About half of all people over 65 have 33 sleeping problems, such as insomnia, and deep sleep 34 in many 35 people often become very short or 36 completely. This 37 may be a normal part of aging, 38 it may result from medical problems that are common in elderly people and 39 the medications and 40 treatments for those problems.Experts say that if you feel drowsy during the 41 , even during boring activities, you 42 had enough sleep. If you routinely fall 43 within 5 minutes of lying down, you probably have severe 44 deprivation, possibly even a sleep 45 . Microsleeps, or very brief episodes of sleep in an otherwise 46 person, are another mark of sleep deprivation. In many cases, people are not 47 that they are experiencing microsleeps.

On Christmas Eve when Paul came out of his office, a street urchin was walking around the shiny new car, admiring it. “Is this your car, Mister” he asked.Paul nodded. “My brother gave it to me for Christmas.” The boy was astounded. “You mean your brother gave it to you and it didn’t cost you nothing Boy, I wish….” He hesitated.Of course Paul knew what he was going to wish for. He was going to wish he had a brother like that. But what the lad said jarred Paul all the way down to his heels.“I wish,” the boy went on, “that I could be a brother like that.”Paul loo ked at the boy in astonishment, then impulsively he added, “Would you like to take a ride in my automobile”“Oh yes, I’d love that.”After a short ride, the boy turned and with his eyes aglow, said, “Mister, would you mind driving in front of my house”Paul smiled a little. He thought he knew what the lad wanted. He wanted to show his neighbors that he could ride home in a big automobile. But Paul was wrong again. “Will you stop where those two steps are” the boy asked.He ran up the steps. Then in a little while Paul heard him coming back, but he was not coming fast. He was carrying his little crippled brother. He sat him down on the bottom step, then sort of squeezed up against him and pointed to the car.“There she is, Buddy, just like I told you upstairs. His brother gave it to him for Christmas and it didn’t cost him a cent. And some day I’m gonna give you one just like it…, then you can see for yourself all the pretty things in the Christmas windows that I’ve been trying to tell you about.”Paul got out and lifted the lad to the front seat of his car.

But you can slow your rate of wrinkling by eating the right foods to keep the fat layers under your skin sufficiently plump to maintain a smooth complexion. For example, while one baked sweet potato, eight ounces of orange juice or ten potato chips provide about 100 calories, only the sweet potato and orange juice supply quality calories. The sweet potato is rich in vitamin A, which helps skin cells shed smoothly, and the juice provides vitamin C, which helps form collagen, the supportive substance that gives youthful skin its elastic quality. Good sources of vitamin A include dark-green, orange and deep-yellow vegetables, and orange-colored fruits. Citrus fruits are a good source of vitamin C.Drink plenty of water. Once you’re past your 20s, many of your skin’s natural moisturizers—sweat and oil glands—shut down, and the top layer of skin thins out. As a result, skin no longer holds moisture well. Also, if you don’t drink enough water to replace what you lose every day through urination and perspiration, your body pulls what it needs from your cells, including skin cells, resulting in drier, older-looking skin.To minimize dryness, drink at least eight to ten eight-ounce glasses of water a day. Don’t count drinks such as coffee, tea and cola as part of your daily intake. They contain caffeine, a diuretic that may increase water loss from the skin, as will alcohol.Another symptom of aging you can offset with diet is lowered resistance to illness. However, vitamin E may strengthen the immune system. In an American study, researcher Simin Meydani gave 32 healthy adults over age 60 large doses of vitamin E twice a day for a month. As a result, their lymphocyte function was significantly improved. Foods rich in vitamin E include dark-green, leafy vegetables, legumes, nuts and whole-grain cereals.Food is not a quick fix for aging. But a sound diet—plenty of fiber, water and vitamin-rich, deep-colored fruits and vegetables—is bound to have a positive effect on your overall health and looks.56. To maintain a smooth complexion, you should C .A. slow your rate of wrinklingB. keep a certain fat layer under your skinC. eat some proper foodsD. drink plenty of coffee57.

But it’s still unusual to find women doing dirty or heavy jobs.Nikki Henriques is a car maintenance engineer in London. She used to be a secretary. Barty Phillips, a journalist with The Observer, a Sunday newspaper, asked her why she wanted to work with cars.“My first reason was independence,”she said. “I also wanted to use my hands, and I like learning about how things work. Many people prefer to have a woman repair their cars, too.”Nikki didn’t find it easy to become a car maintenance engineer. She went to a Government Skill Centre—a special sort of college where people can learn a new job—for twenty weeks. “Forten weeks I was the only woman among four hundred men, and some of them were rude to me, just because of my sex. It was also very tiring—from 8 in the morning to 5 at night, with only 30 minutes for lunch.” Now Nikki works free-lance—that is, she’s self-employed, working for herself and not for a garage or a company.Barty Phillips also spoke to Rose, who works as a general builder in Sheffield, an industrial town in the north of England. Like Nikki, Rose used to be a secretary. “I didn’t enjoy it at all,” she said. “I wanted to do more practical work, and I wanted to be self-employed.”Rose joined a women’s building co-operative, and she learnt her job from other people and from experience. However, many of the women in her group have been specially trained. Most of the jobs they do are improvements to buildings and general repairs.“People often say, ‘Oh, women aren’t strong enough,’ but I don’t think strength is important,”said Rose. “The important thing is to get used to doing a different sort of work.”Rose would like more women to come into the building industry. “Everything built at the moment is a product of man’s world. If women become builders, they will be able to understand the production of their houses and their towns.”56. There are laws in Britain to help women _____ D .A. get higher pay than menB. enjoy more freedom than menC. do whatever they like to doD. have equal chances with men in education and work57. The work of ____B__ is considered dirty or heavy.A. a newspaper journalistB. a car maintenance engineerC. a company managerD. an office secretary58. The job of a car maintenance engineer is to ___D______.A. manufacture carsB. sell carsC. keep cars for othersD. repair cars59. The most important reason for Nikki to be a car maintenance engineer is that ____A__ .A. she wants to be independentB. she has to make her own livingC. she likes to use her handsD. she wants to get the same pay as men60. Rose, who works as a general builder, ______ C .A. believes women are as strong as menB. admits women are much weaker than menC. wants more women to become buildersD. thinks women can learn more from practical work。

today.During the first few decacdes of the twentieth century，canned and convenience foods freed the family cook from full-time duty at the kitchen range.Then，in the 1940s，work in the wartime defense plants took more women out of the home than ever before，setting the pattern of the working wife and mother.Today about half of the country's married women are employed outside the home.But，unless family members pitch in with food preparation，women are not fully liberated from that chore.Instead many have become，in a sense，prisoners of the completely cooked convenience meal.It is easier to pick up a bucket of fried chicken on the way home from work or to take the family out for pizzas，or burgers than to start opening cans or heating up frozen dinners after a long，hard day.Also，the rising divorce rate means that there are more single working parents with children to feed.And many young adults and elderly people，as well as unmarried and divorced mature people，live alone rather than as part of a family unit and don't want to bother cooking for one.Fast food is appealing because it is fast，it doesn't require any dressing up，and it offers a"fun"break.21、American women left home to

Choose the ONE that best answers the question.Passage 1On the death of his wealthy old father, Duncan inherited a lot of money and property, but though his father had always been a very generous man, Duncan was of a very different character. In fact, a lot of people who knew him called him a miser.This was not quite right, because misers usually spend as little of their wealth on themselves as they give away. But Duncan was not like that at all. He had always liked to feel rich; to have the best of everything for himself, go to the best restaurants, stay in the best hotels, have beautiful houses and expensive holidays.Duncan had never had a job, and while his father was alive, he had at first been kept on rather a small allowance. Duncan had asked his father several times whether he could increase this, but his father knew about the young man’s extravagant ways and in his wisdom, always refused todo so.But then, when Duncan was twenty-one, the old man, who was already sixty-five and retired, suggested that he s hould marry. “I’m feeling old,” he said to his son, “and I’d like to see some grandchildren before I die.”Duncan was not keen to have the expense of a wife, and then children, but his father said, “If you marry, I’ll increase your allowance in exchange.”“By how much?” Duncan said. “Wife and children cost a lot of money.”His father, laughed and answered, “I’ll multiply it by three.”“All right,” said Duncan. He already had a girlfriend, so he asked her to marry him, and she agreed.But Duncan did not spend much of his increased allowance on his wife, nor on his children when they came. His wife always smelt expensive, because Duncan loved to have the luxury of the best scents around him, but he did not give her any jewelry, saying that she would inherit pl enty when his mother died. His wife did not feel very happy about this, as Duncan’s mother was only forty-five years old.Duncan also continued to spend as much money as he could get on luxuries for himself.One day he had just had lunch by himself at a very expensive restaurant, where every dish always tasted perfect, and had walked past the doorman, who had brought his car to the front for him, without giving him a tip.The doorman, who looked splendid in his beautiful uniform, helped him into his car and then said politely, “In case you lose your wallet on your way home, sir, please remember that you didn’t pull it out of your pocket here.”51. It would not be suitable to call Duncan a miser because D .A. he spent little of his wealth on himselfB. he gave his things to others without paymentC. he did both A and BD. he did A but not B52.

When the doorman said “In case…,” he meant B .A. troubleB. angerC. mischiefD. wellPassage 2Are you a compulsive spender, or do you hold on to your money as long as possible? Are you a bargain hunter? Would you rather use charge accounts than pay cash? Your answer to those questions will reflect your personality. According to psychologists, our individual money habits not only show our beliefs and values, but can also develop from past problems.Experts in psychology believe that for many people, money is an important symbol of strength and influence. Husbands who complain about their wives’ spending habits may be afraidthat they are losing power in their marriage. Wives, on the other hand, may waste huge amounts of money because they are angry with their husbands. In addition, many people consider money a symbol of love. They spend it on their families and friends to express love, or they buy themselves expensive presents because they need love.People can be addicted to different things, for example, alcohol, drugs, certain foods, or even television. They are compulsive in their addictions, that is, they must satisfy these needs to feel comfortable. In the same way, according to psychologists, compulsive spenders must spend more money. For those who buy on credit, furthermore, charge accounts are even more exciting than money: in other words, these people feel that with credit they can do anything. Their pleasure at spending enormous amounts is actually greater than the pleasure they get from the things they buy.There is even a special psychology of bargain hunting. To save money, of course, most people look for sales, low prices, and discounts. Compulsive bargain hunters, however, often buy things that they don’t need just because they are cheap. They want to believe that they are helping their budget, but they are really playing an exciting game: when they can buy something for less than other people, they are winning.It is not only scientists, of course, who understand the psychology of spending habits, but also business people. Stores, companies, and advertisers use psychology to increase business. They consider people’s needs for love, power or influence, as well as their values, beliefs and opinions, in their advertising and sales methods.Psychologists often use a method called “behavior therapy”to help individuals solve their personality problems. In the same way, they can help people who feel that they have problems with money. They give them “assignments.”If a person buys something in every store that he enters, for instance, a therapist might teach him self-discipline in this way. On the first day of his therapy, he must go into a store, stay for five minutes, and then leave. On the second day, he should stay for ten minutes and try something on. On the third day he stays for fifteen minutes, asks the sales clerk a question, but does not buy anything. Soon he will learn that nothing bad will happen to him if he doesn’t buy anything, and he can solve the problem of his compulsive buying.56. For many people, money is an important symbol of _____B_____.A. beliefs and valuesB. power and influenceC. pleasureD. personality57. When wives are angry with their husbands, they tend to ____D_______.A. worry about their power in marriageB. become compulsive spendersC. consider money a symbol of loveD. buy expensive presents for families and friends58. According to psychologists, compulsive spenders must spend more money because ____D______.A. they’re addicted to buying thingsB. they’re compulsive in their addictionsC. they must satisfy their needs to feel comfortableD. all of the above59. Charge accounts are even more exciting than money in that ____A______.A. they enables people to do anythingB. they made people feel pleased。

Reading Comprehension (40%)There are 4 passages in this part. Each passage is followed by some True-False questions or Multiple-Choice questions. Choose among A, B, C, and D or between T and F to answer each question. Write the letter of your choice on your Answer Sheet.Passage 1If we view a science as a body of systematized knowledge, then chemistry is usually called a natural science because it is concerned with knowledge of the natural world. At times we may wonder why there is no complete system into which all of chemistry fits perfectly. Gaps in the present system, however, show that chemis try is still a growing subject and that we haven’t yet discovered all of its facts, laws, and theories. In other words, chemistry as a science is very much with us today, and its future holds the bright promise of much more to come.Man’s knowledge about h imself and nature has grown into a variety of sciences. The growth of the separate sciences has been more developmental than intentional. The separation of the naturalsciences into physical and biological sciences, and physical sciences into physics and chemistry, happily breaks up a larger body of knowledge into more manageable parts. At the same time we should remember that the concepts, techniques, and applications of the various sciences are interdependent and not exclusively a part of one science or another. In this respect, chemistry is a key science among the natural sciences because everyone, regardless of the area of natural science he wishes to pursue, needs at least an introduction to the principles and simpler applications of chemistry as a foundation for his specialty.Chemistry deals with the properties of matter, changes in matter, the laws and principles describing these changes, and the concepts and theories that interpret them. Traditionally, chemistry has evolved into four provinces: organic, inorganic, physical, and analytical chemistry.The traditional area of organic chemistry is concerned primarily with compounds of carbon, and inorganic chemistry deals with non-carbon compounds. Physical chemistry, a productive marriage of physics with chemistry, includes the problems of chemical reactions, the energy associated with them, the structure of molecules, and the nature of various states of matter. Analytical chemistry emphasizes the development of precise methods of analyzing the chemical composition of substance. Analysis may be qualitative (what is in it?) or quantitative (how much of each component is in it?). In recent years, the development of a wide variety of electronic tools has greatly speeded up the chemist’s work and has made poss ible more accurate measurements as well as measurements of new factors.Chemistry has grown up as a discipline during the past 200 years. It is younger than astronomy but older than psychology. Today, when a student begins to study a discipline, such as chemistry, it may appear to him that the subject is completely “worked out,” that all the answers have been found, and that there is nothing new to discover. Because there is a huge body of knowledge — facts, theories, and applications—already worked out, this impression is understandable. However, more new chemistry than ever is now being discovered in these three areas. There are over tow million entries in the current index to the chemical literature each year, and at least 300,000 new compounds are made annually. An intellectual discipline must provide for freedom of exchange of ideas, discoveries, and applications. Consequently, an intellectual discipline thrives best in an academic atmosphere.51.

It has been suggested that the superficial differences between the two—wide-open spaces contrasting withbrick and concrete—are less important than the contrasting attitudes of town and country.I am one of the many city people who are always saying that given the choice we would prefer to live in the country away from the dirt and noise of a large city. I have managed to convince myself that if it weren’t for my job I would immediately head out for the open spaces and go back to nature in some sleepy village buried in the country. But how realistic is this dream?Cities can be frightening places. The majority of the population live in noisy massive tower blocks. The sense of belonging to a community tends to disappear when you live fifteen floors up. All you can see from your window is sky, or other blocks of flats. Children become aggressive and nervous, staying at home all day, with nowhere to play; their mothers feel isolated form the rest of the world. Strangely enough, whereas in the past the inhabitants of one street all knew each other, nowadays people on the same floor in tower blocks don’t even say hello to each other.Country life, on the other hand, differs from this kind of isolated existence in that a sense of community generally binds the inhabitants of small villages together. People have the advantage of knowing that there is always someone to turn to when they need help. But country life has disadvantages too. While it is true that you may be among friends in a village, it is also true that you are cut off from the exciting and important events that take place in cities. There’s little possibility o f going to a new show or the latest movie. Shopping becomes a major problem, and for anything slightly out of the ordinary you have to go on an expedition to the nearest large town. The city-dweller who leaves for the country is often oppressed by a sense of unbearable stillness and quiet.What, then, is the answer? The country has the advantage of peace and quiet, but suffers from the disadvantage of being cut off; the city breeds neurosis and a feeling of isolation—constant noise batters the senses. But one of its main advantages is that you are at the centre of things, and that life doesn’t come to an end at half past nine at night. Some people have found (or rather bought) a compromise between the two; they have expressed their preference for the “quiet life” by leaving the suburbs and moving to villages within commuting distance of the large cities.56. In the author’s opinion, ____C_____.A. city life is better than country lifeB. country life is better than city lifeC. city life and country life have their own advantages and disadvantages eachD. neither of city life and country life is desirable57.

Though they have learned a great deal, they still have not discovered the causes of volcanic action. They know that the inside of the earth is very hot, but they are not sure exactly what causes the great heat. Some geologists have thought that the heat is caused by the great pressure of the earth’s outer layers. Or the heat may be left from the time when the earth was formed. During the last sixty years, scientists have learned about radium, uranium, and other radioactive elements. These give out heat all the time as they change into other elements. Many scientists now believe that much of the heat inside the earth is produced by radioactive elements.Whatever the cause of the heat may be, we do know that the earth gets hotter the farther down we dig. In deep mines and oil wells the temperature rises about 1℉ for each 50 feet. At this rate the temperature 40 miles below the earth’s surface would be over 4,000℉. This is much hotter than necessary to melt rock. However, the pressure of the rock above keeps most materials from melting at their usual melting points. Geologists believe that the rock deep in the earth may be plastic. In other words, the ro ck yields slowly to pressure but is not liquid. But if some change in the earth’s crust releases the pressure, the rock melts. Then the hot, liquid rock can move up toward the surface. When the melted rock works its way close to the earth’s crust, a volcan o may be formed. The melted rock often contains steam and other gases under great pressure. If the rock above gives way, the pressure is released. Then the sudden expansion of the gases causes explosions. These blow the melted rock into pieces of different sizes and shoot them high in the air. Here they cool and harden into volcanic ash and cinders. Some of this material falls around the hole made in the earth’s surface. The melted rock may keep on rising and pour as lava. In this way, volcanic ash, cinders, and lava build up the cone-shaped mountains that we call volcanoes.61. Geologists have discovered the causes of volcanic action. F62. The deeper we dig, the hotter the earth is. T63. Rocks deep in the earth melt when the pressure from the rock above is lost. T64. The explosions blow the melted rock into pieces of different sizes and shoot them high in the airso that they cannot be found again. F65. V olcanoes are cone-shaped mountains built up by volcanic ash, cinders and lava. TPassage 4Individuals receive most of their income as suppliers of the factors of production. As laborers they receive wages. As landlords they receive rent. As lenders of money capital they receive interest. As owners, or part owners, of business firms they receive an income that is partly interest and partly profits. Their decisions in disposing of this income determine what goods will be produced and in what quantities.In primitive times, individuals and families satisfied their own wants directly by hunting and fishing and gathering wild foods. If they had clothing, it was the skins of animals they had killedthemselves. They built their own shelter in the form of huts or of tents made from skins. Later some people started to raise agricultural products and others started to breed domesticated animals for their own use. As long as these conditions persisted, the economy was simple to understand and explain.Later, however, we began to have some specialization and division of labor. Some skilled individuals began to devote most of their time to making bows and arrows and trading them to the hunters for meat. Some people discovered how to make clay pots and traded them to others for agricultural products. In some places people discovered how to weave cloth and traded the cloth for other products. Most primitive tribes developed some form of money to overcome the difficulties of direct barter exchange.Our present economic system represents an extremely high development of this principle of specialization and division of labor. Few people now produce goods for their own use and almost no one produces all the different kinds of goods that he wishes to use. Instead we find large numbers of individuals who devote all their working time to making a small part of one particular article or performing one particular operation in a productive process. Others are performing various kinds of specialized services. Most people sell their productive services for money and then use the money to buy goods and services that are produced by a large number of other people. Some people are engaged in making machines that will be used to make other machines or tools with which to manufacture goods.This process of specialization and division of labor results in a tremendously greater output of goods and services than would be possible without it. It also makes us extremely dependent upon other people both to buy the goods or services that we help to produce and to supply the goods or services for us to buy that we do not produce for ourselves. This interdependence contributes to the complexity and severity of many problems arising out of changes in economic activity. In spite of the problems created by interdependence, almost no one advocates a return to a system of individual family self-sufficiency. Not only would a return to self-sufficiency mean a greatly reduced standard of living; it is doubtful if the present population could even be maintained under such a system. 66. The individuals’ decisions in disposing of their money determine what goods will be producedand how many of each kind of goods will be produced. T67. The specialization and division of labor made the economy simpler to understand and explain. F68. Money was developed as a means to overcome the difficulties of direct barter exchange. T 68. Specialization and division of labor greatly speeded up the development of economy. T 70. The interdependence among people in modern society makes economic problems more complexand severe. TIV.

On Christmas Eve when Paul came out of his office, a street urchin was walking around the shiny new car, admiring it. “Is this your car, Mister?”he asked.Paul nodded. “My brother gave it to me for Christmas.”The boy was astounded. “You mean your brother gave it to you and it didn’t cost you nothing? Boy, I wish….”He hesitated.Of course Paul knew what he was going to wish for. He was going to wish he had a brother like that. But what the lad said jarred Paul all the way down to his heels.“I wish,”the boy went on, “that I could be a brother like that.”Paul looked at the boy in astonishment, then impulsively he added, “Would you like to take a ride in my automobile?”“Oh yes, I’d love that.”After a short ride, the boy turned and with his eyes aglow, said, “Mister, would you mind driving in front of my house?”Paul smiled a little. He thought he knew what the lad wanted. He wanted to show his neighbors that he could ride home in a big automobile. But Paul was wrong again. “Will you stop where those two steps are?”the boy asked.He ran up the steps. Then in a little while Paul heard him coming back, but he was not coming fast. He was carrying his little crippled brother. He sat him down on the bottom step, then sort of squeezed up against him and pointed to the car.“There she is, Buddy, just like I told you upstairs. His brother gave it to him for Christmas and it didn’t cost him a cent. And some day I’m gonna give you one just like it…, then you can see for yourself all the pretty things in the Christmas windows that I’ve been trying to tell you about.”Paul got out and lifted the lad to the front seat of his car.

But it’s still unusual to find women doing dirty or heavy jobs.Nikki Henriques is a car maintenance engineer in London. She used to be a secretary. Barty Phillips, a journalist with The Observer, a Sunday newspaper, asked her why she wanted to work with cars.“My first reason was independence,”she said. “I also wanted to use my hands, and I like learning about how things work. Many people prefer to have a woman repair their cars, too.”Nikki didn’t find it easy to become a car maintenance engineer. She went to a Government Skill Centre —a special sort of college where people can learn a new job—for twenty weeks. “For ten weeks I was the only woman among four hundred men, and some of them were rude to me, just because of my sex. It was also very tiring—from 8 in the morning to 5 at night, with only 30 minutes for lunch.”Now Nikki works free-lance—that is, she’s self-employed, working for herself and not for a garage or a company.Barty Phillips also spoke to Rose, who works as a general builder in Sheffield, an industrial town in the north of England. Like Nikki, Rose used to be a secretary. “I didn’t enjoy it at all,”she said. “I wanted to do more practical work, and I wanted to be self-employed.”Rose joined a women’s building co-operative, and she learnt her job from other people and from experience. However, many of the women in her group have been specially trained. Most of the jobs they do are improvements to buildings and general repairs.“People often say, ‘Oh, women aren’t strong enough,’but I don’t think strength is important,”said Rose. “The important thing is to get used to doing a different sort of work.”Rose would like more women to come into the building industry. “Everything built at the moment is a product of man’s world. If women become builders, they will be able to understand the production of their houses and their towns.”56. There are laws in Britain to help women _____ D .A. get higher pay than menB. enjoy more freedom than menC. do whatever they like to doD. have equal chances with men in education and work57. The work of ____B__ is considered dirty or heavy.A. a newspaper journalistB. a car maintenance engineerC. a company managerD. an office secretary58.

But you can slow your rate of wrinkling by eating the right foods to keep the fat layers under your skin sufficiently plump to maintain a smooth complexion. For example, while one baked sweet potato, eight ounces of orange juice or ten potato chips provide about 100 calories, only the sweet potato and orange juice supply quality calories. The sweet potato is rich in vitamin A, which helps skin cells shed smoothly, and the juice provides vitamin C, which helps form collagen, the supportive substance that gives youthful skin its elastic quality. Good sources of vitamin A include dark-green, orange and deep-yellow vegetables, and orange-colored fruits. Citrus fruits are a good source of vitamin C.Drink plenty of water. Once you’re past your 20s, many of your skin’s natural moisturizers—sweat and oil glands—shut down, and the top layer of skin thins out. As a result, skin no longer holds moisture well. Also, if you don’t drink enough water to replace what you lose every day through urination and perspiration, your body pulls what it needs from your cells, including skin cells, resulting in drier, older-looking skin.To minimize dryness, drink at least eight to ten eight-ounce glasses of water a day. Don’t count drinks such as coffee, tea and cola as part of your daily intake. They contain caffeine, a diuretic that may increase water loss from the skin, as will alcohol.Another symptom of aging you can offset with diet is lowered resistance to illness. However, vitamin E may strengthen the immune system. In an American study, researcher Simin Meydani gave 32 healthy adults over age 60 large doses of vitamin E twice a day for a month. As a result, their lymphocyte function was significantly improved.

Choose among A, B, C, and D or between T and F to answer each question. Write the letter of your choice on your Answer Sheet.Passage 1Most 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 length of the year, or manured a field; but we know all about the killers and destroyers. People think a great deal of them, so much 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 ruled over them as conquerors. It is just possible they are, but they are not the most civilized.腹有诗书气自华Animals fight; so do savages; hence to be good at fighting is to be good in the way in which 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 telling them how to do it most efficiently—this, after all, is what 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 than by seeing which side can kill off the greater number of the other side, and then saying that that side which has killed most has won. And not only has it won, but, because it has won, it has been in the right. For that is what going to war means; it means saying that might is right.That is what the story of mankind has on the whole been like. Even our own age has fought the two greatest wars in history, in which millions of people were killed or mutilated. And while today it is true that people do not fight and kill each other in the streets—while, that is to say, we have got to the stage of keeping the rules and behaving properly to each other in daily life—nations and countries have not learnt to do this yet, and still behave like savages.But we must not expect too much. After all, the race of men has only just started. From the point of view of evolution, human beings are very young children indeed, babies, in fact, of a few months old. Scientists reckon that there has been life of some sort on the earth in the form of jelly-fish and that kind of creature for about twelve hundred million years; but there have been men for only one million years, and there have been civilized men for about eight thousand years at the outside. These figures are difficult to grasp; so let us scale them down. Suppose that we reckon the whole past of living creatures on the earth as one hundred years; then the whole past of man works out at about one month, and during that month there have been civilizations for between seven and eight hours. So you see there has been little time to learn in, but there will be oceans of time in which to learn better. Taking man’s civilized past at about seven or eight hours, we may estimate his future, that is to say, the whole period between now and when the sun grows too cold to maintain life any longer on the earth, at about one hundred thousand years. Thus mankind is only at the beginning of its civilized life, and as I say, we must not expect too much. The past of man has been on the whole a pretty beastly business, a business of fighting and bullying and gorging and grabbing and hurting. We must not expect even civilized peoples not to have done these things. All we can ask is that they will sometimes have done something else.51. In the first sentence, the author says that .A.most history books were written by conquerors, generals and soldiersB.no one who really helped civilization forward is mentioned in any history bookC.history books tell us far more about conquerors and soldiers than about those who helpedcivilization forwardD.conquerors, generals and soldiers should not be mentioned in history books52. Most people believe that the greatest countries are .A.those that built the highest pillarsB.those that were beaten in battle by the greatest number of other countriesC.those that were ruled by the greatest number of conquerorsD.those that won the greatest number of battles against other countries53. The author says that civilized people .A.should not have any quarrels to settleB.should not fight when there are no quarrels to settleC.should settle their quarrels without fightingD.should settle their quarrels by seeing which side can kill off the greater number of the other side54. “Even our own age has fought the two greatest wars in history.” The author says this in order to show that our own age腹有诗书气自华is .A.different from those of the pastB.not much better than those of the pastC.much better than those of the pastD.not so civilized as those of the past55. The scale which the author uses for representing time is .A.one month=one million yearsB.one hundred years=eight thousand yearsC.one year=one million yearsD.one month=twelve hundred million yearsPassage 2The environment is everything that surrounds us: plants, animals, buildings, country, air, water—literally everything that can affect us in any way. The environment of a town, with its buildings and traffic and its noise and smells, where everyone is on top of everyone else, is a far cry from that of the countryside, with its fields and crops, its wild and domestic animals and its feeling of spaciousness. And the environment differs in different parts of the world.Ecology is the science of how living creatures and plants exist together and depend on each other and on local environment. Where an environment is undisturbed, the ecology of an area is in balance, but if a creature is exterminated or an alien species introduced, then the ecology of the district will be upset—in other words, the balance of nature will be disturbed.Man is a part of the environment and has done more to upset the ecology during his short span on earth than any other living creature. He has done this by his ignorance, his greed, and his wastefulness. He has poisoned the atmosphere and polluted both land and water. He has squandered the earth’s natural resources with no thought for the future, and he has thought out the most destructive ways of killing his fellow men—and every other sort of life at the same time.Since man has done so much damage, it is up to man to try to put matters right—if it is not already too late. If there is to be any remedy for our ills, that remedy ultimately lies in the hands of the young, and the sooner they start doing something about it, the better.One of t he main causes of the earth’s troubles is that the world is overpopulated and that this overpopulation is growing at an ever-increasing rate. At the same time we are using up our natural resources—fuels and mineral ores—at an ever-increasing rate with no hope of replacing them.For many years the earth has been unable to provide enough food for these rapidly expanding populations and the position is steadily deteriorating since the fertility of some of our richest soils has been lost and vast areas that were once fertile lands have turned into deserts. And the trouble with deserts is that they tend to creep outwards on to the fertile soils. What is now the northern Sahara Desert fed much of the civilised world 2,500 years ago.Even at this moment many of the earth’s natural treasures are being destroyed, many valuable animals and plants are being killed off, and it is becoming increasingly difficult to grow enough food to preserve much of the earth’s population fr om starvation. The situation is getting out of hand. Time is running out. But with your help, we may be able to reverse the trends which threaten our very existence.56. The environment of a town, …, is a far cry from that of the countryside….A. a great deal different fromB. a long distance fromC. a loud cry fromD. a cry from distance腹有诗书气自华57. Man is a part of … and has done more to upset the ecology….A. turn…overB. cause…to be disturbedC. cause…to worryD. cause confusion to…58. … he has thought out the most destructive ways of killing hi s fellow men….A. colleaguesB. other members of the mankindC. countrymenD. men working for him59. If there is to be any remedy for our ills, that remedy ultimately lies in.…A. bad deedsB. illnessC. diseaseD. sickness60. One of the main caus es … is…that this overpopulation is growing at an ever-increasing rate.A. valueB. costC. speedD. charge or paymentPassage 3The people who lived in Rome 2,000 years ago were already complaining about the noise in their city. They couldn’t sleep, they said, with all that traffic in the streets. For them, noise was merely a disturbance. For us it has become a real danger. We know that the sounds of an average city are loud enough to cause serious damage to the inhabitants’ hearing—in the United States, one person out of twenty has suffered some hearing loss. And all over the world the situation is getting worse all the time, since noise increases with the population.Noise has also increased enormously in the 20th century with the development of machines. We live surrounded by loud planes, trucks, motorcycles, buses, electric tools, radios, pneumatic drills—that roar day and night up to 90 or 100 decibels. The decibel is the unit used to measure the loudness of sound. A normal conversation reaches 55 decibels, thunder roars at 70 decibels, a jet plane goes to 100 decibels and more, and an ordinary subway train, approaching the station, can be twice as loud as the loudest jet. The average discotheque reaches around 118 decibels. At 120 decibels the ear stops hearing sound, and pain starts.Unfortunately, the human ear does not judge clearly the degree of loudness of a noise. A sound ten decibels louder than another one is felt as twice as loud, when in fact it is ten times louder. Since we cannot measure the increase or decrease of noise, we never know to what danger we are exposed.But it is not only our hearing that is threatened. It has been established that loud noises, over a period of time, cause loss of sleep, anger, and many mental and physical problems. Such problems have been observed among factory workers, prisoners in large prisons, and people who drive heavy trucks, operate pneumatic drills, or go frequently to rock-and-roll concerts.Is there a solution? We do know how to build quieter machines, if the public wants them. But merchants point out that people who buy motorcycles, for instance, prefer the loudest ones because they sound more powerful. Some cities are trying to enforce more strictly their anti-noise laws. In Memphis automobilists are fined fifty dollars for honking; they may lose their right to drive if they do it again. People who carry noisy radios in public places may lose them if they are caught with them.Actually, it will take everybody’s efforts to keep city noises from incre asing. Even so, say the experts, in twenty years the cities will be twice as loud as they are today because of the growth of the population. The inhabitants will have to shout to be heard at the dinner table. Unless, of course, they have all become completely deaf.61. The sounds of an average city won’t cause serious damage to the inhabitants’ hearing.F62. The development of machines is the only cause of the increase of noise.F63. The human ear cannot judge the loudness of a noise clearly.T64. We don’t know how to build quieter machines.F腹有诗书气自华65. If everybody makes his efforts to keep city noises from increasing, the cities will become quieter in twenty years.FPassage 4Why all the fuss about inflation? True, some people are paying higher prices for goods, but this clearly means that some people are also being paid more. The problem is that inflation redistributes economic welfare. Those who have fixed incomes—perhaps a pension or interest from bonds—suffer because the standard of living their incomes will buy falls lower and lower. Workers whose salaries are fixed by law or by long-term contracts are injured in the same way. At the same time debtors and employers are better off. Old debts are being repaid with cheap money, money that can be earned with a fraction of the effort that they represented when borrowed initially. Employers are profiting because the prices of their products are rising while the cost of the most important input—labor—remains unchanged at the contracted wage. But inflation also affects the distribution of income in more subtle ways. Since the American tax system is progressive—since it takes a larger share of incomes in taxes as incomes increase—inflation redistributes income from private households to the public sector.Widespread use of labor contracts, which often extend over three or more years, has recently resulted in reductions in the real wages paid to some workers. This in turn has made production more profitable. If prices paid to firms rise with inflation while wages are fixed by a contract negotiated earlier, the firm will earn greater profits and wish to expand its output. Inflation affects both the functional distribution of income (the allocation between wages and profits) and the level of employment. This phenomenon may be analyzed formally within the framework of the theory of wage determination. If wages and prices are stated in nominal terms, the effect of inflation is to increase the marginal revenue product of labor. Marginal revenue product, you will recall, is the increase in total revenue that results from hiring an additional worker. If prices rise, so will marginal revenue product. But wages have been set after nights of shrill bargaining by union and management representatives, and the nominal wage rate remains constant in spite of the rise in prices. Workers are worse off, of course; moreover, the most profitable levels of employment and production increase. In order to restore equilibrium, the firm must increase employment until the nominal wage is again equal to marginal revenue product.Inflation also affects the level of national income. Through its effects on the share of incomes going into taxes, inflation changes the value of the multiplier. Over the past decade this change has been significant. Also, by altering the size of distribution of incomes, inflation is likely to influence the marginal propensity to consume, at least in the short run. Finally, inflation at home reduces the competitiveness of exports in foreign markets and, if not matched by foreign inflation, increases the attractiveness of imports. Both of these phenomena reduce domestic aggregate demand and thereby lower equilibrium between national income and employment. The net effect of inflation on national income is unclear. Some of its consequences are expansionary (its effects on labor markets), but others are contractionary (its impact on net exports). The precise implications of inflation thus depend on how strong each of these effects is.66. During inflation debtors and employees are better off.T67. As a result of inflation, employers are profiting because the prices of their products are rising but the cost of labor remains unchanged at the contracted wageT68. Long-term labor contracts protect labors from being injured by inflation.F69. Inflation also affects the level of national income by changing the value of the multiplier between incomes and taxes.T70. Inflation in a country discourages both export and import.TIV.

Since then, innume rable children 32 in front of the set. However, many people now worry about the effect of TV on the young. They wonder there had never been 33 invention. Why are they so afraid? Is television really harmful?Like almost anything else, television has its good as well as its bad sides. It has 34 joy and interest into the lives of the old, the sick, and the lonely. Without it, some of these people would have little pleasure and no window 35 the world.Unfortunately, some television programs have been extremely harmful to the young. Children do not have enough 36 . They do not realize that TV programs often show an unreal world. Commercials lie in order to sell products that are sometimes bad or useless. Childrenbelieve them and want to 37 what they see on TV. They believe that they will make more friends if they use a certain soap—or some other product. They believe that the murders on TV 38 are normal and acceptable. By the time they are out of high school, most young people have watched about 15,000 hours of television, and have seen about 18,000 violent 39 . If they see violent deaths every day, how can they be shocked by murder in real life?Television has certainly changed our lives and our society. 40 its good points, it has brought many problems.

And even if a person is poor he doesn’t feel really poor 42 he has a car.There are three main reasons the car became so popular in the United States. 43 of all the country is a huge one and Americans like to move around in it. The car provides the most comfortable and 44 form of transportation. With a car people can go any place without spending a lot of money.The second reason cars are popular is the fact 45 the United States never developed an efficient and inexpensive form of public 46 . Long-distance trains have never been as common in the United States as they are in other parts of the world. Nowadays there is a good system of air-service 47 by planes. But it is too expensive to be used frequently.The third reason is the most important one, though. The American spirit of independence is 48 really made cars popular. Americans don’t like to wait for a bus, or a train or even a plane. They don’t like to have to 49 an exact schedule. A car gives them the freedom to schedule their own time.

Reading ComprehensionSection A: There are 2 passages in this section. Each passage is followed by some true-false questions. Decide whether each of them is true (T) or false (F).Passage 1In the old days, divers used to go down into the sea looking for ships that had sunk, because they hoped to find gold and jewels. Now divers still search for valuable things in sunken ships, but they also try to bring to the surface the ships themselves, or parts of them. The value of different kinds of metals has increased greatly over the last twenty or thirty years and even though a ship has been under the sea for many years, it may be worth a great deal.One famous sunken ship is the "Lusitania", which sank off the southern coast of Ireland in 1915 with a loss of nearly 1500 lives. It has four huge propellers made of an expensive metal. Today each of those propellers is worth $300,000 or more. The ship, lying on the sea-bed has been bought by a man called John Light. He paid about $1,200,000 for the whole ship. He hopes to bring up those propellers and sell them. He also hopes to sell other parts of the ship, when he has brought them to the surface, for about $ 600,000.T51. Divers try to bring up metals because some kinds of them are worth a lot of money.T52.

In the past, work for most people involved manual labor in the fresh open air of the fields. However, nowadays an increasing number of people are employed in offices or factories. Their daily work does not provide them with the amount of exercise their bodies need. Therefore, they have come to spend part of their free time doing regular physical exercise.There are many different forms of exercise to suit different tastes. For example, those who enjoy competitive sports may take up ball games. Those who prefer to exercise alone can have a run or take a walk in the morning or in the evening. Besides, people can go swimming in summer and go skating in winter. In short, no matter what their interests are, people can always find one or more sports that are suitable to them.However, the form of physical exercise must be chosen carefully. More harm than good will result if people choose the wrong form of exercise. For the aged, Qigong or Tai Ji Quan will suit them better than competitive sports. Those who have little spare time may have a regular run in the morning. Only if the kind of exercise is chosen properly and performed regularly, will it benefit people’s health, work and study.T56.
