   在下列短文中有十个空白，每个空白有四个选项。根据上下文要求选出最佳答案，并将最佳答案前选项字母写在答题纸上。
If we were asked what we were doing a year ago, we would probably have to say that we couldn’t remember. But if we kept a book and had written in it an account of   11  we did each day, we should be able to give an answer  12  the question.
It is the same with history. Many things have been   13  because we do not have any written account of them. Sometimes men did   14  a record of the most important happenings in their country, but often it was destroyed by fire or in a war. Sometimes   15  was never any written record at  16  because the people of that   17  and place did not know  18  to write. For example ,we know a good deal about the people who lived in China 4,000 years ago, because they could write and leave written records for those who   19   after them. But we know almost  20  about the people who lived even 2,000 years ago in central Africa, because they had not learned to write.

Ⅲ. Reading Comprehension (30 points, 2 points for each)
阅读下列短文，并从下列短文的问题后所给的四个选项中选出一个最佳答案，并将最佳答案前选项字母写在答题纸上。
Passage one
Questions 21 to 25 are based on the following passage.
Some people learn a second language easily. Other people have trouble learning a new language. How can you help yourself learn a new language, such as English? There are several steps to make learning English a little easier and more interesting.
The first step is to feel positive about learning English. If you believe that you can learn, you will learn.  Be patient.  You do not have to understand everything all at once.  It is natural to make mistakes when you learn something new.  We can learn from our mistakes.  In other words, do not worry about taking risks.
The second stop is to practice your English.  For example, write a diary every day. You will get used to writing in English, and you will feel comfortable expressing your ideas in English.  After several weeks, you will see that your writing is improving. In addition, you must speak English every day. You can practice with your classmates outside class. You will all make mistakes, but gradually you will become comfortable communicating in English.
The third step is to keep a record of your language learning. You can write this in your diary. After each class, think about what you did. Did you answer a question correctly? Did you understand something the teacher explained? Perhaps the lesson was difficult, but you tried to understand it.  Write these in your diary.
You must be positive about learning English and believe that you can do it.  It is important to practice every day and make a record of your achievements.  You will enjoy learning English, and you will have more confidence in yourself.
