27、nd I have some (46) 1 (complain) not about the iPad itself but about the state of digital reading generally. Reading is a subtle thing, and its subtleties are artifacts of a venerable medium: words printed in ink on paper. Glass and pixels arent the same. When I read a physical book, I dont have to

28、look anywhere else to find out how much Ive read. The iPad e-reader, iBooks tries to create the (47) illu 2 of a physical book. The pages seem to turn, and I can the edges of those that remain, but its fake. There are always exactly six unturned pages, no matter (48) 3 I am in the book. Also, there

29、is a larger problem. Books in their digital format look vastly less “finished“, or less genuine than real books.

30、poems in the print edition of The Apple Trees at Olema. But your poems can look almost exactly as ugly-as “e-book-like“ -as the Kindle version of that collection. All the e-book Ive read have been ugly-books by Chang-rae Lee, Alvin Kernan, and Stieg Larsson-though the texts have been wonderful. I di

31、dnt grow up reading texts. I grew up reading books, and this(51) 6(differ) is important. When it comes to digital editions, the(52) 7(assume) seems to be that all books(53)are 8(create) equal. However, nothing could be further from the truth. In the mass migration from print to digital, were seeing

32、a profusion of digital books-many of them out of copyright-that look new and even “HD,“ but which may well have been supplanted by more accurate editions and better translations. We need a digital readers guide-a place where readers can find(54) 9 whether the book theyre about to download is the bes

35、urfers are able to make a living from it. Most of the best professional surfers in the last 30 years, both men and women, have been American or Australian, but surfers from Brazil, Peru and South Africa have also won important competitions. Questions 66 to 70 Answer the following questions with the

36、information given in the assage in a maximum of 10 words for each question.（分数：10.00）(1).Why do most beginners find it difficult t stand up on a surfboard?（分数：2.00）_(2).In what part of the world did surfing probably begin?（分数：2.00）_(3).When did surfing start to become very popular in the United Stat

37、es?（分数：2.00）_(4).What do surfers use wax for?（分数：2.00）_(5).According to the passage, in what part of the world do surfers usually need wetsuits?（分数：2.00）_Section C (10 marks) Questions 71 to 75 are based on the following passage. The latest human development report from the United Nations Developmen

38、t Programmed (UNDP) contains some good news, but also a very serious warning about the threat posed y climate change. The report, published annually since 1990, seeks to asses “human development” around the world, and calculates a “Human Development Index (HDI) for 169 counties. The HDI is based on

39、average income, life expectancy and level of education in a country. Not surprisingly, rich counties tend to have higher HDIs than poor counties, but there are interesting variations in human development among countries with similar levels of economic development, because some have better health and

40、 education systems than others. According to the 2010 report, the county with the highest level of human development is Norway, followed by Australia, New Zealand, the United States and Ireland. Most of the lowest HDIs belong to counties in sub-Saharan Africa. Almost all counties around the worlds h

41、ave higher HDIs now than in 1990, despite the fact that since the 2008 financial crisis, the total number of people living in extreme poverty has increased. The report concludes that most people are healthier, live longer, are better educated and have access to more goods and services. Even in count

42、ries with severe economic problems, peoples level of health and education as generally improved. Although sub-Saharan African countries are at the bottom of the pile in terms of human development, some of them have made significant progress since 1990. The report is critical, however, of the fact ec

43、onomic inequality has increased significantly in the last twenty years, both within and between countries. The greatest threat to improving HDIs in the future, according to the report, is climate change. Economic growth increases average incomes in a country through increasing production and consump

44、tion. However , if this leads to greater emissions of greenhouse gases, as has always been the case in the past, global warning will probably accelerate, and cause severe environmental problems in some parts of the world hat will threaten the livelihoods of huge numbers f people. The progress of the

45、 last twenty years, therefore, might not be sustainable. The only solution, according to the report, I to break the link between economic growth and greenhouse gas emissions-which, needless to say, is easier, said than done.
