But finding the city wasn’t that easy. During the summer of 1991, he and his 40 helpers dug at 35 different spots. The only things they found were ground spiders, giant ticks, and deadly snakes. Just before Thanksgiving said Clapp,“We were within a whisker of total failure.” Then Clapp’s team looked at the high-tech maps again and saw something surprising. Many of the caravan routes（沙漠商隊(duì)路線）on the high-tech maps came together on the same spot marked “Omani Marketplace” on Ptolomy’s map. Two maps, made almost 2,000 years apart, pointed the team toward the same area! In December 1991, Clapp arrived at the spot where, according to the maps, the caravans met. Clapp had a handheld instrument that could detect objects below the ground. It showed ruins under the sand! He and his team started digging, trying not to get their hopes up. And then they found it! A tower buried in the sand. They slowly unearthed a giant, eight-sided fortress（堡壘）. It had nine towers and many rooms. People had lived in this fortress 2,000 years ago. Outside its walls, the crew had found buried remains of nearly 40 campsites. They seemed to be camping areas for traders. More digging found shards, or pieces of pottery from the ancient empires of Rome, Greece, China, Egypt, and Syria. Diggers and scientists agreed that people were on the site for about 5,000 years. Clapp and his team were excited as they continued to uncover more pieces of the past that seemed to prove that it was the lost city of Ubar. “We started with this hopeless myth and then found seeds of truth,” said Clapp, “then finally found the reality behind the myth.” But is this unearthed site really the once-great Ubar? Experts aren’t totally persuaded. Donald Whitcomb is an archeologist（考古學(xué)家）at the University of Chicago. He doubts that Clapp really discovered Ubar. “There’s probably a grain of truth to this myth,” he says. “But Ubar is described as a place with walls all made of gold, and the rubies and emeralds.” No gold or precious stones have been found by Clapp. “I’m not sure whether they discovered Ubar because I’m not sure if Ubar really existed,” Whitcomb says. 1. Which of the following statements is true according to the reading? A. Ubar was an important ancient city which was buried under the sand. B. Ubar was described as a city with towers. C.

The following statements are true according to the reading EXCEPT that __________. A. Clapp made this discovery with the help of caravan routes on the maps B. Clapp made this discovery with the help of some high technology C. Clapp was not sure that he had found Ubar D. Donald Whitcomb was not sure if Clapp had found Ubar 3. Which of the following is closest in meaning to the underlined part? A. We were ready for any failure. B. We were on the point of giving up hope. C. We would never stop digging in spite of some difficulty. D. We decided that we had failed to find Ubar. 4. It can be inferred from the reading that Nicholas Clapp is __________. A. a person of courage B. a person of determination（決心） C. a very young person D. a person who is good for nothing （B） Every year thousands of tourists visit Pompeii, Italy. They see the sights that Pompeii is famous for like its stadium and theatres, its shops and restaurants. The tourists do not, however, see Pompeii’s people. They do not see them because Pompeii has no people. No one has lived in Pompeii for almost 2,000 years. Once, Pompeii was a busy city of 22,000 people. It lay at the foot of Mount Vesuvius, a grass-covered volcano（火山）. Mount Vesuvius had not erupted（噴發(fā)）for centuries, so the people of Pompeii felt safe. But in August of AD 79, Mount Vesuvius erupted. The entire top of the mountain exploded, and a huge black cloud rose into the air. Soon stones and hot ash began to fall on Pompeii. When the eruption ended two days later, Pompeii was buried under 20 feet of stones and ashes. Almost all of its people were dead. For centuries, Pompeii lay buried under stone and ash. Then, in the year 1861, an Italian scientist named Ginseppe began to uncover Pompeii. Slowly and carefully, Ginseppe and his men dug. The city looked almost the same as it had looked in AD 79. There were streets and fountains, houses and shops. There was a stadium with 20,000 seats. Perhaps the most important of all, there were everyday objects, which tell us a great deal about the people who lived in Pompeii. Many glasses and jars had some dark blue colour in the bottom, so we know that the people of Pompeii liked wine. They liked bread too; metal bread pans were in every bakery. In one bakery there were 81 round, flat loaves of bread—a type of bread that is still sold in Italy today. Tiny boxes filled with a dark, shiny powder tell us that women liked to wear eye-makeup. Ginseppe has died, but his work continues. One-fourth has not been uncovered yet. Scientists are still digging, still making discoveries that draw the tourists to Pompeii. 5. A number of people come to Pompeii each year for the following reasons except _______. A. to visit the volcano B. to shop and eat there C. to watch sports and plays D. to see how Pompeiians lived 6. Why had so many people remained by volcanic Mount Vesuvius? A. The city nearly offered all kinds of fun. B. The area produced the finest wine in Italy. C. Few people expected the volcano to erupt again. D. The mountain was beautiful and covered with grass. 7. Why did the city uncovered look almost the same as it had looked in AD 79? A. Because Ginseppe and his men dug it slowly and carefully. B. Because the city was buried alive and remained untouched. C. Because scientists successfully rebuilt the city with everyday objects. D. Because nobody had lived in the city ever since the volcano erupted. 8. What do we know about the Pompeiians who lived 2,000 years ago? A. They lived more or less the same as Italians now do. B. They liked women wearing all kinds of makeup. C. They enjoyed a lazy life with drinking and eating. D. They went back to Pompeii after the eruption in AD 79. 一 單選 CADDBAC 下列每個句子都有一處錯誤，請找出來并改正 1. are→is 解析：先行詞one前有the only修飾，定語從句中的謂語動詞應(yīng)用單數(shù)形式。 2. 在help前加to 解析：句中(that) you can (do) 是定語從句，修飾先行詞everything，其中do承前被省略， help others是do everything的目的，應(yīng)用不定式作目的狀語，故在help前加to。 3. agree→allow 解析：agree后面不能接不定式作賓補(bǔ)，即不能說agree sb to do sth，而allow則可以。 4. from→of 解析：be made of意為“由······制成（能看出原材料）”，而be made from看不出原材料。 5. 本題可在關(guān)系代詞which后加were，使定語從句完整。也可以去掉which，這樣bought 作為過去分詞同樣起了定語的作用。 閱讀理解，根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容選擇最佳答案 1. B 解析：文章第一段第一句只是提到了some of Ubar’ ruins sticking out of the sand，并沒有 提到是全部埋在沙子下方，故A不正確；文章第三段第二句講到標(biāo)有“Omani Marketplace” 地點(diǎn)的地圖是Ptolomy’s map，故C錯誤；由文章第一段最后一句和第五段第一句可知 選項(xiàng)D把兩處挖掘出的東西放在一個地方了，故錯誤。文章第四段講到了他們從沙子里 挖到了一座塔，所以B正確。 2. C 解析：由文章第三段可知A和B是正確的，由文章第七段第二句可知D正確；由文章第 五段最后一句可知Clapp認(rèn)為他們所挖到的就是遺失的城市Ubar，所以C錯誤，故選C。 3. B 解析：根據(jù)上文我們知道他們挖了35個地方，但是都沒有什么收獲，所以應(yīng)該是要絕望 了，故選B。 4. B 解析：通過全文我們可以知道Clapp在找尋Ubar過程中并不是一帆風(fēng)順的，但還是堅持 下來，終于挖出了有價值的東西，所以說他是個有決心的人。 5. D 解析：根據(jù)文章第一段第三句和第四句可知龐培沒有人居住，所以游客無法看到龐培人是 如何生活的，故選D。 6. C 解析：由第一段最后2句話可知，雖然是在火山腳下，但是這座火山已經(jīng)好幾個世紀(jì)沒有 噴發(fā)過了，所以龐培人認(rèn)為住在這里是安全的，故選C。 7. B 解析：因?yàn)榛鹕酵蝗粐姲l(fā)，整個城市被埋在了石頭和灰燼下，所以龐培保持了它原有的面 貌，故選B，而非A，C和D所說的原因。 8. A 解析：根據(jù)倒數(shù)第二段倒數(shù)第二句可知，選項(xiàng)A是正確的；由該段最后一句話可知選項(xiàng)B 是錯誤的，應(yīng)該是eye-makeup，而不是all kinds of makeup；選項(xiàng)C不正確，文章并未提 及龐培人過著一種慵懶的生活；選項(xiàng)D是錯誤的。 111
