高考真题三

PART A Reading Aloud（模仿朗读）

The Road tells us stories of cities, stories of wars, all passed on through travelers‟ tales. The hardest part of the Silk Road journey was crossing the vast expanse of desert, called “The Sea of Death”. The Mogao Cave is an intersection between the edge of the Silk Road and the starting point of the “Desert of Death”. The numerous stories of the Silk Road tale were hidden in the desert. The desert sand wind has two different sides, and the desert does not leave any traces. However, uncovering the Silk Road‟s stories is similar to counting the grains of sand in the desert.

Two Problems

During his first year at the university, one day, Tom arrived late at one of the Professor Brown‟s classes. On the blackboard were two maths problems. He thought they were the homework and copied them down. A few days later, Tom went to Professor Brown‟s office and apologized to him for taking so long to finish the homework. The problems seemed to be a little harder to do than usual. He asked Professor Brown if he still wanted his homework. He told Tom to throw it on the desk covered with a lot of papers. Tom feared that his homework would be there forever. One Sunday morning, about six weeks later, Tom heard a heavy knock at the front door. It was Professor Brown. He rushed in with Tom‟s homework at his hand. He said to Tom excitedly, “I‟ve just written an introduction for one of your papers, read it so that we can get it published.” For a minute, Tom had no idea what he was talking about. Tom was later told that two problems he copied down as homework were two famous maths problems that have never been worked out. For the first time, Tom realized that the two problems have something special in them.

Tom was a university student. One day, he was late for professor Brown‟s class. He then copied down two maths problems on the blackboard which he thought as the homework. A few days later, Tom handed in the paper to Professor Brown and apologized for his delay. Prof. Brown asked him to throw the paper on the desk with other papers. Several weeks later, Prof. Brown came to his home in excitement. He told Tom that Tom had worked out the problems that had never been worked out. Tom then realized that the two maths problems he copied down as homework were very special.
