Almost all of these caves have paintings on their ceilings or walls and they date from the 4th to 14th centuries. Wang Jinyu is an expert on these cave paintings (also called frescoes) and he says: We discovered frescoes containing scientific and technological content in almost all of the caves which have frescoes. What is remarkable about these cave paintings according to the Xinhua News Agency is that they provide evidence of scientific and technological inventions by ancient Chinese in maths, physics, chemistry, astronomy, geography, agronomy, architecture, textiles, traffic and transportation, arms and military equipment and medical sciences. If we want to find out what kind of technology people used in the past, we normally have to rely on archaeologists to find ruined buildings and parts of tools or instruments or machines. Archaeologists then try to reconstruct, sometimes with the help of puter technology, what these ancient buildings and objects must have looked like, and how they might have been made. Sometimes historians are lucky and find an ancient document with a written description of these ancient buildings and objects. 【點評】本題考點涉及推理判斷，詞義猜測和主旨大意三個題型的考查，是一篇故事類閱讀，要求考生根據(jù)上下文的邏輯關(guān)系，進(jìn)行分析，推理，概括和歸納，從而選出正確答案。本文通過 Helga講述自己的經(jīng)歷，使得作者決定要讓善行成為人們習(xí)以為常的事，注意關(guān)注生活中需要幫助的人，不冷漠以待。 ”可知作者是一個好的事業(yè)推廣者，選D。I39。根據(jù)第五段中的“ We spend so much time worrying about our problems, our lives, our insecurities, getting to our flight so we walk by or ignore people in need of help. ”可知，我們總是過多的關(guān)注自己，所以行善不是我們通常做事的方式，可推知選A。 （2）考查詞義猜測。s story.
