　　A 篇

　　In 1841, a book was published which astonished the world. It was called“Incidents of Travel in Central America, Chiapas and Yucatan”. The author John Loud Stephens had just returned from a long, difficult and dangerous journey through the thick rain forest of southern Mexico and Guatemala. He had once been there with Frederick Catherwood, an architect and artist, to search for the remains of a lost civilization known as the Mayas（玛雅）.Very little was known about the Mayas at that time, but Catherwood’s drawing in the book showed incredible cities with temples, pyramids and other buildings as impressive as those of their northern neighbors, the Aztecs. These cities, however, were deserted. The inhabitants（居民）had disappeared almost a thousand years before.

　　       Since that time, far more has been learned about this remarkable civilization. The Mayas had a highly developed system of government and of agriculture, as well as an incredibly accurate system of measuring time. They were also wonderful engineers capable of moving huge blocks stone long distances and cutting them to accurate shapes and sizes.

　　       And yet although the Mayas knew about the wheel, they never used it. Neither did they use metals other than copper. What is ever more surprising is that they suddenly abandoned many of their cities and built new ones in the jungle. Some time around AD900, Mayan civilization collapsed. By the year 1200, their last great capital, Chichen Itza, was deserted.

　　       Who were these strange people and the even stranger gods they worshipped(崇拜)? What brought about their sudden and mysterious collapse? Some writers have tried to prove that the Mayas had contact with visitors from space and even that they themselves came from another planet. Some people believe that their civilization came to an end because the Mayas never developed a proper resistance to local germs and diseases. All we really know is that when the first Europeans appeared off their coast in 1517, this great and mysterious culture was only a memory.

　　46．Stephen’s book astonished the world because        .

　　       A．it was the first time people heard about Mayas

　　       B．the Mayas were excellent builders and farmers

　　       C．he had experienced so may difficulties to find this lost civilization

　　       D．it described that the Mayas used to be an advanced civilization

　　47．One of the most surprising findings about Mayas was that      .

　　       A．they developed accurate system measuring time

　　       B．they knew how to build pyramids with stones

　　       C．they deserted their cities and moved to new ones

　　       D．they built cities which they never lived in

　　48．Mayas civilization collapsed probably in       .

　　       A．a thousand years before 1841                B．around AD 900

　　       C．any year between 1200 and 1517           D．AD1200

　　49．What brought about Mayan sudden collapse?

　　      A．Tropical germs and diseases                   B．European conquest

　　       C．Mysterious force from outer space         D．No one knows for sure

　　B篇

　　The food we eat seems to have a great effect on our health. Although science has made big steps in making food more fit to eat, it has, at the same time, made many foods unfit to eat. Some research has shown that perhaps eighty percent of human illness is related to food and forty percent of cancer is related to food as well. That food is related to illness is not a new discovery. In 1945, some researchers realized that things commonly used to keep colour in meats and other food additives（添加剂）caused cancer.

　　Yet, these additives remain in our food, and it is difficult to know which things on the wrappings（包装）of foods are helpful or harmful. The additives which we eat are not all so direct. Farmers often give penicillin to their animals, and because of this, penicillin has been found in the milk of cows. Sometimes similar things are supplied to animals not for their health, but just to make a profit.

　　The farmers are simply trying to fatten the animals in order to get a higher price on the market. Although some countries have tried to control such things, the practice continues.

　　50. According to this passage, we can know      . 

　　  A. perhaps most of human illness is caused by what we eat

　　  B. perhaps most kinds of cancer are related to what people eat

　　  C. cancer was discovered in 1945

　　  D. science has made food unfit to eat

　　51. Things that are used to keep colours in meats are       .

　　  A. harmful      B. useless        C. helpless         D. dangerous

　　52. All the additives       .

　　  A. are bright and colourless          

　　  B. are not bright and colourful

　　C. have indirect effects on our health 

　　  D. have direct effects on our health

　　53. People use additives       .

　　  A. to make food more unfit to eat   

　　  B. to improve the colour and taste of the food

　　  C. to change colour of the food     

　　  D. to take off the diseases of the food

　　54. Which of the following is not true?

　　  A. Some wrappings of food are harmful.

　　  B. Farmers try to make more money on the market by fattening their animals.

　　  C. “The practice continues” means “things are still going on like that”.

　　  D. We needn’t take care of what we eat.
