A Frenchman was once travelling in England. He could not speak English

22、at all. One day he went into a restaurant and sat down at a table. When the waiter came, he opened his mouth, put his fingers in it and took them out again. He wanted to say. “Bring me something to eat. “ The waiter soon brought him a cup of tea. The man moved his head from side to side. The waiter

23、understood him and took the tea away. In a moment he came with a cup of coffee. But the man again refused it. He shook his head whenever the waiter brought him something to drink, for drinks are not good. When the man was going away, another man came in. This man saw the waiter, and he put his hand

24、on his stomach(胃 ). That was enough. In a few minutes there was a large plate of meat and vegetables on the table in front of him. So, you see, we cannot understand the language of signs as well as we can understand the language of words. 51 According to the passage, when people do not understand ea

25、ch others language, they can talk with the help of _ . （ A） a waiter （ B） a teacher （ C） an Englishman （ D） the gesture 52 Frenchman signed to the waiter to _ . （ A） give him some medicine （ B） bring him a cup of coffee （ C） ask him for food （ D） tell him what he said 53 The waiter brought the Frenc

26、hman _ . （ A） a cup of tea, a cup of coffee and a lot of other drinks （ B） a large plate of meat and vegetables （ C） a lot of drinks and a large plate of meat （ D） a lot of food and drinks 54 Another man saw the waiter, and put his hands on his stomach meant he _ . （ A） had a stomach-ache （ B） was h

27、ungry （ C） was very thirsty （ D） was full 55 What do we know about the sea? Most of us have seen it. We know that it looks very pretty when the sun is lighting on it. We also know that it can be less pretty when the weather is terrible. What other things do we know about it? The first thing is that

28、the sea is very big. Look at a map of the world and youll find there is less land than sea. The sea covers 3/4 of the world. The sea is very deep in some places. Some parts of the sea are very shallow. At a place near Japan, the sea is nearly 11 kilometres deep! If the highest mountain in the world

29、were put into the sea at the place, there would be two kilometres of water above it. 55 Which of the following is true according to the passage? （ A） The sea always looks pretty. （ B） The sea always looks terrible. （ C） The sea looks neither pretty nor terrible when it is fine. （ D） The sea doesnt l

30、ook pretty all the time. 56 What will you find if you look at a map of the world? “Well find _ . “ （ A） theres much more water than land （ B） the sea covers three fourths of the land （ C） the land covers one third of the sea （ D） the sea was very pretty. 57 This passage tells us that _ . （ A） the se

31、a is very shallow （ B） the sea is very deep （ C） the sea is neither shallow nor deep （ D） the depths(深度 )of the sea in different places are quite different 58 The word “it“ in the last sentence of this passage means _ . （ A） the water （ B） the mountain （ C） the sea （ D） Japan 59 The relationship bet

32、ween the home and market economies has gone through two distinct stages. Early industrialization began the process of transferring some production processes (e. g. clothmaking, sewing and caning foods) from the home to the marketplace. Although the home economy could still produce these goods, the p

33、rocessed were laborious (费力的 ) and the market economy was usually more efficient. Soon, the more important second stage was evident the marketplace began producing goods and services that had never been produced by the home economy, and the home economy was unable to produce them (e. g. electricity

34、and electrical appliances, the automobile, advanced education, sophisticated medical care). In the second stage, the question of whether the home economy was less efficient in producing these new goods and services was irrelevant; if the family were to enjoy these fruits of industrialization, they w

35、ould have to obtained in the marketplace. The traditional ways of taking care of these needs in the home, such as in nursing the sick, became socially unacceptable (and, in most serious cases ,probably less successful). Just as the appearance of the automobile made the use of the horse drawn carriag

36、e illegal and then impractical, and the appearance of television changed the radio from a source of entertainment to a source of background music, so most of the fruits of economic growth did not increase the options available to the home economy to either produce the goods or services or purchase t

37、hem in the market. Growth brought with it increased variety in consumer goods, but not increased flexibility for the home economy in obtaining these goods and services. Instead, economic growth brought with it increased consumer reliance on the marketplace. In order to consume these new goods and se

38、rvices, the family had to enter the marketplace as wage earners and consumers. The neoclassical(新古曲主义的 ) model that views the family as deciding whether to produce goods and services directly or to purchase them in the marketplace is basically a model of the first stage. It cannot accurately be appl

39、ied to the second (and current) stage. 59 The reason why many production processes were taken over by the marketplace was that _ . （ A） it was a necessary step in the process of industrialization （ B） they depended on electricity available only to the market economy （ C） it was troublesome to produc

40、e such goods in the home （ D） the marketplace was more efficient with respect to these processes 60 It can be seen from the passage that in the second stage _ . （ A） some traditional goods and services were not successful when provided by the home economy （ B） the market economy provided new goods a

41、nd services never produced by the home economy （ C） producing traditional goods at home became socially unacceptable （ D） whether new goods and services were produced by the home economy became irrelevant 61 During the second stage, if the family wanted to consume new goods and services, they had to

42、 enter the marketplace _ . （ A） as wage earners （ B） both as manufacturers and consumers （ C） both as workers and purchasers （ D） as customers 62 Economic growth did not make it more flexible for the home economy to obtain the new goods and services because _ . （ A） the family was not efficient in p

43、roduction （ B） it was illegal for the home economy to produce them （ C） it could not supply them by itself （ D） the market for these goods and services was limited 63 There are approximately three quarters of a ton of termites (白蚁 ) for every person on Earth. It now turns out that these critters may

44、 be helping to alter the climate and affect mans life. For years scientists have been saying that carbon dioxide sent into the atmosphere by the burning of fuels might lead to the rise in temperatures of the whole earth, owing to the greenhouse effect in which the gas prevents the escape of heat int

45、o outer space. Now an international team of researchers has discovered that termites generate more than twice the carbon dioxide that fuel burning does. And this production, which comes from the insects eating and consuming of different kinds of vegetables and wood, has risen greatly. This is chiefl

46、y because man has cut so many trees in order to open more land and thus has provided large quantities of food for the insects in the form of tiny pieces of wood. The output from the burning of fuels is of greater concern, however, because it is continuing to rise steadily and so far no effective mea

47、sures have been taken to reduce the amount of carbon elements in this way. Production by termites, on the other hand, is not likely to increase much more. 63 From the passage we know that“ the greenhouse effect“ is an effect in which _ . （ A） low temperatures are created by using a house （ B） the ho

48、use is made green in order to keep heat （ C） heat is prevented from escaping outside （ D） everything is kept green in a house 64 Which of the following consists of three words that refer exactly to the same thing in the passage? （ A） Climate, temperature, heat. （ B） Carbon dioxide, the gas, atmosphe

49、re. （ C） Output, production, effect. （ D） Termites, critters, insects. 65 Which of the following sentences is true? （ A） Carbon dioxide in the atmosphere carries heat into outer space so as to change the climate. （ B） Carbon dioxide may escape into the greenhouse so that the Earth will be made warmer. （ C） As carbon dioxide keeps heat from escaping into outer space, the Earth may become warmer. （ D） Carbon dioxide may make
