11、数：1，分数：10.00)England is not a big country: from north to south and from east to west it is only about three hundred miles across. But for a small country it has a surprising range of climate. People who have never visited England, or who have visited only one part of it, often make the mistake of th

12、inking that it is a cold and wet country. Except for the summer months of June to September, this is probably true of the north of England and the Midlands. In the south, however, the climate is much more pleasant. One result is that when people retire from a job in the north they often prefer to mo

13、ve down to the milder south. Perhaps the warmest part of the country is the southwest, which consists of the counties of Devon and Cornwall. The warm Gulf Stream flows across the North Atlantic Ocean from the Gulf of Mexico and makes the coastal regions of the southwest quite warm. Palm trees, bambo

14、o (竹) and many semi-tropical (亚热带的) plants grow well in the southwest of England. Flowers and vegetables ripen (成熟) as much as a month earlier than those elsewhere. Farmers in the area obtain a higher price for their vegetables and flowers because they are ready earlier. In winter there may be sever

15、al feet of snow in other parts of England but there will probably be no snow at all in the southwest. This may be one of the reasons why the southwest is one of England“s most popular holiday areas.（分数：10.00）(1).The distance from the centre of England to the south coast is about _.（分数：2.00）A.one hun

16、dred milesB.three hundred milesC.one hundred and fifty milesD.six hundred miles(2).England is a country _.（分数：2.00）A.with a cold and wet climateB.with a surprising climateC.with a pleasant climateD.with a variety of climates(3).According to the passage, _.（分数：2.00）A.flowers and vegetables from Devon

17、 are on the market one month earlierB.farmers in the southwest grow as many vegetables and flowers as farmers elsewhereC.people in the southwest have to pay a higher price for vegetables and flowersD.vegetables in Cornwall ripen as much as a month earlier than flowers(4).In the north of England and

18、the Midlands, _.（分数：2.00）A.it is cold and wet all the year roundB.the climate is pleasant as a wholeC.it is warm most of the time in a yearD.only the summer is not cold or wet(5).In winter, people in Devon and Cornwall _.（分数：2.00）A.seldom see snowB.never see any snowC.may have several feet of snowD.

19、often see snow四、Passage 2(总题数：1，分数：10.00)How can we get rid of garbage? Do we have enough energy sources to meet our future energy needs? These are two important questions that many people are asking today. Some people think that man might be able to solve both problems at the same time. They sugges

20、t using garbage as an energy source, and at the same time it can save the land to hold garbage. For a long time, people buried garbage or dumped (倾倒) it on empty land. Now, empty land is scarce. But more and more garbage is produced each year. However, garbage can be a good fuel to use. The things i

21、n garbage do not look like coal, petroleum, or natural gas; but they are chemically similar to these fossil (化石) fuels. As we use up our fossil fuel supplies, we might be able to use garbage as an energy source. Burning garbage is not a new idea. Some cities in Europe and the United States have been

22、 burning garbage for years. The heat that is produced by burning garbage is used to boil water. The steam that is produced is used to make electricity or to heat nearby buildings. In Paris, France, some power plants burn almost 2 million metric tons of the cities garbage each year. The amount of ene

23、rgy produced is about the same as would be produced by burning almost a half million barrels of oil. Our fossil fuel supplies are limited. Burning garbage might be one kind of energy source that we can use to help meet our energy needs. This method could also reduce the amount of garbage piling up o

24、n the earth.（分数：10.00）(1).What two problems can man solve by burning garbage?（分数：2.00）A.The shortage of energy and air pollution.B.The shortage of energy and the land to hold garbage.C.Air pollution and the shortage of fossil fuel.D.Air pollution and the shortage of land to hold garbage.(2).Which of

27、s an energy source.(4).What is the author“s attitude?（分数：2.00）A.Delighted.B.Sad.C.Agreeing.D.Disagreeing.(5).The best title for the passage may be _.（分数：2.00）A.Garbage and the EarthB.Fossil Fuel and GarbageC.Land and GarbageD.GarbageEnergy Source五、Passage 3(总题数：1，分数：10.00)Fire can help people in man

28、y ways. But it can be very dangerous. Fire can heat water, warm houses, give light and cook. But fire can burn things, too. It can burn trees, houses, animals or people. Sometimes big fires can burn forests. Nobody knows for sure how people began to use fire. But there are many interesting stories a

29、bout the first time a man or a woman started a fire. One story from Australia tells about a man very, very long time ago. He went up to the sun by a rope (绳子) and brought fire down. Today people know how to make a fire with matches (火柴). Children sometimes like to play with them. But matches can be

30、very dangerous. One match can burn a piece of paper and then it might burn a house. A small fire can become a big fire very fast. Fire kills many people every year. So you must be careful with matches. You should also learn to put out fires. Fires need oxygen (氧气). Without oxygen they will die. Cove

31、r a fire with water, sand, or sometimes with your coat. This keeps the air away from a fire and kills it. Be careful with fire, and it will help you. Be careless with fire, and it will burn you.（分数：10.00）(1).How did people begin to use fire?（分数：2.00）A.Not everybody knows how people began to use fire

Th

35、e research suggests that the pace of economic progress has been rapid and continued for decades, built on the foundations of relative political stability, rising trade, and economic liberalization (自由化) after two world wars. One new study, published recently by the Institute for International Econom

36、ics in Washington, find that the proportion of the 6.1 billion people in the world who live on $1 a day or less shrank from 63 percent in 1950 to 35 percent in 1955 and 12 percent in 1999. By some other measures, the progress has been more modest. Still, economists agree that poverty has plunged in

37、key nations such as India and especially China, thanks to slowing population growth as well as economic freedom. “This is a huge success for the world as a whole,“ says Harvard University economist Richard Cooper. “We are doing something right.“ The news comes as the World Bank is about to open its

38、annual meeting in Washingtonan event that has been troubled in recent years by protests that the Bank and its sister Institution, the International Monetary Fund (IMF 国际货币组织) , have done too little for the world“s poor. The new economic research will not put an end to that dispute. Vast populations

39、remain poor, and many still question the wisdom of World Bank policies. Nonetheless, the research findings are helpful to understand what policies should be followed by those institutions and hundreds of other development groups working very hard to hasten the pace of world economic progress. If dra

40、matic gains are under way, the present policies-calling for open markets, free business activities, and tight monetary controlare working and correct. But critics of IMF and World Bank policies maintain that such economic success stories as Japan, China, South Korea and Singapore are rooted in more

41、than just “free“ markets. These nations have managed to grow rapidly, and thereby reduce poverty, by limiting imports when their domestic industries were young, pushing exports to rich nations, and putting controls on purely international financial flows. The have been open to foreign-owned factorie

42、s but have often insisted that those investors share the knowledge and skill on modern technologies.（分数：10.00）(1).The word “plunged“ in the first paragraph means _.（分数：2.00）A.decreasedB.climbedC.increasedD.dropped into water(2).From the passage, we learn that _.（分数：2.00）A.World Bank has done nothing
