Thousands of unsuspecting youths were kidnapped who were never to return to the land of their birth.The traffic in young boys became,in time,a great public scandal,and this is the way it had come about. America needed colonists badly.At first,many people had come willingly,attracted by tales of quick wealth and unlimited opportunity.But once they arrived,they found it to be a far rougher place than they had imagined.It was true that there was opportunity,but hard work was needed to make it pay off.Many of the new colonists,hoping for easy fortunes,were not used to the difficulties of hard physical labour. Nor could they manage the large farms by themselves.They needed help of every sort:for planting,for harvesting,for building their houses,etc.Some few skilled workers had come and set up shopsblacksmiths,carpenters,wheelwrights and so onbut they,too,were in need of help.Without apprentices and laborers,they could not possibly do all the work that the colonists required. British ship owners offered free transportation to all those who would come,in return for an agreement to work for seven years without wages.Thousands of immigrants accepted the offer. After seven years of service they were farmers in their own rightand needed help.So there was an increasing need for workers.When the captains could not get colonists any other way,they hired hoodlums to seize any young boys they could lay hands on. Over 100 000 youngsters were taken to America in this way.Kidnapping became such an open scandal that in 1682 the London Council passed a law forbidding any person under fourteen to do service without the knowledge and permission of his parents.36.What shocked the London citizens in the late 17th century?A.The British ship owners needed hands in their business.B.Hoodlums wandered in the dark streets of London.C.Many young boys turned to drugs and violence.D.Many young boys were captured and shipped to America.答案:D37.At first,many British people came to settle willingly in America because _.A.they didnt have to do physical work any moreB.they thought they could find jobs easily and soon make a fortuneC.they were desperately tired of the bad conditions in LondonD.they learned that skilled workers were badly needed there答案:B38.According to the passage,the colonists were in need of hands for the following reasons except that _.A.many rail tracks had to be builtB.there was a lot of work on the farmsC.many houses had to be builtD.there was a lot of work in various kinds of shops答案:A39.Why did thousands of immigrants sign the agreement to work for seven years without pay?A.Because they had no money to pay for their voyage to the New World.B.Because they could become farmers after seven years of hard work.C.Because they had no land of their own when they arrived in America.D.Because they were kidnapped and forced to sign it.答案:A40.The British government passed a law in 1682 because _.A.the ship owners had seized a great fortune by employing young boysB.it intended to stop young men under the age of 14 from workingC.the public strongly condemned the kidnapping of young boysD.it did not want to lose a lot of its young labourers答案:CB In East Africa there is a tribe of people called the Masai.They are tall and slim and carry long spears to guard their cattle against the attacking of lion or leopard(豹).These Africans move from place to place on the rolling(绵延起伏的) grasslands looking for suitable grazing(牧场) and water.Mboto is twelve years old.He helps his father drive the cattle.If the family decides to remain in one spot for a while, he helps gather sticks and thin branches to build a simple house.The sticks are placed in the ground in a circle.They are then bent inwards and joined at the top.Small branches and leaves fill the spaces.If it looks as if the family will stay longer than usual, then the inside walls are often plastered with cattle manure(粪便).For a door there is only a small opening to allow a person to enter.A thorn(刺)fence is built around the small house to keep cattle safe at night.Lions, leopards and hyenas(鬣狗)prowl(觅食)around after dark, so the cattle would be easily killed and eaten. When Mboto grows up into a man, he will become a true Masai warrior(勇士).He will have to join other warriors in the strange custom of drinking blood.The blood is taken from the neck of their cattle.It is mixed with milk and together with meat, becomes the main food for the men. The Masai have lived this way for thousands of years.The only change that seems to have affected their lives is the use of the transistor radio.It is quite common to see a young warrior with a pair of earphones listening to music while he is with the cattle.41.The underlined word “plastered” in the first paragraph means_.A.painted B.covered all over C.put up D.dotted答案:B42.What do the Masai spend most of their time doing?A.Hunting.
