C．The Mississippi is the greatest river in the United States. D．The Mississippi has always had an important part in American history． E．Great rivers are likely to suffer floods. F．As we know．it's the third longest river in the world．

 
The Mississippi
The Mississippi is a romantic river whose relationship with man goes back beyond its discovery by the Spaniards in the 16th century．Indians used the river as a highway and as a source of food．and it was they who gave it its name“misi-sipi”，meaning“river of many fishes”．European explorers called it the Mississippi．Today, it is often called“Old Man River”．
  45  ．Flowing from north to south，it gathers many waters on its way．You will easily understand why it is called“Old Man River”，or the“Father of Waters”．A lot of early setters built their homes on the land along its waters．The Mississippi was and is the old man of all American people，too
  46  ．In 1927 the Mississippi flooded 26 thousand acres，sweeping away farms，towns，everything in its path．In 1938 its floods drowned or killed 200 people and made millions homeless．Today the river has largely been controlled．
  47  ．Pioneers who first reached its banks wondered not only where it went，but what lay beyond．In 1764 the French founded a city on the right bank of the river, and named it after their king，Louis XV．This city, named St Louis，became the jumping-off place for the adventurous men and women who opened up the Great Plains，and the way to the Far West．
  48  ．One of the saddest memories may be that of the blacks who were carried down the river and sold as slaves．The river also remembers that their sobbing and crying voices once passed over its waters．
  49  ．Today, the river is still an important part of the American economy．Goods are carried up and down the river to get to other parts of the country and the world．

根据短文内容，从下框的A – F选项中选出能概括每一段主题的最佳选项。选项中有一项为多余项。

	A．Limit the number of new names you learn at one time. B．Arriving early helps to remember more names. C．Use imagination to know other’s names． D．Acknowledge（承认）you don’t know other’s names. E．Read one’s name to yourself over again. F．Remember the names with someone’s help．

 

 
Remembering names is an important social skill．Here are some ways to master it.
When you hear a person’s name and want to remember it, repeat it．Immediately say it to yourself several times without moving your lips．You could also say the name again in a way that does not sound forced or artificial.
You can let other people help you remember their names．After you’ve been introduced to someone, ask that person to spell the name and pronounce it correctly for you．Most people will be pleased by the effort you’re making to learn their names.
Admitting that you can’t remember someone’s name can actually make people relaxed．Most of them will feel sympathy if you say “I’m working to remember names better．Yours is right on the tip of my tongue．What is it a gain ?”
    When meeting a group of people, concentrate on remembering just two or three names．Free yourself from remembering every one．Few of the people in mass introductions expect you to remember their names．Another way is to limit yourself to learning just firs t names．Last names can come later.
    Consider going early to conferences, parties and classes．Sometimes just a few people show up on time．There are fewer names for you to remember．And as more people arrive, you can hear them being introduced to others — an automatic review for you.

The advantages and disadvantages of a large population have long been a subject of discussion. It 31 (argue) that the supply of good land is limited. To feed a large population, inferior land must be cultivated and the good land worked 32(intensive). Thus, each person produces less and this means a lower average income than could be obtained with  33  smaller population.
One of the  34(difficult) in carrying out a world-wide birth control program is that official attitudes to population growth vary from country to country. In a developing country  35  a vastly expanded population is pressing hard upon the limits of food, space and natural resources, 36 will be the first concern of government to place a limit  37  the birthrate, whatever the consequences may be. A decreasing birthrate may lead to unemployment because it results in a 37(decline) market. When the pressure of population on housing declines, prices also decline and the building industry is weakened.  39(face)  with such considerations, the government of a developed country may well prefer to see a slowly increasing population,rather than one which is stable  40 in decline.

Many teachers believe that the responsibilities for learning lie with the student.  31     a long reading assignment is given, instructors expect students to be familiar  32     information in the reading even if they do not discuss it in class or take an examination. The ideal student is considered to be   33   who is motivated to learn for the sake of learning, not the one interested only in getting high grades. Sometimes homework is returned with brief   34    (write) comments but without a grade.Even if a grade is not given, the student is responsible for learning the material assigned. When research   35   (assign), the professor expects the student to take it actively and to complete it with minimum   36    (guide). It is the student's responsibility to find books, magazines, and articles in the library. Professors do not have the time to explain   37    a university library works; they expect students,particularly graduate students, to be able to exhaust the reference origins in the library.Professors will help students who need it, but prefer that their students should not be too dependent on them. In the United States, professors have many other duties   38 teaching, such as administrative or research work. Therefore, the time   39    a professor can spend with a student outside of class is limited. If  40    student has problems with classroom work, the student should either approach a professor during either office hours or make an appointment.

This tube was    31   (connect) to a pump, which he carried in a small backpack on his back.    32   times, he also needed extra oxygen to support his breathing.
Tyler was    33   (will) to give up one single moment of his childhood in spite of this deadly disease. Those    34   knew him wondered at his pure joy in being    35  （live）and the energy it gave him. Tyler’s mother often made jokes on him by telling him that he moved so fast that she needed to dress him in red. That was, when she looked through the window to check on him playing in the yard, she could quickly find him.
In the end, he grew quite ill and    36   (fortune), so did his HIV-infected mother. When    37   became clear that he wasn’t going to survive, Tyler’s mother talked to him about death.

A few days before his death, Tyler singed me to his hospital bed and whispered, “I might die soon. I’m not   40   (scare). When I die, please dress me in red. Mom promised she was coming to heaven, too. I’ll be playing when she gets there, and I want to make sure that she can find me.”
