Different parts of the Earth receive different amounts of heat. Near the equator(赤道), the sun is overhead and heats the Earth intensely (强烈).
23、 Nearer the poles, the suns rays strike the Earth at a low angle so the heat is not so intense.A lot of the earths heat is reflected back into spaces, by the atmosphere, clouds, dust in the air and by water, snow and ice. So some parts of the Earth are warm and some are cold. Warm air tends to rise
24、and creates areas of high pressure. As warm air rises, cold air flows in and replaces it. The greater the pressure difference is, the stronger the wind blows.（分数：12.00）(1).The suns heat_.A. makes the air move B. makes the air stillC. makes the air cold D. reflects back into space（分数：3.00）A.B.C.D.(2)

Why Do Winds Blow（分数：3.00）A.B.C.D.In only two decades Asian Americans have become the fastestgrowing the U. S. minori
27、ty. As their children began moving up through the nations schools, it became clear that a new class of academic achievers was emerging. Their achievements are reflected in the nations best universities, where mathematics, science and engineering departments have taken on a decidedly Asian character.
28、 This special liking for mathematics and science is partly explained by the fact that Asian-American students who began their educations abroad arrived in the U.S. with a solid grounding in mathematics but little or no knowledge of English. They are also influenced by the promise of a good job after
29、 college. Asians feel they will be judged more objectively. And the return on the investment in education is more immediate in something like engineering than with an arts degree.Most Asian-American students owe their success to the influence of parents who are deter- mined that their children take
30、full advantage of what the American educational system has to offer. An effective measure of parental attention is homework. Asian parents spend more time with their children than American parents do, and it helps. Many researchers also believe there is something in Asian culture that breeds success
31、, such as ideals that stress family values and emphasize education.Both explanations for academic success worry Asian Americans because of fears that they feed a typical racial image. Many can remember when Chinese, Japanese and Filipino immigrants were the Victims of social isolation. Indeed, it wa
32、s not until 1952 that laws were laid down giving all Asian immigrants the right to citizenship.（分数：12.00）(1).While making tremendous achievements at college, Asian-American students _.A. feel they are mistreated because of limited knowledge of EnglishB. are afraid that their academic successes bear
33、a strong Asian characterC. still worry about unfair treatment in societyD. generally feel it a shame to have to depend on their parents（分数：3.00）A.B.C.D.(2).What are the major factors that determine the success of Asian Americans?A. A solid foundation in basic mathematics and Asian cultureB. Hard wor
34、k and intelligenceC. Hard help and a limited knowledge of EnglishD. Asian culture and the American educational system（分数：3.00）A.B.C.D.(3).Few Asian-American students major in human sciences mainly because _.A. their English is not good enoughB. they are afraid they might meet with unfair judgment in
35、 these areasC. there is a wide difference between Asian and Western culturesD. they know little about American culture and society（分数：3.00）A.B.C.D.(4).Why do the two “explanations“ (Line 1, Para. 3) worry Asian Americans?A. They are afraid that they would again be isolated from American society in g
36、eneralB. People would think that Asian students rely on their parents for successC. Asian Americans would be a threat to other minoritiesD. American academic achievements have taken on too strong an Asian character（分数：3.00）A.B.C.D.Can animals be made to work for us? Some scientists think that one da
37、y animals may be trained to do a number of simple jobs that are now done by human beings.They point out that at a circus, for example, we may see elephants, monkeys, dogs and other animals doing quite skillful things. Perhaps you have seen them on the television or in a film. If you watch closely, y
38、ou may notice that the trainer always gives the animal a piece of candy or a piece of fruit as a reward. The scientists say that many different animals may be trained to do a number of simple jobs if they know they will get a reward for doing them.Of course, as we know, dogs can be used to guard a h
39、ouse, and soldiers in both old and modem times have used geese to give warning by making a lot of noise when a stranger or an enemy comes near. But it may be possible to train animals to work in factories. In Russia, for example, pigeons which are birds with good eyesight, are being used to watch ou
40、t for faults in small steel balls that are being made in one factory. When the pigeon sees a ball which looks different from others, it touches a steel plate with its beak. This turns on a light to warn people in the factory. At the same time a few seeds are given as a reward. It takes three to five
41、 weeks to train a pigeon to do this and one pigeon can inspect 3 000 to 4 000 balls an hour.Apes have been used in America in helping to make cars, and scientists believe that these large monkeys may be one day gather crops and even drive trains.（分数：12.00）(1).What made scientists think animal can be
42、 made to work for us one day?A. Animals are very skillful at a circus.B. They are big and strong.C. Some animals are as clever as human beings.D. Animals can be trained because they like to get something as a reward.（分数：3.00）A.B.C.D.(2).The trainer usually gives the animal a piece of candy or fruit
43、_.A. when it is hungry B. before it plays a trickC. when it starts to play a trick D. after it has done the trick（分数：3.00）A.B.C.D.(3).Many animals may be trained to do simple jobs if they know _.A. who their trainers areB. they will be praised by their trainersC. they will get a rewardD. something d
44、angerous will happen to them（分数：3.00）A.B.C.D.(4).Which of the following is not tree?A. Scientists consider apes may drive trains some day.B. Apes have worked in some factories.C. Apes may one day be used to gather crops.D. An ape is not a large monkey.（分数：3.00）A.B.C.D.If women are mercilessly exploi
45、ted (剥削) year after year, they are only themselves to blame. Because they tremble at the thought of being seen in public in clothes that are out of fashion, they are always taken advantage of by the designers and the big stores. Clothes which have been worn only a few times have to be put aside beca
46、use of the change of fashion. When you come to think of it, only a woman is capable of standing in front of a wardrobe (衣柜) packed full of clothes and announcing sadly that she has nothing to wear.Changing fashions are nothing more than the intentional creation of waste. Many women spend vast sums o
47、f money each year to replace clothes that have hardly been worn. Women who cannot afford to throw away clothing in this way, waste hours of their time altering the dresses they have. Skirts are lengthened or shortened; necklines are lowered or raised, and so on.No one can claim that the fashion indu
48、stry contributes anything really important to society. Fashion desihners are rarely concerned with vital things like warmth, comfort and durability (耐用). They are only interested in outward appearance and they take advantage of the fact that women will put up with any amount of discomfort, as long a
49、s they look fight. There can hardly be a man who hasnt at some time in his life smiled at the sight of a woman shaking in a thin dress on a winter day, delicately picking her way through deep snow in high-heeled shoes.When comparing men and women in the matter of fashion the conclusions to be drawn are obvious. Do the constantly changing fashion of womens clothes, one wonders, reflect basic qualities of inconstancy and instability? Men are too clever to
