21、   Stonehenge, a rock circle, is not only one of Britain’s most famous historical places but also one of its greatest mysteries (秘密). Every year it receives more than 750,000 visitors. People like to go to this place especially in June as they want to see the sun rising on the longest day of the year.

For many years, historians (历史学家) believed Stonehenge was a temple where ancient leaders tried to communicate with the gods. However, historian Paul Stoker thinks this can’t be true because Stonehenge was built so many centuries ago. “The leaders arrived in England much later,” he points out.

Another popular idea is that Stonehenge might be a kind of calendar. The large stones were put together in a certain way. On midsummer’s morning, the sun shines directly into the center of the stones. Other people believe the stones have a medical purpose. They think the stones can prevent illness and keep people healthy. “As you walk there, you can feel the energy from your feet move up your body,” said one visitor. No one is sure what Stonehenge was used for, but most agree that the position of the stones must be for a special purpose. Some think it might be a burial (埋葬) place or a place to honor ancestors (祖先). Others think it was built to celebrate a victory over an enemy.

Stonehenge was built slowly over a long period of time. Most historians believe it must be almost 5,000 years old. One of the greatest mysteries is how it was built because the stones are so big and heavy. In 2001, a group of English volunteers tried to build another Stonehenge, but they couldn’t. “We don’t really know who built Stonehenge,” says Paul Stoker. “And perhaps we might never know, but we do know they must have been hard-working-and great planners!”

【1】Visitors like to go there in ________ to enjoy ________ on the longest day of the year.

A.June; sunrise B.July; sunrise C.June; sunset D.July; sunset

【2】When was Stonehenge most likely (可能) built?

A.750,000 years ago. B.Six centuries ago. C.In 2001. D.5,000 years ago.

【3】What do most people think was Stonehenge built for?

A.Ancient leaders built it a temple to communicate with the gods.

B.It might be a kind of calendar to tell people the summertime.

C.It can prevent illness and make people feel energetic.

D.It must be for a special purpose because of the position of the stones.

【4】What aren’t people interested in about Stonehenge?

A.Who built it. B.Where it was built.

C.When it was built. D.Why it was built.

【5】What does Paul Stoker mean by “we do know they must have been hard-working-and great planners”?

A.He thinks Stonehenge is really a great mystery.

B.He has known who built Stonehenge.

C.He believes he will find out who built Stonehenge.

D.He encourages volunteers to build another Stonehenge.

22、Dear Dr Know，

My brother is going to be 11 and I am 14. My brother and I always get into fights. Whenever he does something wrong like hitting me，messing my room or taking my toys，he never gets in trouble. But when I do this kind of things，I'm always grounded and it's not fair.

I tried talking to my parents about this and all they said was that they would try harder. However，since they said this it has never happened. I don't know what to do.

But all that my dad says is to get off only for 30 minutes. I keep telling him that he can use the computer downstairs but he complains（抱怨）that he is too scared.

I've talked to my friends about this and they don't know what to say. I've tried talking to him and being nice to him but it didn't work. He just doesn't stop. He's making my life terrible！My dream is to have an understanding brother. What should I do for that？

23、In the world today, all of the people need to have fun when they are free. We can’t work all the time if we are going to keep healthy and enjoy life.

Everyone has his own way of relaxing. Perhaps the most popular form (形式) is to take part in sports. There are team sports, such as basketball and football.

24、Table manners are how to behave when you eat a meal. They include how to handle knives, forks and spoons and how to eat in a polite manner. To behave well abroad, you should know some table manners.

EATING MANNERS

Japan: It is “perfectly” okay to slurp（发出啧啧的声音）when you eat noodles. Unlike making big noises, slurping slightly is not rude. Japanese also say it tastes better if you slurp.

Russia: Your wrists（手腕）should be placed on the edge of the table while eating, fork in the left hand, and knife in the right. It is not good manners to rest them on your lap. Keep your elbows off the table. Leave some food on your plate to show that the host has given you enough to eat.

France: Never discuss money or religion over dinner. What is different from the manners in Russia is that finishing everything on your plate is considered good manners.

Mexico: Whenever you catch the eye of someone who’s eating, even a stranger, it’s good manners to say “prove Cho”. It means enjoy. In Mexico, dining is more than a meal. It’s a social occasion-lunches are seldom quick and suppers can last for hours. Where you sit is very important in the country. Before you get seated, look for place cards, or wait until the host seats you. And you must say “enjoy your meal” before you leave the table.

DRINKING MANNERS

America: If you empty a bottle into someone’s glass, it obliges（迫使）that person to buy the next bottle. It’s polite to put the last drops into your own glass.

Australia: In a pub （酒吧）, it’s usual to buy a round of drinks for everyone in your group. When it’s your turn, say “It’s my round.” When it’s their round, they will buy it for you. Don’t leave before you’ve bought a round.

Japan: Don’t fill your own glass with alcohol. Instead, you should pour for others and wait for them to do it for you.

【1】When you are at table in Mexico, you should ________.

A．keep silent if you catch the eye of a stranger

B．eat as quickly as you can to save your time

【2】According to the passage, it is good manners to

A．keep quiet when eating noodles in Japan

25、根据短文内容及所给提示，补全文中单词或用单词的正确形式填空。

Secondly, computers can work with quite a lot of information at the same time. Thirdly, they can keep information for a long t【4】. Also, computers are almost always correct.
