They' re putting lots of small, hightech machines under the pyramid to try to unlock some of its secrets. For thousands of years, people have tried to uncover the secrets of the pyramids.The people who built the pyramids made lots of secret doors and rooms to stop robbers from finding the treasures inside. However, there always have been some smart thieves in history. Now, almost all of Egypt，s pyramids have been robbed, including the Great Pyramid of Khufu, which is the largest pyramid in the world. It is the only one of the ancient wonders of the world that is still standing.In AD 820, an Arab king named Abdullah AL Manum got a group of workers to dig their way into the Great Pyramid and have a look. Inside the pyramid, they found three roomsthe Queen's Chamber, the Grand Gallery and the King，s Chamber. But to their surprise, the men didn't find the treasures they wanted. The Queen's and King，s Chambers were both empty! Where were the King，s mummy and his treasures? Had someone already taken them away? The huge stone doors at the pyramid's entrance were still closed when AL Manum's men went inside. How had the thieves got in and out?Since then, many people have gone inside the Great Pyramid to have a look or to try to take things. But still, no other chambers or walkways have been found.In 2002, an American team made the most recent visit to the Great Pyramid. Scientists sent a robot into the pyramid, but they only found a mysterious locked stone door.21.

Unlocking the Doors of History of the PyramidBIn the past three years, according to a study, the number of people who study parttime in England has decreased by 42%the equivalent (等同的)of 106,000 fewer students. Almost half a million students were studying parttime in the past three years, with most of them working at the same time and studying vocational subjects, according to Universities UK(UUK), which conducted the research. The report, which was requested by ministers, said, “There seems to be many factors responsible for it: the current economic climate limiting employer support for further study and putting pressure on household budgets, changing pathways to higher education and the current changes to the funding system in England and associated increase in tuition fees. Factors such as the rise of apprenticeships(学徒制)，increase in private providers (whether for profit or not for profit), and a shift to online learning also have an impact.”Professor Sir Eric Thomas, chairman of the review and vicepresident of Bristol University, said, “The reality is that the UK needs more graduates and relies heavily on parttime higher education to meet these fast changing skill needs in a fast changing world. We ignore parttime study's transformative power for individuals and society. While parttime students are a great success story for the UK, something is going wrong. In England in particular, numbers are reducing and do not look like recovering. The situation is highly plex. This review is the beginning of a process of universities working together and with partners to take steps in dealing with this issue. We cannot and must not give up on these students.Rachel Wenstone, vicepresident for higher education at the National Union of Students (NUS), said, NUS we les this report and we are pleased that this issue is getting the attention it deserves. It is incredibly disheartening to see the number of parttime students decreasing. The sector took responsibility in analyzing the issues facing parttime students and it's now time for the sector to take responsibility for dealing with the problems. ”The university，s minister, David Willetts, said, uParttime study brings enormous benefits to individuals, the economy and employers. Tuition fee loans are now available to new parttime students. We will also change the rules which stop peoplefrom getting financial support to learn new skills in engineering, technology and puter science parttime. This will make sure that the nation has the skills we need to keep our businesses ahead in the global race. Institutions must also play their part to encourage more parttime study by emphasizing the benefits to future students. I am calling on all universities to make sure that parttime options are highly visible on websites and detailed information about the courses is also up to date. ”24. Which of the following is NOT the reason for the decline of the number of parttime students in the UK?A. The tuition fees have increased.B. Many people choose to learn on the Internet.C. People are too busy with their work and daily lives.D. Families are short of money to let their members study further.25. What does Eric Thomas really want to express in Paragraph 2?A.

Universities in the UK play a key role in attracting parttime students.26. How does Wenstone feel about the present parttime study in the UK?A. Puzzled.B. Satisfied.27.C. Optimistic.Which of the followingD. Discouraged.can be the best title for the passage?A. The UK sees the decline of its parttime studentsB. Parttime students receive more attention nowadaysC. The UK es up with ways to attract more parttime studentsD. The decline of parttime students has effects on the UKCYou，ve probably heard that brickandmortar retail （实体零售）is in trouble. Even industry giants are closing hundreds of stores. Given retaiT s gradual change to mobile and emerce（电子商务），you may be wondering, “What will retail look like in the future?” Nobody knows. But here are a few things you can expect to see based on current technology.Ultrafast delivery is ing. Today, the normal practice is twoday delivery. But if you，ve been paying attention, you know that's changing. In fact, a surprisingly high 25% of consumers said that they would abandon their orders if oneday delivery wasn，t available. Of course, that，s just the beginning. Twohour delivery is ing in the foreseeable future, and Amazon has already been trying 30minute delivery.Your kitchen will resupply itself. You won，t have to worry about running out of essentials like coffee, pet food or snacks because your containers will sense stock（库 存）levels and replace those items without you having to lift a finger. No more waking up to find your coffee store is empty or lastminute trips to the grocery store because you forgot to buy pet food.Know exactly what's in stock and where. Have you ever gone to a store hoping to buy something, only to learn that they were out of stock? A new feature from Google Home allows people to ask Google Assistants to find instock products at the closest store. For example: "Google, where can I find the Nintendo Switch console?” An assistant will tell you how many stores have it right then and how close they are. Of course, it isn，t currently available for all stores in all locations, but you can already see a future when it has bee standard.Convenience, experience, and options一retail will take on a new look. 28.

How will new technology change the world?C. How will we run the retail trade in the future?D. What benefits will hightech bring in the future?D“A lie can travel half way around the world before the truth can put its boots on. ” That quote is attributed to Mark Twain. In today's Internet world of ”fake news”, lies spread even faster than the truth is having trouble finding its boots.To make matters worse, most young people get news from social media sites where facts are mixed with rumors, halftruths and plete lies. This has led to young people being confused. In the latest PISA, which tested 15yearold worldwide on academic subjects, fewer than one in ten of the examinees were reported to be able to distinguish fact from opinion. A Stanford University study showed that students at all levels of education could not tell real news from fake news. In one instance, 80 percent thought that a paid advertisement was a real news story.Fake news is spread by people who have a prejudice. They want to influence public opinion either for or against something or someone. It is important, then, for young people to recognize when they are being used and to be skeptical of online information.Traditional media, such as newspapers and television, are still the more credible sources of information. Reporters are professionally trained to look for facts, and editors have the job of making sure those facts are correct. However, if you get most of your information online, you have to be your own editor. In that case, the first thing to do is to look at the writer of a post. Is this person known to be credible? Does the site where you read the post has a prejudice? Next, look for other sources from mainstream media to confirm the information. In other words, by putting on yourtruth boots you won，t be fooled into chasing lies.32. Why is the quote mentioned in ParagraphA. To give a definition.C. To offer background information.Twain.1?B. T
