28、 READING COMPREHENSIONRead the two passages and choose the most likely answer to each of the questions. And write the letter corresponding to your choice on the answer sheet. (2 points each, 20 points in all)Passage 1The hottest issue that has captured the attention of everyone across the globe is t

29、he issue of Global Warming. After examining different researches and observations very carefully, it has been concluded that the overall temperature of the Earth is rising. Solid scientific findings have turned that from a mere theory to a harsh reality. And the worst part of this is that the bad ef

30、fects of rising temperatures on eco-systems have already started to appear.In a global movement to reduce carbon dioxide emissions into the atmosphere many initiatives are being taken both at private and government level. Many developed nations in the world have already started producing energy from

31、 eco-friendly means like solar, wind and thermal power. All these environment friendly sources of energy are also called green energy or greentechnology. With the use of green technology, efforts are underway to reduce the utilization of fossil fuels to produce energy. Several “Green Technologies” l

32、ike water purification, recycling, sewerage and solid waste treatment and renewable energy are being successfully employed to achieve goals.Many worldwide and global organizations are working with great efforts in order to conserve our environment and reduce the effects of Global Warming. But as an

33、individual, you can also contribute by not contributing towards Global Warming. Several environmental organizations are promoting the use of energy saving and eco-friendly products. By choosing these “Green products” and refusing to use the old products which posed a threat to the atmosphere, each i

34、ndividual can also play a significant role.Most manufacturing companies have started to produce eco-friendly and Green products for customers in order to become a part of the solution. Eco-friendly cars also known as “hybrid cars” are being manufactured on a limited scale to reduce carbon dioxide em

35、issions. Similarly many Environment friendly electronics and home appliances are available in the markets which are also affordable. These Green electronics have their power sources in solar and thermal power which is perfectly safe for the environment.Green products like solar chargers and energy s

36、aver bulbs not only give better results by using less energy but they are also low-cost. Water saving spout is a great alternative to a normal tap, as it hugely reduces the waste of water. Its thermal censors allow the water to flow only when a human hand is under it and helps save up to 70% of norm

37、al water usage. Other green electronics include environmental air and water filters, solar battery chargers, energy saving kitchen appliances, vacuum cleaners and other home appliances that use less energy.Each and every individual, irrespective of race and nationality, must unite and contribute to

38、reduce Global Warming. Even if we cannot make a big contribution, by ensuring the use of Green products we can at least cease to be a part of the problem. The threat that Global Warming poses is in fact directed towards each and every human and animal living on Earth. By adopting Green living we can

39、 help save the Earth, which is by far the most beautiful place in the whole Universe.41. According to the passage, Global Warming has aroused peoples attention because _ .A. it has gradually changed peoples way of livingB. many scientists have warned people of its dangerC. it has brought harmful eff

40、ects on the environmentD. many governments have taken actions against it42. What does the author try to emphasize in paragraph 3?A. The importance of organizations work.B.

Global Warming is getting more and more serious.B. We must do everything we can to save our planet.C. All nations should unite to stop Gl

43、obal Warming.D. Everyones effort is needed to cope with Global Warming.Passage 2When seventh graders in Stockton took a field trip to see elephant seals, they didnt even step outside their school. Instead, with the help of a projector and a video camera, the students teleconferenced with a state par

44、k guide on the California coast.Across a distance of 100 miles, students on the so-called “virtual field trip” got to talk with a guide, watch seals throw sand on themselves, and hear the beasts belch and bark. “If you cant go somewhere, this can be the next best thing,” says Craig Wedegaertner, “or

45、, it can be used to prepare students before they go there.”As the days grow long and the school calendar short, field trip season is in full swing. But with fuel prices rocketing, some schools are discovering virtual field trips as a cost-effective way to add newor farther afieldexcursions.As of las

46、t month, more than 1,125,000 students have participated in virtual field trips organized through the CILC (Center for Interactive Learning and Collaboration) website alone. Some 150 institutionsfrom National Aeronautics and Space Administration to the Bronx Zoolist trips on the site, and each month

47、sees another three or four additions.The technology has been around for years, but its only now gaining widespread adoption in classrooms, says Ms. Blangkenbaker. There are several reasons: more schools with broadband, wider options for trips, rising costs for travel, and falling prices for teleconf

48、erence systems. “With this technology, you have erased the geographic boundaries of your field trip experience with one$1,500 to $5,000 expenditure (on equipment),“ she says.When Pluto was demoted as a planet, Cheryl Dultzs set up a teleconference with a NASA educator who explained the reasons for t

49、he demotion to her third grade class in Citrus Heights, Calif. Like many proponents of the trend, she dislikes the term “virtual field trip” because it suggests that virtual trips might replace, rather than supplement, traditional trips. “It would never take the place of a field trip, and in fact, I

50、 take as many field trips as I did before,” says Ms. Dultz. “I use the tool as an opportunity to have my students interact with experts in the field.”Thats what organizations hosting virtual field trips are hoping. California State Parks, for instance, set up the elephant seal trip to introduce a ne

51、w, more diverse generation to the parksand spur interest in eventually visiting. “The goal is laudable (值得称道的) and part of pioneering efforts by park systems across the country to reverse declining attendance,” says Richard Louv, author of Last Child in the Woods.“The problem is I can see school dis

52、tricts say, Why should we pay for buses if we can just do this?” he says. “Classroom learning about nature is terrific, including a virtual field trip. But I would not classify that as experience. What kids are missing now is not information. What they need most is the hands-dirty, feet-wet experien

53、ce in nature.”Virtual field trips, by comparison, are often free once the school invests in the equipment. The cost of one teleconferencing system is only slightly higher than that of busing two classes to see those elephant seals in person. But Dr. Small emphasizes that he doesnt anticipate reducin

54、g traditional trips. He still plans to send his students to the state capitol. But the students might later do a teleconference with their state representative.Beyond cost, virtual trips can often be more focused and easily aligned to educational objectives, says Small and others. “Take the kids to

55、the zoo and they are all over the place. Take them to the Bronx Zoo, virtually, and they can go behind the scenes and see the hairs in a buffalos nose,” says Blankenbaker.46. What is the meaning of“virtual field trip” according to the context?A. A trip with a guide. B. A trip taken online.C. A trip

56、to a far away place. D. A trip to the place you like.47. What does Ms. Dultz think of virtual field trips?A. Students will learn more in virtual field trips.B. Virtual field trips are of little help to students.C. Virtual field trips shouldnt replace traditional trips.D. Students enjoy virtual field

57、 trips more than traditional trips.48. Whats one of the advantages of traditional trips over virtual field trips?A. Schools spend less money on traditional trips.B. Traditional trips offer students real experience.C. Traditional trips do notrequire high technology.D. Students can be better prepared

58、before traditional trips.49. Who holds the idea that virtual field trips provide students with more detailed knowledge than traditional trips?A. Craig Wedegaertner. B. Ms. Blangkenbaker.C. Richard Louv. D. Dr. Small.50. What is the most important reason for the author to write this passage?A. To pro

59、mote new technologies in virtual field trips.B. To encourage more people to take virtual field trips.C. To teach schools to organize both traditional and virtual field trips.D. To introduce virtual field trips as a supplement to traditional trips.V. WORD DERIVATIONComplete each of the following sent

141、2分，共20分)Read the two passages and answer the questions. (20 points)Passage OneIn a family where the roles of men and women are not sharply separated and where many household tasks are shared to a greater or lesser extent, notions of making superiority are hard to maintain. The pattern of sharing in

142、tasks and in decisions makes for equality, and this in turn leads to further sharing.In such a home, the growing boy and girl learn to accept that equality more easily than their parents and to prepare more fully for participation in a world characterized by cooperation rather than by the “battle of

143、 sexes”.In the process goes too far and mans role is regarded as less important and that has happened in some caseswe are as badly off as before, only in reverse. It is time to reassess the role of the man in the American family. We are getting a little tired of “Momism” but we dont want to exchange

144、 it for a “neo-Popism”. What we need, rather, is the recognition that bringing up children involves a partnership of equals. There are signs that psychiatrists, psychologists, social workers, and specialists on the family are becoming more aware of the part men play and that they have decided that w

145、omen should not receive all the credits nor all the blame. We have almost given up saying that a womans place is in the home. We are beginning, however, to analyze mans place in the home and to insist that he does have a place in it. Nor is that place irrelevant to the healthy development of the chi

146、ld. The family is a cooperative enterprise for which it is difficult to lay down rules, because each family needs to work out its own ways for solving its own problems. Excessive authoritarianism(权利主义) has unhappy consequences, whether it wears skirts or trousers, and the ideal of equal rights and e

147、qual responsibilities is pertinent (与.有关) not only to a healthy family.41. Sharing tasks and decisions in a family leads to _.A. momism B. neo-popism C. inequality D. further sharing42.If a boy or girl has grown up in a home with sharing tasks and decisions, he or she will probably_.A. believe that

148、life is a “battle of sexes”.B. accept equality as their parents did.C. prepare more fully for participation in a cooperative world.D. insist that man has a place in the home.43. According to the author, mans role in the American family is _.A. less important than womansB. equal to womansC. irrelevan

149、t to the healthy development of the childD. hard to maintain44. Psychiatrists, psychologists, social workers and specialists on the family _.A. are paying increased attention to mans place in the home.B. suggest that we exchange “Momism” for a “neo-popism”.C. give all the credits to and blames to wo

150、men.D. give all the credits to and blames to men.45. The ideal of equal rights and equal responsibilities is _.A. related to either a healthy democracy or a healthy familyB. related to a healthy family as well as healthy democracyC. related to neither a halthy democracy nor a healthy familyD. none o

151、f the abovePassage TwoCulture is one of the most challenging elements of the international marketplace. The characteristic of the learned behavior patterns of the members of a given society is constantly shaped by a set of dynamic variables: language, religion, values and attitudes, manners and cust

152、oms, aesthetics, technology, education, and social institutions.To cope with this system, an international manager needs both factual and interpretive knowledge of culture. To some extent, the factual knowledge can be learned; its interpretation comes only through experience.The most complicated pro

153、blems in dealing with the cultural environment stem from the fact that one cannot learn cultureone has to live it. Two schools of thought exist in the business world on how to deal with cultural diversity. One is that business is business the world around, following the model of Pepsi and McDonalds.

154、 In some cases, globalization is a fact of life; however, cultural differences are still far from converging(融合)The other school proposes that companies must tailor business approaches to individual cultures. Setting up policies and procedures in each country has been compared to an organ transplant

155、; the critical question centers around acceptance or rejection. The major challenge to the international manager is to make sure that rejection is not a result of cultural myopia (近视) or even blindness.Fortune examined the international performance of a dozen large companies that earn 20 percent or

156、more of their revenue overseas. The internationally successful companies all share an important quality: patience. They have not rushed into situations but rather built their operations carefully by following the most basic business principles. These principles are to know your adversary, know your

157、audience, and know your customer.46. According to the passage, which of the following is true?A. All international managers can learn culture.B. Business diversity is not necessary.C. Views differ on how to treat culture in business world.D. Most people do not know foreign culture well.47. According

158、 to the author, the model of Pepsi, _.A. is in line with the theories of the school advocating the business is business the world around.B. is different from the model of McDonalds.C. shows the reverse of globalization.D. has converged cultural differences.48. The two schools of thought _.A. both pr

160、 interested in researching the topic of cultural diversity.B. who have connections to more than one type of culture.C. who want to travel abroad.D. who want to run business on international scale.50.

174、 strong love for climbing high and difficult mountains are often looked upon with astonishment. Why are men and women 16 to suffer cold and hardship, and to 17 on high mountains? This astonishment is caused, probably, by the difference between mountaineering and other forms of activity 18 men give t

There are rules of a different kind which it would be dangerous to 19 , but it is this freedom from man-made rules 20 makes mountaineering interesting to many people.

176、 Those who climb mountains are free to use their own methods.If we compare mountaineering with other more 21 sports, we might think that one big difference is that mountaineering is not a “team game”.

It requires individuals who are ca

194、pable of dealing with isolation from family and friends, crowded living conditions, great pressure to succeed and extreme danger.What are the criteria for an ideal astronaut? Generally, a person must be athletic and must possess both technical and interpersonal skills. Technical skills are particula

195、rly important. Astronauts need to be able to competently carry out scientific and technical tasks during the mission. They must be capable of taking accurate measurements and making observations while living in a weightless environment.Interpersonal skills are also critically important. Studies have

196、 shown that ideal astronauts are people who can be either introverts (内向的人) or extroverts. Introverts tend to be withdrawn, which helps them put up with isolation from family and respect the privacy of others. On the other hand, extroverts are outgoing and provide social stimulation for a crew. Both

197、 character types are necessary for different reasons. There are many seemingly contradictory traits that astronauts should possess: introverted yet at times extroverted, leaders yet capable of being led, and so on. An astronauts ability to adapt to different situations is most important.As the durat

198、ion of space missions increases, human factors become even more important. A manned mission to Mars would require a compatible crew that would ensure mission success, and of course, mission safety. Behavioral studies have been conducted in space analogs, which are environments similar to the confine

199、ment and isolation of space. These studies have shown that long periods of isolation can lead to sleep disturbances, emotional instability and depression - allthings that would disrupt the work performance of a crew of astronauts. In order to minimize the chances of such conditions developing, the s

200、elected crew must get along extremely well. Easier said than done.Scientists at NASA used the analogy (类比) of a jigsaw puzzle to describe the relationship of a crew of astronauts. The members of space crews bear a certain resemblance to the pieces in jigsaw puzzles: what is important is not so much

201、the shape and color of each individual piece, but the way the different pieces fit together. There has been much debate over how a space crew for a potential mission to Mars should be selected, but currently a three-phase system is favored. In this selection process, the first phase is selecting a l

202、arge group of people who satisfy the needed technical skills. The second phase is to pick out the individuals with the best interpersonal skills. The third phase is to group the individuals into mini-crews and then monitor those crews for compatibility as they undergo training for a mission. Finally

203、, the most well-formed, smoothly-functioning crew of astronauts is selected as the best crew for the mission.Astronaut selection is a difficult process. Many potential candidates nearly perfect for the job are rejected because of minor details. However, if you dream of becoming an astronaut, dont be

204、 discouraged by the odds. If the job description of an astronaut appeals to you, and you feel you have the “right stuff” for the job, then reach for the stars. In this case, the sky is not the limit.41. An ideal astronaut is a person who _.A. respects others privacyB. is sociable and outgoingC. adap

The relationship of an astronaut crew is similar to that of jigsaw pieces.44. The first phase of selecting the best crew for a mission to Mars

What might be a proper title for the passage?A. The Ideal AstronautB. A Manned Mission to MarsC. Astronauts and Jigsaw Puzzl

208、esD. Interpersonal Skills of AstronautsPassage 2In the States, each fall a new crop of first-year college students, wavering between high hopes for the future and intense anxiety about their new status, scan college maps searching for their classroom. They have been told repeatedly that college is t

209、he key to a well-paying job, and they certainly dont want to support themselves by flipping hamburgers or working at some other dead-end job. So, notebooks at the ready, they await what college has in store. Unfortunately many of them will not return after the first year. Why do so many students lea

210、ve? There are several reasons. Some find the academic program too hard, others lack the proper study habits or motivation, and a large group leave for personal reasons. Not surprisingly, the academic shortcomings of college students have strong links to high school. In the past, a high-school studen

211、t who lacked the ability or desire to take a college-preparatory course could settle for a diploma in general studies and afterward find a job with decent pay. Now that possibility scarcely exists, so many poorly prepared students feel compelled to try college. Getting accepted by some schools isnt

212、difficult. Once in, though, the student who has taken nothing beyond general mathematics, English, and science faces serious trouble when confronted with freshman composition, and biological or physical science. Most colleges do offer courses and other assistance that may help some weaker students t

213、o survive. In spite of everything, however, many others find themselves facing ever-worsening grade-point averages and either fail or just give up.Like academic shortcomings, poor study habits have their roots in high school, where even average students can often breeze through with a minimum of eff

214、ort. In many schools, outside assignments are rare and so easy that they require little time or thought to complete. To accommodate slower students, teachers frequently repeat material so many times that slightly better students can grasp it without opening their books. And when papers are late, tea

215、chers often dont mark them down. This “kindness” produces students who cant or dont want to study, students totally unprepared for the rigorous demands of college. There, courses may require several hours of study each week in order to be passed with even a “C.” In many programs, outside assignments

216、 are commonplace and demanding. Instructors expect students to grasp material after one explanation, and many wont accept late papers at all. Students who dont quickly develop disciplined study habits face a flood of low grades and failure.Poor student motivation worsens faulty study habits. Student

217、s who thought high school was boring find even less attraction in the more challenging college offerings. Lacking any commitment to do well, they shrug off assigned papers, skip classes, and avoid doing required reading. Over time, classes gradually shrink as more and more students stay away. With f

218、inal exams upon them, some return in a last-ditch effort to save a passing grade, but by then it is too late. Eventually, repetition of this situation forces the students out.46. Which of the following is true of first-year college students?A. They have been forced to go to college.B. They have mixe

219、d feelings about their college life.C. Few of them are confident about their past achievements.D. They believe college can guarantee them well-paying jobs.47. Students performance in college _.A. decides their work habits in the futureB. indicates their academic score in the pastC. shows their expec

220、tations for future careerD. reflects what they have experienced in high school48.
