21、How could we tell time if there were no watches or clocks anywhere in the world?

The sun was probably the world’s first “clock”， except in the far north， where the Eskimos (爱斯基摩人) live. There， it’s dark most of the winter， and light most of the summer. But in most of the world， people have used the sun for a clock. Even today， if you don’t have a clock， you still know that when the sun shines， it’s day， and when it’s dark， it’s night. The sun can also tell you if it’s morning， noon， or afternoon.

People near the sea can tell time from the tides(潮汐). In the daytime， for about six hours， the water rises higher and higher on the beach. And then it goes down and down for about six hours. The same thing happens again at night. There are two high tides and two low tides every 24 hours.

Seamen on a ship learn how to tell time by looking at the moon and the stars. The whole sky is their clock. In some places in the world the wind comes up at about the same time every day or changes direction or stops blowing. In these places the wind can be the clock.

A sand(沙) clock is an even better clock. If you had fine dry sand in a glass shaped like the one in the picture， you would have what is called an hourglass. The sand in the hourglass goes from the top part to the bottom(底部) part in exactly one hour. When people turn over the hourglass， the sand will take another hour to go back again.

【1】How many ways does the passage show us to tell time including the watches and clocks?

A. 9 B. 4   C. 7   D. 5

【2】The Eskimos in the far north can’t use the sun for a clock because ______.

A. They know very little about the sun

B. The sun there never goes down in winter

C. It’s too cold for them to go out to watch the sun

D. It has long dark winters and long light summers

【3】The writer thinks ______.

A. there are no more than two tides in a day

B. a sand clock is a better clock than the tide

C. only the moon is a good “clock” for seamen

D. the wind can be a clock all over the world

【4】In which column(栏目) of a newspaper can you most probably read this passage?

A. Science.   B. News.

C. Advertisements.  D. Sports.

22、Sometimes, we remember our childhood neighborhood just as well, or even better than, our childhood homes. For both children and grown—ups, neighborhoods are a place to play, learn, and keep in mind.

In most parts of Canadian suburbs (市郊), almost everyone on the block(街道) knows each other. Coming home together on the bus is usually just the beginning of neighboring children spending time together. Whether it’s playing soccer or running after each other around on bikes, kids often take advantage of the daylight to get some fresh air outside. When it’s hot, children can swim in a pool together. And when it’s cold, they can have snowball fights with one another.

Grown—ups also take advantage of living in a community by taking care of their neighbors. It’s convenient for neighbors to become friends because they live so close together. Neighbors will often help to look after their babies or pets.

If someone holds a party, neighbors might lend some space for guests to park their cars in. And if a postman mixes up the mail, neighbors are more than happy to return it back to its owner.

Having kind and caring neighbors can make a world of difference in how a person thinks of their home. To some people, a home may not be just the house they live in, but also the community they are a part of. Neighborhoods, just like homes, come in all different shapes and sizes. Some neighbor—hoods may have over 100 people, while others may only have a few people. But whatever the size, neighborhoods can be a powerful and memorable part of our lives, filled with neighbors well always remember.

【1】How do neighboring children begin to spend time together?

A．

B．

C．

D．

【2】What’s the meaning of the underlined word “convenient” in Paragraph 3?

A．体贴的

B．困难的

C．舒服的

D．便利的

【3】What will the neighbors do if a postman mixes up the mail?

A．Leave it alone.

B．Lend some space.

C．Return it back to its owner.

D．Fight with one another.

【4】What is the main idea of the passage?

A．Making friends with your neighbors is easy.

B．Having nice neighbors makes no difference.

C．Neighborhoods are an important part of life.

D．Most Canadians love living in small communities.

【5】What may be the structure(结构) of the passage?

A．

B．

C．

D．
