Mark your answers on ANSWER SHEET 1. 33 The advantages and disadvantages of a large population have long been a subject of discussion among economist

20、s. It has been argued that the supply of good land is limited. To food a large population, inferior land must be cultivated and the good land worked intensively. Thus, each person produces less and this means a lower average income than could be obtained with a smaller population. Other economists h

21、ave argued that large population gives more scope for specialization and the development of facilities(便利设施 ) such as ports, roads and railways, which are not likely to be built unless there is a big demand to justify them. One of the difficulties in carrying out a worldwide birth control program li

22、es in the fact that official attitudes to population growth vary from country to country depending on the level of industrial development and the availability of food and raw materials. In the developing country where a vastly expanded population is pressing hard upon the limits of food, space and n

23、atural resources. It will be the first concern of government to place a limit on the birthrate, whatever the consequences may be. In a highly industrialized society the problem may be more complex. A decreasing birthrate may lead to unemployment because it results in a declining market for manufactu

24、red goods. When the pressure of population on housing declines, prices also decline and the building industry is weakened. Faced with considerations such as these, the government of a developed country may well prefer to see a slowly increasing population, rather than un which is stable or in declin

25、e. 34 To food a large population, _. （ A） inferior land must be cultivated （ B） good land must work intensively （ C） each person must produce less （ D） Both A and B 35 A small population may mean _. （ A） higher productivity but a lower average income （ B） lower productivity but a higher average inco

26、me （ C） lower productivity and a lower average income （ D） higher productivity and a higher average income 36 According to the passage, a large population will produce a chance for developing _. （ A） agriculture （ B） transport system （ C） industry （ D） national economy 37 One of the difficulties in

27、carrying out worldwide birth control is that _. （ A） official attitudes to population and birth control vary from country to country （ B） different countries have different customs and practices on birth control （ C） decreasing birth rate may lead to unemployment in some countries （ D） in some count

28、ries people think that they enjoy the right to have as many children as they like 38 The government of the developed countries may prefer to _. （ A） a stable population （ B） a slowly-increasing population （ C） a fast-increasing population （ D） a declining population 38 Space is a dangerous place, no

29、t only because of meteors(流星 )but also because of rays from the sun and other stars. The atmosphere again acts as our protective blanket on earth. Light gets through, and this is essential for plants to make the food which we eat. Heat, too, makes our environment endurable. Various kinds of rays com

30、e through the air from outer space, but enormous quantities of radiation(辐射 ) from the sun are screened off. As soon as men leave the atmosphere they are exposed to this radiation but their spacesuits or the walls of their spacecraft, if they are inside, do prevent a lot of radiation damage. Radiati

31、on is die greatest known danger to explorers in space. The unit of radiation is called“ rem“. Scientists have reason to think that a man can put up with far more radiation than 0. 1 rem without being damaged; the figure of 60 rems has been agreed on. The trouble is that it is extremely difficult to

32、be sure about radiation damage-a person may feel perfectly well, but the cells of his or her sex organs may be damaged, and this will not be discovered until the birth of deformed (畸形的 )children or even grandchildren. Missions of the Apollo flights have had to cross belts of high radiation during th

33、e outward and return journeys. So far, no dangerous amounts of radiation have been reported, but the Apollo mission have been quite short. We simply do not know yet how men are going to get on when they spend weeks and months outside the protection of the atmosphere, working in space laboratory. Rug

34、s might help to decrease the damage done by radiation, but no really effective ones have been found so far. 39 According to the first paragraph, the atmosphere is essential to man in that _. （ A） it protects him against the harmful rays from space （ B） it provides sufficient light for plant growth （

35、 C） it supplies the heat necessary for human survival （ D） it screens off the falling meteors 40 We know from the passage that _. （ A） exposure to even tiny amounts of radiation is fatal （ B） the effect of exposure to radiation is slow in coming （ C） radiation is avoidable in space exploration （ D）

36、astronauts in spacesuit neednt worry about radiation damage 41 The harm radiation has done to the Apollo crew members _. （ A） is insignificant （ B） seems overestimated （ C） is enormous （ D） remains unknown 42 It can be inferred from the passage that _. （ A） the Apollo mission was very successful （ B

37、） protection from space radiation is not a easy job （ C） astronauts will have deformed children or grandchildren （ D） radiation is not a threat to well-protected space explorers 43 The best title for this passage would be _. （ A） The Atmosphere and Our Environment （ B） Research on Radiation （ C） Eff

38、ects of Space Radiation （ D） Importance of Protection against Radiation 43 A great deal of nonsense is written about the character of a nation, chiefly because many observers, influenced by national pride and prejudices, feel irresistibly tempted to generalize about everything. In a nation of many m

39、illions of people, there are bound to be many different kinds: rich and poor, clever and stupid, good and bad, modest and conceited, patient and impatient, honest and dishonest. Moreover, a nation may develop a sort of collective character in its polities and literature which is not recognizable in

40、individual people. Generalizations therefore tend to be unrealistic, and should be made, and accepted, with caution. One word of warning is necessary. The British people who take up appointments in Asia and Africa are not fully typical of their nation. For one thing, they are usually specialists in

41、one field or another. The average British people is not a specialist, and although he can read and write he is not particularly cultured in the intellectual sense. “Highbrow“ is a word very often used by the common people of Britain to describe and condemn any form of intellectual culture. Moreover,

42、 the great technical achievements of Europeans do not mean that a European is basically more intelligent than an African or Asian. The achievements are due to the handing down and sharing of knowledge and to organized training and research rather than m mental superiority; and of course the mere pos

43、session of, say, a motor-car or washing-machine and the ability m operate it, does not require any understanding of how it works. 44 To know the character of a nation, one should _. （ A） observe the behavior of the leaders （ B） read the literature of that nation （ C） never accept any generalizations

44、 （ D） form a sound judgment of everything 45 One reason for the difference between the British people working abroad and the average person at home is that the former _. （ A） are more intellectually cultured （ B） have made many foreign friends （ C） work much harder （ D） hold important positions 46 A

45、ccording to the author, _. （ A） Europeans are more intelligent than Africans and Asians （ B） there is no such things as mental superiority （ C） Europeans should share their knowledge with Africans and Asians （ D） mental superiority is vital to the scientific progress in Europe 47 This passage is wri

46、tten _. （ A） to warn the readers against misunderstanding the British people （ B） to make a brief introduction to different social classes in Britain （ C） to criticize the nonsense written about Britain （ D） to describe the living conditions in Britain 48 What does the anther imply by writing the la

47、st sentence of the passage? （ A） Knowing how to operate a motor-car or washing-machine means a high mental intelligence. （ B） The technical achievement of Europeans are because of their intelligence. （ C） Only knowing how to operate some modem household appliances does not really mean that they are

48、of real intelligence. （ D） Europeans are more intelligent than Africans or Asians because they are of mental superiority.
