河南省开封市2005-2006学年度第一学期期末调研高一英语试题-人教版4-无忧考网 C Helen Foster Snow, former wife of the late （已故） Edgar Snow (the world-famous writer of Red Star Over China), died in the United States on January 11, 1997, at the age of 89. With roots deep among her own American people, she was a lifelong friend of the Chinese people and a bridge-builder between China and America. A small-town girl born and schooled in the southwestern U.S. State of Utah, Helen Foster came to China in 1931 when she was 23. Clever, attractive, eager to be a writer, she first worked as a secretary in Shanghai. There she met and married Edgar Snow, still a young and little-know journalist. Together they began to observe, study and write. In 1936, Snow made his first-ever foreign journalistic visit to China’s then tiny Communist-led areas, which resulted in his world famous work, Red Star Over China. Within a few months, Helen followed with an equally dangerous trip alone, producing Inside Red China. Both books reflected (expressed) their belief that they had seen the most important center of China’s future. Helen’s interest in industrial cooperative （合作） in China was lifelong. Her study of Chinese history, society, culture and women’s movements was also of good value. In celebrating Helen’s life, Chinese leaders sang high praise for her contribution to the friendship and understanding between Chinese and American people. For all these reasons, the new China conferred （授予） on her the title of Friendship Ambassador. 68. In this passage it mainly ___________.

The quake, measuring 6.2 on the Richter scale （里氏6.2级）, hit the area 220 km northwest of Beijing at 11:50 a.m. on January 10, 1998. Geng Qingguo, a researcher with the State Seismological Bureau （SSB国家地震局） Earthquake Date and Information Center, made a report of the recent quake in November 1993. Geng said that the area of northwestern Beijing, the joint of Shanxi and Hebei Provinces and the Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region are most easily attacked by earthquakes measuring 6 to a bit over 7 on the Richter scale.

Clouds covered a large area in the northern part of North China before the earthquake and experts say that this prevented satellites from correctly watching the temperature at the correct altitude （纬度）. SSB experts say that China may face a major earthquake from now through early next century. In the last ten years, about 305 earthquakes have occurred in China with 9 measuring over 7 on the Richter scale, 60 measuring over 6, and 236 measuring over 5.
