18、 to 44 are based on the following passage: The lead pencil is one of the most used pieces of merchandise in the world. It is the simplest, most convenient and least expensive of all writing instruments. Perhaps the most surprising thing about the lead pencil is that it is not lead at all. And it is

19、not a pencil. The “lead“ is actually graphite from the Greek word “to write.“ The word “pencil“ is from Latin. The first pencils were fine or stiff brushes of hair. American pencil makers turn out their product by the millions. Probably there is no more useful article in the world. As one wise perso

20、n remarked: “Everything begins with a pencil. Whether its a pin or a battleship, it is first rendered with a pencil.“ There is a pencil for every purpose. In fact, the industry now supplies 370 different types and styles in more than 70 different colors and in 18 degrees of hardness. Some write clea

21、rly on slippery surfaces, such as glass and plastic. Surgeons use a special pencil for outlining the operation area on the patients skin, and packing-plants use another type to write identification on sides of beef. There is even a special electric pencil used for tests checked by electronic machine

22、s. There are many novelty pencils. Some have the Ten Commandments, calendars or the multiplication table on them. Some are in the shape of umbrellas, canes, baseball bats and traffic signals. One may be 12 feet long, while others are only 1/2 inch. One recent novelty is a pencil with paper in it. A

23、small roll of paper fits in the center of the pencil and is drawn out through a slit in the side. Its just the thing for those who are always looking for a scrap of paper A popular idea is that a check, will, or other legal paper whiten in pencil is not legal. This is not true. Any legal document wh

24、ich does not specify otherwise can be legally signed in pencil. （分数：4.00）(1).The author says that the “lead“ in a pencil_ （分数：1.00）A.is graphiteB.is really a chemicalC.comes from GreeceD.is hard to find(2).What is meant by the following quotation_“Whether its a pin or a battleship, it is first rende

25、red with a pencil.“ （分数：1.00）A.A pencil is difficult to work with.B.The design of the pencil is rendered important.C.The first designs of pin and battleship are not important.D.The pencil is used by everyone for many purposes.(3).Which of the following types of pencils was not mentioned in the story

26、? （分数：1.00）A.a pencil for surgeonsB.a pencil for writing on slippery surfacesC.a pencil for writing underwaterD.a pencil with paper in it(4).According to the article, a document signed with a pencil _ （分数：1.00）A.will smudge badlyB.will net last so long as one signed in inkC.will not hold up in court

27、D.may be legalQuestions 45 to 48 are based on the following passage: In ancient Greece athletic festivals were very important and had strong religious association. The Olympian athletic festival, held every four years in honor of Zeus, eventually lost its local character, became first a national eve

28、nt, and then, after the rules against foreign competitors had been waived, international. No one knows exactly how far back the Olympic Games go, but some official records date from 776 B.C. The Games took place in August on the plain by Mount Olympus. Many thousands of spectators gathered from all

29、parts of Greece, but no married woman was admitted even as a spectator. Slaves, women and dishonored persons were not allowed to compete. The exact sequence of events is uncertain, but events included boys gymnastics, horse-racing, field events such as discus and javelin throwing, and the very impor

30、tant foot races. There was also boxing and wrestling and special tests of varied ability such as the pentathlon, the winner of which excelled in running, jumping, discus and javelin throwing and wrestling. The evening of the third day was devoted to sacrificial offerings to the heroes of the day, an

31、d the fourth day, that of the full moon, was set aside as a holy day. On the sixth and last day, all the victors were crowned with holy garlands of wild, live from a sacred wood. So great was the honor that the winner of the foot race gave his name to the year of his victory. Although Olympic winner

32、s received no prize money, they were, in fact, richly rewarded by their state authorities. The public honor also made the strict discipline of the ten-month training period worthwhile. In spite of the lengthy training, however runners were known to drop dead from strain at the winning post. How thei

33、r results compared with modem standards, we unfortunately have no means of telling. After an uninterrupted history of almost 1,200 years, the Games were abolished in A.D. 394, the Christian era, because of their pagan origin. It was over 1,500 years before there was another such international athlet

34、ics gathering. The Greek institution was revived in 1896 and the first small meeting took place in Athens. After the 1908 London Olympics, success was re-established and nations sent their best representatives. In times of peace, the Games have taken place ever since at four-yearly intervals. Nowada

35、ys, the Games are held in different countries in turn. The host country provides vast facilities, including a stadium, swimming pools and living accommodation, but competing countries pay their own athletes expenses. Athletic contests are still the main feature, but now many more sports are represen

36、ted women compete, the ancient pentathlon, for example, has been modified into a more comprehensive test, and the marathon races, initiated in 1896, are now a celebrated event. The Olympics start with the arrival in the stadium of a torch, lighted on Mount Olympus by the suns rays. It is carried by

37、a succession of runners to the stadium. The torch symbolizes the continuation of the ancient Greek athletic ideals, and it burns throughout the Games until the closing ceremony. The well-known Olympic flag, however, is a modern conception: the five interlocking rings symbolize the uniting of all fiv

38、e continents participating in the Games. （分数：4.00）(1). The first Olympic Games took place_. （分数：1.00）A.probably before 700 B.C.B.over three thousand years agoC.in the seventh century A.D.D.a thousand years ago(2). Modern athletes results cannot be compared with those of the ancient runners because _

39、. （分数：1.00）A.the Greeks had no means of telling the timeB.details such times were not recorded in the pastC.they are much betterD.the ancient runners fell down dead(3).The continuity of the Olympic Games_. （分数：1.00）A.has never been brokenB.was broken in the year A.D. 1200C.was interrupted for over 1

40、,500 yearsD.was broken in 1896(4).At he beginning of the Games in the host country _ （分数：1.00）A.a torch is ignited at sunriseB.a lighted torch is brought into the stadiumC.relays of runners light their torches in the stadiumD.a torch is ignited by the Greek ambassadorQuestions 49 to 52 are based on

41、the following passage: Radiant energy is also called light energy. Our most important source of radiant energy is, of course, the sun. Without it there would be no life, for plant life depends upon radiant energy-and we depend upon plant life. Other forms of radiant energy familiar to us are radio w

42、aves, infrared rays, ultra-violet rays, X rays, and gamma rays. In simplest terms, mechanical energy is the energy of a moving object. Your heartbeat, the pushing of a lawn mower, a baseball speeding through the air, water falling onto a waterwheel, the prying up of a rock with a crowbar-all are mec

43、hanical energy, which, of course, was another form of energy earlier. Electrical energy usually has to be changed to another form before it actually does what we want it to do. In the toaster, it changes to heat; in a tiny wrist watch or a subway train or a 75,000 horse-power industrial motor, it ch

44、anges to mechanical energy. In an industrial process called electrolysis, it changes to chemical energy. Various fuels such as coal, gas, oil, and food are common examples of chemical energy. These fuels give off heat when they burn. The process is called combustion or oxidation, and the heat itself

45、 is a form of energy. Man uses the energy from some kind of fuel for everything from flying to the moon to thinking about it. A special kind of chemical energy is nuclear energy, sometimes called atomic energy. These names come from the fact that the source of energy is the nucleus, or core, of the

46、atom. Nuclear fuels such as plutonium and uranium give off heat energy when fission (the splitting of atoms in these fuels) occurs. Already we have seen tremendous advances in the use of nuclear energy for peaceful purposes, and many people see nuclear energy as the future answer to almost all of ou

47、r energy needs. （分数：4.00）(1).In a toaster, _ energy becomes heather gy. （分数：1.00）A.electricalB.mechanicalC.heatD.radiant(2).Nuclear energy is a special sort of （分数：1.00）A.uraniumB.chemical energyC.radiant energyD.electricity generated in atomic plants(3).We use the terms combustion and oxidation whe

48、n we talk about _. （分数：1.00）A.the energy of a moving objectB.connecting a generator to a steam turbineC.nuclear fissionD.fuels which give off heat when they burn(4).From the facts given in this article we can tell that _ （分数：1.00）A.often a form of energy is useless to us until it becomes another for

49、mB.steam power is cheaper and better than electrical powerC.in the near future, there will be enough nuclear power to supply all our energy needsD.energy can change to another form, but the new form cannot change hack into the old formQuestions 53 to 56 are based on the following passage: The accuracy of scientific observations and calculations is always at the mercy of the scientists timekeeping methods. For this reason, scientists are interested in devices that give promise of more precise timekeeping. In their search fo
