It is ranging from geometric patterns to drawings of different animals and stylized human-like forms. The ancient lines can only be truly taken in from high in the air, leaving generations puzzled as to how these precise works could have been completed long before the documented invention of human flight.The Lines were first spotted when commercial airlines began flying across the Peruvian desert in the 1920,s. Who built them and what was their purpose? Are they roads, star pointers, maybe even a gigantic map? If the people who lived here 2,000 years ago had only a simple technology, how did they manage to construct such precise figures? Did they have a plan? These markings are like a vast puzzle.The Nazca Lines are the most outstanding group of geoglyphs in the world. There are also huge geoglyphs in Egypt, Malta, United States (Mississippi and California), Chile, Bolivia and in other countries. But the Nazca geoglyphs, because of their numbers, characteristics, dimensions and cultural continuity as they were made and remade throughout a certain history period, form the most impressive archeological (考古学的)group.The Nazca plain is unique for its ability to preserve the markings upon it, due to the combination of the climate (one of the driest on Earth, with only twenty minutes of rainfall per year) and the flat, stony ground which minimizes the effect of the wind at ground level. With no dust or sand to cover the plain and little rain or wind to erode (腐蚀)it, lines drawn here tend to stay drawn. These factors, combined with the existence of lighter-colored subsoil beneath the desert surface, provide a vast writing pad that is suited to the artist who wants to leave his mark eternal.1、 502. What can we know about the Nazca Lines from the first two paragraphs?A. They were built as a big map.B. They were formed by nature.C. They are ancient lines in caves.D. They are huge markings in a desert.2、504. How many factors make the Nazca Lines the most impressive?A. One. B. Two.C. Three. D. Four.3、506. Why are the Nazca Lines well preserved?A Because of the wind at ground level.B Because of the existence of soft soil.C. Because of the climate and geography.D. Because of the thick sand on the top.4、508. What does the underlined word “eternal” probably mean?A Non-stop. B. Ever-lasting.C. Real-life. D. High-end.22. （8 分） The Harvard Pre-College Program is a nice experience for high school students.

Across the world, countless amounts of time and money have been spent on researching a way to stop this terrible disease. But now, it seems like the answer could have been inside our own bodies the whole time.Recently, the Food and Drug Administration（FDA） in the US, a government agency that's responsible for healthcare, approved a new form of gene therapy（疗法）that could mean the end of a certain type of cancer.The therapy allows scientists to "train” the immune（有免疫力的）cells of sick patients to fight leukemia（白血病）一 a form of blood cancer that mostly affects young people.The exciting new treatment works by removing healthy immune cells from the patient, known as T-cells, which are then changed to be able to “hunt down” cancer cells.The cells are then put back into the patient before they begin to get rid of the patienfs leukemia over time, similar to how the body fights off other illnesses.“This is truly an exciting new day for canc
