24、roved （ D） saved 55 It is often difficult for a man to be quite sure what tax he ought to pay to the government because it depends on so many different things: whether the man is married; how many children he has; whether he supports any relations; how much he earns; how much interest he receives; h

25、ow much he has spent on his house during the year, and so on and so forth. All this makes it difficult to decide exactly how much the tax is. There was a certain artist who was always very careful to pay the proper amount. One year, after posting his check as usual, he began to wonder if he had paid

26、 enough, and after a lot of work, with a pencil and paper, he decided that he had not. He believed that he owed the government something. He was just writing another check to send to the tax-collector when the postman dropped a letter into the box at the front door. Opening it, the artist was surpri

27、sed to find inside it a check for five pounds from the tax-collector. The official explained that too much had been paid, and that therefore the difference was now returned to the taxpayer. 56 It is mentioned in the passage that one has to pay tax according to_. （ A） how much education one has recei

30、ing. 59 Millions of hamburgers are eaten by people in every corner of the world every day. Together with hot dogs and Coca-Cola, hamburgers have been the most important American contribution(贡献 )to international eating habits. The name “hamburger“ has nothing to do with ham(火腿 ). It is believed that

31、 the hamburger was first brought to the United States by Germans from the city of Hamburg some time in the 1850s. From then on the hamburger became a kind of popular American fast food. Now young people in Asia, Europe and South America have learned to eat while on the move; a hamburger in one hand

32、and a soft drink in the other. There have been cries to anger from Italy and Spain about the shortening of the usual lunch break. Instead, young people have discovered a lunch for which they don t have to stop at all. However, there are clouds over the hamburger s world. People who concern about hea

33、lth dislike the high animal fat in the hamburger. They think the time saved seems a high price to pay for poor health. The packages in which hamburgers are usually served are causing serious pollution problems in many large cities. Big hamburger companies are destroying large areas of South American

34、 rainforest to produce the cheap meat they need. So, will the hamburger celebrate its next century? 60 In which way do hamburgers change people s eating habits? （ A） People can have their meals at any time of the day. （ B） They can be served in any restaurant. （ C） People can have them with soft dri

35、nks. （ D） Meal time can be greatly reduced. 61 The hamburger, as a kind of popular American fast food,_. （ A） has a history of over one hundred years （ B） was brought to Europe in the 1850 s （ C） is usually eaten with the hot dog （ D） is better served in Hamburg 62 Which of the following is TRUE acc

36、ording to the passage? （ A） Young people in Europe dont stop to buy hamburgers. （ B） It is suggested that hamburgers be eaten with both hands. （ C） Some people in Europe don t like to reduce their lunch break. （ D） Young people in many countries are learning how to eat in their cars. 63 The writer d

37、oesn t believe that_. （ A） packages for hamburgers are polluting many big cities （ B） hamburgers will remain popular for the following 100 years （ C） the meat in hamburgers can cause health problems （ D） cattle raising leads to the destroying of rainforest 63 It s not much , but it s home. Francis C

38、han, an engineer, lives in Hampstead, north London, in a flat thats just 4ft wide by 21ft long. He loves it. Tiny though it is, it has got all the comforts. Peter Baynes, Chans architect (建筑师 ),has achieved a clever piece of design,according to architectural experts. The Chan mini-house was built on

39、 what was once a path down the side of a big Victarian house. Not an inch of space is wasted. When you step in through the front door, youre standing in the shower, on Britain s only self-cleansing doormat (自动清洁门垫 ). A door opens on to an equally tiny toilet with washbasin. Two steps further in come

40、s the kitchen, complete with full-sized cooker and fridge, and washer/ drier. A worktop folds down from the wall. Another step and youre into the dining/ office area. Four people can sit here for dinner, says Chan as he sets the table-top into place. He even has a fold-down drawing-board for when he

41、 s working at home. The bed is hidden under a cover board right at the back. “I dont even have to make the bed,“Chan says. “ I just put the cover down. “ Chans business suits hang neatly on the wall over the bed. Daylight comes in through the skylight. The house feels like a very small boat and Chan

42、 admits he toyed with the idea of naming it the “boat-house“. “It cost around 4,700 to build last year. Now its been valued at 30,000. It proves that good design doesnt need to cost more. It just needs a lot of care.“ says Chan. 64 By saying “Its not much“ (line 1, para. 1),the author means that Cha

43、n s flat_. （ A） is cheap （ B） has cheap furniture （ C） has a simple design （ D） is fairly small 65 Where is Chan s flat? （ A） Next to a big house. （ B） Under an old building. （ C） In a busy London street. （ D） By the side of a country road. 66 Which of the following is the right order of things desc

44、ribed in the text? （ A） Shower, kitchen, toilet, dining table and bed. （ B） Shower, toilet, dining table, kitchen and bed. （ C） Shower, toilet, kitchen, dining table and bed. （ D） Shower, kitchen, toilet, bed and dining table. 67 What is the purpose of this writing? （ A） To sell Chan s flat for more

45、 money. （ B） To tell people how to take care of small flats. （ C） To introduce to readers a cleverly-designed flat. （ D） To call on engineers to design their own homes. 67 I find it annoying and funny when I think about how we use protective or decorative wrappings (装饰性包装 ) in this country. When I c

46、ome home from the supermarket and start to unpack, I am always shocked at the layers of wrappings we cover our food with. There is hardly anything we buy that doesnt come in at least two wrappings, and then several of them are gathered by the shop assistant and put into a small bag. Then several of

47、the small bags are grouped together and put into a big bag. If you have several big bags with small bags in them, they give you a cardboard box to put the packages-in-the-little-bags-in-the-big-bags in. A lot of things we buy wouldnt really need any protective wrapping at all. The skin of an orange

48、protects an orange pretty well for most of its natural life, but we arent satisfied with what nature has given it. We wrap them in plastic or put them in a net bag, and then in a paper bag. The orange inside the skin, inside the plastic which is in the paper bag, must wonder where it is. A box of bi

49、scuits often has waxed paper(蜡纸 ) next to the biscuits, a cardboard box holding the food and then a decorative wrapping around it. A relative of ours bought a new sofa recently because she liked the fine leather (皮革 ) it was covered with. She liked it so much she didnt want it to get dirty, so she bought a cloth cover to pu
