对于希腊的古文化约定俗成地可以划分为三个时期。下列的表述准确的是

A.①是贵族集体当政的城邦政体确立时期

B.②是柏拉图、亚里士多德思想成熟时期

C.②雅典民主走向辉煌、希腊文明走向成熟

D.③希腊文明辉煌时期、民主制度传播时期

答案

答案:C

题目分析:对于希腊的古文化约定俗成地可以划分成三个时期:第一个时期是公元前1000年到公元前700年,这段时期希腊开始有了自己的文明、这之前的历史大体上是以传说为主,还有就是之前说的大迁徙时代,与在两河流域的希伯来文明的联系等。这一段时期形成了两个最大的城邦,一个是雅典,一个是斯巴达。第二时期是公元前700年到公元前400年,这段时期是希腊文明的辉煌时期,希腊文明走向成熟,政治家如伯里克利,哲学家如柏拉图。第三个时期从公元前400年到公元纪元,也就是到罗马占领希腊,把希腊变为罗马的一个行省。因此选C.

点评:古希腊多山多岛的地理环境、“航海民族”之誉的特性以及小国寡民的城邦制度,赋予了希腊文明独特的魅力,经过梭伦改革、克利斯提尼改革到伯利克里统治时期的“黄金时代”,雅典民主政治臻于鼎盛。

Directions: Read the following passage. Answer the questions according to the information given in the passage and the required words limit. Write your answers on your answer sheet.

Even bird brains can get to know an entire continent ----- but it takes them a year of migration to do so, suggests a Princeton research team.

The scientists have shown that migrating adult sparrows can find their way to their winter nesting grounds even after being thrown off course by thousands of miles.

The team first brought 30 sparrows to Princeton from northern Washington State, where the birds had been in the process of migrating southward from their summer breeding grounds in Alaska. Half the birds were juveniles(少年) of about three months in age that had never migrated before, while the other half were adults that had made the round trip to their wintering site in the south-western United States at least once.

After the birds were released, they attempted to start their migration again but both age group grew disoriented(迷失方向) quickly.

“All the birds scattered(分散) at first,” Wikelski said. “It was clear that they were turned around for a couple of days. But while the adults eventually realized they had to head southwest, the younger birds began flying straight southward again as though they were still in Washington.”

“The adults,” said team member Richard Holland, “recovered their bearings because they possess something the younger birds do not, which is an internal map.”

“These birds need two things to know where they are and migrate effectively: a ‘map’ and a ‘compass’,” said Holland, a postdoctoral research associate in Wikelski’s lab. “What we’ve found is that juveniles use their compass, but the adults also use their map.”

Holland said, “The birds do not lose the compass as they age, but somehow develop the map, eventually applying both tools to keep on track during migratory flights. Scientists already have determined that the compass is based on the sun or the magnetic field, but where the map comes from remains a mystery----one that the team will be exploring in the coming years.”
