And that (1) does exist today. My wife and I lectured about this looming danger twenty years ago. What was less (2) then, however, were the new, positive (3) that work against the digital divide. (4) , there are reasons to be (5) .There are technological reasons to hope the digital divide will narrow. As the Internet becomes more and more (6) , it is in the interest of business to universalize access—after all, the more people online, the more potential (7) there are. More and more (8) , afraid their countries will be left (9) , want to spread Internet access. Within the next decade or two, one to two billion people on the planet will be (10) together. As a result, I now believe the digital dividewill (11) rather than widen in the years ahead. And that is very good news because the Internet may well be the most powerful tool for (12) world poverty that we’ve ever had.Of course, the use of the Internet isn’t the only way to(13) poverty. And the Internet is not the only tool we have. But it has (14) potential.To (15) advantage of this tool, some poor countries will have to get over their outdated anti-colonial prejudices (16) respect to foreign investment. Countries that still think foreign investment is a/an (17) of their sovereignty(主权)might well study the history of infrastructure (the basic structural foundations of a society) in the United States. When the United States (18) its industrial infrastructure, it didn’t have the capital to do so. And that is(19) America’s Second Wave infrastructure—(20) roads, harbors, highways, ports and so on—were built with foreign investment.1. A. divide B. informationC. worldD. lecture2.

With it men can discover all kinds of useful minerals. Geology studies the earth. But of the three spheres, the atmosphere, the hydrosphere and the lithosphere, it only directly studies the lithosphere. It studies the composition and distribution of material in the earth’s crust. It studies also the formation, changes and development of rocks and minerals in the earth’s crust.Geology is a very complex science. There are many branches in geology. Mineralogy is the science of the minerals. Petrology is the science of the rocks. Geomorphology deals with origin of landscapes and changes in them. Historical geology traces the evolution and development of the earth and of the animals and plants on it. Stratigraphy studies the sequence of the rocks in the earth’s crust. Paleontology deals with the ancient animals and plants. These are just a few of the most important branches ofgeology.Geology is a very important science. We depend upon geology for the discovery of mineral deposits needed by the various industries. A lot of minerals are used as fuel and raw materials. Without them industrialization is impossible. Minerals are also used as fertilizers in agriculture. China is very rich in mineral deposits of all kinds. The study of geology will help us to discover them.Petroleum occurs widely in the earth as gas, liquid, semisolid, or solid, or in more than one of these states at a single place. Chemically any petroleum is an extremely complex mixture of hydrocarbon (hydrogen and carbon) compounds, with minor amounts of nitrogen, oxygen, and sulfur as impurities. Liquid petroleum, which is called crude oil to distinguish it from refined oil, is the most important commercially. It consists chiefly of the liquid hydrocarbons, with varying amounts of dissolved gases, bitumens, and impurities.Petroleum gas, commonly called natural gas to distinguish it from manufactured gas, consists of the lighter paraffin hydrocarbons, of which the most abundant is methane gas (CH4). The semisolid and solid forms of petroleum consist of the heavy hydrocarbons and bitumens.Geology plays an important role in the search for oil and natural gas. Four prerequisites are necessary for oil (and gas) to accumulate in commercial quantities in an area: (1) The oil originates in a source bed, and a marine shale, once a black mud rich in organic compounds, isthought to be a common source rock. (2) The oil then migrates to a permeable reservoir rock, and to do this it may travel for long distances both vertically and horizontally. Oilcannot move through the tiny openings of the shale source beds rapidly enough to be extracted profitably. (3) A nonpermeable layer must occur above a reservoir bed. Since oil is lighter than water, it tends to move upward through openings and cracks until it encounters impervious beds that it cannot penetrate. The oil may then accumulate beneath the impervious layers. Some gas occurs in solution within the oil, and if enough is present it separates out to occupy the uppermost region of such a trap. (4) A favorable structure must exist to concentrate the oil and anticlines, salt plugs, and faults are common examples. A fault zone may itself be impervious, or faulting may have shifted an impervious bed so that it now blocks a reservoir bed. Stratigraphic traps tend to be more difficult to locate and may form where tilted reservoir beds are overlain unconformably by impervious layers or where the reservoir beds become thinner up-dip and wedge out within enclosing impervious beds. Thus oil that was once distributed in sparse amounts throughout a very large volume of rock may now be richly concentrated within the uppermost portions of favorable reservoir rocks.The task of the geologist is the location of promising structures in regions where rocks are favorable for the occurrence of the other prerequisites. Drilling a hole is then the only known method of determining whether or not oil is present in the structure.1. What is mainly dealt with in the passage?A. The formation of oil.B. The formation of rocks.C. The general introduction of geology.D. The roles of geology in finding oil.2. Geology is a natural science and it does NOT study______.A. the minerals in the earth’s crustB. the rocks in the earth’s crustC. the evolution and development of the earthD. the origin of the atmosphere surrounding the earth3. One prerequisite for oil to accumulate in quantity is that the oil originates in ______.A. a source rockB. a black mudC. the seawaterD. organic compounds4. In the formation of oil, a nonpermeable layer above a reservoir bed is necessary because it can ______.A. accelerate the travel speed of the oilB. hinder the oil to move upwardC. help the oil to move upwardD. help people to discover the oil5. Which of the following statements is TRUE?A. Drilling a hole is one of the known methods of determining whether or not oil is present inthe structure.B. A geologist usually tries to locate promising structures in regions where rocks are favorablefor the occurrence of the other prerequisites.C. An unfavorable structure must exist to concentrate the oil.D. A permeable layer must occur above a reservoir bed.CDABB2Australia has a lot of lovely animals. You cannot find them anywhere else in the world. The most famous ones are kangaroos (袋鼠)and koalas(树袋熊).The kangaroo is the symbol of Australia. They have large eyes and ears. They don’t walk, they jump. They use their strong back legs. They can jump at 74 kilometres per hour. They can go over nine metres in one jump.Kangaroo mothers have pouches to carry their babies. The babies stay inside to get milk and keep warm.Kangaroos are everywhere in Australia. They are on TV, in books and in the shops. But do you know that millions of kangaroos are killed every year ? There are too many of them.There are about 20 to 25 million kangaroos in Australia. That’s more than the number of people in the country.Some kangaroos go hungry because there is not enough food to eat. They break into farms for food. Farmers are very angry with them.The koala is another famous Australian animal. They look like bears, and have small eyes and big noses. They eat leaves from gum trees(桉树).Koalas have a special smell. They use it to mark their home—“ This is my place, you can’t come in !” Like kangaroos, a koala baby lives in its mother’s pouch, too.6. If we want to see kangaroos and koalas in natural forests, we can go to ________ .A. ChinaB. FranceC. Australia7. What does a kangaroo look like?A. It looks like a bear.B. It has big eyes and ears.C.It has small eyes and big noses.8. The word “ pouch ” means ________ .A. 育儿袋B. 肌肉C. 尾巴9. Which is NOT TRUE? ________A. The kangaroos can go over nine metres in one jump.B. Koalas like eating leaves from gum trees.C. Koalas use their voices to mark their homes.10. What’s the best title of this passage?__________ .A. Kangaroos and koalasB. Beautiful AustraliaC.How to protect kangaroos and koalas CBACA3The Internet seems to have just arrived, so how can we possibly imagine what will replace it? In truth, early versions of the Net have been around since the 1960s and 70s, but only after the mid-1990s did it begin to have a serious public impact. Since 1994, the population of users has grown from about 13 million to more than 300 million around the world.What will the Internet be like 20 years from now?Like the rest of infrastructure, the Internet will eventually seem to disappear by becoming widespread. Most access will probably be via high-speed, low-power radio links. Most handheld, fixed and mobile appliances will be Internet enabled. This trend is already discernible in the form of Internet-enabled cell phones and personal digital assistants. Like the servants of centuries past, our household helpers will chatter with one another and with the outside help.So many appliances, vehicles and buildings will be online by 2020 that it seems likely there will be more things on the Internet than people. Internet-enabled cars and airplanes are coming online, and smart houses are being built every day. Eventually, programmable devices will become so cheap that we will embedthem in the cardboard boxes into which we put other things for storage or shipping. These passive “computers” will be activated as they pass sensors and will be able to both emit and absorb information. Such innovations will facilitate increasingly automatic manufacturing, inventory control, shipping and distribution. Checkout at the grocery store will be fully automatic, as will payment via your digital wallet.The advent of programmable, mini-scale machines will extend the Internet to things with the size of molecules that can be injected under the skin, leading to Internet-enabled people. Such devices, together with Internet-enabled sensors embedded in clothing, will avoid a hospital stay for medical patients who would otherwise be there only for observation. The speech processor used today in cochlear implants for the hearing impaired could easily be connected to the Internet; listening to Internet radio could soon be a direct computer-to-brain experience!The Internet will undergo substantial alteration as optical technologies allow the transmission of many trillions of bits per second on each Internet’s fiber-optic backbone network. The core of the network will remain optical, and the edges will use a mix of access technologies, ranging from radio and infrared to optical fiber and the old twisted-pair copper telephone lines.By then, the Internet will have been extended, by means of an interplanetary Internet backbone, to operate in outer space.How will this pervasive Intern et access affect our daily lives? More and more of the world’s information will be accessible instantly and from virtually anywhere. In an emergency, our health records will be available for remote medical consultation with specialists and perhaps even remote surgery. More andmore devices will have access to the global positioning system, increasing the value of geographically indexed databases. Using GPS with speech-understanding software that is emerging today, we will be able to get directions from our Internet as easily as we once got them at a filling station.Is there any downside to a society suffused with information and the tools to process it?Privacy will come at a premium. Enormous quantities of data about our daily affairs will flow across the Internet, working to make our lives easier. Despite our preference for giving up privacy in exchange for convenience, our experiences online may make us yearn for the anonymity of the past. Who should have access to our medical records and our financial information, and how will that access be controlled? Will we be able to search and use the vast information stored onlinewithout leaving trails across the Net? How will business transactions be taxed, and in what jurisdictions will disputed electronic transactions be resolved? How will intellectual property be protected? How will we prove that contracts were signed on a certain date, or that their terms and conditions have not been electronically altered? There are technical answers for many of these questions, but some will require international agreements before they can be resolved.Perhaps even more daunting, in the face of Internet-wide virus attacks, is the realization that we will depend in larger and larger measure on the network’s functioning re liably. Making this system of millions of networks robust is a challenge for the present generation of Internet engineers. But I am an optimist and believe we are going to live in a world abundant with information and with the tools needed to use it wisely.11.

China, Italy, France, India, and Japan are just some of the countries with famous national cuisines. In the past, people had to travel great distances in order to sample foods from other countries. Today, it has never been easier to try food from a different country every day.One of the most popular foods around the world is pizza. Though pizza has historical and cultural ties to Italy, many different types of pizza have developed outside of Italy and several have been adopted as signature dishes of the respective region.Pizza first appeared in Italy as a type of flat bread that was inexpensive and easy to make. By the 18th century, residents around Naples in southern Italy were famous for their baked flat breads covered in tomato sauce. To this day, people still travel to Naples to sample pizza in its birthplace and Neapolitans (residents of Naples) are proud of this heritage. Indeed, the city continues to be famous for its delicious pizza.One of the first (and still most popular) varieties of pizza is called the Margherita, named after Queen Margherita of Savoy. This variety was her favourite because the colours of the ingredients matched the Italian flag — red (tomatoes), white (mozzarella cheese), and green (basil leaves). With increased trade, travel, and immigration throughout the 18th and 19th centuries, cultural traditions and cuisines spread around the world. Today, pizza is very popular in many countries, including the United States. New Y ork City and Chicago are particularly famous for their unique styles of pizza. Pizzas today are also available with nearly every topping imaginable: mushrooms, peppers, sausage, pineapple, and anchovies, to name only a few. If you can think of it, chances are that someone's already tried putting it on a pizza!41. Which of the following best describes "signature dishes" (Para. 2, Line 3)? AA. Most famous food.B.

It was the first pizza she ever ate.C. It was the most popular pizza in Italy.D. It was her favourite type of pizza.43. Which of the following is NOT a cause for the spread of cultural traditions? CA. Immigration.B. Trade.C. Cuisine.D. Travel.44. What can you infer was probably the first topping ever put on a pizza? BA. Mushrooms.B. Tomato sauce.C. Mozzarella cheese.D. Sausage.45. According to the passage, which of the following is NOT one of the most famous varieties of pizza? CA. Neapolitan pizza.B. Chicago deep-dish pizza.C. France-style pan pizza.D.

After buying .some magazines to read on the journey, I made my way to the luggage office to collect the heavy suitcase. I had left three days before. There were only a few people waiting, and I took out my wallet to find the receipt for my case. The receipt did not seem to be where I had left it. I emptied the contents of the wallet, and railway tickets, money, scraps of paper, and photographs tumbled out of it; but no matter how hard I searched, the receipt was nowhere to be found.When my turn came, I explained the situation sorrowfully to the assistant. The man looked at me suspiciously as if to say that he had heard this type of story many times and asked me to describe the case, I told him that it was an old, brown — looking object no different from the many cases I could see on the shelves. The assistant then gave me a form and told me to make a list of the chief contents of the case. If they were correct, he said, I could take the case away. I tried to remember all the articles I had hurriedly packed and wrote them down as they came to me.After I had done this, I went to look among the shelves. There were hundreds of cases there and for one dreadful moment, it occurred to me that if someone had picked the receipt up, he could have easily claimed the case already. This had not happened fortunately, for after a time, I found the case lying on its side high up in a comer. After examining the articles inside, the assistant was .soon satisfied that it was mine and told me I could take the case away. Again I took out my wallet: this time to pay. I pulled out a ten— shilling note and the "lost" receipt slipped out with it. I could not help blushing and glanced up at the assistant. He was nodding his head knowingly, as if to say that he had often seen this happen before too!1. The writer needed the receipt ____.A. to claim his suitcaseB. to pay at the luggage officeC. to prove that he had paid at the luggage officeD. to prove that he had bought the suitcase2. The writer felt foolish because ____.A. he couldn't find his receiptB. he hadn't really lost his receipt at allC. he had to fill in a formD. the assistant was laughing at him3. There weren't ______ people waiting at the luggage office.A. very muchB. a lotC. lotsD. very many4. 'situation' means .A. incidentB. eventC. placeD. position5. ' wrote them down ' means ____.A. copied themB. made a note of themC. signed themD. pointed at themPassage2The word conservation has a thrifty meaning. To conserve is to save and protect, to leave what we ourselves enjoy in such good condition that others may also share the enjoyment.Our forefathers had no idea that human population would increase faster than the supplies of raw materials: most of them, even until very recently, had the foolish idea that the treasures were "limitless" and "inexhaustible". Most of the citizens of earlier generations knew little or nothing about the complicated and delicate system that runs all through nature, and which means that, as in a living body, an unhealthy condition of one part will sooner or later be harmful to all the othersFifty years ago, nature study was not part of the school work; scientific forestry was a new idea; timber was still cheap because it could be brought in any quantity from distant woodlands; soil destruction and river floods were not national problems; nobody had yet studied long— term climatic cycles in relation to proper land use; even the word "conservation "had nothing of the meaning that it has for us today.For the sake of ourselves and those who will come after us, we must now set about repairing the mistakes of our forefathers. Conservation should, therefore, be made a part of everyone's daily life. To know about the water table (地下⽔位) in the ground is just as important to us as a knowledge of the basic arithmetic formulas. We need to know why all watersheds need the protection of plant life and why the running current of streams and rivers must be made to yield their full benefit to the soil before they finally escape to the sea. We need to be taught the duty of planting trees as well as of cutting them. We need to know the importance of big, mature trees, because living space for most of man's fellow creatures on this planet is figured not only in square measure of surface but also in cubic volume above the earth. In brief, it should be our goal to restore as much of the original beauty of nature as we can.6. The author's altitude towards current situation in the exploitation of natural resources isA. criticalB. neutralC. positiveD. suspicious7. According to the author, the greatest mistake of our forefathers was that _____A. they had no idea about scientific forestryB. they were not aware of the significance of nature studyC. they had little or no sense of environmental protectionD. they had no idea of how to make good use of raw materials8. It can be inferred from the third paragraph that earlier generations didn't realizeA. the importance of the proper use of landB. the value of the beauty of natureC. the harmfulness of soil destruction and river floodsD. the interdependence of water, soil, and living things9. To avoid the mistakes of our forefathers, the author suggests that ______.A. we plant more treesB. we return to natureC. natural sciences be taught to everybodyD. environmental education be directed toward everyone10. What does the author imply by saying "living space ''is figured ''also in cubic volume above the earth" ? ( para.3 )A. We need to take some measures to protect spaceB. Our living space should measured in cubic volumeC. Our living space on the earth is getting smaller and smallerD. We must preserve good living conditions for both birds and animalsⅣ Translate the following phrases(翻译下列短语:汉语译成英语;英语译成汉语。

Y ou’d better try your best to speak. Don’t be afraid of making mistakes. While you are doing this, a good exercise is to write-keep a diary, write notes or letter and so on. Many mistakes in your speaking will be easilyfound when you write. Through correcting the mistakes, you can do better in learning a language.If you are slow in speaking, don’t worry. One of the helpful ways is to improve your English by reading, either aloud or low to yourself. The important thing is to choose something interesting to read. It mustn’t be too difficult for you. When you are reading in this way, don’t stop to look up the words if you can guess their meanings or if they are not important to the sentence. Y ou can do that some other time.31.

The child’s body was not found for three hours. Two of the rescuers, Liu Ye and Hao Longbiao, also died of cold and exhaustion.The body of Hao who took the lead in jumping into the lake was not found until the next day.A student who was unwilling to tell his name said he and his classmates from the local college were taking photos at the lake. When they heard the children’s cries for help, they went to the ice hole hand in hand to rescue the children. But the ice kept breaking, causing most of them to fall into icy water.Local residents held mourning ceremonies at the lake.Eight of the students were seriously affected by the freezing water and were being kept in hospital for further observation, but their lives were no longer in danger.36. The underlined word “occurred” here means “__________”.A. employedB. mixedC. guidedD. happened37. When the three students fell into water, the university students were __________.A. skating on the iceB. taking photos at the lakeC. having a picnicD. walking along the lake38. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?A. Three students died on the same day in all.B. Hao Longbiao’s body was found on December 14, 2002.C. The university students didn’t think it dangerous to save the drowning children in the lake.D. Local residents were not brave in face of danger.39. It can be inferred that __________.A. people think little of the two university students’ deathB. the ice on the lake wasn’t strong enough to skate onC. some students regretted for what they had doneD. heroes don’t agree with the steps of modern times40. The author wrote the passage to __________.A. warn people of the danger of skating on iceB. call on people to learn from the brave university studentsC. tell us a tragedyD. advise university students to cherish their livesPassage 3The advantages and disadvantages of a large population have long been a subject of discussion among economists. It has been argued that the supply of good land is limited. To feed a large population, inferior land must be cultivated and the good land worked intensively. Thus, each person produces less and this means a lower average income than could be obtained with a smaller population. Other economists have argued that a large population gives more scope for specialization and the development of facilities such as ports, roads and railways, which are not likely to be built unless there is a big demand to justify them.One of the difficulties in carrying out a world-wide birth control program lies in the fact that official attitudes to population growth vary from country to country depending on the level of industrial development and the availability of food and raw materials. In the developing country where a vastly expanded population is pressing hard upon the limits of food, space and natural resources, it will be the first concern of government to place a limit on the birthrate, whatever the consequences may be. In the highly industrialized society the problem may be more complex. A decreasing birthrate may lead to unemployment because it results in a declining market for manufactured good. When the pressure of population on housing declines, prices also decline and the building industry is weakened. Faced with considerations such as these, the government of a developed country may well prefer to see a slowly increasing population, rather than one which is stable or in decline.41. A small population may mean __________.A. higher productivity, but a lower average incomeB. lower productivity, but a higher average incomeC. lower productivity, and a lower average incomeD. higher productivity, and a higher average income42. According to the passage, a large population will provide a chance for developing __________.A. agricultureB. transport systemC. industryD. national economy43. In a developed country, people will perhaps go out of work if the birthrate__________.A. goes upB. is decreasingC. remains stableD. is out of control44. According to the passage slowly rising birthrate perhaps is good for __________.A. a developing nationB. a developed nationC. every nation with a big populationD. every nation with a small nation45. It is no easy job to carry out a general plan for birth control throughout the world because __________.A. there too many underdeveloped countries in the worldB. underdeveloped countries have low level of industrial developmentC. different governments have different views of the questionD. even developed countries may have complex problemsIV.

Reading comprehensionPassage OneThe causes that lead to conditions likely for crime and fights are stronger in urban communities than in country ones. As you know, urban life is more crowded and separate, and almost few people get to know the other people's existence in the city. And it often sets the individual free from the limitations (局限) of city life than the tradition-centered societies did. But more freedom from limitations and controls also gives the people greater freedom to get away from it. And living in the colder, well organized urban area means that ruling orders of action are often guided by the departments far away. The police are strangers carrying out these orders, at worst, a different community and, at best, a same set of subjects. Minor offences in a small town or village are often dealt with without the usage of official police action. As doubtful as such action may seem to be, it results in fewer recorded breaking of the law as compared to the city, however. Although perhaps causing some decision difficulties for the police in small towns, normal and smooth law making is not always acceptable to villagers.Urban areas with more population, greater wealth, more commercial establishments(设施), and more products of our technology also provide more opportunities for stealing. The people are independent, their money is insured, well-made goods in a large number are beautifully exhibited and easier to carry.1. The passage mainly tells us that .A) being known to the neighbors increases the danger of being attackedB) there are more crime rates in the urban area than in the country areaC) small villages have more minor crimes than urban centersD) there is no way to prevent urban crimes from happening2. What was the traditional society like?A) It provided too much freedom of personal movement and travel.B) It provided less freedom for the individual in many situations.C) The technology was not fully used in the traditional society.D) A lot of old traditions passed on to modern society.3. The phrase "minor offenses" (Line 9, Para.1) refers to offenses likeA) theft B) robbery C) bribery D) murder4. According to the passage, the crime rate in small villages is .A) higher than that of urban centers B) lower than that of urban centersC) the same as that of urban centers D) now being reduced5. Which of the following does NOT lead to the high crime rate in urban areas?A) Store window exhibits. B) High level of living.C) Fewer police departments. D) Large population.Passage TwoWho talks more,women or men? The seemingly conflicting evidence is resolved by the difference between what I call public and private speaking. More men feel comfortable doing "public speaking" while more women feel comfortable doing "private" speaking.Another way of capturing these differences is by using the terms report-talk and rapport-talk. For most women, the language of conversation is primarily a language of rapport: a way of establishing connections and negotiating relationships. Emphasis is placed on displaying similarities and matching experiences. From childhood, girls criticize their friends who try to stand out or appear better than others. People feel their closest connections at home, or in places where they feel at home -- with one or a few people they feel close to and comfortable with -- in other words, during private speaking. But even the most public situations can be approached like private speaking.For most women, talk is primarily a means to preserve independence and negotiate and maintain status in a hierarchical(等级制度的) social order. This is done by exhibiting knowledge and skill, and by ho1ding center stage through verbal performance such as storytelling, joking, or conveying information. From childhood, men learn to use talking as a way to get and keep attention. Therefore, they are more comfortable speaking in 1arger groups made up of people they know 1ess well, in the broadest sense, "public speaking.” But even the most private situations ca n be approached like public speaking, more like giving a report than establishing rapport.6.A similar term for "private talking" is ___________.A. report-talkB. rapport-talkC. persuasive talkD. women's talk7.When women talk,they tend to________.A. admire their friends who stand outB. make others feel at homeC. approach public situations like private talkingD. seek close relationship with other speakers8. Men talk in order to________.A. make new friendsB. share experienceC. argue with othersD. attract attention9. The purpose of this passage is to _______.A. contrast the male and female talking stylesB. prove that men talk more effectively than womenC. analyze why men and women are differentD. draw people's attention to the difference between men and women10. Which of the following is true?A. Men talk more than women.B. Men feel more comfortable making a public speech than women.C. Men are more knowledgeable than women.D. Men are more independent than women.Passage ThreeLabor force is defined as being the total number of people who are available to work and earn income. This definition includes everyone who is employed or seeking paid employment, so it includes employers and the self—employed. Labor is one of the country's resources which can be combined with other resources to produce the goods and services wanted by the community. Although the size of the workforce depends a great deal on the size of the total population, there are several other influences which a1so affect it. The age distribution of the total population has a very marked effect on the available workforce. If the population has a high proportion of very young people or of those too o1d to work, then the available workforce would be lower than if there were an evenly spread age distribution. If the population naturally grows rapidly, i.e. the number of births greatly exceeds the number of deaths, then as a total population increases the proportion in the workforce declines.Sometimes a population is described as aging, which means that the birth rate is either falling or growing very slowly, and as people retire from the workforce there are insufficient numbers of young people entering it to replace those who are leaving it. The population is top-heavy(头重脚轻) with older people. So the percentage of the population in the workforce declines when there is either a rapid increase in births or a falling birth rate.The age distribution of the population has several important effects on the economy. If the population is aging and there is an increase in the number of people retiring without a corresponding increase in the number entering the workforce, this raises the problem of the ability of the economy to provide a reasonable 1evel of social services to the retired group. If the aged are to be cared for in special homes, finance must be avai1able for that purpose. If the size of the workforce is small relative to the total population, then the government tax revenue is relatively low and either the government has less money available to it or the workforce members have to be taxed more heavily.bor force is referred to as ____________A. people who are available to work and earn incomeB. self-employed people onlyC. only those who are looking for an employmentD. only the employers12.According to the passage, which of the following factors is NOT mentioned as an influence on the size of the workforce?A. The size of the population.B. The age distribution of the population.C. The national economy.D. The number of births and deaths.13.The conclusion which can be drawn safely from the second paragraph is that________.A. a population growth from natural increase leads to a greater proportion of the workforceB. a large population does not necessarily mean a higher proportion of workforceC. the larger the number of the aged in a population, the higher the proportion of the workforceD. if the population has an evenly spread age distribution, the workforce will be lower14.When a population is said to aging,____________.A. there are more people retiring than those entering the workforce.B. the birth rate must be growingC. there should be an oversupply of workforceD. young people outnumber old people15.The population which is top-heavy with older people exerts pressure on ________A. the employersB. the self-employedC. the young peopleD. the economy of the countryPassage Fore.The age of space science began less than thirty years ago. But already people have made great discoveries and have done exciting things. They have walked in space, visited the moon, and lived in space laboratories for long periods of time. Some scientists are now working on ways to make it possible for people to live on other planets. They are trying to solve problems of living in space, even though they don't yet know what all of the problems will be. For example, they don't yet know what problems people would have if they loved being weightless for several years.If you were a space traveler you might have to spend several months, or even years, in a spaceship. While you were in the ship you wouldn't live as you usually do. You might have to find new ways to spend your time. Your body would have to adjust to different conditions. And you would have some problems that you never think about here on Earth. For example, you would have to have a huge supply of food with you because you can't go to the supermarket when you're halfway to another planet. You also would need fresh water and a way to get rid of waste. In fact, there would be many problems to solve in order to live in space.16. According to the passage, which of the following is not true?A) if you were a space traveler, you had to live in a spaceship for some timeB) scientists have solved problems of living in spaceC) while you were in the ship you wouldn't live as you usually doD) scientists are finding ways to make people live on other planets17. The sentence "what problems people would have if they loved being weightless"(Line6- 7, Para. 1) is probably, closest in meaning to .A) people who were light had many problemsB) many people who loved to be very lightC) many problems people would face in spaceD) weightless people who loved to have problems18. The phrase "a huge supply of food" (Line 5, Para. 2) means .A) a large amount of foodB) a huge piece of foodC) the food that is largely supplied on the marketD) the food at the supermarket19. While you were in the spaceship, you would NOTA) need fresh water and a way to get rid of wasteB) have some unusual problemsC) go to the supermarket when you were halfway to another planetD) find new ways to spend your time20. It can be concluded from the passage that .A) life in space was interesting and excitingB) there would be many problems if you wanted to live in spaceC) if you were a space traveler, you had to stay in spaceD) it was easy to enjoy oneself in spacePassage FiveThe best example of how associations influence eating is that we often eat not because we're hungry but because it's "lunchtime," because foods smell good, or because our friends are eating.More evidence that associations influence eating comes from marketing and advertising pressures to sell foods by offering huge servings. For example, movie theatres offer an extra large box of popcorn(爆玉米花),which, at almost 900 calories, is equivalent to a major meal. Health professionals warn that as children, adolescents(青少年),and adults learn to prefer large portions and tasty foods high in fat, sugar, and calories, there has been a corresponding increase in rates of being overweight(from 25% in 1988 to 35% in 1998).Researchers are especially concerned about the continued rates of overweight and obesity(肥胖) in children since childhood obesity is very difficult to treat and an obese child has a high probability of becoming an obese adult with the associated health risks we discussed earlier.Health professionals suggest that to avoid future increases in rates of overweight and obesity, we need to try hard to forget many of our food associations, which primarily involves decreasing size of food portions, increasing levels of activity to burn off excess calories.21.The influence of food association can be seen clearly from the example that we often eat NOT because________.A. it's time for lunchB. we're hungryC. foods smell deliciousD. our friends are eating22.From the passage we can infer that the "serving" in the second paragraph most probably means________.A. an amount of foodB. a special serviceC. a mealD. some calories23.According to the author, because of an unhealthy food preference, the increase in rates of being overweight was _____________ during the ten years from 1988 to 1998.A. 10 per centB. 20 per centC. 30 per centD. 40 per cent24.According to the passage, an obese child is _____________.A. less at risk of heart diseasesB. healthily fatC. very hard to get along withD. more likely to become an obese adult25.In order to avoid future increases in rates of overweight and obesity, we need to do a11 the following EXCEPT _____________.A. make an effort to forget our food associationB. eat less foodC. do more exercise to consume excess caloriesD. eat more fruitPassage SixWeddings ceremonies in the United States vary as much as the people do. But many weddings, no matter where or how they are performed, include certain traditional customs. For instance, the bride and groom often exchange rings at the ceremony. The rings are usually worn on the fourth finger of the left hand, and are exchanged in the middle of the ceremony. Today, the ring shows the couple's love for one another.After the ceremony, the couple is often showered with handfuls of uncooked rice by friends and family. Rice, as we know, shows productivity and harvest. And then,there is often a party, where the food is so plentiful that it almost takes the attention away from the people. Soon the bride stands in the center of the room, often on a chair, and throws her flowers to the unmarried women at the party. Tradition says that whoever catches the flowers will be the next bride. Some women eagerly try to catch the flower; others shy away.And then it is time for the bride and groom to set off the tradition of a honeymoon, a trip after the wedding. The trip nowadays varies greatly by wealth, time and preference. Sometimes the couple will spend a single night at a nearby hotel; or they may spend two weeks at a faraway foreign city as well.26. According to the passage, .A) American wedding ceremonies are somewhat traditionalB) American wedding ceremonies provide a lot of flowersC) American wedding ceremonies are preferableD) American wedding ceremonies are magnificent27. According to the passage, what does the sentence "no matter where or how theyare performed" (line 2, Para.1 ) really mean?A) The wedding ceremonies may be held everywhere.B) The wedding ceremonies may be held at any time.C) The wedding ceremonies may be held in different ways and places.D) The wedding ceremonies may be held in any way.28. The word "'showered" (Line 1, Para. 2) probably means .A) dressed B) scattered C) provided D) touched29. From the passage, we can safely conclude that .A) American couples hold traditional wedding ceremoniesB) American couples hold fashionable wedding ceremoniesC) American couples go on expensive honeymoon tripsD) American couples exchange rings after the honeymoon30. Which of the following is the best title for this passage?A) Weddings in North America B) Weddings in AmericaC) Wedding Ceremonies D) Wedding Traditions1-5. BBABC 6-10.BCDAB 11-15.ACBAD16-20.

In the old days people used to train dogs to protect themselves against attacks from other beasts.And laterthey came to realize that a dog was not only useful for protection but willing to obey his master.For example, when people used dogs for hunting,the dog would not eat what was caught without permission.But now people in cities need not protect themselves against attacks of animals.Why do they keep dogs,then? Some people keep dogs to protect themselves from robbery. But the most important reason is for companionship.For a child,a dog is his best friend when he has no friends to play with.For young couples,a dog is their child when they have no children.For old couples,a dog is also their child when their real children have grown up.So the main reason why people keep dogs has changed from protection to friendship.6.According to the passage,in the old days people trained dogs_______.A.for protection against robberyB.just for funC.for companionshipD.for protection against other animals7.The word“companionship”in Paragraph2means_______.A.worshipB.treasureC.friendly relationshipD.partnership8.The dogs were used for hunting because________.A.they were good huntersB.they obeyed their mastersC.they were useful for protectionD.they did not eat other animals9.The most important reason for people to keep dogs now is that_______.A.they need companionB.they like childrenC.they enjoy huntingD.they want to protect themselves10.We can infer(推断)from the passage that________.A.dogs can be helpful to those who need companyB.city people always feel lonelyC.dogs can be interestingD.the city can be a very dangerous placePassage3The biggest safety threat facing airlines today may notbe a terrorist with a gun,but the man with the portable computer in business class.In the last15years,pilots have reported well over100incidents that could have been caused by electromagnetic interference.The source of this interference remains unconfirmed,but increasingly, experts are pointing the blame at portable electronic devices such as portable computers,radio and cassette players and mobile telephones.RTCA,an organization which advises the aviation(航空) industry,has recommended that all airlines ban(禁止) such devices from being used during"critical"stages of flight,particularly take-off and landing.Some experts have gone further,calling for a total ban during all flights.Currently,rules on using these devices are left up to individual airlines.And although some airlines prohibit passengers from using such equipment during take-off and landing,most are reluctant to enforce a total ban,given that many passengers want to work during flights.The difficulty is predicting how electromagnetic fields might affect an aircraft's computers.Experts know that portable devices emit radiation which affects thosewavelengths which aircraft use for navigation and communication.8ut,because they have not been able to reproduce these effects in a laboratory,they have no way of knowing whether the interference might be dangerous or not.The fact that aircraft may be vulnerable(易受损的)to interference raises the risk that terrorists may use radio systems in order to damage navigation equipment.As worrying,though,is the passenger who can't hear the instructions to turn off his radio because the music's too loud.11.The passage is mainly about__________.A.a new regulation for all airlinesB.the defects of electronic devicesC.a possible cause of aircraft crashesD.effective safety measures for air flight12.What is said about the over100aircraft incidents in the past15years?A.They may have been caused by the damage to the radio systems.B.They may have taken Place during take-off and landing.C.They were proved to have been caused by the passengers, portable computers.D.They were suspected to have resulted from electromagnetic interference.13.Few airlines want to impose a total passengers using electronic devices because_________.A.they don’t believe there is such a danger as radio interferenceB.the harmful effect of electromagnetic interference is yet to be provedC.most passengers refuse to take a plane which bans the use of radio and cassetteplayersD.they have other effective safety measures to fall back on14.Why is it difficult to predict the possible effects of electromagnetic field on an airplane's computers? A.Because it is extremely dangerous to conduct such research on an airplaneB.Because it remains a mystery what wavelengths are liable to be interfered with.C.Because research scientists have not been able toproduce the same effects inlabsD.Because expert lack equipment to do such research.15.It can be inferred from the passage that the author ________.A.is in favor of prohibiting passengers-use of electronic devices completelyB.has overestimated the danger of electromagnetic interferenceC.hasn't formed his own opinion on this problemD.regards it as unreasonable to exercise a total ban during flightPassage4Sixteen-year-old Maria was waiting in line at the airport in Santo Domingo.She was leaving her native country to join her sister in the United States.She spoke English very well.Though she was very happy she could go abroad, she was feeling sad at leaving her family and fiends.As she was thinking all about this,she suddenly heard the airline employee asking her to pick up her luggage and put it on the scales(称).Maria pulled and pulled.The bag was too heavy and she just couldn’t lift it up.The manbehind her got very impatient.He,too,was waiting to check in his luggage.“What’s wrong with this girl?”He said,“Why doesn’t she hurry up?”He moved forward and placed his bag on the counter,hoping to check in fist.He was in a hurry to get a good seat.Maria was very angry,but she was very polite.And in her best English she said,“Why are you so upse t?There are enough seats for everyone on the plane.If you are in such a hurry,why can’t you give me a hand with my luggage?”The man was surprised to hear Maria speak English.He quickly picked up her luggage and stepped back.16.Maria’s story happened________.A.when she was leaving AmericaB.on her way back to Santo Domingo。

(each of the question 5 points, 25 points total)Oceanography(海洋学)has been defined as “The application of all sciences to the study of the sea”.Before the nineteenth century scientists with an interest in the sea were few and far between. Certainly Newton considered some theoretical aspects of it in his writings, but he was reluctant to go to sea to further his work.For most people the sea was remote, and with the exception of early intercontinental travelers or others who earned a living from the sea, there was little reason to ask many questions about it, let alone to ask what lay beneath the surface. The first time that the question “What is at the bottom of the oceans?”had to be answered with any commercial consequence was when the laying of a telegraph cable from Europe to America was proposed. The engineer had to know the depth profile (起伏形状) of the route to estimate the length of cable that had to be manufactured.It was to Maury of the US Navy that the Atlantic Telegraph Company turned, in 1853, for information on this matter. In the 1840s, Maury had been responsible for encouraging voyages during which soundings (测水深) were taken to investigate the depths of the North Atlantic and Pacific Oceans. Later, some of his findings aroused much popular interest in his book The Physical Geography of the Sea.The cable was laid, but not until 1866 was the connection made permanent and reliable. At the early attempts, the cable failed and when it was taken out for repairs it was found to be covered in living growths, a fact which defied contemporary scientific opinion that there was no life in deeper parts of the sea. Within a few years oceanography was under way. In 1872 Thomson led a scientific expedition (考察), which lasted for four years and brought home thousands of samples from the sea. Their classification and analysis occupied scientists for years and led to five-volume report, the last volume being published in 1895.1. The proposal to lay a telegraph cable from Europe to America made oceanographic studies take on ________.A. an academic aspectB. a military aspectC. a business aspectD. an international aspect2. It was ________ that asked Maury for help in oceanographic studies.A. the American NavyB. some early intercontinental travelersC. those who earned a living from the seaD. the company which proposed to lay an undersea cable3. The aim of the voyages Maury was responsible for in the 1840s was _______.A.to make some sounding experiments in the oceansB.to collect samples of sea plants and animalsC.to estimate the length of cable that was neededD.to measure the depths of the two oceans4. “Defied” in the 5th paragraph probably means “________”.A. doubtedB. gave proof toC. challengedD. agreed to5.
