It is only when we cannot see perfectly that we realize how important our eyes are.People who are near-sighted can only see things that are very close to their eyes. Everything else seems blurry. Many people who do a lot of work, such as writing, reading and sewing become near-sighted. People who are far-sighted suffer from just the opposite problem. They can see things that are far away, but they have difficulty in reading a book unless they hold it at arm’s length. If they want to do much reading, they must get glasses, too.Other people do not see clearly because their eyes are not exactly the right shape. They have what is called astigmatism (散光). This, too, can be corrected by glasses. Some people’s eyes become cloudy because of cataracts (白内障). Long ago these people often became blind. Now, however, it is possible to operate on the cataracts and remove them.Having two good eyes is important for judging distances. Each eye sees things from a slightly different angle. To prove this to yourself, look at an object out of one eye; then look at the same object out of your other eye. You will find the object’s relation to the background and othe r things around it has changed. The difference between these two different eye views helps us to judge how far away an object is. People who have only one eye cannot judge distances as people with two eyes.41. We should take good care of our eyes .A. only when we can see wellB. only when we cannot see perfectlyC. even if we can see wellD. only when we realize how important our eyes are42.When things far away seem indistinct(模糊不清) , one is probably .A. near-sightedB. far-sightedC. astigmaticD. suffering from cataracts43. The underlined word blurry in the second paragraph probably means .A. obviousB. possibleC. clearD. unclear44. Having two eyes instead of one is particularly useful for .A. seeing at nightB. seeing objects far awayC. looking over a wide areaD. judging distances45. People who suffer from astigmatism have .A. one eye bigger than the otherB. eyes that are not exactly the right shapeC. a difficulty that can be corrected by an operationD. an eye difficulty that cannot be corrected by glassesBFour American college students learned last week that free music downloads can carry a hidden price tag --- US $ 12,000 to $ 17,500, to be exact.Major record companies accused the students of fueling music piracy(盗版) by running file-sharing networks on campus allowing hundreds of songs to be downloaded for free.Last Thursday, the four promised not to violate the companies’ copyrights. Although they did not admit any wrongdoing, they each agreed to pay thousands of dollars to the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA).“I don’t believe that I did anything wrong,” said Daniel Peng at Princeton University, one of the four. “I hope that for the sake of artists, the larger issues can soon be resolved.” None appears to have made any money off the file-sharing systems they operated, which were confined to their campus’s computer networks.The payments mark the first time record companies have recovered money from individuals in the US accused of piracy on file-sharing networks. This may be a sign of things to come, as the industry starts taking its battle against online piracy directly to users.Many record-company executives blame the long slump in CD sales on file-sharing networks, which let users copy songs from each other’s computers for free.Matt Oppenheim, senior vice president of business and legal affairs for the RIAA, said the settlements, although well below what the companies could have asked for, were “the right amount” given the situation.He also noted that since the four lawsuits were filed, at least 18 campus file-sharing networks have been taken down by their operators.46. What does “a hidden price tag” (Paragraph 1) mean?A. Record companies intentionally hide the high price of the music.B. It happens that the music price tag isn’t obvious.C. One has to pay for having downloaded music freely at last.D. One has to pay for the music in the future even if it’s allowed to be downloaded freely now.47. Which of the following is true?A. The four students planned to violate the company’s copyright.B. They realized they had done a wrong thing.C. They refused to pay money to RIAA.D. They didn’t make any money on file-sharing networks.48. What’s the probable meaning of “slump” (Paragraph 6)?A. Decline.B. Increase.C. Keeping the same.D. Jump.49. What can we conclude from paragraph 6?A. Slump in CD sales is caused by the fact that people can copy songs free of charge onfile-sharing networks.B. Many record-company executives should bear the blame for long slump in CD sales.C. People have no desire to buy any CD.D. Nowadays CDs are not as popular as before.50. What’s the main idea of the whole passage?A. The students should be responsible for their behavior.B. It’s too late for record companies to protect their rights.C. Record companies have taken action to protect their copyrights by accusing individuals ofpiracy on file-sharing networks.D. Some record companies wanted to earn money by accusing people of pirating music.CThe case for college has been accepted without question for more than a generation. All high school graduates ought to go to college, says conventional wisdom and statistical evidence, because college will help them earn more money, become “better” people, and learn to be more responsible citizens than those who don’t go.But college has never been able to work its magic for everyone. And now that close to half our high school graduates are attending, those who don’t fit the pattern are becoming more numerous, and more obvious. College graduates are selling shoes and driving taxis, college students interfere with each other’s experiments and write false letters of recommendation in the in tense competition for admission to graduate school. Others find no stimulation in their studies, and drop out --- often encouraged by college administrators.Some observers say the fault is with the young people themselves --- they are spoiled and they ar e expecting too much. But that’s condemnation of the students as a whole, and doesn’t explain all campus unhappiness. Others blame the state of the world, and they are partly right. We have been told that young people have to go to college because our econ omy can’t absorb an army of untrained eighteen-year-olds. But disappointed graduates are learning that it can no longer absorb an army of trained twenty-two-year olds, either.Some adventuresome educators and campus watchers have openly begun to suggest that college may not be the best, the proper, the only place for every young person after the completion of high school. We may have been looking at all those survey and statistics upside down, it seems, and through the rosy glow of our own remembered coll ege experiences. Perhaps college doesn’t make people intelligent, ambitious, happy, liberal, and quick-learning people are merely the ones who have been attracted to college in the first place. And perhaps all those successful college graduates would have been successful whether they had gone to college or not. This is heresy(异端) to those of us who have been brought up to believe that if a little schooling is good more has to be better. But contrary evidence is beginning to mount up.51. According to the passage, the author believes that _________.A.people used to question the value of college educationB.people used to have full confidence in higher educationC.all high school graduates went to collegeD.very few high school graduates chose to go to college52. In the 2nd paragraph, “those who don’t fit the pattern” refers to _________.A.high school graduates who aren’t suitable for college educationB.college graduates who are selling shoes and driving taxisC.college students who aren’t any better for their higher e ducationD.high school graduates who failed to be admitted to college53. The drop-out rate of college students seems to go up because __________.A.young people are disappointed with the conventional way of teaching at collegeB.many young people are required to join the armyC.young people have little motivation in pursuing a higher educationD.young people don’t like the intense competition for admission to graduate school54. According to the passage the problem of college education partly arises from the fact that__________.A.society cannot provide enough jobs for properly trained college studentsB.high school graduates do not fit the pattern of college educationC.too many students have to earn their own livingD.college administrators encourage students to drop out55. In this passage the author argues that __________.A.more and more evidence shows college education may not be the best thing for all highschool graduatesB.college education is not enough if one wants to be successfulC.college education benefits only the intelligent, ambitious and quick-learning peopleD.intelligent people may learn quicker if they don’t go to college参考答案完形填空21-30: BDCBA DBACD语法填空31.like 32. but 33. an 34. have been burning 35. that / which 36. produced 37. as 38. easily 39. that 40. piling阅读理解题号41 42 43 44 45 46 47 48 49 50 51 52 53 54 55答案 C A D D B C D A A C B C C A A。

Without taking time to reflect, I answered, "Because someday I might say something that might make a difference in someone's life." Even though I was sincere, that wasn't a very good answer and my student didn't let it slide."Let me get this straight," he said, "You went to college for four years so you could come here every day because you have the hope that someday you might say something that will influence someone?" He shook his head as if I were crazy and walked away looking confused. I'm one of those people who look back and wish they had said something smart or witty, or swift.Even though that particular student might no longer wonder why I teach, there are days when I wonder. On those days, I remind myself of the real reasons I teach: It's in my blood. My mother was my most influential teacher, and she was a 6th grade reading teacher until her death in 1990. She instilled(逐渐灌输) in me a love of reading and the knowledge that education opens doors.Teaching is a way to make a difference. If you throw a stone in a pond the ripples go on and on until they reach the shore. You can't have ripples without a "stone." Good teachers throw stones that make a positive difference, and that's what I strive to do.I genuinely love teenagers.I want to share with others what I know and what I have learned through the years. Life is full of ups and downs, and if I can help students avoid some potholes on the road of life, I want to do so. If they'll allow me to celebrate their victories with them, I want to do too.Teaching isn't for everyone, but I know I made the right career choice.41. Why did the student continue to ask the question about the writer’s being a teacher?A. Because he thought her answer was unbelievable.B. Because the writer was insincere.C. Because the student was naughty.D. Because the answer was difficult to understand.42. What do you think of the writer?A. Stupid.B. Honest.C. Conservative.D. Polite.43. According to the text, which of the following is NOT true?A. The writer’s mother has the greatest influence on her.B. The writer’s answer made the student confused.C. In the writer’s opinion, some people in the world are unfit to teach.D. The writer annoyed the student who asked the question.44. We can infer from the text that _________.A. the writer was also a good teacher in schoolB. the writer often plays with her students beside a pondC. the writer devotes herself to teaching and her studentsD. the writer often accompanies the students on their way home45. What’s the main idea of the text?A. A student’s silly question.B. A good teacher who likes students.C. A confused student.D. The reason why I teach.BAmong various programs, TV talk shows have covered every inch of space on daytime television. And anyone who watches them regularly knows that each one is different in style. But no two shows are more opposite in content, while at the same time standing out above the rest, than the Jerry Springer and Oprah Winfrey shows.Jerry Springer could easily be considered the king of "rubbish talk". The topics on his show are as surprising as can be. For example, the show takes the ever-common talk show titles of love, sex, cheating, and hate, to a different level. Clearly, the Jerry Springer show is about the dark side of society, yet people are willing to eat up the troubles of other people's lives.Like Jerry Springer, Oprah Winfrey takes the TV talk show to its top. But Oprah goes in the opposite direction. The show is mainly about the improvement of society and different quality of life. Contents are from teaching your children lessons, managing your work week, to getting to know your neighbors.Compared to Oprah, the Jerry Springer show looks like poisonous waste being poured into society. Jerry ends every show with a "final word". He makes a small speech about the entire idea of the show. Hopefully, this is the part where most people will learn something very valuable.Clean as it is, the Oprah show is not for everyone. The show's main audience are middle-class Americans. Most of the people have the time, money and ability to deal with life's tough problems. Jerry Springer, on the other hand, has more of a connection with the young adults of society. These are 18-to 21year-olds whose main troubles in life include love, relationship, sex, money and drug. They are the ones who seesome value and lessons to be learned through the show's exploitation.46. Compared with other TV talk shows, both the Jerry Springer and the Oprah Winfrey shows are ______.A. more interestingB. unusually poplarC. more detailedD. more formal47. Though the social problems Jerry Springer talks about appear unpleasant, people who watch the shows ______.A. show disbelief in themB. are ready to face up to themC. remain cold to themD. are willing to get away from them48. Which of the following is likely to be a topic of the Oprah Winfrey show?A. A new type of robot.B. National hatred.C. Family income planning.D. Street accident.49. We can learn from the passage that the two talk shows ____.A. have become the only ones of its kindB. exploit the weaknesses in human natureC. appear at different times of the dayD. attract different people50. What is the advantage of the Jerry Springer show?A. The show exposes the dark sides of society.B. The show pours poisonous waste into society.C. Jerry sums up the whole idea of the show.D. Jerry talks abou the improvement of society.CCan people change their skin colour without suffering like pop king Michael Jackson? Perhaps yes. Scientists have found the gene that determines skin colour.The gene comes in two versions, one of which is found in 99 per cent of Europeans. The other is found in 93 to 100 per cent of Africans, researchers at Pennsylvania State University report in the latest issue of Science.Scientists have changed the colour of a dark-striped zebrafish to uniform gold by inserting a version of the pigment(色素) gene into a young fish. As with humans, zebrafish skin colour is determined by pigment cells, which contain melanosomes(黑色素). The number, size and darkness of melanosomes per pigment cell determines skin colour.It appears that, like the golden zebrafish, light-skinned Europeans also have a mutation(变异) in the gene for melanosome production. This results in less pigmented skin.However, Keith Cheng, leader of the research team, points out that the mutation is different in human and zebrafish genes.Humans acquired dark skin in Africa about 1.5 million years ago to protect bodies from ultra-violet rays of the sun(太阳光紫外线), which can cause skin cancer.But when modern humans leave Africa to live in northern latitudes, they need more sunlight on their skin to produce vitamin D. So the related gene changes, according to Cheng.Asians have the same version of the gene as Africans, so they probably acquired their light skin through the action of some other gene that affects skin colour, saidCheng.The new discovery could lead to medical treatments for skin cancer. It also could lead to research into ways to change skin colour without damaging it like chemical treatment did on Michael Jackson.51. The passage mainly tells us that ________.A. people can not change their skin colour without any painB. the new discovery could lead to search into ways to change skin colour safelyC. pop king Michael Jackson often changed his skin colour as he likedD. scientists have found out that people’s skin colour is determined by the gene52. It can be inferred from the passage that ________.A. nowadays people who want to change their skin colour have to suffer a lot fromthe damage caused by the chemical treatmentB. Europeans and Africans have the same geneC. the new discovery could help to find medical treatments for skin cancerD. there are two kinds of genes53. Scientists have done an experiment on a dark-striped zebra fish in order to ________.A. find the different genes of humans’B. prove the human s’ skin colour is determined by the pigment geneC. find out the reason why the African s’ skin colour is darkD. find out the ways of changing peopl’s skin colour54. The reason why Europeans are light-skinned is probably that ________.A. they are born light-skinned peopleB. light-skinned Europeans have mutation in the gen for melanosome productionC. they have fewer activities outsideD. they pay much attention to protecting their skin55.

They may lead some persons to have an28 high opinion of their own worth, while making things 29 for others who are equally deserving. Further, by giving too much influence to persons who are not ready to receive it, and by preventing hidden talent from being 30 , they can harm organizations as well as individuals.

Dale became fearful of going anywhere alone or of being alone as some of his seizures^ 作)were quite severe, even putting him in the hospital on three separate occasions.We decided that a trained medical service dog would greatly help Dale. It would be a companion for Dale, and the dog would be trained to stay with him. If he had a seizure, with a service dog beside a downed person, others could see and will be more likely to help.A local person sold us a black Labrador puppy at a reduced price. Nevaeh was eight weeks old when we got her. At that point, we turned to the local papers for help. We hoped that getting Dale story out would help raise funds to pay for the puppy e ha s treeningn Dalability, and hisneed to have someone with him at all times means I can not work either. We don ' t have money left over at the end of the month.Fundraising started off with the help of family donations, but we had a long way to go. Then one day there was a knock at the door. I went to answer it;a stranger stood there holding the newspaper article about Dale in her hand. She introduced herself as June and told me that her daughter ' s dog had warned her of a cancer she never kn e warh, probably saving her life. Now, she felt obliged to help our dog because a dog had helped her. She shocked us when she gave us $100! We never expected such caring and kindness from a complete stranger.Dale had been feeling the world didn ' thtis^ptrehewed his faith. The next thing thathappened was that Dale emailed local vets, asking for care for our puppy. We received a response from Dr. Noonan, who has since provided Nevaeh ' s care for free. The staff and the vet are the mo; loving, caring people we have met. They even helped us find a local trainer who cut the training costs by more than half. If it weren ' t for such amazing people, Dale probably would have becom total recluse, feeling he could never go anywhere alone.41. Why did the couple think a medical service dog would be of great help?A. It could accompany Dale, and when a seizure came, it could attract people to help.B. It could accompany Dale, and in a seizure, it could save Dale.C. People are more likely to save a person if he is a dog lover.D. Dale would not be so lonely, and would get well again soon.42. What made Dale gain confidence again?A. Getting a service dog.B. A lady offered an amount of money to him.C. The vets offered to help.D. His being able to go anywhere.43. Why did the couple think the staff and the vet are the most loving, caring people they have met?A. They provided the puppy ' s care for free.B. They trained the puppy for the couple.C. They provided the puppy ' s care for free and cut the trastiby calf.D. They not only provided the puppy ' s care for free but also found a trainer with less than halfthe cost.44. What does the underlined sentence “She felt obliged to help …” mean?A. She felt it a duty to help.B. She felt she was forced to help.C. She felt willing to help.D. She felt grateful to help.45. What is the purpose of writing this passage?A. To show how important a good service dog is.B. To show a united family is important.C. To show thanks to those kind people.D. To encourage people not to give up.BForgiving someone who has hurt you or let you down is never an easy thing. Several new studies, however, say that it could have a lot of health benefits. When you think of forgiveness, you probably don ' t think ofsitbeing a health or medical problem. Studies from Stanford University, on the other hand, show that something like anger can change your well-being.When cartoon book characters like the Incredible Hulk get angry, they change colours and often gain special power. In the real world, anger is less obvious and may be more dangerous. That' s why Professor Fred Luskin, founder of the Stanford Forgiveness Project and author of Forgive for Good, says holding on to anger and hatred can harm your physical and mental health. Two new studies seem to show the same idea.The studies find that people who are able to forgive feel less stress, less back pain, and less depression. They also have fewer headaches, lower blood pressure, and fewer problems on sleeping.So it doesn' t matter if your anger is caused by the traffic or other things. Learning to let it go is important. Techniques such as deep breath or thought can help. Or just ask yourself if it hurting yourself by staying angry with someone else.Forgivenessdoes not mean that you simply accept what happened and say it ' s OK. Inste;a way of making peace with yourself about what happened in the past.46. The author of the passage tries to make his viewpoint clear.A. by raising his own examples.B. based on his own experience.C. by mentioning some studies.D. by mentioning some typical patients.47. The example of the cartoon book characters is taken in the passage to.A. support the viewpoint that anger and hatred harm physical and mental health.B. introduce a famous expert.C. let the reader know the different colours of cartoon faces.D. show how to control one ' s temper.48. The underlined phrase holding 'bn to” in this passage possibly means “” .A. removing.B. keeping up.C. getting rid of.D. learning about.49. Which of the following is NOT mentioned in this passage?A. People who are able to forgive feel less stress.B. People who are able to forgive feel less depression.C. People who are able to forgive have fewer problems on sleeping.D. People who are able to forgive feel less tired.50. The best title for this passage is probably.A. Forgiveness.B. Forgiveness Is Good for Health.C. A Secret to Keeping Health.D. Anger Is Bad for Health.CIf women are mercilessly exploited俸U 肖U) year after year, they have only themselves to blame.Because they tremble at the thought of being seen in public in clothes that are out of fashion, theyare always taken advantage of by the designers and the big stores. Clothes which have been worn only a few times have to be put aside because of the change of fashion. When you come to think of it, only a woman is capable of standing in front of a wardrobe packed full of clothes and announcing sadly that she has nothing to wear.Changing fashions are nothing more than the intentional creation of waste. Many women spend vast sums of money each year to replace clothes that have hardly been worn. Women who cannot afford to throw away clothing in this way, waste hours of their time altering the dresses they have. Skirts are lengthened or shortened; necklines are lowered or raised, and so on.No one can claim that the fashion industry contributes anything really important to society. Fashion designers are rarely concerned with vital things like warmth, comfort and durability^寸用). They are only interested in outward appearance and they take advantage of the fact that women will put up with any amount of discomfort, as long as they look right. There can hardly be a man who hasn' t at some time in his life smiled at the sight ofwoman shaking in a thin dress on a winter day, or delicately picking her way through deep snow in high-heeled shoes.When comparing men and women in the matter of fashion, the conclusions to be drawn are obvious. Do the constantly changing fashions of wmen' s clothes, one wonders, reflect basic qualities of instability(不稳定)? Men are too clever to let themselves be cheated by fashion designers.

周测5第一节完形填空(共15小题:每小题2分,满分30分)People think children should play sports. Sports are fun, and children keep healthy while playing with others. However, playing sports can have 1 effects on children. It may produce feelings of poor self-respect or aggressive behavior in some children. According to research on kids and sports, 40,000,000 kids play sports in the US. Of these, 18,000,000 say they have been 2 at or called names while playing sports. This leaves many children with a bad 3 of sports. They think sports are just too aggressive.Many researchers believe adults, especially parents and coaches, are the main 4 of too much aggression in children’s sports. They believe children 5 aggressive adult behavior. This behavior is then further strengthened through both positive and negative feedback. Parents and coaches are powerful teachers because children usually look up to them. Often these adults behave aggressively themselves, sending children the message that 6 is everything.

In my free time, I really like surfing the Internet. When I get home from work, I turn on my computer, wait 16 it boots up completely, and then I go online. I usually check my email first and then write a few messages 17 family and friends. I sometimes scan the local news headlines at 18 favorite news Website and read up on the latest local and international news. This Website often provides video news clips 19 you can view online. I sometimes order products or service online to save money and time instead of going to a store and 20 (buy) what I'm looking for. For example, I 21 (order)a digital camera online the other day and saved about $50. Whatever I do, I realize that there are problems 22 using the Internet including scams, identify theft, and viruses, so I'm very careful not to give out my 23 (person) information.

Using the Internet can be fun and 24 convenient way of shopping and finding out new information, 25 you just need to be careful第三节阅读理解(共两部分,每部分5小题,每小题2分,满分20分)AEverywhere man is altering the balance of nature.He is facilitating the spread of plants and animals into new regions, sometimes deliberately, sometimes unconsciously.He is covering huge areas with new kinds of plants, or with houses, factories, slag-heaps and other products of his civilization.He exterminates some species on a large scale, but favors the multiplication of others.In brief, he has done more in five thousand years to alter the biological aspect of the planet than has nature in five million.Many of these changes which he has brought about have had unforeseen consequences.Who would have thought that the throwing away of a piece of Canadian waterweed would have caused half the waterways of Britain to be blocked for a decade, or that the provision of pot cacti for lonely settlers’ wives would have led to Eastern Australian being overrun with forests of Prickly Pear? Who would have prophesied that the cutting down of forests on the Adriatic coasts, or in parts of Central Africa, could have reduced the land to a semi desert, with the very soil washed away from the bare rock? Who would have thought that improved communications would have changed history by the spreading of disease-sleeping sickness into East Africa, measles into Oceania, very possibly malaria into ancient Greece?These are spectacular examples; but examples on a smaller scale are everywhere to be found.We make a nature sanctuary for rare birds, prescribing absolute security for all species; and we may find that some common and hardy kind of bird multiplies beyond measure and ousts the rare kinds in which we were particularly interested.We see, owing to some little change brought about by civilization, the starling spread over the English country-side in hordes.We improve the yielding capacities of our cattle; and find that now they exhaust the pastures which sufficed for less exigent stock.26.The following examples except _______________ reflect man altering the balance of nature.A.man is covering huge areas with new kinds of plantsB.man is facilitating the spread of animals into new regions.C.man is killing some species on a large scaleD.man is getting to know the importance of keeping the balance of nature.27.What had a piece of Canadian waterweed cause?A.Eastern Australian was overrun with forests.B.Half the waterways of Britain blocked for a decade.C.In parts of central Africa, the land reduced to a semi desert.D.Disease-sleeping has been caused.28.What have spread diseases?A.Disease-sleeping sickness.B.Measles.C.Improved communications.D.Malaria.29.We make a nature sanctuary for rare birds but _______________.A.some common and hardy kind of bird multipliesB.rare kinds multiplyC.all bird multiplyD.no bird multiply30.The main idea of the passage is ______________.A.that man is deliberately destroying the balance of natureB.that man has foreseen the consequences of altering the balance old natureC.that improved communications have changed historyD.that man is altering the balance of natureBThe British National Health Service (NHS) was set up in 1948 and was designed to provide equal basic health care, free of charge, for everybody in the country. Before this time health care had to be paid for by individuals.Nowadays central government is directly responsible for the NHS although it is administered by local health authorities. About 83 percent of the cost of the health service is paid for by general taxation and the rest is met from the National Insurance contributions paid by those in work. There are charges for prescription and dental care but many people, such as children, pregnant women, prisoners, and those on Income Support, are exempt from payment.Most people are registered with a local doctor (a GP, or General Practitioner) who is increasingly likely to be part of a health centre which serves the community.As the population of Britain gets older, the hospital service now treats more patients than before, although patients spend less time in hospital. NHS hospitals—many of which were built in the nineteenth century — provide nearly half a million beds and have over 480, 000 medical staff.The NHS is the biggest employer in Europe although Britain actually spends less per person on health care than most of her European neighbours.During the 1980s there was considerable restructuring of the Health Service with an increased emphasis on managerial efficiency and the privatization of some services (for example, cleaning). At the end of the 1980s the government introduced proposals for further reform of the NHS, including allowing some hospitals to be self-governing, and encouraging GPs to compete for patients. Patients would be able to choose and change their family doctor more easily and GPs would have more financial responsibility. The political questions continue of how much money should be provided to support the NHS and where it should come from.31. We can know from the first paragraph that ______________.A. the original aim of the NHS was to provide equal basic health care for everybodyB. people didn’t have to pay for health care since the NHS was set upC. patients were charged for receiving health care before 1948D. the NHS was an organization which gave free advice to villagers32. What do we know about the NHS?A. It’s managed by the central government.B. Its cost is mainly paid for by the National Insurance contributions.C. It hires more people than any other unit in Europe.D. Fewer patients go to its hospitals than before because they spend less on health care.33. All the following statements about GPs are true except that they ____________.A. take care of the local people’s healthB. often take part in competitions to see who is the bestC. work under high pressure nowadaysD. have more responsibilities than before34. What does the underlined word “exempt” probably mean?A. sufferingB. differentC. preventedD. free35. The biggest problem for the NHS is ______________.A. many hospitals are too old to be usedB. some services are in the charge of individualsC. more and more patients go to GPs for treatmentD. there is not enough money for further reform【答案与解析】41~45 DBCAD本篇文章主要讲的是人类正改变着自然界的平衡。
