Pyramids along the Nile River are the most interesting buildings in the world. Thousands of years ago in Egypt, kings built the pyramids. They used to build them as their tombs. The kings thought the pyramids would help them find life after death. They also wanted the world to remember them as important people.
    The oldest pyramid we know today is the one near Sahara in Egypt. It is about 5 000 years old. The largest is the pyramid of Khufu. It is made of two million three hundred thousand huge stones, most of them higher than a person. It is about 114 meters high. To build the pyramid of Khufu, 100000 men worked for twenty years. We know there were wonderful treasures in the pyramid. Robbers went into the pyramids and took many of these treasures. Today some of the treasures are in museums though.
    How did the people of ancient days build the pyramids? How did they carry and lift the huge stones? Each stone fits so well and they didn’t have our modern machines. Scientists have studied the pyramids but no one can say for sure how they did it.
29. Which of the following is the reason of building pyramids according to the passage?
30.When did the first pyramid come into existence?
31.Which of the following statements is true about the biggest pyramid?

选项 A、To be used as rooms.
B、To help find life after death.
C、To remember the important workers.
D、To communicate with others in the sky.

答案 B

解析 判断题。本文介绍金字塔。浏览选项可知,本题考的是“某物的用途”,所以在听短文时要对尼罗河畔金字塔的用途和建造动机特别关注,并在相应的选项旁做好标记。录音一开始就告诉我们,"They used to build them as their tombs. The kings thought the pyramids would help them find life after death. They also wanted the world to remember them as important people." ,选项A中的rooms为原文tombs的近音干扰,C、D均未提及。正确答案是B。
