23、re! Silk and aromatic wood from China, emeralds, silver.“（分数：60.00）_正确答案：()解析：我离开地窖，当卫兵关上门的时候，一位海洋考古学家问我是否还想看点别的什么，比如星盘，译一比六分仪还早的航海工具，这种工具现存的已经很少了。他说：“现在所知的年代最久远的星盘，我们就占据了三只。”他带我去看他的一位古巴同事所著的关于星盘的文章，文中摘引了一段 16 世纪关于星盘的说明：“在海上，若要测定太阳，你必须靠近主桅坐着，因为这个位置受到来自船的震荡最小，也最安静。” 我想了解的是古巴的过去，因此，我告诉这位考古学家我想去看看那些普通的

24、东西。我到这儿来的目的不仅仅是为了参观这些闪光的珍宝，还想看一看并感触一下那些展示了古巴过去的东西。他微笑着带我进了几间储藏室。在这些储藏室里，我看到了他和其他的考古学家们珍藏的从近 400 年来的沉船残骸中搜集到的货物，杂乱地堆在架子上的东西表明了古巴曾作为西班牙新大陆殖民地的帐房和指挥中心的漫长时期。 在储藏室里，我看到了那些为 18 世纪一年一度的贸易博览会而准备的小装饰品。通过博览会，古巴人从西班牙进口货物。我还看到了数十件从英国海运回来的彩色的陶瓷小狗、狮子、小猫、小鹿等，经过数百年海水的冲刷，它们都已褪色不少。堆在近旁的还有好几套餐具，大啤酒杯，一只沙漏和一瓶很有年头的西班牙酒。

25、又一天傍晚，在暮色中，我在 EI Morro 堡垒的防护墙散步，堡垒的灯塔高高屹立在哈瓦那的港口边。这古老的边塞，白天迎来一批批游客，夜晚若隐若现，昭示着哈瓦那久远的过去。当火把燃起照亮黑夜时，我看到身着 18 世纪西班牙哨兵服饰的古巴士兵们沿着圣卡洛斯城堡的防护墙走过，开炮宣告一天的结束。在西班牙时代，开炮就表示关城门并拉起环绕港口的长铁链子。而现在，在夜晚继续这一仪式，让人们更加铭记古巴作为殖民地的过去和它今天作为一个国家的地位。 在哈瓦那老城的海边伫立着总督府。它曾经是西班牙统治古巴的总部，现在却是这座城市的博物馆。光与影在珊瑚礁灰砌的墙上斑驳地舞动着。皇家的棕榈树在青草丛生的院子里发出

26、沙沙的响声。拾级而上，一条走廊通向历史学家兼历史保护者奥斯宾格勒的办公室。瘦削的他身着做工精细的黑色的礼服显得有些严谨。显而易见地，他统治着这座宫殿。 我们刚刚握完手，他已经飞快地讲起了哈瓦那，这座他见证了过去和现在的城市。我在地下室里参观过的珠宝将被置于他的保护之下。他已经挑选了一座古堡作为它们的新家。他的手一挥，说：“就是这座城市改变了历史。因为菲力普二世的一个决定，所有的船就不得不聚集于此将所有的珍宝都运回西班牙。那些宝贵的珍宝啊!有中国的丝绸和香料，还有猫眼石，银子等等。”二、BSection Chine(总题数：1，分数：40.00)2.B中国海洋事业的发展/B 海洋覆盖了地球表面的
