Passage 1
Questions 1 to 5 are based on the following passage:
In the USA, 85% of the population over the age of 21 approve of the death penalty. In the many states which still have the death penalty, some use the electrical chair, which can take up to 20 minutes to kill, while others use gas or lethal injection.
The first of these was the case of Ruth Ellis who was hanged for shooting her lover in what was generally regarded as a crime of passion. The second was hanged for murders which, it was later proved, had been committed by someone else.
The pro-hanging lobby uses four main arguments to support its call for the reintroduction of capital punishment. First, there is the deterrence theory, which argues that the potential murderers would think twice before committing the act if they knew that they might die if they were caught. The armed bank robber might, go back to being unarmed.
The other two arguments are more suspect. The idea of retribution demands that criminals should get what they deserve: if a murderer intentionally set out to commit a crime, he should accept the consequences. Retribution, which is just another word for revenge, is supported by the religious doctrine of an eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth.
The arguments against the death penalty are largely humanitarian. But there are also statistical reasons for opposing it: the deterrence figure do not add up. In Britain, 1903 was the record for executions and yet in 1904 the number of murders actually rose. There was a similar occurrence in 1946 and 1947. if the deterrence theory were correct, the rate should have fallen.
The other reasons to oppose the death penalty are largely a mater of individual conscience and belief. One is that murder is murder and the state has no more right to take a life than the
individual. The other is Christianity advises forgiveness, not revenge.

B.The state has the right to take a life but the individual does not
C.The death penalty has nothing to do with individual conscience and belief
D.The deterrence figures have added up and the execution rate has fallen.
Passage 2
Questions 6 to 10 are based on the following passage.
With the possible exception of equal rights, perhaps the most controversial issue across the United States today is death penalty. Many argue that it is an effective deterrent (威慑) murder, while others maintain there is no convincing evidence that the death penalty reduces the number of murders.
The principal argument advanced by those opposed to the death penalty, basically is that it is cruel and inhuman punishment, that it is the mark of a brutal society, and finally that its is of questionable effectiveness as a deterrent to crime anyway.
In our opinion, the death penalty is a necessary evil. Throughout recorded history there have always been those extreme individuals in every society who were capable of terribly violent crimes such as murder. But some are more extreme than others.
For example, it is one thing to take the life of another is a fit of blind rage, but quite another to coldly plot and carry out the murder of one or more people in the style of a butcher. Thus, murder, like all other crimes, is a matter of relative degree. While is could be argued with some conviction that the criminal in the first instance should be merely isolated from society, such should not be the fate of the latter type murder.
The value of the death penalty as a deterrent to crime may be open to debate. But the overwhelming majority of citizens believe that the death penalty protects them. Their belief is reinforced by evidence which shows that the death penalty deters murder. For example, from 1954 to 1963, when the death penalty was consistently imposed in California, the murder rate remained between three and four murders for each 100, 000 population. Since 1964 the death penalty has
been imposed only once, and the murder rate has arisen to 10.4 murders for each 100, 000 population. The sharp cli mb in the state’s murder rate, which began when executions stopped, is no coincidence. It is convincing evidence that the death penalty does deter many murderers. If the bill reestablishing the death penalty is vetoed (否决)，innocent people will be murdered—some whose lives may have been saved if the death penalty were in effect. This is literally a life or death matter. The lives of thousands of innocent people must be protected.
6. The principal purpose of the passage is to _________.
A. speak for the majority
B. initiate a veto of death penalty
C. criticize the government
D. argue for the value of the death penalty
7. The passage attempts to establish a relationship between ________.
A.the murder rate and the imposition of the death penalty
B.the effects of execution and the effects of isolation
C.the importance of equal rights and that of the death penalty
D.executions and murders
8. The author’s response to those who urge the death penalty for all degrees of murder would most likely be ________.
A. negative
B. friendly
C. supportive
D. hostile
9. In the passage the author is primarily concerned with ________.
A. analyzing a problem objectively
B. settling a dispute
C. supporting a position
D. describing an event
10. It can be inferred that the author thinks that _______.
A.the death penalty is the most controversial issue in the United States today
B.the second type murders (in Paragraph 4) should be sentenced to death
C.the veto of the bill reestablishing the death penalty is of little importance
D.the value of the death penalty as a deterrent to crime is not to be debated
Passage 3
Questions 11 to 15 are based on the following passage:
At the Kyoto conference on global warming in December 1997, it became abundantly clear how complex it has become to work out international agreements relating to the environment because of economic concerns unique to each country. It is no longer enough to try to forbid certain activities or to reduce emissions of certain substances. The global challenges of the interlink between the environment and development increasingly bring us to the core of the economic life of states. During the late 1980s we were able, through international agreements, to make deep cuts in emissions harmful to the ozone layer. These reductions were made possible because substitutions had been found for many of the harmful chemicals and, more important, because the harmful substances could be replaced without negative effects on employment and the economies of states.
Although the threat of global warming known to the world for decades and all countries and leaders agree that we need to deal with the problem, we also know that the effects of measures, especially harsh measures taken in some countries, would be mollified (抵消) if other countries do not control their emissions. Whereas the UN team on climate change has found that the emissions of carbon dioxide would have to be cut globally by 60% to stabilize the content of CO2, in the atmosphere, this path is not feasible for several reasons. Such deep cuts would cause a breakdown of the world economy. Important and populous low-or-medium-income countries are not willing
to undertake legal commitments about their energy uses. In addition, the state of world technology would not yet permit us to make such a big leap.
We must, however, find a solution to the threat of global warming early in the 21st century. Such a commitment would require a degree of shared vision and common responsibilities new to humanity. Success lies in the force of imaginations, in imagining what would happen if we fail to act. Although many living in cold regions would welcome the global-warming effect of a warmer summer, few would cheer the arrival of the subsequent tropical diseases, especially where there had been none.
11. The main purpose of the passage is to ________.
A.analyze the problem of global warming
B.argue against making deep cuts in emissions
C.convince people that global warming is a real threat
D.criticize some countries for refusing to cut down emissions harmful to the ozone layer
12. The reason why it is difficult to get rid of the threat of global warming is that ________.
A.not all the countries are willing to make deep cuts in emissions
B.many people welcome the global-warming effects a warmer summer
C.the leaders of many countries are not fully aware of the gravity of the problem
D.world technology is not able to solve the problem
13. In the passage the author implies that _________.
A.the world has recently become aware of the threat of global warming
B.the problem of global warming has largely been solved
C.it is always difficult to work out international agreements to cut down emissions harmful to
the ozone layer
D.it is no longer easy to reach international agreements relating to the environment
14.According to the author, it is impossible at present to cut 60% of carbon dioxide emissions globally because __________.
A.some people are irresponsible
B.it would cause a collapse of the world economy
C.it is only a goal to be reached in the future
D.some people are lacking in imagination
15. What should all countries do to help solve the problem of global warming?
A.They should hold another world conference on climate change.
B.They should provide advanced technology.
C.They should replace all the harmful substances.
D.They should willingly undertake legal commitments about their energy uses.
Passage 4
Questions 16 to 20 are based on the following passage:
The word science is heard so often in modern times that almost everybody has some notion of its meaning. On the other hand, its definition is difficult for many people. The meaning of the term is confused, but everyone should understand its meaning and objectives. Just to make the explanation as simple as possible, suppose science is defined as classified knowledge (facts).
Even in the true sciences distinguishing fact from fiction is not always easy. For this reason great care should be taken to distinguish between beliefs and truths. There is no danger as long as
a clear difference is made between temporary and proved explanations. For example, hypotheses (假设) and theories are attempts to explain natural phenomena. From these positions the scientist continues to experiment and observe until they are proved or discredited. The exact status of any explanation should be clearly labeled to avoid confusion.
The objectives of science are primarily the discovery and the subsequent understanding of the unknown. Man cannot be satisfied with recognizing that secrets exist in nature or that questions are unanswerable; he must solve them. Toward that end specialists in the field of biology and related fields of interest are directing much of their time and energy.
Actually, two basic approaches lead to the discovery of new information. One, aimed at studying curiosity, is referred to as pure science. The other is aimed at using knowledge for specific purposes—for instance, improving health, raising standards of living, or creating new consumer products. In this case knowledge is put to economic use. Such an approach is referred to as applied science.
Sometimes practical-minded people miss the point of pure science in thinking only of its immediate application for economic rewards. Chemists responsible for many of the discoveries could hardly have anticipated that their findings would one day result in application of such a practical nature as those directly related to life and death. The discovery of one bit of information opens the door to the discovery of another. Some discoveries seem so simple that one is amazed they were not made years ago; however, one should remember that the construction of the microscope had to precede the discovery of the cell. The host of scientists dedicating their lives to pure science are not apologetic about ignoring the practical side of their discoveries; they know from experience that most knowledge is eventually applied.
16. To define science we may simply call it _________.
A.the study of unrelated fields
B.classified knowledge
C.the study of unrelated subjects
D.an attempt to explain natural phenomena
17.Pure science, leading to the construction of a microscope, _________.
A.is not always pure as we suppose
B.necessarily results from applied science and the discovery of a cell
C.may lead to antiscientific, “impure” results
D.necessarily precedes applied science, leading to the discovery of a cell
18. A scientist interested in adding to our general knowledge about oxygen would probably call his
approach _________.
A. pure science
B. environmental science
C. applied science
D. agricultural science
19. Which of the following statements does the author imply?
A.In Science, it is not difficult to distinguish fact from fiction
B.Practical-minded people can understand the meaning and objectives of pure science.
C.Scientists engaged in theoretical research should not be blamed for ignoring the practical side
of their discoveries.
D.Today few people have any notions of the meaning of science.
20. The best title for the passage is _________.
A. Hypotheses and Theories
B. On distinguishing Fact from Fiction
C. The Nature of Science and Scientists
D. Biology and the Scientific Age
