25、 operate, and further slows a struggling economy. In the United States, the government has so far provided almost 150 billion dollars to banks, mainly through buying shares. Yet this may not be enough to save some major banks. By some estimates, banks have at least one trillion dollars in losses tha
26、t they have not yet reported. The new administration of President Barack Obama is considering ways to save banks. One possibility is to expand federal guarantees(担保) against losses on some troubled financial assets(资产). The government has already offered guarantees to Bank of America and Citigroup.
27、But the cost of this kind of insurance could be huge.Another possibility is to create a so-called bad bank. It would take questionable securities held by other banks. The idea would be similar to the Resolution Trust Corporation set up by the government in 1989. It was formed to sell assets from fai
28、led savings and loan banks.But it is difficult to put a price on trouble securities. Taxpayers would lose money if the government pays too much. And if it pays too little, banks could still fail.Some people see nationalization(国有化) as the answer. That is when a government takes ownership of a privat
29、e business, often with the idea of selling it back to investors later. Existing shares become worthless.In the early 1990s, Sweden nationalized some banks and later sold their troubled assets, recovering some costs. But a similar effort in the United States, the worlds biggest economy, could take ye
30、ars. And experts warn that lending and politics do not mix.Coming up with a plan to fix the banks and the financial system is now the job for Tim Geithner. The Senate confirmed his this week to replace Henry Paulson as Treasury Secretary. Tim Geithners last job was head of the New York Federal Reser
31、ve Bank.Supporters said he is the best person to deal with the financial crisis. But one-third of the Senate, mostly Republicans, voted against him.He faced rebuke for his failure to pay 34,000 dollars in taxes when he worked for the International Monetary Fund(IMF). He owed it to “careless mistakes
32、. As Treasury Secretary he is the nations chief tax collector.56. What is the passage mainly about?A. The financial crisis in the United States.B. Possible ways to save US banks.C.

Today, we know that although these are the areas with the worst air pollution, the proble
36、m is actually worldwide. On several occasions over the past decade, a heavy cloud of air pollution has covered the entire eastern half of the United States and led to health warnings even in rural areas away from any major concentration of manufacturing and automobile traffic. In fact, the very clim
37、ate of the entire earth may be affected by air pollution. Some scientists feel that the increasing concentration of carbon dioxide in the air resulting from the burning of fossil fuels (coal and oil) is creating a “greenhouse effect - holding in heat reflected from the earth and raising the worlds a
38、verage temperature. If this view is correct and the worlds temperature is raised only a few degrees, much of the polar ice cap will melt and cities such as New York, Boston, Miami, and New Orleans will be under water.Another view, less widely held, is that increasing particulate (废气排往空中而形成的微粒、颗粒) ma
39、tter in the atmosphere is blocking sunlight and lowering the earths temperature a result that would be equally disastrous. A drop of just a few degrees could create something close to new ice age and would make agriculture difficult or impossible in many of our top farming areas. At present we do no
40、t know for sure that either of these conditions will happen (though one recent government report prepared by experts in the field concluded that the greenhouse effect is very likely). Perhaps, if we are very lucky, the two tendencies will offset each other and the worlds temperature will stay about
41、the same as it is now.60. As pointed out at the beginning of the passage, people used to think that air pollution _.A. caused widespread damage in the countrysideB. affected the entire eastern half of the United StatesC. had damaging effects on healthD. existed merely in urban and industrial areas61
42、. As far as the greenhouse effect is concerned, the author _.A. shares the same view with the scientistsB. is uncertain of its occurrenceC. rejects it as being ungroundedD. thinks that it will destroy the world soon62.

43、 make up forC. set up D. catch up with63. This passage is mainly concerned with _.A. the greenhouse effect B. the burning of fossil fuelsC. the potential effect of air pollution D. the possibility of a new ice ageCIn 1826,a Frenchman named Niepce needed pictures for his business. But he was not a go
44、od artist. So he invented a very simple camera. He put in a window of his house and took a picture of his yard. That was the first photograph. The next important date in the history of photography was 1837. That year, Daguerre, another French, took a picture of his studio. He used a new kind of came
45、ra and a different process. In his pictures, you could see everything very clearly, even the smallest details. This kind of photograph was called a daguerreotype. Soon, other people began to use Daguerres process. Travelers brought back daguerreotypes from all around the world. People photographed f
46、amous buildings, cities and mountains. In about 1840,the process was improved. Then photographers could take pictures of people and moving things. The process was not simple. The photographers had to carry lots of films and processing equipment. But this did not stop the photographers, especially in
