24、AAre the British people Europeans?This may seem a strange question to Africans and Asians,who tend to think of all white men as Europeans.But the British,when they are in Britain,do not regard themselves as Europeans.The Europeans,to them,are those rather excitable foreigners from the other side of
25、the English Channel,who have never learnt how to speak English.Europe is “the Continent”:a place full of interest for British tourists,but also the source of almost all the wars in which Britain has ever been involved.Thus,although geographically speaking Britain is a part of Europe,yet the fact tha
26、t it is a separate island has made its people feel very,very insular.They feel,and in many ways are,different from the rest of Europe and they sometimes annoy continental nations by failing to support them,or even to understand them,in time of need.Where did the British people come from?This is an e
27、xtraordinary interesting question,since they are a mixture of many different races,and all these races invaded Britain at various times from Europe.Nobody knows very much about Britain before the Romans came during the first century BC.,but there had been at least three invasions before that.The fir
28、st of these was by a darkhaired Mediterranean race called the Iberians.The other two were by Celtic tribes:first the Gaels,whose descendants are the modern Scots and Irish,some of whom still speak the Gaelic language;and second the Britons,who gave their name to the whole island of Britain.These wer
29、e the people whom the Romans conquered.The Romans gave the Britons a good deal of their civilisation,but they never settled in Britain in very large numbers,so the British race survived until the overthrow of the Roman Empire by the “barbarians”,i.e.the numerous Germanic tribes which overran the who
30、le of Western Europe.56The purpose of the passage is to_.Atalk about EuropeansBdiscuss the origin of British peopleCargue for the superiority of British peopleDcompare the Europeans with Africans and Asians57It can be known from the passage that_.Amost people think white people are EuropeansBthere a
31、re many Africans and Asians living in EuropeCwhite men are Europeans in the eyes of Africans and AsiansDthe British people think of themselves as Europeans58.It can be inferred from the passage that_.AEuropeans are those who are unable to speak EnglishBthose who invaded Britain came from the other s
32、ide of the English ChannelCBritain is a place full of interest for those excitable foreignersDBritain is the source of almost all the wars in Europe59Why do the British people feel very insular?AThey are different from those people in the continent.BThey sometimes fail to support the continental cou
33、ntries in time of need.CThey are separated geographically from the continent.DThey are considered very difficult to understand.BYears ago,I lived in a building in a large city.The next building was only a few feet away from mine.There was a woman who lived there,and I had never met her,yet I could s
34、ee she sat by her window each afternoon,sewing or reading.After several months had gone by,I began to notice that her window was dirty.Everything was unclear through the dirty window.I would say to myself.“I wonder why that woman doesnt wash her window.It really looks terrible.”One bright morning I
35、decided to clean my flat,including washing the window on the inside.Late in the afternoon when I finished the cleaning,I sat down by the window with a cup of coffee for a rest.What a surprise!Across the way,the woman sitting by her window was clearly visible(看见)Her window was clean!Then it dawned on
36、 me.I had been criticizing(批评) her dirty window,but all the time I was watching hers through my own dirty window.That was quite an important lesson for me.How often had I looked at and criticized others through the dirty window of my heart,through my own shortcomings?Since then,whenever I wanted to
37、judge(评判) someone,I asked myself first, “Am I looking at him through my own dirty window?” I try to clean the window of my own world so that I may see the world about me more clearly.60The writer couldnt see everything clearly through the window because _.Athe womans window was dirtyBthe writers win
38、dow was dirtyCthe woman lived nearbyDthe writer was nearsighted61 “It dawned on me” probably means “_”AI began to understand itBIt cheered me upCI knew it grew lightDIt began to get dark62Its clear that _.Athe writer had never met the woman beforeBthe writer often washed the windowCthey both worked
39、as cleanersDthey lived in a small town63From the passage,we can learn _.Aone shouldnt criticize others very oftenBone should often make his windows cleanCone must judge himself before he judges othersDone must look at others through his dirty windowsCDid you know that vegetables can grow in the clim
40、ates they are not used to?Cool climate vegetables like asparagus(芦笋) are now able to be grown in places as hot as Hawaii.In Hawaii,marine(海的) engineers have been able to actually let you believe such vegetables are living in hotter climates.In that way they grow faster and taste better.What these en
41、gineers have been using is simply cold sea water.How did they use it?They place pipes in the soil and cold water flowing through them cools the earth.This causes plant growth and enables gardeners in tropical climates to grow crops from cooler climates.Also some of these pipes are exposed to the air
42、 and they make the air “wet” and thus water the gardens.What especially makes people happy about this process is that nothing bad to the natural conditions is being used.Another new use of cold ocean water is to cool buildings.Engineers believe that the entire west coast of the United States could b
43、e airconditioned using sea water.64What does the new system enable the gardeners to do?AWater the field with sea water.BGrow asparagus in hot places.CGrow cool climate vegetables in hot areas.DCool the soil.65Sea water mentioned in the passage is mainly used to _.Awater the farms Bwater the gardensC
44、cool the air Dmake the earth cool66What is the report mainly about?AHow to grow vegetables in hot areas.BHow to grow crops in tropical climates.CHow to cool the soil.DHow to use sea water.67It can be inferred from the passage that _.Asea water can act as an airconditionerBasparagus are only grown in
45、 hot placesCthe writer wants to tell us something about scientific advanceDsea water has many advantagesDThe time of year a baby is born can shape what profession they will embark_on in later life,a new study has suggested.Being born in a certain month appears to indicate the statistical likelihood
46、of what job a person will end up with,the study by the Office for National Statistics found.Researchers have uncovered that the month in which babies are born could also affect everything from intelligence to length of life.A child born in December is more likely to become a dentist while someone wh
47、ose birthday falls in January will tend to a debt collector,they found.A February birth appears to increase the chances of being an artist while March babies appear to go on to become pilots.Meanwhile,April and May are said to have a fairly even spread of professions,births in the summer months mean
48、 a much lower chance of becoming a highearning football player,doctor or dentist.The study was derived by researchers who analyzed the birth months of people in 19 separate occupations using information from the last census,the Daily Mail reported.Although these trends may be difficult to explain,correlations between birth months and
