There are many unsolved mysteries in life, even though science, technology, and research have come a very long way. Let’ s enjoy the following unsolved mysteries.

How could we tell time if there were no watches or clocks anywhere in the world？
The sun was probably the world’s first “clock”, except in the far north, where the Eskimos(爱斯基摩人) live. There, it’s dark most of the winter, and light most of the summer. But in most of the world, people have used the sun for a clock. Even today, if you don't have a clock, you still know that when the sun shines, it's day, and when it's dark, it's night. The sun can also tell you if it's morning, noon, or afternoon．
People who live near the sea can tell time from the tides. In the daytime, for about six hours，the water rises higher and higher on the beach. And then it goes down and down for about six hours. The same thing happens again at night. There are two high tides and two low tides every 24 hours．
Seamen on a ship learn how to tell time by looking at the moon and the stars. The whole sky is their clock．
In some places in the world the wind comes up at about the same time every day or changes direction or stops blowing. In these places the wind can be the clock．
A sand clock is an even better clock. If you had fine dry sand in a glass shaped like the one in the picture，you would have what is called an hourglass. The sand in the hourglass goes from the top part to the bottom part in exactly one hour. When the hourglass is turned over, the sand will take another hour to go back again.
( )41. According to the passage, there are _____ ways to tell time besides the clock and watch．
A. 3 B. 4 C. 5 D. 7
( )42. The Eskimos in the far north can't use the sun for a clock because _____．
A. they know very little about the sun
B. the sun there never goes down in winter
C. it's too cold for them to go out to watch the sun
D. it has long dark winters and long light summers
( )43. The underlined word “tides” in the passage means _____．
A. 洋流 B. 潮汐 C. 海啸 D. 波浪
( )44. In which page of a newspaper can you most probably read this passage？
A. News． B. Business． C. Science． D. Advertisement．
( )45. What's the best title for the passage？
A. Different Ways to Tell Time B. Useful Machines to Tell Time
C. The History of the Clock D. The Development of the Clock

In today’s world, many people seem to be hungry for money. Money does have its most useful influence on 61 poor people. But even if a person has already got plenty of money, it doesn’t

If money were everything, all millionaires（百万富翁）would already have real love, true friendship, a good health and a long 63 . However, this is not always correct.

第五部分写作（共两节，满分35分）
第一节：阅读下列短文, 根据短文中的信息完成文后表格。（共5小题,每小题2分,满分10分）
A new study of 8,000 young people in the Journal of Health and Social Behavior shows that although love can make adults live healthily and happily, it is a bad thing for younger people. Puppy love(早恋) may bring stress for young people and can lead to depression(忧郁症). The study shows that girls become more depressed than boys, and younger girls are the worst of all.
The possible reason for the connection between love and higher risk of depression for girls is “loss of self”. According to the study, even though boys would say “lose themselves in a romantic relationship”, this “loss of self ” is much more likely to lead to depression when it happens to girls. Young girls who have romantic relationships usually like hiding their feelings and opinions. They won’t tell that to their parents.
Dr. Marianm Kaufman, an expert on young people problems, says 15% to 20% young people will have depression during their growing. Trying romance often causes the depression. She advises kids not to jump into romance too early. During growing up, it is important for young people to build strong friendships and a strong sense of self. She also suggests parents should encourage their kids to keep close to their friends, attend more interesting school activities and spend enough time with family.
Parents should watch for signs of depression, eating or mood changes, and if they see signs from their daughter or son, they need to give help. The good news is that the connection between romance and depression seems to become weak with age. Love will always make us feel young, but only maturity(成熟) gives us a chance to avoid its bad side effects.
Theme Puppy love may cause 71 .
Findings The study shows that boys become more depressed than girls. May because that girls who fall in love tend to 72 their feelings and opinions
Advises *Build strong friendships and a strong sense of self instead of jumping into romance too early. *Enjoy themselves by 73 interesting school activities..
Ways *Parents should pay 74 to the changes in their children’s eating and moods and offer help whenever it is necessary. *Maturity helps us get rid of the bad side 75 .
Conclusion Love when you become mature enough.
