Choose the best answer and blacken the corresponding letter on ANSWER SHEET I./BBPassage One/BAmerica is a

17、 country on the move. In unheard of numbers, people of all ages are exercising their way to better health. According to the latest figures, 59 percent of American adults exercise regularly-up 12 percent from just two years ago and more than double the figure of 25 years ago. Even non-exercisers beli

18、eve they would be more attractive and confident if they were more active.It is hard not to get the message. The virtues of physical fitness are shown on magazine covers, postage stamps, and television ads for everything from beauty soaps to travel books. Exercise as a part of daily life did not catc

19、h on until the late 1960s when research by military doctors began to show the health benefits of doing regular physical exercises. Growing publicity (宣传) for races held in American cities helped fuel a strong interest in the ancient sport of running. Although running has Uleveled off/U in recent yea

20、rs as Americans have discovered equally rewarding and sometimes safer forms of exercise, such as walking and swimming, running remain the most popular forms of exercise.As the popularity of exercise continues to mount, so does scientific evidence of its health benefits. The key to fitness is exercis

21、ing the major muscle groups vigorously (强有力地) enough to approximately double the heart rate and keep it doubled for 20 to 30 minutes at a time. Doing such physical exercises three times of more a week will produce considerable improvements in physical health in about three months.（分数：12.00）(1).Accor

22、ding to the passage, what was the percentage of American adults doing regular physical exercises two years ago?（分数：3.00）A.About 70%.B.Nearly 60%.C.Almost 50%.D.More than 12%.(2).A growing interest in sports developed utter _.（分数：3.00）A.research showed their health benefitsB.people got the. message f

25、ecades Asian Americans have become the fastestgrowing the U. S. minority. As their children began moving up through the nations schools, it became clear that a new class of academic achievers was emerging. Their achievements are reflected in the nations best universities, where mathematics, science

26、and engineering departments have taken on a decidedly Asian character. This special liking for mathematics and science is partly explained by the fact that Asian-American students who began their educations abroad arrived in the U.S. with a solid grounding in mathematics but little or no knowledge o

27、f English. They are also influenced by the promise of a good job after college. Asians feel they will be judged more objectively. And the return on the investment in education is more immediate in something like engineering than with an arts degree.Most Asian-American students owe their success to t

28、he influence of parents who are deter- mined that their children take full advantage of what the American educational system has to offer. An effective measure of parental attention is homework. Asian parents spend more time with their children than American parents do, and it helps. Many researcher

29、s also believe there is something in Asian culture that breeds success, such as ideals that stress family values and emphasize education.Both Uexplanations/U for academic success worry Asian Americans because of fears that they feed a typical racial image. Many can remember when Chinese, Japanese an

30、d Filipino immigrants were the Victims of social isolation. Indeed, it was not until 1952 that laws were laid down giving all Asian immigrants the right to citizenship.（分数：12.00）(1).While making tremendous achievements at college, Asian-American students _.（分数：3.00）A.feel they are mistreated because

31、 of limited knowledge of EnglishB.are afraid that their academic successes bear a strong Asian characterC.still worry about unfair treatment in societyD.generally feel it a shame to have to depend on their parents(2).What are the major factors that determine the success of Asian Americans?（分数：3.00）A

32、.A solid foundation in basic mathematics and Asian cultureB.Hard work and intelligenceC.Hard help and a limited knowledge of EnglishD.Asian culture and the American educational system(3).Few Asian-American students major in human sciences mainly because _.（分数：3.00）A.their English is not good enoughB

33、.they are afraid they might meet with unfair judgment in these areasC.there is a wide difference between Asian and Western culturesD.they know little about American culture and society(4).Why do the two “explanations“ (Line 1, Para. 3) worry Asian Americans?（分数：3.00）A.They are afraid that they would

34、 again be isolated from American society in generalB.People would think that Asian students rely on their parents for successC.Asian Americans would be a threat to other minoritiesD.American academic achievements have taken on too strong an Asian characterBPassage Three/BSpace is a dangerous place,

35、not only because of meteors but also because of rays from the sun and other stars. The atmosphere again acts as our protective blanket on earth. Light gets through, and this is essential for plants to make the food which we eat. Heat, too, makes our environment endurable. Various kinds of rays come

36、through the air from outer space, but enormous quantities of radiation from the sun are screened off. As soon as men leave the atmosphere they are exposed to this radiation but their spacesuits or the walls of their spacecraft, if they are inside, do prevent a lot of radiation damage.Radiation is th

37、e greatest known danger to explorers in space. The unit of radiation is called “rem“. Scientists have reason to think that a man can put up with far more radiation than 0.1 ream without being damaged; the figure of 60 rems has been agreed on. The trouble is that it is extremely difficult to be sure

38、about radiation damage-a person may feel perfectly well, but the cells of his or her sex organs may be damaged, and this will not be discovered until the birth of deformed (畸形的) children or even grandchildren. Missions of the Apollo flights have had to cross belts of high radiation and, during the o

39、utward and return journeys, the Apollo crew accumulated a large amount of reams. So far, no dangerous amounts of radiation have been reported, but the Apollo missions have been quite short. We simply do not know yet how men are going to get on when they spend weeks and months outside the protection

40、of the atmosphere, working in a space laboratory. Drugs might help to decrease the damage done by radiation, but no really effective ones have been found so far.（分数：12.00）(1).According to the first paragraph, the atmosphere is essential to man in that（分数：3.00）A.it protects him against the harmful ra

41、ys from spaceB.it provides sufficient light for plant growthC.it supplies the heat necessary for human survivalD.it screens off the falling meteors(2).We know from the passage that _.（分数：3.00）A.exposure to even tiny amounts of radiation is fatalB.the effect of exposure to radiation is slow in coming

42、C.radiation is avoidable in space explorationD.astronauts in spacesuits neednt worry about radiation damage(3).The harm radiation has done to the Apollo crew members _.（分数：3.00）A.is insignificantB.is enormousC.seems overestimatedD.remains unknown(4).It can be inferred from the passage that _.（分数：3.0

43、0）A.the Apollo mission was very successfulB.protection from space radiation is no easy jobC.astronauts will have deformed children of grandchildrenD.radiation is not a threat to well protection space explorersBPassage Four/BWhen I began reading Catch-22, I thought it was a farcical satire on life in

44、 the United States Army Air Force. Later I believed that Mr. Hellers target was modern war and all those who axe responsible for waging it. Still later it seemed that he was attacking social organization and anyone who derives power from it. But by the end of the book it had become plain to me that

45、it is no other phrase will do the human condition itself which is the object of Mr. Heller an outraged fury and disgust.A reviewer must always Ukeep an anxious eye on the state of his currency/U. If he announces too many masterpieces he risks inflation (though it is sometimes forgotten by some of us

46、 that the cowardice of perpetual crabbing (挑剔) receives its own kind of punishment). It does not seem many weeks since I was proclaiming that Malcolm Lowrys Under the Volcano is one of the great English novels of the century; and not long before that I was urging that attention should be paid to the

47、 magnificent and neglected talent of William Gerhardi.But Uat the risk of inflation/U I cannot help writing that Catch-22 is the greatest satirical work in English since Erewhon. For the fact is that all my successive interpretations of this book now seem to have been accurate, even if the earlier o

48、nes were also incomplete. The book has an immense and devastating (讽刺的) theme, but this theme is illustrated, as it should be, by means of an observed reality.I am not suggesting that Catch - 22 is a realistic account of life in the wartime Air Force of America or any other country. The method of satire is to inflate (放大) reality so that all its partially concealed blemishes (缺点) turn into monstrous and apparent deformations. The effect of good satire is to make us laugh with horror. And this means that social and person- al evils which
