23、第三部分 阅读理解(总题数：0，分数：0.00)AWe found that bar at last. I didnt have to ask again, for there it was in big red neon letters over the window-Star Bar. There were some iron tables outside with plastic chairs around them. A few people sat around, looking at a portable television set that someone had brough

24、t out of the bar. They were all in thin summer dresses or short shirts; even at that late hour it was stifling. Two thin dogs lay under one of the tables with their tongues out, and some of the women were fanning them-selves unenthusiastically (无精打采地) with magazines.“Hes not here,“ I said, after a q

25、uick look around. The television was speaking out an advertisement for a detergent (洗衣粉) , and the people sitting round had their eyes glued to the picture of a woman proudly showing how white her husbands underwear was after having been washed. They took no notice of us at ail.“Well, what did you e

26、xpect?“ replied Fergus, yawning (打呵欠).“ Its only half past nine; and he said he would be here at nine. You ought to know Graig by this time.

29、Graig had been delayedD.Graig was always lateBMost people have had a dog or wanted one as their companion at some time in their lives. If you are thinking of buying a dog, however, you should first decide what sort of companion you need and whether the dog is likely to be happy in your house. Specia

30、lists (专家) advice is useful to help you choose the most suitable kind of dog. But in part the decision depends on common sense.Different dogs were developed to perform specific tasks. So, if you want a dog to protect you, or your house, for example, you should choose the one that has the right size

31、and characteristics. You must also be ready to devote (投入) a great deal of time to training the dog when it is young and give it the exercise it needs throughout its life, unless you live in the countryside and can let it run freely.Dogs are demanding pets. Cats love the house and so are satisfactor

32、y with their place where there is secure, but a dog is loyal to its master and consequently wants him to show proof of his affection. The first consideration in buying a dog is whether the dog is likely to be happy in the surroundings you can provide. The best time to buy a baby dog is when it is be

33、tween 6 and 8 weeks old so that it can transfer its love from its mother to its master. If baby dogs have not established a relationship with the human being until they are over three months old, their strong relationship will always be with dogs. They are likely to be too shy when they are brought

34、out into the world to be- come good pets.（分数：5.00）(1).Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?（分数：1.00）A.You can always get help from the specialists.B.It is common sense that is the most important when choosing a dog.C.You should decide what kind of dog you want.D.Size and chara

35、cteristics of the dogs should be considered too.(2).What is mentioned as a consideration in buying a dog?（分数：1.00）A.The color of the dog.B.The price of the dog.C.Whether the dog will fit the environment.D.Whether the dog will get along with the other pets in the house.(3).A dog is a more demanding p

36、et than a cat because_.（分数：1.00）A.it must be trained so that it wont biteB.it demands more food and spaceC.it needs more love and careD.it must be looked after carefully(4).Why is it advised to buy a baby dog under three months old?（分数：1.00）A.Its easier to buy a baby dog under three months old.B.The

37、y are less likely to be shy with human beings.C.They are less likely to run away.D.Its easier for them to form a relationship with their masters.(5).The underlined word “affection“ (Line 1213) refers to_.（分数：1.00）A.loveB.effectC.tieD.relationshipCEvery year landslides (滑坡) cause 25 to 50 deaths and

38、$1.5 billion in damage in the United States. They account for 15 percent of the deaths from natural disasters in Europe. And in December, a single event killed more than 200 people in the Philippines. Sending workers to stabilize mountainsides using steel bars and cement (水泥) can help prevent disast

39、er, but it introduces new difficulties. Shaking drills produce harmful dust and loosen heavy, dangerous debris (岩屑). “Its quite a risky job, “says Giorgio Pezzuto of DAppolonia, an engineering company in Italy.DAppolonia, working with eight other companies, may have an answer: a three-ton robot call

40、ed Roboclimber. “The idea is to operate a machine far away that can drill without a human being on board,“ says Pezzuto, the manager for the project, which is supported by the European Commission. Engineers claim that the machine will be faster and cheaper than manual labor. The robot, a large radio

41、-controlled four-legged mechanical spider, has cost at least $2 million so far. The final product should be able to climb unstable mountainsides, drill holes, insert bars and cement, and collect data on the stability. Testing should begin in May.（分数：4.00）(1).The underlined word “event“ ( Paragraph 1

42、 ) refers to_.（分数：1.00）A.landslideB.machineC.earthquakeD.flood(2).What is the purpose in writing this text?（分数：1.00）A.Telling people how serious the damage caused by landslides is.B.Telling people that sending workers to stabilize mountainsides is a risky job.C.Introducing a product that can be used

43、 to stabilize mountainsides.D.Showing people how to use a new product.(3).What does the robot look like?（分数：1.00）A.A human being.B.A spider.C.A truck.D.A drill.(4).The biggest advantage of this product is that_.（分数：1.00）A.it will be faster and cheaper than manual laborB.it can climb mountainsides, d

44、rill holes, insert bars and cementC.it can collect data on the slopes stabilityD.it can drill without a human being on boardDTo fight a noise by making more noise sounds strange, but thats exactly what motor engineers are doing in Germany and some other countries.Carmakers research and development l

45、aboratories have already proved that mixing more noise with the help of loudspeakers can reduce the unwanted noise. Physicists have known about the technique for a long time. Sound is made up of pressure waves in the air. If two sound waves of the same frequency (频率) mix so that the highest point of

46、 one wave happens at the same time as the lowest point of the other wave, the result is no sound. Therefore, by producing a perfect copy of the noise and delaying it by half a wave cycle (周期), we can kill the unwanted noise. Using this technique many carmakers are racing to develop noise killing sys

47、tems (系统) both inside and outside the cars.Another good thing about the use of noise killing systems is that it saves the need for a silencer; this not only reduces the weight of a car, but also makes the motor burn less fuel and work better.Some engineers believe that the noise killing system will

48、be used in most cars within a few years. But the carmakers haven t decided if they will carry it into production because it would add several hundred dollars to the cost of their cars.（分数：3.00）(1).Which of the following gives a general idea of how the noise killing system works?（分数：1.00）A.By producing pressure waves going in the opposite direction.B.By mixing high frequency sound waves with low frequency sound waves.C.By mixing new sound waves with the noise and sending them out together.D.By making copies of the unwanted sound waves and letting them out a little
