FROM PROBLEMS TO SOLUTIONS
Ecnmic develpment is necessary if we want t imprve sciety. There cmes a time
when the ld must give way t the new, and it is nt pssible t preserve everything frm ur past as we mve twards the future. Finding and keeping the right balance between prgress and the
prtectin f cultural sites can be a big challenge.
Big challenges, hwever, can smetimes lead t great slutins. In the 1950s, the Egyptian gvernment wanted t build a new dam acrss the Nile in rder t cntrl flds, prduce
electricity, and supply water t mre farmers in the area. But the prpsal led t prtests. Water frm the dam wuld likely damage a number f temples and destry cultural relics that were an imprtant part f Egypt’s cultural heritage. After listening t the scientists wh had studied the prblem, and citizens wh lived near the dam, the gvernment turned t the United Natins fr help in 1959.
A cmmittee was established t limit damage t the Egyptian buildings and prevent the lss f cultural relics. The grup asked fr cntributins frm different departments and raised funds
within the internatinal cmmunity. Experts investigated the issue, cnducted several tests, and then made a prpsal fr hw the buildings culd be saved. Finally, a dcument was signed, and the wrk began in 1960.
The prject brught tgether gvernments and envirnmentalists frm arund the wrld.
Temples and ther cultural sites were taken dwn piece by piece, and then mved and put back
tgether again in a place where they were safe frm the water. In 1961, German engineers mved the first temple. Over the next 20 years, thusands f engineers and wrkers rescued 22 temples and cuntless cultural relics. Fifty cuntries dnated nearly $80 millin t the prject.
When the prject ended in 1980, it was cnsidered a great success. Nt nly had the
cuntries fund a path t the future that did nt run ver the relics f the past, but they had als learnt that it was pssible fr cuntries t wrk tgether t build a better tmrrw.
The spirit f the Aswan Dam prject is still alive tday. Perhaps the best example is shwn
by UNESCO, which runs a prgramme that prevents wrld cultural heritage sites arund the wrld frm disappearing. If a prblem seems t difficult fr a single natin, the glbal
cmmunity can smetimes prvide a slutin.
24 ．Why is it difficult t keep the right balance between prgress and the prtectin f cultural sites?
A ．The ld must give way t the new because f ecnmic develpment.
B ．The gvernment damages the cultural sites n purpse.
C ．The gvernment allws ther cuntries t damage the cultural sites.
D ．The cultural sites may be damaged by natural disasters.
25 ．Which is NOT the reasn why the Egyptian gvernment wanted t build a new dam in the 1950s?
A ．T benefit the area by cntrlling flds.
B ．T prduce electricity.
C ．T supply water t mre farmers in the area.
D ．T prtect cultural relics.
26 ．What can be learned frm the Aswan Dam prject?
A ．UNESCO is an imprtant rganizatin in the wrld.
B ．The cperatin can slve difficult prblems.
C ．The Egyptian gvernment fund a plan t build a better tmrrw.
D ．All the cultural relics were saved in the prject.
27 ．Which wrd d yu think can describe the prject?
A ．Successful. B ．Negative.
C ．Useless. D ．Dubtful.

Scientists frm the University f Otag’s Christchurch Medical Schl have discvered a
direct cnnectin between peple’s vitamin C intake and their skin’s ability t prduce cllagen
(胶原蛋白)and renew itself. The study, published in the Jurnal f Investigative Dermatlgy,
clearly shws that skin health is influenced by vitamin C frm daily fd, nt just by tpical (外用的)creams applied t the skin surface. It als fund that vitamin C levels in the skin are clsely
related t thse in the bld. Therefre, eating mre fds rich in vitamin C can effectively increase vitamin C levels in bth the bld and the skin.
The research included 24 healthy adults frm New Zealand and Germany. Thse eating tw SunGld kiwifruits daily raised bld vitamin C levels and saw a clear increase in skin vitamin C. This made skin thicker — due t mre cllagen — and sped up uter skin renewal. Lead
researcher Prfessr Margreet Vissers described the results as surprising and said the strng cnnectin between skin thickness and vitamin C intake is fully believable.
She nted the cnnectin between bld and skin vitamin C is clearer than in ther rgans. “We were surprised by hw clsely bld vitamin C levels are cnnected t thse in the skin,” she said. The research team als discvered that vitamin C in the bld can reach all layers f the skin and help the skin wrk better. Thugh vitamin C is ften added t skincare prducts, it is nt well taken in thrugh the uter skin. Hwever, skin cells can take in vitamin C frm the bld very
well.
SunGld kiwifruits were chsen fr the study because they always have a high vitamin C
cntent. But the researchers believe ther fds rich in vitamin C, such as ranges and berries, can bring similar benefits t the skin. It is imprtant t keep steady vitamin C levels in the bld
because the human bdy des nt stre vitamin C fr a lng time. Prfessr Vissers suggested that healthy peple can reach the best bld vitamin C levels with abut 250mg f vitamin C every
day thrugh their diet.
28 ．What affects skin health accrding t the study?
A ．Water taken in by the skin. B ．Vitamin C frm fd intake.
C ．Cllagen frm skin prducts. D ．Tpical skincare creams alne.
29 ．What is Prfessr Vissers’ attitude twards the study results?
A ．Dubtful. B ．Apprving. C ．Uncncerned. D ．Objective.
30 ．Why are vitamin C-rich skincare prducts less effective?
A ．They lack enugh cllagen.
B ．They are nt used in a prper way.
C ．They dn’t suit all skin types.
D ．They are prly taken in thrugh skin.
31 ．What is the best title fr the passage?
A ．Vitamin C Intake and Skin Health
B ．Bld Vitamin C and Skin Vitamin C
C ．Skincare Prducts and Vitamin C Intake
D ．Cllagen Prductin and Skin Thickness

Histry, as it is studied tday, begins with the earliest civilizatins which left visual and
literary evidence which histrians can cllect, analyse and interpret. Western histrians begin with the Mesptamians, the Ancient Egyptians, and especially the Ancient Greeks. These might be the first civilizatins t prduce cmplex texts, art and architecture t which we still have sme access in the twenty-first century.
Histrians study the surce evidence left by the peple f these perids in rder t
understand wh, hw, why and what they were. We are then taught t frm different
interpretatins by ther histrians within ur wn theries and research t create a balanced,
infrmed and analytical article, bk r dcumentary. The article must remain dispassinate and aim twards bjectivity, remving any subjective prejudice (主观成见) which might emerge
befre and during research.
Hwever, it is t limited, and it can paint a false picture f the past t bth prfessinal
and recreatinal readers by fcusing t narrwly n certain events r individuals and cmpletely ignring ther seemingly less imprtant events r individuals thrugh a lack f either evidence r interest. Histry as a series f events cvers the lives f billins f peple frm every cuntry fr thusands f years. Each individual’s actins and everyday life, frm their birth until their death, is histry, and wrthy f study in its wn right.
Furthermre, t be bjective in an histrical essay, ne must be separated frm ne’s study, having n emtinal reactin t the evidence and maintaining a tlerance and relativity t
histrical cntext, s that the evidence will nt be destryed by mdern prejudice.
Hwever, abslute separatin, whether thrugh attempted bjectivity r distance f time, is useless t histrical study. Pure bjectivity can never be realized as we are all highly subjective, emtinal beings, and what we write will always reflect this: it is what makes us human, and
humanity is what we study.
32 ．Hw did the earliest civilizatins help histrians?
A ．By recrding analytical skills. B ．By prviding first-hand materials.
C ．By presenting high-quality wrks. D ．By simplifying histrical research.
33 ．What are histrians expected t d in their writing?
A ．Express their private thughts penly. B ．Fcus n recent events and mdern times.
C ．Keep persnal feelings ut f their wrks. D ．Cpy thers’ ideas int their wn articles.
34 ．Why is pure bjectivity criticized accrding t the text?
A ．It ignres events with n significance. B ．It cuts the ties between certain events.
C ．It shws an unclear image f the past. D ．It acts against human beings’ nature.
35 ．What can be a suitable title fr the text?
A ．Subjectivity: A Threat t Old Civilizatins
B ．Subjectivity: A Necessity fr Histrical Study
C ．Histry: The Stry f Everyne and Everyday Life
D ．Histry: The Subject Affected by Scial Envirnment

albums when my hand tuched a dusty vilin bx hidden behind winter jackets. When I pened it,
the vilin brught back memries f nights when Dad used t play sft sngs fr me after wrk. Nw, the vilin’s strings hung lse, and its nce-shiny wd lked ld after years f being
unused.
Dwnstairs, Dad’s key turned in the lck right at 6:15 pm. His wrk bts left dirty marks n the drmat. I saw him rubbing (揉) his right hand — he’ d hurt it last winter when he was at wrk. He lked up at the attic stairs. “Did yu find anything cl up there?” he asked, his rugh fingers tapping ut a tune (旋律) n the kitchen table. “Dad, it’s nthing imprtant really, just
sme ld stuff up there!” I said.
Dad stpped ging fr his music schlarship when Mm gt really sick. He went frm
playing in cncerts t wrking in a factry. Every birthday, he’d say, “Maybe next year,” but then he’d quietly add, “after we pay the hspital bills.” It hit me that his dream wasn’t gne, but just
silenced.
My mind raced with a fld f thughts. Here was this vilin, nce a symbl f Dad’s
passin and talent, nw gathering dust in the attic. And here was Dad, his wn dream f music
buried beneath the weight f family respnsibilities, his hand still aching frm the injury that had kept him away frm his true passin.
A wave f determinatin washed ver me. I culdn’t change the past, but I culd d
smething abut the present. I culd fix up this vilin, nt just as a physical restratin (修复), but as a symbl f hpe and a bridge t recnnect Dad with his frgtten dreams.

Dermatlgy, clearly shws that skin health is influenced by vitamin C frm daily fd, nt just
by tpical (外用的)creams applied t the skin surface.(这项发表在《皮肤病学研究杂志》上的研究明确表明，皮肤健康受日常食物中维生素 C 的影响，而不仅仅是涂抹在皮肤表面的外用乳膏。)”可知，研究显示食物摄入的维生素 C 会影响皮肤健康。故选 B 项。
29 ．推理判断题。根据第二段中的“Lead researcher Prfessr Margreet Vissers described the results as surprising and said the strng cnnectin between skin thickness and vitamin C intake is fully believable.(首席研究员 Margreet Vissers 教授称这些结果令人惊讶，并表示皮肤厚度与维生素 C 摄入之间的密切关联完全可信。)”可知，她对研究结果持认可态度。故选 B 项。

Medical Schl have discvered a direct cnnectin between peple’s vitamin C intake and their skin’s ability t prduce cllagen (胶原蛋白)and renew itself.(奥塔哥大学基督城医学院的科学家发现，人们摄入的维生素 C 与皮肤产生胶原蛋白和自我更新的能力之间存在直接联系。)”以及全文内容可知，文章主要围绕维生素 C 摄入与皮肤健康之间的关系展开，所以 A 选项“Vitamin C Intake and Skin Health(维生素 C 摄入与皮肤健康)”是最佳标题。故选 A 项。

research.(这篇文章必须保持客观冷静，力求做到客观公正，要摒弃在研究之前及研究过程中
可能出现的任何主观偏见)”可知，历史学家在写作时应该将个人情感排除在作品之外。故选C。
34 ．细节理解题。根据最后一段“Pure bjectivity can never be realized as we are all highly
subjective, emtinal beings, and what we write will always reflect this: it is what makes us
human, and humanity is what we study.(纯粹的客观性永远不可能实现，因为我们都是高度主观的、情绪化的生物，我们写的东西总是反映出这一点：它使我们成为人类，人性是我们研究的对象)”由此可见，人类的本质决定了历史研究不可能是纯粹客观的。故选 D。
35．主旨大意题。第一段是引入研究背景；第二段通过不同历史学家的见解引出客观性这一问题；第三段讲述的是过度强调客观性的危害，即导致我们忽视那些看似不重要的事件或人物；第四段从人的本质角度解释了纯粹的客观性不会实现的原因。由此可见，文章讲述了历史研究工作并非纯粹客观的，会受到研究者自身主观心态和所处环境的影响。B 项“主观性：历史研究的必要性”为最佳标题。故选 B。

38 ．根据后文“When yu make prper study habits a part f yur daily rutine, it can increase
.

cnnectins between ideas n yur mind map.(在你的思维导图中，你可以使用不同的线条、颜色、箭头、分支或其他方式来展示脑海中各想法之间的联系)”可知，本段介绍思维导图制作方法，前句说“从中心概念发散相关想法”，A 项“然后为相关想法添加更多要点”是后续操作步骤，衔接自然。故选 A。
