Well that’s what’s happening in my community. There’s a park that some people want to turn into a golf course. Let me tell you why I think it’s a bad idea. First, a park is meant to be for the whole community. Not everyone likes golf, so not everyone will get to use the park. This isn’t fair. A community park should have open spaces for everyone to use. Second, to make way for the golf course, lots of playground equipment will have to be moved or knocked down, which is a waste of time and money. It’s also a waste of perfectly good equipment. The swings, for example, will probably end up as litter. Third, what about giving young people something to do? Not all kids are crazy about golf. At the moment, the park has a skating place and a playground. These attract lots of kids from the community. It you turn the park into a golf course, these kids won’t have anywhere to go and they won’t have anything to do. This means that they will stay at home and turn on a video game rather than get some exercise. It also means that they might be out on the street causing trouble. Wouldn’t it be better to give them something to do at the park? Finally, golf is expensive. Building a golf course and maintaining it cost a lot of money. Who is going to pay to maintain the golf course? What about those people who can’t afford to join a golf course? That means the golf course will only be available to people with lots of money. Turning our park into a golf course is a bad idea. I suggest we have a community meeting before plans go any further.11. Some people want to change the park into ___________.A. a golf clubB. a golf courseC. a parking placeD. a skating place12. According to Paragraph 4, having nowhere to go will make some children___________.A. go to get some exerciseB. fall in love with golfC. play videos games at homeD. go to the street and make friends13. What can we know from this passage?A. Plenty of playground equipment will be broken down.B. It will cost a lot of money if people want to build and maintain a golf course.C. Turning the park into a golf course will make kids get some exercise instead of playing video games.D. Old people in the community might be out on the street causing trouble if a park is tuned into a golf course.14. Which of the following shows the structure of the passage? (P=Paragraph)A. B. C. D. 15. What is the writer’s purpose in writing this passage?A. To help carry out further plans.B. To make the park more beautiful.C. To encourage children to go skating.D. To stop the golf course from being built.BOn March 20, the Sanxingdui Ruins in Guanghan, Sichuan drew the world’s attention. Chinese archaeologists(考古学家) announced that they have found more than 500 cultural relics(遗址) in six pits(坑) at the site, which dates back over 3,200 years. The relics include bronzeware(青铜器), gold and bronze masks, ivory, jade and textiles(纺织品).The Sanxingdui Ruins, which were first discovered in 1929, are believed to be the remains of the ancient Shu Kingdom. The kingdom was a center of civilization along the upper reaches of Yangtze River.In 1986, archaeologists discovered two pits that they believed were used for sacrificial(献祭的) ceremonies. At that time, over 1,000 artifacts were found, including bronzeware, face masks and “divine(神圣的) trees”-bronze sculptures of trees.The discovery of Sanxingdui raised an important question about the origins of Chinese civilization. The ancient Shu civilization that built Sanxingdui is believed to be one of the earliest examples of Chinese civilization. The site, along with the Liangzhu and Shijiahe sites along the Yangtze River, shows that the birthplace of Chinese civilization might not have been only along the Yellow River Basin(流域) in north China.The newly-discovered relics are similar to those found in 1986, as they also include divine trees and bronze masks. They further support the idea that the pits were used for sacrificial purposes.“These artifacts show that the Sanxingdui site had a close connection with Central China, but it also marks an original ancient civilization(in Sichuan) with strong creativity,” said Chen Xiandan, a member of the excavation(发掘) project.16. What do we know about the relics found at the Sanxingdui Ruins recently?A. They are made of gold.B. They were all found in the same pit.C. They were created about 3,200 years ago.D. They were used for sacrificial ceremonies in 1986.17. What does the word “artifacts” in Paragraph 3 refer to?A. The remains of a building.B. Ancient ceremonies.C. Historical objects.D. Bronze sculptures.18. Paragraph 4 shows that Chinese civilization ___________.A. started earlier than was believed beforeB. might have several different originsC. was centered along the Yangtze RiverD. developed from the ancient Shu civilization19. What do the newly-discovered relics suggest?A. Sanxingdui is more important than the sites in Central China.B. The Sanxingdui Ruins are part of the Liangzhu Ruins.C. Sanxingdui was built by the ancient Shu Kingdom.D. The ancient Shu civilization was creative.20. What is the best title for this passage?A. New Discovery of SanxingduiB. Chinese Cultural RelicsC. Ancient CivilizationD. Work of Chinese Archaeologists CPart of Earth's beauty comes from its oceans. Ocean scientists study the chemical make-up of the ocean weather patterns, the geography of the ocean floor, and many other areas. Their work is exciting, although sometimes dangerous. Using technology to do certain tasks helps. For example, robotic arms are used for very dangerous tasks. One basic part of ocean study is understanding waves and how they work. Wind is the great maker of waves. The waves we know are mostly produced by winds blowing over the sea. They are directly connected with the wind speed and the time that wind lasts. Sometimes ocean life can be seen in the wave. Living things seem to be staying within the wave, moving slowly inside it as if they were weightless. Besides the beauty of waves, scientists are interested in their technical ways. The diagram of waves shows how scientists examine waves. Waves are measured (测量) from the top (crest) to the bottom (trough). This allows scientists to find out the height of a wave. They also measure waves from crest to crest to determine (测定) the length of a wave. During serious storms, huge waves might cut a sea ship apart. Ships are at great risk of winding up as broken pieces after being hit by the force of a huge wave. By understanding the ocean, scientists can prevent this breakup of ships by predicting when the water will be too dangerous for people and their ships. The study of waves and the ocean also allows scientists to make sure how certain beaches were formed. By studying the oceans, a great deal can be learned about the surface we live on.21. Why are robotic arms used? Because ________.A. certain tasks are very dangerousB. the tasks are excitingC. the oceans are beautifulD. there are many studying areas22. What can we learn from the second paragraph?A. Waves can make wind.B. Most waves are produced by winds.C. Scientists make most waves.D. Waves have nothing to do with wind.23. What is the meaning of "the length of a wave" according to paragraph 3?A. The beauty of huge wavesB. The technical way to study the sea.C. The distance from crest to crest of a wave.D. The distance from the top to the bottom of a wave.24. Which of the following statements are right according to the passage?① Scientists can decide the weather patterns. ②We can't find living things in the waves. ③By studying the ocean, scientists can prevent the breakup of ships. ④The study of waves helps scientists know how certain beaches were formed.A. ①③B. ②④C. ③④D. ②③25. Where is the passage probably from?A. A diary entryB. A fairy tale.C. A travel guide.D. A science magazine.D第二节 补全语篇。以下是一篇短文，请阅读全文，并从下列的六个句子中选择五个还原到原文中，使原文的意思完整、连贯。（共5小题，每题1分）When you speak write a letter, or make a telephone, your words carry a message.
