China news, Oct. 26---China Great Wall Society’s secretary-general Zhang Ji disclosed (透露) that the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences (CASS) would join hands with the Society to produce a 3D (三维的) picture of the Great Wall so that netizens could view its original looks.

CASS and the Great Wall Society are trying their best to make this dream come true through close cooperation.
According to Zhang, to achieve the above effects, scientists will rely on airborne (空中的) remote sensing, national geographical information system and global positioning system to collect detailed data of the Great Wall, analyze and process the data, apply them to satellite images for 3D translation, and thereafter create a 3D digital image of the Great Wall for the entire world to appreciate the really great Great Wall of China via the Internet.

Imagine landing in a foreign country where you cannot speak the language, understand the culture and don’t know anybody. Wouldn’t it be nice to have a friend who could help you out?
John Smith, an English explorer who landed in America in 1607, found the best friend ever. She was a Native American named Pocahontas (1595-1617). And she did more than teach Smith the language: she saved his life, twice.
Smith was captured by members of Pocahontas’s tribe (部落) and was going to be killed. But for some reason, the Chief’s daughter, Pocahontas, felt sorry for Smith (who was probably the first white man she had ever seen) and threw her body over his to protect him. Smith returned safely to the small village he was living in.
During the winter the English settlers did not know how to get food from nature. Pocahontas often brought food for Smith and his friends.
A year later Pocahontas’s father tried to kill Smith again because the Native Americans were very scared the English would try to take over their land. Pocahontas warned him and he was able to escape.Later she became a Christian and eventually married an Englishman named John Rolfe. She spent the last year of her life in London.
Pocahontas has become an American legend (传奇). Her life story has been re-created in many books and films, including Disney’s 1995 film, Pocahontas.
One of the reasons she is so popular is that many Europeans look at Pocahontas as an excellent example of how a minority(少数) can adjust into the majority（多数）. Pocahontas is also respected because of her selfless love. She proved that people can be kind and loving even to people of a different race or culture. John Smith was very different from Pocahontas but she could see he was a good man and that was all that mattered. No race or country owns goodness, love and loyalty.
31. What difficulties might early European settlers meet in America EXCEPT ______?
A. the fierce conflict（冲突）with Native Americans
B. bad-tempered natives who enjoyed killing
C. unfamiliarity with a foreign land
D. lack of food in winter
32. Pocahontas saved John Smith twice because ______.
A. he was the first white man she had ever seen in her life
B. she wanted to become a Christian and marry an Englishman
C. she believed in general kindness even to people of a different race
D. she was on the settlers’ side and against her cruel father
33. Which is NOT a reason for making Pocahontas a legend?
A. Her tribal background and her marriage to a white settler.
B. Her selfless help to people regarded as enemy of her tribe.
C. Her complicated life story different from common people’s.
D. The recreation of her life story in the 1995 Disney film.
34. According to the text, Europeans think Pocahontas _____.
A. was brave to break away from her own tribe
B. set a good example for other natives to accept the white settlers
C. was a selfless Christian who can love her enemy
D. was open to a more advanced culture
35. What can we infer from the passage?
A. The battles between early settlers and Native Americans resulted from their fighting for land.
B. The Europeans think the early settlers should have learned to adjust to the local cultures.
C. The creation of America is based on the settlers’ victory over the Native Americans.
D. People from different cultures can never really get along well with each other.

When my first wartime Christmas came, I was in basic training in New Jersey and not sure if I would make it home for the holiday. Only on the afternoon of December 23 was the list of men who would have the three-day holiday posted. I was one of the lucky soldiers. It was Christmas Eve when I arrived home, and a little snow had fallen. Mother opened the front door. I could see beyond her, into the corner of the living room where the tree had always stood. There were lights, colors, and ornaments (饰品) shining against the green of a pine.
"Where did it come from?" I asked.
"I asked the Gates boy to cut it," my mother said. "I wouldn't have had one just for myself, but when in great need... such a rush! He just brought it in this afternoon."
The pine reached to the proper height, almost to the ceiling, and the Tree Top Crystal（水晶）Star was in its place. A few green branches reached out a little awkwardly（难看）at the side, I thought, and there was a bit of bare trunk showing in the middle. But the tree filled the room with warm light and the whole house with the pleasant smell of Christmas.
"It's not like the one you used to find," my mother went on. "Yours were always in good shape. I suppose the Gates boy didn't know where to look for a better one. But I couldn't be fussy(挑剔的)."
"Don't worry," I told her. "It's perfect."
It wasn't, of course, but at the moment I realized something for the first time: All Christmas trees are perfect.
36. What did his mother's Christmas tree look like?
37. From the passage we can infer (推断) that ________ .
A. all the soldiers had the three-day holiday
B. the writer could not go home for Christmas
C. the writer spent his first Christmas during the war
D. not all the soldiers went home for Christmas during the war
38. From the passage, we can conclude that ________ .
A. his mother didn't like Christmas trees
B. the writer didn't like the tree cut by someone else
C. the writer used to cut very beautiful Christmas trees
D. his mother didn't want to have a Christmas tree during wartime
39. The best title for this passage would be ________ .
A. The Perfect Christmas Tree
B. How to Choose a Christmas Tree
C. How Soldiers Spent Their Christmas
D. A Christmas with an Ugly Christmas Tree
40. What does the writer mean by saying "All Christmas trees are perfect"?
A. Nothing is as perfect as Christmas.
B. Once at home, everything is so nice.
C. During the war, trees are hard to find.
D. All Christmas trees are the most beautiful.

Hydroponics(水培) is the only way that in the future we will be able to grow crops and food and at the same time sustain (维持) the earth. It is a method of growing plants using mineral nutrient solutions, without soil.
These days we are losing land at such a rapid rate that it is only a matter of time before we will run out of land to develop. If we continue to grow at such a rate, eventually the only land left to be developed will be farmland. If we use farmland to put up more apartments, then we will have no land to grow crops to survive. This is becoming a serious possibility. This is why scientists have developed another way to grow food and plants without using land.
The great thing about hydroponics growing is that anyone can do it. If you have the knowledge and the right equipment, you can do it yourself at your home. This means that individuals that live in downtown areas, and have no yard space for a garden can grow vegetables and fruits and herbs (药草) which will free them from going to the grocery store every day.
The equipment to grow plants using a hydroponics system is easy to obtain and can be easily picked up at a local store or over the Internet. They are reasonably priced and easy to use. All you have to do is to follow the insturcitons. You will soon be on your way to free groceries.
With a hydroponics system, your plants will all grow faster. This is especially good if you grow and sell them. You can expect a higher yield (出产) and they grow quickly. You can save a lot of money by using them for cooking all year round. You can also expect to have a fresh supply of high quality vegetables and green leaves on a regular basis.
41．Which of the following statements is TRUE about the future hydroponics system according to the passage?
A．Only people living in the countryside can make use of this system.
B．You will spend a lot of money and time on using this kind of system.
C．The equipment of this system can be bought from an online shop or your local shop.
D．People will not get enough food by using it ,so they will still need land to grow crops.
42．If you use a hydroponics system at your house, .
A．the plants will grow much slower than on farmland
B．you can only harvest enough plants for your kitchen use
C．you will need some other people to help you maintain it
D．you will no longer have to go to the grocery store every day
43．The underlined word “pick up” in Paragraph 4 means “_______”.
A．buy B．learn C．recover D．search
44．What would be the best title for this passage?
A．Our planet is crying.
B．Hydroponics is the future of farming.
C．The invention of the hydroponics system.
D．How to buy and use a hydroponics system.
45．We are most likely to read this passage in the _______ section of a newspaper.
A．education B．science C．politics D．business
