20、e used once. Note that there is one word more than you need. A. reasons B. really C. farmers D. express E. shelterF. hunters G. pleasant H. supplied I. warm J. discoveredThe earliest men did not have much time for art; they faced many dangers, and hunting for food took up almost all their time. But

21、after many thousands of years perhaps a million years or more they became very good 41 , and that gave them a little free time which they could use for other things. A few of them began to paint on the walls of the caves where they lived. Many early artists painted animals, because these were the mo

22、st important things in their lives. Animals 42 food to keep them living, and skins to keep them 43 . Like painters today, the early artists possibly painted for many 44 . Perhaps they wanted to give their cave a little brightness and color; perhaps they had a few special ideas which they could 45 mo

23、st easily in a painting; perhaps they just wanted to spend a little time in a _46 way. Many of them believed in magic, and they often drew animals which were caught. They hoped that by drawing these things, they would make them 47 appear. People have 48 cave paintings in many parts of the world. The

24、 earliest that we know about are in Europe. Because of the cold weather, the early men in Europe used the caves for _49_; in many warmer parts of the world this was not necessary.

25、thirty thousand years ago.III. Reading ComprehensionSection ADirections: For each blank in the following passage there are four words or phrases marked A, B, C and D. Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context.Generally speaking, most people are frightened of making public

26、 speech. Losing face is the greatest _50_ and failing to appeal to the audience comes a close second. Most people have plenty of insecurities, and public speaking seems like a situation that will bring all the _51_ feelings out. Some people are always expected of highly and they will be under pressu

27、re to be _52_. Then they may still feel unsatisfied with their performance although the general public have already been _53_ by their speech.While lively people will feel less fear, it does not mean they will _54_ do the job better. On the contrary, in many cases some very shy people do manage to p

28、resent _55_ speeches. In fact, _56_ is not what mainly decides whether you do well at a public speech. Regardless of what you are like in real life, the key seems to be to act yourself.Doing public speaking as actual acting, performing the lines of a character other than yourself, does not make you

29、succeed. While politicians may limit damage by having carefully prepared, acting again and again _57_, there is always a hidden _58_ among the audience that what they say might not be correct.Likewise, many speeches of great speakers in history are far from _59_. The audience may on the spot be pers

30、uaded by them while afterwards they even cant remember what they have heard and have a feeling of being _60_.Although, as Earl Spencer proved at his sister Princess Dianas funeral, it is possible both to prepare every word and to _61_ naturally, prepared speeches rarely _62_ in public. But, only bei

31、ng yourself doesnt help get rid of all the fears either. If you spoke as if you were in your own kitchen, it would be too _63_. The distance between the speaker and the audience would be too short to strengthen the need for normal communication and information exchange, which are the main _64_ of a
