The Eiffel Tower is one of the most wonderful buildings in the world. It was built for the Centennial Exposition of 1889 to celebrate the hundredth anniversary(周年纪念)of the French Revolution. It was used to give an example of the progress and achievement of the 19th century science and technology.
The Tower was 300 meters high. When it opened in March 1889, the Tower was the tallest building in the world, and it remained so until May 1930 when the 319-meter Chrysler Building opened in New York City. (A year later, the 381-meter Empire State Building took the record and held it for 41 years. After that, CN Tower, the Canadian National Tower, built in 1976 in Toronto, measuring 553 metres, broke the record.)
Building such a tower was not easy. As Eiffel himself said, “What I had to worry about was wind resistance (阻力).” And he thought that his idea of building would give the tower a great impression of strength and beauty.”
History has proved that Eiffel’s opinion is right, and most people now consider the Tower to be an almost perfect building, but this opinion was not always supported. Even before the Tower was completed, a letter signed by 300 important artists (one for each meter of height) was sent to the city government talking about the “useless and ugly Eiffel Tower.’’ However, today the Eiffel Tower is thought of as a symbol of Paris and now appears on France’s 200-franc note.
【1】The Eiffel Tower gave an example of the progress of_______.
A.art B.tall buildings
C.the French Revolution D.science and technology
【2】The underlined word “it” in Paragraph 2 refers to_______.
A.building B.world C.city D.record
【3】In the 1960s, the tallest building in the world is_______.
A.the Eiffel Tower B.the Chrysler Building
C.the Empire State Building D.the Canadian National Tower
【4】Before building the Tower, Eiffel was worrying about the resistance from_______.
A.wind B.rain C.government D.artists
【5】Though the Eiffel Tower was wonderful, many artists_______.
A.were asked to rebuild it B.had a bad opinion of it
C.were sent to improve it D.thought it worth only 200 francs
25、We have to accept the truth: Sometimes, we just want to shout out loud.
For example, we all have days like this: our dog has made a mess on the floor we just cleaned, or our friend called to tell us he or she couldn’t come at the last minute when we had cooked dinner for him or her. We may be really angry but we tried to bear things like those. According to ancient Chinese wisdom, we should shout in a loud voice instead of keeping silent. In fact, it’s good for our health.
“Chinese people have passed on the practice from ancient times to now as a part of traditional medicine,” said Mrs. Li, a 60-year-old woman from Hangzhou. “My parents taught me to do this. It’s a part of our folk(民间的)culture. ”
Mrs. Li is a member of a group of people who love shouting. Each morning, she and some of her friends climb to the top of a hill and let out loud shouts before starting their daily exercise. They believe that shouting is good exercise for their lungs(肺)and it brings them a lot of fun.
“Sometimes I shout out and other shout back,” said Mrs. Gu, another shouting lover. “It makes you happy. You laugh and then you feel very comfortable. ”
Dr. Peter Calafiura, an American doctor, agrees that shouting can have a positive influence on people’s health.
So, next time you start your morning run, why not try to shout out first? It will make you healthier.
【1】The underlined word “bear” in Paragraph 2 means “__________” in Chinese.
A.纠正 B.忍受 C.铭记 D.杜绝

27、As young students, you have many dreams. These dreams can be very big, such as .winning the Nobel Prize. They can also be small. You may just want to become one of the best students in your class.
Once you find a dream, what do you do with it ? Do you ever try to make your dream real?
"Follow Your Heart" by Australian writer Andrew Marthews tells us that making our dreams real is 1ife's biggest challenge.
You may think you're not very good at some school subjects or that it is impossible for you to become a writer. "These kinds of ideas stop you from getting to your dream" the book says.
In fact, everyone can make his dream come tree. The first thing you must do is to remember what
your dream is.
Don't let it leave your heart. Keep telling yourself what you want every day and your dream will come true faster because a big dream is, in fact, many small dreams.
You must also never give up your dream. There will be difficulties on the road to your dreams. But the biggest difficulty comes from yourself. You need to decide what is the most important. Studying instead of watching TV will help you to get better exam results, while saving five Yuan instead of buying an ice cream means you can buy a new book.
As you get closer to your dream, it may change a little. This is good as you have the chance to learn something more useful and find new hobbies.
