While it often makes us think of the image of a gray-haired, older gentleman who gets o

29、ut of trouble. the intention behind the term arose from something bad. Today. the term is widely used, most notably in real estate and health insurance.But when the term was first coined in the 1890s, it referred to only one thing: voting rights. After the 15th Amendment (修正案) was carried by the US

30、Constitution in 1870 banning taking way peoples right to vote on account of race, color or previous condition of servitude(奴役)，some southern states did not readily accept the ruling. Instead, they carefully made amendments at the state level that avoided the federal law to try to keep African Americ

31、ans from accessing polling stations. Since the basis of race could no longer be used, the state amendments introduced poll taxes as well as literacy tests. These limits were powerful; close to 30 percent of all voting-age males couldnt read or write, most of whom were poor black men. But those taxes

32、 and tests would also affect poor unlearned white voters. Thus, a grandfather clause was added to allow an unlearned man to vote as long as he or his lineal ancestor (i.e., grandfather) had been a registered voter before 1867-three years before the passage of the 15th Amendment.The clauses no doubt

33、influenced the vote along racial lines, but party lines were at play too. At the time, most African Americans were Republicans (the party of Abraham Lincoln) and most whites were Democrats. The influence served to keep power in the hands of the Democrats.The phrase “grandfathered in is of course sti

34、ll widely used today without the meaning of taking away ones voting rights. But even as culture develops, whether were aware of it or not, language has the power to hold our history.8.

35、ees with new rules.C. When he is not limited by new rules.D. When he succeeds in making big money.9. What was some southern states purpose in making state amendments?A.

The protest African America staged.DUntil now, scientists havent been able to study the new rock on the moon.The new samples from Change 5 will change this. Theyre from near Mons

38、 Rmker, a volcanic mountain where the rock is thought to be much younger- about 1 billion years old.There are a lot of reasons scientists are eager to study this younger rock, one of which is that it could help us more precisely date not only the moon, but many rocky planets and other objects.Heres

39、how that works: Scientists date lunar rock by using something called a chronology curve（年代学曲线）, says Jollliff, a scientists at Washington University in St. Louis. Basically, they estimate the age of the rock by counting the number of craters（火山口） in the area the rock comes from; those increase as ob

40、jects strike the rock over time. To make this estimation, scientists need to match the number of craters to a precise age. Right now, they only have data points for lunar rock that is 3 to billion years old. Modern techniques can date the new sample extremely accurately, and once scientists know its

41、 precise age, they can add a valuable data point to their chronology curve. The dating system will also help us more accurately estimate the age of all sorts of objects in space, like rocky planets and other moons.Another reason scientists are keen to study this young volcanic rock is to find out mo

42、re about how volcanism works on the moon. Jollliff says that its unclear why there was volcanic activity on the moon for such a long period of time. Most of the moon; s volcanic activity, he says, is thought to have occurred 3 or 4 billion years ago, when the moon was still pretty young. But since t

43、he moon does not have plate structure, which drives volcanism on Earth, its unclear what could have caused much later volcanic activity. “Thats something that you can find out of the samples by studying them in the lab,” Jollliff says.12. What does the underlined word “this” in paragraph 1 refer to?

44、A. The fact of being unable to study the new rock.B. The new rock from near Mons Rmker.C. One of the reasons to study the moon;s new rock.D. The study of the moons younger rock.13. Scientists research this younger rock because they can _.A. ensure there was volcanic activity on the moon.B. more prec

45、isely date only the moon.C. date lunar rock by using a chronology curve.D. explore how volcanism works on the moon.14. What can we infer from the last paragraph?A. Scientistsare keen to study this young volcanic rock.B. Scientists cant know why volcanic activity exists on the moon.C. The moons volca

46、nic activity occurred 3 or 4 billion years ago.D. Its clear what could have caused much later volcanic activity.15What can be a suitable title for the text?A.
