第一节 完形填空(共15小题;每小题2分,满分30分)
As is known, there w ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )as a time when women used to be regarded as weakers. As long as a lady got onto a crowded autobus, a gentleman would immediately rise and __1__ her his seat. But now things are __2__. Today it is most likely that a gentleman will stare at the scenery out of the window, or, if he feels a bit shy, __3__behind his newspaper. Either way, the lady will have to stand until someone else __4__.
You can't __5__ blame ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) men for this change in manners, though.__6__ are the days when women could be __7__ as weakers without making any trouble. A whole generation of women has grown up __8__ equality with men: not just equality in jobs or education, but in social life. __9__ a door open for some women and you are __10__ to get an angry lecture on treating women as weakers who are __11__ to open doors for themselves. Take a girl out for a meal and she'll probably insist on paying her __12__ of the bill. One second thoughts, that is perhaps not a bad idea.
It's no wonder, then, ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) that men have given up some ways of politeness and __13__ that they show towards women. On the other hand, men's active politeness is perhaps slowly being__14__ by true consideration for the needs and feelings of women, so that men can see women as equal humans,__15__ as weakers or something that can be used to please men.
Maybe it is worth women's effort while to stand in the bus or train.

A Tour City—Pompeii
Every year t ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )housands of tourists visit Pompeii,Italy.They see the sights that Pompeii is famous for its stadium(运动场)and theatres,its shops and restaurants.The tourists do not,however,see Pompeii's people.They do not see them because Pompeii has no people.No one has lived in Pompeii for almost 2,000 years.
Once,Pompeii was a ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )busy city of 22,000 people.It lay at the foot of Mount Vesuvius,a grass-covered volcano(火山).Mount Vesuvius had not erupted(喷发)for centuries,so the people of Pompeii felt safe.But they were not.【来源:21·世纪·教育·网】
In August of AD 79, ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )Mount Vesuvius erupted.The entire top of the mountain exploded,and a huge black cloud rose into the air.Soon stones and hot ash began to fall on Pompeii.When the eruption ended two days later,Pompeii was buried under 20 feet of stones and ashes.Almost all of its people were dead.  21*cnjy*com
For centuries,Pom ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )peii lay buried under stone and ash.Then,in the year 1861,an Italian scientist named Ginseppe began to uncover Pompeii.Slowly,carefully,Ginseppe and his men dug.The city looked almost the same as it had looked in AD 79.There were streets and fountains,houses and shops.There was a stadium with 20,000 seats.Perhaps the most important of all,there were everyday objects,which tell us a great deal about the people who lived in Pompeii.Many glasses and jars had some dark blue colour in the bottom,so we know that the people of Pompeii liked wine.They liked bread too.Metal bread pans were in every bakery.In one bakery there were 81 round,flat loaves of bread—a type of bread that is still sold in Italy today.Tiny boxes filled with a dark,shiny power tell us that women liked to wear eye-makeup.21教育名师原创作品
Ginseppe has died,bu ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )t his work continues.One-fourth has not been uncovered yet.Scientists are still digging,still making discoveries that draw the tourists to Pompeii.21*cnjy*com
26.Why do large numbers of people come to Pompeii each year
A.To visit the volcano.
B.To shop and eat there.
C.To watch sports and plays.
D.To see how Pompeiians lived.
27.Why had so many people remained by volcanic Mount Vesuvius
A.The city nearly offered all kinds of fun.
B.The area produced the finest wine in Italy.
C.Few people expected the volcano to erupt again.
D.The mountain was beautiful and covered with grass.
28.Why did the cit ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )y uncovered look almost the same as it had looked in AD 79
A.Because Ginseppe and his men dug it slowly and carefully.
B.Because the city was buried alive and remained untouched.
C.Because scientist ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )s successfully rebuilt the city with everyday objects.
D.Because nobod ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )y had lived in the city ever since the volcano erupted.
29.What's the meani ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ng of the underlined word“exploded”in the third paragraph

A.They lived more or less the same as Italians now do.21cnjy.com
B.They liked women wearing all kinds of makeup.

D.They went back to Pompeii after the eruption in AD 79.

Falkland Island Wolve ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )s were the largest land mammal that has died out in the last 200 years.These unique creatures were not like the wolf found in North America but were quite different.It is only recently that the true facts behind this species have been found out.
Being on the s ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )outhern tip of South America the Falkland Islands received few visitors.Thus even though the first sighting of the wolves was in the year 1692,they remained very common and tame until the settlers that finally settled on the Falklands viewed the wolves as a pest and organized attempts to poison and kill them.The last Falkland Island Wolf was shot by a hunter in 1876.
The Falkland Island ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )s lie about 500 miles from the mainland of South America.This prevents the spread of many species to it.This allowed the wolf to develop quickly and have no innate fear of humans since they had no contact with man.They were the top predators(食肉动物)in their environment and as such unafraid of anything.
But how did the wol ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )f make it to the islands?Many theories have been put forward but most biologists find the following two the most possible.First, there is the theory that former human inhabitants who had died or left brought the wolves to the islands.Others support the theory that the wolves found their way to the islands from a land bridge or floating ices.Recent further examinations showed that the closest relative of the Falkland Island Wolf separated from them about 6.7 million years ago.This puts the two species in North America due to the fact that canid(犬科动物)fossils have only been found in the Falkland Islands from around 3 million years ago.This gives a heavy blow to the human transportation theory due to the fact that humans have only been concretely documented in South America since around 62,000 years ago.
Humanity seldom real ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )izes they have lost something special until it is already gone.This is the case of the Falkland Island Wolf.
31.What do we learn about Falkland Island Wolves
A.They were like the wolves in North America.
B.They died out because of the destroyed environment.
C.They weren't like modern wolves and they were tame.
D.They were the largest land mammal in the islands.

C.they were very good at catching animals
D.there were no other predators there
33.The underlined ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )word“innate”in Paragraph 3 is the closest in meaning to“________”.

C.particular D.severe
34.Which of the fol ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )lowing statements about Falkland Island Wolves is NOT supported by the author
A.Ancient people brought them to the islands.
B.They went to the islands by a land bridge.
C.People aren't sure how the wolves went to the islands.
D.They arrived at the islands on floating ices.
35.What can we infer from the passage

B.Falkland Island Wo ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )lves have lived in North America for 30,000 years.
C.Humans regret the extinction of the Falkland Island Wolf.
D.The islands were joined to South America 62,000 years ago.

More than half of ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) Americans do not take all their vacation days,even though they think they need a holiday more this year than last.And nearly a third of workers who do take a break check in with work every other day and some keep in touch hourly,according to a new survey.
“We're workaholics ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )(工作狂),”said Samuel Nahmias,vice president of research firm StudyLogic.“From a general perspective this has a lot to do with the economic situation in the US.More and more people are unemployed.”
With jobless number ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )s staying at 9.6 percent people who have jobs seem to be unwilling to take time off.“It is not a great picture and that affects vacations.People are not going on vacation as much and those that are going on vacation are being more selective about where they are going.”Nahmias explained.
Unlike Europea ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )n countries where four or more weeks of holiday each year is normal,27 percent of people questioned in the poll said they had six to ten days of annual leave and 20 percent had less than three days.With more people on the unemployment lists, those still with jobs are facing more responsibility at work,which is reflected in their lack of time off.
The majority ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )of workers who did not take time off mentioned too many responsibilities or stress at work,while some people said they simply did not have the time to plan a holiday.“People are more conscious of what they are doing and when they are going on vacation because they don't want to look bad in this situation,”Nahmias explained.
Technology is also pl ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )aying a part with smartphones enabling workers to keep in contact in ways that were not possible before.It has to do with technology and the level of concern about what is going on in the office.
36.Americans don't take all their vacation days because ________.
A.they have been tired of taking holidays
B.they are afraid of losing their jobs
C.they want to contact their bosses closely
D.they prefer to work rather than rest
37.Which of the follow ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ing statements is TRUE according to Paragraph 3
A.Traveling can make unemployed people feel relaxed.
B.People are unwilling to go on short vacations.
C.The high unemployment rate causes people not to take vacations.
D.People are more selective about their jobs.
38.What can we infer from Paragraph 4
A.Americans are under more pressure in their work than before.
B.The economic situation in Europe is better than that in America.
C.Americans are more hard-working than Europeans.
D.People in countries ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )with lower unemployment rates spend longer vacations.
39.Most Americ ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )an workers are cautious even when taking vacations because ________.
A.they have a lot of work undone
B.they are more concerned about their duties
C.they can be reached by phones even if on vacation21·世纪*教育网
D.they want to make a good impression on their
employers
40.What's the passage mainly about
A.Most Americans are workaholics.
B.Many Americans don't take vacations.
C.Unemployment is going from bad to worse.
D.Pressure of work leads to quitting.

Cancer sufferers ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) could be treated with immune cells(免疫细胞)from donors resistant to the disease.US scientists say they have been given the permission by the authorities to test experimental treatment on humans.
Zheng Cui and his col ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )leagues at Wake Forest University of Medicine in Winston-Salem,North Carolina,have received permission from the Food and Drug Administration to screen people for their ability to avoid cancer.
Immune cells from t ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )he best cancer fighters will be given to cancer patients,after being matched for the blood type,the scientists said.
The scientists ha ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ve discovered that a much larger population of immune cells called granulocytes(粒性白细胞)can also kill cancer and they have shown that immune cells from some people may effectively fight cancer in others.
The researchers ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )took blood samples from more than 100 people and mixed their granulocytes with cervical cancer cells.Granulocytes from one person killed around 97 percent of cancer cells within 24 hours.However,only around 2 percent of cancer cells were killed by those from another healthy individual.
Last year,however,t ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )he scientists successfully treated a range of different cancers in mice by injecting them with granulocytes from a group of mice that are completely resistant to cancer.
“Our pre-clinical ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) tests have been successful.If this is half as effective in humans as it is in mice it could be that half of patients could be cured or at least given one to two years extra of high-quality life,”Cui was quoted as saying.
Everyone has some ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ability to fight cancer through immune cells called NK cells,which can identify and kill tumors(肿瘤)—although the extent of theses cells' influence is not known.Cells' ability to kill cancer appeared to be lower in blood samples taken from people over the age of 50 and even lower in people with cancer.It also fell when people were under stress and during winter,according to the scientists.
41.What do we know from the passage
A.Granulocytes from one person may be used to fight cancer in others.
B.Immune cells from ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) people resistant to cancer can be given to any cancer patients.
C.A lot of c ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ancer sufferers have been successfully cured with the help of immune cells.
D.As long as canc ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )er patients have the same blood type with cancer fighters,they can be cured.
42.In order ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )to treat cancer sufferers,scientists should get immune cells from ________.
A.healthy mice
B.patients who just get cancer
C.healthy people
D.the best cancer fighters
43.What does the underlined word“those”in Paragraph 5 refer to
A.Blood samples. B.Granulocytes.
C.Individuals. D.Cancer cells.
44.What do we know from Cui's words in Paragraph 7 www.21-cn-jy.com
A.The tests to people have been proved successful.
B.The new way can only cure half of human patients.
C.The finding may be very useful in treating cancer.
D.Not everybody can fight cancer through NK cells.
45.In which colum ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )n of a magazine can you most probably find this passage
A.Science. B.Nature.
C.Life. D.History..

Three Umbrellas
Sally was a col ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )lege student in London. She wanted to buy her mother a nice and useful birthday present, but not too expensive.
One day after a q ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )uick and simple lunch, she went shopping. Having looked for half an hour, she came across a shop selling umbrellas at a good price. So she decided to take one. She thought,“Mom can carry it when she is wearing clothes of any color.” Then she bought a lovely black umbrella and took it to school with her until her class finished.
On her way hom ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )e in the train that evening she felt hungry, so she went to the buffet car. She left the black umbrella above her seat. But when she got back, she found it was gone!
Sally burst into tears ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ). The other passengers felt very sorry for her and asked what was wrong. When she explained the black umbrella she had bought for her mother had disappeared, and that she had to get off at the next station, the three other passengers asked her for her mother's address so that they could send the umbrella to her in case someone returned it after Sally got off the train.
The next week, Sally ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )got a letter from her mother saying “Thank you very much for your lovely presents, but why did you send me three black umbrellas?”

综合检测(五)
【语篇解读】 本文是一篇议论文。有人认为现在 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )的男士越来越没有修养了,见了女士上车也不积极主动地让座。其实这也不能全怪男士,因为妇女不仅要求在工作或教育上平等,而且还要求在社会生活上平等。她们不愿意被人称为“弱者”。
1.C supply, o ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ffer, provide都有“提供,供给”之意,只有offer可以表示“主动提出”,构成offer sb. sth.结构。
2.A 由下文可知,现在男士不再主动让座,也就是说情况已经不同了。
3.B 害羞的男士会用报纸遮住脸,也就是说藏在报纸后面,而不是暴露在(expose)、阻塞在(block)或盖在(cover)报纸后面。
4.C 上文提到女士上车时没有男士让座,所以就得一直站着,直到有人下车(get off)。
5.C 由though以及下文的解释可知,这种变化不应“完全”责备男士。
6.B 这四个选项都是由分 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )词转化而来的形容词。此处为:妇女被称为弱者的日子已经一去不复返了。 gone 强调“过去的,不见了”, 符合题意。missing 强调“失踪了”,但有可能还找得回来;lost 强调“丢失的,丧失的”;disappear“消失”;均不符合题意。
7.C  be referred to为固定搭配,意思是“被称为……”。
8.A 句意为:一代强烈要求和男士平 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )等的妇女已经逐渐形成,她们不仅要求在工作或教育上平等,而且还要求在社会生活上平等。demand在这里指根据自己的权利,理直气壮地提出强烈要求。最大的干扰项request指非常正式、有礼貌地请求或恳求,多含担心因种种原因对方不能答应的意味。long for“渴望”;declare“宣布”。
9.A  为一些(要出门或进门的)女士扶 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )一下门,你很有可能会遭到她们生气的指责,她们会误以为你把她们当成了弱者。hold在这里意思是“扶着,握着”。
10.B 这四个选项都可以和to 连用,但是为女士开门,很有可能(likely)引起误会,也就排除了最大的干扰项sure。
11.C 由上文的女士被认为是弱者而生气可知,她们以为别人认为她们没有能力自己开门。unable意思是“没有能力的,不会的”。
12.A share强调“(某人应得或应负担的)一部分”。
13.A consideratio ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )n意思是“尊敬,关心,体贴”。指前文提到的为女士让座等一系列尊重、关心女士的行为,下文也有提示。注意干扰项count的意思是“计数;计算;总计,总数”。
14.B  replace “取代”符合上下文。
15.A rather than在这里用作连词词组,连接两个并列成分,表示在两者之间进行选择,意为“是……而不是……”。
16.found 17.nor 1 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )8.why 19.reasonable 20.who 21.at 22.for 23.possibly 24.a
25.thinking
26.D 推理判断题。文章没 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )有直接说出参观者到Pompeii的目的。通读全文可知,Pompeii是一座被火山吞没的城市。由于火山突然喷发,人们来不及逃避,而保留了当时人们生活的遗迹。所以参观者来的目的是看一看Pompeiians当时是如何生活的。
27.C 细节理解题。由第二段后 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )两句“Mount Vesuvius had not erupted for centuries,so the people of Pompeii felt safe.But they were not”可知,几乎没有人想到火山会重新喷发。
28.B 细节理解题。从第二、三段可 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )知,Pompeii位于Mount Vesuvis脚下,Mount Vesuvis是一座火山,但有多个世纪没有喷发了。人们以为它不会再喷发,但是,在公元79年8月火山突然喷发,整个城市被埋葬在石头和灰尘下。由于火山突然喷发,人们在毫无思想准备的情况下被埋葬了,所以保留了当时全部的情景。21世纪教育网版权所有
29.D 词义猜测题。从下文“a huge black cloud rose into the air”可推知整个山顶“开裂”了。

With the develop ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ment of the economy, more families have bought private cars, thus leading to heavier traffic problems and more serious air pollution. To raise public awareness of energy saving and environmental protection, Car-free Day is launched in 108 cities in China on September 22 every year. On that day, people are encouraged to take public transport,ride bicycles or walk. The campaign has gained much support all over the country, which is a real success. I hope more cities and their residents will take part in this type of activity.

Sally, a col ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )lege student, bought her mother an umbrella as a birthday present but lost it on the train. Moved by her kindness and respect for her mother, some passengers on the train sent her mother three umbrellas.
Sally loved her ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) mother and remembered her mother's birthday. As a 17-year-old girl, I love my mother very much as well. I send my mother flowers on Mother's Day. Last year,on mother's 45th birthday, I bought my mother a very good comb from store. When I showed it to my mother and told her it was good for her health to comb her hair often, she burst into tears and then smiled to my father and me. Never had I imagined that a simple gift would make her so moved.
Mother's love i ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )s the most precious in the world. I think we can show our love for our mother by doing small things. What is most important is to show our love every day.

Volcanoes
The ground we w ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )alk on seems firm,but deep under the earth and under the sea the rocks change and move.In some parts of the world there are“fire mountains”,which we call volcanoes.From time to time they burst open and throw out fire and burning ashes.These volcanoes are very dangerous.21世纪教育网版权所有

One of the most famou ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )s volcanoes which erupted in recent time is Krakatoa,on an island in Indonesia.The first explosion took place on 20th May,1883,but the biggest eruption did not come until the 26th and 27th August of that year.The people on the island were used to the explosions by that time,and so they were completely unprepared for this terrible happening.Almost all the people on the island died and the explosion also made huge waves in the sea,which drowned(淹死)many people on the other island nearby.After the eruption was over,people saw that the whole northern part of the island had completely disappeared.Scientists say that 15 cubic(立方)kilometers of rocks and ash were thrown up in the explosion.The noise of the explosion was heard nearly 5000 kilometers away in the middle of the Indian Ocean,and the city of Jakarta was completely dark for about two and a half hours.

Half the wor ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ld's population is affected by Asian monsoons(季风),but monsoons are difficult to predict.American researchers have put together a 700-year record of the rainy seasons,which is expected to provide guidance for experts making weather predictions.【来源:21·世纪·教育·网】
Every year,moist(潮湿的)a ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ir masses,known as monsoons,produce large amounts of rainfall in India,East Asia,Northern Australia and East Africa.All this wet air is pulled in by a high pressure area over the Indian Ocean and a low pressure area to the south.【版权所有:21教育】
According to Ed ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ward Cook,a weather expert at Columbia University in New York,the complex nature of the climate systems across Asia makes monsoons hard to predict.In addition,climate records for the area are too recent and not detailed enough to be of much use.Therefore,he and other researchers spent more than 15 years traveling across Asia,looking for trees old enough to provide long-term records.They measured the rings inside thousands of ancient trees in more than 300 places.21cnjy.com
Rainfall has a direc ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )t link to the growth and Width of rings on some kinds of trees.The researchers put together a Monsoon Asia Drought Atlas(地图集)documenting monsoons over seven centuries,beginning in the 1,300s.
“If the monsoon ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )fails or is a very weak one,the trees affected by monsoons at that location might have a very narrow ring,”said Professor Cook.“But if the monsoon is very strong,the trees affected by that monsoon might have a wide ring for that year.”With all the information,researchers say they can begin to improve computer climate models for predicting the behavior of monsoons.
“There has be ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )en widespread starvation and loss of human life in the past during large droughts while a particularly heavy monsoon can cause serious flooding,”said Eugene Wahl,a scientist with America's National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration.“So,the regional moisture models,dryness and wetness over such along period of time in great detail mean a kind of victory for climate science.”
1.What's the passage mainly about
A.The effects of Asian monsoons.
B.The necessity of weather forecast.
C.The achievements of Edward Cook.
D.A breakthrough in monsoon predictions.
2.It is difficult ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )for experts to predict Asian monsoons because ________.
A.it is hard to keep long-term climate records
B.they are formed under complex climate systems
C.they influence many nations
D.there is heavy rainfall in Asia
3.What can be inferred from the passage
A.Long and det ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ailed climate records can offer useful information for monsoon research.2·1·c·n·j·y
B.The Monsoon Asia Dr ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ought Atlas has a monsoon record for about 1,300 years.2-1-c-n-j-y
C.The trees affected by monsoons grow fast if the monsoon is weak.
D.The rainfall ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) might be low although the monsoon is strong in monsoon-affected areas.【出处:21教育名师】

Greenwich,in th ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )e south of the Thames,the longest river in England,has a long history.Throughout time different buildings have been constructed on the same site.The Palace of Placentia,an English Royal Palace built in 1447,no longer exists apart from a few remains under the present buildings.21教育名师原创作品
The impressive bui ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ldings on the south bank of the Thames at Greenwich were designed by the English architect Sir Christopher Wren.The buildings were finally completed in 1745,although some parts started to be used as early as in 1705.They're now part of a university—having served as a naval(海军的)hospital and a naval college and the setting for several movies.
But the buildings ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) stand on a site which has a much longer history.For nearly two hundred years,from around 1450 to 1650,Greenwich was one of the main royal palaces of England.Some of the most famous English rulers,such as Henry Ⅷ and Elizabeth Ⅰ,not only lived there,but were also born there.21·cn·jy·com
Henry Ⅷ put an armory ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )(军械库)there,and there were also gardens and a mass of buildings.The Palace of Placentia was also in a strategic location,because at the time either side of Greenwich on the Thames was important places where ships were built and repaired.
Eventually,howeve ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )r,the palace fell into bad condition.In 1664,the King at the time,Charles Ⅱ,decided to replace it with completely new buildings in a modern style.Only a cellar(地窖)from the former royal palace now remains,under one of the new buildings.Its red brick,typical of the sixteenth century,contrasts sharply with the white stone above it.
Would you like to join us to have a good view of Greenwich
6.The buildings on the south bank of the Thames at Greenwich________.
A.are now still used as part of a university
B.are similar to those in the 16th century
C.were designed in the style of Elizabeth Ⅰ
D.are the most impressive buildings in England
7.The Palace of Placentia ________.
A.ever served as a naval hospital
B.was constructed of white stones
C.was designed by Christopher Wren
D.was of particular importance in time of war
8.Why did Charles Ⅱ replace the palace
A.Because it was in need of repair.
B.Because he didn't like its color.
C.Because it was located underground.
D.Because it was in an old style.
9.When did the Pala ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ce of Placentia disappear from the ground according to the passage 21·世纪*教育网
A.In the late 1400s.  B.In the early 1600s.
