三、阅读理解(每小题2分,共30分)
Along with the Great Pyramid in Egypt, the Great Sphinx is one of the greatest monuments(历史遗迹) in human history.
Carved(雕刻) out of a single piece of stone of hundreds of tons, the Sphinx is the head of a man resting on the body of a lion. The nose, eyes and ears have been carved in the accurate proportions(比例). That's not easy for an object 180 meters long, 64 meters high and 35 meters wide. The Sphinx was built about 2600 BC. But no one knows what tools were used or by whom. The Egyptians wrote very little about the building of the Sphinx. No one knows what the Sphinx looked like when it was first finished because both natural erosion(侵蚀) and people's damage have changed its shape. Many earlier pictures of the Sphinx show it with wings, the body of a lion, and the face of a man.
Today only the man and the lion can be seen. To this day, people can't agree with each other on the true role of the Sphinx.

How to know yourself better
Most of us believe we know ourselves better than anyone else in the world. In fact, many people are still strangers to themselves. From now on, know yourself better. Take a moment to write down the things that you know about yourself — your interests, likes, dislikes, strong points, weak points, hopes, fears, dreams, etc. Think carefully and find out how they affect(影响) your life.
Another way is to take personality and psychological(心理的) tests. By answering the questions, you will understand how you think, make decisions, do things, communicate with people, live your life, etc.
Pay attention to what your family, friends, teachers and classmates say about you. Sometimes, other people who see you from their points of view can let you really know yourself.
Keep on learning about who you are. Every day you will have a new understanding about yourself. Keeping a diary will help you record these new discoveries. In some ways, knowing yourself takes a lifetime.
