They area branch of the great Appalachian family, and can be seen to the west rising up to a noble he

11、ight andtowering over the surrounding country. When the weather is fair and settled, they are clothed in blue andpurple, and print their beautiful shapes on the clear evening sky, but sometimes when it is cloudless, graysteam gathers around the top of the mountains which, in the last rays of the set

12、ting sun, will shine andlight up like a crown of glory(华丽的皇冠).At the foot of these mountains, a traveler may see light smoke going up from a village.In that village, and in one of the houses (which, to tell the exact truth, was sadly time-worn andweather-beaten), there lived many years ago, a simple

13、, good-natured fellow by the name of Rip VanWinkle.Rips great weakness was a natural dislike of all kinds of money-making labor. It could not be fromlack of diligence(勤劳), for he could sit all day on a wet rock and fish without saying a word, eventhough he was not encouraged by a single bite. He wou

14、ld carry a gun on his shoulder for hours, walkingthrough woods and fields to shoot a few birds or squirrels. He would never refuse to help a neighbor,even in the roughest work. The women of the village, too, used to employ him to do such little jobs astheir less helpful husbands would not do for the

15、m. In a word, Rip was ready to attend to everybodysbusiness but his own.If left to himself, he would have whistled(吹口哨)life away in perfect satisfaction; but his wife wasalways mad at him for his idleness(懒散). Morning, noon, and night, her tongue was endlessly going, sothat he was forced to escape t

16、o the outside of the house the only side which, in truth, belongs to ahenpecked husband.21. Which of the following best describes the Catskill Mountains?A.

Rip Van Winkle. D. A Dutiful Husband.4BNo one is sure how the ancient Egyptians built the pyramids near

19、 Cairo. But a new study suggeststhey used a little rock n roll. Long-ago builders could have attached wooden poles to the stones androlled them across the sand, the scientists say.“Technically, I think what theyre proposing is possible,” physicist Daniel Bonn said.People have long puzzled over how t

20、he Egyptians moved such huge rocks. And theres no obviousanswer. On average, each of the two million big stones weighed about as much as a large pickup truck.The Egyptians somehow moved the stone blocks to the pyramid site from about one kilometer away.The most popular view is that Egyptian workers

21、slid the blocks along smooth paths. Many scientistssuspect workers first would have put the blocks on sleds(滑板). Then they would have dragged themalong paths. To make the work easier, workers may have lubricated the paths either with wet clay or withthe fat from cattle. Bonn has now tested this idea

22、 by building small sleds and dragging heavy objectsover sand.Evidence from the sand supports this idea. Researchers found small amounts of fat, as well as alarge amount of stone and the remains of paths.However, physicist Joseph West thinks there might have been a simpler way. West said, “I wasinspi

23、red while watching a television program showing how sleds might have helped with pyramidconstruction. I thought, Why dont they just try rolling the things? “A square could be turned into arough sort of wheel by attaching wooden poles to its sides, he realized. That, he notes, should make ablock of s

24、tone “a lot easier to roll than a square”.So he tried it.He and his students tied some poles to each of four sides of a 30-kilogram stone block. That actionturned the block into somewhat a wheel. Then they placed the block on the ground. They wrapped oneend of a rope around the block and pulled. The

25、 researchers found they could easily roll the block alongdifferent kinds of paths. They calculated that rolling the block required about as much force as moving italong a slippery path.West hasnt tested his idea on larger blocks, but he thinks rolling has clear advantages over sliding.At least, work

26、ers wouldnt have needed to carry cattle fat or water to smooth the paths.25. Its widely believed that the stone blocks were moved to the pyramid site by_.A. rolling them on roads B. pushing them over the sandC. sliding them on smooth paths D. dragging them on some poles26. The underlined part “lubri

27、cated the paths” in Paragraph 4 means_.A. made the path wet B. made the path hardC. made the path wide D. made the path slippery27. Why is rolling better than sliding according to West?A. Because more force is needed for sliding.B. Because rolling work can be done by fewer cattle.C. Because sliding

28、on smooth road is more dangerous.D. Because less preparation on path is needed for rolling.5CWe live in a technological society where most goods are mass-produced by unskilled labor. Becauseof this, most people think that craft(手艺) no longer exists.One of the ways these people wrongly support their

29、view is by pointing to 100-year-old homeswhich are still solid, and arguing that it is the craftsmanship that is responsible for their durability(持久性). “Homes in those days were well-built,” they say. No doubt these homes were well-built, but whatthese people have done is mix up the quality of mater

30、ial used in the house with the quality of thecraftsmanship.Homes today could be built to last just as long as those old homes if people were willing or able topay the price. For example, more people can no longer afford solid oak stairways, although they wereonce fairly common in older homes. Nor ca

31、n they afford the high labor cost of employing a carpenter(木匠) to build the stairway. Yet if someone can pay the high cost, there are still plenty of carpenters aroundable to make those stairways. And not only would these carpenters know how to build them, they wouldprobably do a better job than car

32、penters of old.One thing the modern carpenter has which enables him to do a better job is much more advancedtools. Such tools as laser beams and power planes help them lay out a house better and make moreprecision cuts(精确切割)on the wood. Also, it is not uncommon any more to find carpenters withcollege degree
