It cannot be seen or heard, or touched or tasted, even though it exists all around us. There are other things like that. Radio waves are all around us but we cannot detect them, sense them, without a radio receiver. Similarly, we cannot sense radioactivity without a radio detector. But unlike common radio waves, unclear radiation is not harmless to human beings and otherthings.At very high levels, radiation can kill an animal or human being outright by killing masses of cells in vital organs. But even the lowest levels can do serious damage. There is no level of radiation that is completely safe. If the radiation does not hurt anything important, the damage may not be significant. This is the case when only a few cells are hit, and if they are killed outright, your body will replace the dead cells with healthy ones. But if the few cells are only damaged, and if they reproduce themselves, you may be in trouble. They reproduce themselves in a deformed way. They can grow into cancer. Sometimes this does not show up for many years.This is another reason for some of the mystery about nuclear radiation. Serious damage can be done without the victim being aware at the time that damage has occurred. A person can receive radiation and feel fine, then die of cancer five, ten or twenty years later as a result.1.The mystery about nuclear radiation may come from the fact that it cannot bedetected by human senses.A. RightB. Wrong2. We cannot sense radio activity without a radio receiver.A. RightB. Wrong3. Common radio waves are harmless to human beings and other things.A. RightB. Wrong4. Even at the lowest levels, radiation will cause cancer by killing the healthy cells.A. RightB. Wrong5. Victims of nuclear radiation may die of cancer years later.A. RightB. WrongSection C 补全短文Passage 1Many large cities are now anything but beautiful. Streets are littered with trash. In this trash, however, (1 ).If people want to solve the problem of waste, (2).

(3). when a bottle is empty, it goes out in the trash. But bottle glass can be ground into sand and used to pave roads. Garbage from food can be changed into fertilizer.

But so far, (5).A. there is no time to be lostB. building beautiful cities out of garbage is only a dreamC. there is still something that can be usefulD. It can be put to use again.E. more and more machines are designed for this purposeSection D 阅读理解Passage 1Holidays in the United States usually occur at least once a month. Most months have a national holiday that has been arranged to be celebrated on a Monday. The holidays have all been decided to be celebrated on a Monday so that the workers may have 3-day weekends ----that is, Saturday, Sunday and Monday in order to rest or travel or do things with their families. Major holidays in the United States such as New Year’s Day or Christmas Day or the day, when we remember the first settle rs of the United States, called Thanksgiving Day are celebrated all over the country. During these holidays most businesses close and the workers stay home and celebrate with their families.Vacation can be from 2 weeks a year to 4 weeks a year. This usually depends on how long you’ve been working for a company, what type of position you have,whether you have a very high position or a very important position and it’s difficult to find someone to replace you. In this case, you might take a few days at a time rather than taking one month all at once. Usually the more time you spend working for a company, the more time you may get for a vacation.1.

阅读理解Passage 1Have you ever seen a moon that looks unbelievably big? It hangs over the horizon 1ike a huge,pale hot-air balloon. Many people think of the bright full moon of autumn or the harvest moon that way-like a huge,pale hot-air balloon. But can you always trust your eyes?The harvest moon is the full moon on a day nearest the first day of autumn. Full or nearly full, it rises early in the evening for several nights in a row, It brings farmers well-lit evenings to harvest their crops.The harvest moon can look huge. But does it really fill more of the sky than an ordinary full moon?Why does the moon look bigger when it is near the horizon? Our brains compare the size of the moon with the size of the objects we see on the horizon. We know that the distant mountains, homes, or skyscrapers are really large. And, since the moon is much farther away than is the distant landscape, we ”see” the moon as being larger than it would otherwise look.1. To what do we compare the size of the harvest moon?A.

Because the earth is divided into twenty-four time zones one hour apart, you can have days with more or fewer than twenty-four hours,and weeks with more or fewer than seven days.If you make a five-day trip across the Atlantic Ocean, your ship enters a different time zone every day. As you enter each zone, the time changes the hour. Traveling west, you set your clock back;traveling east, you set it ahead. Each day of your trip has either twenty-five or twenty-three hours.If you travel by ship across the Pacific you cross theinternational date line. By agreement, this is the point where a new day begins. When you cross the line, you change your calendar the full day, backward or forward. Traveling east, today becomes yesterday;traveling west, it is tomorrow!1. The best title for this selection isA. A Trip Across the AtlanticB. How Time Changes Around the WorldC.

Instead, she spent millions of dollars to build a house. The strange thing about Sarah’s house was that it was never finished. Work on the house went on for 38 year because Sarah was afraid to stop building it.Sarah’s house was near San Jose, California Every day, a crew of carpenters, plumbers, and other workers arrived there. Sarah wanted more rooms and more doors and more windows, so the workers kept on building them. The house was seven floors high and had 160 rooms. There were 2000 doors and 10000 windows. There were also three elevators, nine kitchens, and 47 fireplaces.Why did Sarah want a house that kept geeing bigger? The reason seemed to be that Sarah was afraid of dying.

Diners appear in our novels, plays, poems, and movies. Many artists have used diners as scenes for their paintings. Why are diners so fascinating to us?The diner attracts many different kinds of people. It is a heaven for lonely truck drivers far away from home. Construction workers learn about new jobs in distant cities. Traveling salesmen exchange gossip with one another. Teenagers sit in their booths, eating hamburgers.The people who work in diners are also interesting. Where did the new waitress come from? Will she remain here, or will she suddenly run off one day, as the last one did? And is the short-order cook really an escaped prisoner, fleeing from the law?Everyone comes to the diner for a different reason. Some want to work there. And some want to eat there. Some stay for years, and others stay only for a few minutes. But, for all of them, the diner is a bright, warm stopover between the endless stretches of an open road.1.

Annual bike sales doubled between 1960 and 1970, and there are nearly 70 million bikes in the United States today. That’S more than two for every three automobiles.Of course, the bike has been around for more than 150 years, and this isn’t America’s first bicycle boom. A wave of bike enthusiasm swept the land in the late 1800s and bicycle production hit two million units in 1897. Then with the comingof the auto, bicycling declined; and for decades remained popular only with children and a few adult faddists.Now, national preoccupation with air pollution and physical fitness has brought the bike back to the forefront-particularly with adults. More than eight million bikes were sold in the United States last year and a third of them went to adults. The year before, only 15 percent of new bike sales were for adults.1. The word ‘‘embrace”in the first sentence is closest in meaning toA. make use ofB. take someone into almsC. containD. deal with2.

In the sentence“…and this isn’t America’s first bicycle boom.” The word ‘‘boom” meansA. a rapid increase in saleB. supermarketC. a rapid increase in priceD. shopPassage 7Doctors have known for a long time that extremely loud noises can cause hearing damage or loss. The noise can be the sound of a jet airplane or machines in factories or loud music or other common sounds found at home and at work.A person only needs to hear the noise for little more than one second to be affected.An American scientist had found that using aspirin can increase the temporary hearing loss or damage from loud noise. He did an experiment, using a number of male students at a university who all had normal hearing. He gave them different amounts of aspirin for different periods of time, then he tested their hearing ability. He found that students who were given four grams of aspirin a day for two days suffered much greater temporary hearing loss than those who did not use aspirin. The hearing loss was about twice as great.The scientist said millions of persons in the United Statesuse much larger amounts of aspirin than were used in the study. He said these persons face a serious danger of suffering hearing loss from loud noises.1. Doctors have long known thatA. one will become deaf when he hears a loud noiseB. hearing damage or loss can be caused by sounds of all kindsC. one may lose his hearing when he hears a terribly loud noiseD. common sounds at home are not harmful to the ear2. This passage suggests that one’s heatingA. will be damaged even if he has heard a loud noise for less than one secondB. will be damaged even if he has heard a loud noise for only little more than one secondC. will not be damaged if he has heard a loud noise for only little more than one secondD. will not be damaged if he has little more than one second to get ready3. According to this passage, one conclusion you can draw is that aspirinA. should never be taken more than four grams dailyB. can damage one’s hearing when it is given more than four grams dailyC. makes hearing damage from loud noise worseD. increases hearing loss by three times4. Millions of Americans are in danger of suffering hearing loss because theyA. often take jet airplanes on tripsB. like listening to loud musicC. are drowned in loud noises at home as well as at workD. take too much aspirin5. The purpose of the experiment the American scientist did was to findA. how much aspirin would affect a person’s hearingB. how much aspirin should be given in the treatment of the patients with hearing damage from loud noisesC. whether the person who had hearing damage should use aspirinD. whether aspirin would increase the temporary hearing damage from loud noisesPassage 8Just two months ago, Ana, a teenager, was preparing for an important exam. Winners receive scholarships and be able to study in the United States. Ana knew her grades were excellent, but she realized that she must do well on the exams in order toqualify for the $ 3000 stipend. Although Ana had worried about the interview part of the exam, she came through with flying colors. She spoke to the American interviewer about her family background and discussed her educational plans with them. Her hard work paid off, for she was one of the twenty awarded a four-year scholarship earlier this month.Now Ana cannot believe that she is sitting in a business management class at the University of California at Los Angeles.

Ana has many experiences taking the interview examB. Ana prepares for the interview examC. Ana comes through with flying colorsD. Ana takes examsPassage 9Any mistake made in the printing of a stamp raises its value to stamp collectors. A mistake on one inexpensive postage stamp has made the stamp worth a million and a half times its original value.The mistake was made more than a hundred years ago in British colony of Mauritius, a small island in the Indian Ocean. In 1847, and order for stamps was sent to London printers. Mauritius was to become the fourth country in the world to issue stamps.Before the order was filled and delivered, a ball was planned at Mauritius Government House, and stamps were needed to send out the invitations A local printer was instructedto copy the design for the stamps. He accidentally wrote down the words “Post Office’’instead of “Post Paid”on the several hundred stamps that he printed.Today there are only twenty-six of these misprinted stamps left-fourteen Onepenny Orange-Reds and twelve Twopenny Blues. Because of the Twopenny Blues’rareness and age, collectors have paid as much as $16800 for it.1. A postage stamp’s value to collectors is raised ifA. there are few others like it leftB. there are no mistakes on the stampC. a mistake is made in the printingD. both A and B2.

The valuable stamps were designed byA. Mauritius governmentB. British governmentC. Mauritius printersD. British printersPassage 10In the English educational system, students take three very important examinations. The first is the eleven-plus, which is taken at the age of eleven or a little past. At one time the ability or aptitude shown on the eleven-plus would have determined if a child stayed in school. Now, however, all children continue in “comprehensive”schools, and the eleven. plus determines which courses of study the child will follow At the age of fifteen or sixteen, the students are tested for the Ordinary Level of the General Certificate of Education. This examination covers a wide range of subjects; once students have passed this exam, they are allowed to specialize, so that two-thirds or more of their course will be in physics, chemistry, classical languages, or whatever they wish to study at greater length. The final examination, at eighteen, covers only the content of the special subjects. Even at the universities,students study only in theirconcentrated area, and very few students ever venture outside that subject again; in a real sense, the English boy or girl is a specialist from the age of fifteen.1. The purpose of this passage is toA. show why most English students are “specialists”B. show the superiority of the English educational systemC. discuss the qualities of the English educational systemD. describe three tests that the English educational system is based on2. The exam for the Ordinary Level of the General Certificate of Education is administrated at the age ofA. fifleenB. eighteenC. elevenD. thirteen3. We may conclude from the passage thatA. the exam that is taken at age eighteen is narrower than the other two examsB. failure on the eleven- plus exam excludes a student from further schoolingC. higher education is much narrower in scope in England than in AmericaD. physics and chemistry are the two most popular subjects4. The passage suggests thatA. most people in England are college graduatesB. schooling is very closely controlled in EnglandC. the failure rate on eleven. plus exam is quite highD. England’s structured educational system has reduced the illiteracy rate in that country dramatically5. As used in the last sentence, the word “venture” meansA. to take the riskB. to studyC. to take the exam ofD. to specializePassage 11For centuries, in the countries of south and Southeast Asia the elephant has been an intimate part of the culture, economy and religion. And nowhere more so than in Thailand. Unlike its African cousin, the Asian elephant is easily domesticated(驯化). The rare so-called white elephants have actually lent the authority of kingship to its rulers and until the 1920s the national flag was a white elephant on a red background. To the early Western visitors the country’s romantic name was“Land of the White Elephant”.Today, however, the story is very different. Out of work and out of land, the Thai elephant struggles for survival in a nation that no longer needs it. The elephant has found itself more or 1ess abandoned by previous owners who have moved on to a different economic world and a westernized society. Andwhile the elephant’s problems began many years ago, now it rates a very low national priority.How this reversal from national icon(圣像)to neglected animal came about is a tale of worsening environmental and the changing lives of the Thais themselves. According to Richard Lair, Thailand’s expert on the Asian elephant and author of the report Gone Astray, at the turn of the century there may well have been as many as 100000 domestic elephants in the country. In the north of Thailand alone it was estimated that more than 20000 elephants were employed in transport, 1000 of them alone on the road between the cities of Chiang Mai and Chiang Saen. This was at a time when 90 per cent of Thailand was still forest-a habitat(栖息地)that not only supported the animals but also made them necessary to carry goods and people Nothing ploughs through dense forest better than a massive but sure-footed elephant.By 1950 the elephant population had dropped to a still substantial 13397, but today there are probably no more than 3800, with another l350 roaming free in the national parks. But now, Thailand’s forest covers only 20 per cent of the land This deforestation(采伐森林)is the central point of the elephant’s difficult situation, for it has effectively put the animals out ofwork. This century, as the road network grew, so the elephant’s role as a beast of burden declined.1. What can we know about African elephants from the passage?A. It is easy to tame themB. It is hard to tame them.C. They are living a better life than Asian elephants.D. Their fate is quite similar to that of Asian elephants2. Thailand was once called“Land of the White Elephant”becauseA. white elephant is rarely seen and thus very specialB. white elephant was a national symbol until the 1920sC. white elephant has helped kings to gain the ruling authorityD. this name was so romantic that it was popular among visitors3. Why is the Thai elephant“out of work”, according to the author?A. Because the elephants are no longer useful to their owners.B. Because their owners are westernized and neglect themC. Because the government pays little attention to theproblem.D. Because there are too many elephants and too few jobs.4. Which of the following statements is tree about the elephant population at various times?A. There were 100000 tamed elephants at the turn of the century.B. 20000 elephants were employed in transport in Thailand at the turn of the century.C. By 1950 the elephant population in Thailand has been quite small.D. Today the elephant population is estimated at 5150.5. The passage is most probably fromA. a travel magazineB. a history bookC. a research reportD. an official announcementPassage 12The communications explosion is on the scale of the rail, automobile or telephone revolution. Very soon you’ll be able to record your entire life electronically-anything a microphone or a camera can sense you’ll be able to store. In particular, the number of images a person captures in a lifetime is sure to rise dramatically. The thousand images a year I take of my children on a digital camera are all precious to me In a generation’s time,my children’s children will have total image documentation of their entire lives—a visual diary of tremendous personal value.In Cambridge, we’re already working on millimeter-square (平方毫米) computing and sensing devices that can be linked to the Internet through the radio network. This sort of connectivity will expand dramatically as tiny communications devices become dirt-cheap and multiply. Just imagine what the paint on the wall could do if it had this sort of communications dust in it:change color, play music, show movies or even speak of you.Falling costs raise other possibilities too. Because launching space vehicles is about to become very much cheaper, the number of satellites is likely to go up greatly. There’s lots of space up there so we could have millions of them. And if you have millions of low-orbit satellites you can establish a global communications network that completely does away with towers and poles.Speech is so flexible that I expect voice communication to become almost free eventually:you’ll pay just a monthly fixed charge and be able to make as many calls as you want. By then people will also have fixed links with business contacts, friends and relatives. One day I anticipate being able to keep in touch with my family in Poland on an optical-fiber audio-video link;we’ll be able to sit down “together” to eat.Cars arc an interesting IT-platform because they have big batteries and the lots of so far unconnected digital devices. Soon each one will be on the Internet so your children can play games while you’re traveling and your partner can deal with their email. And every lamppost could be on the Internet too-each one with sensors to monitor light, pollution, air quality and traffic flow.1. By saying that he takes may images of his children, the author wants toA. show his great interest in photographyB. compare his own life with his children’sC. display the influence of communications on lifeD. demonstrate the ease of enjoying life electrically2.
