Choose the best answerIn the late 1960s, many people in North America turned their attention to environmental problems, and new steel-and-glass skyscrapers were widely blamed.Ecologists pointed out that many tall buildings in a city often cause transportation and parking problems.Skyscrapers are also wasteful consumers of electricity.In one recent year, 17 million square feet of skyscraper office space in New York City raised the highest daily demand for electricity by 120,000 kilowatts—enough to supply the entire city of Albany for a day.Glass-walled skyscrapers can be especially wasteful The heat loss(or gain)through a wall of half-inch glass is more than ten times that through a typical masonry(建筑材料) wall filled with insulation (隔热)board. To reduce the burden on heating and air-conditioning equipment, builders of skyscrapers have begun to use double-glazed panels of glass, and reflective glasses covered with a layer of silver or gold mirror that reduce the unpleasant bright light as well as heat gain.However, glass-walled skyscrapers raise the temperature of the surrounding air and affect neighboring buildings.Skyscrapers put a heavy burden on a city's public facilities, too.If fully occupied, the former two World Trade Center towers in New York City would alone produce 2.25 million gallons of waste water each year—as much as a city the size of Stamford, which has a population of more than 109,000.Skyscrapers also influence television reception, block bird flyways, and affect air traffic.In Boston in the late 1960s, some people even feared that shadows from skyscrapers would kill the grass on Boston Common (波士顿公园).Still, people continue to build skyscrapers for all the reasons that they have always built them—personal ambition, a sense of pride, and the desire of owners to have the largest possible amount of space for rent.71.The main purpose of the passage is to _____.A.explain various building structuresB.compare skyscrapers with other modern buildingsC.discuss the advantages and disadvantages of skyscrapersD.describe skyscrapers and their influence on the environment72.According to the passage, what is one disadvantage of skyscrapers that have glass walls?A.Construction time is increased.B.The surrounding air is heated.C.The building materials are very expensive.D.Such buildings lead to climate change.73.According to the passage, which aspect of skyscrapers were some residents of Boston worried about in the late 1960's?A.The influence on air traffic,B.The harmful effects on the city's plants.C.The poor reception of radio and TV signals.D.The removal of trees and grass from building sites.74.Which of the following groups would the skyscraper issue concern most?A.College students.B.Television viewers.C.Environmentalists.D.Electrical engineers.75.Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?A.The skyscrapers first appeared in the late 1960s.B.Where there are skyscrapers, television reception is poorer.C.The former two World Trade Center towers are skyscrapers.D.Skyscrapers provide more usable space than other buildings.B. Choose the words or expressions and complete the passageHow can we explain the popularity of neckties? For years, fashion historians have predicted that men would__1__wearing ties because they seemed to have little or no function. It may be the men to them because ties As long as world and business. leaders continue to wear ties, the young businessmen will__2__them and ties will remain popular. However, neckties do have a different kind of appeal. Neckties cover the buttons of the shirt and emphasize the length of a man’s body. They also__3__color and adornment (装饰)to men’s clothing, which is often plain and serious.Today, there are tens of thousands‘ of designs of ties 49 .There are ties for special__4__--hearts for Valentine’s Day, fireworks for the Fourth of July,and Santa Claus for Christmas. There are ties that tell you about a man’s__5__ --pictures of tennis rackets, motorcycles, airplanes, fishing rods, or musicalinstruments, to name a few. There are even ties for different occupations such as accountants, firefighters, and police officers. And funny ties are becoming ever more popular. You can getties covered with colorful frogs and bottles of beer. If you enjoy rock music, you can even find atie in the shape of a guitar!Funny or formal, wide or narrow, it’s__6__that ties are going to be around for a long time.1.A. fear B. mind C. forget D. stop2.A. help B. trust C. follow D. admire3.A. add B. changeC. expose D. deliver4.A. places B. ceremonies C. occasions D. people5.A. holidays B. imagesC. possessions D. hobbies6.A. clear B. necessary C. strange D. usefulC. Read the passage and fill in the blanks with proper wordsWomen in BritainIt is only seventy years since British women got the right to vote. Some people think this is the main reason women are so underrepresented in politics, trade unions and big businesses. Others feel it is s___1___ that they are much too busy doing other things. The old saying “a woman’s place is in home” may seem out of d___2___ to most people, but the old, fixed image of a woman as a supporting wife and caring mother is certainly still u___3___——one only has to watch a few television ads.In 1975 the law did not allow women to be paid less than men doing the same work. Certainly it is usually the case nowadays that women doing the same jobs as men get the same money, but generally women do not do the same job: they do different ones that o__4___ lower salaries. Thea__5__ women work in are almost all those of “service”: teaching, nursing, catering and cleaning, jobs that can be seen as an extension of the mothering role.Apart from looking after people during the day at work, women often have to take care of family at home too, which may mean they have less energy to c___6___ in the race for professional development. In almost every field, top positions are more likely to be f___7__ by men. While most teachers are women, for example, most headmasters are not. School cooks are women, head cooks are men and even cleaners tend to be watched over and directed by male caretakers.D.

Reporters are then sent to cover the events.As soon as the reporters know what to write about, they get down to work. They telephone people and fix a time for a face-to-face interview with them. Sometimes they do telephone interviews. Checking information is very important. They go to the newspaper’s own library to look up any information that they need. This is called “doing one’s homework”.At the same time, the picture editor decides which photographs will be used for the next day’s paper. All the people who work on a newspaper must be able to work fast. Reporters have to stop working on one story and start working at once on the important new one. They must find out the new information as quickly as possible. Later in the day, everything is put together at the news desk. Reporters return, type their stories into the computer and hand them to the editor.The chief editor decides which will be the most important story on the front page. Sometimes this will have to be changed if something more important happens late in the day. Word editors read the stories which the reporters have written and make any necessary changes.Finally, there is no more time left for adding new stories, and the time for printing(印刷) the newspaper has come. This is done on fast-moving printing machines. The newspapers are then delivered(发送) by truck, plane or rail. Speed is important. People w ant to buy the latest newspaper; nobody wants to buy yesterday’s.46. What is the work in a newspaper office like?A. Interesting and confusingB. Important and patient.C. Particular and necessary.D. Fast and busy.47. According to the passage, the last step of a reporter’s work is ____________.A. writing storiesB. doing interviewsC. doing homeworkD. handing stories to the editor48. The front page contents(内容) are decided by ___________.A. the importance of the eventsB. how well the stories are writtenC. the knowledge of the chief editorD. whether they are the latest49. Word editors’ work is to ____________.A. help the chief editor with the morning discussionB. decide when and how the papers can be printedC. read the stories and make necessary changesD. get together information from reporters and photographers50. The best title for this passage is “____________”.A. How a newspaper is bornB. How newspapers are deliveredC. What kind of papers readers likeD. Whose work is more importantBMost American students have said goodbye to fancy (高档的)fruits these days.In school canteens across the country , cheaper fruits like apples and oranges have taken their place. “People are afraid to spend now,” said Linda Morrow, who owns a shoe and handbag store. “They don’t know want the future will bring.”。

Besides, the LeapPad does not allow access to the internet — so it is impossible for your child to stumble across anything inappropriate.Pros: The education games are well-designed, the built-in video camera is a fun way to play at being a film director.Cons: Some of the games are shockingly expensive. And the power adaptor is not included.Best for teenagersiPad 4th generation, £399-£659The iPad is still themarket leader, and for goodreason. If the teenager in yourhouse enjoys playingcomputer games, the latest offering from Apple is the one to choose.Pros: No other tablet can compete with the near one million ‘apps’ (the name Apple created for specially-designed downloadable programs) available for the iPad.Simple to use, even for those who usually struggle with technology.Cons: Considerably more expensive than most competitors.Best for working parentsMicrosoft Surface, £399-£559Tablets are brilliantfor leisure — but what ifyou want to do a bit ofa full-sizethatandandcan buy a pretty lovely mini- keyboard for typing letters and emails,watching movies — a bonus when stuck in the airport onCon: The keyboard is an expensive add-on - costing up to £109.

Amazon Kindle Paperwhite.(B)Classified advertising is that advertising which is grouped in certain sections of the paper and is thus distinguished from display advertising. Such groupings as “Help Wanted”, “Real Estate”, “Lost and Found” are made, the rate charged being less than for display advertising. Classified advertisements are a convenience to the reader and a saving to the advertiser.The reader who is interested in a particular kind of advertisement finds all advertisements of that type grouped for him. The advertisers may, on this account, use a very small advertisement if it were placed among larger advertisements in the paper. It is evident that the reader approaches the classified advertisement in a different frame of mind from that in which he approaches the other advertisements in the paper. He turns to a page of classified advertisements to search for the particular advertisement that will meet his needs. As his attention is voluntary, the advertiser does not need to rely too much extent on display type to get the reader’ s attention. Formerly all classified advertisements were of the same size and did not have display type. With the increase in the number of such advertisements, however, each advertiser within a certain group is competing with others in the same group for the reader5s attention. In many cases, the result has been an increase in the size of the space used and the addition of headlines and pictures. In that way, the classified advertisement has in reality advertisement. This is particularly true of real estate advertising?72. All of the following facts are advantages of classified advertisement for advertisers EXCEPT that______________.A)classified advertisement charges less moneyB)it is easier to attract the attention of the target consumersC)it provides more information for the readersD)it does not have to rely too much on display type73.One of the examples given of types of classified advertisement isA)houses for saleB)people who are asking for helpC)people who are lostD)job vacancies74.Why have classified advertisements changed in appearance?A)Because people no longer want headlines and pictures.B)Because real estate advertising is particularly truthful now.C)Because the increase in the number of such advertisements means they have to be small now.D)Because there are more advertisements now and more competition among advertisers.B. Choose the words or expressions and complete the passageThe universities are schools of education and research but the main reason for their existence is not in the knowledge taught to the students or in the opportunities for the economic or social development resulting from the research findings.The true function of a university is that it keeps the _____75______ between knowledge and the real life. It unites the students with ordinary life in a creative way. The university passes on information, but it conveys the information imaginatively. Imagination is the driving force for the society’s future development. Students’ imagination is the very spirit every university should protect and encourage. A university which ____76____ to do so has no reason for existence. With imagination, knowledge is not only knowledge: it includes all possibilities. It’s no longer a____77____ on students’ memory. It’s food for thought and material for creative inventions.Imagination is not ____78____ knowledge. Instead, it is a way leading to more knowledge. It works by thoroughly studying the current knowledge and then exploring every possibility about the knowledge. In the exploration, new knowledge takes shape. Imagination enables men to construct a new vision of the world and it adds excitement to life through endless possibilities. Imaginative people are restless all along.Youth is imaginative and if the university can help preserve this precious wealth, the power of imagination can ___79_____ changes the world. Besides, it should also be made clear that imagination won’t be most effective without necessary experience. The problem of the current world is that those who are imaginative have only little experience while those who are experienced have weak imaginations. The solution left for the universities is to hold together these two factors for the whole human race to____80____ greater development and happiness.75.

A. require B.fix C.imagine D. achieveC.Read the passage and fill in the blanks with proper wordsAs further proof that you can now 3D-print anything, a company called Natural Machines has introduced a 3D printer for food.The “Foodini”,as it’s called, isn’t too different from a regular 3D printer, but instead of printing with plastics, it prints eatable ingredients squeezed out of steel capsules(容器):“It’s the same technology,” says Lynette Kucsma, co-founder of Natural Machines, “but with plastics there’s just one melting point, while with food it has different temperatures and consistencies (粘稠度).Also, gravity works a little bit (81)a________ us, as food doesn’t hold the shape as well asplastic.”At the Web Summit technology conference in Dublin, the Barcelona-based startup is (82)s________off the machine, which it says is the only one of its kind capable of printing a wide range of dishes.“In fact, this is a mini food manufacturing plant shrunk down to the size of an oven,” Kucsma said, pointing out that at least in the initial stage the printer will be targeted mostly at professional kitchen users, with a consumer version to (83)f________.In principle, the Foodini sounds like the final laziness aid: press a button to print your food. But Natural Machines is quick to point out that it’s designed to take care only of the difficult and time-consuming parts of food preparation that discourage people from cooking at home, and that it promotes healthy eating by requiring fresh ingredients prepared before printing.Nevertheless, the company is working with (84)m________ food manufacturers to createpre-packaged plastic capsules that can just be loaded into the machine to make food, even though they assure these will be (85)f________ of preservatives, with a shelf life limited to five days.The printing process is slow, but faster than regular 3D printing. Other than being capable of creating complex designs, the Foodini can be useful for recipes that require accuracy and skillfulness,like homemade pizza or filled pasta.Currently, the device only prints the food, which must be then cooked as usual. But a (86)f________model will also cook the preparation and produce it ready to eat.The (87)i________ also comes with a social element too. “There’s a touch screen on the front that connects to a recipe site in the cloud, so it’s an internet-of-things, connected kitchen appliance,” said Kucsma. Users will also be able to control the device remotely using a smartphone, and share their recipes with the community.D.Answer the questionsHave you been to zoos? Have you watched circuses(马戏团)?We see animals in zoos and circuses and treat then as trained friends. But could these lovely animals still survive in the wild? The French director Thierry Ragobert tried to give us the answer in his new movie Amazonia. In the movie, a little monkey called Sai experienced a journey back to nature.Sai was born in a circus and raised by human. All he knew was to perform and make people laugh every night. However, his life turned upside down one day. After a plane accident in South America, the little monkey found himself in the jungle(丛林).He was chased by eagles and got sick by eating some unknown plants. Fortunately, another monkey saved him from danger. Sai joined the wild monkeys and soon found that he was so different from the others. He had no skills of hunting and fighting because he had never lived in the wild before. Sai began to learn from the other monkeys since then.This movie was released on the Chinese mainland. It is the first 3D movie in history where all roles are played by real animals. The leading role Sai together with other roles in the film were well-trained animal stars from Brazil’s national zoo. The director sent the animals into the wild and filmed trained animal stars from Brazil’s national zoo. The director sent the animals into the wild and filmed their real life. “I want to know if trained animals can find their survival instincts(本能).” Ragobert says, “I expect this more as an experiment than a film.” People can also see how human activities hurt the Amazon jungle in the movie. It reminds people how and what man took from natural world. The director also says he wishes that seeing nature will help peple think about protecting its beauty.88.Is this French movie about a little monkey?89.When did Sai find himself in the jungle?90.What skills did Sai learn from other monkeys?91.Where did the roles of the movie come from?92.How did the director make the movie?93.Do you think Sai wants to go back to the circus?

If you are, your parents might have tried to do something to fix it, such as having you get an eye massage( 按摩), take medicine or even get surgery( 手术). In some advertisements (广告), people who offer these services or products often say that they can reduce or even cure (治疗) short sight.The government has issued a notice to ban (禁止) businesses from using words like “recovery” or “short sight cure” in their advertisements. The notice says that short sight cannot be completely cured with current medicaltechnology. Therefore, these advertisements could mislead children and their parents.Young people can prevent and control short sight by spending more time outside and less time in front of books or computers. People who have sight problems should first go to a hospital and let a doctor decide what to do.More than 450 million Chinese have suffered from short sight since June 2018. Short sight rates are around 30 percent for primary school students, 60 percent for junior high school students and 80 percent for senior high school students. This is likely because students spend a lot of time reading books and using electronic devices.To reduce short sight among young people, the government made a new plan last August. The plan is designed to limit the amount of time children spend playing video games, as well as limit the production of new video games.26.Why do some people say that they can cure short sight ?A.They want to show off their high-leveled skills.B.They want to sell more products and services.C.They want to share their medical technology.27.Advertisements with the word “ ” will be banned by the government.A.Recovery B.eyesight C.short sight28.If you have a sight problem, what should you do first?A.Get surgery.B.Ask a doctor for advice.C.Take some medicine.29.Which group has the highest short sight rate?A.Primary school students.B.Junior high school students.C.Senior high school students.30.From the last paragraph, what can we know?A.Students should be stopped from using mobile phones.B.Students in lower grades are more likely to get short sight.C.Production of new video games will be limited.DWhat are you holding in your hand while you are taking the exam? Right. A pen.Though it is small, the pen has changed the history, improved the trade of countries, recorded events, carried news, and done far more work for human beings than all other tools(工具).Progress without it would have been almost impossible. The invention of the wheels, the introduction ofsteam engine(蒸汽机), the use of electricity, all these have changed the lives of millions of people, but the pen has done more. It has prepared the way for all progress and development of the society.In the past the pen did all the work if you wanted to keep any writing for some time. The lawyers (律师) took up their pens and wrote the law of the country from the days when papyrus(纸莎草纸) was first used. The most famous letters in the world were written with a pen. It was with a pen that the greatest thinkers of all time wrote down their thoughts.The pen is very utilitarian. We cannot write a letter or buy a house without our pen. An agreement is worthless till our name is written with a pen. The writers encourage the world with it. The students take their exams with it as well.Our coming into the world is recorded with a pen. Before we have been at school, our name is written on the name list with a pen. A pen records the important events in our life.Let us remember that we hold in our hand the most powerful tool which man owns. The pen is a magic tool. Whenever you use it, enjoy it.31.The pen can do many things EXCEPT .A.change the history B.carry news C.replace all other tools32.In the third paragraph, “it ” refers to(指代) .A.the pen B.the steam engine C.the invention of wheels33.The lawyers started to write the law of the country .A.before their thoughts were changedB.when papyrus was first usedC.as soon as they recorded their names34.The underlined word “utilitarian” in the passage means “ ” .A.useful B.boring C.special35.What is the best title for this passage?A.A Powerful Tool B.An Important Law C.A Valuable RecordEBig data(数据) is a lot of sets of information that are put together so they can be used by a computer program.The computer program looks for different kinds of answers in the data. Big data can have different kinds of information from many sources, such as information that comes from schools, social media sites, companies and governments. One set of data can have people’s names and addresses. Another set can have what they like, where they go to school, and how much time they spend on the computer.Big data can be used in many ways. The government uses it to understand how many people travel on buses or trains. This information is then used to make bus or train systems better. Some schools use big data to understand which children may need help in class. The teacher can then give certain students more help or support so those students can succeed in school. Companies use big data, too. It helps them understand who buys their products. For example, one company uses weather data to see when people eat the most ice cream.Big data can be used for good reasons. Some hospitals use big data to predict if a baby who is born too early will get sick. The hospital can then take steps to take care of that baby so he or she does not get sick. Big data can also be used for bad reasons. It can be used to predict which kinds of people are likely to break the law or hurt others, even if they have not done anything wrong.How can big data be used for good and bad things? It is because the computer programs used to look at big data and understand it are written by people. People think a certain way. Because they think a certain way, they build a model of those ideas. These ideas are then used to look at the data. Sometimes, these ideas are helpful for people or businesses. Other times, bad ideas can cause problems for certain groups of people.36.What can we know from Paragraph 1?A.The computer program can’t look for anything in the data.B.Big data can have different kinds of information from social media sites.C.We are not able to have people’s names and addresses in the data.37.What does one company use weather information to do?A.To help children in need.B.To know when people will visit the hospital.C.To understand when people will need ice cream.38.What is the main idea of Paragraph 3 ?A.Big data can be used for good reasonsB.We can use big data to prevent babies from getting sick.C.Big data can be used for both good and bad reasons.39.What does the passage mainly tell us?A.what big data is and how it is usedB.what schools and hospitals people likeC.where important data is collected and stored40.The overall tone (总基调) of this reading is .A.sad and personal B.scientific and informative C.informative but silly二、补全短文6选5There are some skills for students to listen to the teacher in class, which means you’re going to have to practice it. Just as you would have to practice playing basketball to be a better player, you also have to practice listening. How to listen in school? 41..One of the things you need to do is to make sure that your mind doesn’t wander(漫游). It’s easy to start thinking about other things, especially when you’re not interested in the subject. 42..Next, listen to the main ideas. If you want to catch every little piece of information, you’ll feel tired and bored.43.. Not only does this show respect to the teacher, it also helps prevent your mind from wandering.44..Or it could just be someone talking to their neighbors who shouldn’t be. It can even be some birds outside the classroom window, or a group of kids who are talking loudly as they pass the door to your room.Finally, you need to take notes because you will not remember everything the teacher said. You’ll have to take down the notes so that you can study it after class. 45..Listening isn’t always easy, but if you follow these simple steps, you’ll be much more successful in your classes.A.Here are some suggestionsB.You’ll also need to look at the teacherC.You don’t need to take too many notes in classD.It might be a friend who is trying to pass you a noteE.Taking notes also makes you pay attention to the classF.So make yourself pay attention to what the teacher is saying三、完型填空Zhang Peng is a Chinese driver in Xi’an (西安).

I started learning French when I was 10 years old. But my whole experience with the language was in the classroom. All of that changed, however, during my last summer of high school. As a17-year-old girl, I flew across the country by myself for the first time! I headed for Quebec to live in the province with a French-speaking host family, who didn’t speak any English. And I would learn French at a local school.On the first day of school, all of us students were given a test to determine(测定)our language level. We were required to speak only French all summer.I made every effort to communicate in a second language by making new friends, seeing movies and even ordering food from restaurants in French. Though I couldn’t understand most of it at the very beginning, the whole experience was exciting and refreshing.On weekends, my classmates and I took trips to different places around the province. On one trip, we went whale watching on the St. Lawrence River. Even though it was raining, we could see huge whales swimming around our boat. The most memorable part of our trip was a visit to historic Quebec City. I walked along the stone streets, took pictures of the European-style(欧式的)buildings, and learned some stories there.Finally my efforts paid off! At the end of the summer, I was able to communicate pretty well. I couldn’t wait to go back to school and talk with my French teacher. Being fully immersed(沉浸)in a French-speaking environment was a valuable learning experience. And it could be the main reason for my improvement in French.66.When did the writer start learning French?__________________________________________________67.How did the local school determine the students’ language level?__________________________________________________68.Did the writer enjoy the experience of communicating in French?__________________________________________________69.What did the writer think of the visit to historic Quebec City?__________________________________________________70.What could be the main reason for the writer’s improvement in French?__________________________________________________七、语篇翻译Every year, US magazine Time picks the best inventions of the year.

I was left wondering ifpeople 2 me and saw only happy teeth.Later that day at home, I began to 3 my teeth again. I felt upset. I thought my life would be somehow better if my teeth were not happy. How I wanted the perfect teeth that everyone else seemed to have!Of course, Mom 4 everything. She has lived her entire life with happy teeth, and tried to convince me that there was nothing to worry about. When I refused to listen, she told me I could get the surgery to close the gap if it was that important. "Let's be 5 , though," she said. "Ifeveryone got surgeries to become pretty, everyone would be exactly the same. There is beauty in differences."Her 6 made me consider my teeth seriously. the thought of losing my gap was more terrible than the reality that people were going to notice it.

Choose the best answerIn the late 1960s, many people in North America turned their attention to environmental problems, and new steel-and-glass skyscrapers were widely blamed.Ecologists pointed out that many tall buildings in a city often cause transportation and parking problems.Skyscrapers are also wasteful consumers of electricity.In one recent year, 17 million square feet of skyscraper office space in New York City raised the highest daily demand for electricity by 120,000 kilowatts—enough to supply the entire city of Albany for a day.Glass-walled skyscrapers can be especially wasteful The heat loss(or gain)through a wall of half-inch glass is more than ten times that through a typical masonry(建筑材料) wall filled with insulation (隔热)board. To reduce the burden on heating and air-conditioning equipment, builders of skyscrapers have begun to use double-glazed panels of glass, and reflective glasses coveredwith a layer of silver or gold mirror that reduce the unpleasant bright light as well as heat gain.However, glass-walled skyscrapers raise the temperature of the surrounding air and affect neighboring buildings.Skyscrapers put a heavy burden on a city's public facilities, too.If fully occupied, the former two World Trade Center towers in New York City would alone produce 2.25 million gallons ofwaste water each year—as much as a city the size of Stamford, which has a population of more than 109,000.Skyscrapers also influence television reception, block bird flyways, and affect air traffic.In Boston in the late 1960s, some people even feared that shadows from skyscrapers would kill the grass on Boston Common (波士顿公园).Still, people continue to build skyscrapers for all the reasons that they have always built them—personal ambition, a sense of pride, and the desire of owners to have the largest possible amount of space for rent.71.The main purpose of the passage is to .A.explain various building structurespare skyscrapers with other modern buildingsC.discuss the advantages and disadvantages of skyscrapersD.describe skyscrapers and their influence on the environment72.According to the passage, what is one disadvantage of skyscrapers that have glass walls?A.Construction time isincreased.B.The surrounding air isheated.C.The building materials are very expensive.D.Such buildings lead to climate change.73.According to the passage, which aspect of skyscrapers were some residents of Boston w orried about in the late 1960's?A.The influence on air traffic,B.The harmful effects on the city's plants.C.The poor reception of radio and TV signals.D.The removal of trees and grass from building sites.74.Which of the following groups would the skyscraper issue concern most?A.College students.B.Television viewers.C.Environmentalists.D.Electricalengineers.75.Which of the following is NOT true according to thepassage?A.The skyscrapers first appeared in the late 1960s.B.Where there are skyscrapers, television reception is poorer.C.The former two World Trade Center towers areskyscrapers.D.Skyscrapers provide more usable space thanother buildings.B.Choose the words or expressions and complete the passageHow can we explain the popularity of neckties? For years, fashion historians have predicted that men would 1 wearing ties because they seemed to have little or no function. It may be the men to them because ties As long as world and business. leaders continue to wear ties, the young businessmen will 2 them and ties will remain popular. However, neckties do have a different kind of appeal. Neckties cover the buttons of the shirt and emphasize the length of a man’s body. They also 3 color and adornment (装饰)to men’s clothing, which is often plain and serious.Today, there are tens of thousands‘ of designs of ties 49 .There are ties for special 4 --hearts for Valentine’s Day, fireworks for the Fourth of July,and Santa Claus for Christmas. There are ties that tell you about a man’s 5--pictures of tennis rackets, motorcycles, airplanes, fishing rods, or musicalinstruments, to name a few. There are even ties for different occupations suchas accountants, firefighters, and police officers. And funny ties are becoming ever more popular. You can get ties covered with colorful frogs and bottles of beer. If you enjoy rock music,you can even find a tie in the shape of a guitar!Funny or formal, wide or narrow, it’s 6 that ties are going to be around for a long time.1.
