It may be walking, cycling or swimming, in winter, or skating or skiing. It may be a game of some ki

19、nd - football, hockey, golf or tennis. It may be mountaineering. These who have a passion【 C1】 _climbing high and difficult mountains are often【 C2】 _with astonishment. Why are men and women【 C3】 _to suffer cold and hardship, and to【 C4】 _on high mountains? This astonishment is caused, probably, by

20、the difference between mountaineering and other forms of activity【 C5】_which men give their leisure. Mountaineering is a sport and not a game. There are no man-made rules, as there are for【 C6】 _games as golf and football. There are, of course, rules of different kinds which it would be dangerous to

Answer the que

29、stions on each text by choosing A, B, C or D. Mark your answers on ANSWER SHEET 1. 45 Usually when we hear the word “artist“ we think of a person who paints pictures, but the word has a much wider meaning than that, for anyone who adds beauty to a thing has shown that he is an artist. In the publish

30、ing world, there are many artists besides the illustrators, as you can find if you trace the steps introducing a book. After the author (who is an artist in the choice of ideas and words) has sold a manuscript to the publisher, an editor goes over it. The work of editing involves artistic skill too,

31、 for the editor may know how to improve the authors work by cutting and revising the manuscript. Then the editor looks over the manuscript and decides how it may be best illustrated. The editor and a designer discuss how all the parts of the book the illustrations, words, paper, and binding-shall be

32、 put together so that the book best communicate the subject and the spirit which was intended by the author. Illustrations are drawn which will not only emphasize without words things said in the story, but which will add information or ideas that cannot be put into words. When the illustrations and

33、 text are completely prepared they are sent to the printer who carefully, and often artistically, sets the type and prints the book. Once the material has been printed, it is sent to the binder who makes the book into a unit for selling and reading. The binder, too, is an artist, for he makes use of

34、 special techniques to make the outside of the book attractive, as well as appropriate to the contents. Meanwhile, a sales staff is at work preparing advertisements to help sell the book. 46 How many steps in producing A book are mentioned in the passage? （ A） 4. （ B） 6. （ C） 5 （ D） 7 47 Which of th

35、e following is NOT involved in the work of editing? （ A） Deciding which parts are to be illustrated. （ B） Accepting or rejecting a manuscript. （ C） Considering the beauty of a book as a whole. （ D） Rewriting or rearranging long paragraphs. 48 Illutrations must _. （ A） make all text fit to print and

36、read （ B） add the ideas overlooked by the author （ C） closely touch what is said in the story （ D） have much to do with what is not emphasized 49 Designing the advertisements for a book is started when _. （ A） the book is being bound （ B） the book is made into a unit （ C） the illustrations and text

37、are prepared （ D） all the steps are finished 50 The best title for this passage would be_. （ A） The Beauty of a Book （ B） Art and the Printed World （ C） Who Deserves the Name of Artist （ D） The Steps in Producing A Book 50 In November 1965, New York was blacked out by an electricity failure. The aut

38、horities promised that it would not happen again. Pessimists were certain that it would occur again within five years at the latest. In July 1977, there was a repeat performance which produced varying degrees of chaos throughout the city of eight million people. In 1965, the failure occurred in the

39、cool autumn and at a time of comparative prosperity. In 1997, the disaster was much more serious because it came when unemployment was high and the city was suffering from one of its worst heat waves. In 1965, there was little crime or looting during the darkness, and fewer than a hundred people wer

40、e arrested, in 1977, hundreds of stores were broken into and looted. Looters smashed shop windows and helped themselves to jewelry, clothes or television sets. Nearly 4, 000 people were arrested but far more disappeared into the darkness of the night. The number of policemen available was quite inad

41、equate and they wisely refrained from using their guns against mobs which far outnumbered them and included armed men. Hospitals had to treat hundreds of people cut by glass from shop windows. Banks and most businesses remained closed the next day. The black-out started at 9:30 p. m. , when lightnin

42、g hit and knocked out vital cables. Many stores were thus caught by surprise. The vast majority of New Yorkers, however, were not involved in looting. They helped strangers, distributed candles and batteries, and tried to survive in a nightmare world without traffic lights, refrigerators, elevators,

43、 water and electrical power. For twenty-four hours, New York realized how helpless it was without electricity. 51 Look at the first paragraph, who were fight? The authorities or the pessimists? （ A） The authorities. （ B） The pessimists. （ C） Both. （ D） Neither. 52 In what way was the blackout of 197

44、7 not really a repeat performance? （ A） There was much more disorder. （ B） This time the electricity supply failed. （ C） It was quite unexpected. （ D） It did not occur within five years of 1965. 53 As far as maintaining the peace was concerned, conditions in 1977 were comparatively_. （ A） more favou

45、rable （ B） less favourable （ C） unchanged （ D） improved 54 What caused the blackout in July 1977? （ A） Excessive heat probably made people switch on too many electrical appliances. （ B） Because of unemployment, some machines were not in proper working order. （ C） During a storm, lightning damaged su

46、pply cables. （ D） The passage does not mention the cause. 55 Why did many looters manage to escape? （ A） The police could not see them in the dark. （ B） Many of the looters were armed with guns. （ C） There were not enough policemen to catch them all. （ D） They were hidden inside big buildings. 55 “C

47、ulture consists of all shared products of human society“ (Robertson, 1981 ). This means not only such material things as cities, organizations and schools, but also non-material things such as ideas, customs, family patterns, languages. Putting it simply, culture refers to the entire way of life of

48、a society, “the ways of a people“. Language is a part of culture and plays a very important role in it. Some social scientists consider it the keystone of culture. Without language, the maintaining of culture would not be possible. On the other hand, language is influenced and shaped by culture, it

49、reflects culture. In the broadest sense, language is the symbolic representation of a people, and it comprises their historical and cultural backgrounds, as well as their approach to life and their ways of living and thinking. We should not go further into the relationship between language and culture. What needs to be stressed here is that the two interact, and that understanding of one requires understanding of the other. Social scientists tell us th
