21、more noise sounds strange ,but thats exactly what motor engineers are doing in Germany and some other countries. Car makers research and development laboratories have already proved that mixing more noise with the help of loudspeakers can reduce the unwanted noise. Physicists have known about the te

22、chnique for a long time. Sound is made up of pressure waves in the air. If two sound waves of the same frequency(频率 ) mix so that the highest point of one wave happens at the same time as the lowest point of the other wave, the result is no sound. Therefore ,by producing a perfect copy of the noise

23、and delaying it by half a wave cycle(周期 ), we can kill the unwanted noise. Using this technique many carmakers are racing to develop noise-killing systems(系统 )both inside and outside the cars. Another good thing about the use of noise-killing systems is that it saves the need for a silencer; this no

24、t only reduces the weight of a car, but also makes the motor burn less fuel and work better. Some engineers believe that the noise-killing system will be used in most cars within a few years. But the carmakers havent decided if they will carry it into production because it would add several hundred

25、dollars to the cost of their cars. 51 Which of the following gives a general idea of how the noise-killing system works? （ A） By producing pressure waves going in the opposite direction. （ B） By mixing high frequency sound waves with low frequency sound waves. （ C） By mixing new sound waves with the

26、 noise and sending them out together. （ D） By making copies of the unwanted sound waves and letting them out a little later. 52 Besides its main use the noise-killing system can_. （ A） make a car lighter （ B） make a car quieter （ C） reduce the cost of a silencer （ D） improve the performance of a sil

27、encer 53 The noise-killing system is not yet popular mainly because _. （ A） it is still being tried out （ B） drivers still have their doubts （ C） it increases the cost of car production （ D） carmakers are not sure if it is necessary 54 “How far is it to the next village?“ the American asks a man sit

28、ting by the side of the road. In some countries, because the man realizes that the traveler is tired and eager to get to his destination (目的地 ), he will politely say “Just down the road. “He thinks this is more encouraging, gender, and therefore the wanted answer. So the American drives through the

29、night, getting more and more angry, feeling “tricked“. He thinks the man deliberately(故意地 ) cheated him, for obviously he must have known the distance quite well. Had conditions been reversed (颠倒过来 ), the American would have felt he was“ cheating“ the driver if he had said the next town was close wh

30、en he knew it was really 15 miles further on. Though, he, too, would be sympathetic ( 同情的 ) to the weary driver, he would say“ You have a good way to go yet; it is at least 15 miles. “The driver might be disappointed, but he would know what to expect. Whether to be accurate (准确的 )or polite leads to

31、many misunderstandings between people of different cultures. If you are aware of the situation in advance, it is sometimes easier to recognize the problem. 54 The man at the roadside tells the American it is close to the next village because_. （ A） he is playing a trick on him （ B） the American expe

32、cts the answer （ C） he doesnt know the exact distance at all （ D） he wants to encourage him to go further 55 We learn from this passage that Americans _ （ A） are good at cheating （ B） are polite to anybody （ C） are sympathetic but honest （ D） have no sympathy for others 56 If you ask an American how

33、 far it is from the next village, he will _. （ A） tell you the exact distance if he knows it （ B） tell you it is close although he knows it isnt （ C） say that he doesnt know and encourage you to go on （ D） decide whether you are tired or not, and then give you an answer 57 The short passage advises

34、us to _. （ A） be polite but honest to foreigners （ B） learn customs of different countries （ C） decide whether to be polite according to different cultures （ D） tell more truths to Americans than to people from other countries 58 Mr. Fern was born in a big city. His father owned several companies an

35、d earned a lot of money. He could give his son all the young man wanted. He was busy with his business and never asked him how he got along with his studies. So the boy spent most time in the restaurants or cinemas. Of course he was not good at his lessons and learned nothing at school. He made many

36、 friends but none of them was good and when they knew he came from a rich family, they began to teach him to gamble (赌博 ). Of course he lost much money. Now Mr. Fern was twenty and finished middle school. He could do nothing. But his father didnt mind it until one day he found the young man had sold

37、 one of his companies. He became so angry that he made him leave his house. The young man couldnt gamble any longer. His friends made him pay his debt. He had to ask his mother to help him and the woman often gave him some money. But one evening his father happened to find it. The old man stopped hi

38、s wife from doing so. They began to fight in the room. The young man brought out a knife and killed his father. His mother helped him run away, but soon after that he was caught and sentenced (判刑 )to death. It was a cold and wet day. Suddenly it began to rain heavily when Mr. Fern was being sent to

39、the execution ground (刑场 ). Soon he and the soldiers were wet through. He said angrily, “Bad luck! I shall be shot in such bad weather!“ “Dont complain (抱怨 ), brother,“ said one of the soldiers. “Youre luckier than us all. Well have to go back to the city after that!“ 58 Old Reese never wanted to kn

43、hat he was able to make his living for 15 years by selling false signatures of famous Americans. Spring was born in England in 1813 and arrived in Philadelphia in 1858 to open a bookstore. At first he made some money by selling his small but real collection of early US autographs(亲笔签名 ). Discovering

44、 his ability at copying handwriting, he began imitating (模仿 ) signatures of George Washington and Ben Franklin and writing them on the title pages of old books. To reduce the chance of detection, he sent his forgeries( 伪造品 )to England and Canada for sale. Forgers have a difficult time selling their

45、products. A forger cant go to a respectable buyer but must deal with people who dont have much knowledge in the field. Forgers have many ways to make their works look real. For example, they buy old books to use the aged paper of the title page, and they treat paper and ink with chemicals. After the

46、 Civil War, Britain was still fond of the southern states, so, Spring invented a respectable lady known as Miss Fanny Jackson, the only daughter of General“ Stone Wall“ Jackson. for several years Miss Fannys financial (财政的 )problems forced her to sell a great number of letters belonging to her famou

47、s father. Spring had to work very hard to satisfy the demand.
