The ocean made plentiful clouds, the clouds hittin
20、g the mountains made plentiful rain, the rain washing down the mountains for thousands of years had built a wide plain of fertile (肥沃的) soil. The rivers which had brought down the soil were steep near the mountains, but near the coast they were wide and rolling, deep enough for the small boats of th
21、e time to sail for miles. It was far enough south for the summers to be hot, so that the growing season lasted from six months in Maryland to about nine in South Carolin a. If you add these ideal farming conditions to the early discovery of a New World crop which was always in demand in the Old Worl
22、d, you will readily understand why the Southern Colonies became a farming group.Tobacco! This was the breath of life in Virginia, the oldest of the Southern Colonies. Men talked, thought, and bought in tobacco. It was a farming country, and other crops were also grown, but while the Southerner might
23、 have competition in the production of fruits and grains (wheat and rice and barley (大麦), in tobacco he was a master. Tobacco! It was a magic word. Everything revolved around its production and it had a tremendous effect upon life in the South.（分数：10.00）(1).“A New World crop“ in the last sentence of

28、ch of life. Our present theories of physics indicate that it is impossible to move at a speed greater than that of light. Even at such a speed it would take many years to reach the nearest star that might have planets. Most of such stars are many lifetimes away.Perhaps someday we shall invent ways o
29、f travelling or sending messages that will allow man to find other living things in the universe.Even more interesting is the possibility that they may find us! If the steady-state theory of the universe is correct, there must be many “solar systems“ that are mush older than ours. On some of these,
30、intelligent life may have evolved (进化) long ago. If so, these creatures might be exploring the universe today.Serious scientific projects in recent years have been studying the skies with radio telescopes, hoping to find signals sent by such intelligent beings. It has been suggested that the puzzlin
31、g quasars (类星体) might be the wakes (航迹) left by spaceships travelling faster than light.Thus far, we have found no definite evidence of other intelligent life in the universe. Perhaps we never shall. Yet the search and the hope will remain an exciting possibility for the future.（分数：10.00）(1).Today w

36、ns to find itD. it is possible for us humans to continue to search for it（分数：2.00）A.B.C.D.九、Passage There(总题数：1，分数：10.00)Since the 1950s, we have destroyed more than a third of our natural world. Our way of life has caused many serious environmental problems. We use huge amounts of natural resources
37、 and produce too much rubbish. Pollution is changing the Earths climate and our planet is getting hotter. The big question is: Will things ever change for the better?There are some scientists who are full of hope that something good will happen. They believe that with the help of science and strict
38、laws todays environmental problems will disappear in the future. Other scientists are pessimistic (悲观的): They believe that environmental problems are getting worse and soon it will be too late to save the environment.

39、th in the year 2100 :The Earths population will probably be 22.2 billion.The Earths temperature will be 1.4 to 5.8 degrees higher than it is today.

Many were rejected by U.S. medical schools simp
45、ly because there was no room. Last year, for example, some 13,000 of 35,000 would-be physicians who applied to U. S. schools were accepted. Of those who were turned down, well over 600 are trying the foreign route.But gaining admittance to a good foreign school may be a problem. British medical scho
46、ols give priority to Britons, and Canadas world-renowned McGill University School of Medicine takes only a handful of well qualified Americans annually. But several schools do welcome U.S. medical studentsif they can master the local language. More than 500 Americans are enrolled in the Belgian univ
47、ersities at Brussels and Louvain, for example. Some 800 attend the Italian University at Bologna; 175 at Rome. Mexicos Autonomous University of Guadalajara numbers 1,300 Americans among its 4,000 students.Despite difficulties abroad, many Americans complete their medical education, and manage to win
48、 the respect of their professors and classmates. One second-year student at Louvain has a simple explanation for these successes: “Anyone who comes here has to be motivated. You have to learn a new language, the school is constant hard work, and its difficult to get back into the States to practise“
49、.Before they can become interns (做实习医师) or practise in the United States, graduates of foreign schools must pass a special examination required by the medical-education authorities. The tough test is designed primarily to weed (铲除) out those who are unable to speak English or whose medical education is n
