　　Scientists around the world have been studying the warming of waters in the Pacific Ocean known as El Nino. The appearance of El Nino is known to affect the weather around the world. Scientists still do not completely understand it. Yet they now find they can use it to tell about the future in different areas of the world.

　　One example is the work of two scientists at Columbia University in New York, Mark Cane and Gordon Eshel. A scientist of Zimbabwe, Roger Buckland worked with them. They have found that when El Nino appears, Zimbabwe has little or no rain. This means corn crops in Zimbabwe are poor. The last El Nino was in 1991 to 1993.That was when southeastern Africa suffered a serious lack of rain.

　　The scientists wrote about their recent work in the publication Nature. Their computer program can tell when an El Nino will develop up to a year before it does. They suggest that this could provide an effective early warning system for southern Africa, and could prevent many people from starving.

　　1.El Nino is known as ______ .

　　A.the changing of the weather in southern Africa

　　B.the warming of waters in the Pacific Ocean

　　C.the weather which brings drought(旱灾)to Africa

　　4.Which of the following is not true according to the article? A.The computer is used in this research work.

　　B.Scientists know when an El Nino appears by means of computer program. C.The scientists published their results of the research work.

　　Perhaps the most famous theory, the study of body movement, was suggested by Professor Ray Birdwhistell. He believes that physical appearance is often culturally(文化的)programmed. In other words, we learn our looks ---- we are not born with them. A baby has generally unformed face features(特征). A baby, according to Bird whistle, learns where to set the eyebrows(眉毛)by looking at those around ---- family and friends. This helps explain why the people of some areas of the United States look so much alike, New Englanders or Southerners have certain common face features that cannot be explained by genetics(遗传学). The exact shape of the mouth is not set at birth, it is learned after. In fact, the final mouth shape is not formed until well after new teeth are set. For many, this can be well into grown-ups. A husband and wife together for a long time often come to look somewhat alike. We learn our looks from those around us. This is perhaps why in a single country there are areas where people smile more than those in other areas. In the United States, for example, the South is the part of the country where the people smile most frequently. In New England they smile less, and in the western part of New York State still less. Many Southerners find cities such as New York cold and unfriendly, partly because people on Madison Avenue smile less than people on Peachtree Street in Atlanta, Georgi A.People in largely populated areas also smile and greet each other in public less than do people in small towns.

　　1.Ray Bird whistle believes physical appearance

　　A.has little to do with culture.

　　B.has much to do with culture. C.is ever changing.

　　D.is different from place to place

　　2.According to the passage, the final mouth shape is formed

　　A.before birth.

　　B.as soon as one's teeth are newly set.

　　C.sometime after new teeth are set.

　　D.around 15 years old.

　　3.Ray Bird whistle can tell what area of the United States a person is from by

　　A.how much he or she smiles.

　　B.how he or she raises his or her eyebrows.

　　C.what he or she likes best.

　　D.the way he or she talks.

　　4.People who live ______ are more friendly

　　A.in largely populated areas

　　B.in New York city

　　C.in the country

　　D.in the North

　　5.This passage might have been taken out of a book dealing with

　　A.physics B.chemistry

　　C.biology　D.none of the above

　　答案：BBACD

　　Over two thousand years ago Rome(罗马)was the center of a huge empire. The Romans needed a way to move their large armies quickly so that they could protect their huge country. They needed land trade routes, so they joined all parts of their empire by a net-work of roads(公路网).

　　Beginning in 300 B.C., the Romans built roads in Europe, Asia and North Africa. By 200A.D., they had built 50, 000 miles of almost straight roads.

　　To build their roads, the Romans moved away all soft soil. They dug until they reached hard ground. Then they added layers(层)of stone and other things. The most important roads were paved(铺设)with large flat(平)stones. Main Roman roads were sometimes as wide as ours today.

　　To build their roads, the Romans sometimes had to dig tunnels through mountains. But they didn't have any machines to help them. So they heated the rock with fire and then threw cold water over it. When the rock cracked(裂), they dug it out. Roman soldiers and slaves built the roads with their hands and simple tools, but the roads were so well built that they were used for hundreds of years.

　　B.Roman tools in building a wide straight road

　　C.the Romans‘ roads built two thousand years ago

　　D.the reason why the Romans had to build their roads

　　4.Why did the Romans build so many roads at that time? It was because ______ .

　　B.they dared not sail in the ocean and the roads were their only choice
