Choose the best one and mark your answer on the ANSWER SHEET with a single line through the center.11 Within fiftee

7、n years Britain and other nations should be well on with the building of huge industrial complexes for the recycling of waste. The word rubbish could lose its meaning because everything that goes into the dumps would be made into something useful. Even the most dangerous and unpleasant wastes would

8、provide energy if nothing else.The latest project is to take a city of around half a million inhabitants and discover exactly what raw materials go into it and what go out. The aim is to find out how much of these raw materials could be provided if a plant for recycling waste were built just outside

9、 the city. This plant would recycle not only metal such as steel, lead and copper, but also paper and rubber as well.Another new project is being set up to discover the best ways of sorting and separating the rubbish. When this project is complete, the rubbish will be processed like this: first, it

10、will pass through sharp metal bars which will tear open the plastic bags in which rubbish is usually packed; then it will pass through a powerful fan to separate the lightest elements from the heavy solids; after that grounders and rollers break up everything that can be broken. Finally the rubbish

11、will pass under magnets, which will remove the bits of iron and steel; the rubber and plastic will then be sorted out in the final stage.The first full scale giant recycling plants are, perhaps, fifteen years away. Indeed, with the growing cost of transporting rubbish to more distant dumps, some big

12、 cities will-be forced to build their own recycling plants before long.11 The main purpose of the passage is _.（A）to show us a future way of recycling wastes（B） to tell the importance of recycling wastes（C） to warn people the danger of some wastes（D）to introduce a new recycling plant12 How many stag

13、es are there in the recycling process?（A）3.（B） 4.（C） 5.（D）6.13 What is the main mason for big cities to build their own recycling plants?（A）To deal with wastes in a better way.（B） Its a good way to gain profits.（C） Its more economical than to dump wastes in some distant places.（D）Energy can be got a

14、t a lower price.14 The first full-scale huge recycling plants _.（A）have been in existence for 15 years（B） takes 15 years to build（C） cant be built until 15 years later（D）will remain functioning for 15 years15 Which of the following statements is TRUE?（A）The word “rubbish“ will soon disappear from di

15、ctionaries.（B） Dangerous wastes can be recycled into nothing but energy.（C） To recycle paper and rubber will still be impossible even with the new recycling methods.（D）Big cities will soon have their own recycling plants.16 Communication is the sending of information or news from one person to anoth

16、er. If human beings could not communicate with one another, each person would have to learn everything for himself. Although animals as well as men can communicate, so far as we know, they can express only the simple emotions like pain, joy, fear, hunger, anger and love. Some animals have a more adv

17、anced form of language using sounds, and others use a wide range of sounds and face movements, but we still have much to learn about these animal languages.Speech is the most important means of communication between people. But it is not the only one. Nor is it the oldest. We use facial expressions,

18、 gestures and hand movements to express our feelings and to send signals to other people. Animals use this “body language“ a great deal. The sign language used by deaf people is an example of communication without speech,while blind people communicate largely through touch and hearing.16 According t

19、o the passage, what would happen to us without communication?（A）We should learn everything for ourselves.（B） We would become unable to speak.（C） We couldnt live happily.（D）We might have to do everything by ourselves.17 What does the passage say about animals communication?（A）They have their advanced

22、can infer from the passage that the oldest form of communication between people is _.（A）speech（B） touch and hearing（C） sounds（D）body language21 When you are near a lake or a river, you feel cool. Why? The sun makes the earth hot, but it cant make the water very hot. Although the air over the earth b

23、ecomes hot, the air over the water stays cool. The hot air over the earth rises. Then the cool air over the water moves in and takes the place of the hot air. Then you feel the cool air and the wind, which makes you cool.Of course, scientists cant answer all of your questions. If we ask, “Why is the

24、 ocean full of salty“ scientists will say that the salt comes from rocks. When a rock gets very hot or very cold, it cracks. Rain falls into the cracks. The rain then carries the salt into he earth and into the rivers. The rivers carry the salt into the ocean. But then we ask, “What happens to the s

25、alt in the ocean? The ocean doesnt get more slat every year“. Scientists are not sure about the answer to this question.We know a lot about our world. But there are still many answers that we do not have, and we are curious.21 The main idea of this passage is _.（A）people feel cool when they are near

26、 a lake or river（B） scientists can explain everything we want to know（C） scientists can explain many things but not everything（D）the salt in the ocean comes from rocks22 You feel cool when you are near a lake or river because _.（A）the water is cold（B） the earth is hot（C） the water is colder than the

29、l widely used in the construction of buildings and in making such diverse things as cars, airplanes, and food containers. In 1979 Americans used over five million tons of new aluminum, and one and a half million tons of recycled aluminum. Some ninety percent of the bauxite (矾土) ore from which new al

30、uminum is normally derived had to be imported to meet the demand. Poorer ores are abundant in the United States, however, researchers at Purdue University may recently have found a way to obtain aluminum magnetically from these.Although aluminum is not attracted by ordinary magnets, under special co

31、nditions it becomes temporarily “paramagnetic“, or very weakly responsive to a magnetic field. This is achieved by immersing ore particles in water to which certain salts have been added and then filtering the ore through steel wool in the presence of a strong magnetic field. It is hoped that this t

32、echnique will reduce the amount of high-grade aluminum the United States must import.26 The passage focuses on_.（A）construction and manufacturing industry in the United States（B） new technique of obtaining aluminum from poor ores（C） consumption and production of aluminum in the United States（D）the a

33、nnual import of high-grade aluminum into the United States27 It is believed that a new technique to_will probably be found.（A）recycle old aluminum products（B） discover more bauxite ores（C） make aluminum by putting ore particles under water（D）take out aluminum magnetically from poorer ores28 In the s

34、econd paragraph the word “paramagnetic“ means_.（A）slightly magnetic（B） a weak magnetic field（C） a strong magnetic substance（D）the under-water magnetic power29 By immersing ore particles in water, _.（A）we can get ore particles of equal size（B） we can purify aluminum particles（C） we can filter out alu

35、minum（D）we can improve the working conditions around30 We understand from the passage that the United States_.（A）is rich in low-grade aluminum-bearing ores（B） is short of aluminum-making techniques（C） has to import ninety percent of its annual need of aluminum（D）has to produce fifty percent of the w

36、orlds supply to meet its annual aluminum demand三、Part III ClozeDirections: There are ten blanks in the following passage. For each numbered blank, there are four choices marked A, B, C and D.
