other men have achieved. An American university president once commented that Einstein had created a new outlook, a new view of the universe. It may be some time before the average mind understands fully the identity of time and space and so on-but even ordinary men understand now that the universe is something larger than ever thought before. By 1914 the young Einstein had gained world fame. He accepted the offer to become a professor at the Prussian Academy of Science in Berlin. He had few duties, little teaching and unlimited opportunities for study, but soon his peace and quiet were broken by the First World War.Einstein hated violence. The misery of war affected him deeply, and he sat unhappily in his office doing little. He lost interest in his research. Only when peace came in 1918 was he able to get back to work. In the years following World War I honors were increasingly heaped on him. He became the head of the Kaiser Whihem Institute of Theoretical Physics. In 1921 he won the Noble Prize, and he was honored in Germany until the rise of Nazism when he was driven from Germany because he was a Jew.(1)、The main idea of Paragraph 1 is the change in human thought produced by Einstein.()

Passage Five

Many superstitious people are afraid of black cats. They believe that black cats have a strange power. If a black cat crosses their path, they think they will have bad luck.

Black cats haven't always had such a bad reputation. Long ago, the Egyptians thought that black cats were holy animals. They even worshipped them. Pasht was an Egyptian goddess who had a woman's body and a cat's head. Because the Egyptians had so much respect for black cats, they often buried the sacred creatures with great ceremony. Mummies of cats have often been found in ancient cemetery ruins. To keep the cats company after they died, mice were sometimes buried beside them.

Feelings about black cats have always been strong. People have thought they were either very good or very bad. The people of Europe, in the Middle Ages, believed black cats were the evil friends of witches and the Devil. Witches were said to have the power to change themselves into black cats. People believed that you could not tell whether a black cat was just a cat, or whether it was a witch disguising herself as she plotted some evil scheme. The brain of a black cat was thought to be a main ingredient in witch's brew.

Unlike their ancestors of the Middle Ages, Englishmen today consider black cats to be good luck charms. Fishermen's wives often keep a black cat around so that their husbands will be protected when they are out at sea.

52. The Egyptian goddess Pasht had a ______.

A. woman's head and a cat's body

B. woman's head and a lion's body

C. cat's head and a man's body

D. woman's body and a cat's head

ought about this fact seriously must have wondered how it has come about that man has achieved a position so supreme(最高的) among the myriad(无数的) kinds of animal life.Two characteristics of man, in comparison with all other animals, that stand out above all others are the creation and use of tools and the development and use of language.Since no other animals have achieved these abilities, it must be assumed that man’s evolutionary development led to his capacity to create and use tools and to devise and use language.

Once these abilities and practices evolved, they probably became driving forces in the further evolution of man.Those members of the species who become most proficient(精通的) in the fabrication of tools and in the command of language and thought would tend to survive and maintain their kind for good, at the expense of those of lesser ability.

材料：

At 1800，the hydraulic steering system failed once again．The master realized he would require shore assistance to rectify the problem，and diverted towards Portland using the thruster to steer by．The weather at this time was south-south-west force 5．At about three hours later，the thruster drive unit failed due to a leaking fuel injector pipe on the power unit．This was replaced using the spare carried on board．Immediately following the engine restart，an adjacent fuel line failed causing shut down of the unit．With no fuel line spares available，the thruster power unit could not be used．The failure of this unit，and that of the main hydraulic steering system，left the vessel without any steering capability．

At 2155，with the weather deteriorating and no steering，the master contacted the Portland Coastguard and a“Pan pan”message was broadcast．A tow to Portland Harbor was arranged and she arrived alongside at 0240 the following morning．The subsequent investigation found that the main hydraulic steering system failure was due to a seized shuttle valve in the main hydraulic solenoid valve block．The solenoid valve had been recently overhauled．It was thought that the“O”rings fitted to the shuttle valve were of either the wrong type or a defective one．The valve had seized in such a position that hydraulic pressure by-passed the system preventing use of the hand steering．

问题：

The vessel was steered by thruster because ________ failed．

A.the hydraulic steering system

B.the solenoid valve

C.the thruster driving unit

D.the hand steering

The time that the thruster drive unit failed was ________ hrs．A.1800

B.2100

C.2155

D.0240

When the hydraulic steering system failed，________．A.the hand steering system could still be used

B.the auto steering system could still be used

C.both hand and auto steering system were out of use

D.neither and steering system nor auto steering system was out of use

The real reason that caused the hydraulic steering system to fail was that ________．A.no fuel line spare were available

B.the weather was deteriorating

C.the“O”rings fitted to the shuttle valve were of either the wrong type or a defective one

D.the thruster power unit failed

religion, art, laws and language. The term anthropology comes from two Greek words: "anthropos" means "human being" and "logy" means "the science of. Anthropology can be divided into two areas. These two main divisions are cultural anthropology and physical anthropology. Culture includes many things, such as art, religion, laws, and even furniture and movies.

Step two includes people who grew food. In this step, there was progress in invention and religion. The third step deals with the first civilizations, such as those in Egypt and parts of Asia.
