People have generally viewed personal growth as an external result or U(31) /U that can easily be identified U(32)

21、 /U measured. The worker who gets a promotion, the student U(33) /U grades improve, the foreigner who learns a new language all these are examples of people who have measurable U(34) /U to show for their efforts. U(35) /U contrast, the process of personal growth is U(36) /U more difficult to determi

22、ne, since U(37) /U definition it is a journey and not the specific signposts or landmarks U(38) /U the way. The process is not the road itself, but U(39) /U the attitudes and feelings people have, their caution or courage, as they encounter new experiences and unexpected obstacles. In this U(40) /U

26、ection Readi(总题数：5，分数：35.00)BPart A/BRead the following texts and-answer the questions which accompany them by choosing A, B, C or D. Mark your answers on ANSWER SHEET 1.Text 1The destruction of our natural resources and contamination of our food supply continue to occur, largely because of the extr

27、eme difficulty in affixing legal responsibility on those who continue to treat our environment with reckless abandon. Attempts to prevent pollution by legislation, economic incentives and friendly persuasion have been met by lawsuits, personal and industrial denial and long delays not only in accept

28、ing responsibility, but more importantly, in doing something about it. It seems that only when the government decides it can afford tax incentives or production sacrifices is there any initiative for change. Where is industrys and our recognition that protecting mankinds great treasure is the single

29、 most important responsibility? If ever there will be time for environmental health professionals to come to the frontlines and provide leadership to solve environmental problems,that time is now.We are being asked, and, in fact, the public is demanding that we take positive action. It is our respon

30、sibility as professionals in environmental health to make the difference. Yes, the ecologist, the environmental activists and the conservationists serve to communicate, stimulate thinking and promote behavioral change. However, it is those of us who are paid to make the decisions to develop, improve

31、 and enforce environmental standards, I submit, who must lead the charge.We must recognize that environmental health issues do not stop at city limits, county lines, state or even federal boundaries. We can no longer afford to be tunnel-visioned in our approach. We must visualize issues from every p

32、erspective to make the objective decisions. We must express our views clearly to prevent media distortion and public confusion.I believe we have a three-part mission for the present. First, we must continue to press for improvements in the quality of life that people can make for themselves. Second,

33、 we must investigate and understand the link between environment and health. Third, we must be able to communicate technical information in a form that citizens can understand. If we can accomplish these three goals in this decade, maybe we can finally stop environmental degradation, and not merely

34、hold it back. We will then be able to spend pollution dollars truly on prevention rather than on bandages.（分数：5.00）(1).We can infer froom the first two paragraphs that the industrialists disregard environmental protection chiefly because _.（分数：1.00）A.they are unaware of the consequences of what they

35、 are doingB.they are reluctant to sacrifice their own economic interestsC.time has not yet come for them to put due emphasis on itD.it is difficult for them to take effective measures(2).The main task now facing ecologists, environmental activists and conservationists is _.（分数：1.00）A.to prevent poll

36、ution by legislation, economic incentives and persuasionB.to arouse public awareness of the importance of environmental protectionC.to take radical measures to control environmental pollutionD.to improve the quality of life by enforcing environmental standards(3).The word “tunnel-visioned“ (Line 2,

37、Para.3) most probably means _.（分数：1.00）A.narrow-mindedB.blind to the factsC.short sightedD.able to see only one aspect(4).Which of the following, according to the author, should play the leading role in the solution of environmental problems?（分数：1.00）A.Legislation and government intervention.B.The i

38、ndustrys understanding and support.C.The efforts of environmental health professionals.D.The cooperation of ecologists, environmental activists and conservationists.(5).Which of the following is true according to the last paragraph?（分数：1.00）A.Efforts should be exerted on pollution prevention instead

39、 of on remedial measures.B.More money should be spent in order to stop pollution.C.Ordinary citizens have no access to technical information on pollution.D.Enviornmental degradation will be stopped by the end of this decade.Text 2Painting your house is like adding something to a huge communal pictur

40、e in which the rest of the painting is done either by nature or by other people. The picture is not static; it changes as we move about, with the time of day, with the seasons, with new planting, new buildings and with alterations to old ones. Any individual house is just a fragment of this picture,

41、 nevertheless it has the power to make or mark the overall scene. In the past, people used their creative talents in painting their homes, with great imagination and in varied but always subtly blending colors. The last vestiges of this great tradition can still be seen in the towns of the extreme w

42、est of Ireland. It has never been recognized as an art form, partly because of the physical difficulty of hanging a street in a gallery and partly because it is always changing, as paint fades and is renewed. Also it is a communal art which cannot be indentified with any person, except in those many

43、 cases where great artists of the past found inspiration in ordinary street scenes and recorded them in paint.Following the principles of decoration that were so successful in the past, you should first take a long look at the house and its surroundings and consider possible limitations. The first c

44、oncerns the amount of color and intensity in the day light in Britain. Colors that look perfectly in keeping with the sunny, clear skies of the Mediterranean would look too harsh in the grayer light of the north. Since bright light is uncomfortable for the eyes, colors must be strong in order to be

45、seen clearly. Viewed in a dimmer light they appear too bright. It is easy to see this if you look at a brick house while the sun is alternately shining and then going behind a cloud. The brick work colors look much more intense when the sun is hidden.The second limitation is the colors of the surrou

46、ndings: the colors which go best with Cotswold stone and a rolling green countryside will be different from those that look best by the sea or in a red-brick/blue-slate industrial town. In every area there are always colors that at once look in keeping.In many areas there are distinctive traditions

47、in the use of color that may be a useful guide. The eastern countries of England and Scotland, particularly those with a local tradition of rendering of plastering, use colors applied solidly over the wall. Usually only the window frames and doors are picked out in another color, often white or pale grey. Typical wall colors are the pink associated with Suffolk and pate buffs. Much stronger colors such as deep earth red, orange, blue and gr
