Before they start the match they put mixture of oil and petrol on their hands so they can hold the rope better . ‎ Many foreign experts say the best hand for tug-of-war belong to the sons of farmers .

Some people spend all their lives trying to forget bad experiences. Violence(暴力) and traffic accidents can leave people with terrible physical and emotional scars. Often they relive these experiences in nightmares.‎ Now American researchers think they are close to developing a pill, which will help people forget bad memories. The pill is designed to be taken immediately after a frightening experience. They hope it might reduce ,or possibly erase(抹去),the effect of painful memories.‎ In November, experts tested a drug on people in the US and France. The drug stops the body releasing chemicals that fix memories in the brain. So far the research has suggested that only the emotional effects of memories may be reduced, not that the memories are erased. ‎ The research has caused a great deal of argument. Some think it is a bad idea, While others support it. ‎ Supporters say it could lead to pills that prevent or treat soldiers' troubling ‎ memories after war. They say that there are many people who suffer from terrible memories.‎ ‎"Some memories can ruin people's lives . They come back to you when you don't want to have them in a daydream or nightmare. They usually come with very painful emotions," said Roger Pitman, a professor of psychiatry at Harvard Medical School. "This could relieve a lot of that suffering." ‎ But those who are against the research say that changing memories is very dangerous because memories give us our identity (特质). They also help us all avoid the mistakes of the past. ‎ ‎ "All of us can think of bad events in our lives that were horrible at the time but make us who we are. I'm not sure we want to wipe those memories out, "said Rebecca Dresser, a medical ethicist. ‎ ‎32. The passage is mainly about _______. . ‎ A. a new medical invention ‎ B. a new research on the pill ‎ C. a way of erasing painful memories ‎ ‎ D. an argument about the research on the pill ‎ ‎33. The drug tested on people can________. ‎ A. cause the brain to fix memories ‎ B. stop people remembering bad experiences ‎ C. prevent body producing certain chemicals ‎ D. Wipe out the emotional effects of memories ‎ ‎34. We can infer from the passage that__________. ‎ A. people doubt the effects of the pills ‎ B. the pill will stop people's bad experiences ‎ C. taking the pill will do harm to people's health ‎ D. the pill has probably been produced in America ‎ ‎35. Which of the following does Rebecca Dresser agree with? ‎ A. Some memories can ruin people's lives. ‎ B. People want to get rid of bad memories. ‎ C. Experiencing bad events makes us different from others. ‎ D. The pill will reduce people's sufferings from bad memories.‎ 第二节 (共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分) ‎ 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。‎ For over one hundred and fifty years, Americans of all social classes have worn blue jeans(牛仔裤) 36_____. Whether they are worn for work or for fashion today. Strauss' invention continues to be popular not only among Americans but also among people around the world．‎ Levi Strauss was born in Germany in 1829．__37____. He grew up in Kentucky before moving to New York in 1847．Before becoming an American citizen and moving to the West in 1853, Strauss worked in his brother's dry goods business．This gave him a chance to produce his famous invention．After the gold rush of 1849, Strauss decided to move to the West to seek his fortunes．‎ Strauss did not want to be a person who searched an area for minerals．Instead, he knew he could make a good living by selling supplies to the miners．At first, he planned to sell sewing supplies and cloth．__38_____. When he heard miners complaining that their clothes were easily broken or they usually tore their pockets during mining, he decided to use a special fabric to make pants for the miners．These pants proved so popular that he quickly ran out of materials to make more．‎ In 1873, Strauss received a letter from a Jewish tailor named Jacob Davis who had invented a process of connecting pockets with copper rivets（铆钉）．This made the pants last a long time．Because Davis did not have the money to patent his idea, he offered to share it with Strauss if Strauss would agree to pay for the patent. ___39_______‎ By the time Strauss died in 1902, he had made a great contribution to American fashion．‎ ‎______40.The business has been growing ever since and Levi Strauss' company is now one of the largest clothing companies in the world．‎ A．As a young boy, he moved with his family to the United States．‎ B．Nobody knew what kind of material was suitable．‎ C．He did and Levi jeans have been made with metal rivets ever since．‎ D．However, he did not get much business for those products．‎ E．He also made a great contribution to America's clothing industry．‎ F．Since they were invented by Levi Strauss, they have become a symbol of American consumer culture．‎ G．As the business grew, Strauss got much money from it．‎ 第三部分 英语知识运用（共两节，满分45分）‎ 第一节，完形填空（共20小题；每小题1.5分，满分30分）‎ ‎ 阅读下列短文，掌握其大意，然后从短文后各题所给的四个选项A,B,C,D中，选出可以填入空白处的正确选项，并写在试卷的相应位置。‎ A professor was traveling with a few of his students, they happened to pass a lake.
