It may be walking, cycling or swimming, in winter, or skating or skiing. It may be a game o
16、f some kind football, hockey, golf or tennis. It may be mountaineering. These who have a passion 【26】 climbing high and difficult mountains are often 【27】 with astonishment. Why are men and women 【28】 to suffer cold and hardship, and to 【29】 on high mountains? This astonishment is caused, probably,
17、by the difference between mountaineering and other forms of activity 【30】 which men give their leisure. Mountaineering is a sport and not a game. There are no man-made roles, as there are for 【31】 games as golf and football. There are, of course, rules of different kinds which it would be dangerous
18、to 【32】 ,but it is this freedom from man-made rules 【33】 makes mountaineering attractive to many people. Those who climb mountains are free to use their own 【34】 If we 【35】 mountaineering with other more familiar sports, we might think that one big difference is 【36】 mountaineering is not a“ team wo
19、rk“. We should be mistaken in this. There are, it is true, no “matches“ 【37】 “teams“ of climbers, but when climbers are on a rock face linked by a rope on which their lives may 【38】 ,there is obviously teamwork. A mountain climber knows that he may have to fight forces that are stronger and more pow

A skier is probably past his best by the age of thirty, and most international tennis champions 【42】 in their early twenties. But it is not
21、【43】 for men of fifty or sixty to climb the highest mountains in the Alps. They may take more 【44】 than younger men, but they probably climb with more skill and less 【45】 of effort, and they certainly experience equal enjoyment. （分数：1.00）A.forB.inC.toD.ofA.looked up toB.looked forwardC.looked intoD.

24、hD.waste四、Section Reading Co(总题数：3，分数：3.00)Companies with large scale need a way to reach the savings of the public at large. The same problem, on a smaller scale, faces practically every company trying to develop new products and create new jobs. There can be little prospect of raising the sort of
25、sums required from friends and people we know, and while banks may agree to provide short-term finance, they are generally unwilling to provide money on a permanent basis for long-term projects. So companies turn to the public, persuading people to lend them money, or take a share in the business in
26、 exchange for a share in future profits. Thus they do by issuing stocks and shares in the business through the Stock Exchange. By doing so they can put into circulation the savings of individuals both at home and abroad. When the saver needs his money back, he does not have to go to the company with
27、 whom he originally placed it. Instead, he sells his shares through a stockbroker to some other savers who is earnest to invest his money. A lot of the services needed both by industry and by each of us are provided by the Government or by local authorities. Without hospitals, roads, electricity, te
28、lephones, equipment and new development if they are to serve us properly, requiring more money than is raised through taxes alone. The government, local authorities, and nationalised industries therefore frequently need to borrow money to support major capital expenses, and they too, come to the Sto
29、ck Exchange. There is hardly a man or woman in this country whose job or whose living standard does not rely on the ability of his or her employers to raise money to finance new development. In one way or another this new money must come from the savings of the country. The Stock Exchange exists to
30、supply a channel through which these savings can reach those who need finance. （分数：1.00）(1).Almost all companies involved in new production and development must_.（分数：0.20）A.depend on their own financial resourcesB.invite the banks to provide long-term financeC.borrow large sums of money from friends
31、 and people they knowD.rely on the population as a whole for finance(2).The money which enables these companies to continue their projects is_.（分数：0.20）A.repaid to its original owners as soon as possibleB.raised by the selling of shares in the companiesC.exchanged for part ownership in the Stock Exc
32、hangeD.invested in different companies in the Stock Exchange(3).When the savers want their money back they_.（分数：0.20）A.ask another company to obtain their money for themB.look for other people to borrow money fromC.put their shares in the company back on the marketD.transfer their money to a more su
33、ccessful company(4).All the essential services on which we depend are_（分数：0.20）A.run by the Government or our local authoritiesB.in constant need of financial supportC.financed wholly by rates and taxesD.unable to provide for the needs of the population(5).The Stock Exchange makes it possible for th
34、e Government, local authorities and nation-alised industries_（分数：0.20）A.to borrow as much money as they wishB.to make certain everybody save moneyC.to raise money to support new developmentsD.to make certain everybody lend money to themPetroleum products, such as gasoline, kerosine, home heating oil
35、, residual fuel oil, and lubricating oil, all come from one source crude oil found below the earth s surface, as well as under large bodies of water, from a few hundred feet below the surface to as deep as 25 000 feet into the earths interior. Sometimes crude oil is secured by drilling a hole throug
36、h the earth, but more dry holes are drilled than those generating oil. Pressure at the source or pumping forces crude oil to the surface. Crude oil wells flow at varying rates, from ten to thousands of barrels per. hour. Petroleum products are always measured in 42-gallon barrels. Petroleum products
37、 are different in physical appearance: thin, thick, transparent or opaque, but their chemical composition is made up of only two elements: carbon and hydrogen, which form compounds called hydrocarbons. Other chemical elements found in union with the hydrocarbons are few and are classified as impurit
38、ies. Trace elements are also found, but these are of such minute quantities that they are disregarded. The combination of carbon and hydrogen forms many thousands of compounds which are possible because of the various positions and joinings of these two atoms in the hydrocarbon molecule. The various
39、 petroleum products are refined from the crude oil by heating and condensing the vapors. These products are light oils, such as gasoline, kerosine, and distillate oil. The residue remaining after the light oils are distilled is named as heavy or residual fuel oil and is used mostly for burning under
40、 boilers. Additional complicated refining processes rearrange the chemical structure of the hydrocarbons to produce other products, some of which are used to upgrade and increase the octane rating of various kinds of gasoline. （分数：1.00）(1).Which of the following is NOT true?（分数：0.20）A.Crude oil is f
41、ound below land and water.B.Crude oil is always found a few hundred feet below the surface.C.Pumping and pressure force crude oil to the surface.D.A variety of petroleum products is obtained from crude oil.(2).Many thousands of hydrocarbon compounds are possible because_.（分数：0.20）A.the petroleum pro
42、ducts vary greatly in physical appearanceB.complicated refining processes rearrange the chemical structureC.the two atoms in the molecule assume many positionsD.the pressure needed to force it to the surface causes molecular transformation(3).Which of the following is TRUE?（分数：0.20）A.The various pet
43、roleum products are produced by filtration.B.Heating and condensation produce the various products.C.Chemical separation is used to produce the various products.D.Mechanical means such as the centrifuge are used to produce the various products(4).How is crude oil brought to the surface?（分数：0.20）A.By
44、 expansion of the hydrocarbons.B.By pressure and pumping.C.By vacuum created in the drilling pipe.D.By expansion and contraction of the earths surface.(5).Which of the following is NOT listed as a light oil?（分数：0.20）A.Gasoline.B.Kerosine.C.Distillate oil.D.Diesel oil.Trees are useful to man in three
45、 very important ways: they supply him with wood and other products; they give him shade; and they help to prevent droughts and floods. Unfortunately, in many parts of the world, man has not realized that the third of these service is the most important. In his eagerness to draw quick profit from the
46、 trees, he has cut them down is large numbers, only to find that without them he has lost the best friends he had. 2 000 years ago a rich and powerful country cut down its trees to build warships, with which to gain itself an empire. It gained the empire but, without its trees, its soil became hard
47、and poor. When the empire fell to pieces, the home country found itself faced floods and starvation. Even if a government realizes the importance of adequate supply of trees, it is difficult for it to persuade the villager to see this. The villager wants wood to cook his food with; and he can earn m
48、oney by producing charcoal or selling wood to the townsman. He is usually too lazy or too careless to plant and take care of new trees. So, unless the government has a good control system, or can educate the people, the forests will slowly disappear. This does not only mean that the villagers sons a
49、nd grandsons have fewer trees. The results are even more serious: for where there are trees their roots break the soil up allowing the rain to sink in and also bind the soil, thus preventing its being washed away easily; but where there are no trees, the rain falls on hard ground and flows away from the surface, causing floods and carrying away with it the rich topsoil ,in which crops grow so well. When all the top soil is gone, nothing remains but a useless desert. （分数：1.00）(1).What is the most
