11、黑。Passage OneQuestions 20 to 25 are based on the following passage.In the past industries had more freedom than they have now, and they did not need to be as careful as they must today. They did not need to worry a lot about the safety of the new products that they developed. They did not have to pa
12、y much attention to the health and safety of the people who worked for them. Often new products were dangerous for the people who used them; often conditions in the work place had very bad effects on the health of the workers.Of course sometimes there were real disasters which attracted the attentio
13、n of government and which showed need for changes. Also scientists who were doing research into the health of workers sometimes produced information which governments could not ignore. At such times, there were inquiries into the causes of the disaster or the problems. New safety rules were often in
14、troduced as a result of these inquiries; however, the new rules came too late to protect the people who had died or become seriously ill.Today many governments have special departments which protect customers and workers. In the U.S., for example, there is a department which tests new airplanes and
15、gives warnings about possible problems. It also makes the rules that aircraft producers must follow. Another department controls the foods and drugs that companies sell. A third department looks at the places where people work, and then reports any companies that are breaking laws which protect the
16、health and safety of workers.11.

19、 of industriesC the protection of industrial workers and customersD the freedom of industries15. The purpose of this passage is to .A informB criticizeC entertainD persuadePassage TwoQuestions 26 to 30 are based on the following passage.I made a pledge to myself on the way down to the vacation beach
20、 cottage. For two weeks I would try to be a loving husband and father. Totally loving. No ifs, ands or buts.The idea had come to me as I listened to a talk on my car radio. The speaker was quoting a Biblical (圣经的)passage about husbands being thoughtful of their wives. Then he went on to say, “ Love
21、is an act of will. A person can choose to love. To myself, I had to admit that I had been a selfish husband. Well, for two weeks that would change.And it did. Right from the moment I kissed Evelyn at the door and said, “ That new yellow sweater (套头衫) looks great on you.“ Oh, Tom, you noticed, “ she
22、said, surprised and pleased. Maybe a little puzzled.After the long drive, I wanted to sit and read. Evelyn suggested a walk on the beach. I started to refuse, but then I thought, “Evelyns been alone here with the kids all week and now she wants to be alone with me. We walked on the beach while the c
23、hildren flew their kites.So it went. Two weeks of not calling the Wall Street firm where I am a director; a visit to the shell museum though I usually hate museums. Relaxed and happy, thats how the whole vacation passed. I made a new pledge to keep on remembering to choose love.There was one thing t
24、hat went wrong with my experiment, however. Evelyn and I still laugh about it today. On the last night at our cottage, preparing for bed, Evelyn stared at me with the saddest expression.“ What,s the matter?” I asked her.“ Tom, she said in a voice filled with distress, “do you know something I don,t?
25、”“ What do you mean?“ Well that checkup (体检) I had several weeks ago our doctor did he tell you something about me ? Tom, youve been so good to me am I dying? ”It took a moment for it all to sink in. Then I burst out laughing.“ No, honey, “ I said, wrapping her in my arms. Youre not dying; Im just s
26、tarting to live.”16. In the first paragraph, “No ifs, ands or buts” probably means “. ”A UnintentionallyB InevitablyC ImpressivelyD Unconditionally17. From the story we may infer that Tom drove to the beach cottage .A with his familyB with EvelynC aloneD with his children18. During the two weeks on
27、the beach, Tom showed more love to his wife becauseA she looked lovely in her new clothesB he had made a lot of money in his Wall Street firmC he was determined to be a good husbandD she was seriously ill19.

30、ssage.Americans who remember “ the good old days “ are not alone in complaining about the educational system in this country. Immigrants (移民) complain, too. Lately a German friend was filled with anger when he learned that the mathematics test given to his son on his first day as a college freshman
31、included multiplication and division. Japanese businessmen in Los Angeles send their children to private schools staffed by teachers imported from Japan to learn mathematics at Japanese levels, generally considered at least a year more advanced than the level here.But I wonder: If American education
32、 is so poor, why is it that this is still the country of innovation (仓ij新)?When I was 12 in Indonesia, I had to memorize the name of all the world,s major cities, from Kabul to Karachi. At the same age, my son, who was brought up a Californian, thought that Buenos Aires was Spanish for good food. Ho
33、wever, unlike children of his age in Asia and Europe, my son had studied creative geography. When he was only 6, he drew a map of the route that he traveled to get to school, including the streets, the traffic signs and the houses that he passed.Dissatisfied American parents forget that in this coun
34、try their children are able to experiment freely with ideas; without this they will not really be able to think or to believe in themselves.Critics of American education cannot grasp one thing: freedom. America, I think, is the only country that extends even to children the license to freely speak,
35、write and be creative. Our public education certainly is not perfect, but it is a great deal better than any other. I think I have found the answer to my question.21. From the text we learn that .A both Americans and immigrants are dissatisfied with the quality of American educationB the author shar
36、es the general idea that American education is worse than education in many other countriesC Japanese schools in America require their American teachers to teach mathematics at Japanese levelsD the author,s German friend was a little displeased because the mathematics test for his son was too easy22

38、y of the author,s son shows that American education is poor.23. Which of the following can be inferred from the passage?A If children are not allowed to experiment freely with ideas they won,t grow up independent and creative.B Most Americans think the present American educational system is not as g
39、ood as it used to beC Private schools run by Japanese businessmen maintain a higher level than American public schools.D Americans are more innovative than other people in the world.24. In the last paragraph the author says, “I have found the answer to my question. What is the question?A Is Japanese
40、 education better than American education?B Why do Japanese businessmen send their children to Japanese-staffed schools?C Why was my son not taught enough geographic knowledge?D Is American education really worse than education in other countries?25.
