Students learning English as a second language are sometimes given
a word by their teacher and asked to give an/a ___1__ (4B>? ) as
to what that word means; in other words, to provide a __2__
(:474). The __3__ ( ;;A84) is that if you know a word, you can
define it. __4__ (?65), that might make sense, but in reality it is
not always __5__ (,4 ;6) to assume that. There are words and
phrases that even native speakers use in conversation without much
__6__ (=) which can lead to __7__ (567A;4) when you ask a
native speaker to define them. Take the __8__ (565434) of
‘zeitgeist’, for example, which has entered English from German.
It’s __9__ (:6A<) much easier to use than it is to define. With a
word like ‘zeitgeist’ it may be more __10__ (;4;4) to test the

student’s understanding in ways other than asking them to define it.

Tens of thousands of ancient pictures
carved into the rocks at one of France’s
most important tourist sites are being
gradually destroyed. Scientists and
researchers fear that the 36.000 drawings
on rocks in Mont Bego in the French
Alps are being damaged so rapidly that
4@ will not survive for future
generations.
The mountain, believed to have once
been a site for prayer and worship, is
scattered with 4,000 year-old drawings
cut into bare rock. They include pictures
of cows with horns, cultivated fields and
various gods and goddesses. But as the
popularity of the site increases, the
pictures are being ruined by thoughtless
graffiti.
Jean Clottes is the chairman of the
International Committee on Rock Art. He
says, “People think that because the
picture have been there so long they will
always continue to be there. But if the
damage continues as this rate there will
be nothing left in 50 years.”
He describes seeing tourists stamping on
the drawings, wearing away the rock and

definition of the artwork as they do so.
Some visitors, he says, even chop off
parts to take home as souvenirs
“When people think they can’t take a
good enough photograph, they rub the
drawings to get a clearer picture,” he
said. “The drawings are polished by the
weather, and if the sun is shining and the
visitors can’t see them properly they
simply rub and scrape them to make them
look fresher.”
Other researchers describe hoe people
arrive carrying long sticks with sharp
ends to scratch their own drawings, or
even their names, in the rock.
But experts are divided over the best way
to preserve the drawings. Henry de
Lumley, director of the Museum of
Natural History in Paris, believes that the
only way to save the site is to turn the
whole mountain into a “no-go” area,
preventing the public from going
there except on guided tours.
Otherwise, he says, not only will the
site be completely destroyed but
important research work will be
reduced.
Clottes disagrees. “The measure
proposed by Henry de Lumley is the
most severe, and while it is the most

effective, it is also certain to bring
about protests from people who live
there,” he said. “The site was
classified as a historic monument
years ago by the Ministry of Culture,
and we must do as much as possible
to save what is there.”
David Lavergne, the regional
architect, also wants to avoid closing
the site. “Henry de Lumley’s idea
isn’t ideal,” he said. “Our department
feels that the best solution is to let
people look at the site, but because
the area is very big it is difficult to
prevent visitors from damaging it. I
would prefer that everyone was able
to look at it, but the main problem is
financial. We don’t have the funds to
employ the necessary number of
guards. We may have to consider
charging a fee. There seems to be no
prospect of government funding.”
In Nice, Annie Echassoux, who also
worked on researching the site, is
alarmed that as the mountain
becomes easier to reach – tourists
can now avoid the three-and-a-half-
hour walk by hiring vehicles – the
damage will increase rapidly. She
thinks that the only solution is to

rope off the area and provide guides.
“You can’t say the plan can’t go
ahead because there is no money,” he
said. “That is not good enough.
Money must be provided because the
Ministry of Culture has classified this
area as a historic site. If we don’t
take steps, we will be responsible for
losing the drawings for the next
generation.”

there

mean

A. set up research projects B. safeguard public rights

C. he has a better idea D. it will annoy local people
6. David Lavergne would refer to ________.
A. limit the number of visitors to the
site

to what that word means; in other words, to provide a __2__
(:474). The __3__ ( ;;A84) is that if you know a word, you can
define it. __4__ (?65), that might make sense, but in reality it is
not always __5__ (,4 ;6) to assume that. There are words and
phrases that even native speakers use in conversation without much
__6__ (=) which can lead to __7__ (567A;4) when you ask a

‘zeitgeist’, for example, which has entered English from German.

It’s __9__ (:6A<) much easier to use than it is to define. With a

Tens of thousands of ancient pictures
carved into the rocks at one of France’s
most important tourist sites are being
gradually destroyed. Scientists and
researchers fear that the 36.000 drawings
on rocks in Mont Bego in the French
Alps are being damaged so rapidly that
4@ will not survive for future
generations.
The mountain, believed to have once
been a site for prayer and worship, is
scattered with 4,000 year-old drawings
cut into bare rock. They include pictures
of cows with horns, cultivated fields and
various gods and goddesses. But as the
popularity of the site increases, the
pictures are being ruined by thoughtless
graffiti.
Jean Clottes is the chairman of the
International Committee on Rock Art. He
says, “People think that because the
picture have been there so long they will
always continue to be there. But if the
damage continues as this rate there will
be nothing left in 50 years.”
He describes seeing tourists stamping on
the drawings, wearing away the rock and
definition of the artwork as they do so.
Some visitors, he says, even chop off
parts to take home as souvenirs

“When people think they can’t take a
good enough photograph, they rub the
drawings to get a clearer picture,” he
said. “The drawings are polished by the
weather, and if the sun is shining and the
visitors can’t see them properly they
simply rub and scrape them to make them
preventing the public from going
there except on guided tours.
Otherwise, he says, not only will the
site be completely destroyed but
important research work will be
reduced.
Clottes disagrees. “The measure
proposed by Henry de Lumley is the
most severe, and while it is the most
effective, it is also certain to bring
about protests from people who live
there,” he said. “The site was
classified as a historic monument
years ago by the Ministry of Culture,
and we must do as much as possible
to save what is there.”
David Lavergne, the regional
architect, also wants to avoid closing
the site. “Henry de Lumley’s idea
isn’t ideal,” he said. “Our department
feels that the best solution is to let
people look at the site, but because
the area is very big it is difficult to

prevent visitors from damaging it. I
would prefer that everyone was able
to look at it, but the main problem is
financial. We don’t have the funds to
employ the necessary number of
guards. We may have to consider
charging a fee. There seems to be no
prospect of government funding.”
In Nice, Annie Echassoux, who also
worked on researching the site, is
alarmed that as the mountain
becomes easier to reach – tourists
can now avoid the three-and-a-half-
hour walk by hiring vehicles – the
1
look fresher.”
Other researchers describe hoe people
arrive carrying long sticks with sharp
ends to scratch their own drawings, or
even their names, in the rock.
But experts are divided over the best way
to preserve the drawings. Henry de
Lumley, director of the Museum of
Natural History in Paris, believes that the
only way to save the site is to turn the
whole mountain into a “no-go” area,
damage will increase rapidly. She
thinks that the only solution is to
rope off the area and provide guides.
“You can’t say the plan can’t go

ahead because there is no money,” he
said. “That is not good enough.
Money must be provided because the
Ministry of Culture has classified this
area as a historic site. If we don’t
take steps, we will be responsible for
losing the drawings for the next
generation.”
