Zhoukoudian is a small village situated about 50 kilometers to the southwest of Beijing. In the 1920s, archaeologists discovered some prehistoric human bones there which changed people’s view of China’s history. They came from an unknown species of man and were the first evidence of human life in China thousands of years ago. The remains were three teeth!
In 1929, a complete skull was also discovered. Eventually, archaeologist found almost 200 items, including six skulls and more than 150 teeth. These discoveries proved the existence of a human species who lived in the area between 700,000 and 200,000 years ago. Four sites where Beijing Man and his relatives lived were discovered on the northern face of Longgushan. They lived in the caves in the area.
However, the life span of Beijing Man was short. About 70% of the peole probably died before the age of 14. Fewer than 5% lived to the age of 50. Ashes were found alongside the fossils which showed they had used fire for cooking food and also for light, warmth, and protection against wild animals. This is the earliest evidence of the use of fire anywhere in the world. They also made tools of bones and stones. Unfortunately, when Japan invaded(侵略) China in 1937, excavations(挖掘) at the Beijing Man Site stopped and most of the fossils disappeared, including a Beijing Man skull. After the People’s Republic of China was established in 1949, the work started again.
Zhoukoudian was listed as a World Heritage Site in December 1987. It has not only given us important information about prehistoric Asian societies, but also provided amazing evidence about the process of evolution. Today, parts of the caves have been badly affected by rain. Some areas are almost completely covered in weeds, causing serious damage. Pollution from the nearby factories has also contributed to the problem. This is a very serious matter and the Chinese Academy of Sciences is trying to raise public awareness of it.

In our daily life, it is necessary to make small talk in certain situations. It helps to fill time between people when it is completely quiet. You may not feel like talking with someone else or you are very shy at the beginning, but it is sometimes thought to be rude to say nothing.
People use small talk almost every day. It usually takes place when you meet someone you don’t know at all or someone you’re not familiar with. For example, waitresses and hairdressers often make small talk with their customers. If you happen to be outside when the mailman comes to your door, you might make small talk with him, too.
Most often, small talk happens in places where people are waiting for something. For example, you might talk with another person who is waiting for the bus to arrive. People also make small talk in a doctor’s waiting room, or when they are waiting in a line to buy something. At the office, people make small talk in elevators or lunchrooms, especially if there is a line-up. Mingling(交际) is often required among people who don’t know each other very well at a party. In other words, they are expected to walk around and talk with others.
The most common time for small talk to happen is the first time you see or meet someone on a given day. For example, if you see a co-worker in the lounge (休息室) you might say hello and discuss the sports or weather. However, the next time you see each other you might just smile and say nothing. If there is very little noise, it might be the right time to start a pleasant conversation. If someone is reading a book at the bus stop, it is probably not a good idea to start a conversation. Another good time to make small talk is during a break in a meeting when there is nothing important going on. However, it is important to recognize the signal when the other person wants the conversation to stop.
1.Small talk happens most probably except when _____.
A. you’re having your hair cut
B. you’re having a meeting
C. you’re waiting for a bus
D. you’re waiting in a line to buy something
2.It is the right time to make small talk when
A. there is nothing important going on during a break in a meeting
B. the other person doesn’t want to start a conversation
C. On the same day, you see a co-worker in the lounge again
D. someone is reading a book at the bus stop
3.The author develops the last paragraph mainly by _____.
A. giving explanations B. discussing questions
C. telling stories D. providing examples
4.We can learn from the text that small talk _____.
A. won’t happen among strangers
B. can help to break the silence
C. is often thought to be unnecessary
D. always makes people uncomfortable

There is a small village named Bugu in the mountains of Shanglin County, Guangxi. The place is so small that it can’t be found in the map of the county of Shanglin. However, the place has strongly interested experts(专家) both at home and abroad.
There are altogether 81 families in the village with more than 540 people. Among them as many as 156 villagers have a university education. Take this year’s college entrance examination for example. Six out of nine students from the village who took the examination were taken into universities.

Every day, the four villagers go round the village. If they find any child who is not going to school, the child’s parents will be punished(惩罚).
