You either have it, or you don’t—a sense of direction, that is. But why is it that some people .

You either have it, or you don’t—a sense of direction, that is. But why is it that some people could find their way across the Sahara without a map, while others can lose themselves in the next street? Scientists say we’re all born with a sense of direction, but it is not properly understood how it works. One theory is that people with a good sense of direction have simply worked harder at developing it. Research being carried out at Liverpool University supports this idea and suggests that if we don’t use is, we lose it. “Children as young as seven have the ability to find their way around,” says Jim Martland, Research Director of the project. “However, if they are not allowed out alone or are taken everywhere by car, they never develop the skills.”Jim Martland also emphasizes that young people should be taught certain skills to improve their sense of direction. He makes the following suggestions: ●If you are using a map, turn it so it relates to the way you are facing. ●If you leave your bike in a strange place, put it near something like a big stone or a tree. Note landmarks on the route as you go away from your bike. When you return, go back along the same route. ●Simplify the way of finding your direction by using lines such as streets in a town, streams, or walls in the countryside to guide you. Count your steps so that you know how far you have gone and note any landmarks such as tower blocks or hills which can help to find out where you are. Now you need never get lost again!65. Scientists believe that_______. A. some babies are born with a sense of direction. B. people learn a sense of direction as they grow older C. people never lose their sense of direction D. everybody possesses a sense of direction from birth66. What is true of seven-year-old children according to the passage? A. They never have a sense of direction without maps B. They should never be allowed out alone if they lack a sense of direction C. They have a sense of direction and can find their way around D. They can develop a good sense of direction if they are driven around in a car.67. If you leave your bike in a strange place, you should ________. A. tie it to a tree so as to prevent it from being stolen B. draw a map of the route to help remember where it is C. avoid taking the same route when you come back to it D. remember something easily recognizable on the route68. According to the passage, the best way to find your way around is to ________. A. ask policemen for directions.

65.解析：这是一道细节推断题。根据第二段“Scientists say we’re all born with a sense of direction，but it is not properly understand how it works.”可判断出科学家认为每个人出生时就有方向感。
66.解析：这是一道判断正误题。根据第三段Children as young as seven have the ability to find their way around”可判断出选项C是正确的。
67.解析：这是一道推断题。从“If you leave your bike in a strange place，put it near something like a big stone or a tree.”和“When you return，go back along the same route.”可推断出如果把自行车放在陌生的地方，应该记住能够找到路线的物品。
68.解析：这是一道细节推断题。根据“Simplify the way of finding your direction by using lines such as streets in a town，stream，or walls n the countryside to guide you.”可判断出通过使用墙壁、溪水和街道来作为引导是识别方向的更好办法。

译：four score and seven years ago...

four score and seven years ago,our fathers brought foth on this continent a new nation
Four score and seven years ago our fathers brought forth on this continent, a new nation, conceived in Liberty, and dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal.

Now we are engaged in a great civil war, testing whether that nation, or any nation so conceived and so dedicated, can long endure. We are met on a great battle-field of that war. We have come to dedicate a portion of that field, as a final resting place for those who here gave their lives that that nation might live. It is altogether fitting and proper that we should do this.

But, in a larger sense, we can not dedicate -- we can not consecrate -- we can not hallow -- this ground. The brave men, living and dead, who struggled here, have consecrated it, far above our poor power to add or detract. The world will little note, nor long remember what we say here, but it can never forget what they did here. It is for us the living, rather, to be dedicated here to the unfinished work which they who fought here have thus far so nobly advanced. It is rather for us to be here dedicated to the great task remaining before us -- that from these honored dead we take increased devotion to that cause for which they gave the last full measure of devotion -- that we here highly resolve that these dead shall not have died in vain -- that this nation, under God, shall have a new birth of freedom -- and that government of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the earth.

87年前，我们的先辈在这个大陆上创建了一个新的国家。她孕育于自由之中，奉行人人生来平等的信条。

现在我们正进行一场伟大的内战，以考验这个国家，或者任何一个孕育于自由和奉行人人生来平等信条的国家是否能够长久坚持下去。我们相聚在这场战争的一个伟大战场上，我们来到这里把这战场的一部分奉献给那些为国家生存而捐躯的人们，作为他们最后的安息之所。我们这样做是完全适合的、恰当的。但是，从更高的意义上说，我们是不能奉献，不能圣化，也不能神化这片土地的，因为那些曾经在这里战斗过的人们，活着的和死去的人们，已经圣化了这片土地，他们所做的远非我们的微薄之力所能扬抑。这个世界不大会注意也不会长久记得我们今天在这里所说的话，但是，它永远不会忘记勇士们在这里所做的事。

毋宁说，我们活着的人，应该献身于留在我们面前的伟大任务：从这些光荣的死者身上汲取更多的献身精神，以完成他们精诚所至的事业；我们在此下定更大的决心，以不让死者白白牺牲；让这个国家在上帝的保佑下获得自由的新生；让这个民有、民治、民享的 *** 与世长存。

sevenglory 的资料有么。

里面找了。居然没有。
2004年成立的乐队，其实也是支独立摇滚乐队，06年发过一张专辑，向其他乐队一样，他们在无尽的创作 *** 下，完成了这张专辑，他们在一起讨论音乐就会无休止，尽管在某些点上并不能达成一致

尽管受到像Jimmy Eat World, Radiohead和古典摇滚传奇人物Lynyrd Skynyrd音乐的影响，但在音乐上仍有一个共同的目标，那就是完成一张琅琅上口流行摇滚专辑，让人听罢难以放下的专辑，于是就有了这一张计划了两年的专辑——Atmosphere

随着复杂的旋律和轻拍吉他的节奏就更有了Sevenglory的风格，这并不能演示乐队在音乐上的热情和野心，当然作为Christan Rock乐队，坚定自己的信仰，于是他们就在最近与世界儿童组织一起为战乱和贫困的国家做贡献

其中“Just Me”这首歌已经在 Radio & Records CHR chart 排名第九，
个人也觉得这首歌挺好听的，在My Space上有，大家可以试听一下，“The Hope”据说是为AIDS而写的~~
感觉主唱声线挺好的，歌曲嘛，算主流的吧！我也是在My Space上看的，呵呵。大家也可以去看看.点击右边： My Space of Sevenglory

Like any band with an insatiable need to act on its creative impulses, the members of sevenglory can� help but get excited whenever the conversation turns to musicven if they could never collectively agree on a favorite ban

Despite a menagerie of musical influences, including Jimmy Eat World, Radiohead, and classic rock legend Lynyrd Skynyrd, the band still has a singular goal: to craft catchy pop/rock songs that�l stick with listeners for the long haul. And that� something sevenglory successfully accomplishes on its much-anticipated sophomore project, Atmospher

Beyond the intricate melodies and memorable guitar licks is plenty of substance to go along with sevenglory� sense of style. And it doesn� take too many listens to realize that the band� enthusia *** for its message far outweighs any of its musical ambitions. Converting its stalwart faith to action, they recently teamed up with World Vision to promote the organization� child sponsorship campaign in impoverished, war-torn countr
