19、【C1】_. Some few stopped to gaze at Oliver for a moment or two, or turned round to【C2】st_at him as they hurried by: but none relieved him, or troubled themselves to inquire how he came there. He had no heart to beg. And there he sat. He had been crouching on the step for some time,【C3】_(wonder)at the
20、 great number of public-houses(every other house in Barnet was a tavern, large or small): gazing listlessly【C4】_the coaches as they passed through, and thinking how strange it seemed that they could do, with【C5 】e_, in a few hours, what it had taken him a whole week of courage and【C6】_(determine)bey
21、ond his years to accomplish: when he was roused by observing that a boy, who had passed him carelessly some minutes before, had returned, and was now surveying him most【C7 】_ (earnest)from the【C8】o_side of the way. He took little heed of this at first: but the boy remained in the same attitude of cl
22、ose observation so long, that Oliver【C9】_(raise)his head, and returned his steady look. Upon this, the boy crossed over, and,【C10】w_close up to Oliver, said, “Hello!

23、ing weaning agewhen breast milk is being replaced by semi-solid foodsis highly prevalent in children of poor households in many developing countries. While the etiology is complex and multifactorial, the immediate causes are recognized as feeding at less than adequate levels for child growth and dev
24、elopment, and recurrent infections, including diarrhoea, resulting mainly from ingestion of contaminated foods. As a result, many young children, particularly between six months to two years of age, experience weight loss and impaired growth and development.Two such answers have arisen. Firstly, cer
25、eal fermentation is used for reducing the risk of contamination under the existing inappropriate conditions for food preparation and storage in many households. Secondly, a tiny amount of sprouted grains flour is used in preparation of weaning foods as a magic way to lessen the viscosity without dec
26、reasing energy density.A method to eliminate pathogenic bacteria and inhibit their growth during storage of weaning preparations can benefit nutrition and health in young children considerably. Use of fermented foods for feeding children of weaning age appears to be an effective solution. Fermented
27、foods have lower levels of diarrhoeal germ contamination, they are suitable for child feeding, and can be safely stored for much longer periods of time than fresh foods. The practice has been a traditional way of food preservation in many parts of the world. The antimicrobial properties of fermented
28、 foods and their relative higher safetydocumented since the early 1900shave been indicated in a number of studies.What are the underlying mechanisms by which fermentation processes help to prevent or reduce contamination? A possible answer suggests that during the fermentation process foods become m
29、ore acid. This explains why diarrhoea-causing bacteria are not able to grow in fermented foods as rapidly as in unfermented ones. It is also hypothesized that some of the germs present in the foods are killed or inhibited from growing through the action of antimicrobial substances produced during fe
30、rmentation(Dialogue on Diarrhoea, 1990). The fermented foods can, therefore, be kept for a longer time compared to fresh ones. It has been shown that while contamination levels in cooked unfermented foods increase with storage time, fermented foods remain less contaminated.Whatever the underlying me
31、chanisms, the fact is that the exercise reduces contamination without adding to the household cost both in terms of time and money. Its preparation is easy. The cereal flour is mixed with water to form a dough which is left to be fermented: addition of yeast, or mixing with a small portion of previo
32、usly fermented dough is sometimes needed. The dough can then be cooked into porridge for feeding to the child.Summary:Malnutrition and the resulting impaired growth and development in children of weaning age in developing countries results not only from【A1 】_but also from infections caused by contam
33、inated food. Studies have addressed the problem of inadequate intake by using sprouted grains in food preparation. Contamination has been tackled with【 A2】_. Both of these methods are, or were, used traditionally and are practical and inexpensive.Fermented foods have higher【A3】_, and also have antim
34、icrobial qualities. This means that contamination is decreased and that their【A4】_is increased. Fermentation occurs when【A5】_is left to stand, occasionally with simple additives.56 【A1】57 【A2】58 【A3】59 【A4】60 【A5】Section B60 It is very difficult to say just when colonization began. The first hundred
35、 years after Christopher Columbuss journey of discovery in 1492 did not produce any settlement on the North America continent but rather some Spanish trading posts further south, a great interest in gold and adventure, and some colorful crimes in which the English had their part. John Cabot, origina
36、lly from Genoa but a citizen of Venice, was established as a trader in Bristol, England, when he made a journey in 1497. But his ship, the Matthew, with its crew of eighteen, did no more than see an island(probably off the New England coast)and return home. He and his son made further voyages across
37、 the north Atlantic which enabled the English crown to claim a “legal“ title to North America. But for a long time afterwards the Europeans interest in America was mainly confined to the Spanish activities further south.The first beginning of permanent settlement in North America was nearly a hundre
38、d years after Columbuss first voyage. The Englishman Sir Walter Raleigh claimed the whole of North America for England, calling it Virginia. In 1585 he sent a small group of people who landed in Roanoke Island , but they stayed only for a year and then went back to England with another expedition, l
39、ed by Drake, in 1587. A second group who landed in 1587 had all disappeared when a further expedition arrived in 1590.The first permanent settlement in North America was in 1607. English capitalists founded two Virginia companies, a southern one based in London and a northern one based in Bristol. I
40、t was decided to give the name New England to the northern area. The first settlers in Virginia were little more than wage slaves to the company. All were men and the experiment was not very successful. Many died. Those who survived lived in miserable conditions. By 1619 the colony had only a thousa
41、nd people.61 The further voyages across the north Atlantic made by John Cabot and his son enabled the English crown to claim a “legal“ title to North America.（A）TURE（B） FALSE62 The colony Virginia was named by Christopher Columbus.（A）TURE（B） FALSE63 The first permanent settlement in North America wa
42、s in 1907.（A）TURE（B） FALSE64 Where were the two Virginia companies founded by English capitalists were based in?65 How many people were there in the colony by 1619?Section C65 If art seeks to divorce itself from meaningful and associative images, if it holds material alone as its objective, then I t
43、hink that the material itself ought to have the greatest possible plasticity, the greatest potentialities for the development of shapes and the creating of relationships. For that reason I think that the sculpture which has been created with a view to being form alone has been a great deal more succ
44、essful and interesting than has been the painting in that vein. The sculptor sets out with two pre-existing advantages: one, that he must have craftsmanship, and the other, that he works in the round. He does not have to stimulate depth nor create illusions of depth because he works in volumein thre
45、e-dimensional form.Thus Noguchi, working in marble, is able to develop relationships in three-dimensions rather than two and yet retain both simplicity and unity. He has at his disposal the advantages of light and space, and the natural translucence and glow of marble, all of which he exploits and r
46、eveals with great elegance.Henry Moore is one of the great contemporary imaginers who has brought new materials and new concepts into sculptural form. He discovers the naturally heroic character of bronze and exploits feelingly the graining and fine surfaces of wood. Undoubtedly his most remarkable
47、feat has been the surrounding of open space and his use of such space as a sculptural material. But beauty and craft and idea are still paramount with Moore and he never obliterates these qualities in the shock of the new.66 The author says that a painter is hindered because he must create an illusi

49、he uses（C） to incorporate empty space into his work（D）to use marble to all its advantages70 The author says that he prefers an art work of sculpture to one of painting on condition that_.（A）form alone is more important（B） there are three dimensions（C） the artist is a craftsman（D）the sculptor is famousSection D70 One hundred and thirteen million Americans have at least one ba
