Archaeology as a profession faces two major problems. First, it is the poorest of the poor. Only paltry sums are available for excavating and even less is available for publishing the results (5) and preserving the sites once excavated. Yet archaeologists deal with priceless objects every day. Second, there is the problem of illegal excavation, resulting in museum-quality pieces being sold to the highest bidder. (10) Iwould like to make an outrageous suggestion that would at one stroke provide funds for archaeology and reduce the amount of illegal digging. Iwould propose that scientific archaeological expeditions and governmental (15) authorities sell excavated artifacts on the open market. Such sales would provide substantial funds for the excavation and preservation of archaeological sites and the publication of results. At the same time, they would break the illegal (20) excavator's grip on the market, thereby decreasing the inducement to engage in illegal activities. You might object that professionals excavate to acquire knowledge, not money. Moreover, ancient artifacts are part of our global cultural heritage, (25) which should be available for all to appreciate, not sold to the highest bidder. Iagree. Sell nothing that has unique artistic merit or scientific value. But, you might reply, everything that comes out of the ground has scientific value. Here we part company. (30) Theoretically, you may be correct in claiming that every artifact has potential scientific value. Practically, you are wrong. I refer to the thousands of pottery vessels and ancient lamps that are essentially duplicates of (35) one another. In one small excavation in Cyprus, archaeologists recently uncovered 2,000 virtually indistinguishable small jugs in a single courtyard. Even precious royal seal impressions known as I'melekh handles have been found in abundance (40) —more than 4,000 examples so far. The basements of museums are simply not large enough to store the artifacts that are likely to be discovered in the future. There is not enough money even to catalog the finds; as a result, they 368 (45) cannot be found again and become as inaccessible as if they had never been discovered. Indeed, with the help of a computer, sold artifacts could be more accessible than are the pieces stored in bulging museum basements. Prior to sale, each could be (50) photographed and the list of the purchasers could be maintained on the computer. A purchaser could even be required to agree to return the piece if it should become needed for scientific purposes. It would be unrealistic to suggest that illegal (55) digging would stop if artifacts were sold on the open market. But the demand for the clandestine product would be substantially reduced. Who would want an unmarked pot when another was available whose provenance was known, and that was dated (60) stratigraphically by the professional archaeologist who excavated it? The primary purpose of the passage is to propose (A) an alternative to museum display of artifacts (B) a way to curb illegal digging while benefiting the archaeological profession (C) a wayto distinguish artifacts with scientific value from those that have no such value (D) the governmental regulation of archaeological sites (E) a new system for cataloging duplicate artifacts

问题：在“数的整除性质小节中”，第一段写到，如果a能被b整除，记作aΙb. 但如果照这么理解的话，为什么在性质3: 如果b、c都能整除a且b和c互质，那么b与c的积能整除a。以上说法化成公式的表示为：bΙa 。但如果根据上面的被整除表达，这里不应该写为aΙb嘛？

题目：1993年的元旦是星期五，1994年的元旦是星期几。 问题：在文字解释中提到，问题的实质是求用7去除某一天的天数后所得的余数。然后引出，因为15与365除以7后，余数都是1，所以15与365对于模7同余。但15这个数字是怎么推到出来的呢？

问题：由于以前完全没有学习过“同余”的概念，因此书中的解释完全不明白。还烦请MAY老师帮忙讲解一下。

题目：求143∧89（143的89次方）除以7的余数 问题：（1）如何利用同余的概念推出最后的结果的？ （2） 如果可以不用同余概念，还有什么其他方法可以处理此类题型嘛？

题目：A Printer numbered consecutively the pages of a book, beginning with 1 on the first page. In numbering the pages, he printed a total of 189 digits. How many pages are there in the book? 问题：看了中文翻译并听了管老师的讲解，我都没弄明白这个题目的解题思路。的别是对“a total of 189 digits”的处理。

题目：If n is a prime number greater than 3, what is the remainder when n的平方is divided by 12? 问题：当管老师解题时，他出了3个方程式，分别是： 1） n=3A+1, n的平方=9A(square)+6A+1 2) n=3A+2, n的平方=9A(square)+12A+4 3) n=2A+1, n的平方=4A(square)+4A+1 我不明白的点是：这3个方程式是怎么推到或者是一看到题目就这么设出来的？
