【题目】 The first men and women came to Britain over two and a half million years ago. 1 But the British Isles only became islands separated from the rest of Europe about 8, 500 years ago, when melting ice formed the English Channel!

3,000 years after Britain became an island, new tribes who came by boat from the mainland introduced farming.2Many of these man-made hills can still be seen.

Later on, people learned to build stone monuments. The most amazing is Stonehenge, a circle of huge stones begun about 4,500 years ago. Stonehenge is the world's most famous prehistoric monument. 3

3,000 years ago the climate in Britain became colder and wetter than before. 4 A bit later iron started to be used for tools and weapons instead of bronze. Knowledge of ironworking may have been brought by the Celts, a new wave of immigrants who started to arrive from southern Europe in about 500 BC.

What we know about the first people in Britain has been worked out by archaeologists from the remains they left behind them. Pytheas, a Greek, was the first person who could read and write to come to Britain. His visit was in about 330 BC, over 2, 000 years after Stonehenge was begun. Unfortunately, what Pytheas wrote has been lost, so we don't have any written record of Britain until the Romans came. 5

A. That was almost 300 years after he did!

B. As a result, people had to move down from high ground.

C. Because of the climate change, much of the ice has melted.

D. Many archaeologists believe that Britain was once covered by ice.

E. These tribes built earthworks for protection and as tombs for their dead bodies.

F. They were hunters and gatherers of food, who used stone tools and weapons.

G. We don't know what it was used for, though many different suggestions have been made.

【题目】阅读下面短文,根据其内容写一篇60词左右的内容概要。

Getting up early has been seen as a good habit since ancient times. Many years ago, people thought that if we went to bed early and got up early, we would be energetic (精力充沛的) the whole day. So, getting up early is of great importance to us all.

In fact, morning is the best time of a day. In the morning, the air is the freshest and people are usually in the best condition. Many of us may have the experiences that we memorize some things more quickly and correctly in the morning than any other time of the day. And it is certain that we find it easier to understand what we learn. If we get up early and do some morning exercises or only take a short walk in the morning, without doubt we can build up our bodies and become much healthier. Also we will have enough time to make a plan and get ready for our work or study of the day if we get up early. For example, if everyone in the family gets up early, the wife will have enough time to prepare the breakfast for the whole family. Children will have enough time to catch the school bus, and the husband will never forget to change his dirty shirt. Everything is in order. However, if we get up late, we’ll probably have to do everything in a hurry.

Getting up early is such a good habit that we should try our best to keep it. If we stick to (坚持) getting up early every day, we will certainly benefit a lot from it.

【题目】“Anywhere they play in Bangkok, I’ll be there,” said Warin Nithihiranyakul, 73, a dedicated fan of the Sai Yong Hong Chinese Opera troupe(剧团)for more than 10 years. While waiting for his friends to arrive, he helps out by starting to set up plastic red chairs for the audience to watch the evening’s performance in an area just south of Bangkok’s Chinatown. A devotee of 11 years, Wandee Tengyodwanich, 62, says that Sai Yong Hong is the best Chinese opera in Thailand because it invests in very splendid costumes. She and her friends go to see the group a couple of times a year. They eat and catch up as they recall the first time they saw Chinese opera as children.

They are part of a shrinking community of people that has formed around Chinese opera in Thailand. They are preserving a cornerstone of culture and heritage(遗产)dating to the seventh-century Tang Dynasty, making it one of the oldest dramatic art forms in the world. Like so much of Chinese opera throughout the world, the performances are a product of a large Chinese migration. Sai Yong Hong is one of about 20 Chinese opera troupes in Thailand. The audience consists mostly of older Thai-Chinese adults, some of whom take their grandchildren to connect with a cultural memory that has been passed down for generations.

Chinese migration to Thailand can be traced to the 13th century. Today about 14 percent of the population is ethnically(人种上)Chinese, making Thailand the home of one of the world’s largest Chinese communities outside China.

For many of the actors, the stage is home. Women could not even touch the shrine(神龛), only men were allowed; now the whole industry has changed. As the community ages and audiences decrease, there is a fear that the art will die out. Performers face uncertain futures. Mr. Tatchai, who is Chinese and Thai, has been in the industry since he was 7. He has seen the changes as well, and he said he thought the industry would continue to get smaller but would not go away. “As long as Chinese shrines exist and people continue praying,” he said, “the Chinese opera will be here.”

1What impressed Wandee most on Sai Yong Hong?

A. Its comfortable service. B. Its long history.

C. Its wonderful costumes. D. Its enormous dedicated fans.

2It can be inferred that Chinese overseas usually .

A. basically forget their native cultures

B. try to bring oversea culture back to hometown

C. forbid their offspring to see Chinese opera

D. spread traditional dramatic arts globally

3What’s Mr. Tatchai’s attitude on the future of the Chinese opera?

A. Pessimistic. B. Doubtful. C. Optimistic. D. Neutral.
