8.Like every language, American English is full of special expressions, phrases that come from the day-to-day life of the people and develop in their own way．Our expression today is “to face the music”． When someone says, “well, I guess I’ll have to face the music,” it does not mean he’s planning to go to the concert．It is something far less pleasant, like being called in by your boss to explain why you did this and did that, and why you didn’t do this or that．Sour music indeed, but it has to be faced At sometime or another, every one of us has had to face the music, especially as children．We can all remember father’s angry voice, “I want to talk to you．” and only because we did not obey him．What an unpleasant business it was! The phrase “to face the music” is familiar to every American, young and old,It is at least 100 years old ．And where did this expression come from? The first explanation comes from the American novelist, James Fenimore Looper．He said, in 1851, that the expression was first used by actors while waiting in the wings to go on the stage．When they got their cue to go on, they often said, “Well, it’s time to face the music．” And that was exactly what they did — facing the orchestra which was just below them．And an actor might be frightened or nervous as he moved on to the stage in front of an audience that might be friendly or perhaps hostile, especially if he forgot his lines．But he had to go out．If he did not, there would be no play．So the expression “to face the music” come to mean “having to go through something, no matter how unpleasant the experience might be, because you knew you had no choice．” Other explanations about the expression go back to the army．When the men faced an inspection by their leader, the soldiers would be worried about how well they looked ．Was their equipment clean, shinny enough to pass the inspection? Still the men had to go out and face the music of the band as well as the inspection．What else could they do? Another army explanation is more closely related to the idea of facing the results and accepting the responsibility for something that should not have been done．As, for example when a man is forced out of the army because he did something terrible, he is dishonored ．The band does not play．Only the drums tap a sad, slow beat．The soldier is forced to leave, facing such music as it is and facing the back of his horse．[单选题] The underlined word “hostile” means _______．

10.根据以下资料，回答21-24题。 　　There Pictures from outer space now show us how much land has changed on earth．These images are taken by Landsat 7, a government satellite．The satellites have been used for 27 years．They reveal the clear-cutting of forests in the northwestern part of the United States．Pictures show the loss of rain forests in South America. 　　NASA's Darrel Williams speaks about the Landsat 7 Project．He said that an eruption caused trees to burn up in a large forest．Fifteen years later, pinkish images from space show that the trees and plant life are growing again．Williams says that clear-cut areas easily show up in the pictures．He wants Americans to look at how much land is being cleared of forests in our country. 　　Satellites have provided other information about changes on earth．In the past ten years, more than four miles have shrunk from glaciers in Alaska．Landsat 7 received these computer images of Glacier Bay in Alaska. 　　Hurricanes Floyd and Irene have damaged the coastline in North Carolina．Runoff from farms and silt have gone into the．ocean according to satellite images．Loss of trees and forests have caused hotter summers in southern cities such as Atlanta, Georgia. The Landsat 7 images are like pictures in a photo album．Instead of pictures of the family, the album shows changes around the globe in the past 25 years. 　　A new satellite, Terra, is going to be launched by NASA soon．It will be more advanced than Landsat 7 and will take important global pictures．Ocean temperatures and energy loss will be provided by Terra daily.24 Terra will be a better satellite because

It was sunrise on an August morning when the captainand his crew cast their netssome 50 miles south of Louisiana in the Gulf of Mexico.As the net was pulled over,thecontents poured out followed by excited cries of"Coins!Coins!"The fishermen quickly realized they had realized a fisherman's dream:sunken treasure!And not just any treasure,but early American silver dollars that had gone down 210 years earlier.

In 1784,at the end of the American Revolutionary War,a heavily armed ship wasbound for the port of New Orleans.On board was a fortune in Spanish Silver Dollars.Hundreds of thousands of them were loaded for the trip to New Orleans,yet not a singleone arrived.With no survivors from the ill-fated voyage,historians can only guess at whathappened.Some say powerful storms took her down while others speculate it was treasurehungry pirates(海盗）。Whatever happened,the secret-along with a treasure valued near＄100,000,000 in today's dollars-was sent to a watery gravesome 300 feet below theocean's surface.

Spanish Silver Dollars were the favorite coins of colonial Americans.Widely used andaccepted as payment in the thirteen colonies,the United States government gave them thestatus of official legal tender.Unfortunately,even though they were struck in large quantities,not many of them survive today.After the Civil War,the government withdrew themfrom circulation and they were melted down.Due to the historic discovery of this treasure,GovMint.com is releasing these coins tothe public for an amazingly low price.For a limited time,those authentic silver dollars arepriced at$49 plus shipping and handling-a dramatic reduction from the market price ofthis coin anywhere else worldwide.2.What happened to the ship heading for New Orleans in 1784?（）
