7、根据下面材料，回答题：
Though it is mere 1 to 3 percent of the population, the upper class possesses at least 25 percent of the nation's wealth. This class has two segments: upper-upper and lower-upper. Basically, the up-per-upper class is the "old rich"--families that have been wealthy for several generations--an aristocracy of birth and wealth. Their names are in the Social Register, a listing of acceptable members of high society. A few are known across the nation, such as the Rockefellers, Roosevelts, and Vander-bilts. Most are not visible to the general public. They live in grand seclusion (深居简出), drawing their income from the investment of their inherited wealth. In contrast, the lower-upper class is the" new rich". Although they may be wealthier than some of the old rich ; the new rich have hustled ( 急,于做) to make their money like everybody else beneath their class. Thus their prestige is generally
lower than that of the old rich, who have not found it necessary to lift a finger to make their money, and who tend to look down upon the new rich.
However its wealth is acquired, the upper class is very, very rich. They have enough money and leisure time to cultivate an interest in the arts and to collect rate books, painting, and sculpture. They generally live in exclusive areas, belong to exclusive social clubs, communicate with each other, and marry their own kind--all of which keeps them so distant from the masses that they have been called
the out-of-sight class. More than any other class, they tend to be conscious of being members of aclass. They also command an enormous amount of power and influence here and abroad, as they hold many top government positions, run the Council on Foreign Relations, and control multinational corporations. The actions affect the lives of millions.
All the following statements are true EXCEPT that__________.
A．the upper-upper class is of aristocratic origin
B．the "old rich" enjoy higher prestige than the "new rich"
C．the "old rich" isolate themselves and lead a lonely life
D．the upper class owns at least a quarter of the country's wealth
8、 Words _________ meaning, as we all know.
A．convince
B．convey
C．contribute
D．conquer

Archaeology，like many academic words，comes from Greek and mealls，more or less，“the study of old things”．So，it is really a part of the study of history．However，most historians use paper evidence，such as letters，paintings and photographs，but archaeologists(考古学家)learn from the objects left behind by the humans of long a 90．Normally．these are the hard materials that don’t breakdown or disappear very quickly-things like human bones and objects made from stone and metal．It is very unusual to find anything more than the hard evidence of history--normally，the bacteria(细菌)in the air eat away at soft materials，like bodies，clothes and things made of wood．Occasion-ally，things are different．
In 1984，two men made an amazing discovery while working in a bog called Lindow Moss，in the north of England．A bog is a very wet area of earth，with a lot of plants growing in it．It can be like a very big and very thick vegetable soup--walk in the wrong place and you can sink and disappear for-ever．The men were working when one of them saw something sticking out-a human foot! Naturally，the men called the police，who then found the rest of the body．Was it a case of murder?

10、51．Without any doubt, Brazil is one of the biggest soccer countries in the world． For millions of Brazilians, soccer is a "way of life" and plays an important role in their social life．

The way soccer is played inBrazil is unique． Its style is the result of the rhythm and coordination from the Afro-Brizilians． This unique quality was a characteristic of slaves that developed the capoeira,Brazilian martial arts and samba, which are characterized by footsteps to dance or to play under the rhythm of African drums．
53．The Brazil soccer team was the first team to win the World CuR five times in 1985, 1962, 1970,1994, and 2002． Also Brazil has more professional soccer teams them any other country in the world． 54．Great players such as Pele, Garrincha, Zico, Romario and Ronaldo started playing soccer on dirt fields
under poor conditions．
They turned into very good players known all over the world, which also madeBrazil very famous．
55．Many poor boys are dreaming of becoming the next Pele or Ronaldo and because of this, they promote the national soccer culture even more． Dreaming about soccer is a motivation for millions of children, who want to escape from their poverty． They combine the fun of soccer with living in poverty．
It's even so that the soccer culture has a bigger influence on the Brazilian life than, for example, politics or economics．
