And you are now collecting suggestions about whether to hold it in your museum or the art gallery. I am now writing to express my opinion that the exhibition should be held in the museum. My reasons are as follows.In terms of convenience, the museum has more advantages over the gallery. First, it is located in the People’s Square, which is the center of the city. So people can enjoy convenient transportation such as the subway line 1, 2 and 8, which are available to people from nearly every district. It saves the visitors a lot of time and trouble of traffic jam. Another advantage is that it is easy to be found by those from other provinces around the country. After all the Shanghai Museum is a landmark of our city familiar to nearly every Chinese.With regard to the professional function, though it seems natural that an art exhibition be set in the gallery, in a more general sense, I think the museum has more advanced facilities to make the exhibition successful and to preserve the paintings well. As we know, the museum has successfully held many national and international exhibitions and its advertising and organizing experience is of no match; also its staff is qualified and professional.To sum up, I am sure the show will be fantastic if it is held in Shanghai Museum.(248 words) '.。

Once in four years they had a great sports game. Many thousands of people came together upon a wide plain to see the contests of skill among men and boys from all parts of Greece. The great games were running races, wrestling matches, horse races, and chariot races. There were games for boys as well as for men. The prize for winning a game seemed very simple: no more than a wild olive tree leave crown; but to wear one of these crowns was the greatest honor, and he went home covered with glory. Ancient athletes competed as individuals. The emphasis on individual athletic achievement through public competition was related to the Greek ideal of excellence. Sportsmen who attained this ideal, through their outstanding words or deeds, won permanent glory and fame.1．Passage 1正确答案：奥林匹克运动会可以追溯到古代，希腊人喜欢各种运动，因为运动能够使身体强健。

But can GM technology solve world hunger problems? Even if it would, is it the best solution?Despite what it promises, GM technology actually has not increased the production potential of any crop. In fact, studies show that the most widely grown GM crop, GM soybeans, has suffered __42__ productivity. For instance, a report that analyzed nearly two decades of research on major GM food crops shows that GM engineering has failed to significantly increase US crop production.Something else, however, has been on the rise. While GM seeds are __43__, GM companies tell farmers that they will make good profits by saving money on pesticides(杀虫剂). On the contrary, US government data show that GM crops in the US have produced an overall increase in pesticide use __44__ to traditional crops. “The promise was that you could use less chemicals and __45__ production. But nei ther is true,” said Bill Christiso n, President of the US National Farm Coalition.At the same time, the authors of the book World Hunger: Twelve Myths argue that there actually is more than enough food in the world and that the hunger crisis is not caused by production, but by problems in food distribution and __46__. These indeed __47__ our efforts and money. Meanwhile, the rise in food prices results from the increased use of crops for fuel rather than food, according to a World Bank report.As a matter of fact, scientists see better ways to __48__ the world. Another World Bank report concluded that GM crops have little to offer to the challenges of worldwide poverty and hunger, because better ways out are __49 __, among which “green” farming is supposed to be the first choice.III. Reading ComprehensionSection ADirections: For each blank in the following passage there are four words or phrases marked A, B, C and D. Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context.For many parents, raising a teenager is like fighting a long war, but years go by without any clear winner. Like a border conflict between neighboring countries, the parent-teen war is about boundaries: Where is the line between what I __50__ and what you do?Both sides want peace, but neither feels it has any power to stop the __51__. In part, this is because neither is willing to admit any responsibility for __52__. From the parents’ point of view, the only cause of their fight is their adolescents’ complete unreasonableness. And of course, the teens see it in exactly the same way, except__53__ . Both feel trapped.In this article, I’ll describe three no-win situations that commonly __54__ between teens and parents and then suggest some ways out of the trap. The first no-win situation is quarrels over __55__ things. Examples include the color of the teen’s hair, the cleanliness of the bedroom, the __56__ style of clothing, the child’s __57__ to eat a good breakfast before school, or his __58__ to sleep until noon on the weekends. Second, __59__. The goal of a blaming battle is to make the other admit that his bad attitude is the reason why everything goes wrong. Third, needing to be __60__. It doesn’t matter what the __61__ is —politics, the laws of physics ,or the proper way to break an egg —the point of these __62__ is to prove that you are right and the other person is wrong, for both wish to be considered an __63__—someone who actually knows something —and therefore to command__64__. Unfortunately, as long as parents and teens continue to assume that they know more than the other, they’ll continue to fight these battles forever and never make any real progress.50.A. display B. control C. forgive D. motivate51.A. pressure B. intention C. conflict D. misunderstanding52.A. starting B. recognizing C. indentify D. releasing53.A. occasionally B. completely C. precisely D. oppositely54.A. loss B. arise C. decline D. obtain55.A. unimportant B. unique C. specific D. significant56.A. reasonable B. preferred C. changeable D. granted57.A. desire B. attempt C. passion D. failure58.A. willingness B. right C. tendency D. promise59.A. blaming B. gossiping C. shouting D. commanding60.A. powerful B. knowledgeable C. instructive D. right61.A. question B. topic C. hint D. article62.A. problems B. difference C. arguments D. obstacles63.A. authority B. instructor C. opponent D. advisor64.A. information B. image C. knowledge D. respectSection BDirections:Read the following four passages. Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, and C. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read.(A)Does it feel right?This is an excerpt from Oprah Winfrey’s 2008 Stanford Commencement (毕业典礼) Address:A year after I left college, I was given the opportunity to co-anchor (共同主持) the 6 o’clock news in Baltimore…Yet, it didn’t feel right. The first sign, as President Hennessy was saying, was when they tried to change my name. T he news director said to me at the time: “Nobody’s going to remember Oprah. So, we want to change your name. We’ve come up with a name we think that people will remember and people will like. It’s a friendly name: Suzie.”… I grew up not loving the name, but once I was asked to change it, I thought, well, it is my name and do I look like a Suzie to you? So, I thought, no, it doesn’t feel right. I’m not going to change my name. And if people remember it or not, that’s OK.And then they said they didn’t like the way I looked… So, they sent me to a salon where they gave me a perm (烫发), and after a few days all my hair fell out and I had to shave my head. And then they really didn’t like the way I looked, because now I am black and bald and sitting on TV. Not a pretty picture.But even worse than being bald, I really hated, hated, hated being sent to report on other people’s tragedies as a part of my daily duty, knowing that I was just expected to observe, when everything in my instinct told me that I should be doing something, (and that) I should be lending a hand…It felt right. And that’s where everything that followed for me began. And after eight months, I lost that job. They said I was too emotional. I was too much. But since they didn’t want to p ay out the contract, they put me on a talk show in Baltimore. And the moment I sat down on that show, the moment I did, I felt like I’d come home. I realized that TV could be more than just a playground, but a platform for service, for helping other people’s lives improve. And the moment I sat down, doing that talk show, it felt like breathing.And I got that lesson. When you’re doing the work you’re meant to do, it feels right and every day is a bonus (意外收获), regardless of what you’re getting paid.65. Why did Oprah refuse to change her name to Suzie?A. She wanted to be herself.B. It would be inconvenient.C. The name Suzie was too ordinary.D. She was fond of her own name.66.

She hoped she could decide what to report.D. She was asked to change her name and shave her hair off.67. What does “that lesson” in the last par agraph refer to?A. Listening to your heart.B. A good beginning makes a good ending.C. Don’t hesitate to find a better job.D. Helping people improve.68. Which of the following best describes Oprah?A. Understanding and optimistic.B.

But it also leads to a fossil fuel. Natural gas is considered the cleanest of the fossil fuels, the fuels created by plant and animal remains over millions of years.Burning it releases fewer pollutants than oil or coal. The gas is mainly methane(甲烷). It produces half the carbon dioxide of other fossil fuels. So it may help cut the production of carbon gases linked to climate change.Russia is first in what are called "proved reserves" of natural gas. The United States is sixth. Over the years, big oil and gas companies recovered much of the easily reached supplies of gas in America. They drilled straight down into formations where gas collects. As these supplies were used up, big drillers looked for similar formations in other countries.But now the industry is taking a new look. Companies are developing gas supplies trapped in shale rock two to three thousand meters underground. They drill down to the shale (页岩), then go sideways and inject high-pressure water, sand or other material into the rock. This causes the rock to break, or fracture, releasing the gas. Huge fields of gas shale are believed to lie under the Appalachian Mountains, Michigan and the south-central states.Gas shale exploration is being done mainly by small to medium sized companies. Eric Potter is a program director in the Bureau of Economic Geology at the University of Texas at Austin.ERIC POTTER: "The types of opportunities that are left for natural gas exploration in the U.S. have changed. So it's a different class of resource -- not as easy to develop, and not even recognized as something worth pursuing, say, twenty years ago."He says more than half the gas in the United States is now coming from these new reserves.But hydraulic fracturing can also produce debate and anger over the risk of groundwater pollution. This method of drilling is not federally supervised under the Safe Drinking Water Act. Some in Congress want to end that exemption (免除) from the law.Natural gas provides Americans with about one-fourth of their energy. And, unlike oil, most of it is produced in America. Gas producers invested heavily in reaching new supplies when prices were high. But prices are down sharply now because the recession(经济衰退) cut demand for energy. So energy expert Eric Potter says it is too early to know how the new gas shale reserves will affect the market.72. Which of the following statements is TRUE about fossil fuels?A. Fossil fuels are a kind of renewable resource just like sun, wind and water.B. Burning natural gas releases more pollutants than oil or coal.C. Fossil fuels were created millions of years ago by plant and animal remains.D. Using fossil fuels may help change the climate.73. What does the writer mean by saying “now the industry is taking a new look”?A. The U.S. will be ranked first in natural gas because it has huge fields of gas shale.B. People gain natural gas from shale rock using a method different from the traditional ones.C. Gas shale exploration will bring human beings abundant supply of natural gas.D. There should be no concern over the energy shortage because the industry is developing.74. When did gas producers invest heavily in finding new supplies of natural gas?A. When people’s demand for energy increased.B. When natural gas provided Americans with about one-fourth their energy.C. When Americans began to look for cleaner energyD. When the economy was in recession.75. Which one is TRUE about gas shale exploration?A. It is against the Safe Drinking Water Act.B. It was considered not worth doing twenty years ago.C. It will release pollutants to the water.D. It will bring down the price of natural gas.Section CDirections:Read the following text and choose the most suitable heading from A-F for each paragraph. There is one extra heading which you do not need.A. Relocate the meaning of life.B. Say goodbye to guilt and regret.C. Avoid repetition.D. Do something new.AB. Give to get.AC. Put yourself in the fun zone.Five Secrets of High-Energy People76.Very little that’s new occurs in our lives. The impact of this sameness on our emotional energy is gradual, but huge: It’s like a tire with a slow leak. You don’t notice it at first, but eventually you’ll get a flat. Here’s a challenge: If it’s something you wouldn’t ordinarily do, do it. Try a dish you’ve never eaten. Listen to music you’d ordinarily tune out. You’ll dis cover these small things add to your emotional energy.77.The first step in solving this meaning shortage is to figure out what you really care about, and then do something about it. A case in point is Ivy, 57, a pioneer in investment banking. “I mista kenly believed that all the money I made would mean something,” she says. “But I feel lost, like a 22-year-old wondering what to do with her life.”Ivy’s solution? She started a program that shows Wall Streeters how to donate time and money to poor children. In the process, Ivy filled her life with meaning.78.Most of us grown-ups live a dull life. High-energy people have the same day-to-day work as the rest of us, but they manage to find something enjoyable in every situation. A real estate broker I know keeps herself amused on the job by mentally redecorating the houses she shows to clients. “I love imagining what even the most run-down house could look like with a little tender loving care,” she says. “It’s a challenge—and the least desirable propertie s are usually the most fun.”79.Everyone’s past is filled with regrets that still cause pain. But from an emotional energy point of view, they are dead weights that keep us from moving forward. While they can’t merely be willed away, I do recommend you remind yourself that whatever happened is in the past, and nothing can change that. Holding on to the memory only allows the damage to continue into the present.80.Emotional energy has a kind of magical quality; the more you give, the more you get back. This is the difference between emotional and physical energy. With the latter, you have to get it to be able to give it. With the former, however, you get it by giving it. After all, if it’s true that whatgoes around comes around, why not make sure that what’s circulating around you is the good stuff?Section DDirections:Read the passage carefully. Then answer the questions or complete the statements in the fewest possible words.Many of the problems facing today’s world aren’t news to us. The en vironment is in dire need of help because it’s being damaged, hunger is widespread throughout the world, and workers in third world countries are continuously being exploited. Therefore, individuals across the globe need to band together for a cause and use their collective efforts to make all the difference in the world.For instance, one person recycling a can or a bottle doesn’t seem like much. But if every household in a given city were to recycle and conserve energy, that city could make a huge positive impact on environmental damage. Similarly, there are countless ways to help fight world hunger—whether it’s to donate money to a dedicated worldwide charity, donate canned goods to your local charity, or even make lifestyle changes like going vegetarian. World hunger is a massive problem—but it doesn’t mean individuals themselves can’t make a difference.Worker exploitation is another huge problem. All across the world—particularly in third world countries—workers are forced to labor long hours, with close to no pay. Yet these workers continue to show up to such a way of life, because they have no other options.So, how can people like us help fight such a big problem? Simply raising awareness of the products you buy in stores—from clothing to food—is a massive start. For example, if you see two similar products side by side in a food shop, but one of them is labeled “fair trade”，you’ll know immediately that the workers who labored to produce that product were given a fair price for their goods. And true, fair trade products might cost a little bit more, but buying them is a significant start to help fight worker exploitation.In short, each of us should be socially conscious to make a difference to widespread social problems.(Note: Answer the questions or complete the statements in NOT MORE THAN 10 words.) 81. According to the passage, what are the problems facing today’s world？_________________________________________________________.82. To overcome the problems facing today’s world, people should _________________________________________________________________________.83. We can fight world hunger by ___________________________________________.84. If you ______________________________________, you are helping fight worker exploitation.第II卷（45分）I.

The latest __41__ on superfast broadband delivered by fiber to the home (FTTH) show 18% growth over the last survey compiled in late 2008.The continued growth suggests that the __42__ economic decline has not hit plans to build fiber networks. Sweden __43__ the list of nations applying the technology, with 10.9% of its broadband customers using fiber. Karel Helsen, president of Europe’s Fiber-To-The-Home Council, said the growth matched predictions that were __44__ when the credit crisis started to make itself felt. “The numbers in 2009 are in line with the latest forecasts,” said Mr. Helsen.By 2012, the FTTH Council expects that 13 million people across 35 European nations will have their broadband delivered by fiber.

There can be little prospect of raising the sort of sums needed from friends and people we know. While banks may agree to provide short-term finance, they are generally __52__ to provide money on a permanent basis for long-term projects.

This they do by __54__ stocks and shares in the business through the Stock Exchange. By doing so they can put into circulation the savings of __55__ and organizations, both at home and overseas. When the saver needs his money back, he does not have to go to the company with whom he originally placed it. __56__, he sells his shares through a stockbroker to some other saver who is seeking to __57__ his money.Many of the __58__ needed both by industry and by each of us are provided by the government or by local authorities.

Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read.(A)A voyaging ship was wrecked during a storm at sea and only two of the men aboard were able to swim to a small, desert-like island. Not knowing what else to do, the two survivors agreed that they had no alternativethan to pray to God.However, to find out whose prayers were more powerful, they agreed to divide the territory between them a nd stay on opposite sides of the island.The first thing they prayed for was food. The next morning, the first man saw a fruit-bearing tree on his side of the island, and he was able to eat its fruit. But the other man’s parcel of land remained barren.After a week, the first man became lonely and decided to pray for a wife. The next day, another ship was wrecked and the only survivor was a woman who swam to his side of the island. But on the other side of the island, there was nothing.Soon thereafter the first man prayed for a house, clothes and more food. The next day, like magic, all of these things were given to him. However, the second man still had nothing.Finally, the first man prayed for a ship so that he and his wife could leave the island, and in the morning he found a ship docked at his side of the island.The first man boarded the ship with his wife and decided to leave the second man on the island, considering the other man unworthy to receive God’s blessings since none of his prayers had be enanswered.As the ship was about to leave, the first man heard a voice from Heaven booming, “Why are you leaving your companion on the island?”“My blessings are mine alone since I was the one who prayed for them,” the first man answered. “His prayers were all unanswered and so he doesn’t deserve an ything.”“You are mistaken!” the voice rebuked him. “He had only one prayer, which I answered. If not for that, you would not have received any of my blessings.”“Tell me,” the first man asked the voice, “what did he pray for that I should owe him anything?”“He prayed that all your prayers would be answered.”For all we know, our blessings are not the fruits of our prayers alone, but those of another praying for us. So what you do for others is more important than what you do for yourself.65. The first man’s wife is _____.A. a swimmer who got to the island by accidentB. an angel sent by God to keep him companyC. a survivor from another wrecked shipD. a native person on the desert-like island66.

He met with a bipartisan (concerning or involving two different political parties) group of lawmakers on Capitol Hill. Later he met individually with Democratic and Republican House and Senate leaders and spoke to a bipartisan leadership gathering. In comments to reporters early on Monday, he emphasized the urgency of finalizing economic legislation (立法). “We have got an extraordinary econ omic challenge ahead of us,” he said, “Weare expecting a sobering job report at the end of the week. Nancy Pelosi and her staff have been extraordinarily helpful in working with our team so that we can shape an economic recovery and reinvestment plan that starts putting people back to work.”Mr. Obama wants tax cuts for individual Americans and businesses to make up a significant portion of expected legislation. This could involve as much as $300 billion of a bill that is likely to go beyond $700 billion and include aid to cash-poor U.S. states, and money for alternative energy and a range of infrastructure (基础设施) projects. Later, Mr. Obama said he expects to be able to sign legislation as soon as the end of this month, adding that quick action is necessary to “break the drive of the U.S. econo mic depression”.Emerging later from bipartisan talks with Mr. Obama, Nancy Pelosi said lawmakers discussed with the president how to pass a stimulus package as quickly as possible. “An economic recovery package that will create jobs immediately and will grow the economy and that is what we talked about today,” said Nancy Pelosi. “How we could do this fast, deliberatively and to act upon it soon.” Just how soon that would be, Pelosi would not say.How much support Democrats can obtain from Republicans will depend on the details. But the severity of the U.S. economic depression has created considerable bipartisan backing for quick action. Senate Majority Leader, Harry Reid said: “There are investments that we need to make on behalf of the American people to turn around this economy. We felt very good about the meeting; we ar e confident that we can do this and we have to do this.”“I think the best thing I can do is to decline to comment on what they are going to do going forward,” said Dana Perino. “Obviously, we think that tax cuts were the right way to help our economy get out of the economic depression that this president inherited and we know that tax cuts can stimulate innovation.” Asked by reporters how large the economic stimulus package might be, Senate Majority Leader Reid said Obama indicated that all but one of some 28 economists advising him had said it should range from $800 billion to $1.3 trillion.72. Barack Obama urged congressional leaders and met with bipartisan leaders to _____.A. take over the White HouseB. end economic declineC. understand each other betterD. negotiate political issues73.

The best way out of the economic depression is tax cuts.B. The Republic Party plays the key role in coping with the economic depression.C. Democrats and Republicans will team up in the economic depression.D. When the stimulus package will be passed is known to the lawmakers.Section CDirections: Read the following text and choose the most suitable heading from A-F for each paragraph. There is one extra heading which you do not need.A. Factors that influence reactions to pollutantsB. Possible sources of indoor air pollutionC. Ways to identify diseases with similar symptomsD. Long-term effects after repeated exposureE. A commonly-ignored health threatF. Immediate symptoms and regular treatment76.Most people are aware that outdoor air pollution can damage their health, but many do not know that indoor air pollution can also have significant health effects. Environmental Protection Agency studies indicate that indoor levels of pollutants may be 2-5 times, and occasionally more than 100 times, higher than outdoor levels. These levels of indoor air pollutants may be of particular concern because most people spend about 90％of their time indoors.[来源:]77.There are many sources of indoor air pollution in any home. These include combustion sources such as oil, gas, coal, wood, and tobacco products; building materials and furnishings as diverse as deteriorated asbestos-containing insulation, wet or damp carpet, and cabinetry or furniture made of certain pressed wood products; products for household cleaning and maintenance, personal care, or hobbies; central heating and cooling systems and humidification devices; and outdoor sources such as radon, pesticides, and outdoor air pollution.78.Immediate effects may show up after a single exposure or repeated exposures. These include irritation of the eyes, nose, and throat, headaches, dizziness, and fatigue. Such immediate effects are usually short-term and treatable. Sometimes the treatment is simply eliminating the person's exposure to the source of the pollution, if it can be identified. Symptoms of some diseases, including asthma, hypersensitivity and fever, may also show up soon after exposure to some indoor air pollutants.[来源:]79.The likelihood of immediate reactions to indoor air pollutants depends on several factors. Age and pre-existing medical conditions are two important influences. In other cases, whether a person reacts to a pollutant depends on individual sensitivity, which varies tremendously from person to person. Some people can become sensitized to biological pollutants after repeated exposures, and it appears that some people can become sensitized to chemical pollutants as well.80.Certain immediate effects are similar to those from colds or other viral diseases, so it is often difficult to determine if the symptoms are a result of exposure to indoor air pollution. For this reason, it is important to pay attention to the time and place the symptoms occur. If the symptoms fade or go away when a person is away from the home and return when the person returns, an effort should be made to identify indoor air sources that may be possible causes.Section DDirections: Read the passage carefully. Then answer the questions or complete the statements inthe fewest possible words.Children and adolescents who watch a lot of television are more likely to have antisocial and criminal behavior when they become adults, according to a new University of Otago, New Zealand, study published online in the journal Pediatrics. The study followed a group of around 1,000 children born in the New Zealand city of Dunedin in 1972-1973. Every two years between the ages of 5 and 15, they were asked how much television they watched. Those who watched more television were more likely to have a criminal conviction and were also more likely to have antisocial personality traits in adulthood.The study found that the risk of having a criminal behavior by early adulthood increased by about 30% with every hour that children spent watching TV on an average weeknight.The study also found that watching more television in childhood was associated, in adulthood, with aggressive personality, an increased tendency to experience negative emotions, and an increased risk of antisocial personality disorder; a psychiatric disorder characterised by persistent patterns of aggressive and antisocial behavior.The researchers found that the relationship between TV viewing and antisocial behavior was not explained by socio-economic status, aggressive or antisocial behavior in early childhood, or parenting factors.A study co-author, Lindsay Robertson, says it is not that children who were already antisocial watched more television. “Rather, children who watched a lot of television were likely to go on to manifest antisocial behavior and personality traits.”Other studies have suggested a link between television viewing and antisocial behavior, though very few have been able to demonstrate a cause-and-effe ct sequence. This is the first ‘real-life’ study that has asked about TV viewing throughout the whole childhood period, and has looked at a range of antisocial outcomes in adulthood. As an observational study, it cannot prove that watching too much television caused the antisocial outcomes, but the findings are consistent with most of the research and provides further evidence that excessive television can have long-term consequences for behavior.Antisocial behavior is a major problem for society. While we’re not saying that television causes all antisocial behavior, our findings do suggest that reducing TV viewing could go some way towards reducing rates of antisocial behavior in society,” says Associate Professor Hancox.The American Academy of Pediatrics recommends that children should watch no more than 1 to 2 hours of quality television programming each day. The researchers say their findings support the idea that parents should try to limit their children's television use.(Note: Answer the questions or complete the statements in NO MORE THAN TEN WORDS.)81.

Now new networks track doctors' treating record in the hope to discourage unnecessary testing. Patients, on the other hand ,are worried about denial of services.Doctors can find themselves caught in a bind between anxious and worrying patients and insurance networks that dismiss doctors with inefficient practice patterns.Upset factors,such as malpractice concerns and falling fees ,among which the worsening doctor-patient relationship tops the ranking list-are contributing to the nation's increasing shortage of primary-care doctors.Is there a better way to do this, without limiting a patient's choice or lowering the quality of healthcare?One solution is that we can introduce care organizations, which have the goal of improving both patients' health outcomes and the efficient use of resources. Like an HMO, this new kind of care organization involves networks of doctors, hospitals and patients. By carefully balancing care among doctors computerized medical records to identify the appropriate use of services, it encourages preventive care and measure quality.Given the obvious benefits during its pilot time, we are also encouraged to look at the program called Choosing Wisely .The program is aimed at encouraging both physicians and patients, with the help of professional model ,to carefully consider the wisdom of medical procedures. In most cases ,useless procedures are not only wasting money, but also subjecting patients to additional risk without the potential ti improve their health.(NOTE: Answer the questions or complete the statements in NO MORE THAN TEN WORDS.)mercial insurance data are mentioned in the first paragraph to show that ________.82.Patients'________attitude towards medical care caused today's overtreatment.83.What is the leading reason for lack of primary-care doctors?84.What are the two methods to fight the environment problem?第二卷（共45分）I.
