18、s. They have stood for nearly 5,000 years, and it seems likely that they will continue to stand for thousands of years yet. There are over eighty of them along the banks of the Nile, some of which are different in shape from the true pyramids. The most famous of these are the “Step“ pyramid and the
19、“Bent“ pyramid.Some of the pyramids still look as much alike as they must have been when they were built thousands of years ago. Most of the damage suffered by the others has been at the hands of men who were looking for treasure or, more often, for stones to use in modern buildings. The dry climate
20、 of Egypt has helped to keep the pyramids in good condition, and their very shape has made them less likely to fall into ruin. These are good reasons why they can still be seen today, but perhaps the most important is that they were planned to last forever.The “Step“ pyramid had to be on the west si
21、de of the Nile, the side on which the sun set. This was for level of the river to protect it against the regular floods. It could not be too far from the Nile, however, as the stones to build it needed to be carried in boats down the river to the nearest point. Water transport was, of course, much e
22、asier than land transport. The builders also had to find a rock base, which was not likely to break under the great weight of the pyramid. Finally, it had to be near the capital, or better still near the kings palace so that he could visit it easily to personally check the progress being made on the
23、 final resting place for his body.36. The most important reason why some pyramids remain in good condition is that .A. people have taken good care of themB. it doesnt rain often in EgyptC. they were well designedD. the government has protected them from damage37. Most of the damage to the pyramids h
24、as been caused by .A. the regular floodsB. the dry climate of EgyptC. the special shape of the pyramidsD. people in search of building materials38. The Egyptians built the pyramids along the banks of the Nile because .A. they believed in their godB. it was difficult to find a large rock base far fro
25、m the NileC. the river helped a lot in the transport of building materialsD. it was not easy to choose a suitable place for the pyramids39. The last paragraph of the passage mainly tells us .A. it was easy for the king to checkB. water transport was easier than land transportC. there was a rock base
26、 for the “Step“ pyramid to be built onD. why the “Step“ pyramid had to be built on the west side of the NileBThe most important thing of becoming rich is for you to have a mindset(心态) to want to become rich. The reason I say that is that I wanted to become rich when I played Monopoly(强手棋). The great
27、est formula(公式) for wealth is found on that board game. Then my poor dad said, “Ah, put the game away. Study, study, study! Youre wasting your time playing.“ While my rich dad said, “You must open your mind and see the formula right on Monopoly.“I wondered, “Whats the formula?“ And finally I learned
28、 the formula is: four green houses, a red hotel. Today Im a rich man because all I ever did since that time was buying four green houses, selling them all, buying a red hotel, four green houses. You must have an open mindset. If you have an open mindset you will learn from everything; if not you wil
29、l learn from nothing. So I think that is the most important thing.I dont have a salary; I only had a job for four years in my life. I dont want a salary. What the middle class and poor want is high income and money. But they have no wealth because they have no assets(资产). You must know the differenc
30、e between money and wealth. Money will never make you rich. Wealth makes you rich. I have large companies, lots of stocks, real estate. Thats what makes me rich, so the money just comes in whether I work or not.Bill Gates only makes $500,000 a year and I make more than him, but hes worth $20 billion
31、. Im trying to tell you there is a very big difference between money and wealth. So I have spent my life buying assets. Thats what makes you rich, not a job. The reason the rich in America get richer is that they pass this on to their kids. My poor dad always said, “High paying job, high paying job,
32、 high paying job.“ And my rich dad said, “Assets, assets, assets.“ Thats the difference.40. Whats the most important factor of becoming rich?A. A good salary. B. Playing Monopoly.C. Working hard.

Playing Games Can Make You RichCThe ancient Maya mastered the art of ceramic (制陶艺术) in a manner which virtually no other culture did.The Vase of
35、 the Seven Gods, made in the area of Naranjo, an ancient city of the Maya civilization in the present-day Petn, Guatemala, shows the fine way Maya handled clay. Like all art of Maya, this vase exhibits highly religious symbols. Furthermore, the artists name is carved along the bottom of this piece i
36、n the form of a small white rabbit.Ceramics also served as reminders of ancestors and gods. The Flour De Lis Vase is a fine example of this. The water lilies are not only symbols of new birth and life giving qualities, but a constant reminder of purity. On this vase, the water lilies are white, whic
37、h is undoubtedly a sign of purity. The black background shows the sea, in which the lilies float.Furthermore, ceramics served practical functions in the Maya culture. Vases, which are quite commonly seen today, were used primarily to hold liquid chocolate and cocoa. Bowls were used to hold various m
38、aize(玉米) products. Maize was seen as the imaginary body of the Maize God and the ancient Maya thought that as one ate the maize or the body of God from the bowl, they actually became God. Plates were merely used for any object.Finally, Maya used depictions on ceramics to resurrect(复活) family members
39、 and honor gods. Because they believe that they would come back to life with their names spoken or their figures drawn, the carvings and paintings on these ceramics played a vital role in Maya spirituality.Clearly, ceramics served a key function in ancient Maya society from dinner plates to acts of
40、God.44. What do we know from the passage?A. The art of ceramic of the ancient Maya was instructed by gods.B. The Vase of the Seven Gods was made by the people of Guatemala.C.

43、aw the attention of the shoppersD. wish they would come back to lifeDWe all enjoy the colors of autumn leaves. The changing fall leaves never fail to surprise us. Did you ever wonder how and why a fall leaf changes color? Where do the yellows and oranges come from? To answer those questions, we firs
44、t have to understand what leaves are and what they do.Leaves are natures food factories. Plants take water from the ground through their roots. They take a gas called carbon dioxide from the air. Plants use sunlight to turn water and carbon dioxide into oxygen and glucose(葡萄糖). Oxygen is a gas in th
45、e air that we need to breathe. Glucose is a kind of sugar. Plants use glucose as food for energy and as a building block for growing. The way plants turn water and carbon dioxide into sugar is called photosynthesis(光合作用). A chemical called chlorophyll(叶绿素) helps make photosynthesis happen. Chlorophy
46、ll is what gives plants their green color.As summer ends and autumn comes, the days get shorter and shorter. This is how the trees “know“ to begin getting ready for winter.During winter, there is not enough light or water for photosynthesis. The trees will rest, and live on the food they stored duri
47、ng summer. They begin to shut down their food-making factories. The green chlorophyll disappears from the leaves. As the bright green dies away, we begin to see yellow and orange colors. Small amounts of these colors have been in the leaves all along. We just cant see them in summer, because they are covered up by the green chlorophyll.The bright reds and purples we see in leaves are made mostly in the fall. In some trees, like maples, glucose is trapped in the leaves after photosynthesis stops. Sunlight and the cool nights of autumn cause the leaves to turn this
