how at first they treated the poor Spaniards badly,•how they afterwards agreed, disagreed, unired, separated, and how at last the Spaniards were forced to use violence with them; how they gave in to the spaniards, how honestly the Spaniards used them ---- a history, if it were entered into, as full of variety and wonderfulaccidents as my own part ---- particularly, also, as to their battles with the Caribbeans, who landed several times upon the Island, and as to the improvement they made upon the Island itself, and how five of them made an attempt upon the main land, and brought away eleven men and five women prisoners, by which, at my coming, I found about twenty young children on the Island．Here I stayed bout 20 days, left them supplies of all necessary things, and particularly of arms, powder, shot, cloths, tools, and two workmen, which I brought from England with me, namely a carpenter and a smith．Besides this, I shared the Island into parts with them, reserved to myself the property of whole  but gave them such parts resoeetively as they agreed on; and having settled all things with them and encouraged them not to leave the place, I left them there．From then on I landed the Brazils, from where I sent a bark, which I bought there, with more people to the island; and in it, besides other supplies, I sent seven women, being such persons as I found proper for service, or for wives to such as would take them．As to the Englishmen, I promised them to send them some women from England, with a good cargo（船货） of necessaries, if they would apply themselves to planting ---- which I afterwards could not perform．And the fellows proved very honest and diligent after they were mastered and had their properties set apart for them．I sent them also from the Brazils five cows, three of them being big with calf, some sheep, and some pigs, which when I came again were considerably increased．But all these things, with an account how 300 Caribbeans came and invaded（入侵） them, and ruined their plantations, and how they fought with that whole number twice, and were at first defeated, and one of them killed; but at last a storm destroying most of their enemies’ boats, they destroyed almost all the rest, and renewed and recovered the possession of their plantation, and still lived upon the Island．All these things, with some very surprising incidents in some new adventures of my own,  for ten years more, I may perhaps give a further account of the story．61．From Paragraph l, we know _______ ． A．the Spaniards were always getting along well with the villains B．the Spaniards were always the rulers of the island C．the Spaniards and the villains both ruled the island peacefully D．the Spaniards and the villains once had battles witll each other62．In Paragraph 2, the place where I stayed was probably ________． A．a wild island                     B．a deserted downtown C．a primitive supermarket            D．a new city63．The underlined word “respectively” in the third paragraph probably means ______ ． A．separately       B．particularly     C．specially          D．surprisingly 64．The writer of the story once went to _______． A．Japan and Brazil                   B．England and Brazil C．France and Spain                  D．Korea and Caribbean65．From the story, we can judge the Writer might be _______ ． A．an invader       B．a carpenter      C．an adventurer        D．a prisonerBAmerican Girl It’s packed with the things that matter most to girls: party plans, games, crafts and girl-to-girl advice． American Girl is an appealing, age-appropriate teen magazine that allows young girls to be themselves． The magazine features fun contests, puzzles, giggles, and more!

London, a poet described her paintings as “ a ribbon （丝带）around a bomb”．Such comments seem to suggest Kahlo had a big influence on the art world of her time．Sadly, she is actually a much bigger name today than she was during her time．Born in 1907 in a village near Mexico City , Kahlo suffered from polio（小儿麻痹症）at the age of seven．Her spine （脊柱）become bent as she grew older．Then, in 1925, her back was broken in several places in a school-bus accident．Throughout the rest of her life, the artist had many operations, but noting was able to cure the terrible pain in her back．However, the accident had an unexpected side effect．While lying in her bed recovering, Kahlo taught herself to paint．In 1929, she got married to Diego Rivera, another famous Mexican artist．Rivera’s strong influences on Kahlo’s style can be seen in her early works, but her later works from the 1940s, known today as her best works, show less influence from her husband．Unfortunately, her works did not attract much attention in the 1930s and1940s, even in her home country．Her first one-woman show in Mexico was not held until 1953．For more than a decade after her death in 1954, Kahlo’s works remained largely unnoticed by the world, but in the 1970s her works began to gain international fame at last．69．What does the phrase “a much bigger name” in paragraph 1 most nearly mean? A．a far better artist                      B．a for more gifted artist C．a much stronger person                 D．a much more famous person70．The terrible pain Kahlo suffered was caused by         ． A．polio                               B．her bent spine C．back injuries                         D．the operations she had71．Kahlo’s style had become increasingly independent since the           ． A．1950s       B．1940s             C．1940s      D．1970s71．What is author’s attitude toward Kahlo? A．Devotion             B．Sympathy      C．Worry         D．EncouragementDThe rate of population growth is fastest in underdeveloped countries．In these countries a high birthrate is accompanied by a lowered death rate thanks to improved standards of public health．Ideally it should be possible to counter balance the effect of a reduced death rate by an increased use of family planning．In practice, however, population control is a complex matter．Throughout history people have determined the size of their families according to the cultural values of their societies．Population control has long been a subject of discussion among researchers．Some have argued that the supply of good land is limited．In order to feed a large population, bad land must be cultivated and the good land overworked ．As a result, each person produces less in a given amount of time and this means a lower average income than could be obtained with a smaller population．Other researchers have argued that a large population gives more scope for the development of facilities such as sports, roads and railways, which are not likely to be built unless there is a big demand to justify them．Similarly, it can be argued that the public costs of society will not be so heavy to each individual if they are shared among the members of a large population．One of the difficulties in implementing birth control lies in the fact that official attitudes to population growth vary from cuntry to country．In underdeveloped countries where a large population is pressing hard upon the limits of food, space and natural resources, it will be the first concern of government to place a limit on the birthrate．In a well?developed society the problem may be more complex．A declining birthrate may lead to unemployment because it results in a shrinking market．Cities with a declining population may have to face the prospect of a shrinking tax base and a fall in land values．If there are fewer children going to school, teachers may be thrown out of work．When the pressure of population on housing declines, prices also decline and the building industry is weakened．Faced with considerations such as these, the government of a developed country may well prefer to see a slowly increasing population, rather than one which is stable or in decline．73．One reason for quick population increase in underdeveloped countries is that ． A．those countries encourage people to have large families B．people can get government support if they have more kids C．improved public health standards have reduced death rate greatly D．those countries have enough resources to support a large population74．The writer suggests that policy makers should consider cultural values ． A．in carrying out family planning B．in producing birth control drugs C．in improving public health standards D．in introducing birth control techniques75．A large population in an underdeveloped country may lead to ． A．a rise in work efficiency  B．a shortage of farm workers C．a decline in grain production  D．a reduction in average income76．Some peole believe control in developed countries may ． A．increase market demand  B．lower unemployment rate C．slow down economic growth  D．create more job opportunities77．According to the writer, developd countries prefer ． A．a strandstill population  B．a fast increasing population C．a slowly growing population  D．a steadily decreasing populationE●The first double hand transplant

restaurant, lost his hands and feet a decade ago to a bacteria infection．The donor was a 23-year-old man．●Asecond major storm in less than a week was blowing yesterday toward the Washington area,

Tony Blair’s appearance last month．●The head of the UN agency aiding Palestine refugees （难民）is warning a funding shortfall and appealing for another $100 million．Filippo Grandi says the money is
