What do the following places have in common: the Serengeti Desert, Edinburgh's Old Town and the Monarch Butterfly Biosphere Reserve
The Serengeti Desert is in Tanzania and Kenya, Africa. It contains (包含) thousands of kilometers of dry grasslands and many rare kinds of animals.
Edinburgh's Old Town is in the capital city of Scotland. It has many old buildings and streets. There are very few new buildings in Edinburgh's Old Town.
The Monarch Butterfly Biosphere Reserve is near Mexico City in Mexico. It has beautiful flowers and forests. It is also the home of millions of butterflies in the winter.
These three places are very different. But they are all under special protection by UNESCO (联合国教科文组织). They are World Heritage Sites.
The story of World Heritage Sites began more than 3,000 years ago. At that time, the great king of Egypt built many temples. But after thousands of years, sand covered them.
Stories tell of a young boy named Abu Simbel who found the temples. One day, Abu Simbel saw something under the sand. Soon, the ancient temples of Ramses Ⅱ were officially rediscovered. But they were not safe. The government of Egypt planned to build a dam on the Nile River. It would create a large lake, which would cover the temples in water.
Many people did not want the temples destroyed. UNESCO agreed and raised 40 million dollars from around the world to save the temples. From 1964 to 1968, engineers took the temples apart in many pieces and rebuilt them hundreds of meters back from the Nile River. Today, they are called the Abu Simbel Temples, in memory of the young boy who first found them.
The effort to save the Abu Simbel Temples was a success. So in 1972, UNESCO formed the World Heritage Committee, which protects places on the earth that are of great cultural or natural value.
Any country in the world can ask for protection from UNESCO. The countries send a list of places to the World Heritage Committee. Once a year, the World Heritage Committee meets and votes on which places to protect. When they choose a place, it officially becomes a World Heritage Site.
1.What's special about Edinburgh's Old Town

3.How did people save the temples of Ramses Ⅱ?
A.By storing their pieces away.
B.By keeping them under the sand.
C.By moving them to a much safer place.
D.By preventing the government building the dam.

A.how a World Heritage Site is chosen

More and more people around the world are getting tattoos (文身). In the United States a large number of people aged 25 to 40 get tattoos. A third of all Americans between 18 and 25 have a tattoo. In Britain a fifth of all adults are tattooed. Tattooing has become an important industry as well. Today, there are more than 50,000 tattoo artists in the US alone.
Even famous people such as Angelina Jolie and David Beckham have some kind of tattoo on their bodies. According to researchers many people tattoo themselves as a sign of individuality (个性). They want to express themselves and show others who they are. Other forms of body art are also on the rise.
Today, tattoos are widely accepted in society. That hasn't always been the case. Tattoos used to be connected with criminals (罪犯), lower class people or certain groups like sailors and motorcycle gangs. While tattooing was once only for men, more and more women are now getting tattoos.
Tattooing goes way back in history. In many parts of the world, people used tattoos for different purposes. The ancient Romans tattooed their slaves. Native Americans tattooed themselves as a sign of bravery. In Nazi Germany Jews were marked with a number to tell who they were.
Not only has tattooing itself become a big industry, but removing them is also on the increase. Many people just don't realize that a tattoo lasts forever, and at some time in their lives they may want to get rid of it. The cost of tattooing yourself usually depends on how large the tattoo is or how complex (复杂的) it is. Prices are usually from a hundred to over a thousand dollars.
5.The numbers in Paragraph 1 are used to show that ________.
A.tattoos are now very popular
B.many tattoo artists are moving to America
C.young adults have a preference for tattoos
D.it is against the law to get tattoos in Britain

A.He is worried about it.
B.He is interested in it.
C.He thinks little of it.
D.He has no idea of it.
7.We can learn from the text that tattooing ________.
A.is still not accepted by women
B.usually costs a lot of money
C.is not good for our health
D.has a long history
8.It seems that the business of tattooing will ________.

三、语法填空
1.Its 考查物主代词。句意:它的设计是那时候流行的华丽风格。句中形容词性物主代词its修饰名词design,一起在句中作主语,所以要填Its。
2.making 考查非谓语动词。句意:它也是一个用黄金和珠宝装饰而成的珍宝。句中a treasure与动词decorate构成被动关系,要用过去分词短语作定语,所以要填过去分词decorated。
3.making 考查动名词短语。句意:普鲁士最好的艺术家用了十年的时间才制作好它。句中动词短语spend some time (in) doing sth意为“花费时间做某事”,动名词doing sth作介词in的宾语,所以句中要填making。
4.whom 考查定语从句。句中定语从句的先行词是Frederick William I,关系代词whom指代先行词,引导定语从句并在句中作动词短语belong to的宾语,所以要填whom。
5.In 考查固定短语。句意:作为回报,彼得大帝送给他一支由最好的士兵组成的军队。介词短语in return意为“作为回报”在句中作状语,所以要填In。
6.details 考查名词单复数。句中谓语部分是复数形式were...,说明主语是复数名词,所以要填details。
7.was completed 考查时态语态。句意:这个房间在1770年按照她要的方式完成了。本句主语the room与动词complete构成被动关系,且时间状语是过去时间,要用一般过去时的被动语态。所以要填was completed。
8.secretly 考查副词。在英语中,副词通常作状语修饰形容词、副词、动词或整个句子,而形容词通常作表语、定语修饰名词或代词。句中要用副词修饰动词“stole the room itself”,所以要填secretly。
9.a 考查不定冠词。句意:从那以后,the Amber Room所发生的事情一直是一个谜。名词mystery 意为“谜”是一个可数名词,使用不定冠词a修饰它,表示泛指,所以句中要填a。
10.Germans 考查名词复数形式。句意:最近为了庆祝圣彼得堡成立300周年,俄罗斯人和德国人修建了一间新的Amber Room。名词“Germans”意为德国人,在句中和Russians构成并列结构,所以要填Germans。
