23、snt exactly what I wanted, but, you know it was a first job. I stayed there for four years altogether. After three years I was promoted to ac- counts manager, and I stayed in that job for a year, but then I really got bored, so I decided to leave and I applied for other jobs in this area.I had no lu
24、ck getting a second job at all, and 1 was very short of money, so in the end I had to get a job working as a waitress in a restaurant. Well, it wasnt very successful because Im quite clumsy. I kept dropping things, so after six months, they gave me a sack (解雇). And then, just by chance I met an old
25、friend who I was at university with. And he was working in television. He got me a job as a television researcher on a program called “Business Today“.

28、hird job.D.I enjoyed being a TV program presenter.BB/BSleep is something we generally connect with living things. Of course, it is true that a tot of animals sleep, but scientists are not certain that primitive (原始的) forms of animal life like worms ever really sleep. On the other hand, animals such
29、as bears sleep for 4 or 5 months every year.The amount of sleep that a human being needs depends on age, tile individual and possibly race. For example, doctors think pre-school children need between 10 and 12 hours a night; school children between 9 and 11 hours; and adults between 7 and 9 hours. T
30、here are cases of old people who only sleep between 2 and 3 hours a day and continue to be active and healthy. The sleep requirements Of different races also appear to be different. Japanese people, for example, sleep fewer hours than Europeans.It is not known whether mental activity (except dreamin
31、g) occurs when a person is asleep. However, it is certainly true that some people can wake up at a particular time. There are also stories about scientists who solve difficult problems during sleep, because their subconscious (潜意识的) minds continue working on the problem.Some types of nightmares are
32、quite common: the dreamer is falling from a tree; or an animal is running after him. Some people say these two occur because mans ancestors (祖先) lived in trees and were in constant danger from wild animals.（分数：4.00）(1).Which of the following is NOT TRUE?（分数：1.00）A.We dont know if the worms really sl
33、eep or not.B.Old people only sleep 2 or 3 hours a day.C.People of different ages sleep different hours.D.People of different races sleep different hours.(2).The stories about scientists who solve difficult problems during sleep show that _.（分数：1.00）A.they are still working when they are sleepingB.di
34、fficult problems will become easier in ones sleepC.a persons mind can still be active when he is asleepD.all difficult problems can be worked out during sleep(3).We can infer from the text that _.（分数：1.00）A.all living things sleepB.some people can wake up on time without being calledC.old people usu
35、ally sleep nine or eleven hours a dayD.we are sure that our minds are not going when we are asleep(4).Some common nightmares are said to be connected with mans _.（分数：1.00）A.experienceB.historyC.ancestorsD.subconscious mindsBC/BEveryone ought to know that the world is in danger. It is hoped that ever
36、y government should act quickly in order to conserve (保护) nature. Here is one example of the problem. At one time there were 1,300 different plants, trees and flowers in Holland, but now only 866. The others have been destroyed by modem man and his technology. We are changing the earth, the air and
37、the water, and everything that grows and lives We cannot live without these things either.What will happen in the future? Perhaps it is more important to ask “What must we do now?“ The people who will be living in the world of tomorrow are the young of today. A lot of them know that conservation is
38、necessary. Many are helping to save our world. In some countries young people spend their spare time as “conservation volunteers“. They plant trees, build bridges across rivers in forests, and so on. In a small town in United States a large group of girls cleaned the banks of eleven kilometers of th
39、eir rivers. Young people may hear about conservation through a record called “No Ones Going to Change Our World“. It was made by Cliff Richard and his singing group. The money from it will help to conserve wild animals.（分数：4.00）(1).The example of Holland in the first paragraph shows that _.（分数：1.00）
40、A.every government is conserving natureB.people are changing the earthC.peoples technology is good to natureD.we can live without plants, trees and flowers(2).Which of the following would be an action of conserving nature?（分数：1.00）A.Cutting trees.B.Killing animals.C.Polluting air.D.Cleaning banks of
41、 rivers.(3).The underlined word “volunteer“ in paragraph 2 are people _.（分数：1.00）A.who are forced to do somethingB.who are willing to do something without paymentC.who are reluctant to do somethingD.who are controlled to do something(4).The record “No Ones Going to Change Our World“ will _.（分数：1.00）
42、A.raise the money for wild animalsB.be sold for business purposeC.help peoples technologyD.improve peoples singingBD/BEvery human has a very unique arrangement of the skin on his finger and this arrangement is unchangeable. Scientists and experts have proved the uniqueness (独特性) of fingerprints and
43、discovered that no exactly similar pattern (式样) is passed on from parents to children, though nobody knows why this is the case.The ridge (脊状) structure on a persons lingers does not change with the growth and is not affected by superficial (表面的) injuries. Burns, cuts and other damage to tile outer
44、part of the skin will be replaced in time by the new one which bears a reproduction (再现) of the original pattern. It is when the inner skin is injured that tile arrangement will be destroyed. Stone criminals make use of tilts fact to remove their own fingerprints but this is a dangerous and rare ste
45、p to take.Fingerprints call be made very easily with printers ink. They can be recorded easily. With special methods, identification can be achieved successfully within a short time. Because of the simplicity (简单) and economy of this system, fingerprints have often been used as a method of solving c
46、riminal cases. A suspected man may deny a charge but this may be in vain. His finger- prints can prove who he is even if his appearance has been changed by age or accident.When a suspect leaves fingerprints behind at a scene of a crime, they are difficult to detect with the naked eyes. Special techn
47、iques are used to “develop“ them. Some of the marks found are incomplete but identification is possible if a print of a quarter of an inch square can be obtained.（分数：4.00）(1).We can learn from the article that _.（分数：1.00）A.a persons fingerprints are similar to his fathersB.a criminal can change his
48、fingerprints by injuring the outer skinC.a persons fingerprints are passed on from his parentsD.a criminal can change his fingerprints by damaging the inner skin(2).Fingerprints are used as a method of solving criminal cases because tile system of identification is _.（分数：1.00）A.difficult and expensiveB.easy and expensiveC.simple and expensi
