G28、______________________正确答案: M29、______________________正确答案: H30、______________________正确答案: KSection BDirections: There are several passages in this section、Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements、For each of them there are four choices marked A), B), C) and D)、You should decide on the best choice、Passage OneQuestions 31 to 35 are based on the following passage、Job sharing refers to the situation in which two people divide the responsibility of one full-time job、The two people willingly act as part-time workers, enough hours between them to fulfill the duties of a full-time worker、If they each work half the job, for example, they each receive 50 percent of the job’s wages, its holidays and its other benefits、Of course, some job sharers take a smaller or larger share of the responsibilities of the position, receiving a lesser or greater share of the benefits、Job sharing differs from conventional part-time work in that it occurs mainly in the more highly skilled and professional areas, which require higher levels of responsibility and employee mitment、Job sharing should not be confused with the term work sharing, which refers to increasing the number of jobs by reducing the number of hours of each existing job, thus offering more positions to the growing number of unemployed people、Job sharing, by contrast, is not designed to address unemployment problems; its focus, rather, is to provide well-paid work for skilled workers and professionals who want more free time for other activities、As would be expected, women constitute the bulk of job sharers、A survey carded out in 1988 by Brita in’s Equal Opportunities mission revealed that 78 per cent of sharers werefemale, the majority of whom were between 20 and 40 years of age、Subsequent studies have e up with similar results、Many of these women were re-entering the job market after having had children, but they chose not to seek part-time work because it would have meant lower status、Job sharing also offered an acceptable shift back into full-time work after a long absence、The necessity of close cooperation when sharing a job with another person makes the actual work quite different from conventional one-position jobs、However, to ensure a greater chance that the partnership will succeed, each person needs to know the strengths, weaknesses and preferences of his or her partner before applying for a position、Moreover, there must be a fair division of both routine tasks and interesting ones、In sum, for a position to be job-shared well, the two individuals must be well matched and must treat each other as equals、31、“Employee mitment” in Paragraph 2 refers to the employee’s ________、A) loyaltyB) qualificationC) devotionD) technique正确答案: A32、Work sharing is different from job sharing in that __________、A) it requires more working hoursB) it doesn’t matter with the unemployment problemsC) it creates more job opportunities for the unemployedD) it offers a more satisfactory salary正确答案: C33、Job sharing is popular with young mothers mainly because _________、A) they can take care of both work and familyB) they are over ideal working agesC) they seek equal opportunities with menD) they have difficulty finding full-time jobs正确答案: A34、In job sharing the partners should __________、A) be social equalsB) know each other very wellC) be intimate friendsD) have similar working experience正确答案: B35、The main purpose of the passage is to ___________、A) distinguish between job sharing and work sharingB) describe job sharing in generalC) criticize job sharing as inefficientD) discuss a way to tackle unemploymentPassage TwoQuestions 36 to 40 are based on the following passage、Taking charge of yourself involves putting to rest some very prevalent myths、At the top of the list is the notion that intelligence is measured by your ability to solve plex problems; to read, write and pute at certain levels; and to resolveabstract equations quickly、This vision of intelligence asserts formal education and bookish excellence as the true measures of self fulfillment、It encourages a kind of intellectual prejudice that has brought with it some discouraging results、We have e to believe that someone who has more educational merit badges, who is very good at some form of school discipline is “intelligent、” Yet mental hospitals are filled with patients who have all of the properly lettered certificates、A truer indicator of intelligence is an effective, happy life lived each day and each present moment of every day、If you are happy, if you live each moment for everything it’s worth, then you are an intelligent person、Problem solving is a useful help to your happiness, but if you know that given your inability to resolve a particular concern you can still choose happiness for yourself, or at a minimum refuse to choose unhappiness, then you are intelligent、You are intelligent because you have the ultimate weapon against the big — Nervous Break Down、Intelligent people do not have because they are in charge of themselves、They know how to choose happiness over depression, because they know how to deal with the problems of their lives、You can begin to think of yourself as truly intelligent on the basis of how you choose to feel in the face of trying circumstances、The life struggles are pretty much the same for each of us、Everyone who is involved with other human beings in any social context has similar difficulties、Disagreements, conflicts and promises are a part of what it means to be human、Similarly, money, growing old, sickness, deaths, natural disasters and accidents are all events which present problems to virtually all human beings、But some people are able to make it, to avoid immobilizing depression and unhappiness despite such occurrences, while others collapse or have an Those who recognize problems as a human condition and don’t measure happiness by an absence of problems are the most intelligent kind of humans we know; also, the most rare、36、According to the author, the conventional notion of intelligence measured in terms of one’s ability to read, write and pute________、A) is a

and physically weakD) does not mean that one is highly intelligent38、The author thinks that an intelligent person knows ________、A) how to put up with some prevalent mythsB) how to find the best way to achieve successC) how to obtain happiness and reject unhappinessD) how to persuade others to promise正确答案: C39、In the last paragraph, the author tells us that ________、A) difficulties are but a part of everyone’s lifeB) difficulties in life are the root causes of depression and unhappinessC) everybody should learn to avoid trying circumstancesD) good feelings can contribute to eventual academic

Attracted by the lush farmland, English and Scottish landowners settled there, and in time of famine or political unrest, the local workers suffered, while their landlords were cushioned by their wealth. The history of modern Ireland is, in fact, largely a story of antagonism and resentment between the Irish and their English and Scottish rulers.Since the 1920s, Ireland has been divided into two parts: Northern Ireland (Ulster) and the Republic of Ireland (Eire). The north is still part of the United Kingdom and is predominantly Protestant; the south is an independent republic and ismainly Catholic. The majority in Ulster accept this political compromise, but the active and mainly Catholic minority are fighting for union with the independent republic of Southern Ireland. The IRA, the Irish Republican Army, have mounted bombing campaigns in military and civil targets in Ulster and England. They have sent letter-bombs to public figures, they have shot fellow Irishmen who support the British or belong to opposing, and now equally militant Protestant groups. As a result of this, the British have stationed an army in Belfast, the IRA have been outlawed, and several of them have spent many years in prison or have died in support of their cause. Whether this level of violence and repression is justifiable, and whether the violence that could result from political change would be worthwhile are the controversial issues that divide everybody involved.31.It suggested that the central problem is the relationship between _________.A) Britain and IrelandB) Ulster and EireC) Catholics and ProtestantsD) the Irish Republican Army and Ulster正确答案: A32.This passage suggests that the central problem is _________.A) a few years oldB) about 80 years oldC) many centuries oldD) about three centuries old正确答案: C33.The word "outlaw" (Para. 2) means _________.A) prohibitB) exileC) suppressD) declare illegal正确答案: D34.Bomb attacks occur _________.A) only in EnglandB) when public figures talk about IrelandC) only in Northern IrelandD) in England and Northern Ireland正确答案: D35.The writer feels that the controversy is about _________.A) freedomB) political changeC) the use of violenceD) injustice正确答案: BPassage TwoQuestions 36 to 40 are based on the following passage.The past ages of man have all been carefully labeled by anthropologists. When the time comes for anthropologists to turn their attention to the twentieth century, they will surely choose the label “Legless Man”.Histories of the time will go som ething like this: “in the twentiethcentury, people forgot how to use their legs. Men and women moved about in cars, buses and trains from a very early age. There were lifts and escalators in all large buildings to prevent people from walking. The surprisi ng thing is that they didn’t use their legs even when they went on holiday. They built cable railways, ski-lifts and roads to the top of every huge mountain. All the beauty spots on earth were marred by the presence of large car parks.”The future history books might also record that we were deprived of the use of our eyes. In our hurry to get from one place to another, we failed to see anything on the way. Air travel gives you a bird’s-eye view of the world ― or even less if the wing of the aircraft happens to get in your way. When you travel by car or train a blurred image of the countryside constantly smears the windows. And as for sea travel, it hardly deserves mention. Itis perfectly summed up in the words of the old song: “I joined the navy to see the world, and what did I see? I saw the sea.” The typical twentieth-century traveler is the man who always says “I’ve been there.” You mention the remotest, most evocative place and someone is bound to say “I’ve been there” ― meaning, “I drove through it at 100 miles an hour on the way to somewhere else.”When you travel at high speeds, the present means nothing: you live mainly in the future because you spend most of your time looking forward to arriving at some other place. By traveling like this, you suspend all experience; the present ceases to be a reality: you might just as well be dead. The traveler on foot, on the other hand, lives constantly in the present. For him traveling and arriving are one and the same thing: he arrives somewhere with every step he makes. He experiences the present momentwith his eyes, his ears and the whole of his body. At the end of his journey he feels a delicious physical weariness. He knows that sound. Satisfying sleep will be his: the just reward of all true travelers.36.Nowadays, anthropologists tend to label men “Legless” because ________.A) people forget how to use his legsB) people prefer cars, buses and trainsC) lifts and escalators prevent people from walkingD) there are a lot of transportation devices正确答案: B37.What’s the author’s attitude towards traveling at high speed?A) It means people’s focus on the future.B) It’s a pleasure.C) It satisfies drivers’ great thrill.D) It’s a necessity of life.正确答案: A38.“we were deprived of the use of our eyes” in Para. 3 means ________.A) people won’t use the ir eyes.B) in traveling at high speed, eyes become useless.C) people can’t see anything on their way of travel.D) people want to sleep during travelling.正确答案: B39.What’s the author’s opinion about people’s trave lling?A) Legs become weaker.B) Modern means of transportation make the world a small place.C) There is no need to use eyes.D) The best way to travel is on foot.正确答案: D40.What does “I’ve been there” mean?A) I arrived there with every step I made.B) I lived there constantly.C) I drove through it at 100 miles an hour on the way to somewhere else.D) I stayed there for a long time.正确答案: CPart III Vocabulary and Structure ( 10 minutes )Directions: There are a number of incomplete sentences in this part.

Pollution is caused either by man's release of completely new and often artificial substances into the environment, or by releasing greatly increased amounts of a natural substance, such as oil from oil tankers into the sea.The whole industrial process which makes many of the goods and machines we need and use in our daily lives is bound to create a number of waste products which upset the environmental balance, or the ecological balance as it is also known. Many of these waste products can be prevented or disposed of sensibly, but clearly while more and more new and complex goods are produced, there will be new, dangerous wastes to be disposed of, for example, the waste products from nuclear power stations. Many people, therefore, see pollution as only part of a larger and more complex problem, that is, the whole process of industrial production and consumption of goods. Others again see the problem mainly in connection wi t h agriculture, where new methods are helping farmers grow more and more on their land to feed our ever-increasing populations. However, the land itself is gradually becoming worn out as it is being used, in some cases, too heavily, and artificial fertilizers cannot restore the balance.Whatever its underlying reasons, there is no doubt that much of the pollution caused could be controlled if companies, individuals and governments would make more efforts. In the home there is an obvious need to control litter and waste. Food comes wrapped up three or four times in packages that all have to be disposed of; drinks are increasingly so ld in bottles or tins which cannot be reused. This not only causes the litter problem, but also is a great waste of resources, in terms of glass, metals and paper.Advertising has helped this process by persuading many of us not only to buy things we neither want nor need, but also to throw away much of what we do buy. Pollution and waste combine to be a problem everyone can help to solve by cutting out unnecessary buying, excessive consumption and careless disposal of the products we use in our daily life.21.

This type of natural gene exchange is safe and fairly predict able.Genetic engineering (GE) involves exchanging genes between unrelated species that cannot naturally exchange genes wi t h each other. GE can involve the exchange of genes between vastly different species — e.g. putting scorpion toxin genes into maize or fish antifreeze genes into tomatoes. It is possible thata scorpion toxin gene, even when it is in maize DNA, will still get the organism to produce scorpion toxin,but what other effects may it have in this alien environment?We are already seeing this problem —adding human growth hormone genes to pigs certainly makes them grow —but it also gives them arthritis and makes them cross-eyed, which was entirely unpredictable.It will be obvious, for example, that the gene for human intelligence will not have the same effect if inserted into cabbage DNA as it had in human DNA, but what side-effect would it have?In other words, is GM food(转基因食品)safe to eat?The answer is that nobody knows because long-term tests have not been carried out.Companies wanting a GM product approved in the UK or USA are required to provide regulatory bodies with results of their own safety tests.Monsanto's soya beans were apparently fed to fish for ten weeks before being approved. There was no requirement for independent testing, for long-term testing, for testing on humans or testing for specific dangers to children or allergic people.The current position of the UK Government is that "There is no evidence of long-term dangers from GM foods." In the US, the American Food and Drug Administration (AFDA) is currently being prosecuted for covering up research that suggested possible risks from GM foods.26.

This probably meant to Casper, who is a Greenpeace clean-energy organizer, that they were lacking the support they'd need to pass. But she also believed that California, still in its crippling energy crisis, was ripe for solar.So Casper got help, employing five students from Green Corps, a Boston-based field school for environmental campaign organizers. By the end of their second month, Casper's group had assured the victory of both solar propositions. Proposition B, which won 73 percent of the vote, allows the city to issue $100 million in revenue bonds (债券) to create active-solar facilities for city agencies, without imposing new taxes on its citizens. It opens the potential for San Francisco to nearly double its capacity of power generation. Proposition H allows the city to carry out future clean-energy projects without a citywide vote each time.How did they manage this?"First off," says Casper, "the five organizers were fresh out of school and full of energy. Second, we focused on city districts we knew would turn out to vote in favor if informed." They also targeted religious groups, which, in recent years, have increasingly shown a sense of responsibility for protecting the Earth, she says.Third, they just worked hard. They planned the campaign over breakfast at 7:00 a.m. and then worked until 10 P.M., distributing 300,000 leaflets (小册子), posting 1,500 signs, calling 50,000 voters, and gaining new support. In the end, more than 200 volunteers got involved.They impressed more than San Francisco's voters. Casper says officials of other cities, including Boulder, Colorado, have approached them for guidance, and they're happy to help. "We hope to get San Diego to be the next solar city in California," she says.71."This probably meant to Casper, who is a Greenpeace clean-energyorganizer, that they were lacking the support they'd need to pass."(Para.1) Here, "they" refer to ________.A. San Francisco votersB. Greenpeace clean-energy organizersC. two solar power propositionsD. students from Green Corps72.To Casper's mind, California was ________.A. not fit for the solar power projectB. deeply involved in energy crisisC. ready for the solar power projectD. crippled by the financial problems73.Proposition B ________.A. allowed the city to carry out each clean-energy project without avoteB. allowed San Francisco to impose new taxes on its citizensC. doubled the entire country's capacity of power generationD. eased the city's financial burden in the form of $100 millionrevenue bonds74.Casper's group focused their efforts on ________.A. city districts they thought would be most likely to vote in favor ifinformedB. the five energetic organizers fresh out of schoolC. religious groups showing great responsibility for environmentD. leaflets distribution and telephone calls75.Which city is in line to be the next solar city in California?A. Boulder.B. San Diego.C. Colorado.D. San Francisco.Questions 76 to 80 are based on the same passage or dialog. Planetary (行星的) scientists are set to write the opening chapter of A Tale of Two Comets (彗星) with next Monday's launch of Contour, an unprecedented (空前的) mission that will peer into the cores of two comets over the next four years.Where ground-based astronomers (宇航员) can see only a glowing ball whose core is shrouded (遮蔽) in dust and gas, Contour will be able to pierce that veil—and spot details in the comet's nucleus only 12 feet across.For hundreds of years, comets have caught the human imagination. Butonly recently have they come within reach of science's virtual grasp—first through optical and radio telescopes, then via spacecraft.The Contour will encounter the comets in November 2003 and it promises, with a clearer picture of their structures and locations, to expand understanding of these mysterious comets. Their collisions with a young Earth are thought to have supplied the planet with water and other chemical compounds necessary to give rise to organic life, and to have altered the course of evolution.Armed with Contour's observation facilities, as well as with data from past comet flybys, researchers will be able to explore the diversity of comets arising at different stages of their life cycle. "This is an essential next step in exploring comets," says Joseph Veverka, head of Cornell University's astronomy (天文学) department and Contour's lead investigator.76.What can Contour do?A. To send astronauts to comets.B. To see a glowing ball.C. To spot the cores of two comets.D. To peer into the dust and gas.77.What's true about comets?A. Their diameters are only 12 feet.B. Their cores are hard to pierce and observe.C. They are full of water and other compound chemicals.D. They have altered the course of evolution.78.Why didn't planetary scientists explore the mysteries of cometsbefore?A. Because comets are shrouded in dust and gas.B. Because the scientists are not ready to write A Tale of TwoComets.C. Because the scientists did not have a clear picture of theirlocations.D. Because it was only recently that the study of comets became apossibility.79.What does the word "flybys" (Para. 5) probably mean?A. Flight.B. Spacecraft.D. Cores.80.What's the essential significance of Contour's mission?A. Helping astronomers have a clearer picture of comets than before.B. Having a clear picture of their structure and location.C. Exploring the diversity of comets arising at different stages of theirlifecycle.D. Obtaining data from past comet flybys.Questions 81 to 85 are based on the same passage or dialog.Are organically grown foods the best food choices? The advantages claimed for such foods over conventionally grown and marketed food products are now being debated. Advocates of organic foods—a term whose meaning varies greatly—frequently proclaim that such products are safer and more nutritious than others.The growing interest of consumers in the safety and nutritional quality of the typical North American diet is a welcome development. However, much of this interest has been sparked by sweeping claims that the food supply is unsafe or inadequate in meeting nutritional needs. Although most of these claims are not supported by scientific evidence, the great number of written material advancing such claims makes it difficult for the general public to separate fact from fiction. As a result, claims that eating a diet consisting entirely of organically-grown foods prevents or cures disease or provides other benefits to health have become widely publicized and popular among customers.Almost daily the public is surrounded by claims for "no-aging" diets, new vitamins, and other wonder foods. There are numerous unsubstantiated (无确实根据的) reports that natural vitamins are superior to synthetic ones, that fertilized eggs are nutritionally superior to unfertilized eggs, that untreated grains are better than fertilized grains, and the like.One thing that most organically grown food products seem to have in common is that they cost more than conventionally grown foods. But in many cases consumers are misled if they believe organic foods can maintain health and provide better nutritional quality than conventionally grown foods. So there is real cause for concern if consumers, particularly those with limited incomes, distrust the regular food supply and buy only expensive organic foods instead.81.The word "Advocates" (Para. 1) is closest in meaning to which of thefollowing?B.

In the years since the Second World War, and especially during the past two decades, many governments have adopted free-market economic systems, vastly increasing their own productive potential and creating myriad new opportunities for international trade and investment. Governments also have negotiated dramatic reductions in barriers to commerce and have established international agreements to promote trade in goods, services, and investment. Taking advantage of new opportunities inforeign markets, corporations have built foreign factories and established production and marketing arrangements with foreign partners. Globalization is deeply controversial, however. Proponents of globalization argue that it allows poor countries and their citizens to develop economically and raise their standards of living, while opponents of globalization claim that the creation of an unfettered international free market has benefited multinational corporations in the Western world at the expense of local enterprises, local cultures, and common people. Resistance to globalization has therefore taken shape both at a popular and at a governmental level as people and governments try to manage the flow of capital, labor, goods, and ideas that constitute the current wave of globalization. To find the right balance between benefits and costs associated with globalization, citizens of all nations need to understand how globalization works and the policy choices facing them and their societies.正确答案:current正确答案:domestically正确答案:Second World War正确答案:economic systems正确答案:potential正确答案:international trade正确答案:negotiated正确答案:Taking advantage of正确答案:standards of living正确答案:taken shapePart II Reading Comprehension ( 25 minutes )Section ADirections: In this section, there is a passage with several blanks. You are required to select one word for each blank from a list of choices given in a word bank following the passage. Read the passage through carefully before making your choices. Each choice in the bank is identified by a letter. You may not use any of the words in the bank more than once.A) define B) strengthen C) accident D) at least E) entitle F) politicians G) annual H) implicationsI) be committed to J) earnest K) increasingly L) witness M) World Economic Forum N) forum O) journalists21. ______________________正确答案:A22. ______________________正确答案:C23. ______________________正确答案:G24. ______________________正确答案:M25. ______________________正确答案:F26. ______________________正确答案:O27. ______________________正确答案:J28. ______________________正确答案:H29. ______________________正确答案:D30. ______________________正确答案:KSection BDirections: There are several passages in this section. Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A), B), C) and D). You should decide on the best choice.Passage OneQuestions 31 to 35 are based on the following passage.In such a changing, complex society formerly simple solutions to informational needs become complicated. Many of life's problems which were solved by asking family members, friends or colleagues are beyond the capability of the extended family to resolve. Where to turn for expert information and how to determine which expert advice to accept are questions facing many people today.In addition to this, there is the growing mobility of people since World War Ⅱ. As families move away from their stable community, their friends of many years, their extended family relationships, the informal flow of information is cut off, and with it the confidence that information will be available when needed and will be trustworthy and reliable. The almost unconscious flow of information about the simplest aspects of living can be cut off. Thus, things once learned subconsciously through the casual communications of the extended family must be consciously learned.Adding to societal changes today is an enormous stockpile of information. The individual now has more information available than any other generation, and the task of finding that one piece of information relevant to his or her specific problem is complicated, time-consuming and sometimes even overwhelming.Coupled with the growing quantity of information is the development of technologies which enable the storage and delivery of more information with greater speed to more locations than has ever been possible before. Computer technology makes it possible to store vast amounts of data in machine-readable files, and to program computers to locate specific information. Telecommunications developments enable the sending of messages via television, radio, and very shortly, electronic mail to bombard people with multitudes of messages. Satellites have extended the power of communications to report events at the instant of occurrence. Expertise can be shared worldwide through teleconferencing, and problems in dispute can be settled without the participants leaving their homes and/or jobs to travel to a distant conference site. Technology has facilitated the sharing of information and the storage and delivery of information, thus making more information available to more people.In this world of change and complexity, the need for information is of greatestimportance. Those people who have accurate, reliable up-to-date information to solve the day-to-day problems, the critical problems of their business, social and family life, will survive and succeed. "Knowledge is power" may well be the truest saying and access to information may be the most critical requirement of all people.31.The word "it" (Para. 2) most probably refers to _______.A) the lack of stable communitiesB) the breakdown of informal information channelsC) the increased mobility of familiesD) the growing number of people moving from place to place正确答案:B32.The main problem people may encounter today arises from the fact that _______.A) they have to learn new things consciouslyB) they lack the confidence of securing reliable and trustworthy informationC) they have difficulty obtaining the needed information readilyD) they can hardly carry out casual communications with an extended family正确答案:C33.From the passage we can infer that _______.A) electronic mail will soon play a dominant role in transmitting messagesB) it will become more difficult for people to keep secrets in an information eraC) people will spend less time holding meetings or conferencesD) events will be reported on the spot mainly through satellites正确答案:A34.Technology facilitates _______.A) sharing informationB) storing and sending informationC) providing people with easy access to more informationD) all of the above正确答案:D35.We can learn from the last paragraph that _______.A) it is necessary to obtain as muchB) people should make the best use of the informationC) we should realize the importance of accumulating informationD) it is of vital importance to acquire needed information efficiently正确答案:DPassage TwoQuestions 36 to 40 are based on the following passage.In many ways, today’s business environment has changed qualitatively since the late 1980s. The end of the Cold War radically altered the very nature of the world’s politics and economics. In just a few short years, globalization has started a variety of trends with profound consequences: the opening of markets, true global competition, widespread deregulation (解除政府对……的控制) of industry, and an abundance of accessible capital. We have experienced both the benefits and risks of a truly global economy, with both Wall Street and Main Street (平民百姓) feeling the pains of economic disorder half a world away.At the same time, we have fully entered the Information Age, startling breakthroughs in information technology have irreversibly altered the ability to conduct business unconstrained by the traditional limitations of time or space. Today, it’s almost impossible to imagine a world without intranets, e-mail, and portable computers. With stunning speed, the Internet is profoundly changing the way we work, shop, do business, and communicate.As a consequence, we have truly entered the Post-Industrial economy. We are rapidly shifting from an economy based on manufacturing and commodities to one that places the greatest value on information, services, support, and distribution. That shift, in turn, place an unprecedented premium on “knowledge workers,” a new class of wealthy, educated, and mobile peo ple who view themselves as free agents in a seller’s market.Beyond the realm of information technology, the accelerated pace of technological change in virtually every industry has created entirely new business, wiped out others, and produced a Pervasive (广泛的) demand for continuous innovation. New product, process, and distribution technologies provide powerful levers for creating competitive value. More companies are learning the importance of destructive technologies — innovations that hold the potential to make a product line, or even an entire business segment, virtually outdated.Another major trend has been the fragmentation of consumer and business markets. There’s a growing appreciation that superficially similar groups of cu stomers may have very different preferences in terms of what they want to buy and how they want to buy it. Now, new technology makes it easier, faster, and cheaper to identify and serve targeted micro-markets in ways that were physically impossible or prohibitively expensive in the past. Moreover, the trend feeds on itself, a business’s ability to serve sub-markets fuels customers’ appetites for more and more specialized offerings.36.According to the first paragraph, the changes in the business environment in the past decades can be attributed to ________.A) technological advancesB) worldwide economic disorderC) the fierce competition in industryD) the globalization of economy正确答案:D37.What idea does the author want to convey in the second paragraph?A) The rapid development of information technology has taken businessmen by surprise.B) Information technology has removed the restrictions of time and space in business transactions.C) The Internet, intranets, e-mail, and portable computers have penetrated every corner of the world.D) The way we do business today has brought about startling breakthroughs in information technology.正确答案:B38.If a business wants to thrive in the Post-Industrial economy, ________.A) it has to invest more capital in the training of free agents to operate in a seller’s marketB) it should try its best to satisfy the increasing demands of mobile knowledgeable peopleC) it should not overlook the importance of information, services, support, and distributionD) it has to provide each of its employees with the latest information about the changing market正确答案:C39.In the author’s view, destructive technologies are innovations which ________.A) can eliminate an entire business segmentB) demand a radical change in providing servicesC) may destroy the potential of a company to make any profitD) call for continuous improvement in ways of doing business正确答案:A40.With the fragmentation of consumer and business markets ________.A) an increasing number of companies have disintegratedB) manufacturers must focus on one special product to remain competitive in the marketC) it is physically impossible and prohibitively expensive to do business in the old wayD) businesses have to meet individual customers’ specific needs in order to succ eed正确答案:DPart III Vocabulary and Structure ( 10 minutes )Directions: There are a number of incomplete sentences in this part. For each sentence there are four choices marked A), B), C) and D). Choose the ONE that best completes the sentence.41.The police found no ________ of a terrorist link with the murder.A) proofsB) argumentsC) evidenceD) grounds正确答案:C42.As time goes by, his daughter is ________ beautiful.A) mostB) muchC) increasingD) increasingly正确答案:D43.The government has just drafted a law ________ foreign companies.A) virtuous toB) virtuous ofC) advantageous forD) advantageous to正确答案:D44.The lost car of the Lees was found _______ in the woods off the highway.A) vanishedB) abandonedC) scatteredD) rejected正确答案:B45.Expert say walking is one of the best ways for a person to _______ healthy.A) preserveB) stayC) maintainD) reserve正确答案:B46.The students expected there _______ more reviewing classes before the final exam.A) isB) beingC) have beenD) to be正确答案:D47.You can arrive in Beijing earlier for the meeting _______ you don't mind taking the night train.A) providedB) unlessC) thoughD) until正确答案:A48.There is no reason they should limit how much vitamin you take, _______ they can limit how much water you drink.A) much more thanB) no more thanC) no less thanD) any more than正确答案:D49.He was the only _____ of the plane crash.A) survivorB) personC) manD) crew正确答案:A50.His chief __________ is his winning smile.A) liabilityB) capitalC) assetD) accounts正确答案:C51.The topic ____________ on the crisis in these two countries.A) centersB) basisC) coreD) seats正确答案:A52.William once _____ that music was his life.

Rage is presumably an emotion resulting from survival instinct, but the surprising thing about it is that we do not deploy it against other animals. If we encounter a dangerous wild animal ― a poisonous snake or a wild cat ― we do not fly into a temper. If we are unarmed, we show fear and attempt to back away; if we are suitably armed, we attack, but in a rational manner not in a rage. We reserve rage for our own species. It is hard to see any survival value in attacking one’s own, but if we take account of the long competition, which must have existed between our own subspecies and others like Neanderthal man ― indeed others stil l more remote from us than Neanderthal man ― human rage becomes more comprehensible.In our everyday language and behavior there are many reminders of those early struggles. We are always using the words “us and them”. “Our” side is perpetually trying to do down the “other” side. In games we artificially create other subspecies we can attack. The opposition of “us” and “them” is the touchstone of the two-party system of “democratic” politics. Although there are no very serious consequences to many of these modern psychological representations of the “us and them” emotion, it is as well to remember that the original aim was not to beat the other subspecies in a game but to exterminate it.The readiness with which humans allow themselves to be regimented has permitted large armies to be formed, which, taken together with the “us and them” blind rage, has led to destructive clashes within our subspecies itself. The First World War is an example in which Europe divided itself into two imaginary subspecies. And there is a similar extermination battle now in Northern Ireland. The idea that there is a religious basis for this clash is illusory, for。

Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A), B), C) and D). You should decide on the best choice.Passage OneQuestions 31 to 35 are based on the following passage.Speeding off in a stolen car, the thief thinks he has got a great catch. But he is in for an unwelcome surprise. The car is fitted with a remote immobilizer (锁止器), and a radio signal from a control centre miles away will ensure that once the thief switches the engine off, he will not be able to start it again.For now, such devices are only available for fleets of trucks and specialist vehicles used on construction sites. But remote immobilization technology could soon start to trickle down to ordinary cars, and should be available in the UK in two months.The idea goes like this. A control box fitted to the car contains a mini-cellphone, a micro-processor and memory, and a GPS satellite positioning receiver. If the car is stolen, a coded cellp hone signal will tell the control centre to block the vehicle’s engine management system and prevent the engine being restarted.In the UK, a set of technical fixes is already making life harder for car thieves. “The pattern of vehicle crime ha s changed,” says Martyn Randall, a security expert. He says it would only take him a few minutes to teach a person how to steal a car, using a bare minimum of tools. But only if the car is more than 10 years old.Modern cars are far tougher to steal, as their engine management computer won’t allow them to start unless they receive a unique ID code beamed out by the ignition (点火) key. In the UK, technologies like this have helped achieve a 31% drop in vehicle-related crime since 1997.But determined criminals are still managing to find other ways to steal cars, often by getting bold of the owner’s keys. And key theft is responsible for 40% of the thefts of vehicles fitted with a tracking system.If the car travels 100 meters without the driver confirming their ID, the system will send a signal to an operations centre that it has been stolen. The hundred meters minimum avoids false alarms due to inaccuracies in the GPS signal.Staff at the centre will then contact the owner to confirm that the car really is missing, and keep police informed of the vehicle’s movements via the car’s GPS unit.31.What’s the function of the remote immobilizer fitted to a car?A) To help the police make a surprise attack on the car thief.B) To allow the car to lock automatically when stolen.C) To prevent the car thief from restarting it once it stops.D) To prevent car theft by sending a radio signal to the car owner.正确答案:C32.By saying “The pattern of vehicle crime has changed” (Lines 1-2. Para. 4), Martyn Randall suggests that ________.A) it takes a longer time for the car thief to do the stealingB) self-prepared tools are no longer enough for car theftC) the thief has to make use of computer technologyD) the thief has lost interest in stealing cars over 10 years old正确答案:B33._______________ is essential in making a modem car tougher to steal.A) A coded ignition keyB) A unique ID cardC) A special cellphone signalD) A GPS satellite positioning receiver正确答案:A34.Why does the tracking system set a 100-metre minimum before sending an alarm to the operations centre?A) To leave time for the operations centre to give an alarm.B) To keep police informed of the car’s movements.C) To give the driver time to contact the operations centre.D) To allow for possible errors in the GPS system.正确答案:D35.What will the operations centre do first after receiving an alarm?A) Start the tracking system.B) Contact the car owner.C) Block the car engine.D) Locate the missing car.正确答案:BPassage TwoQuestions 36 to 40 are based on the following passage.According to some individuals, if your house is built in the right position, this may affect your success in life, which seems strange to many people. However, to believers in Feng-Shui, or the art of geomancy, not only the position but also the choice of decorations and even the color of your home can mean the difference between good fortune and disaster. This art has been practiced for centuries in China and is still used all over South East Asia. Even the huge Hong Kong banks call in a geomant if they are planning to build new offices.Like many Oriental beliefs the geomant’s skill depends on the idea of harmony in nature. If there is no imbalance between the opposing forces of Yin and Yang, the building will bring luck to its inhabitants. This means that the house must be built on the right spot as well as facing the right direction, and also be painted an auspicious color. For instance, if there are mountains to the north, this will protect them from evil influences. If the house is painted red, this will bring happiness to the occupants while green symbolizes youth and will bring long life. The geomant believes that unless all these are considered when choosing a site for construction, the fortune of the people using it will be at risk.Indeed, to ignore the geomant’s advice can have fatal results. The death of the internationally famous Kung-Fu star, Bruce Lee, has been used as an example. It is said that when Lee found out that the house he was living in was an unlucky one, he followed a geomant’s advice and installed an eight-sided mirror outside his front door to bring him luck. Unfortunately, a storm damaged the mirror and the house was left unprotected from harmful influences. Soon afterwards Lee died in mysterious circumstances.Not only is Feng-Shui still used in South East Asia, but it has also spread right across the world. Even in modern New York a successful commercial artist called Milton Glaser has found it useful. He was so desperate after his office was broken into six times that he consulted a geomant. He was told to install a fish tank with six black fish and fix a red clock to the ceiling. Since then he has not been burglarized once. It may seem an incredible story, but no other suitable explanation has been offered.36.From the passage we can infer that Feng-Shui is NOT used in ______.A) JapanB) New YorkC) Hong KongD) China正确答案:A37.Geomants believe that ______.A) houses must only be painted redB) houses must face mountainsC) nature and life should be in harmonyD) green is an unlucky color正确答案:C38.Geomant s think that the reason for Bruce Lee’s death is that ______.A) he didn’t follow the geomants’ adviceB) he installed an eight-sided mirrorC) he misunderstood the geomant’s adviceD) a storm damaged the protection for his house正确答案:D39.The story of Milton Glaser shows that ______.A) colors are not important in geomancyB) geomancy is used in the WestC) geomancy is used by artistsD) the fight against crime is being won正确答案:B40.Which of the following best describes geomancy?A) It is a style of Oriental decoration.B) It is a type of painting.C) It is an ancient Chinese belief called Feng-Shui.D) It is an architectural design.正确答案:CPart III Vocabulary and Structure ( 11 minutes )Directions: There are a number of incomplete sentences in this part.

You may not use any of the words in the bank more than once.On an eight-mile stretch of Interstate 15 ten miles north of San Diego, traffic engineers are 21 an MIT-designed system which will introduce the “automated driver.” The plan calls for computers, aided by thousands of three-inch 22 spikes buried in the highway, to take complete control of the driving of cars on heavily trafficked roads. Cars will be 23 into groups of ten to twelve vehicles, only six feet 24 , traveling in unison, and controlled by computer.25 of this computerized highway have great hopes for its future. By 2010, telematics may well be 26 one of the major highways in the United States. If successful, by 2020, as the price of 27 drops to below a penny a piece, telematics could be adopted in thousands of miles of highways in the United States. This could prove to be an 28 boon as well, saving fuel, reducing 29 , decreasing air pollution, and serving as an 30 to highway expansion.A) fatality B) Promoters C) Protesters D) magneticE) apart F) installing G) alternative H) brings aboutI) inevitable J) microchips K) traffic jams L) cultivationM) incorporated into N) environmental O) bunched21. ______________________正确答案:F22. ______________________正确答案:D23. ______________________正确答案:O24. ______________________正确答案:E25. ______________________正确答案:B26. ______________________正确答案:M27. ______________________正确答案:J28. ______________________正确答案:N29. ______________________正确答案:K30. ______________________正确答案:GSection BDirections: There are several passages in this section. Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A), B), C) and D). You should decide on the best choice.Passage OneQuestions 31 to 35 are based on the following passage.You slip the key into the ignition and crank the engine to life. But before you put the car into gear, you tap a key on the keyboard mounted by the steering wheel, and your newest e-mail flashes up on the windscreen.This seductive satyr is what you get when you cross a car and a computer. Dubbed the “network vehicle”, or net-mobile, it may soon come to a driveway near you (probably the one belonging to your rich neighbor). In a net-mobile, a motorist could tap into a regional road system but also to map out a route around rush-hour traffic snags. Drivers and passengers will be able to send and receive e-mail, track the latest sports scores or stock quotes, surf the Web, and even play video games. Or so, at least, say a number of computer-industry firms such as Microsoft, Sun, IBM and Netscape.The modern car is already an electronic showcase on wheels. On-board microcomputers improve fuel economy and reduce emissions. They operate anti-lock brake systems, and on some cars even regulate the firmness of the shock absorbers. But much of the technology needed to add extra is available now. A prototype network vehicle, produced by a consortium of Netscape, Sun, IBM and Delco (an automotive electronics firm based in Michigan), was introduced at the recent annual computer industry show in Las Vegas.It not only offered such desktop-computer-like services as e-mail, but allowed a driver to use them without looking away from the road. It was operated by voice commands and projected its data on to the windscreen, using the same sort of head-up display system found in。

Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices. Click on the best choice. (20 points)Passage OneSome companies conduct work attitude values enhancement (WAVE) programs for their employees. As a newbie seeking career success, you can use these values as your own personal work attitude values enhancement principles.Pride, passion and belief are important as elements within my personal work attitude values enhancement principles. However, there is another side to these.Skills and knowledge are important to complement pride when doing your work as a newbie seeking career success. You can have a lot of pride and take personal responsibility for your work. But if you lacked the skills and knowledge to do your work well, it will not be productive. You will still not be able to obtain the desired results. Be aware of the skills and knowledge your work necessitates. Sharpen those skills. If you need to acquire new ones, make plans to achieve them. You should discuss them with your immediate supervisor. Skills and knowledge must be the backbone of your pride at work in order for you to achieve the success you seek.The second personal work attitude values enhancement principle you should learn is that passion must be led by direction. You cannot have burning passion for your work but lack the direction your passion can be guided towards. Passion is what will pull you through the toughest times at work. It gives you the energy to burn the midnight oil. It pushes you to do that little extra.However, this energy must have a direction. Without direction, your passion goes all over the place. Your efforts are not concentrated. It is not honed in on completing the priorities. Last on your personal work attitude values enhancement principle is action. Having a belief is important when seeking career success. As far as your career success is concerned, it is even more important if you could align your professional belief with that of the organization. And this belief must be backed by solid action. When your beliefs are backed by action, career success is at your doorstep. Have a plan of action on how you can help yourcompany achieve its goals and at the same time achieve your career success.If you can internalize these as your personal work attitude values enhancement principles, you will greatly increase the chance of career success. Think about these principles as a wave that pushes you to the shore of career success.21.

What is best title for this passage?A. How to Establish a Right Attitude Towards Work?B. The Work Attitude Values Enhancement PrinciplesC. How to Make Career Success?D. Complementary Principles to Career Success正确答案:B得分:2分Passage TwoI can't help but wonder if all of this is leading us down a dangerous path. The young and highly motivated turn into self-competing workaholics, often fueled by stimulants — legal (e.g., coffee), illegal (e.g., cocaine), and prescription (e.g., Provigil, 安眠药). Older folks and those who want to "have a life" look at this insanity with horror and back quietly away trying not to startled the hopped up beasts.This wouldn't be so bad if it weren't playing into professional culture more broadly. Increasingly, only those bent on workaholism are valued as employees. Those who don't push it to extremes are disregarded as lazy in many industries. There is pressure to work 24/7 and there are plenty of folks who take this seriously, even if it's not in their best interests let alone the rest of the society's. I get so ravingly mad at my (primarily male) colleagues who work 14 hour days even though they have small children that they never see. It's one thing to be a workaholic as a single 20-something; it's another thing to be a workaholic as a parent.I get to see the flip side of that one — teens starved for attention, desperate to please in the hopes of being given attention and validation.The problem is that the corporate world values workaholism. Those who do pull away from 24/7 lifestyles "because they're getting older" find that there is huge ageism in many sectors of American business. If you can't work 24/7, you aren't getting that promotion. That isn't so good for any of us and it seems like a recipe for disaster. It's one thing to get paid many millions of dollars as a sports star, knowing that you'll burn out by the end of your 20s and can then "retire". It's another thing to get paid an upper middle class wage only to burn out with no savings.Of course, I'm saying this from the point of view of a workaholic who is trying to ween herway off of that lifestyle. Or rather, is hoping to ween her way off of that lifestyle once the dissertation is over. And who realizes that she's said that at every stage like an addict — I'll do it when XYZ. But still, I can't help but wonder — is it possible to really be in the flow and have work/life balance?26. In Paragraph 1, what is the author's worry?A. Young people drink too much coffee to relieve competition stress.B. Young people are motivated to turn to drugs for stimulus.C. Old people are not in agreement with young on work attitude.D. Young people are so crazy about their work.正确答案:D得分:0分27. What does the writer mean by "have a life"?A. To completely enjoy one's life.B. To comfortably spend the rest of life after retirement.C.

In the years since the Second World War, and especially during the past two decades, many governments have adopted free-market economic systems, vastly increasing their own productive potential and creating myriad new opportunities for international trade and investment. Governments also have negotiated dramatic reductions in barriers to merce and have established international agreements to promote trade in goods, services, and investment. Taking advantage of new opportunities in foreign markets, corporations have built foreign factories and established production and marketing arrangements with foreign partners. Globalization is deeply controversial, however. Proponents of globalization argue that it allows poor countries and their citizens to develop economically and raise their standards of living, while opponents of globalization claim that the creation of an unfettered international free market has benefited multinational corporations in the Western world at the expense of local enterprises, local cultures, and mon people. Resistance to globalization has therefore taken shape both at a popular and at a governmental level as people and governments try to manage the flow of capital, labor, goods, and ideas that constitute the current wave of globalization.

Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A), B), C) and D). You should decide on the best choice.Passage OneQuestions 31 to 35 are based on the following passage.In such a changing, plex society formerly simple solutions to informational needs bee plicated. Many of life's problems which were solved by asking family members, friends or colleagues are beyond the capability of the extended family to resolve. Where to turn for expert information and how to determine which expert advice to accept are questions facing many people today.In addition to this, there is the growing mobility of people since World War Ⅱ. As families move away from their stable munity, their friends of many years, their extended family relationships, the informal flow of information is cut off, and with it the confidence that information will be available when needed and will be trustworthy and reliable. The almost unconscious flow of information about the simplest aspects of living can be cut off. Thus, things once learned subconsciously through the casual munications of the extended family must be consciously learned.Adding to societal changes today is an enormous stockpile of information. The individual now has more information available than any other generation, and the task of finding that one piece of information relevant to his or her specific problem is plicated, time-consuming and sometimes even overwhelming.Coupled with the growing quantity of information is the development of technologies which enable the storage and delivery of more information with greater speed to more locations than has ever been possible before. puter technology makes it possible to store vast amounts of data in machine-readable files, and to program puters to locate specific information. Telemunications developments enable the sending of messages via television, radio, and very shortly, electronic mail to bombard people with multitudes of messages. Satellites have extended the power of munications to report events at the instant of occurrence. Expertise can be shared worldwide through teleconferencing, and problems in dispute can be settled without the participants leaving their homes and/or jobs to travel to a distant conference site. Technology has facilitated the sharing of information and the storage and delivery of information, thus making more information available to more people.In this world of change and plexity, the need for information is of greatest importance. Those people who have accurate, reliable up-to-date information to solve the day-to-day problems, the critical problems of their business, social and family life, will survive and succeed. "Knowledge is power" may well be the truest saying and access to information may be the most critical requirement of all people.31.The word "it" (Para. 2) most probably refers to _______.A) the lack of stable munitiesB) the breakdown of informal information channelsC) the increased mobility of familiesD) the growing number of people moving from place to place正确答案:B32.The main problem people may encounter today arises from the fact that _______.A) they have to learn new things consciouslyB) they lack the confidence of securing reliable and trustworthy informationC) they have difficulty obtaining the needed information readilyD) they can hardly carry out casual munications with an extended family正确答案:C33.From the passage we can infer that _______.A) electronic mail will soon play a dominant role in transmitting messagesB) it will bee more difficult for people to keep secrets in an information eraC) people will spend less time holding meetings or conferencesD) events will be reported on the spot mainly through satellites正确答案:A34.Technology facilitates _______.A) sharing informationB) storing and sending informationC) providing people with easy access to more informationD) all of the above正确答案:D35.We can learn from the last paragraph that _______.A) it is necessary to obtain as muchB) people should make the best use of the informationC) we should realize the importance of accumulating informationD) it is of vital importance to acquire needed information efficiently正确答案:DPassage TwoQuestions 36 to 40 are based on the following passage.In many ways, today’s business environment has changed qualitatively since the late 1980s. The end of the Cold War radically altered the very nature of the world’s politics and economics. In just a few short years, globalization has started a variety of trends with profound consequences: the opening of markets, true global petition, widespread deregulation (解除政府对……的控制) of industry, and an abundance of accessible capital. We have experienced both the benefits and risks of a truly global economy, with both Wall Street and Main Street (平民百姓) feeling the pains of economic disorder half a world away.At the same time, we have fully entered the Information Age, startling breakthroughs in information technology have irreversibly altered the ability to conduct business unconstrained by the traditional limitations of time or space. Today, it’s almost impossible to imagine a world w ithout intranets, , and portable puters. With stunning speed, the Internet is profoundly changing the way we work, shop, do business, and municate.As a consequence, we have truly entered the Post-Industrial economy. We are rapidly shifting from an economy based on manufacturing and modities toone that places the greatest value on information, services, support, and distribution. That shift, in turn, place an unprecedented premium on “knowledge workers,” a new class of wealthy, educated, and mo bile people who view themselves as free agents in a seller’s market.Beyond the realm of information technology, the accelerated pace of technological change in virtually every industry has created entirely new business, wiped out others, and produced a Pervasive (广泛的) demand for continuous innovation. New product, process, and distribution technologies provide powerful levers for creating petitive value. More panies are learning the importance of destructive technologies — innovations that hold the potential to make a product line, or even an entire business segment, virtually outdated.Another major trend has been the fragmentation of consumer and business markets. There’s a growing appreciation that superficially similar groups of customers may have very different preferences in terms of what they want to buy and how they want to buy it. Now, new technology makes it easier, faster, and cheaper to identify and serve targeted micro-markets in ways that were physically impossible or prohibitively expensive in the past. Moreover, the trend feeds on itself, a business’s ability to serve sub-markets fuels customers’ appetites for more and more specialized offerings.36.According to the first paragraph, the changes in the business environment in the past decades can be attributed to ________.A) technological advancesB) worldwide economic disorderC) the fierce petition in industryD) the globalization of economy正确答案:D37.What idea does the author want to convey in the second paragraph?A) The rapid development of information technology has taken businessmen by surprise.B) Information technology has removed the restrictions of time and space in business transactions.C) The Internet, intranets, , and portable puters have penetrated every corner of the world.D) The way we do business today has brought about startling breakthroughs in information technology.正确答案:B38.If a business wants to thrive in the Post-Industrial economy, ________.A) it has to invest more capital in the training of free agents to operate in a seller’s marketB) it should try its best to satisfy the increasing demands of mobile knowledgeable peopleC) it should not overlook the importance of information, services, support, and distributionD) it has to provide each of its employees with the latest information about the changing market正确答案:C39.In the author’s view, destructive technologie s are innovations which ________.A) can eliminate an entire business segmentB) demand a radical change in providing servicesC) may destroy the potential of a pany to make any profitD) call for continuous improvement in ways of doing business正确答案:A40.With the fragmentation of consumer and business markets ________.A) an increasing number of panies have disintegratedB) manufacturers must focus on one special product to remain petitive in the marketC) it is physically impossible and prohibitively expensive to do business in the old wayD) businesses have to meet individual customers’ specific needs in order to succeed正确答案:DPart III Vocabulary and Structure ( 10 minutes )Directions: There are a number of inplete sentences in this part.

You should decide on the best choice.Passage OneQuestions 31 to 35 are based on the following passage.A strange thing about humans is their capacity for blind rage. Rage is presumably an emotion resulting from survival instinct, but the surprising thing about it is that we do not deploy it against other animals. If we encounter a dangerous wild animal ― a poisonous snake or a wild cat ― we do not fly into a temper. If we are unarmed, we show fear and attempt to back away; if we are suitably armed, we attack, but in a rational manner not in a rage. We reserve rage for our own species. It is hard to see any survival value in attacking one’s own, but if we take account of the long petition, which must have existed between our own subspecies and others like Neanderthal man ― indeed others still more remote from us than Neanderthal man ― human rage bees more prehensible.In our everyday language and behavior there are many reminders of those early strug gles. We are always using the words “us and them”. “Our” side is perpetually trying to do down the “other” side. In games we artificially create other subspecies we can attack. The opposition of “us” and “them” is the touchstone of the two-party system of “democratic” politics. Although there are no very serious consequences to many of these modern psychological representations of the “us and them” emotion, it is as well to remember that the original aim was not to beat the other subspecies in a game but to exterminate it.The readiness with which humans allow themselves to be regimented has permitted large armies to be formed, which, taken together with the “us and them” blind rage, has led to destructive clashes within our subspecies itself.

In fact, it has become a necessary and important part of the American way of life. By giving workers rapid transportation, the automobile has freed them from having to live near their place of work. This has encouraged the growth of the cities, but it has also led to traffic problems.For farm families the automobile is very helpful. It has made it possible for them to travel to town very often for business and for pleasure, and also to transport their children to distant schools.Family life has been affected in various ways. The car helps to keep families together when it is used for picnics, outings, and other shared experiences. However, when teenage children have the use of the car, their parents can’t keep an eye on them. There is a great danger if the driver has been drinking alcohol or taking drugs, or showing off by speeding or breaking down traffic laws. Mothers of victims of such accidents have formed an organization called MADD (Mothers Against Drunk Driving). These women want to prevent further tragedies. They have worked to encourage the government to limit the youngest drinking age.

You are required to select one word for each blank from a list of choices given in a word bank following the passage. Read the passage through carefully before making your choices. Each choice in the bank is identified by a letter. You may not use any of the words in the bank more than once.The car, and the roads it travels on, will be 21 in the twenty-first century. The key to tomorrow’s “smart cars” will be 22 . “We’ll see vehicles and roads that see and hear and feel and 23 and talk and act,” predicts Bill Spreitzer, technical director of General Motors Corporation's ITS program, which is designing the smart car and road of the future.24 40,000 people are killed each year in the United States in traffic accidents. The numb er of people that are killed or badly injured in car accidents is so 25 that we don’t even bother to 26 them in the newspapers anymore. Fully half of these fatalities comefrom drunk drivers, and many others from 27 . A smart car could eliminate most of these car accidents. It can sense if a driver is drunk 28 electronic sensors that can pick up alcohol vapor in the air, and refuse to 29 the engine. The car could also alert the police and provide its precise 30 if it is stolen.A) vice versa B) location C) sensors D) vastE) mobility F) mention G) duplicate H) start upI) carelessness J) fill out K) revolutionized L) smellM) Adversely N) Approximately O) via21. ______________________正确答案:K22. ______________________正确答案:C23. ______________________正确答案:L24. ______________________正确答案:N25. ______________________正确答案:D26. ______________________正确答案:F27. ______________________正确答案:I28. ______________________正确答案:O29. ______________________正确答案:H30. ______________________正确答案:BSection BDirections: There are several passages in this section. Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A), B), C) and D). You should decide on the best choice.Passage OneQuestions 31 to 35 are based on the following passage.Speeding off in a stolen car, the thief thinks he has got a great catch. But he is in for an unwelcome surprise. The car is fitted with a remote immobilizer (锁止器), and a radio signal from a control centre miles away will ensure that once the thief switches the engine off, he will not be able to start it again.For now, such devices are only available for fleets of trucks and specialist vehicles used on construction sites. But remote immobilization technology could soon start to trickle down to ordinary cars, and should be available in the UK in two months.The idea goes like this. A control box fitted to the car contains a mini-cellphone, a micro-processor and memory, and a GPS satellite positioning receiver. If the car is stolen, a coded cellphone signal will te ll the control centre to block the vehicle’s engine management system and prevent the engine being restarted.In the UK, a set of technical fixes is already making life harder for car thieves. “The pattern of vehicle crime has changed,” says Ma rtyn Randall, a security expert. He says it would only take him a few minutes to teach a person how to steal a car, using a bare minimum of tools. But only if the car is more than 10 years old.Modern cars are far tougher to steal, as their engine management computer won’t allow them to start unless they receive a unique ID code beamed out by the ignition (点火) key. In the UK, technologies like this have helped achieve a 31% drop in vehicle-related crime since 1997.But determined criminals are still managing to find other ways to steal cars, often by getting bold of the owner’s keys. And key theft is responsible for 40% of the thefts of vehicles fitted with a tracking system.If the car travels 100 meters without the driver confirming their ID, the system will send a signal to an operations centre that it has been stolen. The hundred meters minimum avoids false alarms due to inaccuracies in the GPS signal.Staff at the centre will then contact the owner to confirm that the car really is missing, and keep police informed of the vehicle’s movements via the car’s GPS unit.31.What’s the function of the remote immobilizer fitted to a car?A) To help the police make a surprise attack on the car thief.B) To allow the car to lock automatically when stolen.C) To prevent the car thief from restarting it once it stops.D) To prevent car theft by sending a radio signal to the car owner.正确答案:C32.By saying “The pattern of vehicle crime has changed” (Lines 1-2. Para. 4), Martyn Randall suggests that ________.A) it takes a longer time for the car thief to do the stealingB) self-prepared tools are no longer enough for car theftC) the thief has to make use of computer technologyD) the thief has lost interest in stealing cars over 10 years old正确答案:B33._______________ is essential in making a modem car tougher to steal.A) A coded ignition keyB) A unique ID cardC) A special cellphone signalD) A GPS satellite positioning receiver正确答案:A34.Why does the tracking system set a 100-metre minimum before sending an alarm to the operations centre?A) To leave time for the operations centre to give an alarm.B) To keep police informed of the car’s movements.C) To give the driver time to contact the operations centre.D) To allow for possible errors in the GPS system.正确答案:D35.What will the operations centre do first after receiving an alarm?A) Start the tracking system.B) Contact the car owner.C) Block the car engine.D) Locate the missing car.正确答案:BPassage TwoQuestions 36 to 40 are based on the following passage.According to some individuals, if your house is built in the right position, this may affect your success in life, which seems strange to many people. However, to believers in Feng-Shui, or the art of geomancy, not only the position but also the choice of decorations and even the color of your home can mean the difference between good fortune and disaster. This art has been practiced for centuries in China and is still used all over South East Asia. Even the huge Hong Kong banks call in a geomant if they are planning to build new offices.Like many Oriental beliefs the geomant’s skill depends on the idea of harmony in nature. If there is no imbalance between the opposing forces of Yin and Yang, the building will bring luck to its inhabitants. This means that the house must be built on the right spot as well as facing the right direction, and also be painted an auspicious color. For instance, if there are mountains to the north, this will protect them from evil influences. If the house is painted red, this will bring happiness to the occupants while green symbolizes youth and will bring long life. The geomant believes that unless all these are considered when choosing a site for construction, the fortune of the people using it will be at risk.Indeed, to ignore the geomant’s advice can have fatal results. The death of the internationally famous Kung-Fu star, Bruce Lee, has been used as an example. It is said that when Lee found out that the house he was living in was an unlucky one, he followed a geomant’s advice and installed an eight-sided mirror outside his front door to bring him luck. Unfortunately, a storm damaged the mirror and the house was left unprotected from harmful influences. Soon afterwards Lee died in mysterious circumstances.Not only is Feng-Shui still used in South East Asia, but it has also spread right across the world. Even in modern New York a successful commercial artist called Milton Glaser has found it useful. He was so desperate after his office was broken into six times that he consulted a geomant. He was told to install a fish tank with six black fish and fix a red clock to the ceiling. Since then he has not been burglarized once. It may seem an incredible story, but no other suitable explanation has been offered.36.From the passage we can infer that Feng-Shui is NOT used in ______.A) JapanB) New YorkC) Hong KongD) China正确答案:A37.Geomants believe that ______.A) houses must only be painted redB) houses must face mountainsC) nature and life should be in harmonyD) green is an unlucky color正确答案:C38.Geomants think that the reason for Bruce Lee’s death i s that ______.A) he didn’t follow the geomants’ adviceB) he installed an eight-sided mirrorC) he misunderstood the geomant’s adviceD) a storm damaged the protection for his house正确答案:D39.The story of Milton Glaser shows that ______.A) colors are not important in geomancyB) geomancy is used in the WestC) geomancy is used by artistsD) the fight against crime is being won正确答案:B40.Which of the following best describes geomancy?A) It is a style of Oriental decoration.B) It is a type of painting.C) It is an ancient Chinese belief called Feng-Shui.D) It is an architectural design.正确答案:CPart III Vocabulary and Structure ( 11 minutes )Directions: There are a number of incomplete sentences in this part.

They see a day in the not-too-distant future when all autos will be abandoned and allowed to rust. Other authorities, however, think the auto is here to stay. They hold that the car will remain a leading means of urban travel in the foreseeable future.The motorcar will undoubtedly change significantly over the next 30 years.

Cars will be 23 into groups of ten to twelve vehicles, only six feet 24 , traveling in unison, and controlled by computer.25 of this computerized highway have great hopes for its future. By 2010, telematics may well be 26 one of the major highways in the United States. If successful, by 2020, as the price of 27 drops to below a penny a piece, telematics could be adopted in thousands of miles of highways in the United States.

But before you put the car into gear, you tap a key on the keyboard mounted by the steering wheel, and your newest flashes up on the windscreen.This seductive satyr is what you get when you cross a car and a computer. Dubbed the “network vehicle”, or net-mobile, it may soon come to a driveway near you (probably the one belonging to your rich neighbor). In a net-mobile, a motorist could tap into a regional road system but also to map out a route around rush-hour traffic snags. Drivers and passengers will be able to send and receive , track the latest sports scores or stock quotes, surf the Web, and even play video games. Or so, at least, say a number of computer-industry firms such as Microsoft, Sun, IBM and Netscape.The modern car is already an electronic showcase on wheels. On-board microcomputers improve fuel economy and reduce emissions. They operate anti-lock brake systems, and on some cars even regulate the firmness of the shock absorbers. But much of the technology needed to add extra is available now. A prototype network vehicle, produced by a consortium of Netscape, Sun, IBM and Delco (an automotive electronics firm based in Michigan), was introduced at the recent annual computer industry show in Las Vegas.It not only offered such desktop-computer-like services as , but allowed a driver to use them without looking away from the road. It was operated by voice commands and projected its data on to the windscreen, using the same sort of head-up display system found in modern。

Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A), B), C) and D). You should decide on the best choice.Passage OneQuestions 31 to 35 are based on the following passage.Because Ireland is an island geographically near the mainland of the United Kingdom, English rulers have fought since the Middle-English Ages to retain political control over it. Attracted by the lush farmland, English and Scottish landowners settled there, and in time of famine or political unrest, the local workers suffered, while their landlords were cushioned by their wealth. The history of modern Ireland is, in fact, largely a story of antagonism and resentment between the Irish and their English and Scottish rulers.Since the 1920s, Ireland has been divided into two parts: Northern Ireland (Ulster) and the Republic of Ireland (Eire). The north is still part of the United Kingdom and is predominantly Protestant; the south is an independent republic and is mainly Catholic. The majority in Ulster accept this political compromise, but the active and mainly Catholic minority are fighting for union with the independent republic of Southern Ireland. The IRA, the Irish Republican Army, have mounted bombing campaigns in military and civil targets in Ulster and England. They have sent letter-bombs to public figures, they have shot fellow Irishmen who support the British or belong to opposing, and now equally militant Protestant groups. As a result of this, the British have stationed an army in Belfast, the IRA have been outlawed, and several of them have spent many years in prison or have died in support of their cause. Whether this level of violence and repression is justifiable, and whether the violence that could result from political change would be worthwhile are the controversial issues that divide everybody involved.31.It suggested that the central problem is the relationship between _________.A) Britain and IrelandB) Ulster and EireC) Catholics and ProtestantsD) the Irish Republican Army and Ulster正确答案:A32.This passage suggests that the central problem is _________.A) a few years oldB) about 80 years oldC) many centuries oldD) about three centuries old正确答案:C33.The word "outlaw" (Para. 2) means _________.A) prohibitB) exileC) suppressD) declare illegal正确答案:D34.Bomb attacks occur _________.A) only in EnglandB) when public figures talk about IrelandC) only in Northern IrelandD) in England and Northern Ireland正确答案:D35.The writer feels that the controversy is about _________.A) freedomB) political changeC) the use of violenceD) injustice正确答案:BPassage TwoQuestions 36 to 40 are based on the following passage.The past ages of man have all been carefully labeled by anthropologists. When the time comes for anthropologists to turn their attention to the twentieth century, they will surely choose the label “Legless Man”.Histories of the time will go something like this: “in the twentieth century, people forgot how to use their legs. Men and women moved about in cars, buses and trains from a very early age. There were lifts and escalators in all large buildings to prevent people from walking. The surprising thing is that they didn’t use their legs even when they went on holiday. They built cable railways, ski-lifts and roads to the top of every huge mountain. All the beauty spots on earth were marred by the presence of large car parks.”The future history books might also record that we were deprived of the use of our eyes. In our hurry to get from one place to another, we failed to see anything on the way. Air travel gives you a bird’s-eye view of the world ― or even less if the wing of the aircraft happens to get in your way. When you travel by car or train a blurred image of the countryside constantly smears the windows. And as for sea travel, it hardly deserves mention. It is perfectly summed up in the words of the old song: “I joined the navy to see the world, and what did I see? I saw the sea.” T he typical twentieth-century traveler is the man who always says “I’ve been there.” You mention the remotest, most evocative place and someone is bound to say “I’ve been there” ― meaning, “I drove through it at 100 miles an hour on the way to somewhere else.”When you travel at high speeds, the present means nothing: you live mainly in the future because you spend most of your time looking forward to arriving at some other place. By traveling like this, you suspend all experience; the present ceases to be a reality: you might just as well be dead. The traveler on foot, on the other hand, lives constantly in the present. For him traveling and arriving are one and the same thing: he arrives somewhere with ever y step he makes. He experiences the present moment with his eyes, his ears and the whole of his body. At the end of his journey he feels a delicious physical weariness. He knows that sound.

Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A), B), C) and D). You should decide on the best choice.Passage OneQuestions 31 to 35 are based on the following passage.The past ages of man have all been carefully labeled by anthropologists. When the time comes for anthropologists to turn their attention to the twentieth century, they will surely choose the label “Legless Man”.Histories of the time will go something like this: “in the twentieth centur y, people forgot how to use their legs. Men and women moved about in cars, buses and trains from a very early age. There were lifts and escalators in all large buildings to prevent people from walking. The surprising thing is that they didn’t use their leg s even when they went on holiday. They built cable railways, ski-lifts and roads to the top of every huge mountain. All the beauty spots on earth were marred by the presence of large car parks.”The future history books might also record that we were deprived of the use of our eyes. In our hurry to get from one place to another, we failed to see anything on the way. Air travel gives you a bird’s-eye view of the world ― or even less if the wing of the aircra ft happensto get in your way. When you travel by car or train a blurred image of the countryside constantly smears the windows. And as for sea travel, it hardly deserves mention. It is perfectly summed up in the words of the old song: “I joined the navy t o see the world, and what did I see? I saw the sea.” The typical twentieth-century traveler is the man who always says “I’ve been there.” You mention the remotest, most evocative place and someone is bound to say “I’ve been there” ― meaning, “I drove through it at 100 miles an hour on the way to somewhere else.”When you travel at high speeds, the present means nothing: you live mainly in the future because you spend most of your time looking forward to arriving at some other place. By traveling like this, you suspend all experience; the present ceases to be a reality: you might just as well be dead. The traveler on foot, on the other hand, lives constantly in the present. For him traveling and arriving are one and the same thing: he arrives somewhere with every step he makes. He experiences the present moment with his eyes, his ears and the whole of his body. At the end of his journey he feels a delicious physical weariness. He knows that sound. Satisfying sleep will be his: the just reward of all true travelers.31.Nowadays, anthropologists tend to label men “Legless” because ________.A) people forget how to use his legsB) people prefer cars, buses and trainsC) lifts and escalators prevent people from walkingD) there are a lot of transportation devices正确答案:B32.What’s the author’s attitude towards t raveling at high speed?A) It means people’s focus on the future.B) It’s a pleasure.C) It satisfies drivers’ great thrill.D) It’s a necessity of life.正确答案:A33.“we were deprived of the use of our eyes” in Para. 3 means ________.A) people won’t use their eyes.B) in traveling at high speed, eyes become useless.C) people can’t see anything on their way of travel.D) people want to sleep during travelling.。
