Annealing

Annealing is a way of making metal softer by heating it and then letting it cool very slowly. If metal is heated and then cooled very quickly, for example by dipping (浸)it in water, it will be very hard but also very brittle(脆)-that is, It will break easily. Metal that has been annealed is soft but does not break as easily. It is possible to make metal as hard or as soft as is wished, by annealing it. The metal is heated, and allowed to cool slowly, for a certain length of time. The longer the heated metal takes to cool slowly, the softer it becomes. Annealing can also be used on other materials, such as glass.

A.hard and tough(韧). B.hard but brittle.

"I would almost rather see you dead," Robert S. Cassatt, a leading banker(银行家)of Philadelphia, shouted when his twenty-year-old eldest daughter announced that she wanted to become an artist. In the 19th century,playing at drawing or painting on dishes was all right for a young lady, but serious work in art was not. And when the young lady's family ranked among(跻身于)the best of Philadelphia's social(社交界的)families, such an idea could not even be considered.

That was how Mary Cassatt, born 1844, began her struggle as an artist. She did not tremble before her father's anger. Instead, she opposed(抗拒)him with courage and at last made him change his mind. Mary Cassatt gave up her social position(社会地位)and all thought of a husband and a family, which in those times was unthinkable for a young lady. In the end, after long years of hard work and perseverance(坚持), she became America's most important woman artist and the internationally recognized leading woman painter of the time.

74.How did Mr Cassatt react(反应)when his daughter made her announcement?

A.He feared for her life. B.He was very angry.

C.He nearly killed her. D.He warned her.

75.What in fact was Mr Cassatt's main reason in opposing his daughter's wish?

A.Drawing and painting was simply unthinkable among ladies in those days.

B.He did not believe his daughter wanted to work seriously in art.

C.He believed an artist's life would be too hard for his daughter.

D.Ladies of good families simply did not become artists in those times.

76.What made Mary Cassatt's "struggle" to become a recognized artist especially hard?

A.She was a woman.

B.Her father opposed her.

C.She had no social position.

D.She did not come from an artist's family.

77.What do we know about Mary Cassatt's marriage(婚姻)?

A.Her marriage failed because she never gave a thought to her husband and family.

B.She never married because she did not want to be just a wife and mother.

C.After marriage she decided to give up her husband rather than her career(事业).

D.She did not marry because for a lady of her social position to marry below her

was unthinkable.

78.What do we know about Robert Cassatt's character from the text?

A.He was a cruel man.

B.He was a stubborn(固执的)man.

C.He knew nothing about art.

D.He knew little about his daughter.

79.What do we know about Mary Cassatt's character?

A.She was brave in going against old ideas.

B.She got tired of always obeying her father.

C.She hated playing at drawing and painting.

D.She did not mind being poor at all.

80.As we can learn from the text,which of the following was generally considered the most important in the life of a woman in the U.S.in Mary Cassatt's times?

A.Money.

B.Career.

C.Marriage.

D.Courage.

Benin

Benin is one of the smallest African states. It lies in West Africa on the Gulf(海湾)of Guinea, to the south of Burkina Faso and Niger, between Togo on the west and Nigeria on the east.

Benin used to be called Dahomey and was controlled and ruled by France from 1893 to 1960, when it became independent(独立). In 1963 the army general Soglo overthrew(推翻)the first president Maga. Soglo set up an army government and called himself head of state in 1965, but was overthrown and replaced(取代)by a civilian(非军人)government in 1967. In December 1969 Benin had another change of power with the army again taking over(接管). In May 1970, Maga and two other men set up a new government, with each of them acting as president in turn for two years. However, half a year after Maga turned over power to the second man Ahomadegbe, the three-man government was overthrown by the army once more and General Kerekou became president. In November 1975 Kerekou changed the name of the nation from Dahomey to Benin, Benin being the name of a 17th century kingdom covering the same place.Kerekou also announced that Benin would be a People's Republic based on Marxism-Leninism.

81.Which of the following maps shows rightly the positions of Benin and its neighbouring countries?(Bn=Benin ; Tg=Togo ; Nr=Niger ; BF=Burkina Faso ; Na=Nigeria ; GG=Gulf of Guinea)

D.Under half a century.

83.For how long was Benin an independent state before it became a People's Republic?

A.15 years. B.25 years.

C.20 years. D.30 years.

84.Choose the right order in which the following people ruled in Benin. (Ah=Ahomadegbe; Ke=Kerekou; Ma=Maga; So=Soglo)

A.So, Ma, Ah, Ma, Ke B.Ma, So, Ma, Ke, Ah

C.So, Ma, Ke, Ma, Ah D.Ma, So, Ma, Ah, Ke

85.When and how did Benin get its two names-Benin and Dahomey?

A.Dahomey was its oldest name, but it has been replaced by Benin.

B.Benin was its oldest name. The name Dahomey was used later, but has been replaced by Benin again.

C.Dahomey was its oldest name. The name Benin was used later, but has been replaced by Dahomey again.

Annealing

Annealing is a way of making metal softer by heating it and then letting it cool very slowly. If metal is heated and then cooled very quickly, for example by dipping (浸)it in water, it will be very hard but also very brittle(脆)-that is, It will break easily. Metal that has been annealed is soft but does not break as easily. It is possible to make metal as hard or as soft as is wished, by annealing it. The metal is heated, and allowed to cool slowly, for a certain length of time. The longer the heated metal takes to cool slowly, the softer it becomes. Annealing can also be used on other materials, such as glass.

A.hard and tough(韧). B.hard but brittle.

"I would almost rather see you dead," Robert S. Cassatt, a leading banker(银行家)of Philadelphia, shouted when his twenty-year-old eldest daughter announced that she wanted to become an artist. In the 19th century,playing at drawing or painting on dishes was all right for a young lady, but serious work in art was not. And when the young lady's family ranked among(跻身于)the best of Philadelphia's social(社交界的)families, such an idea could not even be considered.

That was how Mary Cassatt, born 1844, began her struggle as an artist. She did not tremble before her father's anger. Instead, she opposed(抗拒)him with courage and at last made him change his mind. Mary Cassatt gave up her social position(社会地位)and all thought of a husband and a family, which in those times was unthinkable for a young lady. In the end, after long years of hard work and perseverance(坚持), she became America's most important woman artist and the internationally recognized leading woman painter of the time.

B.He did not believe his daughter wanted to work seriously in art.

C.He believed an artist's life would be too hard for his daughter.

D.Ladies of good families simply did not become artists in those times.

76.What made Mary Cassatt's "struggle" to become a recognized artist especially hard?

A.She was a woman.

B.Her father opposed her.

C.She had no social position.

D.She did not come from an artist's family.

77.What do we know about Mary Cassatt's marriage(婚姻)?

A.Her marriage failed because she never gave a thought to her husband and family.

B.She never married because she did not want to be just a wife and mother.

C.After marriage she decided to give up her husband rather than her career(事业).

D.She did not marry because for a lady of her social position to marry below her

was unthinkable.

78.What do we know about Robert Cassatt's character from the text?

A.He was a cruel man.

B.He was a stubborn(固执的)man.

C.He knew nothing about art.

D.He knew little about his daughter.

79.What do we know about Mary Cassatt's character?

A.She was brave in going against old ideas.

B.She got tired of always obeying her father.

C.She hated playing at drawing and painting.

D.She did not mind being poor at all.

Benin

Benin is one of the smallest African states. It lies in West Africa on the Gulf(海湾)of Guinea, to the south of Burkina Faso and Niger, between Togo on the west and Nigeria on the east.

Benin used to be called Dahomey and was controlled and ruled by France from 1893 to 1960, when it became independent(独立). In 1963 the army general Soglo overthrew(推翻)the first president Maga. Soglo set up an army government and called himself head of state in 1965, but was overthrown and replaced(取代)by a civilian(非军人)government in 1967. In December 1969 Benin had another change of power with the army again taking over(接管). In May 1970, Maga and two other men set up a new government, with each of them acting as president in turn for two years. However, half a year after Maga turned over power to the second man Ahomadegbe, the three-man government was overthrown by the army once more and General Kerekou became president. In November 1975 Kerekou changed the name of the nation from Dahomey to Benin, Benin being the name of a 17th century kingdom covering the same place.Kerekou also announced that Benin would be a People's Republic based on Marxism-Leninism.

81.Which of the following maps shows rightly the positions of Benin and its neighbouring countries?(Bn=Benin ; Tg=Togo ; Nr=Niger ; BF=Burkina Faso ; Na=Nigeria ; GG=Gulf of Guinea)
