Water, warmth, and food are all needed for bacteria to become s

15、trong and healthy. Some kinds of bacteria need air, but other kinds grow only when air is absent. Extremes of temperature, either hot or cold, can kill bacteria.Before electric ice-boxes were invented, freezing and cooling were limited by the cold climate. In warmer regions, food was cooled by putti

16、ng it in the shade, in cold water from the well, or in pits(坑)in the ground.Cooking will usually kill bacteria if the temperature is high enough and the high temperature lasts long enough. Certain methods of cooking remove water, and this aids in preserving food. Drying is the oldest and most common

17、 method of preserving food. Food can be dried by the sun, by heat or by combination of the two.Salt was used by many hunting people. When people began to eat vegetables, salt became a needed part of their life. Salt helps to preserve food because it slows or stops bacteria to grow. Other chemicals b

18、esides salt are used in preserving food. Some people oppose the use of chemicals in food. They say that these chemicals may harm people if the chemicals can harm bacteria.36 How can we preserve food according to the first paragraph?（A）By controlling the temperature.（B） By putting food in a refrigera

19、tor.（C） By controlling the growth of bacteria.（D）By putting food in a place without air.37 Cooking is an effective way in preserving food because _.（A）all cooking methods remove water（B） cooking can make the food become dry（C） the light in cooking can kill bacteria（D）cooking can kill bacteria38 The

22、od.（D）Ways of cooking food.40 Many things about language are a mystery, and many will always remain so. But some things we do know.First, we know that all men in the world have a language of some sort. There is no race of men anywhere on earth so backward that it has no language. And, in historical

23、times, there has never been a race of men without a language.Second, there is no such thing as a primitive language. There are many peoples whose cultures are undeveloped, who are, as we say, uncivilized, but the languages they speak are not primitive. In all known languages we can see complexities

24、that must have been tens of thousands of years in developing. This has not always been well understood; indeed, the direct contrary has often been stated. Popular ideas of the language of the American Indians will illustrate. Many people have supposed that the Indians communicated in a very primitiv

25、e way. Study has proved this to be nonsense. There are, or were, hundreds of American Indian languages, and all of them turn out to be very complicated and very old. They are certainly different from the languages that most of us are familiar with, but they are no more primitive than English and Gre

26、ek.A third thing we know about language is that all languages are perfectly adequate. That is, each one is a perfect means of expressing the culture of the people who speak the language.Finally, we know that language changes. It is natural and normal for language to change; the only languages which

27、do not change are the dead ones. This is easy to understand if we look backward in time. Change goes on in all aspects of language. Grammatical features change as do speech sounds, and changes in vocabulary are sometimes very extensive and may occur very rapidly. Vocabulary is the least stable part

28、of any language.41 What can be inferred from the second paragraph?（A）Some backward race of men doesn t have a language of their own.（B） Some race of men in history didn t possess a language of their own.（C） Any human race, whether backward or not, has a language.（D）Some race of men on earth can comm

29、unicate without language.42 What kind of language can peoples of undeveloped cultures have?（A）Complicated.（B） Uncivilized.（C） Primitive.（D）Well-known.43 People used to think Indians communicated_.（A）with complicated language（B） in a primitive way（C） with hand gestures（D）through body movements44 What

30、 does the word “adequate“(Line 1, Para. 4)most probably mean?（A）Primitive.（B） Unique.（C） Sufficient.（D）Proper.45 According to the author, language changes are most likely to occur in_.（A）grammar（B） pronunciation（C） vocabulary（D）intonation45 The English have the reputation of being very different fro

31、m all other nationalities. It is claimed that living on an island separated from the rest of Europe has much to do with it. Whatever the reasons, it may be fairly stated that the Englishman has developed some attitudes and habits distinguishing him from other nationalities.Broadly speaking, the Engl

32、ishman is a quiet, shy, and reserved person among people he knows well. Before strangers he often seems inhibited, even embarrassed. You have only to witness a railway compartment any morning or evening to see the truth. Serious-looking businessmen and women sit reading their newspapers or dozing(打盹

33、)in a corner, and no one speaks. An English wit once suggested to overseas visitors, “ On entering a railway compartment shake hands with all the passengers. “ Needless to say, he was not being serious. There is an unwritten but clearly understood code of behavior, which, if broken, makes the person

34、 immediately the object of suspicion.It is well known that the English seldom show openly extremes of enthusiasm, emotion etc. Of course, Englishman feels no less than any other nationality. Imagine a man commenting on the great beauty of a young girl. A man of more emotional temperament might descr

35、ibe her as “ a marvelous jewel“, while the Englishman will flatly state “Urn, she s all right.“ An Englishman may recommend a highly successful and enjoyable film to friends by commenting, “It s not bad. “ The overseas visitors must not be disappointed by this apparent lack of interest. They must re

36、alize that “all right“ , “not bad“ are very often used with the sense of “first class“ , “excellent“. This special use of language is particularly common in English.46 One explanation for the different character of English people is that_.（A）they are geographically isolated from the European contine

37、nt（B） they have nothing to do with the other Europeans（C） they like to keep quiet among their acquaintances（D）they tend to be reserved by nature47 The word “inhibited“(Line 2, Para. 2)in this passage probably means_.（A）unable to have good manners（B） unable to express and relax freely（C） able to act

38、properly（D）able to talk freely48 According to the passage, on entering a railway compartment, an overseas visitor is expected to_.（A）inquire about the code of behavior in the train（B） shake hands with all the passengers（C） shake hands with the person he knows（D）behave like an Englishman49 The Englis

39、h way of commenting on something or somebody suggests that_.（A）the English are modest in most circumstances（B） the English feel no less than any other nationality（C） the English tend to display less emotion than they feel（D）the English dont take a strong interest in making comment50 What does the pa

40、ssage mainly discuss?（A）The differences between the English and the other Europeans.（B） The different character of the Englishman and its reason.（C） The reasons for English people s shyness.（D）The code of behavior of the nationalities in Europe.50 When you were looking for a reliable, honest auto me

41、chanic, how did you find him? Before you went into that restaurant you recently tried, how did you know that it served great food? If you re like most everyone on the planet, you want to lower your risk of a big ugly surprise so you asked people you trust to refer you to a business they trust.We all

42、 rely on our friends and associates to recommend goingor not goingto a particular business. Marketers call this friend-to-friend endorsement(认可)of a business “ word-of-mouth advertising“. It is the most powerful form of advertising. It is also the most difficult to create.When you do a great job for

43、 your customers or a rotten job, people are going to talk about your business. Unfortunately, because we humans seem to feel negative emotions more intensely than positive ones, we re more inclined to tell more of our friends about bad experiences with a business than positive ones. Understand this:

44、 Customers believe their own experience. You cant make them believe that your company is wonderful when they felt they were treated badly.So, to get positive word-of-mouth going for your business, especially from your demanding customers in this service-based economy, you ve got to do a really outst

45、anding job. For everyone, consistently.And when you do, you build a great reputation. That takes time. But it forges a bond with your customers and prospective customers in a way that no slick advertising campaign, and no promotional coupon(优惠券)ever could.The good news is that because there are so m

46、any different businesses chasing after your customers money, people want to know who they can trust. So people are going to be talking about you. Create a free sales force for your businessan army of delighted customer who tell everyone they know how good your company is to do business with. That s

47、a great antidote(解毒剂)to defection.51 What is the main topic of this passage?（A）A person should rely on his friends for business.（B） A good name will bring you money.（C） A company can make customers believe that it s wonderful.（D）A company should advertise everything to survive.52 According to the au

48、thor, whether well go to a place or not depends on_.（A）media advertising（B） department store display window（C） word-of-mouth advertising（D）the business fame53 Why are we more likely to tell more of our friends about unsatisfied experiences with a business than satisfied ones?（A）Because we aren t inc

49、lined to have a negative feeling.（B） Because we often feel negative emotions more intensely.（C） Because we seem to feel more intensely.（D）Because we often hear people express their negative emotions.54 According to the author, when you do a really outstanding job in service, you will_.（A）build a bad reputation（B） break the bond with y
