39、ing parts has wheels, yet no one knows exactly when the first wheel was invented or what it was used for. We do know，however，that they existed over 5,500years ago in ancient Asia. The oldest known transport wheel was discovered in 2002 in Slovenia. It is over 5，100 years 0ld. Evidence suggests that

40、wheels for transport didn't become popular for a while, though. This could be because animals did a perfectly good job of carrying farming tools and humans around.But it could also be because of a difficult situation. While wheels need to roll on smooth surfaces, roads with smooth surfaces weren

41、't going to be constructed until there was plenty of demand for them. Eventually,road surfaces did become smoother, but this difficult situation appeared again a few centuries later. There had been no important changes in wheel and vehicle design before the arrival of modern road design.In the m

42、id-1700s,a Frenchman came up with a new design of road-a base layer (層)of largestones covered with a thin layer of smaller atones. A Scotsman improved on this design in the 1820s and a strong,lasting road surface became a reality.At around the same time,metal hubs(the central part of awheel)came int

43、o being,followed by the pneumatic tyre（充氣輪胎）in 1846. Alloy wheels were invented in 1967, sixty years after the appearance of tarmacked roads(泊油路). As wheel design took off, vehicles got faster and faster.64.What might explain why transport wheels didnt become popular for some time?A.Few knew how to

44、use transport wheels.B.Humans carried farming tools just as well.C. Animals were a good means of transport.D.

46、road design.B.The development of transport wheels.C.The history of public transport.D.The invention of fast-moving vehicles.DNotall bodies of water are so evidently alive as the Atlantic Ocean, an S-shaped body of water covering 33 million square miles. The Atlantic has, in a sense, replaced the Med

47、iterranean as the inland sea of Western civilization. Unlike real inland seas, which seem strangely still, the Atlantic is rich in oceanic liveliness. It is perhaps not surprising that its vitality has been much written about by ancient poets.“Storm at Sea”, a short poem written around 700, is gener

48、ally regarded as one of mankinds earliest artistic representations of the Atlantic.When the wind is from the westAll the waves that cannot rest To the east must thunder on Where the bright tree of the sunIs rooted in the oceans breast.As the poem suggests, the Atlantic is never dead and dull. It is

49、an ocean that moves, impressively and endlessly. It makes all kinds of noise-it is forever thundering,boiling, crashing,and whistling.It is easy to imagine the Atlantic trying to draw breath-perhaps not so noticeably out in mid ocean,but where it meets land, its waters bathing up and down a sandy be

50、ach. It mimics(模仿)nearly perfectly the steady breathing of a living creature. It is filled with symbiotic existences,too: unimaginable quantities of creatures,little and large alike,mix within its depths in a kind of oceanic harmony, giving to the waters a feeling of heartbeat, a kind of sub-ocean v

51、itality. And it has a psychology. It has personalities: sometimes peaceful and pleasant, on rare occasions rough and wild; always it is strong and striking.68.Unlike real inland seas, the Atlantic Ocean is _.A.always energeticB.lacking in livelinessC.shaped like a squareD.favored by ancient poets69.

52、What is the purpose of using the poem“Storm at Sea” in the passage?A.To describe the movement of the waves.B.To show the strength of the storm.C.To represent the power of the ocean.D.To prove the vastness of the sea.70.What does the underlined word”symbiotic” mean?A.Living together.B.Growing fast.C.

53、Moving harmoniously.D.Breathing peacefully.71.In the last paragraph, the Atlantic is compared to _.A. a beautiful and poetic placeB.a flesh and blood personC.a wonderful worldD.a lovely animalEIt is widely known that any English conversation begins with The Weather. Such a fixation with the weather

54、finds expression in Dr.Johnsons famous comment that “When two English meet, their first talk is of weather.” Though Johnsons observation is as accurate now as it was over two hundred years ago, most commentators fail to come up with a convincing explanation for this English weather-speak.Bill Bryson

55、, for example, concludes that,as the English weather is not at all exciting,the obsession with it can hardly be understood. He argues that, to an outsider,the most striking thing about the English weather is that there is not very much of it.” Simply, the reason is that the unusual and unpredictable

56、 weather is almost unknown in the British Isles.Jeremy Paxman, however, disagrees with Bryson, arguing that the English weather is by nature attractive. Bryson is wrong, he says,because the English preference for the weather has nothing to do with the natural phenomena.”The interest is less in the phenomena themselves, but in uncertainty.” According to him, the weather in England is very changeable and uncertain and it attrac
