Adopt-a-Highway
Hello. I'm Jan from Mrs. Lake's class. My class wants to work together to help the
public. We think we have found a great way to do this. Last month we did a class project
on the highways near our town. We learned about the Adopt-a-Highway Program. This program
brings people together to pick up litter along the roads. We think it would be a great
idea for all students in our school to join the program and adopt a highway.
Adopting a highway is not like adopting a pet. When a highway is adopted, only part
of the highway is cared for by a group of people. The group agrees to work every week to
keep its part of the highway clean. Each group gets its own sign that has the name of the
group printed on it. The sign is put up at the side of the road. This sign lets drivers
know who is keeping that area of the road clean.
The Adopt-a-Highway Program is a great way for people to help their environment look
nicer. Also, the government does not have to send out as many road workers. This saves
money. Finally, people may try harder to keep roads clean if they see people, especially
teenagers like us, cleaning them up.
We will need helpers to care for our adopted highway. If you want to feel great and
keep our roads clean, please come with your parents to the meeting next week. We will meet
in Mrs. Lake’s room on Wednesday at 6:00 P.M. At the meeting, we will talk about which
roads are the dirtiest as a result of people's unkind acts. Then we’ll try to pick an
area to adopt and clean up.
I look forward to seeing you at the meeting. Remember to keep our roads clean!
55. What is the Adopt-a-Highway Program about?
A. Giving names to the highways.
C. Picking up litter along the roads.
B. Drawing pictures of highways.
D. Putting up signs near the roads.
56. The Adopt-a-Highway Program can help____.
A. provide jobs
C. control traffic
B. build highways
D. save money
57. What should the students do first if they want to join the program?
A. Go to a meeting next Wednesday.
C. Write a letter to their parents.
B. Call Mrs. Lake next week.
D. Pick a spot to care for.
58. What is the purpose of this speech?
A. To introduce the traffic system.
B. To tell a story about adopting a pet.
C. To show drivers how to drive safely.
D. To encourage students to join the program.
C
Like detectives, archaeologists use evidence to solve mysteries. Detectives look for
clues to solve crimes. Archaeologists seek clues to help them understand how people lived
long ago. In fact, the word "archaeology" means "the study of ancient things." One type
of evidence used to learn about the past is pottery. When examining pottery, archaeologists
consider not only its appearance but what it was made of and how it was made. With this
knowledge, they can gain interesting information about people’s lives in times past.
Pottery is made by first adding water to a kind of soil called clay. When wet, clay
can be formed into shapes. It is then heated, which hardens the clay and allows it to keep
its shape. There are various kinds of clay soil. Many types of clay contain iron. Iron
gives the heated clay a reddish color. Some ancient potters tried to change this color
by adding other materials, such as charcoal and oil to make their pottery black. Others
made pot surfaces blue by adding copper.
To make clay easier to shape and heat potters use something called "temper." Various
materials can be used as temper. These materials include sand, crushed stone, and plant
fibers. An archaeologist can tell where a pot came from by the types of clay and temper
that were used. Sometimes a pot found in one location might contain materials from another
place. This can provide clues about how people traded or traveled.
Some of the earliest pots were made quite simply. A lump of clay was hollowed(挖
空) out and shaped into a bowl. It was then heated at a low temperature. The finished
pot was rough, and often undecorated. This type of pot may have been used for cooking.
Later, coiled pots were made. These were made by first rolling the clay into a long
snake shape. The coil was then wound in circles, around and upward to form a pot. The lines
of the coils were smoothed out with pieces of cloth or leather and shaped into many different
objects, like pitchers and drinking vessels. They were often decorated in various ways.
These pots were heated at high temperatures. The higher the temperature, the harder and
longer-lasting the pot. Further improvements in pottery-making developed at different
times and places. These included wheels,
fancier decorations, and better kilns(窑).
A pot's shape and decoration can provide clues about the past. Painted pictures might
show events from daily life. Archaeologists know certain shapes and styles that were common
in different times and places.
Archaeologists study the differences in types of pottery closely. Because of their
work, these everyday objects can reveal some of the mysteries of the past.
59. Archaeologists study pottery to find ________.
A. the original way of making pottery
B. how decoration styles changed
C. the development of pottery
D. what early life was like
60. This passage gives us the information about pottery EXCEPT its ________.
A. value
C. design
B technique
D. material
61. Which of the following is the order of steps for making coiled pots?
a. add temper
b. heat the pot in a kiln
c. add water to the clay
d. shape the clay into a pot
e. hollow out a lump of clay
f. roll the clay into a long piece
A. c. a, b, d
B. c, f, d. b
D. a, e, f, b
62. Which is the best title for the passage?
C. e, a. b, d
A. Important Evidences
C. Dating back in History
B. Digging up the Past
D. Historians and Ancient Pots

Last month I got the chance to take part in an underwater research project in an area
of the Gulf of Mexico called the Flower Gardens. A team of professional researchers, led
by the scientist Dr. Matt Phillips, was trying to learn more about the fish and other
creatures that live in this part of the sea. The Flower Gardens are a long way from the
shore and we spent three days on a boat.
The team used a piece of underwater equipment called a Remotely Operated Vehicle (ROV)
to collect information. The ROV could measure water depth and temperature and it also had
a camera that sent live film back to the boat. The ROV was great fun. It was controlled
by a computer on the boat, and I was allowed to operate it a few times.
However, the thing I enjoyed most was diving into the water. At first, I was quite
frightened -- mainly because I couldn't see land in any direction. But as soon as I jumped
into the water, I wasn't afraid anymore. It was amazing to see the colourful fish swimming
around and I could see all the way to the Flower Gardens, which are almost 30 metres down.
