18、ets are more eye-catching compared with their former dull color. 1 , five or six years ago, when many other Chinese cities began to 2 their public buses with 3 advertisements, Beijing remained unmoved, allegedly 4 of consideration for maintaining the stately grace of the capital. But Beijing“s “loft
19、y posture“ did not 5 long under the pressure of the market economy. Since 1993, most public buses have been 6 with brightly colored ads, many featuring 7 images. Public transportation companies were the first group 8 from the move. The No. 300 Bus alone has annually 9 4 million yuan of ad earnings t
20、o its company. At the same time, business people are happy to find a comparatively cheap, 10 widely influential, advertising medium. Advertising on buses, a form quickly accepted by Beijing residents, adds a new 11 line to the city, instead of 12 the capital“s image. The Chinese attitude towards adv
21、ertisements has changed greatly. 13 from sight for a long period, commercial ads reappeared in 1979, but they were 14 . Today, however, advertisements are 15 entering daily life. More and more urban residents are becoming accustomed to 16 shopping information in this way. 17 recent years, the Beijin
22、g TV Station has 18 an advertising program, TV Market. The diverse, 19 forms and practical contents have enabled it to gain high ratings. Advertising is no longer considered non-essential.

We often forget this fact when we think about the other building
26、 blocks of life such as vitamins, minerals and proteins. We can live for many days without eating, but two or three days without water usually leads to death. The human body may look solid, but most of it is water. Newborn babies are as much as 85% water. Women are about 65% water and men about 75%.
27、 Women usually have less water than men because women, in general, have more fat cells, and fat cells hold less water than other kinds of cells. Water is necessary for cooling the body under hot weather and when we are working hard or exercising, water carries body heat to the surface of the skin, w
28、here the heat is lost through perspiration (出汗). Researchers note that fat cells block body heat from escaping quickly. Fat cells under the skin act like warm clothing to keep body heat inside. This is why overweight people have a more difficult time staying cool than thin people. Researchers also n
29、ote that cool liquids cool us faster than warm liquids, because cold liquids take up more heat inside the body and carry it away faster. They say, however, that cold sweet drinks do not work well because the sugar slows the liquid from getting into the blood stream. The body loses water every day th
30、rough perspiration and urine (尿). If we lose too much, we will become sick. To replace what is lost, health experts say grown persons should drink about 2 liters of liquids each day, and more in hot weather. They say we can also get some of the water we need in the foods we eat. Most fruits and vege
31、tables are more than 80% water. And even bread is about 33% water.（分数：10.00）(1).From the passage we learn that among the following four groups of people _.（分数：2.00）A.fat women are over eighty percent waterB.thin men are over eighty percent waterC.newborn infants are over eighty percent waterD.elderl
32、y adults are over eighty percent water(2).Why do thin people usually feel better in hot days than fat people?（分数：2.00）A.Thin people perspire less.B.Fat people do not sweat as much as thin people do.C.Thin people have less heat inside their bodies.D.Fat people have more fat cells which keep the heat
33、inside,(3).The author suggests that on hot summer days one should drink _.（分数：2.00）A.hot waterB.iced teaC.cold Coca-ColaD.hot coffee(4).What should we do to keep enough water in the body?（分数：2.00）A.To take two liters of water daily all through the year.B.To eat everything that contains water.C.To ta
34、ke in as much as we have lost.D.To drink only when we feel very thirsty.(5).What can we conclude from this passage?（分数：2.00）A.Water is almost as important as food.B.Many people tend to neglect the importance of water.C.Water is the origin of life.D.Most fruits and vegetables contain much water.五、Pas
35、sage 2(总题数：1，分数：10.00)A major incentive (动力) for college attendance is the belief that it will prepare you for a career. Chances are that the career you want, whether in nursing, counseling, law, or management, requires a college education. Even if the return of your education isn“t as great as it u
36、sed to be, you would probably rather be a relatively poorly paid lawyer than a secretary or a construction worker; you would probably rather be a manager than a managee. In the sense that a degree is increasingly required for even middle-level jobs, your investment in a college education will still
37、pay off. It can pay off in other ways too. It is a value judgement to say that a college education will make you a better person, but it is a value judgement that the vast majority of college graduates are willing to make survey after survey to demonstrate that people feel very positive about their
38、college education, believing that it has made them better and more tolerant people. Whether it makes you a better person or not, a college education is likely to have a lasting effect on your knowledge and values. If you finish college, you will sit through 30 to 45 different courses. Even the least
39、 dedicated student is bound to learn something from these courses. In addition, students learn informally. Whether you go to college in you hometown or across the country, college will introduce you to a greater diversity of people than you“re likely to have experienced before. This diversity will c
40、hallenge your mind and broaden your horizons. As a result of formal and informal learning, college graduates are more knowledgeable about the world around them, more tolerant and less prejudiced, more active in public and community affairs, and, more open to new ideas.（分数：10.00）(1).It is apparent fr
41、om the passage that people go to college mainly because they believe_.（分数：2.00）A.a college education will provide them with a guarantee of success in lifeB.the economy of their country can“t absorb an army of untrained youngstersC.a college education will make them better qualified for a careerD.the
42、 investment in a college education can bring a higher economic return than before(2).We can learn from the second paragraph that _.（分数：2.00）A.college can hardly help people become better citizensB.most college graduates refuse to make any comment on their college educationC.a college education may n
43、ot be the best thing for everyoneD.people consider their college education to be of great worth(3).The word “dedicated“ (Line 3, Para. 3) could best be replaced by _.（分数：2.00）A.hardworkingB.competentC.intelligentD.conservative(4).According to the passage, which of the following statements is NOT tru
44、e?（分数：2.00）A.A college student can enrich his knowledge and broaden his mind through formal and informal learning.B.A college education is likely to be a required credential (文凭) for the career a person wants.C.A college student who doesn“t work hard can get nothing out of the courses he takes.D.A c
45、ollege education tends to have long-range effects on a person“s knowledge and values.(5).This passage is primarily concerned with _.（分数：2.00）A.the change of people“s attitude toward their college educationB.the benefits of a college educationC.the result of formal and informal learningD.the intercom
46、munication among college students六、Passage 3(总题数：1，分数：10.00)Everyone is exposed to it , so naturally some people will imitate what they see on TV, what they read in the newspapers and what they witness every day. It is better to prevent violence than to try to stop it. Dentists tell you to brush you
47、r teeth to prevent cavities so they won“t have to fill the cavity later. People and lawmakers all over the world realize this. The next question is, “How do you prevent violence from happening?“ To answer this question, you may ask yourself, “What causes violence?“ Guns are definitely something used
48、 in acts of violence, but just about anything will do. Bare hands are often the weapons. What we have to do is to work together as a community and make violence wrong but not to tolerate. We“ve got to find a better solution than jails, and we“ve got to do it now. It“s not something that can wait. Th
49、e message “Violence is wrong“ has got to be everywhere you look on TV, on street signs, buses, radio, in every kind of languageEnglish, Spanish, French, Hebrew, you name it, so that it can reach all kinds of people. People need to be cool. Violence needs to be labeled as foolish. It cannot be machismo (大男子气概) and toughness. We can reach people in all kinds o
