Its construction began in 1406 and was pleted 14 years later, having a history so far of more than 580 years. Twentyfour emperors from the Ming and Qing dynasties lived and ruled China from there. Most of the buildings in the Forbidden City were rebuilt many times, although they maintained the original architectural style. The Forbidden City, extending 753meters from east to west, and 961 meters from north to south makes a rectangular shape and covers a total area of 720,000 square meters. It consists of several dozen pounds of varying sizes and some 9,900 bays of rooms, with a total floor area of 150,000 square meters.

City walls are 10 meters high, and a 52meterwide moat(護城河 ) surrounds the Forbidden City. Three storied towers are placed at each corner of the wall. The buildings of the Forbidden City fully embody the artistic features and style of ancient Chinese palace architecture, and can be called a masterpiece in Chinese, even the world, architectural history. Today, as the largest museum of cultural relics in China, the Forbidden City, also called the Palace Museum, collected and displayed about one million precious historical relics from the Shang dynasty (16th century . – 11th century B.

I once read a saying: “If somebody wants something of you, you will be treated as warmly as spring, but if they don’t you may be treated as coldly as winter.” You may consider it an exaggeration(夸張 )， but if you are a salesman, it is clearly correct. You would never have found it to be so true if you hadn’t been a salesman. You needn’t stand doubtful looks and unfriendly views。 you needn’t always keep patience and smile。 you needn’t talk to somebody you dislike. I did this work for a month。注意 ：每個空格只寫 1個單詞。請根據(jù)自己的理解和經(jīng)驗，參考所給的漢語提示，以《交友之道》 (Ways of making friends)為題寫篇短文。 要求提示： １、每個人都需要朋友，如何交友極為重要。微笑是吸引別人的吸鐵石（ mag）。要關(guān)心別人勝過關(guān)心自己。這樣的話別人會認為他給你留下了印象。 ６、不要相信那些在危難時刻背離朋友的人，因為 “患難的朋友才是真正的朋友 ” Keys: II、 單項選擇：（共 15小題，每題 1分，滿分 15分） 2125 ADDCC 2630 CBABA 3135 BCDCB III、完形填空 (共 20小題，每題 ，滿分 30分 ) 3640 BADAC 4145 CBDAC 4650 BDCDA 5155 CDBDB IV、閱讀理解（共 20小題，每題 2分，滿分 40分） 5659 AADC 6063 BCAA 6467 ABDC 6871 DACC 7275 ACBB V. 任務(wù)型閱讀（共 10題，每題 1分，滿分 10分） 76. kinds/ types 77. main 78. nuclear 79. more 80.
