　　Ⅰ.阅读理解(共两节)

　　第一节　阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C、D)中，选出最佳选项。

　　Petra may be the treasure of an ancient world，hidden behind a tall mountain.Its beautiful scenery makes it one of the greatest ancient sites still standing today.Common sense says “perhaps there’s nothing on the planet that looks like it”．Without a doubt，there’s nothing on the world that resembles it.The rock-carved rose-red town of Petra is filled with a mysterious charm that had been “designed to strike wonder into all who entered it”．

　　Petra is the legacy from the Nabataeans，a hard-working group of Arab people who settled in southern Jordan more than 2,000 years ago.Admired then because of their culture，architecture and complex dams and water channels，Petra has become a UNESCO (United Nations Educational，Scientific and Cultural Organization) world heritage (遗产) site and listed in the New Seven Wonders of the World.

　　Petra is the most well-known site in Jordan located about 262 km south of Amman and 133 km north of Aqaba.The Dead Sea is 80 kilometers north of it.The steeply rising sides of a long，cool，dark and narrow gorge (峡谷) basically keep the sunlight out.Suddenly the gorge opens right into a natural square covered with Petra’s most well-known monuments，which glows in the bright sun.The ancient city shows the visitors its beautiful look.The town is large and the quality of the architecture is surprising.It leads someone to think about the creativity from the Nabataeans who made Petra their capital.

　　Petra was the top architectural site for more than 400 years until it was occupied by the Romans in 106 AD.It was seen first when discovered in 1812 after being lost through the 16th century for nearly 300 years! Petra has 800 monuments，including buildings，tombs，baths，halls，temples，and streets，which were mostly carved in the pretty sandstone.Petra sights are in their finest in the early morning and the late afternoon.Once the sun warms the colorful stones，you will see the majesty of Petra.

　　Life free to soar (翱翔)

　　One windy spring day，I observed young people having fun flying their kites.The colourful creations of varied shapes and sizes filled the sky like beautiful birds dancing.1.

　　Instead of blowing off，they rose against it to achieve great heights.They shook and pulled，but the strings (线) and the tails kept them in tow，facing upward and against the wind.As the kites struggled and trembled against the wind，they seemed to say，“Let me go! Let me go! I want to be free！” They soared beautifully as they fought the restrictions (限制) of the strings.

　　2．

　　“Free at last，” it seemed to say.“Free to fly with the wind.” Yet freedom from restrictions simply put it at the mercy of the wind.3.

　　It lay powerless in the dirt，blew helplessly along the ground，and stayed lifeless against the first obstruction (障碍物)．

　　4．

　　The heaven gives us misfortunes，restrictions，and rules to follow，from which we can grow and gain strength.Restrictions are a necessary counterpart (相对应之物) to the winds of opposition.5.

　　Let us each rise to great heights，recognising that some restrictions that we may face are actually the steady force that helps us succeed and achieve.

　　A．Finally，one of the kites succeeded in breaking loose.

　　B．As the strong wind blew against the kites，a string kept them in check.

　　C．We should soar in the sky freely.

　　D．Some people are against the rules so hard that they never achieve their goals.
