In fact，scientists who study noise say that the average noise level in New York is 72.5 decibels. This i

11、s a little louder than normal conversation，which is 65 decibels. The noise level is the result of so many people and cars in the same area. Now even the insides of taxis are noisy. When you get into a taxi，you hear the voice of a well known singer，sports reporter，or Broadway actress giving instructi

12、ons. Thatt fight. The voice of a famous person tells you what to do. One popular singer gives this message：“Cats have nine lives，but you have only one，so fasten your seat belt!”Other voices say things such as“Dont forget to collect all your belongings. ”(People often leave hats，umbrellas，and bags in

13、 taxis. ) There is a good reason for the messages. There are more than 12,000 cabs in New York，and every year taxis get into more than 15,000 accidents. In an accident，people who dont wear seat belts hit the partition，the glass wall separating the driver and passengers in the taxi. They can hurt the

14、ir foreheads or break their noses or chins. Every year，about 11,000 people are injured in this way. Many people are annoyed by the voices. Cabdrivers in particular dislike the messages. “I play the messages 12 hours a day. I hear the same voices 60 times a day. It makes me crazy，”says Amir，a 45-year

15、-old cabdriver. “But if I dont play the messages，I get fined $100. ”A lot of passengers complain. too. “Its too much noise，”says a passenger. “I asked the driver to turn off the message，but he said he cant. ” Other people think the voices are a great idea. One taxi driver says，“People like to hear t

16、he famous voices,and they put on their seat belts more often. ”And passengers from out of town really like the idea. “Most of the time. taxi drivers are in a bad mood，”says Melanie Benton，who visits New York often on business. “Its nice to hear a cheerful voice when you get into a cab. ” （分数：10.00）(

17、1).The sentence“Cats have nine lives，but you have only one”implies that_.（分数：2.00）A.human beings have only one lifeB.cats live longer than human beingsC.cats will have new lives after they dieD.human beings should value their lives(2).People who are most likely to be injured in a taxi accident are_.

18、（分数：2.00）A.those who wear seat beltsB.those who like messagesC.those who do not wear seat beltsD.those who dislike messages(3).It can be inferred from the passage that a taxi driver hears the same voices_every day.（分数：2.00）A.about 5 times an hourB.about 6 times an hourC.about 50 times an hourD.about

20、 noisiest city in the U. S.B.messages played by taxi drivers are useless.C.messages in taxis should be voiced by famous peopleD.voices from taxis partly caused the high noise level of New YorkPassage TwoQuestions 26 to 30 are based on the following passage. Some people might think that Fathers Day w

21、as established as a holiday to help greeting card companies sell more cards. However，when Fathers Day was first suggested in the early 1900s，Fathers Day cards hadnt been invented yet. The idea of celebrating Fathers Day was actually inspired by Mothers Day. In 1909，Mothers Day was just becoming very

22、 popular in the United States. One day，Sonora Dodd，of Spokane，Washington. was listening to a church talk about setting aside a day to honor ones mother. It gave her the idea to propose a day to honor fathers，and in particular，her own father-William Jackson Smart.Mr. Smart had raised Sonora and her f

23、ive brothers and sisters all by himself after Sonoras mother died in childbirth. As an adult，Sonora realized the selflessness her father had shown in raising his children as a single parent. Her father made all the parental sacrifices. In the daughters eves. her father was a courageous，selfless，and

24、loving man. Mrs. Dodd went to her minister and others about having a church service devoted to fathers on June 5. her fathers birthday. That date was too soon for her minister to prepare a service，so he spoke two weeks later on June 19. It took about a year of working with politicians，religious lead

25、ers，businessmen and the local Young Mens Christian Association to bring life to her idea of an annual Fathers Day. Eventually all her hard work paid off. On June 19，1910，the first Fathers Day was celebrated in Spokane，Washington. In 1972 President Richard Nixon established a permanent national celeb

26、ration of Fathers Day to be held on the third Sunday in June. Since then，fathers have been honored and recognized by their families throughout the U. S. on that date. Fathers Dav has become a day to not only honor your father，but all men who act as a father figure. Stepfathers，uncles，grandfathers，an

27、d adult male friends are all honored on Fathers Day. Its also another day for greeting card companies and shop owners to celebrate because sales of the most popular gifts for Dad(shirts，ties，and electric shavers)increase considerably. （分数：10.00）(1).The passage mainly tells about_.（分数：2.00）A.Mr8. Dod

28、ds love for her fatherB.the origin and establishment of Fathers DayC.the importance of honoring fathers in the U. S.D.Mrs. Dodds contribution to the government decision(2).Mrs. Dodd loved her father because he_.（分数：2.00）A.had a large familyB.was a single parentC.was a respected ministerD.was courage

29、ous，selfless and loving(3).In the United States，the first Fathers Day was celebrated nationwide in_.（分数：2.00）A.1972B.1910C.1909D.1900(4).The author of the passage seems to believe that_.（分数：2.00）A.stepfathers should not be honored on Fathers DayB.Fathers Day has nothing to do with Mothers DayC.Fathe

30、rs Day started with Mrs. Dodds love for her fatherD.card companies should not make money on Fathers Day cards(5).Greeting card companies welcome Fathers Day because_.（分数：2.00）A.their sale increasesB.it is a national holidayC.adult male friends are also honoredD.they can sell ties，shirts and electric

31、 shaversPassage ThreeQuestions 31 to 35 are based on the following passage. This green and blue planet spinning in space is under severe stress. If we continue to exploit the planet at the present rate，human and animal life will be threatened. Human pride will be followed by natures punishment. To s

32、ave our earth and ourselves，we need first develop an unbiased understanding of ourselves，nature and life. Everyone understands the meaning of the sentence“Man should respect animal life and nature”. But the exact meaning of man，nature and animal life is not always clear. Many refer to man and animal

33、s as if they were essentially different. I consider man to be an animal and only differing in degree and not in kind from other animals. Although I discuss in conventional terms human rights and animal rights as if they were separate，strictly speaking，human rights should be considered a branch of an

34、imal rights. The word“nature”is one of the most complex words in the language，but it has developed three main areas of meaning. These are，first，the essential quality and character of something(as in human nature，or the nature of wood)；second，the inherent force which influences the world(as in Mother

35、 Nature)；third，the entire world itself. The last can be taken to include or to exclude human beings. as the phrase man and the natural world implies. I consider humans to be an integral part of nature，although they are also the beings most capable of interfering with its processes. Unfortunately a c

36、entral drive of Western“man”has been to conquer“nature”. as if it were an object separate from him. Hence it has become connnon to distinguish between what is natural(existing without mans interference)and artificial(man-made). In this way，natural growth is opposed to education，civilization to the n

37、atural state. For many urban people living permanently among concrete and glass，nature itself has come to mean little more than the countryside. And this notion of opposition is where the seed of potential destruction lies. （分数：10.00）(1).The word“unbiased”in Line 3 of Para. 1 means_.（分数：2.00）A.unbal

38、ancedB.fairC.partialD.unreasonable(2).As for the relationship between man and animals，the author holds that_（分数：2.00）A.man is a kind of animalsB.man is superior to animalsC.man is the same as animalsD.man and animals are essentially different from each other(3).The word“they”in Line 5 of Para. 2 ref

39、ers to_.（分数：2.00）A.human rightsB.animal rightsC.human beings and animalsD.human rights and animal rights(4).In the authors opinion. the word“nature”indicates_.（分数：2.00）A.a particular kind of thingB.the inherent force which influences the worldC.the entire world itself including human beingsD.the ess

40、ential quality and character of something(5).The very last sentence of the passage implies that_.（分数：2.00）A.urbanization violates the peace of the countrysideB.the people in the cities cannot enjoy the natures beautyC.man cannot destroy nature，as they are different from each otherD.if man goes again
