No one can believe that the over 6,300 kilometer Great Wall might disappear some day. Believe it or not, the Great Wall is being destroyed by people. Less than 20 percent of the Great Wall built in the Ming Dynasty, is still perfect, but about 80 percent is in danger. The Great Wall can be called “great” mostly because of its amazing length. But we should realize that the length was made up of one brick at a time. If we do nothing to save the Great Wall, it will become a series of separate wasteland rather than a historic site.
The Great Wall is actually a series of walls built and rebuilt by different dynasties over the past 2,000 years. It began in the rule of China's first emperor, Qin Shihuang of the Qin Dynasty (221BC－206BC), and lasted into the Ming Dynasty. The parts built before the Ming Dynasty have nearly disappeared. People are familiar with sections such as Badaling in Beijing and Jiayuguan Pass in Gansu, because they have been open to tourists for many years. But those_sections_far_away_from_the_public_eyes have been almost forgotten.
Few local people knew the 3 meter high walls made of earth and stones beside them are parts of the Great Wall. The lack of knowledge is considered as one of the main reasons behind human.
The bricks on the Great Wall are carried off by countryside people to build their houses, sheep corrals and pigsties. Some were taken away to build roads. Bricks carved with people's names are put away as remembrances. The rubbish is spread over the battlements. The brick can be sold 15 yuan per tractor load. Those who destroyed and are destroying the Wall know its name, but are not clear about its cultural meaning. It will take a long time to let them know this. The local farmers not only carried off the body of the Wall but also dug out the entire base.
It is necessary to protect the Great Wall. First of all, the officials should be aware of the importance of the Great Wall. Young Chinese should know more about the nation's great civilization and learn to love it.
5.Why does the writer say the Great Wall might disappear
A．It is useless from now on.
B．It is too old to be used again.
C．It will be replaced by a new one.
D．Some parts of it are being destroyed.
6．The underlined part “those sections far away from the public eyes” (in Para.2) refers to the parts of the Great Wall ________.
A．nobody can watch
B．that are too far to be seen
C．that are too difficult to find
D．that are not well known to the public
7．What's the main reason of the Great Wall being destroyed
A．The local people sell the bricks for a living.
B．The local people are short of culture knowledge.
C．The local people think that the Great Wall is not important.
D．The local people need bricks and stones to build houses.
8．Which of the following may be the best title for this passage

As for the damage, there are many different causes. For example, the paintings in the Sistine Chapel are being damaged by people breathing onto them when they visit. __2__ That may raise the humidity (湿气) of the air and damage the paintings. Damage in other places such as the Great Wall is because of tourists climbing on delicate (脆弱的) areas. Besides, roads have also been built to help visitors climb the Wall easily. These activities can cause a lot of damage to the area.
__3__ Firstly, we have to cut down tourist numbers, because fewer visitors will result in less damage. Secondly, we should make strict rules about which areas people can visit and what they can do when they get there. __4__ People will not be allowed to walk off the paths. Visitors to indoor places can be asked to wear masks (面罩) to protect the paintings.
In short, it is necessary to control tourism at famous places. __5__ And people who live hundreds of years later will have no chance to see these great places.

B
Having a hobby is a great way to relieve stress and also a creative way to meet new people.
Hobbies are simply anything you do for fun. You aren't getting paid to do them. __6__ For a lot of people today it seems like they are only fond of watching television and surfing the Internet. That's a shame because hobbies — from rock climbing to collecting something — can have real benefits (益处)．
Hobbies often provide something that you might not get in your everyday life.__7__ They can also help you forget your daily problems and give you a lot of pleasure.
If you're adding a new thing into your life, you have to spend some time on it. __8__ We're spending a lot of time online or watching TV or just wasting time that could be spent on our hobbies.
Of course everyone is different and your personality does play a role in what sorts of hobbies you'll like. __9__ If you travel a lot, something portable (易携带的) or that you can do anywhere is helpful. If you're a homebody (恋家的人), you might love to be surrounded by a cool collection.
The truth is that you may not hit the perfect activity for you right out of the gate, but you can have a lot of fun trying out new things and exploring what's out there. __10__ You can have a try in those places. And don't be afraid to try new things, and soon you'll have a hobby that provides you with a lot of fun.
A．Do some web searches and visit the libraries.
B．You like doing them and don't care about money.
C．They allow you to do something that's just for you.
D．Ask your friends whether you can do their hobby together.
E．Think back and write down what you loved when you were young.

Though moai are whole body statues, they are commonly known as “Easter Island heads”. This is partly because of the __3__ (extreme) large size of most moai heads and partly because some of __4__ best known ones are buried up to their shoulders.

Ⅱ.语法填空
阅读下面短文，在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。
Moai are stone statues (雕像) on Easter Island. There are about 1,000 moai __1__ (place) mainly around the coast of the island; most of __2__ (they) are between 7 and 10 metres high and weigh about 12.5 tonnes. Though moai are whole body statues, they are commonly known as “Easter Island heads”. This is partly because of the __3__ (extreme) large size of most moai heads and partly because some of __4__ best known ones are buried up to their shoulders.
When, why, and how they were made is still a mystery today. It is believed that they were made almost 1,000 years ago by Polynesians, __5__ lived there at the time, to honour their ancestors and bring good luck. __6__ (move) them, they may have used wooden sledges (雪橇) or rollers or even “walked” them by rocking the moai along.
However, Erich von Daniken, a novelist, had a(n) __7__ (amaze) theory. He suggested __8__ long time ago an alien space ship broke down and the aliens were forced to land on the island. While __9__ (repair) the space ship, they had fun shaping each other in stone. This is why moai statues have such long non human looking faces. As soon as the space ship __10__ (fix), the alien visitors left, leaving some of the statues unfinished.
1．placed 设空处作后置定语，修饰“1,000 moai”，因place与1,000 moai之间是逻辑上的动宾关系，故填placed。
2．them 设空处指代上文的“1,000 moai”，且作介词of的宾语，故填them。
3．extremely 设空处作状语修饰large，故填extremely。
4．the best known是形容词最高级形式，其前应用定冠词限定，故填the。
5．who 设空处引导非限制性定语从句，补充说明Polynesians，且在从句中作主语，故填who。
6．To move 他们(波利西尼亚人)使用木雪橇或滚轴的目的是移动石像，故填To move。
7．amazing 设空处作定语修饰theory，表示“令人惊讶的”，故填amazing。
8．that 设空处引导宾语从句，作suggested的宾语，因从句结构和意义均完整，故填that。
9．repairing While与设空处构成“连词＋分词”结构，因they与repair之间是逻辑上的主谓关系，故填repairing。
10．was fixed the space ship与fix之间是被动关系，且由上下文可知，fix表示的动作发生在过去，故填was fixed。
