Linguists(语言学家)believe that the languages of about one-third of the human race all developed from one Indo-European language.But who were the speakers of this ancient(古代的)language?Linguistic detective work offers some clues(线索).It is sometimes said that you can deduce a people's history from the words they use.Study of some fifty ancient vocabularies has led to a reconstruction of the lifestyle of the first Indo-Europeans,a vanished(消失的)people.From the words they used,it seems likely that they lived a half-settled,half-nomadic(半游牧的) existence.They had horses,oxen,and sheep.They plowed,planted,worked leather,and wove wool.They worshipped gods who are clear ancestors(祖先)of Indian,Mediterranean,and Celtic deities(凯尔特诸神).However,exactly who the original Indo-Europeans were and when they lived remains a hotly debated mystery.According to an early theory,they lived in Mesopotamia,but this idea was explodedby nineteenth-century archaeology(考古学).Today,some argue for the Krugan culture of the Russian steppes(干草原),others for the farming culture of the Danube valley.The most widely accepted theory locates the Indo-Europeans in a cold,northern climate where common words for snow and wolf were important.None of these prehistoric languages had a word for the sea.From this,and from our knowledge of nature,it is clear that the Indo-Europeans must have lived somewhere in northern central Europe.
26.What would be a good title for this passage?
A.In Search of Ancient Indo-Europeans.
B.The M istakes of Early Archaeologists.
C.Prehistoric Lifestyles in Europe.
D.Prehistoric Vocabularies.
27.According to the author,what has helped us understand the lifestyle of the original Indo-Europeans?
A.Studying their writings.B.Studying prehistoric languages.
C.Studying their gods.    D.Studying ancient climate data.
28.None of the prehistoric languages studied had a word for sea.According to the passage,what kind of information about the Indo-Europeans does this provide?
A.Inform ation about where they lived.
B.Inform ation about how they traveled.
C.Inform ation about when they lived.
D.Inform ation about what gods they worshipped.
29.What does the underlined word“exploded”mean?
A.Developed. B.Strengthened. C.Explained. D.Disproved.
30.According to the passage,what was one thing that nineteenth-century archaeology showed?
A.That the Krugan culture began in Mesopotam ia.
B.That the first Indo-Europeans did not live in Mesopotamia.
C.That the earliest Indo-Europeans lived in Mesopotamia.
D.That there was a disastrous explosion in ancient Mesopotamia.
B)阅读下列短文,然后回答问题或完成句子。(答案写在答题纸上)

It was not yet eleven o'clock when a boat crossed the river with a single passenger who had got his transportation(运输)at that unusual hour by promising extra money.While the youth stood on the landing-place searching in his pockets for money,the ferryman(渡船主) lifted a lantern,with the help of which,together with the newly-risenmoon,he took a very careful look at the stranger.He was a young man of about eighteen years,evidently country bred,and now,as it seemed,on his first visit to town.He was wearing a rough gray coat, which was in good shape,but which had seen many winters before this one.The clothes under his coat were well constructed of leather,and fitted tightly to a pair of muscular(肌肉发达的)legs;his stockings of blue yarn must have been the work of a mother or sister,and on his head was a three-cornered hat,which in its better days had perhaps sheltered the grayer head of the lad's father.In his left hand was a walking stick,and his equipm ent was completed by a leather bag not so abundantly stocked as to inconvenience the strong shoulders on which it hung.Brown,curly hair,well-shaped features,bright,cheerful eyes were nature's gifts,and worth all that art could have done for his adornment(装饰).The youth,whose name was Robin,paid the boatman,and then walked forward into the town with a light step,as if he had not already traveled more than thirty m iles that day.As he walked, he surveyed(观察)his urroundings as eagerly as if he were entering London or Madrid, instead of the little metropolis of a New England colony.
31.What time of year was it in this story?
32.At what time of day did Robin cross the river?
33.The boatman was willing to take Robin across the river because______.
34.The stockings that Robin wore were obviously______.

Fifty volunteers(志愿者)were alphabetically divided into two equal groups,Group A to take part in a seven-week exercise program ,and Group B to avoid deliberate exercise of any sort during those 7 weeks.On the day before the exercise program began,all 50 men took part in a step-test.This consisted of stepping up and down on a 16-inch bench at 30 steps per m nute for 5 minutes.One minute after completion of the step-test,the pulse rate of each subject was taken and recorded.This served as the pre test for the experiment.For the next 7 weeks,subjects in the experimental group(Group A)rode an Exercycle(a motor-driven bicycle-type exercise machine)for 15 minutes each day.The exercise schedule(日程表)called for riders to ride a relaxed way during the first day's ride,merely holding on to the handle bars and foot pedals(脚踏板)as the machine moved.Then,for the next 3 days,they rode a relaxed way for 50 seconds of each minute,and pushed,pulled,and pedaled actively for 10 seconds of each minute.The ratio(比率)of active riding was ncreased every few days,so that by the third week it was half of each minute,and by the seventh week the riders were performing 15 solid minutes of active riding.
At the end of the seven weeks,the step-test was again given to both groups of subjects,and their pulses taken.The post-exercise pulse rates of subjects in the experimental group were found to have decreased an average of 30 heart beats per minute,with the lowest decrease 28 and the highest decrease 46.The pulse rates of subjects in the control group remained the same or changed by no more than 4 beats,with an average difference between the beginning and final tests of zero.
44.How many people were in each group?
45.The step-test was given ______.
46.When were pulse rates taken?
47.The exercise schedule was planned so that the amount of active riding ______.
48.What did Group A do in their program?
49.The post-exercise pulse rates of Group______were found on the average to have not changed.
50.This passage suggests that regular exercise can strengthen your ______.

In the second half of each year,many powerful storms are born in the tropical(热带的)Atlantic Ocean and Caribbean Sea.Of these,only about half(61)______dozen generate(产生)the strong,circling winds of 75 miles per hour or more that give them hurricane(飓风)status,and several usually make their way to the coast.There they cause millions(62)______dollars of damage,and bring death to large numbers of people.
The great storms(63)______hit the coast start as innocent circling disturbances hundreds—even thousands—of miles out to sea.As they travel aimlessly over water warmed by the summer(64)______,they are carried westward by the trade winds.When conditions(65)______just right,warm ,moist air flows in at the bottom of such a disturbance,moves upward through it and comes(66)______at the top.In the process,the moisture in this warm air produces rain,and with it the heat is converted(转变)to energy in the form of strong(67)______.As the heat increases,the young hurricane begins to swirl(打旋)in a counter-clockwise motion.
The average life of a hurricane is only about nine days,but it contains almost more power(68)______we can imagine.The energy in the heat released by a hurricane's rainfall in a single day would satisfy the entire electrical needs of the United States for more than six months.(69)______,not wind,is the main source of death and destruction(破坏)in a hurricane.A typical hurricane brings 6-to 12-inch downpours resulting in sudden floods.Worst of all is the powerful movement of the sea—the mountains of water moving toward the low-pressure hurricane center.The water level(70)______as much as 15 feet above normal as it moves toward shore.
