21、20.00)Many theories concerning the causes of juvenile delinquency (crimes committed by young people) focus either on the individual or on society as the major contributing influence. Theories 1 on the individual suggest that children engage in criminal behavior 2 they were not sufficiently penalized

22、 for previous misdeeds or that they have learned criminal behavior through 3 with others. Theories focusing on the role of society that children commit crimes in 4 to their failure to rise above their socioeconomic status 5 as a rejection of middle-class values. Most theories of juvenile delinquency

23、 have focused on children from disadvantaged families, 6 the fact that children from wealthy homes also commit crimes. The latter may commit crimes 7 lack of adequate parental control. All theories, however, are tentative and are 8 to criticism. Changes in the social structure may indirectly 9 juven

24、ile crime rates. For example, changes in the economy that 10 to fewer job opportunities for youth and rising unemployment 11 make gainful employment increasingly difficult to obtain.

25、. More families consist of one parent households or two working parents, 14 , children are likely to have less supervision at home 40() was common in the traditional family 15 . This lack of parental supervision is thought to be an influence on juvenile crime rates. Other 16 causes of offensive acts

26、 include frustration or failure in school, the increased 17 of drugs and alcohol, and the growing 18 of child abuse and child neglect. All these conditions tend to increase the probability of a child committing a criminal act, 19 a direct causal relationship has not yet been established.（分数：20.00）A.

30、ood think. This is the research finding of a team of Japanese doctors, who say that most of our brains are not getting enough exercise and as a result, we are aging unnecessarily soon. Professor Taiju Matsuzawa wanted to find out why otherwise healthy farmers in northern Japan appeared to be losing

31、their ability to think and reason at a relatively early age and how the process of aging could be slowed down. With a team of colleagues at Tokyo National University, he set about measuring brain volumes of a thousand people of different ages and varying occupations. Computer technology enabled the

32、researchers to obtain precise measurements of the volume of the front and side sections of the brain, which relate to intellect and emotion, and determine the human character. The rear section of the brain, which controls functions like eating and breathing, does not contract with age, and one can c

33、ontinue living without intellectual on emotional faculties (功能). Contraction of front and side parts as cells die off was observed in some subjects in their thirties, but it was still not evident in sixty-and seventy-year-old. Matsuzaswa concluded from his tests that there is a simple remedy to the

34、contraction normally associated with age using the head. The findings show in general terms that contraction of the brain begins sooner in people in the country than in the towns. Those least at risk, says Matsuzawa, are lawyers, followed, by university professors and doctors. White collar workers d

35、oing routine work in government offices are, however, as likely to have shrinking brains as the farm worker, bus driver and shop assistant. Matsuzawa“s findings show that thinking can prevent the brain from thinking. Blood must circulate properly in the head to supply the fresh oxygen the brain cell

36、s needed. “The best way to maintain good blood circulation is through using the brain.“ he says, “Think hard and engage in conversation. Don“t rely on pocket calculators.“（分数：10.00）(1).The team of doctors wanted to find out _.（分数：2.00）A.why certain people are aging sooner than othersB.how to make pe

37、ople live longerC.the size of certain people“s brainsD.which people are most intelligent(2).On what are their research findings based?（分数：2.00）A.A survey of farmers in northern Japan.B.Tests performed on a thousand old people.C.The study of brain volumes of different people.D.The latest development

38、of computer technology.(3).The doctor“s test show that _.（分数：2.00）A.our brains shrink as we grow olderB.sixty- year- olds have better brains than thirty- year- oldsC.the front- section of the brain does not shrinkD.some people“s brains have contracted more than other people“s(4).The word “subjects“

39、in paragraph 4 means _.（分数：2.00）A.something to be consideredB.branch of knowledge studiedC.persons chosen to be studied in an experimentD.any member of a state except the supreme ruler(5).According to the passage, which people seem to age slower than the others?（分数：2.00）A.LawyersB.FarmersC.ClerksD.S

40、hop assistants八、Text 2(总题数：1，分数：10.00)To get a chocolate out of a box requires a considerable amount of unpacking: The box has to be taken out of the paper bag in which it arrived, the cellophane wrapper has to be torn off, the lid opened and the paper removed, the chocolate itself then has to be un

41、wrapped from its own piece of paper. But this overuse of wrapping is not confined to luxuries. It is now becoming increasingly difficult to buy anything that is not done up in beautiful wrapping. The package itself is of no interest to the shopper, who usually throws it away immediately. Useless wra

42、pping accounts for much of the refuse put out by the average London household each week. So why is it done? Some of it, like the cellophane on meat, is necessary, but most of the rest is simply competitive selling. This is absurd. Packaging is using up scarce energy and resources and messing up the

43、environment. Recycling is already happening with milk bottles which are returned to the dairies, washed out, and refilled. But both glass and paper are being threatened by the growing use of plastic. More dairies are experimenting with plastic bottles. The trouble with plastic is that it does not ro

44、t. Some environmentalists argue that the only solution to the problem of ever increasing plastic containers is to do away with plastic altogether in the shops, a suggestion unacceptable to many manufacturers who say there is no alternative to their handy plastic packs. It is evident that more resear

45、ch is needed into the recovery and reuse of various materials and into the cost of collecting and recycling containers as opposed to producing new ones. Unnecessary packaging, intended to be used just once, and make things look better so more people will buy them, is clearly becoming increasingly ab

46、surd. But it is not so much a question of doing away with packaging as using it sensibly. What is needed now is a more advanced approach to using scarce resources for what is, after all, a relatively unimportant function.（分数：10.00）(1).“This overuse of wrapping is not confined to luxuries.“ (line 4,

47、paragraphl) means _.（分数：2.00）A.too much wrapping is used for both luxury and ordinary productsB.more wrapping is used for luxuries than for ordinary productsC.more wrapping is needed for ordinary productsD.the wrapping used for luxury products is unnecessary(2).Packaging is important to manufacturer

48、s because _.（分数：2.00）A.they want to attract more shoppersB.shoppers are interested in beautiful packagingC.it is easy to use it againD.packaged things will not go rotten(3).According to the passage, dairies are _.（分数：2.00）A.increasing the use of plastic bottlesB.giving up the use of glass bottlesC.e

49、xperimenting with the use of paper bottlesD.re-using their paper containers(4).Some environmentalists think that _.（分数：2.00）A.plastic packaging should be made more convenientB.shops should stop using plastic containersC.too much plastic is wastedD.no alternative can be found to plastic packaging(5).The author thinks that _.（分数：2.00）A.enough research has been done into recyclingB.people will soon stop using packaging altogetherC.packing is actually useless and could be ignoredD.it is better to produce new materials than to re-use old ones九、Text 3
