Contrary to popular belief, colds are not caused by exposure to severe weather. Colds are caused by viruses (病毒) harbored in the body, and you’re better off out on the ski slopes or even waiting for the bus on a snowy day than you are in a toast warm room, surrounded by friends, co-workers, or fellow students, who just may be passing the virus around. If you feel a chill when you’re coming down with a cold, you’re already sick. A chill (寒冷) is an early symptom: it’s the cold that caused the chill, not the other way around.While the virus can spread through droplets (飞沫)propelled into the air when a cold-sufferer coughs or sneezes, surprisingly, this is not the most common route of transmission. Numerous studies have now shown that the overwhelming majority of colds are “caught” by handcontact. A cold-sufferer rubs her nose, thereby transferring the virus to her hand. Then a friend comes to visit. “Don’t kiss me,” she cautions, so the friend steps back and presses her hand. The friend then wipes her own nose or eye — and several days later is stricken with a cold. Or parents pick up their child’s discarded tissues and carefully throw them away but fail to wash their hands afterward.Cold virus also can be transferred to objects —telephones, towels, plate —and remain infectious for up to three hours. Frequent hand washing — on the part of the cold-sufferer as well as other members of the household — will minimize the spread of viruses in this way.31. According to the first paragraph, you’re most likely to catch a cold if ________.A) you expose yourself to severe weatherB) you play outdoors long when it is snowingC) you stay in a very warm room with a lot of peopleD) you wait for a bus on a cold and windy day32. If you feel a chill, it means ________.A) you’ll catch a cold sooner or laterB) you’ve already come down with a coldC) there are viruses hidden in your bodyD) the room is not warm enough for your health33. Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?A) It is generally believed that colds are caused by exposure to cold weather.B) Most colds are “caught” by hand contact.C) Cold virus will keep alive for several hours once it leaves human body.D) Cold virus can spread around only through the air.34. According to the author, the best way of avoiding catching a cold is ________.A) washing your hands frequentlyB) never rubbing your nose or eyesC) throwing away tissues immediately after useD) shaking hands with your friends instead of kissing them35. The best title for this passage might be ________.A) Colds and Viruses B) Colds and TemperatureC) Ways of Avoiding Colds D) The Spread of VirusesQuestions 36 to 40 are based on the following passage:Computer programmer David Jones earns $35,000 a year designing new computer games, yet he cannot find a bank prepared to let him have a cheque card. Instead, he has been told to wait another two years, until he is 18.The 16-year-old works for a small firm in Liverpool, where the problem of most young people of his age is finding a job. David’s firm releases two new games for the expanding home computer market each month.But David’s biggest headache is what to do with his money, Despite his salary, earned by inventing new programs within tight schedules, with bonus payments(红利) and profit-sharing, he cannot drive a car, take out a mortgage (抵押), or obtain credit cards.He lives with his parents in their council house in Liverpool, where his father is a bus driver.His computer has to pay $150 a month in taxi fares to get him the five miles to work and back every day because David cannot drive.David got his job with the Liverpool-based company four months ago, a year after leaving school with six O-le vels and working for a time in a computer shop. “I got the job because the people who run the firm knew I had already written some programs,” he said.“I suppose $35,000 sounds a lot but actually that’s being pessimistic. I hope it will come to more than t hat this year.” He spends some of his money on records and clothes, and gives his mother $20 a week. But most of his spare time is spent working.“Unfortunately, computing was not part of our studies at school,” he said. “But I had been studying it in books and magazines for four years in my spare time. I knew what I wanted to do and never considered staying on at school. Most people in this business are fairly young, anyway.”David added: “I would like to earn a million and I suppose early retirement is a possibility. You never know when the market might disappear.”36. Why is David different from other young people of his age?A) He earns an extremely high salary.B) He is not unemployed.C) He does not go out much.D) He lives at home with his parent.37. David’s greatest problems is _______.A) making the banks treat him as an adultB) inventing computer gamesC) spending his salaryD) learning to drive38. He was employed by the company because _______.A) he had worked in a computer shopB) he had written some computer programsC) he works very hardD) he had learnt to use computers at school39. He left school after taking O-level because _______.A) he did not enjoy schoolB) he wanted to work with computers and staying at school did not help himC) he was afraid of getting too old to start computingD) he wanted to earn a lot of money40. Why does David think he might retire early?A) You have to be young to write computer programs.B) He wants to stop working when he is a millionaire.C) He thinks computer games might not always sell so well.D) He thinks his firm might go bankrupt.Questions 41 to 45 are based on the following passage:The journey two naval officers made some time ago to the very deepest point on the earth makes us realize how much of the world still remains to be explored. The two men went down seven miles to the bottom of the Pacific Ocean inside a small steel ball called a "bathyscaphe" tofind out if there are any ocean currents or signs of life.It was necessary to set out early, so that the bathyscaphe would come to the surface in daylight, and so he easily found by the mother ship which would be waiting for it. The divers began preparations at dawn and soon afterwards, when all was ready, the steel ball disappeared under the surface of the water.In time, the temperature dropped to freezing-point and the men shivered inside the ball. They kept in touch with the mother ship by telephone describing how they felt. Then, at a depth of 3000 feet, the telephone stopped working and they were quite cut off from the outside world. At 30,000 feet, the men were startled by a loud, cracking noise; though, it was only one of the outer windows that had broken. Soon afterwards, the bathyscaphe touched the soft ocean floor raising a big cloud of "dust" made up of small, dead sea-creatures. Here, powerful lights lit up the dark water and the men were surprised to see fish swimming just above them quite untroubled by the enormous water-pressure. But they did not dare leave the lights on for long, as the heat from them made the water boil. Quite unexpectedly, the telephone began working again and the faint but clear voices of the officers were heard on the mother ship. After a stay of thirty minutes the men began their journey up, arriving three hours later, cold and wet through, but none the worse for their experience.41. The officers started their journey at dawn _____.A) with the intention of returning to the mother ship in twenty-four hoursB) because the sea then was calmC) when the sun was not too strongD) so that they could return before dark42.

I first heard this tale in India, where it is told as if true---though any naturalist would know itcouldn’t be.

No matter how many hours of my life I may spend reliving it, I know there is no way toprepare for the next time — no intelligent response to a gun. The fat cop was right: There is only luck.
