18、第II部分 阅读理解(共20小题;每小题2分,满分40分)ANick Campbell sat at the side of the road and wondered what to do next.He looked at the secondhand Harley Davidson hed bought from a backstreet garage back home in Miami at the beginning of his trip six weeks before.For years he had dreamt of crossing the United States
19、from east to west by motorbike and hed finally decided that it was now or never.Hed given up his job,sold his car and set off for the journey of his dreams.Hed been lucky,or so he thought,to find this old Harley Davidson and had bought it for a very reasonable priceit had cost him just $600.But five
20、 kilometres from Atlanta,he had run out of luck.The motorbike had broken down.He pushed the bike into town and found a garage.The young mechanic told him to leave the bike overnight and come back the next day.The following morning,to his surprise,the man asked if the bike was for sale.Certainly not,
21、 he replied,paid his bill and hit the road.When he got to Kansas the old machine ran out of steam again.This time Nick thought about selling it and buying something more reliable,but decided to carry on.When the bike was going well,he loved it.However,in Denver,Colorado the bike broke down again so
22、he decided to take it to a garage and offer it for sale.The mechanic told him to come back in the morning.The next day,to his amazement,the man offered him $2,000.Realising the man must be soft in the head,but clearly not short of money,Nick asked for $3,000.The man agreed and they signed the papers
23、.Then the mechanic started laughing.In fact it was several minutes before he could speak and when he could he said,“Thats the worst deal youll ever make,boy.”He removed the seat.On the underside was the inscription (铭文):To Elvis,love James Dean.31Harley Davidson here refers to a_.Acar Btruck Cgarage

26、the Greek states,led by Athens and Sparta,were ill equipped to deal with the threat.The Persians were well supplied with food and weapons.Their army included infantry,cavalry,and a large navy.It seemed that they would easily defeat the Greeks.The Greek allies decided to send 10,000 men northwards to
27、 slow down the Persians,while the rest prepared to defend their homelands.A group of 300 best Spartan soldiers were chosen to lead the force going north,with Leonidas in command.Leonidas realised that the only hope of slowing the Persians would be to block the narrow passage of land at Thermopylae.T
28、he Pass of Thermopylae was the route between the mountains and the sea,and was so narrow that only a few men could get through at a time.When the Persian army arrived at Thermopylae,they found Leonidas tiny army opposing them.The Persians attacked,but could not get through.They attacked again and ag
29、ain,but each time they were driven back by the Greeks,led by the fearless Spartans.Leonidasplan worked well until a Greek traitor called Ephialtes went to Xerxes.He told the Persian king about a goats path in the mountains that would take the Persian army past Thermopylae.When Leonidas saw the enemy
30、 crossing the mountains,he realised that he could no longer hold Thermopylae.He sent all the Greek soldiers except the 300 Spartans back to their homelands.The Spartans waited for the 500,000 Persians at the goats path.Although hopelessly outnumbered,the Spartans fought bravely.They all died,but the
31、 other Greeks were able to get home to strengthen the defences.36Compared with the Persian army,the Greek allies were very_.Apowerful Bwise Cweak Dfoolish37The Pass of Thermopylae was very important for the Greeks because_.Ait was easy to hold but hard to attackBonly very small boats could get throu
32、gh itCit was a secret pass unknown to the PersiansDa huge number of soldiers could be stationed there38Why did Leonidas send most of his soldiers back to their homelands?ABecause their homelands were under attack.BBecause he found they were not brave enough.CBecause the Persians gave up attacking Th

34、 of the following would be the best title for the passage?AThe Greek Allies BThe Goats PathCThe King of Persia DXerxes and EphialtesCNone of our early ancestors could digest milk as adults because their bodies never had tomilk drinking simply wasnt an option.As people began to extract milk from anim
35、als,though,some people developed the ability to keep drinking it throughout their lives.Scientists now know of a milkrelated mutation (变异) in our genesthe chemical instructions for life that we carry in almost every cell in our bodies.People who have a mutated form of one particular gene can drink m
36、ilk just fine.People without the mutation tend to get sick from milk.To figure out where,and possibly why,milk drinking started,some scientists have been looking at who has the milkdigesting mutation today.Patterns are striking.Most adults in Northern and Central Europe are able to digest milkand th
37、ey do.Cheese,butter and other dairy products are popular in countries such as Sweden,Denmark,Germany and England.Because European settlers dominated North America,most people here can handle milk just fine,as well.That may explain why ice cream is such a popular dessert in the United States.In much
38、of Africa,Asia and South America,on the other hand,people tend to avoid dairy products because they lead to diarrhea (腹泻) and other stomach problems.(Thats why you wont typically find cheese on the menu at a Chinese,Japanese or Ethiopian restaurant.) Native Americans are also unable to digest milk.B
39、ased on these genetic patterns,scientists have long thought that milk drinking started in Northern Europe,where dairy is an institution and the milkdigesting mutation is everywhere.A recent study painted a different picture.With a computer model,Thomas and colleagues looked at the spread of the milk
40、drinking mutation,farming and other related factors.Working backward,the scientists concluded that the first milkdrinkers lived in Central Europe around whats now Hungary about 7,500 years ago.The practice didnt start farther north,as scientists had thought before.41Which of the following is the pro
