Tilet paper as we knw it tday is a relatively mdern inventin that’s nly been arund fr abut 150 years. It’s natural t wnder what was used befre mdern tilet paper. Tilet paper in its ancient frm dates back t China in at least the 6th century. Althugh paper itself appeared lng befre that time.
In ancient times, many kinds f materials (材料) were used instead f tilet paper. Fr example, sand was used by peple wh settled near the desert(沙漠); grass was used by peple living in the grassland. Sme ther things knwn t have been used included: fur, leaves, rcks, snw, and s n. Of curse, it wasn’t uncmmn fr peple t g t the bathrm in a small river.
They might have used a clth r their hands t clean themselves afterward. Fr many peple, that might have been preferable t the methd used by ancient Rmans: a spnge(海绵)n a stick kept in shared by everyne using public bathrms.
Luckily fr us, Jseph Gayetty created the first tilet paper in 1857.

It wasn’t until 1935 that Nrthern Tissue said they had made “splinter- free” tilet paper.
Other imprvements in tilet paper happened ver the curse f the 20th Century. Larger rlls with sfter paper became mre ppular. Tday, take a trip t yur lcal supermarket and yu will find many different kinds f tilet paper. Fr such a widely-used, necessary inventin, it isn’t given much it runs ut!
32．What might decide which material ancient peple used after using the bathrm?
A．What they did.
B．Where they lived.
C．Hw ld they were.
D．Hw lng they used the bathrm.
33．Why was Gayetty’s Medicated Paper unppular at first?

B．Because the paper culdn’t be shared.
C．Because peple didn’t want t pay fr it.
D．Because peple preferred rlled tilet paper.
34．Hw des the text mainly develp?

B．By making cmparisns.
C．By telling an interesting stry.
D．By fllwing the rder f time.
35．What wuld be the best title fr the text?

33．细节理解题。由第四段中的“His “Gayetty’s Medicated Paper” didn’t becme ppular sn,
hwever, since the public was used t using materials they gt fr free rather than spending mney n tilet paper.”（然而，他的“Gayetty纸”并没有很快流行起来，因为公众习惯于使用免费获得的材料，而不是花钱购买卫生纸）可知，由于人们不习惯花钱买厕纸，所以 Gayetly’s Medicated Paper 遭遇冷遇。故选C
34．推理判断题。由文中依次出现伪 the 6th century, In ancient times, in 1857. in the 1880s. until 1935, the 20th century和Tday可知。本文主要按照时间顺序展开。故选D
35.主旨大意题。通读全文可知，作者介绍了厕纸发明前后的情况，文中最后一段“Fr such a widely-used, necessary inventin, it isn’t given much it runs ut!（对于这样一个广泛使用的、必要的发明，它没有被给予太多的思考……直到它用完！）”指出它是一个被广泛使用的必要发明。由此可知A项：一个伟大的发明——厕纸，最能概括全文内容，故选A。
七选五 本文是说明文。文章主要介绍4条帮助孩子不害怕的建议。
根据上文“We have t knw hw t help kids nt be afraid.”(我们必须知道如何帮助孩子们不要害怕。)及下文提到的四条建议可知，这篇文章接下来是要给我们一些建议，帮助孩子们不要害怕。C项“我们可以从这四个方面着手”和上下文意思一致。故选C。
根据本段小标题“Pay attentin t their fears.”(要注意他们的恐惧。)和下文“At the same time, cme beside them in dealing with fears.”(同时，在处理恐惧时，要站在他们旁边。)可知，这里是在建议应该如何面对孩子们的恐惧。D项“认真对待孩子的恐惧”和上下文意思一致。故选D。
根据下文“it desn’t mean it’s silly t them.”(这并不意味着这对他们来说是愚蠢的。)可知，这里提到似乎会被看做是愚蠢的东西。G项“如果你的孩子分享了一些在你眼中似乎很愚蠢的东西”和下文意思一致。故选G。
根据下文“but als it will build cnfidence and a cnnectin between yu.”(但它也会在你们之间建立信心和联系。)可知，这里指和孩子们一起解决问题的好处。F项“这不仅能帮助他们勇敢地面对自己的恐惧”和下文意思一致。故选F。
根据下文“Yu need t stay patient as lng as it takes.”(你需要尽可能保持耐心。)可知，这一段主要是建议要有耐心。A项“要有耐心”和下文意思一致，适合作本段的小标题。故选A。
完形填空 本文是一篇惊险的记叙文，介绍了一个勇敢聪明的女子智斗抢劫犯的故事，表明面对抢劫犯只要善于用脑是可以减少损失的，第46空的bright、第48空的threw、第53空的hands、第54空的fast、第55空的nly充分表明了这一点。文章情节曲折，紧张惊险，第42空的quiet、第45空的die就充分体现了这一点。
41. D。until tw ’clck in the mrning暗示该空表示“持续”，因此应填lasted。
42. B。由常识可知，凌晨两点街上行人稀少，店铺也未开门，非常安静，因此该空应填quiet。
43. C。突然从一幢黑房子的后面一个右手拿着一把锋利刀子的高个子男子朝她冲了过去。
44. A。由第1空后面的tw ’clck in the mrning可以推出该空应填mrning。
45. A。由语境逻辑可知，抢劫犯手里拿着一把锋利的刀子是想以被抢者不听话就将其杀死为威胁进行抢劫，因此该空应填die。
46. D。由下文Agatha的机智行为可以推出她想出的是一个聪明的主意，因此该空应填bright。
47. C。此处指两只手中的另一只手，因此该空应填the ther。
48. B。quickly与n the grund暗示该空表示“扔”，因此应填threw。
49. B。由第6空后面的tried t cver her necklace with the cllar f her vercat可以推出该空表示“保留”，因此应填keep。
50. C。抢劫犯认为Agatha想留下项链说明其值钱更多，因此该空应填mre。
51. D。由It与much之间的逻辑关系可以推出该空表示“值”，因此应填cst。spend和charge的主语都是人。
52. C。根据文意是：我可没那么傻。
53. A。Agatha假装用颤抖的双手摘下了项链。
54. D。抢劫犯一离开，她拾起耳环，尽可能快地跑向一个朋友。
55. C。此处强调项链值钱少，因此应填nly。

I als enjy walking n the snw. Sme peple are a bit scared but I lve it. Naturally yu need t wear the right shes.
Let’s hpe that the snw will bring us gd luck!
Yurs,
