Brotherly Love

  Adidas and Puma have been two of the biggest names in sports shoe manufacturing for over half a century.

  Since l928 they have supplied shoes for Olympic athletes.World Cup-winning football heroes.Muhammad Ali.hip hop stars and rock musicians famous all over the world.But the story of these two companies begins in one house in the town of Herzogenaurach, Germany.

  Adolph and Rudolph Dassler were the sons of a shoemaker.They loved sport but complained that they could never find comfortable shoes to play in.Rudolph always said, You cannot play sports wearing shoes that you’d walk around town with. So they started making their own.In l920 Adolph made the first pair of athletic shoes with spikes(钉), produced on the Dasslers’ kitchen table.

  On lst July l924 they formed a shoe company,Dassler Brothers Ltd and they worked together for many years.The company became successful and it provided the shoes for Germany’s athletes at the l928 and l932 Olympic Games.

  But in l948 the brothers argued.No one knows exactly what happened,but family members have suggested that the argument was about money or women.The result was that Adolph left the company.His nickname was Adi.and using this and the first three letters of the family name, Dassler, he founded Adidas.

  Rudolph relocated across the River Aurach and founded his own company too.At first he wanted to call it Ruda, but eventually he called it Puma,after the wild cat.The famous Puma logo of the jumping cat has hardly changed since.

  After the big split of l948 Adolph and Rudolph never spoke to each other again and their companies have now been in competition for over sixty years.Both companies were for many years the market leaders, though Adidas has always been more successful than Puma.A hip hop group, Run DMC,has even written a song called “My Adidas” and in 2005 Adidas bought Reebok, another big sports shoe company.

  The terrible family argument should really be forgotten,but ever since it happened,over sixty years ago.the town has been split into two.Even now,some Adidas employees and Puma employees don’t talk to each other.

  16 Adidas and Puma started to make sports shoes at the end of the l9th century.

  A Right B Wrong C Not mentioned

  17 The brothers’ father was a ball maker.

  A Right B Wrong C Not mentioned

  18 The brothers first made sports shoes at home.

  19 The brothers provided sports shoes for the l924 Olympic Games.

Who Built Giza’s Pyramids(金字塔)?

  1 For centuries,the pyramids of Giza have been timeless symbols of Egyptian culture.But who actually built them? For years,we did not know for sure.But archeologists(考古学家) recently discovered an ancient village near the pyramids.Close by.there was also a cemetery(墓地)where pyramid builders were buried.From studying these places,archeologists can now confirm that the pyramids were not built by slaves or foreigners.Ordinary Egyptians built them.

  2 It took about eighty years to build the pyramids.According to archeologists.about 20,000-30,000 people were involved in completing the task.The workers had different roles.Some dug up the rock.some moved it,and some shaped it into blocks.People also worked on different teams. each with its own name.On a wall in Khufu’s Great Pyramid,for example,a group of workers wrote “Fnends of Khufu.”Teams often competed to do a job faster.

  3 Life for these workers was hard.“We can see that in their skeletons(骨架).”says Azza Mohamed Sarry El-Din.a scientist studying bodies found in the cemetery.The bones show signs of arthritis(关节炎),which developed from carrying heavy things for a long time.Archeologists have also found many female skeletons in the village and cemetery.The damage to their bones is similar to the men’s.Their lives may have been even tougher: male workers lived to age 40—45.but women to only 30—35.However, workers usually had enough food.and they also had medical care if they got sick or hurt.

  4 The work was challenging, but laborers were proud of their work.“It's because they were not just building the tomb of their king.” says Egyptian archeologist Zahi Hawass.“They were building Egypt.It was a national project.and everyone was a participant.”

  下面有3篇短文,每篇短文后有5道题.请根据短文内容,为每题确定l个最佳选项.

第一篇 The Changing Middle Class

  The United States perceives itself to be a middle-class nation.However,middle class is not a real designation,nor does it carry privileges(特权).It is more of a perception,which probably was as true as it ever could be right after World War Ⅱ.The economy was growing, more and more people owned their own homes.workers had solid contracts with the companies that employed them, and nearly everyone who wanted a higher education could have one.Successful people enjoyed upward social mobility.They may have started out poor, but they could become rich.Successful people also found that they had greater geographic mobility.In other words.they found themselves moving to and living in a variety of places.

  The middle class collectively holds several values and principles.One strong value is the need to earn enough money to feel that one can determine one’s own economic fate.In addition,middle-class morality(道德观)embraces principles of individual responsibility, importance of family, obligations to others, and believing in something outside oneself.

  But in the l990s those in the middle class found that there was a price for success.AU.S. News & World Report survey in l994 indicated that 75 percent of Americans believed that middle-class families could no longer make ends meet.Both spouses(配偶)now worked,as did some of the children,long commutes(通勤)became routine,the need for child care put strains on the family.and public schools were not as good as they once were. Members of the middle class were no longer financing their lifestyles through earnings but were using credit to stay afloat(透支).The understanding of just what middle class meant was changing.

  D they should earn enough to finance their lifestyles

  34 In the second paragraph, the word “collectively” means .

  A commonly

  B hesitatingly

  C unknowingly

  D weakly

  35 The l994 survey showed most Americans thought the middle class .

  A took pleasure in raising children

  B had a regular journey to work

  C could not earn enough money to maintain their lifestyles

  D could easily maintain their lifestyles

第二篇 Puerto Rican Cuisine(菜肴)

  Puerto Rico, a Caribbean (加勒比海区) island rich in history and remarkable natural beauty, has a cuisine all its own. Immigration(移民) to the island has helped to shape its cuisine, with people from all over the world making various contributions to it. However, before the arrival of these immigrants, the Taino people lived on the island of Puerto Rico. Taino cuisine included such foods as rodents (啮齿动物), fresh shellfish and fish fried in corn oil.

  Many aspects of Taino cuisine continue today in Puerto Rican cooking, but it has been heavily influenced by the Spanish, who invaded Puerto Rico in 1508, and Africans, who were initially brought to Puerto Rico to work as slaves. Taino cooking styles were mixed with ideas brought by the Spanish and Africans to create new dishes. The Spanish extended food choices by bringing cattle, pigs, goats, and sheep to the island. Africans also added to the island's food culture by introducing powerful, contrasting tastes in dishes. In fact, much of the food Puerto Rico is now famous for - coffee, coconuts, and oranges - was actually imported by foreigners to the island.

  A common assumption many people make about Puerto Rican food is that it is very spicy(辛辣的). It's true that chili peppers are popular; aij caballero in particular is a very hot chili pepper that Puerto Ricans enjoy. However, milder(微辣的) tastes are popular too, such as sofrito. As the base of many Puerto Rican dishes, sofrito is a sauce made from chopped onions, green bell peppers, sweet chili peppers, and a handful of other spices. It is fried in oil and then added to other dishes.

  36、who lived in Puerto Rico first

  A. the Taino people

  B. the Africans

  C. the Spanish

  D. the Americans

  37、In the first paragraph the word “it” refers to

  A. immigration

  B. Puerto Rican cuisine

  C. Caribbean history

  D. the island’s natural beauty

  38、what is the main idea of the second paragraph?

  A. Taino dishes are important in Puerto Rican cooking

  B. Puerto Rican cooking has many outside influences

  C. Food imported by foreigners isn’t really Puerto Rican

  D. African foods have probably had the most influence

  39、How is sofrito used?

  A. It is eaten before meals

  B. It is added to other dishes

  C. It is used where foods are too spicy

  D. It is eaten as a main dish

  40、which of the following is NOT true?

  A. Many people think Puerto Rican food is spicy

  B. Puerto Rican cuisine uses a lot of chili peppers

  C. softito is a type of extremely spicy food

  D. Aij caballero is a type of chile pepper

第三篇 From Ponzi to Madoff

  The year was l920.The country was the United States of America.The man’s name was Charles Ponzi.Ponzi told people to stop depositing money in a savings account.Instead.they should give it to him to save for them.Ponzi promised to pay them more than the bank.For example, a savings account might pay you $5 a year for every $100 you deposit.Ponzi,however,would pay you $40 a year for every $100 you gave him to hold. Many people thought this was a good plan.They began to give their money to Ponzi.

  How could Ponzi make so much money for people? This is what he did with the money people gave him:He used some of that money to pay other people who gave him money.However, he also kept a lot of the money for himself.Soon he had $250 million.This was a kind of theft, and it was against the law.The people who gave him their money didn’t think anything was wrong.Ponzi paid them every month.just like a bank.Ponzi continued this way of working for two years.Then one day, he didn’t have enough money to pay all the people.They discovered his crime.and he went to prison for fraud.

  Ninety years later, people began to hear about a businessman in New York named Bernard Mad off.People said he gave good advice about money.They said when they gave him their money.he paid them a lot more than the bank.Mad off helped hospitals, schools, and individuals earn money.Over a period of 40 years.people gave him $170 billion.However, no one investigated what he did with the money.The people who gave Madoff their money also didn’t think anything was wrong because he paid them every month.

  One day, Madoff didn’t have enough money to pay all the people he needed to pay.That’s when people discovered how Madoff worked:He was taking money from some people to pay other people,just the way Chades Ponzi did.However,this time,instead of losing millions of dollars.people lost billions.

  Madoff was accused of fraud, and United States government officials arrested him.He didn’t have to go on trial because he said he was guilty.In 2009,a judge sentenced him to 150 years in prison.Bernard Madoff’s crime was even bigger than Ponzi’s.It was the biggest fraud in history.The lesson of this story is clear:When something seems too good to be true,it probably is!

  41 For every $100,Ponzi promised to pay people .

  A $5 a year B $20 a year C $40 a year D $100 a year

  42 What did Ponzi do with the money people gave him?

  A He spent it all on things for himself.

  B He deposited it all in a bank.

  45 Why didn’t Madoff have to go on trial?

  Urban forests also have many good effects on people.They make the city more beautiful.In a crowded area,they give people a place to relax and spend time in nature. (48)

  In some countries,people are starting new urban forests.In England,there are now 1.3 million trees in an urban forest called Thames Chase,east of London.It was started in 1990,and it has grown very fast. Walking and bicycle clubs use the forest,and there are programs for children and artists. (49)

  Some older cities don't have space for a big urban forest,but planting trees on the streets makes the city better. Scientists found that commuters(通勤人员)feel more relaxed when they can see trees.Trees are even good for business.

  (50)In the future, urban forests will become even more important as our cities grow bigger.In the megacities(超大城市)of tomorrow,people will need more green space to live a comfortable life.Planting trees today will make our lives better in the future.

  A Trees take pollution out of the air.
