These days, Americans worry most about an economic recovery that President Obama calls "painfully slow". But on Saturday millions will remember the day al-Qaida terrorists flew airplanes into the World Trade Center in New York and the Pentagon in Washington. Another hijacked plane crashed in a field in Pennsylvania when passengers rebelled. Close to three thousand people died that day. Next year will be a big anniversary, ten years since the day Americans call 9-11.

But this September eleventh comes at an uneasy time. A large number of Americans say they oppose plans to build an Islamic center near the World Trade Center site in New York. This week attention centered on a Christian minister(基督教事工) with a small following in the state of Florida.

Reverend Terry Jones said he would mark the 9-11 anniversary by burning copies of the Quran(可兰经). He said he wanted to send a message to Islamic extremists. He said, "We are not hateful toward Muslims. We are not aiming this at Muslims, we are aiming this at Sharia law(伊斯兰教教法)."

Political and religious leaders around the world had condemned him. The plan even led the State Department to warn American travelers to avoid places where protests(抗议) might take place.

President Obama said burning Qurans could endanger American troops and invite more extremism. Defense Secretary Robert Gates called Mr. Jones on Thursday to urge him to reconsider.

Administration officials called the idea of burning Qurans "un-American." But they also agreed that it would be within constitutional rights, like protesters who burn American flags. The Constitution guarantees free speech and bars the government from restricting the practice of religion.

According to this news article how many things made this September 11 uneasy? (No more than 1 word)

What did the State Department think would happen after Reverend revealed his plan? (No more than 4 words)

How did the government prevent the situation becoming worse? (No more than 9 words)

Why couldn’t the US government forbid Reverend to burn Qurans? (No more than 7 words)

Directions: Read the following passage. Answer the questions according to the information given in the passage and required words limit. Write your answers on your answer sheet.

Few places have as much ancient history and modern knowledge to offer to students as Egypt. In addition to being the site of many of the world’s greatest wonders, Egypt also hosts two major religious institutions. Al-Azhar University is one of the oldest Islamic institutions for higher studies. The head of Al-Azhar is traditionally regarded as the ruler of Sunni Muslims all over the world.

Al-Azhar University had long been known as the most archaic university in the world until 2004, when archaeologists unearthed the site of what was believed to be the first ever ivory tower in the world in the northern seaside city of Alexandria.

What the archaeological team found were 13 lecture halls that could accommodate up to 5,000 students each. These lecture halls are believed to be the University of Alexandria, home of famous Greek scholars like Archimedes and Euclid during the ancient city’s golden era.

This discovery shows that Egypt was a centre for education and learning in the early world civilizations. Its tradition of scholarship was evident even from the Pharaonic Age（法老时代）, which boasted engineering wonders such as the pyramids as well as the scientific wonder of mummies, all of which still exist tod ay.

During the Islamic Age, Egypt became the regional academic centre for Islamic study and Arabic language and literature. Her popularity with scholars from all over the world grew with the establishment of Al-Azhar University in Cairo, in 975.

Today, it remains a popular destination for international scholars, especially those from the Arab world, Africa, Asia and Europe, but like most modern Egyptian universities, Al-Azhar has been equipped with the latest technologies to cope with new demands from the modern world, and is an ideal place for students from all over the world.

Find in the passage a word closest in meaning to the underlined word “ archaic” .(one word)

Why has Al-Azhar been equipped with the latest technologies?(no more than 9 word)

What is the passage mainly about ?(no more than 6 word)

What is the writer’s purpose of writing this passage?(no more than 9 word)

Egyptian researchers believe they have recognized the mummy（木乃伊）of Hatshepsut, the most famous queen to rule ancient Egypt, found in an average tomb in Egypt’s Valley of the Kings.

Researchers said the mummy was one of two females found in 1903 in a small tomb believed to be that of Hatshepsut’s nurse, Sitre In. In fact, there has been the idea over the years that one of the mummies may be that of the queen, who ruled from between 1503 and 1482 BC at the height of ancient Egypt’s power.

The decisive truth-telling fact was a tooth in a wooden box marked with the queen’s name, Hawass said. The box was found in 1881 in a hiding place of royal mummies collected and hidden away at the Deir al-Bahari temple about 1,000 metres away from the tomb.

Checking all the mummies which might be Hatshepsut’s, Yehya Zakariya, a medicine professor, found that the tooth was a perfect fit in a hole in the upper jaw of one of the two females, a fat woman believed to have suffered from cancer and diabetes. “The recognition of the tooth with the jaw can show this is Hatshepsut,” Hawass said. “A tooth is like a fingerprint.”

Another researcher Elizabeth Thomas speculated many years ago that one of the mummies was Hatshepsut’s because how the right arm was put over the woman’s chest suggested royalty .

It was guessed that the mummy might have been hidden in the tomb for safekeeping because her stepson and successor （继任者）, Tuthmosis III, tried to wipe out her memory. Hatshepsut stole the power from her young stepson. After her death, records were destroyed and her body was dug out.

41. According to the passage, Hatshepsut ______.

A. was the only queen ever ruling Egypt B. died of cancer and diabetes

C. lived between 1503 and 1482 BC D. was buried together with her nurse

42. When they found the box, people knew ______.

A. where Hatshepsut was buried B. why Hatshepsut’s body was lost

C. the tooth was Hatshepsut’s D. Hatshepsut’s tomb was average

43. What is the key to the recognition of Hatshepsut’s mummy?

A. The tooth. B. The fingerprint.

C. Hatshepsut’s name. D. Sitre In, her nurse.

44. Which of the following can best replace the underlined word “speculated” in Paragraph 5?

A. admitted B. guessed C. proved D. doubted

45. It can be inferred from the passage that ______.

A. Yehya recognized the fat woman as Hatshepsut.

B. Elizabeth found Hatshepsut’s mummy first.

C. Hatshepsut must had been killed by Tuthmosis III.

D. Hatshepsut’s death may had been a mystery.
