[单选题]Most of the people who appear most often and most gloriously in the history books are great conquerors and generals and soldiers, whereas the people who really helped civilization forward are often never mentioned at all. We do not know who first set a broken leg, or launched a seaworthy boat, or calculated the【31】of the year, or manured a field; but we know【32】about the killers and destroyers. People think a great deal of them, so【33】so that on all the highest pillars in the great cities of the world you will find the figure of a conqueror or a general or a soldier. And I think most people believe that the greatest countries are【34】that have beaten in battle the greatest number of other countries and ruled over them as conquerors. It is just possible they are,【35】they are not the most civilized. Animals fight; so do savages; hence to be good at fighting is to be good in the way in【36】an animal or a savage is good, but it is not to be civilized. Even being good at getting other people to fight for you and【37】them how to do it most efficiently — this, after all, is【38】conquerors and generals have done -- is not being civilized. People fight to settle quarrels. Fighting means killing, and civilized peoples ought to be able to find some way of settling their disputes other【39】by seeing which side can kill off the greater number of other side, and then【40】that that side which has killed most has won.

[单选题]In Beijing there are ______ hotels with stars at present.

正确答案 ：C

about 400

解析：解析：本题的关键是找到这些选项中的数字在文中出现的地方，然后逐一对照确认即可。其依据句为“Beijing will have more than 800 hotels with star ratings before the Olympic Games in 2008. The city currently has 20 five-star hotels，34 four-star hotels and 338 other hotels with lower ratings.”可以看出，D选项内容是2008年的数字，A和B选项是五星和四星级宾馆的数字，而此题要求所有星级的宾馆总数。所以，答案是将不同星级宾馆数字相加，总数大约400(20+30+338)。

[单选题]Mrs. White's husband tried to ______.
