The Macau Museum is a historical and cultural museum with a vast number of objects of great historical
value, which demonstrates the way of life and cultures of the various communities which have been
inhabited the city for ages. The Macau Museum was opened on 18th April 1998, consisting of two
underground levels and a third one above the fortress" top platform where the old Meteorological
Services is housed. The architectural character and special configuration of the architecture has been
retained and preserved.
B. Maritime Museum
If the history of Macau is really connected to the sea, there is no better place for the Maritime Museum,
than the Square of the Barra Pagoda, dedicated to the Taoist goddess "A-MA", the protector of
fishermen, and also believed to be the place where the Portuguese first landed. The precise spot is where
the Maritime Museum is located, the building is in the shape of a sailing ship anchored in the waters of the
Inner Harbour.
C. Wine Museum
This 1400 square-metre space is divided into a number of areas (Historical information/Wine
Cellar/Museum and Exhibitions), using maps, texts, photos, tiles and videos, among other things to relate
the history of wine. The aim of each section is not only to provide information regarding wine and
grapevines, but also to recreate the atmosphere of the production of wine, showing the visitor the modern
and traditional tools connected to wine production.
D. Grand Prix Museum
Opened 1993 to celebrate the 40th anniversary of the Macau Grand Prix, which features a number of
automobile and motorbike races and takes place every year in November. It started in 1954 due to the
enthusiasm of a group of Macau residents and the support of the authorities. Today it is an international
sports event that attracts thousands of tourists and racing enthusiasts to Macau, to watch the classic
"Guia Race" and the "Formula 3 Grand Prix". As it takes place on a street circuit, which inevitably leads
to a comparison with Monte Carlo, the Macau Grand Prix has been developing into a race that, due to
the exactness and the need for precision which it imposes on the drivers, has had the participation of
great names of the motor racing participating and which has also served as a launching platform for many
other names, the visitor will certainly recognize while visiting the Grand Prix Museum.
E. Macau Museum of Art
Under the management of the Civic and Municipal Affairs Bureau, the Macau Museum of Art is the only
art museum in Macau, and provides the largest space dedicated to visual arts. It is situated in the Cultural Centre of Macau in the Outer Harbour area, and was inaugurated on 19 March 1999, with a total area
of more than 10,000 square meters and expositive capacity of almost 4,000 square meters. The artistic
works and cultural artifacts include Chinese Calligraphy and Paintings, Seals, Ceramics, Copperwares,
Western paintings, Contemporary Arts, Photography artworks, and other significant collections.
F. Handover Gifts Museum of Macau
The Handover Gifts Museum of Macau is located next to the Macau Cultural Centre in Avenida Xian
Xing Hai (NAPE). The location of the Museum is also the area that was used for the Handover
Ceremony on 20th December 1999 in which Macau was returned to the Mainland. When the hall was
dismantled after the ceremony the area became part of the Macau Cultural Centre. The Handover Gifts
Museum of Macau was opened December 2004. The main aim of the Museum is to commemorate the
handover for its significance in Macau"s modern history. The inauguration of the Museum on the 5th
anniversary of the handover is also indeed significant and momentous.

阅温度理解。     A Father’s day is a day set aside for honouring fathers in church services and in the home. It’s
celebrated in the U.S. in the third Sunday of June. This idea was begun by Mrs John Bruces Dodd,
who in 1909 persuaded an organization in Washington to
     salute fathers with special church services. The idea was officially agreed to by President Woodrow
Wilson in 1916. In 1924, President Calvin Coolidge suggested national celebration of the day to
form closer relations between fathers and their children, and to impress upon fathers the full measure
of their duties. The red or white rose is recognized as the official Father’s Day flower. 1. Father’s Day, at first, meant ______. A. to honor fathers in church services and in the home

阅读理解。     How words came into being is unknown. All we assume (推测) is that some early men invented
certain sounds, in one way or another, to express thoughts and feelings, actions and things, so that they
could talk with each other. Later they agreed upon certain signs, called letters, which could be put
together to show those sounds and which could be written down.Those sounds, whether spoken or
written in letters, are called words.
    The power of words, then, lies in their associations-the things they bring up to our minds. Words
become filled with meaning for us by experience; and the longer we live, the more certain words bring
back to us the happy and sad events of our past; and the more we read and learn, the more the number
of words that mean something to us increases.
    Great writers are those who not only have great thoughts but also express these thoughts in words
which have powerful effects on our minds and feelings. This clever use of words is what we call literary
style (文体). Above all, the real poet is a master of words. He can express his meaning in words which
sing like music, and which by their position and association can move men to tears. We should therefore
learn to choose our words carefully and use them correctly, or they will make our speech silly and
common.1.We learn from the text that language might have begun with ________.A. expressions      
B. actions
C .signs  
D. sounds2.What is mainly discussed in Paragraph 2?A. The learning of new words.
B. The importance of old words.
C. The relation of human experience with words.
D. The gradual change and development of words.3. In the last paragraph, what does the author suggest that we should do?A. Use words skilfully.
B. Make musical speeches.
C. Learn poems by heart.
D. Associate with listeners.

阅读理解。     Tom goes everywhere with Catherine Green, a 54-year-old secretary. He moves around her office at work and goes shopping with her. "Most people don"t seem to mind Tom," says Catherine, who thinks he
is wonderful. "He"s my fourth child," she says. She may think of him and treat him that way as her son. He moves around buying his food, paying his health bills and his taxes, but in fact Tom is a dog.
      Catherine and Tom live in Sweden, a country where everyone is expected to lead an orderly life
according to rules laid down by the government, which also provides a high level of care for its people.
This level of care costs money.

more taxes. Some people are paying as much as 500 Swedish kronor in taxes a year for the right to keep
their dog, money that is spent by the government on dog hospitals and sometimes medical treatment for a
dog that falls ill. However, most such treatment is expensive, so owners often decide to offer health and
even life premium for their dog.
      In Sweden dog owners must pay for any damage their dog does. A Swedish Kennel Club official
explains what this means: if your dog runs out on the road and gets hit by a passing car you, as the owner, have to pay for any damage done to the car, even if your dog has been killed in the accident.1. Catherine pays taxes for Tom because             .    A. Tom follows her everywhere
