1．A.fond B．proud C．aware D．ashamed

Ⅲ.阅读理解
体裁：谈论文 话题：历史探究 时间：6分钟
If you and your friends wish to share a secret，you can write it in code，and no one else will be able to read it.Codes are one way of writing in secret.Ciphers(暗码)are another.In a code each word is written as a secret code word or a code number.In a cipher each letter is changed.
Codes and ciphers have played an important role in the history of the world.Julius Caesar，the Roman ruler who defeated almost all the countries in Europe about 2，000 years ago，used a cipher when he sent secret messages to his troops.During the American Revolution，George Washington's spies used a kind of code to send his information about the enemy before his military action.In World War Ⅱ，the Americans“broke” or figured out Japan's most important navy codes and got enough information to destroy a powerful Japanese fleet.
Storekeepers use codes to mark their goods.The codes show how much is paid for the goods or when they are added to the stock.Businessmen use codes to hide plans from their business enemies.Sometimes personal letters or diaries are written in code.Many people enjoy figuring out codes and ciphers simply as a hobby.
In the 16th century，codes and ciphers were very popular among scientists.They wrote messages to each other in code so that no one else would learn their secrets.Geronimo Gardano，an Italian astrologer(占星家)，mathematician，and doctor，invented the trellis cipher.He took two sheets of paper and cut exactly the same holes in each one.Then he sent one sheet，which he called a trellis，to a friend and kept the other for himself.Whenever he wanted to write a message，he put his trellis over a clean sheet of paper and wrote the secret message through the holes.Then he removed the trellis and filled the rest of the paper with words that would make sense.When his friend received it，he put his trellis over the writing and read the secret message.
【语篇导读】 密码和暗码有效地爱护着隐秘；由古至今，无论是在战火纷飞的前线，还是在没有硝烟的商场，它们都功不行没。有人甚至把它当作个人爱好，其乐无穷。
1．The best title of this passage would be ______．
A．Codes and ciphers
B．Differences between codes and ciphers
C．History of codes and ciphers
D．Inventors of codes and ciphers
解析 主旨大意题。文章第一段点明白本文的中心话题，密码和暗码是有效爱护隐秘的两种方式，故选A。

B．You could read some words in Geronimo's letter without his trellis.
C．The first person who ever used a cipher in history was Julius Caesar.

解析 推理推断题。依据最终一段倒数其次句Then he removed the trellis and filled the rest of the paper with words that would make sense.(Geronimo拿掉框架，然后在纸张的空白部分填满讲得通的内容。)可推知没有框架也可以读他的信件。
答案 B
3．According to Geronimo Gardano，a trellis is ______．
A．a piece of paper with many small holes
B．a secret message with a lot of small holes
C．a letter with unreadable words and sentences

答案 A
4．It is NOT mentioned in the passage that codes and ciphers are used for the purpose of ______．
A．military affairs B．commercial secrets
C．scientific achievements D．personal enjoyment
解析 细节理解题。其次段提到密码和暗码的军事作用，第三段提到了其在爱护商业隐秘和作为个人爱好方面的作用，文章中没有提到其在科学成就方面的作用。
