2.Passage TwoI was only eight years old when the Second World War ended, but I can still remember something about the victory celebrations in the small town where I lived on the day when the war in Europe ended. We had not suffered much from the war there. But both at home and at school I had become accustomed to the phrases "before the war" and "when the war's over". "Before the war", apparently, things had been better, though I was too young to understand why, except that there had been no bombs then, and people had eaten things like ice -cream and bananas, which I had only heard of . When the war was over we would go back to London, but this meant little to me. I did not remember what London was like.What I remember now about VE (Victory in Europe) Day was the May evening. After dinner I said I wanted to see the bonfire (大火堆) , so when it got dark my father took me to the end of the street. The bonfire was very high, and somehow people had collected some old clothes to dress the un- mistakable figure with the moustache (胡子) they had to put on top of it. Just as we arrived, they set light to it. The flames rose and soon swallowed the "guy". Everyone was cheering and shouting, and an old woman came out of her house with two chairs and threw them on the fire to keep it going.I stood beside my father until the fire started to go down, not knowing what to say. He said nothing, either. He had fought in the First World War and may have been remembering the end of that. At last he said, "Well, that's it, son. Let's hope that this time it really will be the last one."40. Where did the author live before the Second World War?A. In London.B. In a small town.C. In Europe.D. In the countryside.

    The Iceman

    On a September day in 1991,two Germans were climbing the mountains between Austria and Italy. High
    up on a mountain pass,they found the body of a man lying on the ice.At that height(10,499 feet or 3,200
    meters),the ice is usually permanent,but 1991 had been an especially warm year. The mountain ice had
    melted more than usual and so the body had come to the surface.
    It was lying face downward. The skeleton(骨架)was in perfect condition, except for a wound in the
    head.There was still skin on the bones and the remains of some clothes.The hands were still holding the
    wooden handle of an ax and on the feet there were very simple leather and cloth boots.Nearby was a pair of
    gloves made of tree bark(树皮)and a holder for arrows.
    Who was this man?How and when had he died?Everybody had a different answer to these questions.
    Some people thought that it was from this century,perhaps the body of a soldier who died in World War I,
    since several soldiers had already been found in the area. A Swiss woman believed it might be her father,
    who had died in those mountains twenty years before and whose body had never been found.The scientists
    who rushed to look at the body thought it was probably much older,maybe even a thousand years old.
    With modern dating techniques,the scientists soon learned that the iceman was about 5,300 years old.
    Born in about 3300 B.C.,he lived during the Bronze Age in Europe.At first scientists thought he was probably
    a hunter who had died in an accident in the high mountains.More recent evidence,however,tells a different
    story.A new kind of X-ray shows an arrowhead still stuck in his shoulder. It left only a tiny hole in his skin,
    but it caused internal damage and bleeding. He almost certainly died from this wound, and not from the
    wound on the back of his head.This means that he was probably in some kind of a battle.It might have been
    part of a larger war,or he might have beenl fighting bandits.He might even have been a bandit himself.
    By studying his clothes and tools,scientists have already learned a great deal from the iceman about the
    times he lived in.we may never know the full story of how he died,but he has given us important clues to the

    A:he was a soldier in World War Ⅰ
    B:he came from Italy

    The easy way out isn’t always easiest. I learned that lesson when I decided to treat Doug, my husband of one month, to a special meal. I glanced through my cook book and chose a menu which included homemade bread. Knowing the bread would take time. I started on it as soon as Doug left for work. As I was not experienced in cooking, I thought if a dozen was good, two dozen would be better, so I doubled everything. As Doug loved oranges, I also opened a can of orange and poured it all into the bowl. Soon there was a sticky dough covered with ugly yellowish marks. Realizing I had been defeated, I put the dough in the rubbish bin outside so I wouldn’t have to face Doug laughing at my work. I went on preparing the rest of the meal, and, when Doug got home, we sat down to Cornish chicken with rice. He tried to enjoy the meal but seemed disturbed. Twice he got up and went outside, saying he thought he heard a noise. The third time he left, I went to the windows to see what he was doing. Looking out, I saw Doug standing about three feet from the rubbish bin, holding the lid up with a stick and looking into the container. When I came out of the house, he dropped the stick and explained that there was something alive in out rubbish bin. Picking up the stick again, he held the lid up enough for me to see. I felt cold. But I stepped closer and looked harder. Without doubt it was my work. The hot sun had caused the dough to double in size and the fermenting yeast made the surface shake and sigh as though it were breathing. I had to admit what the living thing was and why it was there. I don't know who was more embarrassed by the whole thing—Doug or me. Why did the woman’s attempt at making the bread turn out to be unsuccessful?()
    A

    The canned orange had gone bad.

    B

    She didn’t use the right kind of flour.

    C

    The cookbook was hard to understand.

    D

    She did not follow the directions closely.


    正确答案: B
    解析: 文中提及“As I was not experienced in cooking I thought if a dozen was good, two dozen would be better” 和“As Doug loved orange, I also opened a can of orange and poured it all into the bowl”,可知这位家庭主妇(即作者)并未按烹调指南行事,故应选D。

    The Iceman

    On a September day in 1991,two Germans were climbing the mountains between Austria and Italy. High
    up on a mountain pass,they found the body of a man lying on the ice.At that height(10,499 feet or 3,200
    meters),the ice is usually permanent,but 1991 had been an especially warm year. The mountain ice had
    melted more than usual and so the body had come to the surface.
    It was lying face downward. The skeleton(骨架)was in perfect condition, except for a wound in the
    head.There was still skin on the bones and the remains of some clothes.The hands were still holding the
    wooden handle of an ax and on the feet there were very simple leather and cloth boots.Nearby was a pair of
    gloves made of tree bark(树皮)and a holder for arrows.
    Who was this man?How and when had he died?Everybody had a different answer to these questions.
    Some people thought that it was from this century,perhaps the body of a soldier who died in World War I,
    since several soldiers had already been found in the area. A Swiss woman believed it might be her father,
    who had died in those mountains twenty years before and whose body had never been found.The scientists
    who rushed to look at the body thought it was probably much older,maybe even a thousand years old.
    With modern dating techniques,the scientists soon learned that the iceman was about 5,300 years old.
    Born in about 3300 B.C.,he lived during the Bronze Age in Europe.At first scientists thought he was probably
    a hunter who had died in an accident in the high mountains.More recent evidence,however,tells a different
    story.A new kind of X-ray shows an arrowhead still stuck in his shoulder. It left only a tiny hole in his skin,
    but it caused internal damage and bleeding. He almost certainly died from this wound, and not from the
    wound on the back of his head.This means that he was probably in some kind of a battle.It might have been
    part of a larger war,or he might have beenl fighting bandits.He might even have been a bandit himself.
    By studying his clothes and tools,scientists have already learned a great deal from the iceman about the
    times he lived in.we may never know the full story of how he died,but he has given us important clues to the
    history of those distant times.

    What can be inferred from Paragraph 2?
    A:The iceman could have died from the wound in the head.

    The Iceman

    On a September day in 1991,two Germans were climbing the mountains between Austria and Italy. High
    up on a mountain pass,they found the body of a man lying on the ice.At that height(10,499 feet or 3,200
    meters),the ice is usually permanent,but 1991 had been an especially warm year. The mountain ice had
    melted more than usual and so the body had come to the surface.
    It was lying face downward. The skeleton(骨架)was in perfect condition, except for a wound in the
    head.There was still skin on the bones and the remains of some clothes.The hands were still holding the
    wooden handle of an ax and on the feet there were very simple leather and cloth boots.Nearby was a pair of
    gloves made of tree bark(树皮)and a holder for arrows.
    Who was this man?How and when had he died?Everybody had a different answer to these questions.
    Some people thought that it was from this century,perhaps the body of a soldier who died in World War I,
    since several soldiers had already been found in the area. A Swiss woman believed it might be her father,
    who had died in those mountains twenty years before and whose body had never been found.The scientists
    who rushed to look at the body thought it was probably much older,maybe even a thousand years old.
    With modern dating techniques,the scientists soon learned that the iceman was about 5,300 years old.
    Born in about 3300 B.C.,he lived during the Bronze Age in Europe.At first scientists thought he was probably
    a hunter who had died in an accident in the high mountains.More recent evidence,however,tells a different
    story.A new kind of X-ray shows an arrowhead still stuck in his shoulder. It left only a tiny hole in his skin,
    but it caused internal damage and bleeding. He almost certainly died from this wound, and not from the
    wound on the back of his head.This means that he was probably in some kind of a battle.It might have been
    part of a larger war,or he might have beenl fighting bandits.He might even have been a bandit himself.
    By studying his clothes and tools,scientists have already learned a great deal from the iceman about the
    times he lived in.we may never know the full story of how he died,but he has given us important clues to the
    history of those distant times.

    The scientists made the deduction that the iceman______________.
    A:was hit in the shoulder by an arrowhead
    B:had a tiny hole in his skin causing his death
    C:was probably in some kind of a battle
    D:had got a wound on the back of his head

    答案:C
    解析:
