Some people say that if you have never walked through a Chinese garden, you cannot say that you have really visited China.Traditional Chinese gardens are located(位于)in North China in such places as Beihai Park, the Summer Palace, the Forbidden City. In larger imperial gardens, the main buildings are connected by an imaginary（虛構(gòu)的） line in the middle of the garden on the north-south axis(軸). Other features (特征)of imperial gardens are colored-paintings, man-made hills and lakes.Most private gardens are found in the south, especially in cities south of the Yangtze River. Private gardens were mostly built at one side or at the back of the houses. Around the beautiful scene are small open areas with beautiful shaped-doors through which visitors can enjoy the sights. They are open on all sides and are often near the water so that the whole scene can be enjoyed. Suzhou, known as the home of gardens, displays the most and the best Chinese traditional private gardens. Different parts of it are examples of the garden style of the Song, Yuan, Ming and Qing Dynasties.The landscape garden contains a number of pleasant natural scenes and some fairy tales.

We can only make a guess, of course, but we can be sure that he will be different from what he is today. For man is slowly changing all the time.Let us take an example. Man, even five hundred years ago, was shorter than he is today. Now, on the average, men are about three inches taller. Five hundred years is a relatively (相對地) short period of time, so we may suppose that man will continue to grow taller.Again, in the modern world we use our brains a great deal. Even so, we still make use of only about 20% of the brains capacity (容量.) As time goes on, however, we shall have to use our brains more and more and finally we shall need larger ones! This is likely to bring about a physical change too. The head, especially the forehead, will grow larger.Nowadays our eyes are being used too much. In fact, we use them so much that very often they become weaker and we have to wear glasses. But over a very long period of time it is likely that mans eyes will grow stronger.On the other hand, we tend (有的趨勢) to make less use of our arms and legs. These, as a result, are likely to grow weaker. At the same time, however, our fingers will grow more sensitive (敏感的) because they are used a great deal in modern life.What about hair? This will probably disappear from the body altogether in course of time because it does not serve a useful purpose any longer. In the future, then, both men and women are probably to be hairless!Perhaps, all this gives the impression that future man will not be a very attractive (有吸引力的) person to look at! This may well be true. All the same, besides these changes, future man will still have a lot in common with us. He will still be a human being, with thoughts and feelings similar to our own.（1）Future man is probably to be different from us in _ ways. A . twoB . threeC . fourD . five（2）Future mans head will grow larger because _. A . he will use his brain more and more as time goes onB . he makes use only 80% of the brains capacityC . the other 80% of his brain will grow fasterD . his brain has grown larger over the past centuries（3）What will be probably TRUE about the man in the future? A . He will have smaller eyes and will wear better glasses.B . His fingers will grow weaker because he wont use them.C . He will be hairless because hair is no longer useful.D . He will think and feel in a different way.（4）What does the writer write the article for? A . To give us some knowledge of future man.B . To show that mans life will be different in the future.C . To let us know future man will become shorter.D . To tell us future man will not use legs.17. （10分）根據(jù)短文理解，選擇正確答案。In Britain youre allowed to drive a car when youre seventeen. You have to get a special two-year driving license before you start. When youre learning, someone with a full license always has to be in the car with you. You dont have to go to a driving school-a friend can teach you. The person with you isnt allowed to take money for the lessons unless hes got a teachers license.Before youre allowed to have a full license, you have to take a driving test.
