Well, just switch on the television. That’s fine for most of us, but people couldn’t do so 20 or 30 years age. A visit to the cinema was “an evening out,” a film was something special. Young people still go to the cinema often. Children watch a lot of television. Films and film stars are a strong force in our lives. So it is surprising how little film education there is in schools. Why don’t more children learn how films are made, and why they are made? The best film education is when children make a film of their own.This is not too difficult. Three things are important –the cost, the idea of the film, and organization. A 4-minute film can cost as little asよ10. Schools can hire the necessary equipment. They can also borrow films that other children have made. This helps them to see what is possible in a short film. Children will be making the film, so the main ideas for the film must come form them. When these have been agreed, the organization begins. Someone must Write the film and plan the filming. Some children will be actors, others camera men, lighting men, technicians and so on. They all have to practice a lot before the film itself is made. They learn a great deal about the technical problems of films, and about themselves.33.A film was once something special because ________.A)people had to go to the cinema B) television was not so popular as nowC) people didn’t have to leave the house D) there weren’t many films 20 or 30 years ago34.

Of course we have never been able to predict exactly what the weather will be like, but now strange weather patterns are seriously affecting many parts of the world. For example, droughts (旱灾) in Mexico and Brazil have recently caused great crop losses and in the United States they have even had to make their own snow for the Winter Olympics!Scientists have found that the cause of this strange weather is that the air circulation pattern has changed and is now more variable than earlier in the twentieth century. This means thatdifferent regions of the world get long spells (持续时间) of the same type of weather, whether hot , cold, wet or windy.However, weather experts have different views about why this has happened. One theory is that the temperature of the sea has increased. Another is that man’s activities on earth have disturbed the balance of nature.Whatever the cause, the economics of many countries in the world depend upon the weather. And until we know exactly what effect man’s activities are having on the weather, we cannot make changes which might help. So for the moment the only answer is …wait and see !38.Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the first paragraph?A) We have never predicted the weatherB) Man is now able to control the weatherC) Strange weather has appeared only in some North American countriesD) It has always been impossible for man to predict the weather accurately.39.The strange weather patterns on the earth can he best described as ________.A) steady and balanced B) changeable but predictableC) likely to cause serous disasters D) unpredictable but favorable to man40.

Its main goal is to improve living conditions for poor people throughout the world. Last year, it provided more than seventeen-thousand-million dollars in loans to developing countries to help end poverty.The money went to efforts like debt reduction for some of the poorest countries in the world. That program was designed to increase debt assistance and provide it faster than in the past. As a result, twenty-three countries received debt assistance last year as compared to seven countries the year before.The World Bank does more than just provide loans, however. It believes that continued poverty reduction comes from investing in the people of a country –especially through education and health programs.The World Bank employs engineers, economists, public policy experts and social scientists to create these kinds of programs. These professionals also provide developing countries with the necessary technical help to carry out the programs. The Bank has helped to make great progress in developing nations, where life expectancy (寿命) has increased and baby and child deaths havedecreased, and more adults now can read than in the past.However, protesters have held large demonstrations at recent World Band meetings. Opponents say Bank programs make industrial nations richer and developing nations poorer. Others say the organization’s activities result in environmental damage.43.The World Bank aims mainly at ________.A)helping poor countries better their living conditionsB) becoming the largest supplier of development assistanceC) paying debts for some of the poorest countries in the worldD) providing loans for developing countries in order to make profitsst year the World Bank offered debt assistance to ________.A)fewer poor countries B) fewer rich countriesC) more rich countries D) more poor countries45.Which of the following is probably NOT the way that the World Bank helps a country?A)Creating health programs.

He utilizes the facts he observes to the fullest extent. For example, trained observes obtain a very large amount of information about a star (e.g. distance, mass, size, rate of movement etc.) mainly from the accurate analysis of the simple lines that appear in a spectrum (光谱).He is skeptical (怀疑的) 0 he does not accept statements which are not based on the most complete evidence available –and therefore rejects authority as the sole basis for truth. Scientists always check statements and make experiments carefully and objectively to prove them.Furthermore, he is not only critical of the work of others, but also of his own, since he knows that man is the least reliable of scientific instruments and that a number of factors tend to disturb objective investigation.Lastly, he is highly imaginative since he often has to look for relationships in data which are not only complex but also frequently incomplete. Furthermore, he needs imagination if he wants to make hypotheses（假设）of how processes work and how events take place. These seem to be some of the ways in which a successful scientist thinks and acts.48.What quality of a good observer is NOT mentioned in Paragraph 1?A) Intelligence B) Patience. C) Persistence.
