Dancing antelopes
Long ago many African people did not
write down their histories.They remembered
things from the past by singing songs,dan-
cing,acting,and telling stories-and by making
works of art.
In Mali,a group of people called the Ba-
mana believed that long ago,a special being
called Chiwara used magical powers to teach
the people to farm.To remember their ances-
tors and to honor the powers of Chiwara,Ba-
mana artists carved tall wooden figures shaped
like antelopes,designed to be worn on top of
the head.During planting and harvest festivals,
young men hid their bodies under costumes,
wore these tall headdresses,and performed a
dance like leaping antelopes.The dance told
the story of Chiwara.
Bamana artists didn't try to make their
sculptures look exactly like real antelopes.In-
18
stead,they suggested the shape of the an-
telope's body with big,thick curves.
Sculptures in clay and bronze
The Yoruba people of West Africa lived
in the city of Ife.From about AD 1000 to
1500,artists in Ife carved beautiful sculptures.
Ife sculptures are made of brass (a me-
tal)and terra cotta (red clay baked in a hot
fire).Ife sculptors made sculptures that looked
like real people,with delicate features,serious
expressions,and eyes that stare straight ahead.
To make this brass head,the sculptor first
shaped the head,using a mixture of sand and
clay.He covered it with a thin layer of
beeswax(蜂蜡).Next,using a knife made of
bone,he carved the details of the face into the
beeswax,then covered it all with a thin layer
of clay.When he put the sculpture on a hot
fire,what do you think happened?The
beeswax melted and flowed away,leaving a
thin hollow space between two face-shaped
shells of clay.The sculptor then poured hot
melted brass into the space.What remained
was this brass sculpture.
(
)24.According to the text,ancient
African people made artworks to
A.decorate their homes
B.record their histories
C.entertain themselves
D.celebrate festivals
()25.How did the Bamana remember
Chiwara?
A.They dressed as Chiwara.
B.They danced wearing antelope
headdresses.
C.They made costumes in the way
Chiwara had taught them.
D.They passed the story of Chi-
wara down to each new genera-
tion.
)26.The last paragraph is mainly about
A.the materials used to make the
sculptures
B.the principle of making the
sculptures
C.the tools used to make the
sculptures
D.the process of making the
sculptures
()27.What do Mali and Ife sculptures
have in common?
A.Both of them are shaped with
big,thick curves.
B.Both of them are examples of
African art.
C.Both of them can be worn by
people.
D.Both of them represent real

What will people die of 100 years from
now?If you think that is not a simple ques-
tion,you have not been paying attention to the
revolution that is taking place in bio-technology
(生物技术).With the help of new medicine,.
the human body will last a very long time.
Unt2检测卷。
Death will come mainly from accidents,mur-
der and war.Today's leading killers,such as
heart disease,cancer,and aging itself,will be-
come distant memories.
In discussion of technological changes,
the Internet gets most of the attention these
days.But the change in medicine can be the
real technological event of our times.How
long can humans live?Human brains were
known to decide the final death.Cells are the
basic units of all living things,and until re-
cently,scientists were sure that the life of cells
could not go much beyond 120 years because
the basic materials of cells,such as those of
brain cells,would not last forever.But the up-
per limits will be broken by new medicine.
Sometime between 2050 and 2100,medicine
will have advanced to the point at which every
10 years or so,people will be able to take
medicine to repair their organs.The medicine,
made up of the basic building materials of life,
will build new brain cells,heart cells,and so
on-in much the same way our bodies make
new skin cells to take the place of old ones.
It is exciting to imaging that the advance
in technology may be changing the most basic
condition of human existence,but many tech-
nical problems still must be cleared up on the
way to this wonderful future.
()28.According to the passage,human
death is now mainly caused by
A.diseases and aging
B.accidents and war

A.medicine
B.the Internet
C.brain cells
D.human organ
()30.Humans may live longer in the
future because
A.heart disease will be far away
from us
B.human brains can decide the
final death
C.the basic materials of cells will
last forever
D.human organs can be repaired
by new medicine
()31.We can learn from the passage that
A.human life will not last more
than 120 years in the future
B.humans have to take medicine

C.much needs to be done before

Why do you play games?Because they
are fun,and a lot more besides.Following the
rules,planning your next move,acting as a
team member,.these are all“game”ideas that
you will come across throughout your life.
20
Think about some of the games you
played as a young child,such as rope-jumping
and hide-and-seek.Such games are entertain-
ing and fun.But perhaps more importantly,
they translate life into exciting dramas that
teach children some of the basic rules they
will be expected to follow the rest of their
lives,such as taking turns and cooperating
(合作).
Many children's games have a practical
side.Children around the world play games
that prepare them for work they will do as
grown-ups.For instance,some Saudi Arabian
children play a game called bones,which
sharpens the hand-eye coordination(协调)
needed in hunting.
Many sports encourage national or local
pride.The most famous games of all,the
Olympic Games,bring athletes from around
the world together to take part in friendly
competition.People who watch the event wave
flags,knowing that a gold medal is a win for
an entire country,not just the athlete who
earned it.For countries experiencing natural
disasters or war,an Olympic win can mean so
much.
Sports are also an event that unites people:
Soccer is the most popular sport in the world.
People on all continents play it-some for fun
and some for a living.Nieolette Iribarne,a
Californian soccer player,has discovered a
way to spread hope through soccer.He created
a foundation to provide poor children with not
only soccer balls but also a promising future.
Next time you play your favorite game or
sport,think about why you enjoy it,what
skills are needed,and whether these skills will
help you in other aspects of your life.
()32.Through playing hide-and-seek,
children are expected to learn to
A.be a team leader
B.obey the basic rules
C.act as a grown-up
D.predict possible danger
()33.The underlined part in Paragraph
2 most probably means that games
can
A.describe life in an exciting way
B.turn real-life experiences into a
play
C.make learning life skills more
interesting
D.change people's views of sport-
ing events
()34.According to the passage,why is
winning Olympic medals so en-
couraging?
A.It inspires people's deep love
for the country
B.It proves the exceptional skills
of the winners.
C.It helps the country out of na-
tural disasters.
D.It earns the winners fame and
fortune
()35.What can be inferred from the
passage?
Unt2检测卷。
A.Games benefit people all their
lives.
B.Sports can get all athletes to-
gether.
C.People are advised to play
games for fun.
D.Sports increase a country's
competitiveness.

How to be happy?
Isn't happiness what we all really want?
If we are happy,we can pass our happiness to
the people around us,too.Here are a few
pieces of advice on how to become a happy
person or at least a little happier than we are
now.
Join a club or social circles.Most happy
people have a good number of close friends in
their lives.If you don't have many friends,try
joining a club that holds your interests.Talk to
people and listen to what they're talking
about.Make new friends so that you will
always have someone to care about you.
36
Try to find something to do.When your
day is filled with things to do,it gives you the
reason to get up in the morning.37
Usually people feel happier when they have
things to do.Those who are busier seem to be
much happier than those who have too much
time on their hands.

38 Being thankful for the things that
you have will make you feel more satisfied.
For example,you may not have a big house,
but you do have a good family.If you feel
you have nothing to be grateful for,be
thankful for your ability to read,to see or to
hear.
39 A good joke can often make
someone feel good about life.Find a few
jokes and remember them.Tell these jokes to
the people you know.40 Try to find
something to laugh about each day.
A.Learn to express your thanks.
B.Share a joke with other people.
C.Laughter is certainly a key to happiness.
D.Send a thank-you letter to one of your
best friends.
E.Everything is good when new,but friends
when old.
F.Friends can add fun and excitement to
your life as well.
G.You will feel more of a sense of accom-
plishment(成就)at the end of the day.

Monty Roberts owns a horse ranch in San
Francisco.He is willing to help the young who
want to pursue their dreams.We were always
curious about the reason behind and one day
he told us his story.
When Monty was young,he was the son
of an itinerant horse trainer who would go
from stable to stable,race track to race track,
farm to farm and ranch to ranch,training
horses.As a result,his high school career was
continually interrupted.When he was a senior,
he was asked to write a paper about what he
wanted to be and do when he grew up.
That night he wrote a seven-page paper
describing the goal of owning a horse ranch
some day.He wrote about his dream in great
detail and he even drew a diagram of a 200-
acre ranch,showing the location of all the
buildings,the stables and the tracks.Then he
drew a detailed floor plan for a 4,000-square-
foot house that would sit on a 200-acre dream
ranch.
He put a great deal of his heart into the
project and the next day he handed it in to the
24
teacher.Two days later he received his paper
back.On the front was a large red F with a
note that read,“See me after class.”The boy
with the dream went to see the teacher after
class and asked,"Why did I receive an F?"
The teacher said,"This is an unrealistic
dream for a young boy like you.You have no
money.You come from an itinerant family.
You have no resources.Owning a horse ranch
requires a lot of money.You have to buy the
land.You have to pay for the original bree-
ding stock and later you'll have to pay large
stud(种马)fees.There's no way you could
ever do it..”Then the teacher added,“If you
rewrite this paper with a more realistic goal,I
will reconsider your grade."
Paragraph 1:
The boy went home and thought about it
long and hard.
Paragraph 2:

Dear Peter,
I'm glad to receive your letter asking for my advice
on how to learn Chinese well.Here are a few suggestions.
First,it is important to take a Chinese course,as you'll be
able to learn from the teachers and practise with your fel-
low students.Then,it also helps to watch TV and read
books,newspapers,and magazines in Chinese whenever
possible.Besides,it should be a good idea to learn and sing
Chinese songs.In addition,You can also make more Chi-
nese friends.They will tell you a lot about China and help
you learn Chinese.Try writing to me in Chinese next time.
