It has come to seem like a ceremony of passage for the successful male, a red symbol of courage in midlife. Six hundred thousand
22、 bypass operations are performed a year in the United States. After a bypass, most heart patients experience significant relief from the peculiar discomfort in the chest caused by insufficient blood to the heart muscle. In some cases the surgery can dramatically extend life. American heart patients,
23、 who now number about 12 million, are enthusiastic about the surgery. Bypass is one of the most common major operations in America.In private, however, many of my fellow workers in medicine suspect that bypass has become too popular. A recent Harvard study showed that as many as two-thirds of patien
24、ts referred for bypass dont need it or could have it postponed. In Canada and Britain, where physicians perform bypass surgery much less frequently than they do in America,heart patients fare just as well. In addition, bypassing a blocked section of an artery does nothing to ;prevent the artery (动脉)
25、 from getting clogged somewhere else. In fact, bypass surgery can accelerate the development of new blockage.But bypass did not have to prove itself. It has become hugely popular. Voices of caution were drowned out as more and more hospitals raced to offer bypass. By 1979,100 000: bypasses a year we
26、re taking place, and 10 years later the figure has risen to 260 000. Medical students were keen to train in cardiac (心脏的) surgery; for all the hard training, it was a advancing ,challenging field. In fact, the rewards are handsome. There is more money to be made performing this surgery than there is
27、 in practicing in almost any other field of medicine.The idea of bold surgeons reaching into our bodies to save a wounded heart cannot but exert a powerful grip on our imaginations, as if we are witnessing a cultural ceremony where two overachieving individualssurgeon and patientcome together, Bypas
28、s may indeed be both a life-extending and pain-relieving procedure for many patients. But perhaps it has transfixed us for too long.（分数：6.00）(1).According to the passage, a bypass surgery is _.（分数：1.00）A.a dangerous operationB.a painful experienceC.a symbol of ones success and courageD.nothing serio
29、us(2).From the second paragraph, we can see that the author is _.（分数：1.00）A.one of the heart patientsB.a boss in pharmacyC.a teacher in Harvard UniversityD.a medical worker(3).What conclusion can we come to, according to the passage?（分数：1.00）A.In a sense we may call the United States a “bypass natio
30、n“.B.In Canada and the U.K. bypass operations are less performed because their medical levels are relatively lower.C.Bypass operations can solve the heart patients problems once and for all.D.Recent study shows that nearly all of the bypass operations in the United States are proved useless and need
31、less.(4).Bypass operation has become very popular in the United States because _.（分数：1.00）A.it is one of the most common major operationsB.it is more effective than any other medicineC.the standard of living in America is much higher than that in any other countryD.it can bring more money to the hos
32、pitals and doctors(5).In the third paragraph, the word “handsome“ actually mean _.（分数：1.00）A.beautifulB.considerableC.poorD.good-looking(6).In the last paragraph the author implies that _.（分数：1.00）A.the popularity of bypass operation has its profound financial reasonsB.doing bypass operation makes a
33、 doctor famousC.we shouldnt have blind faith in anything even if it is goodD.receiving a bypass operation makes a person satisfied十、Passage Two(总题数：1，分数：6.00)More American mothers than ever are working, and more workers are mothers. Yet their march into the world of paid work continues to cause susp
34、icion. One recent survey found that 48 percent of Americans believe that preschoolers suffer if their mothers work, while another found that 42 percent of employed parents think that working mothers care more about succeeding at work than meeting their childrens needs.All mothers deserve our support
35、-those who care for children at home and those who have joined the work force. But many working mothers continue to believe that they are shortchanging (少找钱)their children. They shouldnt. Research tells us that kids do just fine when mothers work.Suzanne Bianchi a scientist of the University of Mary
36、land, has found that mothers today spend as much if not more time with their children than they did in 1965, even though the percentage of mothers who work rose from 35 percent to 71 percent. Then there are the obvious financial benefits. For many children, these earnings are the difference between
37、living in povertyor out of it.The kids are all right. Studies conducted by the University of Michigan have consistently demonstrated that a childs social or academic competence does not depend on whether a mother is employed. In my research four out of five children (nine out of ten in single parent
38、 families) told me that having a working mother was their preferred arrangement. My study found that children with working mothers are no more likely to drop out, take drugs, break the law, or experiment with sex prematurely than children with non-employed mothers. Children have taken their mothers
39、example to heart. Ninety percent of the young women I interviewed said they hoped to combine work with motherhood, while two-thirds of the men said they wanted to share parenting and work.Sadly, children support working mothers more than we do as a society. Parental leave and child-care benefits in
40、the United States remain inadequate, particularly when compared to whats offered in other countries. Children thrive when their mothers have satisfying, well-paid jobs when they can count on other caretakers to share the load. The challenge facing us is thus not whether good workers can also be good
41、 mothers, but whether we can create the conditions that enable working mothers and fathers to be good parents.（分数：6.00）(1).From the first paragraph, we can see that _.（分数：1.00）A.now more American mothers are working than any time in American history and anywhere else in the worldB.more than half Ame
42、ricans think that before going to school, children need their mothers whole-hearted careC.a majority of Americans believe that once working outside home mothers think of their own work more than their childrenD.more American mothers work than ever before, but this problem of working mothers has not
43、been solved satisfactorily(2).In paragraph two, the author thinks that _.（分数：1.00）A.society should support all mothers no matter where they workat home or outside itB.working mothers are doing less for their childrenC.we should do more research on this problemD.working mothers should be proud(3).Fro
44、m the passage, we can not find the proof of the fact that _.（分数：1.00）A.now mothers do their household work just as well as they did beforeB.with their mothers working, children are better offC.lack of mothers care, children like to go astrayD.in single-parent families, most children like their mothe
45、rs go out working(4).In the last paragraph, “Parental leave and child-care benefits in the United States remain inadequate“ actually refers to _.（分数：1.00）A.parents should not leave and pay more care to their childrenB.parental leave and child-care is contradictedC.children have inadequate care from
46、their parentsD.in the United States, parents enjoy inadequate child-care leave and allowance(5).What do the Americans need in solving the problem of working mothers?（分数：1.00）A.They need the support of males.B.They need the understanding of other members of their families.C.They need young people to
47、be well-prepared to work both in and outside their homes.D.They need especially the powerful support of the society for working mothers.(6).What is the main idea of the passage?（分数：1.00）A.We should let mothers work without worry.B.It is better for mothers to stay at home.C.We should work hard, espec
48、ially mothers.D.Like mother, like children.十一、Passage Three(总题数：1，分数：6.00)Laundry is, after all, just laundry. Except when its not. And Procter (66) the mystery of this law was (67) . Dalton suggested, for example, that carbon monoxide (68) formed by the one with one (69) of atoms of carbon and oxyg

Assuming this to be true, (72) the definite proportions of Prouts law (73) all chemical compounds the different constituents (74) enter in unvarying proportions would naturally (75) the relative weights of the many different kinds of atoms.（分数：15.00）A.gasesB.piecesC.thingsD.gasA.oughtB.couldC.willD.mustA.variousB.manyC.theD.th
