14、ough 40. For each question or statement there are 4 choices marked A, B, C, and D. You should make the correct choice. 29 Insurance is the sharing of risks. Nearly everyone is exposed to risk of some sort. The house owner, for example, knows that his property can be damaged by fire; the ship- owner

15、knows that his vessel may be lost at sea; the breadwinner knows that he may die at an early age and leave his family poorer. On the other hand, not every house is damaged by fire, not every vessel lost at sea. If these persons each put a small sum into a pool(集体储备金 ), there will be enough to meet th

16、e needs of the few who do suffer loss. In other words, the losses of the few are met from the contributions of the many. This is the basis of insurance. Those who administer the pool of contributions are insurers. The legal basis of all insurance is the policy. This is a printed form of contract on

17、stout paper of the best quality. It states that in return for the regular payment by the insured of a named sum of money, called the premium which is usually paid every year, the insurer will pay a sum of money or compensation for loss, if the risk or event insured against actually happens. The prem

18、ium for an insurance naturally depends upon how likely the risk is to happen, as suggested by past experience. If companies fix their premiums too high, there will be more competition in their branch of insurance and they may lose business. On the other hand if they make the premium too low, they wi

19、ll lose money and may even have to drop out of business. So the ordinary forces of supply and demand keep premiums at a level satisfactory to both the insurer and the insured. 29 According to the passage, insurance is possible because _. （ A） only a small proportion of the insured suffer loss （ B） o

20、nly insured people suffer loss （ C） nearly everyone suffers loss （ D） everyone suffers loss 30 By “the pool of contributions“ the writer means _. （ A） the cost of administering insurance （ B） the a mount of each premium （ C） money paid by the insurer （ D） money paid by the insured 31 A policy is _.

21、（ A） a legal agreement （ B） a check to be cashed at the bank （ C） money paid by the insured （ D） money paid by the insurer 32 Insurance premiums do not become too high because _. （ A） not many people suffer loss （ B） they are fixed according to how likely the risk of loss is to happen （ C） not many

22、people insure themselves （ D） insurance companies compete with each other 33 According to the passage, insurance is _. （ A） not worth buying （ B） useless （ C） worth buying （ D） cheap but not necessary Task 2 Directions: This task is the same as Task 1. The 5 questions or unfinished statements are nu

23、mbered 41 through 45. 34 Since sick building syndrome (综合病症 ) (SBS) shares symptoms with many prevalent maladies (疾病 ), from the common cold to allergies and asthma, it can be easily overlooked. The condition is typically recognized only after a group of people occupying the same building come down

24、with the classic symptoms, especially if those symptoms wane during the evening and on weekends. Given a poorly ventilated (使通风 ), airtight (不漏气的，密封的 )building, SBS is believed to be caused by one of two general categories of pollution. The first, typical of flew or newly renovated buildings, is che

25、mical pollution. That “new smell“ you get when first moving into a new house is actually the odor of chemical vapors being given off by paint, glue (胶 ), carpeting and other construction materials. Formaldehyde (甲醛 ), which is considered a probable human carcinogen (致癌物 ), is one of the many volatil

26、e organic compounds (VOCs)(挥发性有机化合物 )commonly released in the vapors; it can be extremely irritating to the mucous membranes (粘膜 ). The classic case of Chemical SBS occurred, ironically, at EPA headquarters in Washington, D. C. , where large areas of new carpeting were installed during renovations;

27、60 people became sick and 10 were hospitalized. One cure is to crack up the heat and cook VOCs opt before people move in. A more persistent form of SBS is caused by biological contaminants, including bacteria and now, researchers have learned, fungi. Both require moisture, and their breeding grounds

28、 are typically stagnant water, either in a buildings ventilation system or trapped in ceiling tiles or carpeting after a leak. 34 What are the symptoms of SBS? （ A） SBS is actually some kind of prevalent maladies. （ B） SBS has similar symptoms to those of many prevalent maladies. （ C） SBS has a spec

30、orly ventilated, airtight building. （ D） SBS is said to be caused by one of two general categories of pollution. 36 We can learn the meaning of “odor“ (Paragraph 2) is _. （ A） smell （ B） gas （ C） possibility （ D） smoke 37 What is the probable reason that may bring about SBS? （ A） SBS is said to be c

31、aused by one of two general categories of pollution, given a poorly ventilated, airtight building. （ B） The “new smell“ of chemical vapors given off by paint, glue and other construction materials. （ C） Formaldehyde is one of the many VOCs which also cause SBS. （ D） None of the above three. 38 What

32、is the main idea of the passage? （ A） SBS now occurs and wed better pay much attention to it. （ B） SBS shares symptoms with many prevalent maladies. （ C） Biological contaminants can cause a more persistent form of SBS. （ D） The classic case of chemical SBS occurred at EPA headquarters.
