13、ents. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. You should decide on the best choice and mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the center. 15 We all know that it is possible for ordinary people to make their homes on the equator (道 ), althou

14、gh often they may feel uncomfortably hot there. Millions do it. But as for the North Pole (北极 ) we know that it is not only a dangerously cold place, but that people like you and I would find it quite impossible to live there. At the present time only the scientists and explorers can do so, and they

15、 use special equipment. Men have been travelling across and around the equator on wheels, on their feet or in ships for thousands of years; but only a few men, with great difficulty and in very recent time, have ever crossed the ice to the North Pole. So it may surprise you to learn that, when trave

16、ling by air, it is really safer to fly over the North Pole than over the equator. Of course, it is not true about landings in the polar region, but the weather, if we are flying at a height of 5,000 meters above the Pole is a delight. At 4,000 meters and move above the earth you can always be sure t

17、hat you will not see a cloud in the sky as far as your eyes can reach. In the tropics (热带 ), on the other hand, you are not certain to keep clear of bad weather even at such heights as 18,000 or 20,000 meters. Aeroplanes cant climb as high or as quickly in cold air as in warm. Nor can clouds. In pra

18、ctice, this is an advantage to the aeroplane, which is already at a good height when it reaches the polar region and so does not to climb， while at the same time cold air keeps the clouds down low. 16 “Millions do it. “ in this sentence “do it“ refers to （ A） feeling uncomfortably hot on the equator

19、 （ B） flying over the North Pole （ C） flying over the equator （ D） making homes on the equator 17 The polar region is _ （ A） a good place to land at by aeroplane （ B） a good place to fly over （ C） a good place to fly past （ D） a good place to live in 18 It is a delight to fly at the Pole because the

20、re （ A） planes fly higher than at the equator （ B） the eyes can reach about 4,000 meters （ C） planes are clear of bad weather （ D） planes fly more quickly than at the equator 19 Aeroplanes can climb quickly _ （ A） in warm air （ B） in cold air （ C） when it reaches the polar region （ D） only when the

21、clouds are down low _ 20 Aeroplanes usually do not need to climb quickly or fly high in the polar region because _. （ A） they do not land there （ B） there are no clouds at all （ C） they can cross the ice with special equipment （ D） it is very cold 20 Trees are useful to man in three important ways:

22、they provide him with wood and other products; they give him shade; and they help to prevent droughts and floods. Unfortunately, in many parts of the world, man has not realized that the third of these services is the most important. In his eagerness to make money from trees, he has cut them down in

23、 large numbers, only to find that without them he has lost the best friends he had. And besides, he is usually too careless to plant and look after new trees. So the forests slowly disappear. This does not only mean that man will have fewer trees. The results are even more serious: for where there a

24、re trees, their roots break up soil-allowing the rain to sink in-and also bind the soil, thus preventing it from being washed away easily; but where there are no trees, the rain falls oh hard ground and flows away, causing floods and carrying away the rich top-soil. When all the top-soil is gone, no

25、thing remains but worthless desert. Two thousand years ago a rich and powerful country cut down its trees to build warships, with which to gain itself an empire. It set up the empire but, without its trees, its soil became poor and it grew weak. When the empire fell to pieces; the home country found

26、 itself faced with floods and starvation. 21 What is the most important service of trees to man according to the passage? （ A） They help him make money. （ B） They give him wood and other products. （ C） They help him prevent droughts and floods. （ D） They give him shade. 22 Why do forests in many par

27、ts of the world slowly disappear? （ A） New trees are not looked after properly. （ B） Many trees have been cut down by man. （ C） Man has not paid enough attention to planting trees. （ D） All of the above. 23 Why did the country mentioned in the passage suffer from floods and starvation? （ A） Because

28、an empire was set up. （ B） Because the empire fell to pieces. （ C） Because it lost its trees. （ D） Because too much had been spent on wars. 24 Why does land become desert after all trees are cut down? （ A） Because nothing remains on land except floods. （ B） Because there are no longer trees to keep

29、the rain and protect the top-soil. （ C） Because too much rain sinks in and washes away the top-soil. （ D） Because roots of the trees break up the soil. 25 What does the author tell us in this passage? （ A） How trees help prevent droughts and floods. （ B） The relationship between trees and man. （ C）

30、How an empire fell to pieces in ancient times. （ D） A story of trees. 25 Not all memories are sweet. Some people spend all their lives trying to forget bad experiences. Violence and traffic accidents can leave people with terrible physical and emotional scars. Often they relive these experiences in

31、nightmares (噩梦 ). Now American researchers think they are close to developing a pill, which will help people forget bad memories. The pill is designed to be taken immediately after a frightening experience. They hope it might reduce, or possibly erase(抹去 ), the effect of painful memories. In Novembe

32、r, experts tested a drug on people in the US and France. The drug stops the body releasing chemicals that fix memories in the brain. So far the research has suggested that only the e-motional effects of memories may be reduced, not that the memories are erased. The research has caused a great deal o

33、f argument. Some think it is a bad idea, while others support it. Supporters say it could lead to pills that prevent or treat soldiers troubling memories after war. They say that there are many people who suffer from terrible memories. “ Some memories can ruin people s lives. They come back to you w

34、hen you don t want to have them in a daydream or nightmare. They usually come with very painful emotions. “ said Roger Pitman, a professor of psychiatry at Harvard Medical School. “This could relieve a lot of that suffering. “ But those who are against the research say that it is very dangerous to c

35、hange memories because memories give us our identity(物质 ). They also help us all avoid the mistakes of the past. “All of us can think of bad events in our lives that were horrible at the time but make us who we are. Im not sure we want to wipe those memories out,“ said Rebecca Dresser, a medical eth

36、icist. 26 The passage is mainly about_. （ A） a new medical invention （ B） a new research on memories （ C） a way of erasing painful memories （ D） an argument about the research on the pill 27 The drug tested on people can_. （ A） cause the brain to fix memories （ B） stop people remembering their exper

37、iences （ C） prevent body producing certain chemicals （ D） wipe out the emotional effects of memories 28 We can infer from the passage that_. （ A） people doubt the effects of the pills （ B） the pill will stop peoples bad experiences （ C） taking the pill will do harm to people s health （ D） the pill h

38、as probably been produced in America 29 Which of the following does Rebecca Dresser agree with? （ A） Some memories can ruin people s lives. （ B） People want to get rid of bad memories. （ C） Experiencing bad events makes us different from others. （ D） The pill will reduce people s sufferings from bad

39、 memories. 30 The word “scars“ in Paragraph One is close in meaning to_. （ A） good stories （ B） pains （ C） experiences （ D） memories 30 If there is one thing I m sure about, it is that in a hundred years from now we will still be reading newspapers. It is not mat newspapers are a necessity. Even now

40、 some people get most of their news from television or radio. Many buy a paper only on Saturday or Sunday. But for most people reading newspaper has become a habit passed down from generation to generation. The nature of what is news may change. What basically makes news is what news is what affects

41、 our lives the big political stories, the coverage of the wars, earthquakes and other disasters, will continue much the same. I think there will be more coverage of scientific research, though. Its already happening in areas that may directly affect our lives, like genetic engineering. In the future

42、, I think there will be more coverage of scientific explanations of why we feel as we do as we develop a better understanding of how the brain operates and what our feeling really are. Its quite possible that in the next century newspapers will be transmitted(传送 )electronically from Fleet Street and

43、 printed out in our own home. In fact, Im pretty sure that how it will happen in the future. You will probably be able to choose from a menu, making up your own newspaper by picking out the things you want to readsports and international news, etc. I think people have got it wrong when they talk abo

44、ut competition between the different media. They actually feed off each other. Some people once foresaw that television would kill off newspapers, but that hasn t happened. What is read on the printed page lasts longer than pictures on a screen or sound lost in the air. And as for the Internet, it s

45、 never really pleasant to read something just on a screen. 31 What is the best title for the passage? （ A） The Best Way to Get News （ B） The Changes of Media （ C） Make Your Own Newspaper （ D） The Future of Newspaper 32 In the writers opinion, in the future,_. （ A） more big political affairs, wars an

46、d disasters will make news （ B） newspapers will not be printed in publishing houses any longer （ C） newspapers will cover more scientific research （ D） more and more people will watch TV 33 What will probably be in the newspaper made by yourself? （ A） Sports and international news. （ B） A menu of im

47、portant news. （ C） The most important news. （ D） What you are interested in. 34 From the passage, we can infer_. （ A） newspapers will win the competition among the different media （ B） newspapers will stay with us together with other media （ C） television will take the place of newspaper （ D） the wr

48、iter believe some media will die out 35 The underlined phrase “feed off“ in the last paragraph means_. （ A） depend on （ B） compete with （ C） fight with （ D） kill off 三、 Part II Vocabulary and Structure (30%) Directions: In this part, there are 30 incomplete sentences.

49、r choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the ONE answer that best completes the sentence. Then mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the center. 36 The famous novel is said _ into Chinese. （ A） to have translated （ B） to be translate （ C） to have been translated （ D） to translate 37 Thats the rea
