Most unwillingly.二、BPart Reading (总题数：3，分数：30.00)BPassage 1/BWe all know that it is possible for ordinary people to make their homes on the equator (道), although often they may feel uncomfortably hot there. Millions do it. But as for the North Pole (北极)we know that it is not only a dangerously co

14、ld place, but that people like you and I would find it quite impossible to live there. At the present time only the scientists and explorers can do so, and they use special equipment. (76) UMen have been travelling across and around the equator on wheels, on their feet or in ships for thousands of y

15、ears; but only a few men, with great difficulty and in very recent time, have ever crossed the ice to the North Pole. /USo it may surprise you to learn that, when traveling by air, it is really safer to fly over the North Pole than over the equator. Of course, it is not true about landings in the po

16、lar region, but the weather, if we are flying at a height of 5,000 meters above the Pole is a delight. At 4,000 meters and move above the earth you can always be sure that you will not see a cloud in the sky as far as your eyes can reach. In the tropics (热带), on the other hand, you are not certain t

17、o keep clear of bad weather even at such heights as 18,000 or 20,000 meters.Aeroplanes cant climb as high or as quickly in cold air as in warm. Nor can clouds. (77) UIn practice, this is an advantage to the aeroplane, which is already at a good height when it reaches the polar region and so does not

18、 to climb，while at the same time cold air keeps the clouds down low. /U（分数：10.00）(1).“Millions do it.“ in this sentence “do it“ refers to（分数：2.00）A.feeling uncomfortably hot on the equatorB.flying over the North PoleC.flying over the equatorD.making homes on the equator(2).The polar region is _（分数：2

21、ereB.there are no clouds at allC.they can cross the ice with special equipmentD.it is very coldBPassage 2/BTrees are useful to man in three important ways: they provide him with wood and other products; they give him shade; and they help to prevent droughts and floods.Unfortunately, in many parts of

22、 the world, man has not realized that the third of these services is the most important. (78) UIn his eagerness to make money from trees, he has cut them down in large numbers, only to find that without them he has lost the best friends he had. /UAnd besides, he is usually too careless to plant and

23、look after new trees. So the forests slowly disappear.This does not only mean that man will have fewer trees. The results are even more serious: for where there are trees, their roots break up soil-allowing the rain to sink in-and also bind the soil, thus preventing it from being washed away easily;

24、 but where there are no trees, the rain falls oh hard ground and flows away, causing floods and carrying away the rich top-soil. When all the top-soil is gone, nothing remains but worthless desert.Two thousand years ago a rich and powerful country cut down its trees to build warships, with which to

25、gain itself an empire. It set up the empire but, without its trees, its soil became poor and it grew weak. When the empire fell to pieces; the home country found itself faced with floods and starvation.（分数：10.00）(1).What is the most important service of trees to man according to the passage?（分数：2.00

27、 paid enough attention to planting trees.D.All of the above.(3).Why did the country mentioned in the passage suffer from floods and starvation?（分数：2.00）A.Because an empire was set up.B.Because the empire fell to pieces.C.Because it lost its trees.D.Because too much had been spent on wars.(4).Why doe

28、s land become desert after all trees are cut down?（分数：2.00）A.Because nothing remains on land except floods.B.Because there are no longer trees to keep the rain and protect the top-soil.C.Because too much rain sinks in and washes away the top-soil.D.Because roots of the trees break up the soil.(5).Wh

29、at does the author tell us in this passage?（分数：2.00）A.How trees help prevent droughts and floods.B.The relationship between trees and man.C.How an empire fell to pieces in ancient times.D.A story of trees.BPassage 3/BBirth, marriage and death: these are the greatest events in human life. Many things

30、, good and bad, can happen to us in our lives. (79) UYet there are three days which are usually marked by some kind of special ceremony: the day we are born; the day we get married and the day we die. /UThese are the three main events in life. We only have a choice in the second of these: we can cho

31、ose whether or not to marry. But we have no choice in birth and death. All human beings from the most primitive to the most sophisticated-are affected by these three events. The only thing that differs in each society is the way these events are celebrated. Yet all societies share common characteris

32、tics. Birth is a time of joy. The proud parents receive congratulations and presents on behalf of the new-born. Marriage is also a time of joy. The young couple go through a special wedding ceremony and receive presents to help them set up their home. (80) UDeath is a time of sorrow and is marked by
