12.A.Lack of stone images also reflects religious belief.
B.Art is a good means to know about people's faith.
C.Artists express their feelings and opinions in their works.
D.People know more about our culture through learning art history.
E.Art is by all means closely connected with history.
F.Art history provides information of different places and people.
(71)D
A study of art history might be a good way to learn more about a culture than is possible to learn in general history classes.Most typical history courses concentrate on politics,economics,and war.But art history focuses on much more than this because art reflects not only the political values of a people,but also religious beliefs,emotions,and psychology.
(72)F
In addition,information about the daily activities of our ancestors-or of people very different from our own-can be provided by art.In short,art expresses the essential qualities of a time and a place,and a study of it clearly offer us a deeper understanding than can be found in most history books.
(73)C
In history books,objective information about the political life of a country is presented; that is,facts about politics are given,but opinions are not expressed.Art,on the other hand,is subjective:it reflects emotions and opinions.The great Spanish painter Francisco Goya was perhaps the first truly"political"artist.In his well-known painting The Third of May 1808,he criticized the Spanish government for its misuse of power over people.Over a hundred years later,symbolic images were used in Pablo Picasso's Guernica to express the horror of war.Meanwhile,on another continent,the powerful paintings of Diego Rivera,Jose Clemente Orozco,and David Alfaro Siqueiros-as well as the works of Alfredo Ramos Martines-depicted (show or represent them in a work of art) these Mexican artists'deep anger and sadness about social problems.
(74)B
In the same way,art can reflect a culture's religious beliefs.For hundreds of years in Europe,religious art was almost the only type of art that existed.Churches and other religious buildings were filled with paintings that depicted people and stories from the Bible.Although most people couldn't read,they could still understand biblical stories in the pictures on church walls.
(75)A
By contrast,one of the main characteristics of art in the Middle East was (and still is) its absence of human and animal images.This reflects the Islamic belief that statues are unholy.Something else can be more religiously symbolic in history.
9.Although many Chinese students say that their knowledge of English grammar is good,most would admit that their spoken English is poor.Whenever I speak to Chinese students,they always say,"My spoken English is poor."(36)EI would like to suggest that there may be some reasons for their problems with spoken English.
First,they fail to find suitable words to express themselves due to a limited vocabulary.(37)C However,you can speak with a limited vocabulary if your attitude is positive.Others will follow you as long as you use the words that you know.
(38)F  Sometimes they make mistakes when they are speaking because they are shy and nervous.Yet students should remember that their goal in speaking should be fluency not accuracy.You want to get your message across,to talk to someone in English,as quickly and well as you can,even though sometimes you may use a wrong word or tense,but it doesn't matter.(39)A
The third reason is that not enough attention is paid to listening.You have one mouth but two ears!All that hearing is necessary for you to start speaking.
Fourth,most Chinese students are reactive(被动反应的) rather than proactive(积极行动的) language learners.Instead of actively seeking out opportunities to improve their spoken English they passively wait for speaking opportunities to come to them and wonder why their English always remains poor.(40)D
A.The person you are speaking to will understand you and make allowances for mistakes he hears.
B.They may try to avoid making similar mistakes next time.
C.Obviously the better way is to expand their vocabulary.
D.If you have proactive outlook(观点),then you will see English opportunities
wherever you go.
E.However,their spoken English does not have to remain poor
F.Second,they are afraid of making mistakes.
G.The second reason lies in the unwillingness of using what has just been learned.
16.Ways to Sleep Smarter
Studies show that poor sleep influences people to make good decisions,concentrate on tasks or even manage a friendly mood at work.(36)EToday we've got our top favorite sleep tips and facts.
Set a regular bedtime
(37)DChoose a time when you normally feel tired.Try not to break this routine(惯例) on weekends when you will probably stay up late.If you want to change your bedtime,make the change gradually,such as 15 minutes earlier or later each day.
Eat the right food
Some foods are more helpful to a better night's sleep than others.(38)FOthers like bananas,potatoes,and whole-wheat bread are also helpful.
(39)BExercising provides lots of good health benefits.A good night's sleep is one of them.But make sure you exercise in the morning of afternoon.,The National Sleep Foundation reports that exercise in the morning or afternoon can help deepen sleep and cut the time it takes for you to fall into sleep.However,those who worked out in the evening hours saw little or no improvement in their sleep.
Reduce screen time before bed 
 (40)GA recent study shows that people who use electronic media just before bedtime report lower quality sleep even when they get as much sleep as those who don't.
A.Avoid the alarm clock
B.Exercise to improve sleep
C.Try to solve problems in your sleep.
D.Go to bed at the same time every night.
E.There are lots of ways to increase the quality of your sleep.
F.Everybody knows that warm milk helps people sleep better.

6.Annoying Mobile Phone Users
What really annoys me most about modern life is the way some people use their mobile phones.(36)GHowever,there are some people out there who just don't care about other people's feeling when they use a phone.These mobile phone users make life painful for the rest of us.Let's divide these users into groups.
The first group are those people who shout on the phone,especially in enclosed places like trains or lifts.(37)CIt isn't necessary.
(38)B Some ringtones are truly unpleasant---a loud,electronic version of Beethoven with a hip hop beat,for example.This is especially annoying in the cinema.
The third group of people who annoy me are those who have to walk around while they speak.(39)F.
Finally,the worst group are people who take a phone call while you are in a conversation with them.This is extremely rude in my opinion.
I would like to end with a message to all the above mobile phone users:You think you look cool and important talking on your mobile all the time.(40)A

A.But believe me----you don't!
B.Next are those with annoying ringtones.
C.I don't know why they have to talk so loudly.
D.This group of people keep talking on the phone.
E.I have no idea where they get the noisy ringtones
F.They stand in the way just when you want to get past.
G.The mobile phone is an important part of life for most of us.
13.How  To  Break  5  Bad  Financial   Habits
Everyone has a bad financial habit.We live in a country that spends billions on advertising to make us want to make purchases;  (36)G.Remember:even though the habits are hard to break and require great effort,there is payoff.
1.Pay bills when you receive them.Think of all the stress and anxiety that you experience when you put off paying your bills.When you receive the email notice or open the bill in the mail,take care of it.It will only take five minutes,and you won't be flooded with bills at the last minute.
2.(37)E.You must have had a hard time controlling the amount of purchases you are making.Minimize this urge by using your ATM card once a week to withdraw the amount of money for the week.Keep your cards at home,and even put your credit cards in a hard to reach place in your closet to keep you from using them.
3.Buy only what you really need.Most of us take shopping trips to buy items we really don't really need.Some claim shopping eases their tension,gets their mind off other things,or gives them much happiness.(38)A.Try to replace shopping with some hobbies like riding your bike or taking a walk with friends.
4.Track your expenses.Sometimes restaurants and businesses will charge you the wrong amount,but you won't have the receipt to back up your claim.Other times,you might have inadequate funds for the check you just wrote.Keep your receipts,and spend a few minutes every night to double check your charges,and know the current balance of your bank account.(39)C.
5.Check your credit score annually.(40)F.If you do notice something wrong,you can send in correction letters,so your applications for credit cards,car loans,or a mortgage(房屋贷款) are approved.

A.Take the time to figure out what makes you buy unnecessary items.
B.Change how you spend your money.
C.It beats getting overcharged or having to pay an overdraft(透支) fee.
D.So if you're the reason your money never seems to stick around,here are some strategies to help break five bad financial habits.
E.Use cash and not your card.
F.Get in the habit of checking your credit score to make sure there are no errors or inaccuracies.
G.However,if you are looking to make change and break your bad financial habits,use these tips.
10.Your house may have an effect on your weight.It is said that the way you design your home could play a part in whether you put on weight or not.1(36)GHere are some ways to turn your home into part of your diet plan.
(37)EDark environments are more likely to encourage overeating,for people are often less self-conscious(难为情)when they're in poorly lit places---and so more likely to eat lots of food.If your home doesn't have enough window light,get more lamps and fill the place with light.
(38)AResearch suggests warm colors help us eat more.In one study,people who ate meals in a yellow or red room consumed 33 percent more than those in a blue room.Warm colors like yellow make food appear more appetizing,while cold colors make us feel less hungry.So when it's time to repaint,go blue.
(39)CPeople who eat slowly usually use about 70 fewer calories(卡路里)per meal than those who rush through their meals.Try to make dinner last at least 30 minutes.And while you're at it,actually sit down to eat.If you need some help slowing down,turn on relaxing music.It makes you less likely to rush through a meal.
(40)BBig bowls and plates can easily make us fat.We eat about 22 percent more when using a 12-inch plate instead of a 10-inch plate.When we choose a large spoon over a smaller one,total intake(摄入)jumps by 14 percent.And we'll pour about 30 percent more liquid into a short,wide glass than a tall,skinny glass.
 
A.Mind the colors.
B.Downsize the dishes.
C.Don't forget the clock---or the radio.
D.Get more food full of energy and fiber.
E Open the curtains and turn up the lights.
F.Having meals in your own house is good for your health.
G.You can make your house work for you instead of against you.
11.Having reached the highest point of our route according to plan,we discovered something the map had not told us.It was impossible to climb down into the Kingo valley.The river lay deep between mountain sides that were almost vertical(垂直).We couldn't find any animal tracks,which usually show the best way across country,and the slopes were covered so thickly with bushes that we could not see the nature of the ground.We had somehow to break through to the river which would give us our direction out of the mountains into the inhabited lowlands.
Our guide cut a narrow path through the bushes with his long knife and we followed in single file.Progress was slow.Then,when we thought we had really reached the river,we found ourselves instead on the edge of a cliff with a straight drop of 1,000feet to the water below.We climbed back up the slope and began to look for another way down.We climbed slipped,sweated and scratched our hands to pieces and finally arrived at the river.Happily we came downhill along its bank without having to cut our way.However,after a few miles the river entered a steep-sided gap between rocks and suddenly dropped thirty-five feet over a waterfall.There was no path alongside it and no way round it.
Then one of the guides saw a way of overcoming the difficulty.There was a fallen tree lying upside down over the waterfall with its leafy top resting on the opposite bank below the falls.Without hesitation he climbed down the slippery trunk to show us how easy it was.Having got to the fork of the tree,he moved hand over hand along a branch for four or five feet with his legs hanging in space,then he dropped onto the flat bank the other side,throwing his arms in the air like a footballer who has scored goal,and cheerfully waving us on.

28.Having reached the highest point on their route,the travelers expected to be able toD.
A.track animals to the river
B.put away the maps they had been using
C.come near to the river from a different direction
D.get down to the river without much difficulty.
29.The travelers wanted to get to the river becauseC.
A.it would lead them to the waterfall
B.it would show them which way to go
C.it was the only possible way out of the mountains
D.it was a quicker way than going over the mountains
30.One reason why the travelers took so long to get to the river was thatB.
A.it was too hot to move quickly
B.there was no proper path
C.they all tried to go different ways
D.they could not follow the animal tracks
31.To get past the waterfall the guide had toA.
A.use a fallen tree as a kind of bridge     
B.cross the river above the waterfall
C.slide down a steep river bank          
D.swing across the river from a high branch.
