13、rly history, Chicago had floods frequently, especially in the spring, making the streets so muddy that people, horses, and carts got stuck. An old joke that was popular at the time went something like this: A man is stuck up to his waist in a muddy Chicago street. Asked if he needs help, he replies,
14、 “No, thanks. Ive got a good horse under me. “ The city planner decided to build an underground drainage(排水)system, but there simply wasnt enough difference between the height of the ground level and the water level. The only two options were to lower the Chicago Riyer or raise the city. An engineer
15、 named Ellis Chesbrougn convinced the city that it had no choice but to build the pipes above ground and then cover them with dirt. This raised the level of the city s streets by as much as 12 feet. This of course created a new problem: dirt practically buried the first floors of every building in C
16、hicago. Building owners were faced with a choice: either change the first floors of their buildings into basements, and the second stories into main floors, of hoist the entire buildings to meet the new street level. Small wood-frame buildings could be lifted fairly easily. But what about large, hea
17、vy structures like the Tremont Hotel, which was a six-story brick building? That s where George Pullman came in. He had developed some house-moving skills successfully. To lift a big structure like the Tremont Hotel, Pullman would place thousands of jackscrews(螺旋千斤顶)beneath the building s foundation
18、. One man was assigned to operate each section of roughly 10 jackscrews. At Pullman s signal each man turned his jackscrew the same amount at the same time, thereby raising the building slowly and evenly. Astonishingly, the Tremont Hotel stayed open during the entire operation, and many of its guest
19、s didn t even notice anything was happening. Some people like to say that every problem has a solution. But in Chicago s early history, every engineering solution seemed to create a new problem. Now that Chicago s waste water was draining efficiently into the Chicago River, the city s next step was
20、to clean the polluted river.（分数：10.00）(1).The author mentions the joke to show_.（分数：2.00）A.horses were fairly useful in ChicagoB.Chicagos streets were extremely muddyC.Chicago was very dangerous in the springD.the Chicago people were particularly humorous(2).The city planners were convinced by Ellis
21、 Chesbrough to_.（分数：2.00）A.get rid of the street dirtB.lower the Chicago RiverC.fight against heavy floodsD.build the pipes above ground(3).The underlined word “hoist“ in Paragraph 4 means “_“.（分数：2.00）A.changeB.liftC.repairD.decorate(4).What can we conclude about the moving operation of the Tremont
22、 Hotel?（分数：2.00）A.It went on smoothly as intended.B.It interrupted the business of the hotel.C.It involved Pullman turning ten jackscrews.D.It separated the building from its foundation.(5).The passage is mainly about the early Chicago s_.（分数：2.00）A.popular life styles and their influencesB.environm
23、ental disasters and their causesC.engineering problems and their solutionsD.successful businessmen and their achievementsMost personnel managers agree that job interviews are one of the least objective recruitment methods. But the advantages of testing are not going to change the attraction of the i
24、nterview to employers. The appeal of the interview has everything to do with the human factor. Most people believe that they are a reasonable judge of character and trust their instinctive feelings. We might use some kind of test to aid the selection process, but we usually pick a candidate who inte
25、rviews well, has good qualifications and an impressive work record. But suppose the candidate lies or is less than completely honest, “ This can be a serious problem of employers,“ explains Alan Conrad, Chief Executive at Optimus Recruitment. “The most difficult liars to find are those who tell half
26、-truths rather than complete lies. “ Research shows that up to 75 percent of resumes are inaccurate on purpose. The most common practice is omission. Interviewer should therefore concentrate on areas of uncertainty such as gaps between periods of employment and job descriptions that seem strange. “F
27、ocusing on these areas will force candidates to tell the truth or become increasingly dishonest. This is usually when people signal their anxiety by their body language. Sweat on the upper lip, false smiles and nervous hand movements all indicate discomfort. “ Conrad does not suggest an aggressive p
28、olicy-style interview technique, but insists that close inspection of a resume is absolutely essential. Only by asking the right questions can you confirm the suitability of the candidate or put pressure on those who are being less than completely honest.（分数：10.00）(1).The best tide of this passage c

32、accept just women. Most of them were established in the 19th century: they were designed to offer women the education they could not receive anywhere else. At that time major universities and colleges accept only men. In the past 20 years many young women have chosen to study at colleges that accept
33、 both men and women. As a result, some womens colleges decided to accept men students too. Others, however, refused to change. Now these schools are popular again. The president of Trinity College in Washington, D. C. said that by the end of the 1980s women began to recognize that studying at the sa
34、me school with men did not mean women were having an equal chance to learn. The president of Smith College in Massachusetts says a women s college permits women to choose classes and activities freely. For example, she says that in a women * s college a higher percentage of students studied mathemat
35、ics than in a college with both men and women. Educational experts say men students in the United States usually speak in class more than women students do. In a women s college, women feel free to say what they think. Women s schools also bring out leadership capabilities in many women. Women are r
36、epresented everywhere. For example, at a womens college a woman holds every governing office. Recent studies reportedly show that this leadership continues after college. The studies show American women who went to women s colleges are more likely to hold successful jobs later in life.（分数：10.00）(1).

39、ege?（分数：2.00）A.Women have far more freedom in colleges for women only.B.The courses in women s schools are easier than in other schools.C.Women feel free to study what they are interested in a women s college.D.Women can hardly compete with men in mathematics.(4).What are the advantages of women s s

Every person is register
42、ed with a doctor in his or her local area, known as a general practitioner(全科医生)or GP. This means that their names are on the GP s list, and they may make an appointment to see the doctor or may call the doctor out to visit them if they are ill. People sometimes do have to pay part of the cost of dr
43、ugs that the doctor prescribes. GPs are trained in general medicine but are not specialists in any particular subject. If a patient needs to see a specialist doctor, they must first go to their GP and then the GP will make an appointment for the patient to see a specialist at a hospital or clinic. A
44、lthough everyone in Britain can have free treatment under the NHS, it is also possible for him to have treatment done privately, for which he has to pay.
