　　Getting rid of dirt, in the opinion of most people, is a good thing. However, there is nothing fixed about attitudes to dirt.

　　In the early 16th century, people thought that dirt on the skin was a means to block out disease, as medical opinion had it that washing off dirt with hot water could open up the skin and let ills in. A particular danger was thought to lie in public baths. By 1538, the French king had closed the bath houses in his kingdom. So did the king of England in 1546. Thus began a long time when the rich and the poor in Europe lived with dirt in a friendly way. Henry IV, King of France, was famously dirty. Upon learning that a nobleman had taken a bath, the king ordered that, to avoid the attack of disease, the nobleman should not go out.

　　Though the belief in the merit of dirt was long-lived, dirt has no longer been regarded as a nice neighbor ever since the 18th century. Scientifically speaking, cleaning away dirt is good to health. Clean water supply and hand washing are practical means of preventing disease. Yet, it seems that standards of cleanliness have moved beyond science since World War Ⅱ. Advertisements repeatedly sell the idea: clothes need to be whiter than white, cloths ever softer, surfaces to shine. Has the hate for dirt, however, gone too far?

　　Attitudes to dirt still differ hugely nowadays. Many first-time parents nervously try to warn their children off touching dirt, which might be responsible for the spread of disease.On the contrary, Mary Ruebush, an American immunologist(免疫学家)，encourages children to play in the dirt to build up a strong immune system. And the latter position is gaining some ground.

　　1. The kings of France and England in the 16th century closed bath houses because

　　.

　　A. they lived healthily in a dirty environment.

　　B. they thought bath houses were too dirty to stay in

　　C. they believed disease could be spread in public baths

　　D. they considered bathing as the cause of skin disease

　　2.Which of the following best describes Henry IV’s attitude to bathing?

　　A. Afraid.

　　B. Curious.

　　C. Approving.

　　D. Uninterested.

　　3. How does the passage mainly develop?

　　A. By providing examples.

　　B. By making comparisons.

　　C. By following the order of time.

　　D. By following the order of importance.

　　4. What is the author’s purpose in writing the passage?

　　A. To stress the role of dirt.

　　B. To introduce the history of dirt.

　　C. To call attention to the danger of dirt.

　　D. To present the change of views on dirt.

　　　第二篇是应用文，是一份海报，关于国家公园的介绍以及征募会员介绍，话题和学生的生活有比较大的距离感，但是词汇未超出课标范围，学生完全可以通过信息的提炼分析答案。

　　60.推理题。 要注意题目问的是discouraged by…, 通过文章第三大标题Activities第二段第一句we keep an eye on planning applications…such as massive leisure complexes可以推断出选A是Friends所不支持的，为正确选项。

　　61.细节题。根据题干，定位到第四大标题Benefits.从第五点”Satisfaction of participation in work parties, for those willing and able to involve.”可以看出选项C为正确选项。

　　62.主旨题。 文章一开头就抛出三个问题，可见这个组织的目的在于吸引更多的人能够加入其中，B为正确选项。由文章第二大标题Aims中的” we are a voluntary organization…”可见A 选项错误。C，D选项都是文章没有提到的。
