11. Yinxu (Ruins of Yin) is the ruins of the last capital of China's Shang Dynasty (1600 BC— 1046 BC). The capital served 255 years for 12 kings. It shows the golden age of early Chinese culture, crafts and science, a time of great prosperity(繁荣) during the Chinese Bronze Age(青铜时代).
Discovered in 1899, Yinxu is one of the oldest and largest archeological sites(考古遗址) in China and is one of the historical capitals of China and is listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. It lies in central Henan Province, near the modern city of Anyang, and is open to the public as the Garden Museum of Yinxu. It is famous as the source of oracle bone script(甲骨文), the earliest recorded form of Chinese writing. The oracle bone script has recorded almost everything from dream-explaining to events such as harvests, birth of a child, the weather and the success of military campaigns.
Over 3,000 tombs, 2,200 pits, and 200 houses have been dug out at Yinxu. The large number of burial accessories found there shows the high level of the Shang crafts industry.
The site includes a main palace and an ancient tomb. Besides, there are a number of large buildings, at least 53 of which have been dug out.
Yinxu has seen many years of research, first researched in the late 1920s to the early 1930s and most recently by the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences.
1. During which period may Yin have been the capital of China's Shang Dynasty
A. 1600 BC-1500 BC. B. 1500 BC—1200 BC.
C. 1200 BC-1050 BC. D. 1050 BC—850 BC.
2. From the passage, we can know that Yinxu ________.
A. was discovered in the 1920s
B. can be visited by the public
C. now proved the failure of the Shang Dynasty
D. was the last capital of China's Shang Dynasty
3. We can infer from the passage that ________.
A. there are 200 houses in Yinxu
B. many things are still to be dug out
C. Anyang is a city of the Shang Dynasty
D. no research has been carried out on Yinxu
12. More than 10 million Chinese cultural relics have been lost overseas, lots of which were stolen and illegally shipped out of China during the times of war before 1949. About 1. 67 million pieces are housed in no more than 200 museums in 47 countries, which accounts for 10 percent of all lost Chinese cultural relics, and the rest are in the hands of private collectors.
Most of these treasures are owned by museums or private collectors in the United States, Europe, Japan and Southeast Asian countries. There are more than 23,000 pieces in the British Museum, most of which were stolen or bought for pennies more than 100 years ago.
The major method to recover these national treasures was to buy them back. In some cases, private collectors donated the relics to the government. Also the government can turn to official channels to demand the return of relics.
In 2003, a priceless bronze pig's head dating from the Qing Dynasty was returned to its home in Beijing after it was removed by the Anglo-French Allied Army over 140 years ago. Macao entrepreneur(企业家) Stanley Ho donated 6 million yuan to buy it back from a US art collector and then donated it to the Poly Art Museum in Beijing.
Although buying-back is the most feasible way to recover the lost treasures, limited funding is always a big headache.
In recent years, the Chinese government has improved efforts to recover the precious cultural relics lost overseas. It has started a national project on the recovery of the treasures and has set up a database(数据库) collecting relevant information. It has signed several international agreements with many countries on this matter, and is also looking for international cooperation to recover the relics by working closely with several international organizations.

B.The Chinese government has done a lot to recover the lost cultural relics.
C.Many countries have returned the lost cultural relics to China for free.
D.China is preparing to set up a database to collect information about the lost cultural relics.

A.It was made in the Qing Dynasty.
B.It is now in the Poly Art Museum in Beijing.
C.It was donated by the French government to Qiina,
D.It was removed by the Anglo-French Allied Army over 140 years ago.

12. Two-thirds of the world's major rivers have now been disrupted(中断) with more than 50,000 dams in an attempt to store water and provide power. In the US, there are more than 85,000 dams, disrupting large and small rivers and in most cases transforming natural flow. The most famous of these, the Hoover Dam constructed in the 1930's, is mainly responsible for the fact that the Colorado River no longer reaches the ocean.
Dams, besides all their attractive benefits, also have negative impacts. Creating a reservoir(水库) means a large area must be munities may lose their land houses and cultural relies(遗址). Down stream of a dam, the flow may be reduced so that farmers cannot irrigate their fields.
Environmentally, the new reservoir can be a paradise for wildlife especially birds. However, it can cause greenhouse gas emissions(排放) and poison the water for fish. Also, the dramatic rise and fall of water levels during dam releases is too extreme for plants and animals to cope with, resulting in dead zones around the shores of reservoirs. Fish that lay their eggs in the shallows, for example, may find a few hours later that those sites are high and dry.
Dams don't just block water flow. The flow may be reduced so that farmers will have great trouble getting water for their fields. They also prevent fish migrations and are a barrier to sediment(沉淀物) flows. Instead of rushing downriver, sediments get backed up against the dam wall, which causes the reservoir level to increase over time. However, sediments which are rich in nutrients have become a problem. The fertility of the entire system can be influenced be influenced by soils lost during seasonal rains, not being replaced.
Perhaps the biggest problem can be seen in deltas(三角洲), often host to large cities, which are sinking into the oceans. Groundwater is being extracted to feed the city, causing the urban weight to sink and sediments washed away by the ocean are no longer being replaced. The result is that sea level rises in cities from Shanghai to Alexandria.
1.What effects does creating a reservoir have on people's life
a. People will see fewer birds near the rivers.
b. Farmers below the dam may have less water to irrigate their fields.
c. Visitors can't see some cultural relics anymore.
d. More conflicts and wars over water will break out.
e. All kinds of fish will become extinct in the future.
A.b c B.c e C.b e D.a d
2.With many dams built across rivers, fish will _______.
A.find more places to lay their eggs
B.face a more dangerous living habitat
C.feed on more sediments rich in nutrients
D.find it easier to deal with the rise of water
3.How can dams influence the cities like Shanghai
A.The rainy season will last longer
B.Rich soils will be washed away
C.Their entire system will be influenced
D.They will lie below sea level in the future
4.What does the text mainly talk about
A.Economic gain of dams B.Cultural loss of dams
C.Environmental loss of dams D.Environmental benefits of dams
