Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished st
14、atements. 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.Passage One Nuclear powers danger to health, safety, and even life itself can be summed up in one
15、 word: radiation. Nuclear radiation has a certain mystery about it, partly because it cannot be detected by human senses. It cant be seen or heard, or touched or tasted, even though it may be all around us. There are other things like that. For example, radio waves are all around us but we cant sens
16、e radioactivity without a radiation detector .But unlike common radio waves, nuclear radiation is not harmless to human beings and other living things. At very high levels, radiation can kill an animal or human being outright by killing masses of cell in vital organs. But even the lowest levels can
17、do serious damage. There is no level of radiation that is completely safe. If the radiation does nor hit anything important, the damage may not be significant. This is the case when only a few cells are hit, and if they arc killed outright. Your body will replace the dead cells with healthy ones. Bu
18、t if the few cells arc only damaged, and if they reproduce themselves, you may be in trouble. They reproduce themselves in a deformed way. They can grow into cancer. Sometimes this does not show up for many years. This is another reason for some of the mystery about nuclear radiation. Serious damage
19、 can be done without the victim being aware at the time that damage has occurred. A person can be irradiated and feel fine, then die of cancer five, ten, or twenty years later as a result. Or a child can be born weak or liable to serious illness as a result of radiation absorbed by its grandparents.
20、 Radiation can hurt us. We must know the truth.36. According to the passage, the danger of nuclear power lies in _.A) nuclear mystery B) radiation detectionC) radiation level D) nuclear radiation37. Radiation can cause serious consequences even at the lowest level _.A) when it kills few cellsB) if i
21、t damages few cellsC) though the damaged cells can repair themselvesD) unless the damaged cells can reproduce themselves38. The word “significant” in paragraph 3 most probably means _.A) remarkable B) meaningfulC) fatal D) harmful39. Radiation can hurt us in the way that it can _.A) kill large numbe
22、rs of cells in main organs so as to cause death immediately.B) damage cells which nay grow into cancer years laterC) affect the healthy growth of our offspringD) All of the above.40. Which of the following can be best inferred from the passage?A) The importance of protection from radiation cannot be
23、 over-emphasized.B) The mystery about radiation remains unsolved.C) Cancer is mainly caused by radiation.D) Radiation can hurt those who are not aware of its danger.Passage TwoIn some ways, the United States has made spectacular progress. Fires no longer destroy 18,000 buildings as they did in the G
24、reat Chicago Fire of 1871, or kill half a town of 2,400 people, as they did the same night in Peshtigo, Wisconsin. Other than the Beverly Hill Supper Club fire in Kentucky, in 1977, it has been four decades since more than 100 Americans died in a fire. But even with such successes, the United States
25、 still has one of the worst fire death rates in the world. Safety experts say the problem is neither money nor technology, but the indifference of a country that just will not take Fires seriously enough. American fire departments are some of the worlds fastest and best equipped. They have to be. Th
26、e United States has twice Japans population, and 40 times as man Fires. It spends far less on preventing fires than on fighting them. American Fire-safety lessons are aimed almost entirely at children, who die in disproportionately large numbers in fires but who, contrary to popular myth, start very
27、 few of them. Experts say the fatal error is an attitude that fires are not really anyones fault. Thai is not so in other countries, where both public education and the law treat Fires as either a personal failing or a crime. Japan has many wood houses; of the estimated 48 fires in world history tha
28、t burned more than 10,000 buildings, Japan has had 27. Penalties for by negligence can be as high as life imprisonment. In the United States, most education dollars are spent in elementary schools. But the lessons are aimed at too limited an audience; just 9 percent of all Fire deaths are caused by
29、children playing with matches. The United States continues to rely more on technology than laws or social pressure. There are smoke detectors in 85 percent of all homes. Some local building codes now require home sprinklers. New heaters and irons shut themselves off if they are tipped.41. The reason
30、 why so many Americans die in fires is that _.A) they took no interest in new technologyB) they did not attach great importance to preventing firesC) they showed indifference to fighting FiresD) they did not spend enough money on fire facilities42. Although the Fire death rate has declined, the Unit
31、ed States _.A) still has the worst fire death rate in the worldB) is still alert to the fire problemC) is still training a large number of safety expertsD) is still confronted with the serious fire problem43. It can be inferred from the passage that _.A) fire safety lessons should be aimed at Americ
32、an adultsB) American children have not received enough education of fire safety lessonC) Japan is better equipped with fire facilities than the Untied StatesD) Americas large population accounts for high fire frequency44. In what aspects should the United States learn from Japan?A) Architecture and
33、building material.B) Education and technology.C) Laws and attitude.D) All of the above45. To narrow the gap between the fire death rate in the United States and that in other countries, the author suggests _.A) developing new technologyB) counting more on laws and social pressureC) placing a fire ex
34、tinguisher in every familyD) reinforcing the safeness of household appliancesPassage ThreeThere are hidden factors which scientists call “feedback mechanisms”. No one knows quite how they will interact with the changing climate. Heres one example: plants and animals adapt to climate change over cent
35、uries. At the current estimate of half a degree centigrade of warming per decade, vegetation(植物) may not keep up. Climatologist James Hansen predicts climate zones will shift toward the poles by 50 to 75kilometres a year-faster than trees can naturally migrate. Species that find themselves in an unf
36、amiliar environment will die. The 1000kilometre-wide strip of forest running through Canada, the USSR and Scandinavia could be cut by half. Millions of dying trees would soon lead to massive forest fires, releasing ions of CO2 and further boosting global warming. There arc dozens of other possible.
37、feedback mechanisms. Higher temperatures will fuel condensation and increase cloudiness, which may actually damp down global warming. Others, like the albedo effect, will do the opposite. The. albedo effect is the amount of solar energy reflected by the earths surface. As northern ice and snow melts
38、 and the darker sea and land pokes( 戳) through, more heat will be absorbed, adding to the global temperature increase.Even if we were to magically stop all greenhouse-gas emissions tomorrow the impact on global climate would continue for decades. Delay will simply make the problem worse. The fact is
39、 that some of us are doing quite well the way things are. In the developed world prosperity has been built on 150 years of cheap fossil fuels. Material progress has been linked to energy consumption. Today 75 per cent of all the worlds energy is consumed by a quarter of the worlds population. The av
40、erage rich world resident adds about 3.2 tons of CO2 yearly to the atmosphere, more than four times the level added by each Third World citizen. The US, with just seven per cent of the global population, is responsible for 22 per cent of global warming.46.”Feedback mechanisms” in paragraph 1 most pr
41、obably refer to _.A) how plants and animals adapt to hidden factorsB) how plants and animals interact with the changing climateC) how climate changesD) how climate zones shift47. James Hansen predicts that the shift of climate zones will be accompanied by _.A) the cutting of many trees.B) desirable
42、environmental changes.C) successful migration of species.D) unsuccessful migration of trees.48. We can learn from the passage that _.A) some feedback mechanisms may slow down global warmingB) the basic facts of global warming are unknownC) developing countries benefit from cheap fossil fuelsD) devel
43、oped countries have decided to reduce their energy consumption49. It can be inferred from the passage that _.A) the developing world has decided to increase its energy consumptionB) a third-world citizen adds less than a ton of CO2 yearly to the atmosphereC) the world climate would soon gain its bal
44、ance if we stopped greenhouse gas emissionsD) future prosperity of the world is dependent on cheap fossil fuels50. Which of the following is the main topic of the passage?A) Material progress and energy consumption.B) Prosperity and cheap fossil fuels.C) Impact of global warming on climate.D) Plants
45、 and animals in the changing climate.Passage FourLearning disabilities are very common. They affect perhaps 10 percent of all children. Four times as many boys as girls have learning disabilities. Since about 1970, new research has helped brain scientists understand these problems better. Scientists
46、 now know there are many different kinds of learning disabilities and that they are caused by many different things. There is no longer any question that all learning disabilities result from differences in the way the brain is organized. You cannot look at a child and tell if he or she has a learni
47、ng disability. There is no outward sign of the disorder. So some researchers began looking at the brain itself to learn what might be wrong. In one study, researchers examined the brain of a learning-disabled person, who had died in an accident. They found two unusual things. One involved cells in the left side of the brain, which control language. These cells normally are white. In the learning disabled person, however, these cells were gray. The researchers also found t
