20、ibutes(贡品) for the Emperor throughout a territory that ranges from Korea and Japan to Eastern coast of Africa. The Admiral Cheng Ho began the first of seven voyages in 1405.

21、as made up of 62 large junks and 255 smaller ships, recaptured the deposed emperor and also defeated a large pirate fleet that had been terrorizing the islands near Sumatra.

27、ok Cheng Ho 30 years to visit 37 countriesTask 2Directions: This task is the same as Task 1. The 5 questions or unfinished statements are numbered 41 through 45.41 Climate, more than any other single factor, determines the distribution of life on earth. Climatic boundaries establish the limits withi

28、n which organisms can survive. Plants, even more than animals, must be well adapted to climate in order to survive.

29、elter from icy winds.Animals, despite their ability to move about and find shelter, are just as much influenced by climate as plants are.

After reading it, you are require

35、d to complete the outline in the table below (No. 46 through 50). You should write your answers briefly (in no more than 3 words) on the blanks.46 We continue to share with our remotest ancestors the most tangled and evasive attitudes about death, despite the great distance we have come in understan

36、ding some of the profound aspects of biology. We have as much distaste for talking about personal death as for thinking about it; it is an indelicacy, like talking in mixed company about venereal disease or abortion in the old days. Death on a grand scale does not bother us in the same special way:

It is when the numbers of dead are very small, an

38、d very close, that we begin to think in scurrying circles. At the very center of the problem is the naked cold deadness of ones own self, the only reality in nature of which we can have absolute certainty, and it is unmentionable, unthinkable. We may be even less willing to face the issue at first h

39、and than our predecessors because of a secret new hope that maybe it will go away. We like to think, hiding the thought, that with all the marvelous ways in which we seem now to lead nature around by the nose, perhaps we can avoid the central problem if we just become, next year, say, a bit smarter.

40、People dislike talking about death because they just【46】still have the vaguest ideas of the issue. They talk about death only when【47】people are killed in war. When they find only very few people die each time and【48】are almost equal, they become very anxious, thinking that next time they themselves

41、 will meet their doom. Therefore,【49】However, they have a hope that when they control nature, they can【50】.Task 4Directions: The following is a list of terms.
