20、Reading Comprehension (Each item: 1) Directions: Read the following passage(s) carefully and do the multiple-choice questions.Questions 16 to 20 are based on the same passage or dialog.Once we thought of pollution as meaning simply smog - the choking, stinging, dirty air that hovers over cities. But
21、 air pollution, while it is still the most dangerous, is only one type of contamination among several which attack the most basic life functions. Through the controlled use of insecticides, man has polluted the land, killing the wildlife. By dumping sewage and chemicals into rivers and lakes, we hav
22、e contaminated our drinking water. We are polluting the oceans, too, killing the fish and thereby depriving ourselves of an invaluable food supply. Part of the problem is our exploding population. More and more people produce more wastes. But this problem is intensified by our “throw-away” technolog
23、y. Each year Americans dispose of 7 million autos, 20 million tons of waste paper, 25 millions pounds of toothpaste tubes and 48 million cans. We throw away bum wrappers, newspapers, and paper plates. It is no longer fashionable to reuse anything. Today almost everything is disposable. Instead of re
24、pairing a toaster or a radio, it is easier and cheaper to buy a new one and discard the old, even though 95 percent of its parts may still be functioning. Baby diapers, which used to be made of reusable cloth, are now paper throw-aways. Soon we will sear clothing made of paper: “Wear it once and thr
25、ow it away. “ will be the slogan of the fashion conscious. Where is this all to end? Are we turning the world into a gigantic dump, or is there hope that we can solve the pollution problem? Fortunately, solutions are insight. A few of them are positively ingenious. 16.Which one of the following prob

36、5. _what criticisms she would have. Part 3 Reading Comprehension (Each item: 1) Directions: Read the following passage(s) carefully and do the multiple-choice questions.Questions 16 to 20 are based on the same passage or dialog.Being a man has always been dangerous. There are about 105 males born fo
37、r every 100 females, but this ratio drops to near balance at the age of maturity, and among 70-year old people there are twice as many women as men. But the great universal (普遍性) of male mortality is being changed. Now, boy babies survive almost as well as girls do. This means that for the first tim
38、e there will be an excess of boys in those crucial years when they are searching for a mate. More important, another chance for natural selection has been removed. Fifty years ago, the chance of a baby surviving depended on its weight. A kilogram too light or too heavy meant almost certain death. To
39、day it makes almost no difference. Since much of the variation is due to genes, one more force of evolution has gone. There is another way to commit evolutionary suicide: stay alive, but have fewer children. Except in some religious communities, very few women have 15 children. Nowadays the number o
40、f births, like the age of death, has become average. Most of us have roughly the same number of children. Again, differences between people and the opportunity for natural selection to take advantage of it have disappeared. India shows what is happening. The country offers wealth for a few in the gr
41、eat cities and poverty for the remaining tribal peoples. The grand mediocrity of todayeveryone being the same in survival and number of childrenmeans that natural selection has lost 80% of its power in middle-class compared to the tribe. For us, this means that evolution is over; the biological Utop
42、ia has arrived. Strangely, it has involved little physical change. No other species fills so many places in nature. But in the past 100 000 years even the past 100 yearsour lives have been transformed but our bodies have not. We did not evolve, because machines and society did it for us. Darwin had
43、a phrase to describe those ignorant of evolution; they “look at an organic being as a savage looks at a ship, as at something wholly beyond his comprehension.” No doubt we will remember a 20th century way of life beyond comprehension for its ugliness. But however amazed our descendants may be at how
44、 far from Utopia we were, they will look just like us.16.According to the author, what was the danger a man had to face?A. Lack of matesB. Fierce competition.C. Lower survival.D. Gene.17.The sentence There is another way to commit evolutionary suicide perhaps means A. there is another way to stop th
45、e society from making progressB. you can kill yourself by another meansC. there is another factor to prevent us from evolvingD. we have to find a way to do something18.The example of India interprets that A. wealthy people tend to have fewer children than poor peopleB. natural selection hardly works
46、 among the rich and the poorC. the middle-class population is 80% smaller than that of the tribesD. India is one of the countries with a very high birth rate 19.The author argues that our bodies have stopped evolving because A. life has been improved by technological advanceB. the number of female babies has been decliningC. our species has reached the highest stage of evolutionD. the difference between wealth and poverty is disappearing 20.What is the main idea of the pass
