In the summer of 1978 an English farmer was driving his tractor through a field of wheat when he discovered that some of his wheat was lying flat on the ground.The flattened wheat formed a circle about six meters across.Around this circle were four smaller circles of flattened wheat.The five circles were in a formation like five dots.During the following years,farmers in England found the strange circles in their fields more and more often.
The circles are called“crop circles”because they appear in the fields of grain—usually wheat or corn.The grain in the circles lies flat on the ground but is never broken;it continues to grow,and farmers can later harvest it.Farmers always discover the crop circles in the morning,so the circles probably form at night.They appear only in the months from May to September.
At first,people thought that the circles were a hoax.Probably young people were making them as a joke,or farmers were making them to attract tourists.To prove that the circles were a hoax,people tried to make circles exactly like the ones that farmers had found.They couldn’t do it.They couldn’t enter a field of grain without leaving tracks,and they couldn’t flatten the grain without breaking it.
Many people believe that beings from outer space are making the circles to communicate with us from far away and that the crop circles are messages from them.
Scientists who have studied the crop circles suggested several possibilities.Some scientists say that a downward rush of wind leads to the formation of the circles—the same downward rush of air that sometimes causes an airplane to crash.Other scientists say that forces within the earth cause the circles to appear.There is one problem with all these scientific explanations:crop circles often appear in formations,like the fivedot formation.It is hard to believe that any natural force could form those.

One of the things to be learnt in a foreign language is guessing all the time what kind of thing to come when listening to someone talking. People do this all the time in their own language, so it is necessary (必要的) to do this in a foreign language, too. Here are some examples.

2. "I feel so tired these days."" I think you'd better…"
3."Of course, she never stops talking. She is one of the most…"
You can see from the above three examples that the context (上下文) helps a lot in understanding what is being talked about. So "guessing "is very important in understanding English, especially (尤其)spoken English.

文化教育类[2019·辽宁卷] C[来源:Z*xx*k.Com]
If Confucius(孔子)were still alive today and could celebrate his September 28 birthday with a big cake, there would be a lot of candles. He'd need a fan or a strong wind to help him put them out.
While many people in China will remember Confucius on his special day, few people in the United States will give him a passing thought. It's nothing personal. Most Americans don't even remember the birthdays of their own national heroes.
But this doesn't mean that Americans don't care about Confucius. In many ways he has become a bridge that foreigners must cross if they want to reach a deeper understanding of China.
In the past two decades, the Chinese studies programs have gained huge popularity in Western universities. More recently, the Chinese government has set up Confucius Institutes in more than 80 countries. These schools teach both Chinese language and culture. The main courses of Chinese culture usually include Chinese art, history and philosophy(哲学).Some social scientists suggest that Westerners should take advantage of the ancient Chinese wisdom to make up for the drawbacks of Western philosophy. Students in the United States, at the same time, are racing to learn Chinese. So they will be ready for life in a world where China is an equal power with the United States. Businessmen who hope to make money in China are reading books about Confucius to understand their Chinese customers.

【要点综述】尽管东西方纪念孔子的方式不同,孔子在西方仍受到推崇。世界各地的孔子学院受到了西方人的欢迎。这成为了解中国文化的桥梁。
64. B 写作意图题。作者开篇提出,如果孔子活到今天,按照西方点蜡烛庆祝他的生日,吹蜡烛是一件麻烦的事情。作者以这个作为开场白,目的是吸引读者。C有一定的干扰性。作者在后面讲述了西方人不会这么做,这并不代表他们不尊重孔子,由此我们排除C。
65.

66. D 主旨大意题。全文讲述了孔子学院在西方的受欢迎程度。它架起了东方文化向西方输送的桥梁,因此是古老的思想家与未来的结合。C有一定的干扰性。本文介绍了孔子思想在西方国家的传播,因此C的范围过大。
67. C 文章出处题。本文介绍了孔子学院在西方的盛行,因此属于报道类文章,应该是在报纸里出现。

If you do not use your arm or your legs for some time, they become weak; when you start using them again, they slowly become strong again. Everybody knows that. Yet many people do not seem to know that memory works in the same way. When someone says that he has a good memory, he really means that he keeps his memory in practice by using it. When someone else says that his memory is poor, he really means that he does not give it enough chance to become strong. If a friend says that his arms and legs are weak, we know that it is his own fault(过错). But if he tells us that he has a poor memory, many of us think that his parents are to blame(受责备), and few of us know that it is just his own fault. Have you ever found that some people can’t read or write but usually they have better memories? This is because they cannot read or write and they have to remember things; they cannot write down in a little notebook. They have to remember days, names, songs and stories; so their memory is the whole time being exercised. So if you want to have a good memory, learn from the people: Practice remembering.
