A.sorryB.thankful C.pityD.anxious25.Why can you find people of different races in Britain?A.Because people like to live in big cities in Britain.B.Because people from different countries have settled in Britain.C.Because Britain has attracted many tourists from all over the world.D.Because people from different countries have been invited to live there.26.What does the fourth paragraph mainly talk about?A.How Britain became a mixed race society.B.Where people get the strength to come to Britain.C.Where to find people with different hair,skin and eye colours.D.How people from different cultures live peacefully in Britain.27.Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?A.The rate of immigration to Britain increased by more than 50% from 1991 to 2001.B.In the 17th century,about 8% of the British immigrants were Africans.C.There are about 4.6 million immigrants in Britain today.D.145,000 people moved out of the UK in 2007.CImagine looking for your lost dog.You step into a cave.But instead of the dog,you find beautiful cave paintings.You see paintings of horses,deer,and bison that were drawn in black,brown,red and yellow.Your first question would probably be “Who did this?”This is what happened to four French boys in 1940.They found the Lascaux caves.The paintings the boys discovered in those caves are about 17,000 years old.They were drawn by the ancient people called Cro-Magnons.Cro-Magnons looked much like people of today.They used tools,such as fishing nets.But their art was extremely good.The main cave at Lascaux is called Great Hall of Bulls,which has a picture of bulls and horses in many colours.The largest animal is 18 feet long.There are smaller animals,such as bison,stags and a bear.There is also a strange spotted two-horned(两只角的) animal.To the left of the main cave are the most famous paintings that are the drawings of animals in many different colours.One painting is called Little Horses.On the ceiling are horses and cows.The most unusual sight may be in the Shaft of the Dead Man where there is a rhinoceros,a carefully drawn dead man,an injured bison and a bird.Why did Cro-Magnon artists do these beautiful drawings on cave walls?Did the drawings call upon some magic power?Did the Cro-Magnon people hope that the drawings would bring good luck?There is one thing the paintings seem to tell us.The Cro-Magnons were interested in the world.They looked at beauty and they understood it.28.The author uses the word “You” in paragraph 1 to . A.attract readers attentionB.make it clear that this is a true storyC.give readers good directions to find the cavesD.compare modern people with Cro-Magnon people29.Most of the drawings in the caves are about .

A.a research paperB.a cultural magazineC.a science newspaperD.a travel guideDThe traditional Chinese Longtaitou Festival,or Dragon Heads-raising Day,falls on the second day of the second lunar month every year,and recognises the start of spring and farming.This year it falls on March 8.Ancient people believed that after this day,rainfall increases because the rain-bringing Dragon King has awakened from his winter sleep.A well-known phrase goes,“Er yue er,long tai tou”,meaning,“On the second day of the second month,the dragon lifts his head.”The festival celebrates ancient agrarian Chinese culture,and while some of traditional ways to celebrate it are no longer practiced,others continue to exist.The most famous tradition is getting a haircut.Some believe that going to the barber on this day gets rid of bad luck,while others believe getting a haircut during the first month of the lunar calendar brings bad luck.Another saying warns that cutting your hair in the first month will cause your uncle to die.Although today few pay attention to it,it was once a tradition to line up outside barbershops on the day of Longtaitou.People eat tofu balls in East Chinas Fujian Province during the festival,and often make tofu and vegetable balls to pray for family and business.Fried beans are the traditional festival food for people in parts of Shandong Province.Eating chengyao cakes,which are made with sticky rice,during the festival is a tradition in Suzhou,East Chinas Jiangsu Province,owing to the saying,“If you eat chengyao on Longtaitou,your waist wont hurt all year.” Meanwhile other foods,like noodles,dumplings,and spring rolls,are named after dragon body parts to mark the day.Noodles are dragons beard (long xu),dumplings are dragons ears (long er),and spring rolls are dragons scales (long lin).32.What did ancient people believe after Dragon Heads-raising Festival?A.The dragon lifts his head.B.Theres more rainfall.C.The dragon is still sleeping.D.Theres less rainfall.33.What does the underlined word “agrarian” mean in paragraph 3?A.Agricultural.B.Industrial.C.Travelling.
