大学英语考试专业英语四级TEM4模拟题2020年(95)(总分100, 做题时间130分钟)CLOZEThe main purpose of English essay writing is to introduce you to the conventions of academic writing and critical thinking.While academic writing means different things to different people, there are some 【C1】______elements. We write to communicate to others, whether they are colleagues, professionals in their fields or friends. We write to【C2】______others that our position has power. We write to discover new things about our world as well as ourselves. For that matter, the process of writing is a way of coming to know. Writing can become a【C3】______for self-reflection, self-expression, **munication, a means of coming to know for both the writer and the reader.Learning to write requires writing. Writing is a craft, and as a craft, writing can be learned and【C4】______. Finally, writing takes practice, and as a writer, you will have opportunities to write both in the classroom as well as【C5】______. With that said, the goal I have for this class is to give you, as students, enough practice writing so that you will become more【C6】______writers by the end of this course than you were at the start.It is acknowledged that writing, reading, and learning are【C7】______intertwined. Writing is based on experience—experience with a text or personal experience —and that reading is a means to【C8】______experiences, especially when actively engaged by reading in a reasonable way. Much of the readings, lectures, and discussions may challenge **monly accepted assumptions and beliefs. You will be required to critically rethink and【C9】______popular concepts and ideas. One of the main goals for writing will be to understand how language informs and shapes our culture and society as well as our【C10】______lives and practices.A. outsideB. everydayC. broadeningD. enrichedE. reevaluateF. commonG. criticallyH. intricatelyI. recover J. convince K. widening L. mediumM. strategies N. effective O. refinedSSS_FILL1.【C1】SSS_FILL2.【C2】SSS_FILL3.【C3】SSS_FILL4.【C4】SSS_FILL5.【C5】SSS_FILL6.【C6】SSS_FILL7.【C7】SSS_FILL8.【C8】SSS_FILL9.【C9】SSS_FILL10.【C10】When Jules Verne wrote Journey to the Center of the Earth in 1864, there were many【C1】______theories about the nature of the Earth's interior. Some geologists thought that it contained a **pressed ball of glowing gas, while others suspected that it【C2】______of separate shells, each made of a different material. Most of our knowledge of the Earth's **es not from mines or boreholes, but from the study of seismic waves (震波) — powerful pulses of energy【C3】______by earthquakes.The way that seismic waves travel shows that the Earth's interior is far from uniform. The【C4】______and the seabed are formed by the crust (地壳) — a thin sphere of relatively light, solid rock. Beneath the crust lies the mantle, a very different layer thatextends approximately halfway to the Earth's center. There the rockis the subject of a battle between increasing heat and【C5】______pressure.In its high levels, the mantle is relatively cool; at greater depths, high temperatures make the rock behave more like a liquid than a solid. Deeper still, the pressure is even more【C6】______, preventing the rock from melting in spite of a higher temperature. Beyond a depth of around 2,900 kilometers, a great change takes place and the mantle gives【C7】______to the core. Some seismic waves cannot pass through the core and others are bent by it. From this and other evidence, geologists assume that the outer core is【C8】______liquid, with a solid center.The conditions in the Earth's core make it a far more【C9】______world than space. Its solid iron heart is subjected to unimaginable pressure and has a temperature of about 9,000 ° F. Although scientists can【C10】______about its nature, neither humans nor machines will ever be able to visit it.A. wayB. ponderC. alienD. ironE. growingF. harmoniousG. speculateH. consistedI. intense J. exactly K. continents L. conflictingM. highway N. released O. probablySSS_FILL11.【C1】SSS_FILL12.【C2】SSS_FILL13.【C3】SSS_FILL14.【C4】SSS_FILL15.【C5】SSS_FILL16.【C6】SSS_FILL17.【C7】SSS_FILL18.【C8】SSS_FILL19.【C9】SSS_FILL20.【C10】It is commonly believed that in the United States school is where people get an education. Nevertheless, it has been said that today children interrupt their education to go to school. The【C1】______between schooling and education implied by this remark is important.Education is much more open-ended and all-inclusive than schooling. Education has no【C2】______. It can take place anywhere, whether in the shower or on the job, whether in a kitchen or on a tractor. It includes both the【C3】______learning that takes place in school and the whole universe of informal leaning. The agents of education can 【C4】______from a revered grandparent to the people debatingpolitics on the radio, from a child to a distinguished scientist. Whereas schooling has a certain predictability, education quite often produces surprises. A(n)【C5】______ conversation with a stranger may lead a person to discover how little is known of other religions. People are【C6】______in education from infancy on. Education, then, is a very broad, inclusive term. It is a lifelong process, a process that starts long before the start of school and one that should be an integral part of one's entire life.Schooling, on the other hand, is a specific,【C7】______process, whose general pattern varies little from one setting to the next. Throughout a country, children arrive at school at【C8】______the same time, take assigned seats, use similar textbooks, take exams, and so on. The slices of reality that are to be learned, whether they are the alphabet or an understanding of the workings of governments, have usually been limited by the boundaries of the【C9】______beingtaught.For example, high-school students know that they are not likely to【C10】______ out in their classes the truth about political problems in **munities or what the newest filmmakers are experimenting with.A. formalizedB. accuratelyC. figureD. stretchE. engagedF. similarityG. subjectH. automaticI. chance J. range K. distinction L. divisionalM. approximately N. bounds O. formalSSS_FILL21.【C1】SSS_FILL22.【C2】SSS_FILL23.【C3】SSS_FILL24.【C4】SSS_FILL25.【C5】SSS_FILL26.【C6】SSS_FILL27.【C7】SSS_FILL28.【C8】SSS_FILL29.【C9】SSS_FILL 30.【C10】1。

It argues that, in fact, these young people are frittering away as much as half of their time again as they would if they performed the very same tasks one after another.Some young people are juggling an ever larger number of electronic devices as they study. At the same time as they are working, young adults are also【C2】sur the Internet, or sending out emails to their friends, and/or answering the phone and listening to music on their iPods or on another computer. As some new device comes along, it too is added to the list rather than【C3】(place)one of the existing devices. Other research ha【s C4】ind that this multi-tasking is even affecting the way of families themselves function as young people are too wrapped up in their own isolated worlds to interact with the other people around them. They can 【C5】longer greet family members when they enter the house, nor can they eat at the family table. All this electronic wizardry is supposedly also seriously affecting young people's performance at 【C6】uni andin the workplace. When asked about their perception of the impact of modern gadgets on their performance of tasks, the overwhelming majority of young people gave a 【C7 】(favour)response. The response from the academic and business worlds was not quite as positive. The former feel that multi-tasking with electronic gadgets by children affects later【C8】dev of study skills, resulting in a decline in the quality of writing, for example, because ofthe lack of concentration on task completion. They feel that many undergraduates now urgently need remedial help with study skills. Similarly, employers feel that young people【C9】ent the workforce need to be taught all over again, as they have become deskilled. While all this may be true, it must be borne in mind that more and more is expected of young people nowadays, in fact, too much. Praise rather than criticism is due 【C10 】respect of the way today's youth are able to cope, despite what the older generation throw at them.1.【C1】2.【C2】3.【C3】4.【C4】5.【C5】6.【C6】7.【C7】8.【C8】9.【C9】10.【C10】Part ⅢReading ComperhensionSection ALook at an atlas. How are mountains shown? Where are the highest mountains? A few mountains stand alone, such as Mount Egmont in New Zealand, and Mount Kenya in Africa. Most mountains are found in long chains called mountain ranges. The Pennines, the Cambrian Mountains, the Alps, the Andes and Rockies are examples of mountain ranges. The highest mountain range on the Earth is the Himalayas in Asia.In order to understand how mountains are formed, we need to know what the inside of the Earth is like. The Earth is made up of layers of rock. The outside layerof rock, the one we live on, is called the Earth's crust. Beneath the crust is a layer called the mantle. Near the top of the mantle, some of the rocks have melted and are a liquid, like sticky tar. Because all the rocks around it press on the mantle, the molten rock tries to force its way out. If the molten rock does find a weak spot, it bursts through the Earth's crust, forming a volcano. Some mountains were made by volcanoes. The Earth's crust is made up of large pieces, called plates, which fit together like the pieces of a jigsaw puzzle. Some of the plates carry continents, others carry oceans. The plates move slowly, floating on the molten rocks of the mantle below. As the plates move, theypush against each other, slowly pushing up the rocks in folds to form mountains. India used to be a long way from Asia, but gradually the plate with India on it moved closer to the plate bearing Asia. The rocks in the sea between India and Asia were pushed up in folds that now form the Himalayan mountain range. That is why it is sometimes possible to find seashells near the tops of the Himalayas. Many other mountain ranges, including the Alps, Rockies and Pen-nines , are similar great folds of rock. While some plates are pushing together, others are moving further apart. Europe and North America are slowly moving further apart. Each year the Atlantic Ocean is a few centimetres wider.As the rocks move, they often crack or break. These breaks are called faults. Sometimes, great blocks of rocks are pushed up between two faults. These blocks may be so large and high that they form mountains. Some of the highland areas of East Africa are block mountains, so are the Vosges mountains in France and the Sierra Nevada mountains in the western United States. Block mountains often have flat tops. A flat-topped highland is called a plateau.Questions 56—60 Complete the following form with no more than three words according tothe passage.56.57.58.59.60.Section BBy studying the notebooks, correspondence, a nd conversations of some of the world's great thinkers in science, art, and industry, scholars have identified the following thinking strategies that enable geniuses to generate original ideas:【B1】Sigmund Freud's analytical methods were designed to find details that didn't fit traditional paradigms in order to come up with a completelynew point of view. To solve a problem creatively , you must abandon the first approach that comesto mind, which usually stems from past experience , and reconceptualize the problem. Geniuses do not merely solve existing problems: they identify new ones. 【B2 】Geniuses develop visual and spatial abilities that allow them to display information in new ways. The explosion of creativityin the Renaissance was tied to the development of graphic illustration during that period, notablythe scientific diagrams of Leonardo da Vinci and Galileo Galilei. Galileo revolutionized science by making his thought graphically visible while his contemporaries used more conventional means. Geniuses produce. Thomas Edison held 1,093 patents, still a record. He guaranteed a high level of productivity by giving himself idea quotas: one minor invention every ten days and a major invention every six months. Johann Sebastian Bach wrote a cantata every week even when he was sick. Wolfgang Mozart produced more than 600 pieces of music. 【B3 】Like playful children with buckets of building blocks, geniuses constantly combine and recombine ideas, images, and thoughts. The laws of heredity were developed by Gregor Mendel , who combined mathematics and biology to create a new science of genetics. 【B4 】Their facility to connect the unconnected enables geniuses to see things others miss. Da Vinci noticed the similarity between the【B5 】sound of a bell and a stone hitting water-and concluded that sound travels in waves.Whenever we attempt to do something and fail, we end up doing something else.That's the first principle of creative accident. We may ask ourselves why we have failed to do what we intended, which is a reasonable question. But the creative accident leads to the question: What have we done? Answering that one in a novel, unexpected way is the essential creative act. It is not luck, but creative insight of the highest order. This may be the most important lesson of all: When youfind something interesting, drop everything and go with it. Too many talented people fail to make significant leaps of imagination because they've become fixated on their pre-conceived plan. Butnot the truly great minds. They don't wait for gifts of chance: they make them happen. Questions 61 —65Complete the passage with the following sentences. There are two extra sentences that you do not need to use. A. Geniuses make their thought visible.B. Geniuses prepare themselves for enhance.C. Geniuses make novel combinations.D. Geniuses look at problems from all angles.E. Geniuses have a really broad mind.F.

Here are some things you must know.There are many legends about the evolution of the festival , the most popular of which is in commemoration of Qu Yuan(340—278 BC). Qu Yuan was minister of the State of Chu and one of China's earliest poets. In face of great pressure from the powerful Qin State, he advocated enriching the country and strengthening its military forces so as to fight against the Qin. However, he was opposed by aristocrats and later deposed and exiled by King Huai. In his exiled days, he still cared much for his country and people and composed immortal poems including Li Sao(The Lament), Tian Wen(Heavenly Questions)and Jiu Ge(Nine Songs), which had far-reaching influences. In 278 BC, he heard the news that Qin troops had finally conquered Chu's capital, so he finished his last piece Huai Sha(Embracing Sand)and plunged himself into the Miluo River, clasping his arms to a large stone. The day happened to be the 5th of the 5th month in the Chinese lunar calendar. After his death, the people of Chu crowded to the bank of the river to pay their respects to him. The fishermen sailed their boats up and down the river to look for his body. People threw into the water zongzi(pyramid-shaped glutinous rice dumplings wrapped in reed or bamboo leaves)and eggs to divert possible fish or shrimp from attacking his body. An old doctor poured a jug of realgar wine(Chinese liquor seasoned w ith realgar)into the water, hoping to turn all aquatic beasts drunk. That's why people later followed the customs such as dragon boat racing, eating zongzi and drinking realgar wine on that day. Dragon boat racing is an indispensable part of the festival, held all over the country. As the gun is fired, people will see racers in dragon-shaped canoes pulling the oars harmoniously and hurriedly, accompanied by rapid drums, speeding toward their destination. Folk tales say the game o-riginates from the activities of seeking Qu Yuan's body, but experts, after painstaking and meticulous research, conclude that dragon boat racing is a semi-religious, semi-entertaining program from the Warring States Period(475—221 BC). On Dragon Boat Festival, parents also need to dress their children up witha perfume pouch. They first sew little bags with colorful silk cloth, then fill the bags with perfumesor herbal medicines , and finally string them with silk threads. The perfume pouch will be hung around the neck or tied to the front of a garment as an ornament. They are said to be able to ward off evil.Questions 66—70Answer the following questions according to the passage.11.When do Chinese people celebrate the Dragon Boat Festival every year?12.What masterpieces of Qu Yuan are mentioned in the passage?13.Why did Qu Yuan commit suicide?14.How do people celebrate the Dragon Boat Festival now?15.Why do parents prepare perfume pouches for their children on Dragon Boat Festival?Section DWhile baseball is often described as the national sport of the United States of America, it probably developed from an eighteenth-century English game called rounders. There were severalversions of the game until 1845, when Alexander J. Cartwright organized "a group of players to decide on one set of rules. The main change from rounders was that a runner had to be tagged or touched by a player holding the ball to be put out, rather than hit by a thrown ball. This meant that a smaller, harder ball could be used, which in turn made possible a faster, larger game. Until the mid-1860s, baseball was an amateur sport, which means that the players were not paid. The first professional team, the Cincinnati "Red Stockings" , was organized in 1869 and within two years the sport was more or less professional. Nowadays the best players can earn millions of dollars playing baseball. Professional baseball in the United States and Canada consists of two leagues and for the first half of the twentieth century there were also separate leagues for black players. The black leagues produced many excellent players but it wasn't until the 1940s, and the success o f Jackie Robinson playing for the Brooklyn " Dodgers" , that black players were integrated into white major-league baseball in the United States. Baseball has had a broad impact on popular culture, both in the United States and elsewhere. Dozens of English-language idioms have been derived from baseball, for instance, the baseball meaning of " out of the ball park" is to hit a home run, but its non-baseball equivalent is to do something well or exactly as it should be done. The baseball cap has become a worldwide fashion i-tem not only in the United States, but also in countries where the sport itself isnot particularly popular, such as the United Kingdom. Baseball has inspired many works of art and entertainment. One of the first major examples, Ernest Thayer's poem "Casey at the Bat" , appeared in 1888. There have been many baseball movies, including the Academy Award-winning The Prideof the Yankees(1942)and the Oscar nominees The Natural(1984)and Field of Dreams(1989). Literary works connected to the game include the short fiction of Ring Lardner and novels such as Robert Coover's The Universal Baseball Association, Inc. , J. Henry Waugh, Prop. Baseball's literary canon also includes the beat reportage of Damon Runyon: the columns of Grantland Rice, Red Smith, Dick Young, and Peter Gammons: and the essays of Roger Angell.

If Adelie penguin is swimming 【M6】quickly, it can jump 2 meters out of the water. They do this before they are 【M7 】being chased by leopard seals, which like to eat them.Emperor penguins can hold its breath underwater for twenty minutes. 【M8 】This means they can divevery deep to hunt for food. The deepest dive scientists know about is 458 meters. That's nearly half a kilometer!When the male emperor penguins are looking after eggs, they join together in tightly groups. In the middle of the group it might be 38℃, 【M9】while on the outside of the group it might be -35℃.

If your parents give you pocket money with no strings attached, I've got some bad news for you. Experts are now claiming that it may be harmful for teenagers t o get "free" pocket money. They argue that it makes them lazy and they may even end up in poverty. What's more, they say that youngsters will never learn the value of money if they don't earn it. Studies also indicate that youcan rarely expect teenagers to save their pocket money when they get it for free and often waste it on unnecessary things. However, if they have to do something in order to earn it, they usually learn to use their money wisely.Section B有些人的成功常常让周围的人大惑不解,因为他们似乎从来都不工作,或者没有长时间地工作。

Pilots sometimes record a birdstrike while at cruising altitudes, but most of them happen when an aircraft is relatively close to the ground, usually in proximity to an airport and during the circling, descent to land or take-off phases of a flight.Birdstrikes may cause significant damage to an aircraft and/or, if the birds are ingested into a jet engine, a significant and sudden loss of power. If this were to happen during take-off or initial climb of a fully loaded passenger aircraft the results could be catastrophic-loss of the aircraft and the lives of those on board. Any bird is a potential hazard to aircraft and this is especially true as bird numbers and bird size increase.Unfortunately airports themselves can be attractive to birds-rodents, insects and other small animals are a food source often found in flat grassed areas such as the runway strips. Even so, this problem can be reduced by careful habitat management or bird harassment techniques practised by airport maintenance and safety personnel.Care needs to be taken by local authorities in deciding the location of rubbish tips, or when permitting other land uses that may be attractive to birds in this way. Of course these effects cannot always be anticipated with certainty since birds such as gulls have been recorded as travelling 50 kilometres or more from their roosting area to an attractive food source.Local authority planning schemes often apply strict controls on developments such as abattoirs, cattle feed lots, grain handling, piggeries, canals and marina developments, fish farms, and suchlike. In most cases these uses will not be permitted without a full environmental study. That study should be required to deal with the question of likely bird hazards if the proposed location is in proximity to an airport.In some instances it may be necessary to consider ways of managing a particular land use inorder to reduce its attractiveness to birds, for example the adoption of land-fill measures at garbage tips, or enclosed rather than open-air activity. Specialist ornithological opinion may be necessary. In such cases it may not be possible to implement immediate changes in land use, but this should not inhibit the adoption of long-term measures which are designed to achieve this. Summary:A collision between an aircraft and one or more birds is known as a bird strike. It usually happens when an aircraft is close【A1】, and may result in significant damage of the aircraft or loss of the aircraft and【A2】of passengers and crew if they occur during take-off or initial climb. Because birds can find plenty food in flat grassed areas, airports are especially attractive to birds. However, the danger can be minimized by【A3】_____. Local authorities need to take care when deciding on【A4】It is suggested that a full environmental study should be made before making plans of developments on the land in proximity to an airport. Local authorities should get advice from specialists and take【A5】in order to bring about changes in land use.Section BResources can be said to be scarce in both an absolute and relative sense: the surface of the Earth is finite, imposing absolute scarcity: but the scarcity that concerns economists is the relative scarcity of resources for different uses. Materials used for one purpose can not at the same time be used for other purposes: if the quantity of an input is limited, the increased use of it in one manufacturing process must cause it to become less available for other uses.The cost of a product in terms of money may not measure its true cost to society. The true cost of, say, the construction of a supersonic jet is the value of the schools and refrigerators that will never be built as a result. Every act of production uses up some of society's available resources: it means the foregoing of an opportunity to produce something else. In deciding how to use resources most effectively to satisfy the wants of the community, this opportunity cost must ultimately be taken into account.In a market economy the price of a good and the quantity supplied depend on the cost of making it, and that cost, ultimately, is the cost of not making other goods. The market mechanism enforces this relationship. The cost of, say, a pair of shoes is the price of the leather, the labor, the fuel, and other elements used in producing them. However, the price of these inputs, in turn, depends on what they can produce elsewhere—if the leather can be used to produce handbags that are valued highly by consumers, the prices of leather would be correspondingly higher.61.This passage mainly discusses the finiteness and value of materials.A.TURE B.FALSE62.The cost of a product in terms of money measures its true cost to society.A.TURE B.FALSE63.The relationship between production and resources is that production reduces the amount of available resources.A.TURE B.FALSE64.What determines the price of goods in a market economy?65.Using land for a house and for a park, which one best reflects a cost to society as defined in the passage?Few words are more commonly used in our modern world than the word modern itself. The modernity of manufactured articles, of institutions, of attitudes, of works of art is constantly brought to our attention. We ourselves may well be judged by whether we are modern or not: indeed, many people go to considerable lengths to make quite certain that they will be accepted as modern-modern in their dress, their behavior, their beliefs. And yet, we may ask, must earlier generations not have felt precisely the same? Surely men throughout history must have recognized themselves as modern. Surely innovators like Julius Caesar, Peter the Great or Oliver Cromwell saw themselves as breaking with the past, as establishing a new order. Must they not also have shared our awareness of the significance of what is modern? What is modern is distinct from what belongs to the past and men in earlier times must have experienced this sense of distinctiveness. People cannot escape, and never have been able to escape, an awareness of change. Reflection will tell us that our awareness of change, our sense of distinctiveness, is very different from that of our predecessors. Change for us is more, much more, than the change brought about by the passing of time, by important events or by the actions of outstanding individuals or groups of people. We make use of change and are ourselves a part of a process of change. Change for us has become modernization and modernization implies both direction and consciousness. Change is something we seek, something we attempt to control and something that has no end.Our "modern" consciousness of change and this desire to direct change began with the Industrial Revolution. The term revolution is usually applied to a historical event that causes a major change in thought, life styles, and identity. We can normally speak of a time before the revolution and a time after the revolution. But the Industrial Revolution, although it had a beginning, has never come to an end. It is a process not yet stopped. It is a process which affects more and more people in more and more ways. We may argue that it is a process directed by humans. The whole process is, as yet, beyond control of any particular individual or group.We can decide the direction of modernization to some extent but we cannot decide to halt it. This has led to a disturbing situation. What we boast of as modern or up to date today, will be old-fashioned or out of date tomorrow. The noisy insistence that something is modern often conceals fear of the knowledge that it will inevitably soon be superseded. Again, the very fact that modernization has one direction only and involves every member of society permits only two attitudes: acceptance or rejection. The desire to change or modify the world we live in implies acceptance, since the world is a world of change. Rejection of modernization may, therefore, lead to a sense of the world as unreal and meaningless, and this, in turn, to a breakdown, either individual or social.66.The author believes that today people are often assessed by their______.67.People cannot escape, and never have been able to escape, ______.68.According to the author, modernization is a process that______.69.What does the passage say about the Industrial Revolution? ______.A.Unlike other revolutions, it was an event without a fairly clear end.B.Unlike other revolutions, it did not bring about major social changes.C.It was not a revolution in the true sense of the word.D.Its influence was limited to industry and economy.70.With little change of meaning, the phrase, as yet, in Line 7, Paragraph 2, could be replacedA.Therefore B.However C.Already D.StillSection DAlthough few would deny that it's better to be rich than poor, for some people the quest for money is so all-consuming that it extinguishes all other aspects of life.The cause of the compulsion to make enormous sums of money varies with the individual, but often money is a substitute for something a person's life lacks.(74)To some, money means security. To some, it means power. To others it means they are going to be able to buy love, and to a fourth group it means competition and winning the game. The belief that money can produce these things often leads to insomnia, heart attacks and problems with a spouse or children.A tremendous need for power is invariably the bottom line for those driven to make a lot of money. The bigger the pile, the more powerful they think they will feel. Parents and family background also influence a person's pursuit of money. Many people who grew up poor and then made a fortune live in fear that they will lose it. Others strive for money to compete with their wealthy, successful parents. They want to be successful at any price. They do not feel they should enjoy what they have earned.(75)Making money for its own sake can be addicting like high-stakes gambling. Some very wealthy people work so many hours, so hard and at such an intense pace that they totally neglect themselves. They don't eat right. They don't sleep right. They just act as if they were poor, as if they were struggling to make a dime.Many wealthy people are driven by the need for approval. But they may go out of their ways not to appear wealthy out of fear that they may receive less support from others.Obsession with money is a man's problem, but with the ranks of female executives growing, the feverish quest for money is becoming more of "equal-opportunity" problem. In some ways, women may have the greatest conflict with making money. In society's eyes, financial achievement is not fully satisfying for women. They must also be successful as nurturers.71.What is money in the author's point of view?72.What are the probable results of the wrong belief about money?73.What is the bottom line for those driven to make a lot of money?74.75.Error CorrectionDemographic indicators show that Americans in the postwar period were moreeager than ever to establish families. They quickly brought down the age at marriagefor both men and women and brought the birth rate to a twentieth century height 【M1】______ after more than a hundred years of a steady decline, producing the"baby boom. " 【M2】______ These young adults established a trend of early marriage and relatively largefamilies that went for more than two decades and caused a major but temporary 【M3】______ reversal of longterm demographic patterns. From the 1940s through the early1960s, Americans married at a high rate and at a younger age than their 【M4】______ Europen counterparts. 【M5】______Less noted but equally more significant, the men and women who formed 【M6】______ families between 1940 and 1960 nevertheless reduced the divorce rate after a 【M7】______ postwar peak: their marriages remained intact to a greater extent than did that of 【M8】______ couples who married in earlier as well as later decades.

In so many places it keeps us from seeing the sun, irritate(刺痛) our eyes, causes us to cough and makes us ill.Air pollution can spread from city to city. It even spreads from one country to another. Some northern European countries have had "black snow" from pollutants that have traveled through the air from other countries and have fallen with the snow. So air pollution is a global problem. It can kill babies, older people and those who have respiratory(呼吸) disease. In 1952, four thousands people die in one week as a result of a serious air pollution breakout in London. In 1948 in a small town of Pennsylvania, 20 people died in a four - day period of air pollution. As often found in cities, air pollution increases the risks of lung disease, such as bronchitis and asthma. Of course, smoking and other factors help to cause these illnesses, too, but these causes have increased greatly during recent years as air pollution has become worse.B21.

It is about 150 million kilometers.Energy from the sun heats the earth's surface. The earth would be too cold for life without our star's heat energy. Other stars are too far away to give the earth enough heat energy for life. Scientists wonder if there is life near other stars.Our sun is an average size star. It appears like the largest one, because it is the closest star. Some stars are smaller than our sun. Very small stars are called dwarf stars. Some of them are no larger than our small planets. Some stars are much larger than our sun. The largest stars are called giant stars.Not all stars are the same distance from the earth. The different distances make some giant stars appear very small.
