Task 1 Directions: After reading the following passage, you will find 5 questions or unfinished statements, numbered 36 through 40. For each question or statement

19、 there are 4 choices marked A, B, C, and D. You should make the correct choice. 36 The West has begun to take more notice of the East. The fifth volume of an enormous work re- assessing the Chinese contribution to science and technology is to be published next year. The first volume, which was publi

20、shed twenty years ago, set the tone for the whole work. In it, evidence was given to show that many inventions which, until then, Western historians had claimed for Europe, were made first in China. The attempt to rewrite the intellectual history of the world was not received without protest by some

21、 famous historians. However, the evidence that has been presented so far in the first four volumes has persuaded many historians who were skeptical at first. Chinas invention of paper, printing, the magnetic compass and gunpowder has never been disputed, but this new history has added advanced bridg

22、e design, mechanical clocks, paddle boats and many other inventions to the list. In the four volumes published so far no attempt has been made to explain why China has not kept up with the West in science and technology in modem times. It is probable that the answer is to be found in the social and

23、economic history of China, where a static(静态的 ) society under a relatively kind ruling of scholars contrasts with the potentially revolutionary and dynamic society of the West at the end of the Middle Ages. In recent years, the Chinese government has been making every effort to catch up with the Wes

24、t again, and there is little doubt that the gap is being reduced year by year. But will China avoid the Wests mistakes? 36 So far, how many volumes of the book have been published? （ A） Five. （ B） Four. （ C） Three. （ D） None. 37 The first volume was published _. （ A） ten years ago （ B） last year （ C

25、） five years ago （ D） twenty years ago 38 In Paragraph 1, the word “skeptical“ means _. （ A） doubtful （ B） worried （ C） sad （ D） angry 39 Which of the following is NOT MENTIONED in the passage? （ A） Gunpowder. （ B） Needles. （ C） Paddle boats. （ D） Bridge design. 40 The best title for this passage is

26、 _. （ A） Chinas Inventions （ B） Comparisons Between the East and the West （ C） China Is Catching Up （ D） Situations in China Task 2 Directions: This task is the same as Task 1. The 5 questions or unfinished statements are numbered 41 through 45. 41 It is a matter of common observation that although

27、incomes keep going up over the years, people never seem to become much better off! Prices are rising continuously. This condition is known as one of inflation; the money supply is becoming inflated so that each unit of it becomes less valuable. People have grown accustomed in recent years to higher

28、and higher rates of inflation. What could be bought ten years age for one dollar now costs well over two dollars. Present indications are that this rate of inflation is tending to rise rather than to fall. If in the real world our money incomes go up at the same rate as prices, one might think that

29、inflation does not matter. But it does. When money is losing value, it lacks one of the qualities of a good moneystability of value. It is no longer acceptable as a store of value; and it becomes an unsuitable standard of deferred(延期的 ) payments. Nobody wants to hold a wasting asset(财富 ), so people

30、try to get rid of money as quickly as possible. Inflation therefore stimulates consumer spending, and prevents people from saving. 41 Inflation is a situation in which _. （ A） we find our money more valuable than before （ B） people can easily find better paying jobs （ C） employment no longer becomes

31、 a problem （ D） money keeps losing its value 42 According to the writer, inflation _. （ A） is quite common at the present time （ B） seldom happens in recent years （ C） will become less frequent （ D） can hardly be avoided 43 According to the passage, if incomes and prices rise together _. （ A） money

32、will hold its value （ B） inflation is still a trouble （ C） inflation will not be a problem （ D） businesses will be prosperous 44 When money loses its value _. （ A） it is no longer stable （ B） people will save more money （ C） goods will also lose their value （ D） incomes will keep rising 45 In a peri
