9、y house that is (23) up to date. It is two blocks from the sea and you may find this a disadvantage(不利), but, (24) all, the opening of the summer (25) is only a few weeks from now, and finding a house (26) to the ocean than that is (27) out of the question. The house Im speaking of has two bedrooms

10、and a porch(门廊) that can be (28) for sleeping. For this reason, I consider it as a very good buy. The plumbing(给水管道) is out of order at the (29) , but this will be repaired, of course. The price is reasonable; as a matter of fact, it is less than is being asked for comparable(同等的) houses elsewhere i

Its just one more incredible result of the development of microprocessors-those tiny parts of a computer commonly

15、 known as “silicon chips“. So give up going to classes, stop buying more textbooks and relax. In a couple of years you wont need the international language of English.Already Texas instruments in the United States is developing an electronic translation machine. Imagine a Spanish secretary, for exam

16、ple, who wants to type a letter from the boss to a business man in Sweden. All he or she will have to do is this; first type the letter in Spanish. The letter will appear on a television screen. After a few seconds the translated letter will appear on another television screen in Stockholm in perfec

17、t Swedish.And thats not all. Soon a computer will be able to teach you English, if you really want to learn the language. Youll sit in front of a television screen and practise endless structures. The computer will tell you when you are correct and when you are wrong. It will even talk to you becaus

18、e the silicon chips can change electrical impulses into sounds. And clever programmers can predict the responses you, the learner, are likely to make.So think of it. You will be able to teach yourself at your own pace. You will waste very little time, and you can work at home. And if after all that,

19、 you still cant speak English you can always use the translating machine. In a few years, therefore, perhaps there will be no need for BBC Modern English, or BBC English by Radio programs-no more textbooks or teachers of English. Instead of buying an exciting new textbook, the computer will ask you

20、to replace it with microprocessor one thousand nine hundred and eighty-four. Fast, reliable and efficient language learning and translating facilities will be available to you. Think of that no more tears or embarrassing moments. One little problem is that a computer cant laugh yet- but the scientis

21、ts are working on it. Happy learning!（分数：9.00）(1).Silicon chips are _.（分数：3.00）A.microprocessorsB.the result of the development of microprocessorsC.the computer itselfD.parts of microprocessors(2).According to the writer, “you wont need the international language of English“ because _.（分数：3.00）A.lea

22、rning English will no longer be a difficult taskB.textbooks are no longer necessaryC.its better to buy a computer than to go to classesD.the computer will be able to translate any language for you(3).“Texas Instruments“ in the 2nd paragraph is probably _.（分数：3.00）A.those instruments used to fit comp

23、utersB.electronic translation machinesC.a corporation-producing computing machinesD.something other computersBThe old idea that child prodigies(神童)“burn themselves“ or “overtax their brains“ in the early years, therefore, are prey to failure and (at worst)mental illness is just a myth. As a matter o

24、f fact, the outstanding thing that happens to bright children is that they are very likely to grow into bright adults.To find this out, 1,500 gifted persons were followed up to their thirty-fifth year with these results.On adult intelligence tests, they scored as high as they did as children. They w

25、ere, as a group, in good health, physically and mentally. Eighty-four percent of their group were married and seemed content with their life.About 70 percent had graduated from colleges, though only 30 percent had graduated with honors. A few had even flunked out (退学), but nearly half of these had r

26、eturned to graduate.Of the men, 80 percent were in one of the professions or in business, managers or semi- professional jobs. The women who had remained single had offices, business, or professional occupations.The group had published 90 books and 1,500 articles in scientific, scholarly, and litera

27、ry magazines and had collected more than 100 patents(专利权).In a material .way they didnt do badly either. Average income was considerably higher among the gifted people, especially the men, than for the country as a whole, despite their comparative youth when last surveyed.In fact, far from being str

28、ange, maladjusted(难以适应)people locked in an ivory tower, most of the gifted were turning their early promises into practical reality.（分数：12.00）(1).The main idea of the passage is _.（分数：3.00）A.how many gifted children turned successful when they grew up.B.that bright children were unlikely to physical

29、ly and mentally healthy.C.that gifted children were most likely to become bright grown-ups.D.that when the bright children grew up, they would become ordinary.(2).From the passage, we can conclude that _.（分数：3.00）A.most of the gifted children became white collarsB.half of the gifted followed up grad

30、uated from all collegesC.each of the talented published at least one articleD.bright men got higher income than bright women(3).Which of the following is mentioned in the passage?（分数：3.00）A.The gifted could not be fit for their social positions.B.Most of the bright and successful women kept single.C

31、.The gifted men got full marks in intelligence tests.D.Most of the gifted appeared satisfied with their lif(4).The explanation of the underlined “turning their early promises into practical reality“ is _.（分数：3.00）A.earning their living and keeping promisesB.doing practical jobs and facing realityC.d

32、oing what they have promisedD.realizing what they were expectedCHaving taken a room at the hotel which he had been instructed to stay, Smallwood went out; it was a lovely day, early in August, and the sun shone in an unclouded sky. He had not been to Lucerne Since he was a boy, but remembered a cove

33、red bridge, though not clearly, a great stone lion and a church in which he had sat, bored yet impressed while they played an organ(风琴) ;and now wandering along a shady quay (码头), he tried not so much to find his way about a half-forgotten scene as to reform in his mind some recollection(回忆) of the

34、shy and eager boy, so impatient for life, who so long ago had wandered there . But it seemed to him that the most lively of his memories was not of himself, but of the crowd; he seemed to remember the sun and the heat and the people; the train was crowded and so was the hotel, the lake steamers were

35、 packed and on the quays and in the streets you found your way among the holiday-makers. They were fat and old and ugly and strange.Now, in wartime, Lucerne was as deserted as it must have been before the world discovered that Switzerland was the play-ground of Europe. Most of the hotels were closed

36、, the streets were empty, the boats for hire rocked(摇晃)idly at the waters edge and there was none to take them, and in the avenue by the lake the only persons to be seen were serious Swiss taking their dogs for their daily walk . Smallwood felt happy and, sitting down on a bench that faced the water

37、, surrendered (听任)himself to the sensation. The blue water, snowy mountains, and their beauty hit you in the face. So long, at all event, as the fine weather lasted he was prepared to enjoy himself. He didnt see why he should not at least try to combine pleasure to himself with advantage to his coun

38、try.（分数：12.00）(1).Smallwood went to Lucerne _.（分数：3.00）A.to enjoy the beautiful scenery of the areaB.to finish a special taskC.to visit his friend thereD.to get in touch with the shy and eager boy(2).He felt that the city _.（分数：3.00）A.was more crowded than it used to beB.had changed out of all recog

39、nitionC.had been ruined by becoming a holiday resortD.was quieter than he remembered it(3).He was prepared to enjoy himself as long as _.（分数：3.00）A.he was serving his countryB.he was making a profitC.the weather continued like thisD.he could stay in Lucerne(4).After reading the passage, we can draw

40、a conclusion that _.（分数：3.00）A.Smallwoods former visit to Lucerne was made in peacetimeB.Smallwood was pleased by the sound of the organ this timeC.Smallwood was very nervous when he got to LucerneD.A war would soon break out in LucerneDThe Norwegian Government is doing its best to keep the oil indu

41、stry under control. A new law limits exploration to an area south of the southern end of the long coastline; production limits have been laid down(though these have already been raised); and oil companies have not been allowed to employ more than a limited number of foreign workers. But the oil indu

42、stry has a way of getting over such problems, and few people believe that the Government will be able to hold things back for long.Ever since the war, the Government has been carrying out a program of development in the area north of the Arctic Circle. For the past few years this program has had a g

43、reat deal of success: Tromso has been built up into a local capital with a university, a large hospital and a healthy industry. But the oil industry has already started to draw people south, and within a few years the whole northern city could be in ruins.The effects of the oil industry would not be

44、 limited to the north, however. With nearly 100 per cent employment, everyone can see a situation developing in which the service industries and the tourist industry will lose more of their workers to the oil industry. Some smaller industries might even disappear altogether when it becomes cheaper t

45、o buy goods from abroad.The real argument over oil industry is its effects on the Norwegian way of life. Farmers and fishermen do not make up most of the population, but they are an important part of it because Norwegians see in them many of the qualities that they regard with pride as real Norwegia

46、n. And it is the farmers and the fishermen who are most against the oil industry because of the damage that it might cause to the sea and to the countryside and to the whole country. One Norwegian politician said last week, “We will soon be changed beyond all recognition. /（分数：12.00）(1).“We will soo

47、n be changed beyond all recognition.“ in the last paragraph most exactly means “ _.“（分数：3.00）A.Norway will be changed so much that it can hardly be recognizedB.The Norwegian way of life will change greatly, as we recognizeC.We cannot recognize the Norwegian oil industry as it develops so quicklyD.Th

48、e Norwegian government cannot carry out the law against the changing oil industry(2).The Norwegian Government has tried to _.（分数：3.00）A.encourage the oil companies to discover new oil resourcesB.prevent oil companies from employing more people from northern NorwayC.help the oil companies solve many

49、of their problemsD.keep the oil industry to something near its present size(3).According to the passage, the oil industry might lead to _ in northern Norway.（分数：3.00）A.the development of industryB.a growth in populationC.the failure of the development programD.the development of new towns(4).Norwegian farmers and fishermen have an important effect because _.（分数：3.00）A.they form such a large part of
