about 200,000 figures and symbols carved into the rocks over a time period of approximately 8,000 years.Valcamonica's pictures show various scenes and are connected through common themes like magic, war, navigation and agriculture.‎ The rock drawings discovered in Valcamonica were the first prehistoric symbols of their kind recognized anywhere in the world.UNESCO first recognized the drawings in 1979 when about 140,000 were discovered, however, since then many more have been uncovered.‎ These drawings are spread all across the valley.The carvings began to taper_off during the Iron Age and fewer appeared after that.The last period has been attributed to (归功于……) the Camunni people.Still ‎ there are drawings that have been identified as being from the 19th century.Many of these were created using the technique of engraving (雕刻)．‎ Some of the figures discovered in Valcamonica have been superimposed (叠印) without any order, but in most cases they appear in logical orders and also explain the relationship between each picture or symbol to tell a story.‎ The first known modern report of the rock carvings was in 1909 when Walther Laeng happened upon two decorated rocks in Capo di Ponte.Scholars only took interest in the drawings in the 1920s.More rocks with engravings were soon found in the areas nearby and research into their history began.In the 1930s comprehensive study campaigns were undertaken.‎ It was after the Second World War that the cataloging and mapping of the engravings began.This task was taken up by various teams of experts from Italy and other countries that were led by Laeng.In 1955 preservation work on the rocks began.‎ In 1968, a large series of conferences were held where scholars from all over the world met to discuss the rock drawings, which give us some idea of what various societies of the past might have been like.‎ ‎4．What do we know about Valcamonica's pictures?‎ A．They tell a long whole story.‎ B．They are interrelated in some ways.‎ C．They were carved 8,000 years ago.‎ D．They were first discovered in 1979.‎ 解析：选B　细节理解题。由第一段中的“Valcamonica's pictures show various scenes and are connected through common themes like ‎ magic, war, navigation and agriculture.”可知，梵尔卡莫尼卡谷地的岩画展示了不同的场景，并且通过共同的主题连接在一起。‎ ‎5．The underlined part “taper off” in Paragraph 3 can best be replaced by “________”．‎ A．turn up B．go up C．die out D．stand out 解析：选C　词义猜测题。由画线部分下文中的“fewer appeared after that”可知，这些雕刻在铁器时代逐渐减少，故由此推断，taper off意为“逐渐减少”。‎ ‎6．What is Paragraph 5 mainly about?‎ A．The history of the rock drawings.‎ B．The features of the rock drawings.‎ C．The discovery of the rock drawings.‎ D．The formation of the rock drawings.‎ 解析：选C　段落大意题。由第五段中的“The first known modern report of the rock carvings was in 1909”和“More rocks with engravings were soon found in the areas nearby”可知，本段主要讲述了岩画的发现。‎ ‎7．Studies of the rock drawings ________.‎ A．show us the development of art B．started after the Second World War C．were conducted by scholars from UNESCO D．help us know something about societies of the past 解析：选D　细节理解题。由最后一段中的“give us some idea of what various societies of the past might have been like”可知，对梵尔卡莫尼卡谷地岩画的研究能让我们对过去的人类社会有所了解。‎ Ⅱ.阅读七选五 ‎(2018·四川成都市高三二诊)Color is in everything we touch, taste, smell and feel. It evokes (唤起) emotion without any thought. __1__ We are all familiar with it, but do you know the following facts?‎ Silver will save your life. When buying a new car and finding yourself facing various choices, you can't think clearly. Your best choice is to go with silver. Silvercolored cars are least likely to be involved in a car accident. __2__ Another reason is the silver color's ability to have a look of cleanliness.‎ ‎__3__ Tough prisoners and crazy patients? It is the color commonly used to help calm down those who are out of control. So it surely has a useful place and a purpose, other than decorating a dress or Barbie's dream house.‎ Yellow makes you hungry. Yellow and orange are not recommended for use in kitchens, as they have a positive influence on your appetite. __4__ I'm not normally one for conspiracy (阴谋) theories — but perhaps there's something in it for them if we remain ignorant of yellow's effects.‎ Color is an imaginary friend. Technically, it's all in our heads: color does not exist at all. __5__ So, if you start a heated debate over color combinations with someone that you are certain has a low IQ or is just colorblind, remember it's a pointless argument and you should drop it instantly. You're both wrong.‎ A．Pink comforts the nerves.‎ B．Blue is the most common favorite color.‎ C．They are most noticeable on the road and in low light.‎ D．Yellowcolored walls seldom leave us wanting more food.‎ E．It can be the focus of our careers, our lifestyle and the fun we have.‎ F．Then where would our restaurant owners be without the clever tricks?‎ G．Color tries to make sense of the huge amount of information from the outer world.‎ ‎1．选E　根据上文的“Color is in everything we touch, taste, smell and feel. It evokes (唤起) emotion without any thought.”可知，色彩与人们的生活密切相关，可以唤起人们的情感。E项“色彩是人们职业、生活方式和娱乐的焦点”与此呼应，故选E项。‎ ‎2．选C　根据上文的“Silvercolored cars are least likely to be involved in a car accident.”及下文的“Another reason is the silver color's ability to have a look of cleanliness.”可知，银色引人注目，不易引起交通事故，故选C项。‎ ‎3．选A　根据下文的“It is the color commonly used to help calm down those who are out of control.”可推知，本段所介绍的颜色有定心安神的作用，故选A项。‎ ‎4．选F　根据下文的“I'm not normally one for conspiracy (阴谋) theories — but perhaps there's something in it for them if we remain ignorant of yellow's effects.”可推知应选F项，餐馆老板利用色彩的作用招揽更多的顾客。‎ ‎5．选G　根据上文的“Color is an imaginary friends.
