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 the sea is very big. Look a

29、t 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 were put into the sea at th

30、e 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 look pretty all the time. 56

33、ies has gone through two distinct stages. Early industrialization began the process of transferring some production processes (e. g. cloth making, sewing and caning foods)from the home to the marketplace. Although the home economy could still produce these goods, the processed were laborious(费力的 ) a

34、nd 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 and electrical appliances, the a

35、utomobile, 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 would have to obtained in the mar

36、ketplace. 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 carriage illegal and then impractical,

37、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 them in the market. Growth brough

38、t 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 services, the family had to enter

39、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 applied to the second(and current) s

40、tage. 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 produce such goods in the home （ D） the

41、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 and services never produced by the h

42、ome economy （ C） producing traditional goods at home became socially unaceeptable （ 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 enter the marketplace _. （ A） as w

43、age 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 production （ B） it was illegal for the

44、 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 be helping to alter the climate and

45、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 into outer space. Now an international t

46、eam 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 chiefly because man has cut so many trees i

47、n 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 measures have been taken to reduce the a

48、mount of carbon elements in this way. Production by termites, on the other hand, is not likely to in crease 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 house is made green in order to keep he

49、at （ 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, atmosphere. （ C） Output, production, effect. （ D） Termites, critters, insects. 65 Which of the following sentences is true? （ A） Carbon dioxide in the atmosphere carries
