Everyone should visit a lighthouse at least once.
The most important reasons for such a visit is to realize how our ancestors(祖先) battled nature with the basic tools they had. They had only basic ways of creating light, and yet they found a way of using this simple technology in isolated(孤零零的)places to save ships from hitting rocks.
Secondly, visiting lighthouses will help us to understand the lives of lighthouse keepers. By their very nature, lighthouses were built on some rocks of cliffs. Thus, the lighthouse keepers often lived lonely lives. To walk around their small home, and imagine the angry storm outside beating against the walls, is to take a step towards understanding the lives they had.
The reasons for a visit to a lighthouse are not all so backward-looking in time. It is true that lighthouses were built in out-of-the-way places. But on a pleasant sunny summer day, this very isolation has a natural beauty that many people will love to experience. Therefore, with the gentle waves touching all round the lighthouse, the visitor is likely to think it is a world preferable to the busy and noisy modern life.
Another reason for considering a visit is that the lighthouses themselves can be very attractive buildings. Mankind could often not be content just to put up a basic structure, but felt the need, even in such an isolated place, to build with an artistic touch. The result is a view for tired eyes to enjoy.
Finally, lighthouses have a romantic attraction, summed up by the image of the oil-skin coated keeper climbing his winding stairs to take care of the light to warn ships and save lives.
67. What is the reason to look back into the past of a lighthouse?
A. To escape from the busy and noisy city.
B. To look for the tools used by our ancestors.
C. To experience the natural beauty of a lighthouse.
D. To learn about the living condition of lighthouse keepers.
68. The underlined phrase “out-of-the-way” in Paragraph 4 means ____________.
A. far-away B. dangerous C. ancient D. secret
69. Lighthouses were often built with an artistic touch _________.
A. to attract visitors B. to guide passing ships
C. to give a pleasant sight D. to remember lighthouse keepers
70. How many reasons are mentioned for a visit to lighthouse?
A. Three B. Four C. Five D. Six

For hundreds of years humans have dreamed of finding life on distant planets.Now the hope of discovering real evidence of life has greatly increased.
NASA's Mars detector(探測器),Opportunity,succeeded in finding signs that water once existed on the planet.Opportunity landed on Mars in January.Scientists now believe that the planet could once have supported life.
This discovery was chosen by ?Science?,one of the world's leading magazines,as the most important scientific achievement of 2004 last Friday.
“This little,wheeled,one-armed box went around another planet and has done something no human has ever managed,” according to ?Science?.“It has discovered another place in the universe where life could once have existed.
“Although we still can't say that life could have existed in this environment,it is now certain that there was water on Mars,”said Steve Squyres,one of the scientists working on the Mars mission.The evidence comes from pictures and chemical readings taken by Opportunity.It includes marks on rocks like those caused by following water on Earth and salty chemicals like those found in dried-out sea-beds.Scientists said the new evidence proved beyond doubt that water has existed on Mars.But it is still unknown whether the water was like an ocean or just ice.
While Opportunity has not found any signs of life,the presence of water means life is possible.“In everything we know about life on Earth,there is no example without liquid water,” Squyres said.“So water is important for the search for life on Mars.”
Researchers agree that a future mission(任務(wù)) should bring back physical samples(樣品).But some scientists worry about the risk that this could introduce dangerous foreign creatures to Earth.“The problem here is how to get the samples back,”Squyres replied.“I think it is our responsibility to limit any risk.”
What proved that water existed on Mars?
A.The physical samples with salty chemicals.
B.The marks on rocks and salty chemicals.
C.Scientific achievements of 2004.
D.Creatures from Mars.
Which of the following is true according to the text?
A.It is now certain that there was water on Mars.
B.The water on Mars was like an ocean.
C.Evidence of life on Mars has been found.
D.Search for life on Mars is a great risk to humans.
How did scientists draw the conclusion that there was water on Mars?
A.The world's leading magazine has announced the fact.
B.Scientists have taken many pictures and chemical readings on the Mars.
C.Astronauts have got some rocks from Mars.
D.Scientists have made a study of the pictures and readings sent back by Mars detector.
It can be inferred that,if the creatures from Mars came to earth,_________.
A.they would be kind to humans
B.they would be cruel to humans
C.they would be a great danger to Earth
D.it would be hard to say whether it would be good news or bad news

It had been a long,hard,wonderful day.The two of us had walked from the sea’s edge through the length of a beautiful valley,climbed a superb mountain,travelled its narrow,rocky ridge(山脊),and now stood on its final peak,tired,happy and looking for the perfect campsite.
The experienced backpacker has a natural feeling for such things,and our eyes were drawn to a small blue circle on the map,like an eye winking at us.We could not see it from where we were,but we followed our judgement and went down steeply until it came into view.
We were right.It was a calm pool,with flat grass beside it.Gently taking our packs off,we made the first of many cups of tea before pulling up our tent.Later that evening,over another cup of tea and after a good meal,we sat outside the tent watching the sunset over a sea dotted with islands,towards one of which a ferry was slowly moving.It is not always so perfect,of course.On another trip,with a different companion,a thoroughly wet day had ended at a lonely farm.Depressed at the thought of camping,we had knocked and asked if we could use a barn(谷倉) as a shelter.
Backpacking could be defined as the art of comfortable,self?sufficient(自給自足的) travel on foot.Everything you need is in the pack on your back,and you become emotionally_as_well_as_physically_attached_to_it.I once left my pack hidden in some rocks while I made a long trip to a peak I particularly wanted to climb.I was away for nearly three hours and ended up running the last stretch in fear that my precious pack would not be there.It was,of course.
The speed at which the backpacker travels makes this the perfect way to see any country.You experience the landscape as a slow unfolding scene,almost in the way it was made;and you find time to stop and talk to people you meet.I’ve learned much local history from simply chatting to people I met while walking through an area.At the end of a trip,whether three days or three weeks,there’s a feeling of achievement,of having got somewhere under your own power.
After years of going out walking just for the day,many people start backpacking simply through wanting to stay out rather than cut short a trip.
1.The writer and his companion knew there was a pool because ________.
A.they had been told about it
B.they could see it on the map
C.they had seen it earlier in the day
D.they could see it from the top of the mountain
2.What does the underlined word “it” in Paragraph 2 refer to?
A.The map.? B.The pool.
C.The mountain.? D.The campsite.
3.How did the writer and his companion feel at the end of the day?
A.They were too tired to put up their tent.
B.They wished they could have found a farm.
C.They were anxious about the coming weather.
D.They were delighted with the spot they’d found.
4.What does the writer mean by being “emotionally as well as physically attached to it ” in Paragraph 4?
A.It is more than just a practical aid.
B.He walks better when he is wearing it.
C.It is not a good idea to leave it anywhere.
D.He might die on the mountains without it.
