The making of glass is a very old industry—at least 4,500 years old. Glass has many extrao

rdinary qualities and it is often being used in new ways.

One of the most interesting new uses for glass is in telephone communication. Scientists have developed glass fibres as thin as human hair which are designed to carry light signals. When the light reaches the other end, it is first changed into electrical signals which are in turn changed into sound messages.

Called lightwave communication, the new system was used successfully in an experiment in Chicago in 1977. During the experiment, two glass fibres were able to carry 672 conversations at the same time. The lightwave cable, containing 144 glass fibres, is able to carry 50,000 conversations at the same time.

The lightwave communication system has two important advantages. First, the glass fibre cables are smaller and weigh less than copper cables. Second, they cost less.

Perhaps it can be said that telephone communication has entered the age of light.

According to the passage, people started to make glass ______.

A．4,500 years ago

B．nearly 4,500 years ago

C．less than 4,500 years ago

D．no less than 4,500 years ago

听力原文： We do not know when man first began to use salt, but we do know that it has been

used in many different ways throughout history. Historical evidence shows, for example, that people who lived over 3,000 years ago ate salted fish. Thousands of years ago in Egypt, salt was used to keep the dead from decaying. Stealing salt was considered a major crime during some periods of history. In the 18th century, for instance, if a person was caught stealing salt, he would be put in jail. History records that about ten thousand people were put in jail during that century for stealing salt. About 150 years before in the year 1553, taking more than one's share of salt, was punishable as a crime. The offender's ear was cut off!

Salt was an important item on the table of a king. It was traditionally placed in front of the king when he sat down for eat. Important guests at the king's table were seated near the salt. Less important guests were given seats farther away from it.

How was salt used in Egypt thousands of years ago？

A．To keep fish alive.

B．To punish criminals.

C．To preserve dead bodies.

D．To help heal wounds.

The Ice AgeTwenty thousand years ago, the earth was held in control by relentlessly （不宽

The Ice Age

Twenty thousand years ago, the earth was held in control by relentlessly (不宽容地) probing fingers of ice that drew power from frigid strongholds in the north and crept southwestward to bury forests, fields, and mountains. Landscapes that were violated by the slowly moving glaciers(冰川 )would carry the scars of this advance far into the future. Temperatures dropped deeply, and land surfaces in many parts of the world were depressed by the unrelenting weight of the thrusting ice. At the same time, so much was drawn from the oceans to form. these huge glaciers that sea levels around the world fell by three hundred and fifty feet, and large areas of the continental shelf became dry land.

This period of the Earth's history had come to be called the Ice Age. In all, about eleven million square miles of land were covered with ice. The Ice Age terminated about fourteen thousand years ago when the ice sheets began to retreat. It took about seven thousand years for the ice to retreat to its present level.

There were no human beings on the earth during the Ice Age.

A．Right

B．Wrong

C．Not mentioned
