November 11, 1918 was the day when the First World War was over. Weary(疲劳的)veterans came home. They left many dead companions behind and brought home a lifetime of bloody memories. The war had been one long horror of death and【B1】______. In the months that followed, soldiers and their families began the process of redefining their lives after the【B2】______experience of war. Many servicemen returned to find that their jobs had been taken by others. Besides that, the economic【B3】______in America had shifted. While the soldiers were away, sacrificing years of their lives, wages had【B4】______. Soldiers pay and unemployment seemed a【B5】______reward for all the veterans had given. Disillusioned(理想破灭的)veterans began to press the government for compensation. In 1924, Congress【B6】______the Soldiers Bonus Act. The veterans received certificates that would be changed into a cash value of about $ 1,000 each in 1935. It seemed a【B7】______consolation (带来安慰的事物), but perhaps better than nothing. Then came 1929 and the beginning of the Great Depression. The sudden economic crisis shocked everyone, especially the disabled and widows and children of soldiers killed in Europe. Many who had given everything for America on the battlefields of the Great War were now trying【B8】______to keep their families from starving. Naturally, veterans【B9】______the bonus promised by the government and they needed the bonus now. What good would a 1935 cash settlement be to a man who had died of starvation ten years earlier? But Congress and President,【B10】______a nations financial crisis, refused the servicemens request.

C Greek soldiers sent messages by turning their shields(盾)toward the sun. The flashes reflected light could be seen several miles away. The enemy did not know what the flashes meant, but other Greek soldiers could understand the messages.

Roman soldiers in some places built long rows of signal towers. When they had a message to send, the soldiers shouted it from tower to tower. If there were enough towers and enough soldiers with loud voices, important news could be sent quickly over distance.

In Africa, people learned to send messages by beating on a series of large drums(鼓). Each drum was kept within hearing distance of the next one. The drum beats were sent out in a special way that all the drummers understood. Though the messages were simple, they could be sent at great speed for hundreds of miles.

In the eighteenth century, a French engineer found a new way to send short messages. In this way, a person held a flag in each hand and the arms were moved to various positions representing different letters of the alphabet. It was like spelling out words with flags and arms.

Over a long period of time, people sent messages by all these different ways. However, not until the telephone was invented in America in the nineteenth century could people send speech sounds over a great distance in just a few seconds.

[A] fine weather

第6题

Most of the people who appear most often and most gloriously in the history books are grea
t conquerors and generals and soldiers, whereas the people who really helped civilization forward are often never mentioned at all. We do not know who first set a broken leg, or launched a seaworthy boat, or calculated the length of the year, or manured(施肥于) a field; but we know all about the killers and destroyers.

People think a great deal of them, so much that on all the highest pillars in the great cities of the world you will find the figure of a conqueror or a general or a soldier. And I think most people believe that the greatest countries are those that have beaten in battle the greatest number of other countries and ruled over them as conquerors. It is just possible they are, but they are not the most civilized. Animals fight; so do savages; hence to be good at fighting is to be good in the way in which animal or a savage is good, but it is not to be civilized. Even being good at getting other people to fight for you and telling them how to do it most efficiently-this, after all, is what conquerors and generals have done—is not being civilized. People fight to settle quarrels. Fighting means killing, and civilized peoples ought to be able to find some ways of settling their disputes other than by seeing which side can kill off the greater number of the other side, and then saying that that side which has killed most has won. And not only has it won, but, because it has won, it has been in the right. For that is what going to war means; it means saying that might is right.

That is what the story of mankind has on the whole been like. Even our own age has fought the two greatest wars in history, in which millions of people were killed or mutilated. And while today it is true that people do not fight and kill each other in the streets-while, that is to say, we have got to the stage of keeping the rules and behaving properly to each other in daily life—nations and countries have not learnt to do this yet, and still behave like savages.

The first sentence of the passage tells us that ______.

A.most history books were written by conquerors, generals and soldiers

B.those who really helped civilization forward is not mentioned in any history book

C.conquerors, generals and soldiers should not be mentioned in history books

D.history books tells us far more about conquerors and soldiers than about those who really helped civilization forward

In the seventeenth century, European soldiers who came across some Indian groups in the we
stern Great Lakes found that several native tribes were living in the area without a formal leadership system. They appeared to be "quite friendly with each other without a formal authority!"

Not only did the Indians appear to lack a formal system of authority, but they also deeply hated any efforts to control their actions. All members of the tribes knew what was required of them by lifelong familiarity with the tasks of the area. These tasks tended to be simple, since the Indian's rate of social change was slow. Thus, although subgroups such as soldiers had recognized leaders, no real authority was required. Rather than giving direct orders (which were considered rough), members of the tribes would arouse others to action by examples.

It would be difficult, if not impossible, to carry out such a system in our own society. Most of us have grown up under one authority or another for as long as we can remember. Our parents, our teachers, our bosses, our government all have the recognized right under certain conditions to tell us what to do. The authority is so much a part of our culture that it is hard for us to imagine a workable society without it. We have been used to relying on authority to get things done and would probably be uncomfortable with the Indian methods of examples on a large scale.

Of course, the major reason why the Indian system would not be suitable for us is that our society is too large. The number of tasks that various members of our society have to perform. often under tight time and resource limitations could not be treated by the Indian system. In modern societies, the formal authority system is necessary to achieve any social objectives.

Which of the following statements is correct according to the passage?

A.From 1710 to 1780, European soldiers came across some Indian groups in the western Great Lakes.

B.European soldiers were quite friendly to the Indian groups.

C.The Indian groups had no leaders.

D.The Indian groups were friendly to each other without a formal leadership system.

听力原文:Social insects live in integrated communities which in some ways are similar to h

听力原文: Social insects live in integrated communities which in some ways are similar to human communities. In both types of community there is division of labor. In insect societies, certain insects are responsible for reproduction; the workers collect food While the soldiers defend the colony. In the same way human groups such as farmers and shopkeepers have specialized functions in producing goods and providing services to the community.

Insect and human societies are also alike in that individual members of the community work together. White ant workers coordinate their efforts to build nests. Similarly, in human societies, engineers, architects, town planners and construction workers unite to build cities.

The nests of social insects are as complex as a man-made city. In some insect nests special accommodation is provided for the young and for food storage. Many nests also have devices for regulating the temperature. So insect nests are as functional as human houses.

It is not surprising, therefore, that many analogies have been made between social insects and human societies. It must not be forgotten, however, that insects' social behaviors are determined by innate instinctive mechanisms. Insects show no capacity for learning or for developing a social tradition based on learning.

(33)

A.They both live in communities.

B.They both have soldiers to defend their societies.

C.They both show great capacity for learning.

D.They both have a division of labor.

How Two Great Conflicts Helped to Change Europe Ninety years ago on a sunny morn

How Two Great Conflicts Helped to Change Europe

Ninety years ago on a sunny morning in Northern France, something happened that changed Britain and Europe for ever. At half past seven on the morning of July l,1916, whistles(哨子)blew and thousands of British soldiers left their positions to attack their German enemies. By the end of the day, 20,000 of them were dead, and another 30,000 wounded or missing. The Battle of the Somme, (51)it is called, lasted for six months. When it ended, 125,000 British soldiers were dead. They had gained five kilometers of ground.

This was one of a series of great battles during WWI. The attack on the Somme was staged to relieve (52)on the French, who were engaged in a great battle of their own at a place called Verdun. By the time the battle ended, over a million French and German troops had been killed.

About l7 million people were killed in WWI. There have been wars with greater numbers of dead. But there has never been one in (53)most of the dead were concentrated in such a small area. On the Somme battlefield, two men died for every meter of space.

Local farmers working in the land still (54)the bodies of those who died in that battle. The dead of all nations were buried in a series of giant graveyards along the line of the border (55)France and Belgium. Relatives and descendants(子孙)of those who died still visit these graveyards today. What the French call the “tourism of death” (56)an important contribution to the local economy.

It took a second great conflict before Europe was to turn (57)war itself. Twenty-eight years after the Somme baffle, a liberating army of British, American and Canadian troops took back (58)from another German invasion. More than 500,000 people were killed. New (59)were built.

Two great conflicts across two generations helped to change the European mind about war. Germany, once the most warlike country in Europe, is now probably more in (60)of peace than any other. One major cause of war in Europe was rivalry(竞争)between France and Germany. The European Union was specifically formed to end that (61).

According to US commentator William Pfaff, “Europeans are interested in a slow development of civilized and tolerant international relations, (62) on problems while avoiding catastrophes(灾难)along the way. They have themselves only recently (63)from the catastrophes of WWI and WWI l, when tens of millions of people were destroyed. They don’t want (64).”

The last British veteran of the Somme battle died in 2005, aged l08. And WWI is passing out of memory and into history. But for anyone who wants to understand how Europeans (65), it is still important to know a little about the terrible events Of July l,1916.
