26、ertisement becoming increasingly common m newspaper classified columns. It is sometimes placed among “situations vacant“, although it does not offer any one a job and sometimes it appears among “situations wanted “, although it is not placed by someone looking for a job either. What it does is to of

27、fer-help in applying for a job. “Contact us before writing your application“, or “Make use of our long experience in preparing your curriculum vitae, or job history“, is how it is usually expressed. The growth and apparent success of such a specialized service is, of course, a reflection on the curr

28、ent high levels of unemployment. It is also an indication of the growing importance of the curriculum vitae (or job history)with the suggestion that it may now qualify as an art form in its own right. There was a time when job seekers simply wrote letters of application. “Just put down your name, ad

29、dress, age and whether you have passed any exams“, was about the average level of advice offered to young people applying for their first jobs when I left school. The letter was really just for openers, it was explained. Everything else could and should be saved for the interview. And in those days

30、of full employment the technique worked. The letter proved that you could write and were available for work, Your eager face and intelligent replies did the rest. Later, as you moved up the ladder, something slightly more sophisticated was called for. The advice then was to put something in the lett

31、er which would distinguish you from the rest. It might be the aggressive approach. “Your search is over. I am the person you are looking for“, was a widely used trick that occasionally succeeded. Or it might be some special feature specially designed for the job in view. There is no doubt, however,

32、that it is the increasing number of applicants with university education at all points in the process of engaging staff that has led to the greater importance of the curriculum vitae. 43 The new type of advertisement which is appearing in newspaper columns_. （ A） informs job hunters of the opportuni

33、ties available （ B） promises useful advice to those looking for employment （ C） divides available jobs into various types （ D） informs employers that people are available for work 44 Nowadays a demand for this specialised type of service has been created because_. （ A） there is a lack of jobs availa

34、ble for artistic people （ B） there are so many top-level jobs available （ C） there are so many people out of work （ D） the job history is considered to be a work of art_. 45 In the past it was expected that first-job hunters would （ A） write an initial letter giving their life history （ B） pass some

35、 exams before applying for a job （ C） have no qualifications other than being able to read and write （ D） keep any detailed information until they obtained an interview 46 Later as one went on to apply for more important jobs, one was advised to include in the letter_. （ A） something that would attr

36、act attention to ones application （ B） a personal opinion about the organisation one was trying to join （ C） something that would offend the person reading it . （ D） a lie that one could easily get away with telling 47 The job history has become such an important document because （ A） there has been

37、 a decrease in the number of jobs advertised （ B） there has been an increase in the number of jobs advertised （ C） jobs are becoming much more complicated nowadays （ D） the other processes of applying for jobs are more complicated 47 Water problems in the future will become more intense and more com

38、plex. Our increasing population will tremendously increase urban wastes, primarily sewage. On the other hand, increasing demands for water will decrease substantially the amount of water available for diluting wastes. Rapidly expanding industries which involve more and more complex chemical processe

39、s will produce larger volumes of liquid .wastes, and many of these will contain chemicals which are noxious. To feed our rapidly expanding population, agriculture will have to be intensified. This will involve ever-increasing quantities of agricultural chemicals. From this, it is apparent that drast

40、ic steps must be taken immediately to develop corrective measures for the pollution problem. There are two ways by which this pollution problem can be dwindled. The first relates to the treatment of wastes to decrease their pollution hazard. This involves the processing of solid wastes “prior to“ di

41、sposal and the treatment of liquid wastes, or effluents, tn permit the reuse of the water or minimize pollution upon final disposal. A second approach is to develop an economic use for all or a part of the wastes. Farm manure is spread in fields as a nutrient or organic supplement. Effluents from se

42、wage disposal plants are used in some areas both for irrigation and for the nutrients contained. Effluents from other processing plants may also be used as a supplemental source of water. Many industries, such as meat and poultry processing plants, are currently converting former waste products into

43、 marketable by products. Other industries are exploring potential economic uses for their waste products. 48 The purpose of this passage is _. （ A） to acquaint the reader with water pollution problems （ B） to alert the reader to the dwindling water supply （ C） to explain industrial uses of water （ D

44、） to demonstrate various measures to solve the pollution problem 49 Which of the following points is NOT included in the passage? （ A） Diluting wastes needs a certain amount of water. （ B） Demands for water will go up along with the expanding population. （ C） Intensive cultivation of land requires m

45、ore and more chemicals. （ D） Industrial development includes the simplification of complex chemical processes. 50 The reader can conclude that_. （ A） countries of the world will work together on pollution problems （ B） some industries are now making economic use of liquid wastes （ C） by-products fro

46、m wastes lead to a more prosperous marketplace （ D） science is making great progress in increasing water supplies 51 The author gives substance to the passage through the use of_. （ A） interviews with authorities in the field of water controls （ B） definitions which clarify important terms （ C） opin

47、ions and personal observations （ D） strong arguments and persuasions 52 The words “prior to“ (Para. 2)probably mean _. （ A） during （ B） before （ C） after （ D） beyond 52 Standing on the rim of the Grand Canyon(大峡谷 ), gazing across this giant would in the Earths surface, a visitor might assume that th

48、e canyon had been caused by some ancient convulsing (震动 ). In fact, the events that produced the canyon, far from being sudden and catastrophic, simply add up to the slow and orderly process of erosion. Many millions of years ago, the Colorado Plateau in the Grand Canyon area contained 1000 more fee

49、t of rock than it does today and was relatively level. The additional material consisted of some 14 layered formations of rock. In the Grand Canyon region these layers were largely worn away over the course of millions of years. Approximately 65 million years ago the plateaus flat surface in the Grand Canyon area bulged upward from internal pressure, geologists refer to this bulging actions upwading(弯曲上升 ); it was followe
