We can see walls everywhere in the world. But the Great Wall of China is the biggest of all. The Chinese call it. “The Ten-thousand-Li. Great Wall.” It's in fact (事实) more than 6,000 kilometers long. It's 4-5 meters wide. In most places, five houses or ten men can walk side by side. When you visit the Great Wall, you can't help wondering (疑惑) how the Chinese people were able to build (建造) such a great wall thousands of years ago. Without any modern machine (机器), it was really very difficult to build it. They had to do all the work by hand. It took millions of men hundreds of years to build it.
The Great Wall has a history of over two thousand years. The kings began to build the first parts of it around two thousand seven hundred years ago. Then, Qin Shihuang had all the walls joined up (连起来). He thought that could keep the enemy (敌人) out of the country.

    If you want to become a better reader, what should you know about speed of reading?
    Some people read very rapidly(很快地), while others read very slowly. But which one is better?
    The rapid reader may be a good reader when he reads a storybook for fun. But he may not be able to slow down enough to read directions(说明) carefully. He may read so rapidly that he does not take time to understand fully the ideas and information which are important to remember.
The slow reader may be a good reader when he reads directions for making something. But he may spend too much time in reading a simple story which is meant to be enjoyed but is not important enough to be remembered.
    So, you see, either a rapid reader or a slow reader is not really a good one. If you wish to become a better reader, here are four important things to remember about speed of reading.
1. Knowing why you are reading will often help you to know whether to read rapidly or slowly.
2. Some things should be read slowly throughout. Examples are directions for making or doing something, science and history books, and Maths problems. You must read such things slowly or remember each important step and understand each important idea.
3. Some things should be read rapidly throughout. Examples are simple stories for enjoyment, letters from friends and bits of news from hometown papers.
4. In some of your reading, you must change your speed from fast to slow and slow to fast, as you go along. You will need to read certain(某些) pages rapidly and then slow down and do more careful reading when you come to important ideas.

 阅读下列材料,从A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳答案

The other day, my husband called me to the balcony(阳台). "Come, dear, look at that car!" 

"What's up?" I asked, looking down at the square in front of our apartment building. A driver was trying to park between two cars. 

"That must be a woman," my husband said.

"How do you know?"

"I've watched the car move back and forth twenty times. Men can't be so bad at driving!"

"What if the driver is a man?" I asked.

"I bet you 50 yuan that the driver is a woman!"

We stood on the balcony and watched the car. It felt a little silly. Five minutes later, the car was finally parked perfectly, and a man slowly got out.

"Fifty yuan please," I said to my husband as he silently walked away.

My husband is not alone in looking down on female drivers. On weekends, my friend Lily likes traveling around the city by bus. But she always hesitates to get on a bus if the driver is a woman. "I can't trust a female driver," she told me one day. "Women are not born to drive, you know."

"Sorry, but I don't know," I said. I go to work by bus every day, and I never think female drivers are any worse. In fact, they are often more careful than men. Research also shows that female drivers are 8.8 times less likely to cause accidents than male drivers.

There are not many female bus drivers, though. And in the history of Formula One(一级方程式赛车), only 0.26 percent of drivers have been women. Without role models, many girls may think they are not meant to be good drivers. But the ability to drive has nothing to do with gender. Women can drive well, too. It's time to stop making jokes about female drivers.

 阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C和D项中选出答案。

Dmitry Doronin,a doctoral student from Russia,is keen(热衷的)

Since Dmitry started to live in the countryside last August,the 32﹣year﹣old has created hundreds of video clips that record the relaxing lifestyle in Hengzhang village,Lishui city. "The rice is grown in the fields together with fish(农业的)products," said Dmitry,Dmitry also enjoys working with farmers in the fields,doing activities such as planting vegetables and feeding chickens. 

Living in a village provides him with unique experiences,he says,quite different from busy life in big cities,where he studies. And he has been a pleasant surprise to the villagers as well. Villager Bao Mingyue,76,"To our surprise,the young Russian not only knows how to cook Chinese food but is interested in working in the fields. "

Because of the epidemic,the sales of local agricultural products had dropped rapidly,so Dmitry volunteered to help sell the products in his videos. In a few months,000 kilograms of oranges,4,000 kilograms of dried sweet potatoes and 300 kilograms of honey had been sold. 

"Thanks to his videos,it seems that more tourists have come to visit our village,"says 72﹣year﹣old Pan Xianyu

Dmitry loves his country life. " In the countryside,you can enjoy yourself in the traditional way of life and understand this country better,"he says. 

According to Dmitry,some Russians' opinions about China are still out of date,although China has progressed greatly. "I would like to become a people to people envoy(使者)
