Pollution comes (32) many forms. We see it, smell it, taste it, drink it, and stumble through it. We literally lived in and br

But air pollution, (37) it is still the most dangerous, is only one

By (40) sewage and chemicals into (41) and lakes, we have contaminated our drinking water. We are polluting the oceans, too, (42) t

But this problem is intensified by our “throw-away“ technology. Each year Americans (45) of 7 million autos, 20 million tons of waste pap

Yet for all the talk of a fo

23、rthcoming technological utopia, little attention has been given to the implications of these developments for the poor. As with all new high technology, while the West concerns itself with the “how“, the question of “for whom“ is put aside once again.Economists are only now realizing the full extent

24、 to which the communications revolution has affected the world economy. Information technology allows the extension of trade across geographical and industrial boundaries, and transnational corporations take full advantage of it. Terms of trade, exchange and interest rates and money movements are mo

25、re important than the production of goods. The electronic economy made possible by information technology allows the haves to increase their control on global markets with destructive impact on the have-nots.For them the result is instability. Developing countries which rely on the production of a s

26、mall range of goods for export are made to feel like small parts in the international economic machine. As “futures“ are traded on computer screens, developing countries simply have less and less control of their destinies.So what are the options for regaining control? One alternative is for develop

27、ing countries to buy in the latest computers and telecommunications themselves so-called “development communications“ modernization. Yet this leads to long-term dependency and perhaps permanent constraints on developing countries economies.Communications technology is generally exported from the US,

28、 Europe or Japan; the patents, skills and ability to manufacture remain in the hands of a few industrialized countries. It is also expensive, and imported products and services must therefore be bought on credit usually provided by the very countries whose companies stand to gain.Furthermore, when n

29、ew technology is introduced there is often too low a level of expertise to exploit it for native development. This means that while local elites, foreign communities and subsidiaries of transnational corporations may benefit, those whose lives depend on access to the information are denied it.（分数：5.

31、ts of the poor countries have not been given enough considerationC. the exports of the poor countries should be increasedD. communications technology in developing countries should be modernized（分数：1.00）A.B.C.D.(3).Why does the author say that the electronic economy may have a destructive impact on

32、developing countries?A. Because it enables the developed countries to control the international market.B. Because it destroys the economic balance of the poor countries.C. Because it violates the national boundaries of the poor countries.D. Because it inhibits the industrial growth of developing cou

33、ntries.（分数：1.00）A.B.C.D.(4).The development of modern communications technology in developing countries may _.A. hinder their industrial productionB. cause them to lose control of their tradeC. force them to reduce their share of exportsD. cost them their economic independence（分数：1.00）A.B.C.D.(5).Th

34、e authors attitude toward the communications revolution is _.A. positive B. critical C. indifferent D. tolerant（分数：1.00）A.B.C.D.九、Text 2(总题数：1，分数：5.00)While still catching up to men in some spheres of modern life, women appear to be way ahead in at least one undesirable category. “Women are particul

35、arly susceptible to developing depression and anxiety disorders in response to stress compared to men,“ according to Dr Yehuda, chief psychiatrist at New Yorks Veterans Administration Hospital.Studies of both animals and humans have shown that sex hormones somehow affect the stress response, causing

36、 females under stress to produce more of the trigger chemicals than do males under the same conditions. In several of the studies, when stressed-out female rats had their ovaries (the female reproductive organs) removed, their chemical responses became equal to those of the males.Adding to a womans

37、increased dose of stress chemicals, are her increased “opportunities“ for stress. “Its not necessarily that women dont cope as well. Its just that they have so much more to cope with,“ says Dr Yehuda. “Their capacity for tolerating stress may even be greater than mens,“ she observes, “its just that

38、theyre dealing with so many more things that they become worn out from it more visibly and sooner. “Dr Yehuda notes another difference between the sexes. “I think that the kinds of things that women are exposed to tend to be in more of a chronic or repeated nature. Men go to war and are exposed to c

39、ombat stress. Men are exposed to more acts of random physical violence. The kinds of interpersonal violence that women are exposed to tend to be in domestic situations, by, unfortunately, parents or other family members, and they tend not to be one-shot deals. The wear-and-tear that comes from these

40、 longer relationships can be quite devastating.“Adeline Alvarez married at 18 and gave birth to a son, but was determined to finish college. “I struggled a lot to get the college degree. I was living in so much frustration that that was my escape, to go to school, and get ahead and do better. “ Late

41、r, her marriage ended and she became a single mother. “Its the hardest thing to take care of a teenager, have a job, pay the rent, pay the ear payment, and pay the debt. I lived from paycheck to paycheck.“Not everyone experiences the kinds of severe chronic stresses Alvarez describes. But most women

42、 today are coping with a lot of obligations, with few breaks, and feeling the strain. Alvarezs experience demonstrates the importance of finding ways to diffuse stress before it threatens your health and your ability to function.（分数：5.00）(1).Which of the following is true according to the first two

43、paragraphs?A. Women are biologically more vulnerable to stress.B. Women are still suffering much stress caused by men.C. Women are more experienced than men in coping with stress.D.

45、d violentC. durable and frequent D. trivial and random（分数：1.00）A.B.C.D.(4).The sentence “I lived from paycheck to paycheck“ (Lines 45, Para. 5) shows that _.A.

47、.C.D.十、Text 3(总题数：1，分数：5.00)Banking is about money; and no other familiar commodity arouses such excesses of passion and dislike. Nor is here any other about which more nonsense is talked. The type of thing that comes to mind is not what is normally called economics, which is inexact rather than nonsensical, and only in the same way as all sciences are at the point where they try to predict peoples behavior and its consequences. Indeed most social sciences and, for example, medicine could probably be described in the same way.However, it is common to hear assertions of the kind “if you
