25、eive十、Part Cloze(总题数：1，分数：10.00)America is changing its eating habits. Though medical evidence mounts that we are 1 what we eat, consuming a healthier diet has become almost a national passion in the United States. The food-for- fitness phenomenon began in the late 70“s when a U.S. Senate committee
26、2 the conclusion that six out of ten leading causes of death such as heart disease and cancer might 3 diet. The government issued dietary guidelines 4 Americans to eat a variety of food, maintain proper weight, and limit intake of fat, salt, and sugar. For most Americans, what to eat is a matter of
27、personal choice, 5 one of supply. An excellent nationwide food distribution system assures that fresh 6 is readily available in all parts of the country, 7 the season. Taking advantage of this abundance, many people are forsaking traditional meat-and- potatoes fare 8 lighter meals of salads, fruits,
28、 and vegetables. One of the most significant trends in the American way of eating is the healthful change in restaurant food. One of 9 two meals in the United States is eaten outside the home. Restaurants are making special efforts to provide low-fat, low-salt, and low-calorie items. Saladbars, 10 w

31、luck in escaping a direct SARS hit, but officials aren“t leaving anything to chance. The best hope for averting a SARS epidemic at home will be to keep SARS out at the nation“s borders. Federal immigration laws authorize immigration authorities to exclude non-citizens who are determined to have a “c
32、ommunicable disease of public health significance“. Immigration law also authorizes the President by proclamation to suspend the entry of any group of aliens whose entry he deems to be detrimental to the interests of the United States. This little-used power could be deployed to exclude all aliens f
33、rom affected areas, a policy Taiwan has recently implemented. Under the Public Health Service Act, any individual (citizens included) may be quarantined at an international port of entry if they are reasonably believed to be carrying a designated communicable disease. As of an April 4 Executive Orde
34、r by President Bush, SARS is now a designated disease. Thus, in tandem with airline screening, federal health authorities are carefully monitoring travelers from affected areas in Asia for SARS symptoms. With an estimated 25,000 individuals entering the country legally from Asia on a daily basis, th
35、at is a tall order. A single SARS-infected person getting through the net could bring down the border strategy. The U.S. government might also reinforce the border strategy through restrictions on travel by American citizens to affected areas. In a series of Cold War era decisions, the Supreme Court
36、 upheld international travel restrictions for national security reasons, and one can imagine the same rationale applying to a public health emergency. How practical it would be to prohibitand policea travel ban to countries such as China is another question. The initial SARS defense, then, hinges on
37、 effective border control. But U.S. borders are far from under control. There are an estimated 89 million undocumented aliens now in the United States, a figure growing by as many as 500,000 per year. Asia is the largest contributor to undocumented immigration outside the western hemisphere, funneli
38、ng illegal aliens into the United States through elaborate smuggling networks. SARS could just as easily make serious inroads into the U.S. through this backdoor rather than the front.（分数：5.00）(1).From the first three paragraphs, we learn that _.（分数：1.00）A.American officials don“t see any chance of
39、escaping an immediate SARS hitB.non-citizens with a disease will be quarantined at the international airportC.foreigners with a communicable disease may legally be denied entry into the U.S.D.immigration officers are empowered to keep aliens out of the U.S.(2).Which of the following statements is tr
40、ue according to the text?（分数：1.00）A.The President rarely declares a rejection of non-citizens from infected areas.B.The U.S. is the only lucky country to have kept safe from a SARS attack.C.The interests of the U.S. are given more legal protection than public health.D.The Public Health Service Act h
41、as been brought into effect since April 4.(3).The phrase “a tall order“ most probably means _.（分数：1.00）A.an ambitious planB.a difficult taskC.a careful arrangementD.an illegal decision(4).The author would probably agree that _.（分数：1.00）A.a SARS hit could be escaped by means of strict monitoring of i
42、nternational travelB.undocumented immigrants pose a serious threat to national security of U.S.C.illegal aliens come into the U.S. with the help of complicated smuggling networksD.American border strategy may fail to attain its goal of avoiding a SARS epidemic(5).The passage is primarily concerned w
43、ith _.（分数：1.00）A.the threat of SARS to the national security of U.S.B.the U.S. border strategy against SARSC.the problems in U.S. national securityD.the crisis of a public health emergency十三、Passage Two(总题数：1，分数：5.00)It“s becoming something of a joke along the Maine-Canada border. So many busloads o
44、f retired people crisscross the line looking for affordable drugs that the roadside stands should advertise, “Lobsters. Blueberries. Lipitor. Coumalin.“ Except, of course, that such a market in prescription drugs would be illegal. These senior long-distance shopping sprees fall in a legal gray zone.
45、 But as long as people cross the border with prescriptions from a physician and have them filled for no more than a three-month supply for personal use, customs and other federal officials leave them alone. The trip might be tiring, but people can save an average of 60 percent on the cost of their p
46、rescription drugs. For some, that“s the difference between taking the drugs or doing without. “The last bus trip I was on six months ago had 25 seniors,“ says Chellie Pingree, former Maine state senator and now president of Common Cause. “Those 25 people saved $19,000 on their supplies of drugs.“ Pi
47、ngree sponsored Maine RX, which authorizes a discounted price on drugs for Maine residents who lack insurance coverage. The law was challenged by drug companies but recently upheld by the U.S. Supreme Court. It hasn“t yet taken effect. Figuring out ways to spend less on prescription drugs has become
48、 a multifaceted national movement of consumers, largely senior citizens. The prescription drug bill in America is $160 billion annually, and people over 65 fill five times as many prescriptions as working Americans on average. “But they do it on health benefits that are half as good and on incomes t
49、hat are half as large,“ says Richard Evans, senior analyst at Sanford C. Bernstein, an investment research firm. What“s more, seniors account for 20 percent of the voting public. It“s little wonder that the May 19 Supreme Court ruling got the attention of drug manufacturers and politicians across the country. The often-over-looked state of 1.3 million tucked in the northeast corner of the country became David to the pharmaceutical industry“s Goliath. The face-off began three years ago when state legislators like Ping
