19、III Reading ComprehensionDirections: In this part there are four passages. Each passage is followed by a number of comprehension questions. Read the passages and choose the best answer to each question. Then, mark your answer by blackening the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet.45 If we were a
20、sked exactly what we were doing a year ago, we should probably have to say that we could not remember. But if we had kept a book and had written on it an aceount(记录) of what we did each day, we should be able to give an answer to the question.It is the same in history. Many things have been forgotte
21、n because we do not have any written account of them. Sometimes people did keep a record of the most important happenings in their country, but often it was destroyed by fire or in a war. Sometimes there was never written record at all because the people of that time and place did not know how to wr
22、ite. For example, we know a good deal about the people who lived in China 4000 years ago, because they could write and leave written records for those who lived after them. But we know almost nothing about the people who lived even 200 years ago in central Africa, because they had not learned to wri
23、te.Sometimes, of course, even if the people can not write, they may know something of the past. For most people can tell proudly what their fathers did in the past. This we may call “remembered history“. Some of it has now been written down. It is not so exact or so valuable to us as written history
24、 is, because words are much more easily changed when used again and again in speech than when copied in writing. But where there are no written re- cords, such spoken stories are often very helpful. 46 Which of the following ideas is not mentioned in the passage?（A）Remembered history, compared with
25、written history, is less reliable.（B） Written records of the past play a most important role in our learning of the human history.（C） A written account of our daily. activities helps us to be able to answer any questions.（D）Where there are no written records, there is no history. 47 We know very lit
26、tle about the central Africa 200 years ago because_.（A）there was nothing worth Being written down at that time（B） the people there dont pay attention to the importance of keeping a record（C） the written records were perhaps destroyed by a fire（D）the people there did not know how to write 48 “Remembe
27、red history“ refers to_.（A）history based on a persons imagination（B） stories of important happenings passed down from mouth to mouth（C） songs and dances about the most important events（D）both B and C 48 Read the following advertisements(广告), then choose the right answer.Driver wanteda) Clean driving
