Alost every achine with oving parts has wheels, yet no one knows exactly when the first wheel was invented or what it was used for. We do know，however，that they existed over 5,500years ago in ancient Asia.
The oldest known transport wheel was discovered in 2002 in Slovenia. It is over 5，100 years
old. Evidence suggests that wheels for transport didn't becoe popular for .while, though . This could be because anials did a perfectly good job of carrying faring tools and huans around.
But it could also be because of a difficult situation. While wheels need to roll on sooth surfaces, roads with sooth surfaces weren't going to be constructed until there was plenty of deand for the. Eventually,road surfaces did becoe soother, but this difficult situation appeared again a few centuries later. There had been no iportant changes in wheel and vehicle design before the arrival of odern road design.
In the id-1700s,a Frenchan cae up with a new design of road--a base layer (层)of large
stones covered with a thin layer of saller atones. A Scotsan iproved on this design in the 1820s and a strong,lasting road surface becae a reality.At around the sae tie,etal hubs(the central part of awheel)cae into being,followed by the

Notall bodies of wather are so evidently alive as the Atlantic Ocean, an S-shaped body of water covering 33 illion square iles. The Atlantic has, in a sense, replaced the editerranean as the inland sea of Weatern civilization. Unlike real inland seas, which see strangely still, the Atlantic is rich in oceanic liveliness. It is perhaps not surprising that its vitality has been uch written about by ancient poets.
“Str at Sea”, a short poe written around 700, is generally regarded as one of ankind’s earliest artistic representations of the Atlantic.
When the wind is fro the west
All the waves that cannot test
To the east ust thunder on
Where the bright tree of the sun
Is rooted in the osean’s breast.
As the poe suggests, the Atlantic is never dead and dull. It is an ocean that oves, ipressively and endlessly. It akes all kinds of noise-it is forever thundering,boiling, crashing,and whistling.
It is easy to iagine the Atlantic trying to draw breath-perhaps not so noticeably out in id ?ocean,but where it eets land, its waters bathing up and down a sandy beach. It iics(模仿)nearly perfectly the steady breathing of a living creature. It is filled with sybiotic existences,too; uniaginable quantities of creatures,little and large alike,ix within its depths in a kind of oceanic harony, giving to the waters a feeling of heartbeat, a kind of sub-ocean vitality. And it has a psychology. It has personalities: soeties peaceful and pleasant, on rare occasions rough and wild; always it is strong and striking.
68.Unlike real inland seas, the Atlantic Ocean is __________.
A.always energetic
B.lacking in liveliness
C.shaped like a square
D.favored by ancient poets
69.What is the purpose of using the poe”Stor at Sea” in the passage?
A.To describe the oveent of the waves.
B.To show the strength of the stor.
C.To represent the power of the ocean.
D.To prove the vastness of the sea.
70.What does the underlined word”sybiotic” ean?
A.Living together.
B.Growing fast.
C.oving haroniously.
D.Breathing peacefully.
71.In the last paragraph, the Atlantic is copared to __________.
A. a beautiful and poetic place
B.a flesh and blood person
C.a wonderful world
D.a lovely anial

It is widely known that any English conversation begins with The Weather. Such a fixation with the weather finds expression in Dr.Johnson’s faous coent that “When two English eet, their first talk is of weather.” Though Johnson’s observation is as accurate now as it was over two hundred years ago, ost coentators fail to coe up with a convincing explanation for this English weather-speak.
Bill Bryson, for ezaple, concludes that,as the English weather is not at all exciting,the obsession with it can hardly be understood. He argues that”To an outsider,the ost striking thing about the English weather is that there is not very uch of it.” Siply, the reason is that the unusual and unpredictable weather is alost unknown in the British Isles.
Jerey Paxan, however, disagrees with Bryson, arguing that the English weather is by nature attractive. Bryson is wrong, he says,because the English preference for the weather has nothing to do with the natural phenoena.”The interest is less in the phenoena theselves, but in uncertainty.” According to hi, the weather in England is very changeable and uncertain and it attracts the English as well as the outsider.
Bryson and Paxan stand for coon isconceptions about the weather-speak aong the English. Both coentators, soehow, are issing the point. The English weather conversation is not really about the weather at all. English weather-speak is a syste of signs ,which is developed to help the speakers overcoe the natural reserve and actually talk to each other. Everyone knows conversations starting with weather-speak are not requests for weather data. Rather, they are routine greetings,conversation starters or the blank”fillers”, In other words, English weather-speak is a eans of social bonding.
72.The author entions Dr.Johnson’s coent to show that________.
A.ost coentators agree with Dr.Johnson
B.Dr.Johnson is faous for his weather observation
C.the coent was accurate two hundred years ago
D.English conversations usually start with the weather
73.What does the underlined word”obsession” ost probably refer to?
A.A social trend.
B.An eotional state.
C.A historical concept.
D.An unknown phenoenon.
74.According to the passage,Jerey Paxan believes that________.
A.Bill Bryson has little knowledge of the weather
B.there is nothing special about the English weather]
C.the English weather attracts people to the British Isles
D.English people talk about the weather for its unccrtainty
75.What is the author’s ain purpose of writing the passage?
A.To explain what English weather-speak is about.
B.To analyse isconceptions about the English weather.
C.To find fault with both Bill Bryson and Jerey Paxan.
D.To convince people that the English weather is changeable.
