托福阅读经典加试题：苏美尔文明(版本二)

下面是新东方在线托福小编为大家整理的托福阅读经典加试题苏美尔文明的内容，供大家参考!

　　版本二

　　1

　　It is an astonishing fact that human civilization should have emerged

　　into the light of history in two separate places at just about

　　the same time. Between 3,500 and 3,000 B.C. when Egypt was being

　　united under pharaonic rule, another great civilization arose in

　　Mesopotamia, the “landbetween the rivers.” And for close to

　　three thousand years, the two rival centers retained their

　　distinct characters, even though they had contact with each

　　other from their earliest beginnings, and their destinies were

　　interwoven in many ways. The pressure that forced the

　　inhabitants of both regions to abandon the pattern of Neolithic

　　village life may well have been the same. But the valley of the

　　Tigris and Euphrates rivers, unlike that of the Nile, is not

　　a narrow fertile strip protected by desert on either side. It

　　resembles a wide, shallow trough with few natural defenses,

　　crisscrossed by two great rivers and their tributaries, and is easily

　　encroached upon from any direction.

　　1. The word astonishing in the passage is closest in meaning to

　　(A) important

　　(B) unknown

　　(C) amazing

　　(D) interesting

　　2. Which of the sentences below best expresses the essential

　　information in the highlighted sentence in the passage?

　　Incorrect choices change the meaning in important ways or leave out

　　essential information.

　　(A) A great civilization arose in Mesopotamia, the “land

　　between the rivers” under pharaonic rule.

　　(B) Egypt and another great civilization both developed in

　　Mesopotamia between 3500 and 3000 B.C.

　　(C) A great civilization arose in Mesopotamia between 3500

　　and 3000 B.C. at the same time that ancient Egypt was being

　　united.

　　(D) As Egypt was being united under pharaonic rule, a great

　　civilization arose there.
