The scientists point to the fact that changes in the past thirty years may, have been affecting human health. Possible effects include more deaths from extreme(极度的) heat or cold, more storms and more crop failures in dry periods.The health and climate scientists recently estimated(估计) that climate changes caused by human activity lead to more than one hundred and fifty thousand deaths each year. Cases of sickness are estimated at five million. And the W.H.O. says the numbers could rise quickly by the year of 2003.Jonathan Patz of an environmental institute led the study. Professor Patz points out that climate scientists connected global warming with the heat that killed thousands in Europe in August, 2003. But he says poor countries least responsible(对……负责) for the warming are most in danger from the health effects of higher temperatures.Professor Patz says areas in greatest danger include southern and eastern Africa and coastlines along the Pacific and Indian oceans. Also, large cities experience what scientists call a "heat island"effect that can make conditions worse.Representatives(代表) from about two hundred countries hold a meeting in Canada, to discuss climate change. The ten-day meeting ends on December 9th. It is the first such United Nations meeting since the KyotoProtocol(京都议定书) took effect earlier this year. The agreement aims to reduce the amount of carbon dioxide(二氧化碳) and other heat-trapping(吸热的) gases sent off into the air.【1】Who is Jonathan Patz?A.A scientist responsible for the climate change.B.A scientist in charge of the study of the climate change.C.A professor interested in the climate change.D.A professor who is a representative from an African country.【2】Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?A.Climate changes affect different parts of the world in the same way.B.The ten-day meeting is the first United Nations meeting on climate change.C.The Kyoto Protocol aims to make smaller the amount of heat-trapping gases into the air. D.Poor countries are responsible for the global warming.【3】Possible effects from the climate changes include the following EXCEPT ______.A.crop failures B.storms C.more deaths fromoverheatD.air pollution【4】According to the health and climate scientists, climate changes have been caused by ______.A.dry weather B.cold weather C.human activities D.storms【5】We can infer from the passage that ______.A.climate changes are having a bad effect on human’s healthB.Professor Patz leads the study of climate changesC.a "heat island"effect large cities experience makes the matter worseD.rich countries are most responsible for climate changes2.In the Middle Ages in Europe, theater was an important part of civic, economic and religious life. During this period after the fall of Roman civilization, many cities were destroyed. Southern and Western Europe, famous for its agriculture, became increasingly more agricultural. After several hundred years, many towns appeared again. The Roman Catholic Church took over religion, education and politics. What remained of theater was mostly on the Greek and Roman performing arts.Theater was reborn as liturgical(礼拜式的) dramas. It was written in Latin and dealing with biblical(圣经) stories which would be performed by church members. Then there came local dramas spoken in common language not Latin. They were more wonderful one-act dramas taking place in town squares or other parts of the city. There were three types of local dramas. Mystery or cycle plays were short dramas based on biblical stories organized into historical cycles. Miracle plays dealt with the lives of the great. Morality(道德的) plays taught a lesson through characters standing for good or bad qualities. Secular plays in this period existed, but religious drama in the Middle Ages is mostly remembered today. As the Middle Ages ended, the number of religious theatres became small as the church weakened and more secular qualities won over religious theaters.【1】The underlined sentence in the first paragraph means that _____.A.people got away from the citiesB.people liked to live in the countryC.agriculture was more developed at that timeD.people thought less of city life【2】 According to the passage, what does "secular plays"mean here?A.Plays that deal with the lives of the great.B.Plays that taught a lesson.C.Plays based on biblical stories.D.Plays that are not connected with thechurch.【3】Why did religious theatres become less important as the Middle Ages came to an end?A.People were not interested in them any longer.B.The church was not as important as what it had been.C.People liked new plays.D.The stories of religious theatres were outdated.【4】According to the passage, why did religious theatres take over in the Middle Ages?A.People preferred religious theatres to other ones.B.There were no other types of theatres.C.The church played an important part in people’s life.D.The quality of religious theatres was better than that of other theatres.【5】What would be the best title for the passage?A.European dramasB.Religious dramasC.Religious theatres in the Middle AgesD.Secular dramas in the Middle Ages全国高二高中英语同步测试答案及解析一、单词拼写单词拼写。

Graduates earn more than non-graduates. Meanwhile, social mobility is ever more dependent on having a degree. However, only some people have it. So the individual, not the taxpayers, should pay for it. There are pressing calls on the resources (资源) of the government. Using taxpayers' money to help a small number of people to earn high incomes in the future is not one of them. Full government funding (资助) is not very good for universities. Adam Smith worked in a Scottish university whose teachers lived off student fees. He knew and looked down upon 18th-century Oxford, where the academics lived comfortably off the income received from the government. Guaranteed salaries, Smith argued, were the enemy of hard work; and when the academics were lazy and incompetent, the students were similarly lazy. If students have to pay for their education, they not only work harder, but also demand more from their teachers. And their teachers have to keep them satisfied. If that means taking teaching seriously, and giving less time to their own research interests, that is surely something to celebrate.Many people believe that higher education should be free because it is good for the economy (经济). Many graduates clearly do contribute to national wealth, but so do all the businesses that invest (投资) and create jobs. If you believe that the government should pay for higher education because graduates are economically productive, you should also believe that the government should pay part of business costs. Anyone promising to create jobs should receive a gift of capital from the government to invest. Therefore, it is the individual, not the government, who should pay for their university education.【1】The underlined word "them" in Paragraph 2 refers to.A.taxpayers B.pressing callsC.college graduates D.government resources【2】The author thinks that with full government funding.A.teachers are less satisfied.B.students are more demanding.C.students will become more competent.D.teachers will spend less time on teaching【3】The author mentions businesses in Paragraph 5 in order to.A.argue against free university educationB.call on them to finance students' studiesC.encourage graduates to go into businessD.show their contribution to higher education2.There was a story many years ago of a school teacher--- Mrs. Thompson. She told the children on the first day that she loved them all the same. But that was a lie. There in the front row was a little boy named Teddy Stoddard. He didn’t play well with the other children and he always needed a bath. She did not like him.Then Mrs. Thompson got to know that Teddy was actually a very good boy before the death of his mother. Mrs. Thompson was ashamed of herself. She felt even worse when, like all her other students, Teddy brought her a Christmas present too. It was his mother’s perfume(香水)。

In the bustling city of Nanjing, Jiangsu Province, students in their second year of high school are embarking on a journey through literature that will not only enrich their academic lives but also shape their personalities and broaden their horizons.The autumn semester brings with it a fresh batch of books, each carrying its own story and lessons. From the classic tales of Shakespeare that teach us about the complexities of human nature, to the modern novels that reflect the struggles and triumphs of contemporary society, students delve into these pages with eager anticipation.In Mrs. Li’s English class, the focus is not just on memorizing grammar rules or analyzing sentence structures. It’s about engaging with the text, understanding the characters’ motivations, and empathizing with their experiences. The classroom buzzes with discussions as students share their interpretations and insights, fostering a love for literature that transcends the boundaries of language learning.This semester’s English curriculum includes a diverse range of genres and themes, designed to challenge and inspire students. From historical fiction that transports them to different eras, to science fiction that sparks their imagination about the future, each book is a treasure trove of ideas andemotions.Third Question: Reading ComprehensionRead the following excerpt from one of the books being studied in Mrs. Li’s class and answer the questions that follow.Excerpt:“As the sun set over the rolling hills, the protagonist, Emma, stood at the edge of the cliff, her heart heavy with uncertainty. She had always been the one to make decisions with ease, but now, faced with a choice that would change the course of her life, she found herself paralyzed with fear. The sea below her, vast and unpredictable, mirrored her inner turmoil. Should she stay and fight for what she believed in, or should she sail away into the unknown, hoping for a better future?”1.What emotion is Emma experiencing in the excerpt? Provide evidence from the textto support your answer.Answer: Emma is experiencing uncertainty and fear. Evidence: “her heart heavy with uncertainty” and “she found herself paralyzed with fear.”2.What metaphor is used in the passage to describe Emma’s state of mind? Explain itssignificance.Answer: The sea is used as a metaphor for Emma’s inner turmoil. Its vastness and unpredictability reflect the overwhelming nature of the choices she faces and her inability to see a clear path forward.3.How does the setting (the sunset over the rolling hills and the sea below) contributeto the mood of the scene?Answer: The setting creates a sense of grandeur and isolation, enhancing the sense of drama and emotional intensity in the scene. The sunset adds a touch of melancholy, reflecting Emma’s heavy heart, while the sea below symbolizes the vastness of the challenges she faces.4.Based on the excerpt, speculate on Emma’s eventual decision and provide a briefrationale for your prediction.Answer: It is difficult to predict Emma’s decision definitively without further context, but given her state of mind and the imagery used, it is possible that she may choose to face her fears and stay to fight for what she believes in. This is suggested by the idea that the sea represents her inner turmoil and uncertainty, implying that she must confront these feelings rather than flee from them. Alternatively, she may choose to sail away, symbolizing a leap of faith into the unknown and a search for a new beginning.

He learned to navigate through dense forests, cross rushing streams, and even 4 the occasional wild animal.As he climbed higher and higher, the views became increasingly breathtaking. The city below seemed to shrink, and the world around him expanded. Li Ming felt a sense of freedom and liberation that he had never experienced before. He realized that he was not just hiking a mountain; he was hiking towards a new version of himself.One particularly difficult stretch of the trail tested his limits. His legs ached, his breath came in short gasps, and his mind screamed for him to give up. But something inside him refused to 5. He dug deep, found a reserve of strength he didn’t know he had, and continued on.Finally, after what felt like an eternity, he reached the summit. The view from the top was nothing short of spectacular. The sun shone brightly, casting golden rays across the landscape. Li Ming felt a sense of accomplishment and pride that he had never felt before. He had conquered not just the mountain, but also his own doubts and fears.As he sat there, taking in the beauty around him, Li Ming realized that this journey was not just about the destination. It was about the journey itself, the lessons he had learned, and the person he had become. He had discovered a strength and resilience within himself that he never knew existed. From that day on, Li Ming’s life changed. He no longer felt stuck or unfulfilled. He embraced new challenges with enthusiasm, knowing that each one would bring him closer to the person he was meant to be. And he knew that no matter where life took him, he would always carry with him the memories of that 6 journey and the lessons it taught him.Cloze Test Questions:1.

However, the only way for them to get that honey is to find a wild bees’ nest and take the honey from it. Often, these nests are high up in trees, and it is difficult to find them. In parts of Africa, though, people and animals looking for honey have a strange and unexpected helper - a little bird called a honey guide. The honey guide does not actually like honey, but it does like the wax in the beehives (蜂房). The little bird cannot reach this wax, which is deep inside the bees’ nest. So, when it finds a suitable nest, it looks for someone to help it. The honey guide gives a loud cry that attracts the attention of both passing animals and people. Once it has their attention, it flies through the forest, waiting from time to time for the curious animal or person as it leads them to the nest. When they finally arrive at the nest, the _follower reaches in to get at the delicious honey as the bird patiently waits and watches. Some of the honey, and the wax, always falls to the ground, and this is when the honey guide takes its share.Scientists do not know why the honey guide likes eating the wax, but it is very determined in its efforts to get it. The birds seem to be able to smell wax from a long distance away. They will quickly arrive whenever a beekeeper is taking honey from his beehives, and will even enter churches when beeswax candles are being lit. 【1】Why is it difficult to find a wild bees’ nest?A.It’s small in size.B.It’s hidden in trees.C.It’s covered with wax.D.It’s hard to recognize.【2】What do the words “the follower” in Paragraph 2 refer to?A.A bee.B.A bird.C.A honey seeker.D.A beekeeper.【3】The honey guide is special in the way________.A.it gets its foodB.it goes to churchC.it sings in the forestD.it reaches into bees’ nests【4】What can be the best title for the text?A.Wild BeesB.Wax and HoneyC.Beekeeping in AfricaD.Honey­Lover’s Helper三、书面表达女生失足落水,4名高中男生下水相救。

In the North Wing.23.Which underground station is closest to the National Gallery?A. Piccadilly Circus.B. Leicester Square.C. Embankment.D. Charing Cross.BFor almost two months Dominic York, a 23-year-old hairdresser, wandered about hospitals all night, wearing a white coat and pretending he was a doctor. Yesterday he proudly claimed in court that despite his complete lack of medical experience or qualifications, he had saved several people's lives. He had even been allowed to assist a surgeon during an emergency operation on a patient who was about to die on something she had swallowed.“I watched one of those TV dramas about a hospital and suddenly I felt like playing one of the roles myself. So I put on a white jacket and a stethoscope(听诊器)and walked around one of the biggest hospital in London. At first, I just watched. Once you learn how doctors talk to patients, nurses and other doctors, it's easy to take people in.” he said.One of the patients he treated was Laura Kennan. She had been knocked down by a car and fainted. When she came into hospital, York was standing over her.“He looked very professional. He told me his name was Doctor Simon. Then he gave me some sort of injection." she said. And then he suddenly cleared off when a nurse asked who he was. She didn't think there was anything wrong. "I would never have realized he was a fake if a policewoman hadn't showed me his photograph a week later. When the policewoman told me who he really was, I cou ld hardly believe my ears.”Judge Raymond Adams told York that he was "shocked and horrified,, that he got away with his deceiving(欺瞒)for so long, and then sentenced him to eighteen months in a special prison for criminal with mental disorders.“1 can only hope that this will not lead to further problems. After all, you will have considerable opportunities to study the behavior of the psychiatrists(精神科医生)who will look after you while you are there. If you try to persuade people that you yourself are a psych iatrist after you are set free, 1 shall make sure that you are given a much longer sentence.” Judge Adams warned York.24.York was proud of the fact that.A. a surgeon let him watch an operation.B. he could perform some duties of a doctorC. he had cheated doctors for so longD. people thought he could become a real doctor25.York learned how to behave like a doctor by.A. watching other doctors workB. talking to doctors and nursesC. getting some training and experienceD. observing doctors while he was a patient26.Why was Laura Kennan in hospital?A.She had swallowed something and almost died.B.She had to have an emergency operation.C.She had been injured in a road accident.D.She had lost consciousness while driving.27.The judge's remark implied that York would be more severely punished if he.A. pretended to be a psychiatristB. tried to get away from prisonC. was proud of what he had doneD. studied the behavior of the psychiatristCThe baby is just one day old and has not yet left hospital. She is quiet but alert (警觉).Twenty centimeters from her face researchers have placed a white card with two black spots on it. She stares at it carefully. A researcher removes the card and replaces it by another, this time with the spots differently spaced. As the cards change from one to the other, her gaze (注视)starts to lose its focus —until a third, with three black spots, is presented. Her gaze returns; she looks at it for twice as long as she did at the previous card. Can she tell that the number two is different from three, just 24 hours after coining into the world?Or do newborns simply prefer more to fewer? The same experiment, but with three spots shown before two, shows the same return of interest when the number of spots changes. Perhaps it is just the newness? When slightly older babies were shown cards with pictures of objects (a comb, a key, an orange and so on), changing the number of objects had an effect separate from changing the objects themselves. Could it be the pattern that two things make, as opposed to three? No again. Babies paid more attention to squares moving randomly on a screen when their number changed from two to three, or three to two. The effect even crosses between senses. Babies who were repeatedly shown two spots became more excited when they then heard three drumbeats than when they heard just two; likewise (同样地)when the researchers started with drumbeats and moved to spots.28.The experiment described in Paragraph 1 is related to the baby's ______.A. sense of hearingB. sense of sightC. sense of touchD. sense of smell29.Babies are sensitive to the change in___.A. the size of cardsB. the color of picturesC. the shape of patternsD. the number of objects30.Why did the researchers test the babies with drumbeats?A. To reduce the difficulty of theexperiment.B. To see how babies recognize sounds.C. To carry their experiment further.D. To keep the babies9 interest.31.Where does this text probably come from?A. Science fiction.B. Children's literature.C. An advertisement.D. A science report.The word advertising refers to any kind of public announcement that brings products and services to the attention of people. Throughout history, advertising has been an effective way to promote the trading and selling of goods. In the Middle Ages, merchants employed “town criers” to read public messages aloud to promote their goods. When printing was invented in the fifteenth century, pages of advertisements (ads) could be printed easily and were either hung in public places or put in books.By the end of the seventeenth century, when newspapers were beginning to be read by more people, printed materials became an important way to promote products and services. The London Gazette was the first newspaper to set aside a place just for advertising. This was so successful that by the end of the century several companies started businesses for the purpose of making newspaper ads for merchants.Advertising spread quickly throughout the eighteenth century. Ad writers were starting to pay more attention to the design of the ad text. Everything, from clothes to drinks, was promoted with clever methods such as repetition of the firm's name or product, words organized in eye-catching patterns, the use of pretty pictures and expressions easy to remember.Near the end of the nineteenth century, companies that were devoted to the production of ads came to be known as ""advertising agencies (广告商)The agencies developed new ways to get people to think of themselves as members of a group. Throughout the twentieth century, advertising agencies promoted consumerism (消费主义)as a way of life, spreading the belief that people could be happy only if they bought the "right“ products.32.What was advertising like in the Middle Ages?A.Merchants were employed to promote products.B.Ad messages were shouted out in public places.C.Product information was included in books.D.Ad signs were put up in towns.33.What does the word "This" in Paragraph 2 refer to?A. Advertising in newspapers.B. Including pictures in ads.C. Selling goods in markets.D. Working with ad agencies.34.The 18th century advertising was special in its.A. growing spendingB. printing materialsC. advertising companiesD. attractive designs35. Which of the following might be the best title for the text?A. The Story of AdvertisingB. The Value of Advertising DesignsC. The Role of Newspaper AdvertisingD. The Development of Printing for Advertising其次节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)依据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

It was 36 that Napoleon had 37 from some other cause. In 1961, a Swedish doctor examined some of Napoleon's 38 and found a 39level of arsenic, a chemical poison. Was Napoleon murdered?

Call it what you will: the service industry, the information age, the knowledge society. It all translates to a great change in the way we work. Already we're partly there, the percentage of people who earn their living bymaking things has fallen sharply in the Western World. Today the majority of jobs in America. Europe and Japan(two thirds or more are in many of these countries) are in the service industry, and the number is on the rise More women are in the work force than ever before. There are more part-time jobs. More people are self-employed. But the breath of the great change can't be measured by numbers alone, because it also is giving rise to a new way of thinking about the nature of work itself. Long-held opinions about jobs and careers, the skills needed to succeed, even the relation between workers and employers —all these are being doubted.We have only to look behind us to get some sense of what may lie ahead. No one looking ahead 20 years possibly could have seen the ways in which a single invention, the chip(芯片),would change our world thanks to its uses in personal computers, and factory equipment .Tomorrow's achievements in biotechnology or even some still unimagined technology could produce a similar wave of great changes. But one thing is certain: information and knowledge will become even more important, and the people who own it, whether they work in factory services, will have the advantage and produce the wealth. Computer knowledge will become as basic a requirement as the ability to read and write. The ability to deal with problems by making use of information instead of performing regular tasks will be valued above all else. If you look ahead 10 years, information service will be leading the way. It will be the way you do your job.56. In the new period,A. the service industry is depending more and more on women workersB. heavy industries are rapidly increasingC. people find it harder and harder to earn a living by working in factoriesD. most of the job chances can be found in the service industry57. Knowledge society brings about a great change that .A. the difference between the workers and employers has become smallerB. people's old ideas about work no longer existC. most people have to take part-time jobsD. people have to change their jobs from time to time58. What does the author mean by referring to computers and other inventions?A. People should be able to act quickly to the advancement of technology.B. Future achievements in technology will bring about big changes.C. The importance of high technology has been paid no attention to.D. Computer science will play a leading role in the future information services.59. The future will probably belong to those who .A. own and know how to make use of informationB. can read and write wellC. devote themselves to service industriesD. look ahead instead of looking backBMotorola set out a special training program for children last week with the aim of developing children's business skills and preparing them for a future as entrepreneurs.Eighty-seven children aged between 12 and 16 from Beijing and Tianjin attended the one-week training program called “Youth Discovery”directed by Motorola University's (MU)instructors and marketing specialists. The children learned about dealing with a practical problem —marketing and worked out a marketing plan by themselves. Last week 26 childrenof Motorola employees in Tianjin completed their training in the MU-Tianjin Learning Center.Through the training program, children learnt how to get information through different kinds of sources(源), determine end-user needs, make up messages of value to customers, and communicate using various means and equipment.Educators acted only as team “directors”, directing children to discover their own answers. The children gave their solutions (解决办法) to Motorola's management and their parents on the last day of the program.The children, most of whom were primary and middle school students, presented themselves freely.The students said that they preferred the open and practical way of learning.“Youth Discovery”, started by Motorola's former president Robert Galvin, designed and carried out by Motorola University, aimed to bring the talents(才能) of young people into full play and encouraged them to discover how their skills can contribute to a team to help it reach an aim.60.

Meaningless talk.DI came to live here where I am now between Wounded Knee Greek and Grass Greek. Others came too, and we made these little grey log houses that you see, and they are square. It is a bad way to live, for there can be no power in a square.You have noticed that everything an Indian does is in a circle, and that is because the Power of the World always works in circles, and everything tries to be round. In the old days when we were a strong and happy people, all our power came to us from the respectful circle of the nation, and so long as the circle was unbroken, the people were getting rich. The flowering tree was the living center of the circle, and the circle of the four quarters nursed it. The east gave peace and light, the south gave warmth, the west gave rain, and the north with its cold and strong wind gave strength and continuous power. This knowledge came to us from the outer world. Everything the Power of the World does is done in a circle. The sky is round, and I have heard that the earth is round like a ball, and so are all the stars. Birds make their nests in circles, for theirs are the same as ours. The sun comes forth and goes down again in a circle. The moon does the same, and both are round. Even the seasons from a great circle in their changing, and always come back again to where they were. The life of a man is a circle from childhood to childhood, and so it is in everything where power moves.Our places were like the nests of birds, and these were always set in a circle, the nation’s circle, a nest of many nests, where the Great Spirit meant for us to nurse our children.But the Wasichus (Indian word for “white people”) have put us in these square boxes .Our power is gone and we are dying, for the power is not in us any more. You can look at our boys and see how it is with us. Where we were living by the power of the circle in the way we should, boys were men at twelve or thirteen years of age. But now it takes them very much longer to be full -grown.67. According to the passage, the Indians .A. don't have modern tools in their homesB. refused to move from round placesC. lived in round places, but were forced to live in square housesD. lived in round places, but then decided to move into square houses68. Two things being compared in the passage are .A. the Ind ians’ past andB. the Indians’ past andC. the Indians’ old and new powerD. people and nature69. In the second paragraph the "four quarters" refer to .A. the four rooms of the Indian's houseB. the four kinds of natural powerC. the four seasonsD. the four directions70. According to the author, once the Indians moved into square houses, .A. they had to move to other housesB. it took boys more time to grow into menC. they forgot the old way of lifeD. everyone was not happyEIt is natural for customers to be interested in lower prices. But what are lower prices? Could we really have lower prices while charging(收费) more for food products?Economists frequently furnish data(提供数据) on the relationship of prices and income. But since most customers are not interested in economic reports, they do not understand why they see food prices going up each week. Prices are a result of costs plus profit(利润). If the total cost of food products goes up, it stands to reason that at least some of this increase must be passed on to the customer.Let’s consider some of these costs. The farmer must pay more for fertilizers, tools, farm labor, and so on; the processor must increase salaries and wages, pay more for machinery, chemicals, power, containers, and plant maintenance; the trucking company, the distributor, the wholesaler(批发商) also have higher costs. By the time food products reach the store to be sold to customers, all the small increases that have been added along the way must be passed on to the food merchant(商人) or the consumer(消费者). To the extent(限度)that the price charged for food increase less than the increases in disposable (可任意处理的)income, prices can be considered to be lower, not higher.Customers want and desire to know why prices are going up. It would greatly help the food merchant to have the figures ready in order to speak wisely when customers raise the question of prices. Most customers really do not know why prices are what they are, and seldom do they know anything about the small margin (赚头) of profit that is made by food markets. If these two things were understood, not only would customers enjoy the service that is provided, but they would also understand the reason for higher prices. This information can be given to customers at no cost to the merchant.71. If the prices of food products do not increase when the total cost of food products goes up, food stores .A. have to pass on the increase to wholesalersB. will make less profitC. will charge more for the service provided to customersD. have to stop selling anything72. When customers want to know why food prices are going up, they will most probably .A. read economic reportsB. work on a farm themselvesC. write to the governmentD. ask the food merchant73. To answer the second question in the first paragraph, the author will sayA. “No, if the prices charged increase less than the incr eases in our disposable income.”B. “Yes, if the porices charged increase more than the incr eases in our disposable income.”C. “Yes, if the prices charged increase less than the incr eases in our disposable income.”D. “No, if the prices charged increase more than the incr eases in our disposable income.”74. The author thinks food merchantsA. are the very people who increase the food pricesB. should not pass on the increase in food prices to their customersC. are making not that much profit though food prices are going upD. have gained a lot from the increase in food prices75. It is suggested that food merchants should .A. make the customers clear about the costs of the food productsB. prepare a report of the present economic situationC. provide the customers with more after-sale services when the prices are highD. provide more services for free to the customers when the profit margin is small第Ⅱ卷(非选择题共35分)第四部分:写作(共两节,满分35分)第一节短文改错(共10小题;每小题1分,满分10分)此题要求改正所给短文中的错误。
