1.Most of the guests who come on our trips have never been to Egypt before.We want to makeeveryone comfortable and at ease, but we do always get the same question in advance of a trip.So here I will give you some travel tips.What should I wear?If you are lucky enough to visit Egypt between November and February, pack a sweater.You’ll need it --the desert gets chilly at night..During the day, the temperature will be agreeable andcomfortable.Any other time, pack as if you are going to phoenix or Vegas in August.For the ladies bathing suits are normal if there’s a pool where you’re going, but leave the string bikini at home --it is a Muslim country, after all.Last, if you’re planning on visiting any mosques or certain parts of upper Egypt, ladies will need to plan on bringing something that comes at least to the elbows, and no shorts for men or women in those areas.What special things do I need to pack?One of my favorite things in the world to bring to Egypt is an Evian Mister, a sprayer with a finemist of Evian water.You may be able to find it in your local drug store.Spray a little on yourface or head, and your body temperature will feel like it’s dropped 10 to 15 degrees.Other items include your camera, sun block and extra batteries.How do I communicate with home?Internet cafes are plentiful everywhere, especially in Cairo, Luxor, and Alexandria.If you have international calling on your phone, you should be able to use it----AT&T and sprint both work internationally for sure, but may sure you have the international coverage.A satellite phone is best if you are certain to need coverage in the middle of the country, like while sailing up the Nile, but for most people these days a cell phone is fine.What medical preparation do I need?In a word: none! The one thing you may come down with in Egypt is politely called “Pharoah’s Revenge” The thing that knocks out Pharoah’s Revenge is a regionally produced medicine ,and is available at every drugstore for $ 1 a box.DON’T drink local water, DO drink bottled water, avoid the skins of fresh vegetables, and you will be fine.What clothing is proper for ladies visiting a mosque?

2.根据以下资料，回答66-69题。We first think of the traditional or nuclear family．This is a two-generation family, the father and the mother and their own children．Most couples wanted to have four children, two boys, two girls. 　　Some nuclear families, however, may add one or more grandparents to come to live with them, that is three generations．This kind of family with grandparents, parents, and grandchildren is called an extended family．This family type was not very common during the later half of the twentieth century, but it's becoming more common now as an elderly grandparent moves in to live with a son or daughter．This is more possible now that American homes have become larger．What is interesting, however, is that after the grandchildren move out of the home and start their own families, this extended family shrinks back to a nuclear family, with just two generations again living together, a grandparent and parents, with the grandchildren coming only for occasional visits． 　　Now, the fatherless or motherless family is one kind of what we call a single-parent family．In the fatherless family it's just the mother and her children．As I said, this can be the result of the husband's death, of an unmarried mother, of a separation or divorce．There are also a growing number of motherless families--where the father raises the children, for any of the same reasons．A motherless family may also be fatherless, but still a family with one adult．This is becoming more common in the big cities where a grandmother will raise her daughter's children while the daughter goes elsewhere to work. 　　One other new kind of family is becoming increasingly more common．A single parent with one or more children will marry again．Perhaps the other parent is also a single parent．Together they will start what is called a blended family, which blends together or combines the children from two other families.69 Which of the following is the best title of this passage?

3.A hundred years ago, the game we now call football did not exist．American football started during a game between two colleges．The teams had got together to play what they called "football", but each team played by different rules．One team played what we now call soccer．The other played what we now call rugby (橄榄球) . 　　Both games had been invented a thousand years before．In the first kind of football game ever played, all the men from one village tried to kick a ball into another village．The men of the second village tried to kick the ball into the first．Hundreds of people joined in, running everywhere, running crops and knocking down fences．In time, people agreed on some rules to keep order, but many rules were left open to change．Different rules developed in different places. 　　When the two colleges met to play football, each followed its own rules．They mixed the games together and invented a new game．A hundred years 1.ater we call that game American football. 　　In what ways do you suppose the game we know now will have changed in another hundred years?[单选题] "Both games" at the beginning of the second paragraph refers to __.

8.We lost two superstars in 1977.Neither man’s admirers have been able to understand thesuccees of the other one.And this tells us something of the difference between the generationsthat the two singers represent.There were similarities between Bing Crosby and Elvis Presley.Both reached fame whileyoung and because very rich.Although neither one had any musical education，both developedtheir own musical styles。which were at first criticized by the Critics and later studied as newforms in the art of popular son9.Both man had successful movie careers despite a total lack ofacting ability.Both were creations of the microphone.which made it possible for signers with weakvoices to be heard beyond the third row.With Bing the microphone was usually hidden，butElvis brought it to the stage.The difference between the men reflects the changing values in American ife.Crosby’smusic was soothing( 令 人 舒 畅 的);Presley's was disturbin9.Crosby was singing to wartimeAmerica.His audiences had all the disturbances they could handle in their private lives.theydid not want to buy more at the record shop and the movie theater.Crosby’s admirers always said how“relaxed”and“natural”he was.When Presley beganhis career，the whole country had become relaxed and easygoin9.Its young people，who hadno rftemory of troubled times.found it borin9.They were hungry for excitement.Theywelcomed Elvis，who wascertainly not the kind of young man their parents would admire.Presley was loud and valgar(粗俗的)-and he was bringing something new and exciting.It is probably too simple to explain each man in terms of changes in the economic and politicalsituation.Something in the culture was also changing.In which aspeet the singers are similar to each other?
