To pollute means to contaminate topsoi
15、l or something by introducing impurities which make (31) unfit or unclean to use. Pollution comes (32) many forms. We see it, smell it, taste it, drink it, and stumble through it. We literally lived in and breathe pollution, and (33) surprisingly, it is beginning to threaten our (34) , our happiness
16、, and our civilization.Once we thought of pollution (35) meaning simply the smog the choking, stinging, dirty (36) that hovers over cities. But air pollution, (37) it is still the most dangerous, is only one type of contamination among several (38) attack the most basic life functions.Through the un

22、t 1(总题数：1，分数：5.00)Statistically, each of these new changes in law-enforcement has made some difference to the picture. Yet it seems probably that the factors that have really brought the crime rates down have little to do with policemen or politicians, and more to do with cycles that are beyond thei
23、r control.The first of these is demographic. The fall in the crime rate has coincided with fall in the number of young men between the ages of 15 and 21, the peak age for criminal activity in any society, including America. In the same way, the rise in the crime rate that started in the early 1960s
24、coincided with the teenage years of the baby-boomers. As the boomer generation matured, married, found jobs and shoulder mortgages, so the crime rate fell.This encouraging trend was quickly overshadowed, starting in the mid-1980s, by a new swarm of teenagers caught up in a new sort of depravity: the
25、 craze for crack cocaine. Crack brought with it much higher levels of violence and, in particular, soaring rates of handgun murders by people less than 25 years old. Yet the terror became too much, and the young began to leave crack alone. Within a few years, at least in most big cities, the drug ma
26、rket had stabilized and settled, even moving indoors; the tuff-wars were over, and crack itself had become passe. Studies of Brooklyn by Richard Curtis, of the John Jay College of Criminal Justice, show the clear connection; around 1992, many young bloods decided to drop the dangerous life of the st
27、reet in favor of steady jobs. In direct consequence, the local crime rate fell.Murder rates among Americans older than 25 had already been declining since 1980. Here, according to Alfred Blumstein, a professor of criminology at Carnegie-Mellon University, there may be even longer term social factors
28、 involved. In an age of easy divorce and more casual relationships, men and women are less likely to murder their partners: between 1976 and 1996, such murders fell by 40%. The decline in alcohol consumption, too, means that fewer bar-room brawls leave a litter of corpses on a Friday night.It seems
29、that changing social trends also sometimes lie behind the fall in property crime. Burglars tend not to steal television sets now because almost everyone has one; their value on the street has plummeted, At the same time, the fact that people stay in watching their sets, rather than going out, deters
30、 would-be burglars. Extra garages are standard in the suburbs, to safeguard extra cars; credit cards mean that shoppers carry less cash in their pockets; people working from home, by means of computers, can keep a closer watch over their streets.Lastly, people are going to greater lengths to protect
31、 themselves and their property than they did in the past. This is partly because of the huge fear of crime that preceded the present decline, and partly because even with recent increases in the number of policemen-the ratio of police to violent crimes reported is still way below what it was in the
32、1960s.（分数：5.00）(1).This passage mainly concerns about _.A. the factors influencing the crime rate.B. the demographic causing the fall of crime rate.C. murder rate becoming lower.D. the effort of people to fight against crime.（分数：1.00）A.B.C.D.(2).In early 1970s the crime rate was _.A. the same as tha
33、t in early 1960s.B. lower than that in early 1960s.C. higher than that in mid-1980s.D. the same as that in mid-1980s.（分数：1.00）A.B.C.D.(3).Murder rate among Americans older than 25 declined because _.A. they married and found jobs.B. they had to shoulder mortgage.C. they were in an age of easy divorc
34、e.D. they made great effort to protect themselves.（分数：1.00）A.B.C.D.(4).The word plummet in the 2nd line of the 5th paragraph means _.A. drop.B. disappear.C. enhance.D. stabilize.（分数：1.00）A.B.C.D.(5).Why do people make greater efforts to protect themselves?A. Because they fear the crime preceding the
35、 present decline.B. Because the policeman has become fewer.C. Because they were taught to do so.D. Because their extra garage are standard in the suburb.（分数：1.00）A.B.C.D.九、Text 2(总题数：1，分数：5.00)It ought to be remembered that, as indisputably great a player as Wilt Chamberlain was, he often evoked a p
36、ublic awe closer to loathing than admiration “No one roots for Coliath,“ he lamented to his Los Angeles Lakers teammate Jerry West. The observation was both personally felt and generally interesting in what it says about the way people look at giants. Size(which matters)is an accident of biology, bu
37、t we tend to treat it as an implicit assault on the averageness of the rest of us-a potential menace, an insulting excess-and there is a universal desire to see the big man fall.Chamberlain, who died last week at the age of 63, not only dominated basketball, his presence clarified the character of t
38、he game. If sports were poems, baseball would be a sonnet, basketball free verse, the thing finds its form according to who is doing it. Chamberlain was responsible for major rule changes that altered basketballs structure-all delimiting the ability of giants to operate in the sky over a 10-ft. -hig
39、h basket. By his athleticism, he proved that basketball required the worlds best athletes, not simply the tallest. And, in a way, he also showed it to be a team sport, No matter how talented an individual is, no one player, including the divine Michael, can beat a well-coordinated group of five.Quan
40、tity defined his life and was its curse. His statistics, like his being seemed to have no relation to a terrestrial reality. On March 2, 1962, he set a National Basketball Association record by scoring 100 points in a game against the New York Knicks. He scored the most points in a season (4,029);ha
41、d 50 or more points in a game 118 times; set the record for career rebounds (23,924), rebounds per game (22.9), average points in one season(50.4) . Other numbers recalled last week: seven straight scoring titles and 11 rebound titles (in 14 seasons). To show how complete a player he was, his most r
42、emarkable stat may be that in 1968, he led the league in assists.Not once did he foul out of a game, which says something about the way he played and who he was. Chamberlain hardly ever got into a fight-partly because only the ostentatiously suicidal would start up with him, more because he seemed t
43、o appreciate the gentleness that his construction required. He picked opposing players off the floor when they tripped and fell. That weird shot of his-the monstrous and graceful Dipper Dunk-had the look of a man pouring lava from a vat into a teacup.（分数：5.00）(1).The first paragraph points out that
44、people_.A. were in awe upon ChamberlainB. admired Chamberlain very muchC. often greatly disliked ChamberlainD. treated Chamberlain as an assault on us（分数：1.00）A.B.C.D.(2).According to paragraph 2, Chamberlain showed that basketball_.A. was the free sport for the tallestB. had the strictest rules and

He was a complete and most remarkable player all over the United States.（分数：1.00）A.B.C.D.(4).From that he never fouled out of a game we can learn that_.A. he li
47、ked to be gentle with everyone around himB. he was the player everyone likedC. no one dared to fight against himD. he often offered help when opposing players tripped and fell（分数：1.00）A.B.C.D.(5).The writers main point in writing this article is_.A. to prove that Chamberlain was a great playerB. to compare Chamberlain with MichaelC. to tell how NBA began to be famousD. to show sympathy for giants（分数：1.00）A.B.C.D.十、Text 3(总题数：1，分数：5.00)Peoples attitude toward drugs has become to resemble an emotional roller coaster, careening wildly from dizzy heights of pharmacologic faith to gloomy
