Crime (罪行) has its own cycles, a magazine reported some years ago. Police records that were studied for five years from over 2 400 cities and towns show a surprising link between changes in the season and crime patterns.
The pattern (模式) of crime has varied very little over a long period of years. Murder reaches its high point during July and August, as do rape (强奸案) and other violent (猛烈的) attacks. Murder, besides, is more than seasonal: it is a weekend crime. It is also a nighttime crime: 62 percent of murders are committed between 6 p. m. and 6 a. m.
Unlike the summer high in crimes of bodily harm, burglary (抢劫) has a different cycle. You are most likely to be robbed between 6 p. m. and 2 a. m. on a Saturday night in December, January, or February. The most uncriminal month of all is May except for one strange statistic. More dog bites are reported in this month than in any other month of the year.
Obviously our intellectual (智力的) seasonal cycles are completely different from out criminal tendencies (倾向). Professor Huntington, of the Foundation for the Study of Cycles, made careful studies to discover the seasons when people read serious books, attend scientific meetings, make the highest scores in examinations, and propose the most changes to patents (专利). In all instances, he found a spring peak (高峰) and an autumn peak separated by a summer low. On the other hand, Professor Huntington's studies show that June is the peak month for suicides (自杀) and admissions to mental hospitals. June is also a peak month for marriages!
Possibly, high temperatures and high humidity (湿度) bring on our strange and terrifying summer actions, but police officials are not sure. “There is of course, no proof of a connection between humidity and murder,” they say. “Why murder's high time should come in the summertime we really don't know.”
(1) The main idea of paragraph 1 is ________.
[ ]
A.there is a link between changes in the seasons and crime patterns.
B.crime is not linked to the changes in season.
C.2400 towns were studied for five years.
D. the crime patterns have no connections with summer.
(2) The subject of paragraph 2 is ________.
[ ]

[ ]
A.There are more robberies in May.
B.There are more dog bites in May.
C.There is the most crime in May.
D.There are most marriages in May.
(4) In paragraph 4, a graph for our intellectual cycles might look like this:
W = winter Sp = spring Su = summer A = autumn (见P93上图)
(5) The information in paragraph 5 says: ________.
[ ]
A.There may be a connection between murder and hot weather.
B.There is surely a connection between murder and hot weather.
C.There is no connection between murder and hot weather.
D.There must be a connection between cold weather and murder.

阅读下列短文,从所给的四个选项中,选处最佳答案.
Marco Polo was a Venetian traveller, whose accounts of his journey across the world from Venice to China and back, make one of the greatest books of all his time.
Marco Polo was born either at Venice, or perhaps at Korcula, a place on an island off Dalmatian coast in 1254. His father, Niccolo Polo, and his father's brother, Matteo set out in 1261, on a long trading journey which led them to the court of Kublai, the Great Khan, who ruled over China. After seven years they returned to Italy.
Two years passed before the brothers decided to start again on their travels, and this time, they took with them Niccolo'c son Marco, then 17 years old. They trvelled to Acre and from there rode overland to Hormuz on the Persian Gulf. From there they turned northward and made their way through Persia to Balkh, and Khotan. From there they passed near Lop Nor, crossed the Gobi Desert and entered China by way of Su—chou. At length, in 1275, after a journey lasting three years, they introduced themselves to Kublai Khan at his summer palace at Shangtu.
Marco records that he made rapid progress in the Great Khan's favour. He studied the Mongol language and the emperor asked him to look after the travelling groups made up of foreign visitors from different parts of the world and show them around his kingdom. He became skilful(娴熟)and clever at business. Marco made careful notes of his journey, the state of the cities, the customs (风俗)of the people, and the kinds of crops and other products. After 17 years travelling in the service of the Khan, Marco, together with his father and uncle, returned to Venice. The journey took them 3 years and they arrived in 1295.
