The rock of the earth“s crust (地壳) may have a fault, a kind of break in the surface. The blocks which make up the earth move, and sometimes this may caus
7、e the sides of the fault to move up and down or lengthways (纵向地) against each other. When one piece of rock starts to rub on another with great force, a lot of energy is used. This energy is changed into vibrations (震动) and it is these vibrations that we reef as an earthquake. The vibrations can tra
8、vel thousands of kilometers and so an earthquake in Turkey may be felt in Greece. What to do during an earthquake? At school As soon as the earthquake starts, students should get under the desks immediately and wait until the teacher tells them it is safe to come out. The teacher should, at the same
9、 time, go immediately to the teacher“s desk, get underneath (在下面) it and stay there till the danger is over. Students must not argue with the teacher or question instructions. As soon as the tremors (震动) stop, all students should walk towards the exit and go straight to the school playground or any
10、open space such as a square or a park. They must wait there until the teacher tells them it is safe to go. At home If you are at home when the earthquake occurs, get immediately under the table in the living room or kitchen. Choose the biggest and strongest table you can find. You must not go anywhe
11、re near the window and don“t go out onto the balcony (阳台). Once the tremors have stopped, you can come out from under the table but you must leave the building straight away. You should walk down the stairs and should not use the lift-there may be a power cut as a result of the earthquake and you co
12、uld find yourself trapped inside the lift for hours. In the street If you are in the street when the earthquake takes place, do not stand near buildings, fences or wallsmove away as quickly as possible arid try to find a large open space to wait in. Standing under trees could also be dangerous.（分数：7

16、) and is taking astronomers (天文学家) further back to the Big Bang than they ever thought possible. Located 2,600 metres up in the Chilean Andes, it has four huge mirrors, each about the size of a London bus. The VLT is so powerful it can spot a burning match 10,000 kilometres away. 2This astonishing p
17、ower will allow astronomers to see events in space from the birth of stars to the collision (碰撞) of galaxies (星系) on the edge of the cosmos (宇宙). The VLT is giving astronomers their best-ever view of the cosmos. The power of the VLT to see the smallest detail at the furthest distances makes its desi
18、gners amazed. 3Take the case of Eta Carinae, one of the most explosive stars in the universe. This star produces ultraviolet laser rays (紫外线) and it will destroy itself in a few million years“ time. It is five times brighter than the sun and when it explodes it is going to be a sight worth waiting f
19、or! 4But it is at distances of millions, even billions, of light years that the VLT really shows its power. The VLT can detect light that set out on its journey before the earth even existed. This gives astronomers their first-ever detailed views of events that took place in the earliest days of the
20、 cosmos. 5In other words, the VLT is a kind of a time machine. It takes astronomers back to a time when complete galaxies crashed into each other. The effects of these past collisions can now be seen by scientists, and astronomers believe the telescope will reveal more about these exciting events in
21、 the years to come. One day, we might be able to say we have traveled back to the beginning of time, and we will have a much clearer picture of how our planet was born.（分数：24.96）(1).AEvents that took place before the earth existed BPower of the telescope CDetails of Eta Carinae DInvention of a time

It“s a Breeze
24、.The graceful wooden windmills that have broken up the flat Dutch landscape for centuriesa national symbol like wooden shoes and tulipsyielded long ago to ungainly metal-pole turbines. Now, windmills are breaking into a new frontier. Though still in its teething stages, the “urban turbine“ is a high
25、-tech windmill designed to generate energy from the rooftops of busy cities. Lighter, quieter, and often more efficient than rural counterparts, they take advantage of the extreme turbulence and rapid shifts in direction that characterize urban wind patterns. Prototypes have been successfully tested
26、 in several Dutch cities, and the city government in the Hague has recently agreed to begin a large-scale deployment in 2003. Current models cost US $8,000 to US $12,000 and can generate between 3,000 and 7,000 kilowatt hours of electricity per year. A typical Dutch household uses 3,500 kilowatt hou
27、rs per year, while in the United States, this figure jumps to around 10,000 kilowatt hours. But so far, they are being designed more for public or commercial buildings than for private homes. The smallest of the current models weigh roughly 200 kilograms and can be installed on a roof in a few hours
28、 without using a crane. Germany, Finland and Denmark have also been experimenting with the technology, but the ever-practical Dutch are natural pioneers in urban wind power mainly because of the lack of space. The Netherlands, with 16 million people crowded into a country twice the size of Slovenia,
29、 is the most densely populated in Europe. Problems remain, however, for example, public safety concerns, and so strict standards should be applied to any potential manufacturer. Vibrations are the main problem in skyscraper-high turbine. People don“t know what it would be like to work there, in an o
30、ffice next to one of the big turbines. It might be too hectic. Meanwhile, projects are under way to use minimills to generate power for lifeboats, streetlights, and portable generators. “I think the thing about wind power is that you can use it in a whole range of situations,“ said Corin Millais, of
31、 the European Wind Energy Association. “It“s a very local technology, and you can use it right in your backyard, but I don“t think anybody wants a nuclear power plant in their backyard.“（分数：15.00）(1).What are the symbols of the Netherlands according to the first paragraph?（分数：3.00）A.The flat landsca

36、ting decade for the United Kingdom and indeed for other industrialized countries. The political, social and economic autonomic reflexes in operation for the greater part of this century will have to give way to the new as conditions change. Paramount amongst these changes is the advent of microelect
37、ronics with their ability to increase productivity and the end of cheap, easily manipulated sources of energy. Together these will undoubtedly change the pattern of industrialization and industrialized life in a radical manner not seen in the UK since the early 19th century. Most technological chang
38、es are somewhat less than fundamental. Many act on an individual process of industry and so their effects on the general economy can be boxed off. Others act on the demand side with new products, often for new markets. Microelectronics, though, are different. It is difficult to think of parts of the
39、 economy on which they will not have an impact; it is especially very difficult to think of the many new consumer products that will evolve. It is already being used, in productive processes through robotics, in production planning through cheap computers, as cheap and easy to maintain components, a
40、nd through telecommunications, teletext systems and word processing to provide, transmit and store information. The resulting large increases in productivity will mean that increased levels of output will be produced using fewer resources of manpower, raw materials and energy. On the face of it this
41、 has to be a good thing, it opens vistas that were previously closed. The cost, however, is measured in terms of the resulting job losses, job changes and lack of new jobs. If we sit back and allow the market to work allocating wealth and jobs-in other words-continue as we are at present, either the
42、 technologies will not be introduced at all or there will be social confrontation on a massive scale. This new technology improves productivity at precisely the time world trade growth is declining, and this is likely to diminish even further given the responses to the shortage of energy sources. Th
43、is will almost certainly mean that our ability to supply will outstrip (超过) our ability to demand, giving a classic high unemployment.（分数：15.00）(1).The most important changes in the 1980s _.（分数：3.00）A.are affecting individual industriesB.ate not evident in the UKC.concern microelectronics and energy
44、D.are being caused by changes of attitudes(2).According to the text, developments in technology usually _.（分数：3.00）A.have far-reaching effects in a wide range of industriesB.increase unemployment significantlyC.affect only limited areas of the economyD.affect the general economy considerably(3).The
45、large increase in productivity as a result of microelectronics _.（分数：3.00）A.will help to reduce social inequalityB.will mean a corresponding increase in job opportunitiesC.will have positive and negative consequencesD.will create greater prosperity(4).According to the writer, what will happen if we
46、allow market forces alone to allocate wealth and jobs?（分数：3.00）A.World trade will immediately start to declineB.The new technological developments may not be brought into the best possible wayC.Resources will be allocated in the best possible wayD.There will be great social advances(5).What does “bo
47、x off“ mean in the second paragraph?（分数：3.00）A.“separate“B.“confine“C.“put away“D.“shut up“七、第三篇(总题数：1，分数：15.00)Computers in CarsYou“re far from home on a lonely road. Shadowy forests stretch away on both sides. A thick mist (雾) makes it difficult to see far beyond your car“s windshield (挡风玻璃). “Can
48、 this be route 90A?“ you wonder. If it is, you should be near a town. Yet there“s no hint of one. Night is closing in. And you“re low on gasoline. This is a situation where an in-car computer that can navigate would be a big help. A car computer that navigates? Yes! Such computers exist. Several exp
49、erimental models are being tested by General Motors, Ford, Chrysler, and several foreign car makers. These computers vary in detail. But they all contain series of maps on videodiscs or videotapes. For example, one computer system contains 13,300 maps covering the continental US. Before starting out on a trip, a driver can type in the code for the region he or she plans to drive through. The computer then shows a map of that region. At the same time, a tiny radio receiver linked to the computer goes to work. It picks up signals from navigation satel
