19、.had gone二、Reading Comprehensio(总题数：4，分数：40.00)It came as something of a surprise when Diana, Princess of Wales, made a trip to Angola in 1997, to support the Red Crosss campaign for a total ban on all and-personnel landmines (地雷). Within hours of arriving in Angola, television screens around the wo

20、rld were filled with images of her comforting victims injured in explosions caused by landmines. “I knew the statistics,“ she said. “But putting a face to those figures brought the reality home to me; like when I met Sandra, a 13year-old girl who had lost her leg, and people like her. The Princess c

21、oncluded with a simple message: “We must stop landmines“. And she used every opportunity during her visit to repeat this message. But, back in London, her views were not shared by some members of the British government, which refused to support a ban on these weapons. Angry politicians launched an a

22、ttack on the Princess in the press. They described her as “very ill-informed “and a“ loose cannon (乱放的人).The Princess responded by brushing aside the criticisms: “This is a distraction (干扰) we do not need. All Im trying to do is help. Opposition parties, the media and the public immediately voiced t

23、heir support for the Princess. To make matters worse for the government, it soon emerged that the Princesss trip had been approved by the Foreign Office, and that she was in fact very well-informed about both the situation in Angola and the British governments policy regarding landmines. The result

24、was a severe embarrassment for the government. To try and limit the damage, the Foreign Secretary, MalcolmRifkidnd, claimed that the Princesss views on landmines were not very different from government policy, and that it was “working towards“ a worldwide ban. The Defence Secretary, Michael Portillo

25、, claimed the matter was “a misinterpretation or misunderstanding.“ For the Princess, the trip to this war-torn country was an excellent opportunity to use her popularity to show the world how much destruction and suffering landmines can cause. She said that the experience had also given her the cha

26、nce to get closer to people and their problems.（分数：10.00）(1).Princess Diana paid a visit to Angola in 1997 ( ).（分数：2.00）A.to voice her support for a total ban of landminesB.to clarify the British governments stand on landminesC.to investigate the sufferings of landmine victims thereD.to establish he

27、r image as a friend of landmine victims(2).What did Diana mean when she said “. putting a face to those figures brought the reality home to me“ (Paragraph 1 )?（分数：2.00）A.She just couldnt bear to meet the landmine victims face to faceB.The actual situation in Angola made her feel like going back home

31、e British governmentIn sport the sexes are separate. Women and men do not run or swim in the same races. Women are less strong than men. That at least is what people say. Women are called “the weaker sex“, or, if men want to please them, “the fair sex“. But boys and girls are taught together at scho

32、ols and universities. There are women who are famous Prime Ministers, scientists and writers. And women live longer than men. A European woman can expect to live until the age of 74, a man only until he is 68. Are womens bodies really weaker? The fastest men can run a mile in 4 minutes. The best wom

33、en need 4.5 minutes, Womens times are always slower than mens, but some facts are a surprise. Some of the fastest women swimmers today are teenage girls. One of them swam 400 metres in 4 minutes 21.2 seconds when she was only 16. The first “Tarzan“ in films was an Olympic swimmer, Johnny Weissmuller

34、. His fastest 400 metres was 4 minutes 59.1 seconds, which is 37.9 seconds slower than a girl 50 years later! This does not mean that women are catching men up. Conditions are very different now, and sport is much more serious. It is so serious that some women athletes are given hormone (荷尔蒙) inject

35、ions. At the Olympics a doctor has to check whether the women athletes are really women or not. It seems sad that sport has such problems. Life can be very complicated when there are two separate sexes!（分数：10.00）(1).Women are called“ the weaker sex“ because ( ).（分数：2.00）A.women do as much work as me

36、nB.people think women are weaker than menC.sport is easier for men than for womenD.in sport the two sexes are always together(2).Which of the following is true?（分数：2.00）A.Boys and girls study separately everywhereB.Women do not run or swim in races with menC.Famous Prime Ministers are womenD.Men can

An Arab traveller in India in the year 900 wrote that it was played “long, long ago“. Chess was probably invented in India, and it has been played everywhere from Japan to

40、Europe since 1400. The name “chess“ is interesting. When one player is attacking the others king, he says, in English, “check“. When the king has been caught and cannot move anywhere, he says “check mate“. These words come from Persian. “Shah mat“ means “the king is dead“. That is when the game is o

41、ver, and one player has won. Such an old game changes very slowly. The rules have not always been the same as they are now. For example, at one time the queen could only move one square at a time. Now she is the strongest piece on the board. It would be interesting to know why this has happened! Che

42、ss takes time and thought, but it is a game for all kinds of people. You dont have to be a champion in order to enjoy it. It is not always played by two people sitting at the same table. The first time the Americans beat the Russians was in a match played by radio. Some of the chess masters are able

43、 to play many people at the same time. The record was when one man played 400 games! It is said that some people play chess by post. This must make chess the slowest game in the world.（分数：10.00）(1).Which of the following is known to be true?（分数：2.00）A.Chess is an old Indian travelling gameB.Chess is

47、ld not move anywhereLaziness is a sin, everyone knows that. We have probably all had lectures pointing our that laziness is immoral, that it is wasteful, and that lazy people will never amount to anything in life. But laziness can be more harmful than that, and it is often caused by more complex rea

48、sons than simple wish to avoid work. Some people who appear to be lazy are suffering from much more serious problems. They may be so distrustful of their fellow workers that they are unable to join in any group task for fear of ridicule or for fear of having their idea stolen. These people who seem

49、lazy may be paralyzed by a fear of failure that prevents fruitful work. Or other sorts of fantasies, may prevent work, some people are so busy planning, sometimes planning great deals or fantastic achievements that they are unable to deal with whatever “lesser“ work is on hand. Still other people are not avoiding work; strictly speaking, they are merely procrastinating(延迟) rescheduling their day. Laziness can actually be helpful, Like procrastinators (拖延者，拖拉者) , some people may look lazy when they are really thinking, planning, contemplating, researching. We
