Archimedes(阿基米德) is considered one of the three greatest mathematicians of all time along with Newton and Gauss. In his own time, he was known as “the wise one”. He was one of the last great Greek mathematicians. Except for his studies at Euclid’s school, he spent his entire life in his birthplace. Archimedes proved to be a master at mathematics and spent most of his time trying to solve any new problems. Sometimes he was so involved in his work that he forgot to eat. Lacking the blackboards and paper of modern times, he used any possible material to write on, from the dust on the ground to ashes from a fire that had burned out. He never gave up any opportunity to think carefully about his work.
Archimedes was a friend of Hiero, the king of Syracuse, and Gelon, Hiero’s son. He liked to solve the king’s most difficult problems to the amazement of the king. At one time, the king ordered a gold crown(王冠) and gave the goldsmith the exact amount of metal to make it. When Hiero received it, the crown had the correct weight, but the king doubted that some silver had been used instead of the gold. Since he could not prove it, he brought the problem to Archimedes. One day while considering the question, “the wise one” entered his bathtub(浴缸) and recognized that the amount of water that overflowed(溢出) the tub was proportional the amount of his body that was submerged. This idea gave him the means to solve the problem. This observation is now known as Archimedes’ Principle. Archimedes’ another famous statement is “Give me a place to stand on and I will move the earth.”
56. According to the passage, Archimedes ______.
A. was followed by many great Greek mathematicians
B. was good at thinking and hardworking
C. could draw his geometric figures on paper
D. was a great mathematician for a time
57. According to the passage, we can learn that _______.
A. Archimedes fame was given by the king and his son
B. the king liked asking Archimedes to help him solve problems
C. the king knew the crown was impure and wanted to test Archimedes
D. Archimedes put the crown into his bathtub and proved it was pure
58. Archimedes’ Principle was found ______.
A. when he drawing the geometric figures B. when he was doing mathematic problems
C. when he was playing with the king D. when he was bathing in his bathtub
B
What is green food? Do you enjoy green food every day? The concept of “green food” was first suggested by the Department of the Ministry of Agriculture in 1990.
Green symbolizes life, health and energy. Nowadays, people demand healthy and fresh food. Having enough food to eat is only a basic requirement, and they need more than this. They want to enjoy unpolluted, safe and nutritious food and eat comfortably. So the government does this through a set of “from the land to the dinner table” quality controls. It requires to change China’s traditional agricultural structures and ensure the food of high quality.
Safe vegetables refers to products without substances harmful to humans. Growing such vegetables requires no strong poisons, thus guaranteeing vegetables fresh and clean. There are strict regulations in place for even applying fertilizer(肥料). The examination of vegetables should reach the state food hygiene(卫生) standard. The following conditions for green food are regulated by the China Green Food Development Center. Firstly, products or raw materials must reach the green ecological environment standard set by the Ministry of Agriculture. Secondly, crop planting, livestock raising, fish breeding and food processing must follow green food operating procedures set by the Ministry. Products must be up to the green food hygiene standard. External packing must be pasted with national standard universal labels, special green food packing decoration and tag regulations.
However, by now, our goal hasn’t been completely realized. When you return home with a full basket, you are still worried about whether what you have bought is green and healthy. Indeed, for the sake of our health, we still have a long way to go.
59. According to the passage, we know that green food __________.
A. means the color of food is green
B. mainly refers to green vegetables

D. which examines food standards
62. The best title for this passage probably is ___________.

C. The future of green food
D. The regulations of green food

Yang Zhenning is a Chinese-American physicist. He received the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1957 at the age of 35, with Li Zhengdao, to become the first two Chinese Nobel-Prize winners.
Yang Zhenning was born in 1922, in Anhui Province. Yang was brought up in a peaceful and academically atmosphere of Tsinghua University in Beijing, where his father was a professor of mathematics.

In 1949 he moved to the Harvard-affiliated Radcliffe’s Institute for Advanced Study and in 1965 to New York’s Stony Brook University, where he worked until 1999.

阅读短文,从每题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中选出最佳选项。
When we have been hurt by a person close to us, how do we let go of resentment, forgive, and rebuild trust?
First, it's important to understand that letting go of resentment is something we can do regardless of whether the other person takes responsibility for his actions. In other words, letting go of resentment means that I have clearly known what has happened, and I can determine only what I, not the other person, will do about it. Letting go of resentment can be achieved by personal journaling or by finding a friend who will listen to your story.
But can you forgive the other person? Forgiving depends on your understanding the feelings and motives of the person that hurt you, and making sure that the other person understands how you were affected.
Lastly, can we rebuild trust? This clearly depends on whether you and the other person are ready and willing to take corrective action. In other words, I may be able to let go of resentment, I may come to understand the other person and forgive him, but if I do not see evidence of his willingness to make changes, it may not be possible for me to trust him again. Clearly, rebuilding trust is a gradual process that can take weeks, months, or even years.
Empathic(感情移入的)listening, open and honest communications can help you to let go of resentment, forgive, and rebuild trust in your relationships.
1. What’s “let go of resentment”?
A. It refers to something we can do by ourselves.
B. Fully know about what has happened.
C. Forgive what someone did to you.
D. Make others trust you through your behavior.
2. We know rebuilding trust is a gradual progress, because _______.
A. It depends on whether the two sides are willing to take actions
B. Sometimes the both sides can not forgive each other
C. sometimes they don’t like to correct their mistakes
D. rebuilding trust can take a long time or even years
3. Which of the following is not the right way to rebuild trust?
A. Have an open and honest talk with him.
B. Listen carefully when he talks about the matter.
C. Give him some valuable presents.
D. Make a real change in behavior.
4. Which is the best title of this passage?
A. Let go of resentment
B. Forgiveness and trust
