“这些城市规划师必须知道如何才能以最好的方式使用城市里的土地”。
lay out为固定搭配，意思是“规划，设计”。例如：When the local governments lay out the car parks, they must estimate the numbers of cars in these districts．当地方政府规划停车场时，他们必须先估计市区里的汽车数量。原文是“他们规划城市的新地区”。
这里的意思是“他们……决定如何来提升一个老城区”。section除了有 “部分”的意思外还指“（城市等的）地区，（街区等的）地段”。square意为“广场”,division意为“部分”,centers意为“中心”。 -

however表示一种转折的关系。本句意思为“工厂不能建在用于盖公寓的土地上。然而，公窝也不能盖在建造大宅的土地上”。所以选项D符合。
根据前半部分即城市在快速地发展，可以判断出城市的变化也是很迅速的，选项D正确，意为“突然，很快”，与前面的rapidly呼应。
traffic jam意思是“交通堵塞”，较之选项B，选项A更符合常理，即城市里的街道会造成交通堵塞。
本句提到了老地区变得破败不堪，人们应该是搬出旧城区，搬进新的城市地区，所以选择C，后面接的介词to指“搬到……”。
只有form最适合和后面的group搭配使用。form意为“组成”，例如：The two parties formed a coalition．两个政党组成了联合政府。本句意思是“市民们组成了试图解决城市面临的问题的团体”。
三个选项中只有as适合，意思是“作为”。句子意思是“大多数的大城市都有了作为城市政府一部分的城市规划委员会”。
逻辑题。on the board意思是“委员会里”。前面提到大多数城市都有了 city planning board即“城市规划委员会”，那么委员会里必然有城市规划师，所以A正确。
degree意思是“学历”，后面常接介词in指在某专业方面的学历，原句中还有信号词college,所以选项degree最合适。level水平，qualification资质，height高度。
best这里是副词，意思是“最好地，最高标准地”，比较carefully （小心地）, suitably（合适地）以及cleverly（聪明地），选项B更为合适。原句意思是“这些城市规划师必须知道如何才能以最好的方式使用城市里的土地”。
lay out为固定搭配，意思是“规划，设计”。例如：When the local governments lay out the car parks, they must estimate the numbers of cars in these districts．当地方政府规划停车场时，他们必须先估计市区里的汽车数量。原文是“他们规划城市的新地区”。
这里的意思是“他们……决定如何来提升一个老城区”。section除了有 “部分”的意思外还指“（城市等的）地区，（街区等的）地段”。square意为“广场”,division意为“部分”,centers意为“中心”。 -

问答题Today, thanks to advances in brain research, we know that reading with a child has intellectual, emotional and physical benefits that can enhance the child’s development. The intimacy of sharing books and stories strengthens the emotional bonds between a parent and child, helps a child learn words and concepts, and actually stimulates the growth of a baby’s brain. Scientists have discovered that children whose parents read and talk to them during the first three years of life create a stronger foundation for future reading success.正确答案：
如今,在大脑研究方面所取得的进展,使我们知道和孩子一起阅读对他的智力、情感和身体都有益处,可以促进他的成长。与孩子亲昵地分享图书和故事会增强父母与孩子之间的亲情,帮助孩子学习词汇和概念,并能激发孩子大脑的发育。科学家发现,三岁前给孩子念故事,和孩子交谈,这会为他们将来的阅读能力奠定较为坚实的基础。解析： 暂无解析 -

Who Built Giza ' s Pyramids（金字塔）?
1 For centuries,the pyramids of Giza have been timeless symbols of Egyptian culture.But who actually
built them? For years,we did not know for sure. But archeologists（考古学家）recently discovered an ancient
village near the pyramids. Close by,there was also a cemetery（墓地）where pyramid builders were buried.
From studying these places,archeologists can now confirm that the pyramids were not built by slaves or
foreigners.Ordinary Egyptians built them.
2 It took about eighty years to build the pyramids.According to archeologists,about 20,000一30,000
people were involved in completing the task.The workers had different roles.Some dug up the rock;some
moved it;and some shaped it into blocks.People also worked on different teams,each with its own name.On
a wall in Khufu's Great Pyramid,for example,a group of workers wrote"Friends of Khufu".Teams often
competed to do a job faster.
3 Life for these workers was hard."We can see that in their skeletons（骨架）,"says Azza Mohamed
Sarry El-Din,a scientist studying bodies found in the cemetery. The bones show signs of arthritis（关节炎）,
which developed from carrying heavy things for a long time.Archeologists have also found many female skele--
tons in the village and cemetery.The damage to their bones is similar to the men'S.Their lives may have
been even tougher:male workers lived to age 40-45,but women to only 30-35.However,workers usually
had enough food,and they also had medical care if they got sick or hurt.
4 The work was challenging,but laborers were proud of their work.“It's because they were not just
building the tomb of their king,"says Egyptian archeologist Zahi Hawass."They were building Egypt. It was
a national project,and everyone was a participant."Paragraph4____________
A:Builders of the Pramids
B:Egyptian Slaves
C:Pyramid Builders' Jobs
D:Pyramid Builders' Tough Lives
E:An Importsnt Nstional Project
F:Female Pyranid Builders: the Challenges答案：E解析：第一段是围绕第二句话“·but who actuslly built them？”展开的,因此第一段讲的是Buildersof the pyramids。
由第二段第四句话“Some dug up the rock;some moved it;and some Shaped it into blocks.”可知，本段讲的是Pyramid builders'job。
第三段的主题句是第一句“Life for these workers was hard.”由此可知，本段讲的是 Pyramid builders'tough lives。
从Zahi Hawass的话中可知，工人做的工作是一项重要的国家级工程。
文章第一段最后一句话提到“Ordinary Egyptians built them.”
文章第二段第三句话及第五句话分别提到“The workers had different roles.”和“People also worked on different teams"，由此可知答案为C。
文章第三段第三句话提到“The bones show signs of arthritis, which developed from carry- ing heavy things for a long time.”以及第五句提到“The damage to their bones is similar to the men' s.”由此可知答案为B。

Some Things We Know About Language
Many things about language are a mystery,and many will always remain so.But some things we do know.
First , we know that all human beings have a language of some sort.There is no race（种族）of men anywhere on earth so backward that it has no language,no set of speech sounds by which the people communicate with one another.Furthermore,in historical times,there has never been a race of men without a language. Second,there is no such thing as a primitive（原始的）language.There are many people whose cultures are undeveloped,who are,as we say,uncivilized,but the languages they speak are not primitive.In all known languages we can see complexities that must have been tens of thousands of years in developing. This has not always been well understood;indeed,the direct contrary has often been stated.Popular ideas of the language of the American Indians will illustrate.Many people have supposed that the Indians communicated in a very primitive system of noises.Study has proved this to be nonsense.There are,or were, hundreds of American Indian languages,and all of them turn out to be very complicated and very old.They are certainly different from the languages that most of us are familiar with,but they are no more primitive than English and Greek.
A third thing we know about language is that all languages are perfectly adequate.That is,each one is a perfect means of expressing the culture of the people who speak the language. Finally,we know that language changes.It is natural and normal for language to change;the only languages which do not change are the dead ones.This is easy to understand if we look backward in time. Change goes on in all aspects of language.Grammatical features change as do speech sounds,and changes in vocabulary are sometimes very extensive and may occur very rapidly.Vocabulary is the least stable part of any language.According to the third paragraph,the author thinks that______.
A:there exist some primitive languages in the world
B:there are many people who don't have a language
C:no languages in the world haven't been well developed
D:there are some languages we know having little complexities答案：C解析：根据第二段第一句中的“First"，第三段第一句中的“second，第五段第一句中的“Athird thing"，以及第六段第一句中“Finally”可知，作者主要从四个方面来淦释语言的特征。
根据第三段最后一句可知，所有已知的语言无不经过了数万年的充分发展。
第四段第一句中的“This”指的就是第三段所诊释的内容，再结合第三段第一句" Second , there is no such thing as a primitive language.”可知，A项正确。
由第五段可知，A、B两项表述正确。根据第四段最后一句可知，作者认为不同的语言没有发展水平上的差别，美国的印第安语和英语一样复杂，故C项表述正确，D项表述不正确。
根据第六段最后一句可知，词汇是所有语言中最不稳定的部分，即它最容易发生变化。 -

A:pass
B:write
C:build
D:have答案：A解析：come into being为固定搭配，意思是“形成、产生”，例如：When did the Great Britain come into being?英国是何时形成的？原文是“美丽城市”的理念应运而生，因此选C。
根据上下文判断，随着美丽城市理念的诞生，人们开始意识到城市需要被规划。come有“开始”的意思。所以此处选C最合适，其他各项均不合题意。fail失败, incline 和tend都有“倾向于”的意思。
根据词语的搭配可以知道，原文应该指的是“城市开始通过城市区划法”，三个选项中只有选项A最合适，pass有“通过”的意思，和law“法律”搭配使用正确。
空缺处需要填的是过去分词引导的定语从句，省略了which be。这里指的是被划分出来建公寓的地区不能盖工厂，zone更合适，意思是“将……划为特殊区域”。
however表示一种转折的关系。本句意思为“工厂不能建在用于盖公寓的土地上。然而，公窝也不能盖在建造大宅的土地上”。所以选项D符合。
根据前半部分即城市在快速地发展，可以判断出城市的变化也是很迅速的，选项D正确，意为“突然，很快”，与前面的rapidly呼应。
traffic jam意思是“交通堵塞”，较之选项B，选项A更符合常理，即城市里的街道会造成交通堵塞。
本句提到了老地区变得破败不堪，人们应该是搬出旧城区，搬进新的城市地区，所以选择C，后面接的介词to指“搬到……”。
只有form最适合和后面的group搭配使用。form意为“组成”，例如：The two parties formed a coalition．两个政党组成了联合政府。本句意思是“市民们组成了试图解决城市面临的问题的团体”。
三个选项中只有as适合，意思是“作为”。句子意思是“大多数的大城市都有了作为城市政府一部分的城市规划委员会”。
逻辑题。on the board意思是“委员会里”。前面提到大多数城市都有了 city planning board即“城市规划委员会”，那么委员会里必然有城市规划师，所以A正确。
degree意思是“学历”，后面常接介词in指在某专业方面的学历，原句中还有信号词college,所以选项degree最合适。level水平，qualification资质，height高度。
best这里是副词，意思是“最好地，最高标准地”，比较carefully （小心地）, suitably（合适地）以及cleverly（聪明地），选项B更为合适。原句意思是“这些城市规划师必须知道如何才能以最好的方式使用城市里的土地”。
lay out为固定搭配，意思是“规划，设计”。例如：When the local governments lay out the car parks, they must estimate the numbers of cars in these districts．当地方政府规划停车场时，他们必须先估计市区里的汽车数量。原文是“他们规划城市的新地区”。

正确答案： A解析：
细节题。录音最后提到教育部门为吉普赛小孩成立特殊学校让他们接受教育，故选A。
【录音原文】
Around the year 1000A.D., some people from Northwest India began to travel westwards. Nobody knows why. After leaving their homes, they did not settle down again but spent their lives moving from one place to another. Their later generations are called the Romany people or Gypsies. There are Gypsies all over the world. And many of them are still traveling with no fixed homes. There are about 8 million of them, including 3 million in Eastern Europe. Gypsies sometimes have a hard time in the countries where they travel, because they are different. People may be afraid of them, look down on them or think that they are criminals. The Nazis treated the Gypsies cruelly, like the Jews. And nobody knows how many of them died in Hitler’s death camps. Gypsies have their own language, Romany. They like music and dancing, and they often work in fairs and traveling shows. Travelling is very important to them and many Gypsies are unhappy if they have to stay in one place. Because of this, it is difficult for Gypsies children to go to school. And Gypsies are often unable to read and write. In some places, the education authorities try to arrange special travelling schools for Gypsy children so that they can get the same education as other children.
Questions 1 to 3 are based on the passage you have just heard.
1. Why did the ancestors of Gypsies leave their home?
2. What is the attitude of some people towards Gypsies?
3. What measure has been taken to help Gypsy children?
