　　[单选题]In ancient times wealth was measured and exchanged in things that could be touched:food,tools,and precious metals and stones.Then the barter system was replaced by coins,which still had real value since they were pieces of rare metal.Coins were followed by fiat money,paper notes that have value only because everyone agrees to accept them.

　　Today electronic monetary systems are gradually being introduced that will transform money into even less tangible forms,reducing it to a series of”bits and bytes”,or units of computerized information,going between machines at the speed of light.Already,electronic fund transfer allows money to be instantly sent and received by different banks,companies,and countries through computers and telecommunications devices.

　　According to the passage,which of the following was the earliest kind of exchange of wealth()?

　　ABartered foods

　　BFiat money

　　CCoin currency

　　DIntangible forms

　　参考答案：A

　　Cats are creatures of habit. They like to go to sleep about the same time every day and for a certain length of time. They seem to have a natural clock inside them that tells them when to sleep.

　　Cats increase their regular sleep with occasional cat naps (打盹 ). Some experts feel that humans could also benefit from this habit. Cat naps help to build up energy in the body. They are also a good way to get rid of trouble ! Since cats have the same moods ( 情绪 ) as humans, some experts behave that people can improve their moods. People might become happier.

　　A number of famous people have copied cats by taking cat naps during the day. The naps would usually last from 15 to 30 minutes.

　　Winston Churchill took cat naps. So did Presidents Harry Truman, John F. Kennedy and Lyndon B. Johnson. These famous men were known for their energy. They were also able to work long hours, often into the night. Napping was their secret.

　　Some farmers in California are having a hard time picking their crops。There are not enough workers to help them with the harvest。

　　One farmer used to grow peaches(桃子)，but will soon grow almonds(杏仁)instead。Peaches require more labor to harvest。They are easy to be damaged and need careful hand picking。He is now removing his peach trees。Then he will plant almond trees in their places。Almonds are harvested differently。It does not take as many workers to pick them because a machine shakes the almond trees。The nuts fall on the ground and then are gathered up。The farmer does not have to hire many workers。

　　Some farmers think there are two reasons why they can’t find enough farm workers。One reason is that there are a lot of well-paid construction jobs in the area。Many people are taking these jobs instead of picking fruit。The other reason is that it has become more difficult for workers to come from Mexico into California。Fewer workers are allowed to get into the country to work on the fruit farms。To settle the problem，farmers hope the government might allow these workers to work as guests。That would help workers provide for their family and help farmers harvest their crops。When the harvest season is over they’ll go back home。Farmers say that unless things change，more fruits will come from other countries。

　　This is because labor is cheaper in those countries than in the United States。

　　What problem do some farmers have?

　　AThey have no workers to remove fruit trees.

　　BThere is little land for growing fruit.

　　CTheir crops were badly damaged last year.

　　DIt’s difficult to harvest their crops.

　　参考答案：D

　　[单选题]Nowadays everyone is so much trying to keep fit that sometimes they miss the fact there are times when they should not be exercising at all. Here you can find real reasons to stop training for a while and do not feel sorry for your laziness.

　　When you are ill

　　Do not exercise if you are not feeling well, even if it is just a cold. Workout can hurt your immune system(免疫系统)and lengthen illness. As a result, you will spend more time away from the physical activity. Training while being ill is also a main cause of other injuries since it is more difficult to focus on(专心于)what you are doing when you feel bad.

　　When you have not had enough recovering time

　　Do not rush back to your normal workout habit after you have been ill. Starting to train too early is likely to lead to a return of your symptoms(症状). When you do decide to go back to the sports ground, be sure to start your exercise slowly and with care.Even one week or so off your usual exercise can make a difference.

　　When you are tired out

　　There sometimes are days when you do not feel like going to the sports ground, and sometimes your body might be telling you to take a break. It will do you a lot of good to have a day off from your fitness classes. Go home, have a healthy meal and do not feel sorry for not being at the sports ground. Remember that sometimes you just need to relax.

　　What is suggested in the passage when you do not feel like exercising?

　　AJoin a fitness class.

　　BHave a rich meal.

　　CStay away from the sports ground.

　　DSleep for a day at home.

　　参考答案：C

　　[单选题]

　　It may be pointed out that warfare(战争) as practiced by man has no parallel in nature ,This is to say that within the more highly developed animal populations of this earth, there is not now. nor has there been similar destruction within a species(物种) itself. In fact ,one has to go to the lowliest forms of animal life, such as certain kinds of ants, to find anything comparable to human warfare. It is a curious fact that mankind appears to give the killing of his own kind a good reason by imaging that it is a "law of nature". There are now a lot of wrong ideas about the laws of nature, of which this is one of the most incorrect and fateful(致命的). Political beliefs have been based upon it with results that have come near to destroying human civilization. The theory that war is a biological necessity. that it is nature´s method of controlling population and believing in the survival(生存) of the strong and the elimination(灭亡) of the weak, is totally wrong and insupportable. Within the last century. when wars have been common all over the world ,the human population of the earth has almost doubled.

　　What does the "law of nature" mean? You can find the answer in the passage in

　　Athe first sentence

　　Bthe fourth sentence

　　Cthe seventh sentence

　　Dthe final sentence

　　参考答案：C
