A

Many students are planning field trips as spring draws near. Fourteen-year-old Zhou Liqun is busy digging holes along rivers. The girl and her “One Piece of Paper Team” are planting trees to improve the environment.

They collect waste paper to sell for trees and have set up websites to spread the message of connections between humans and nature. “We want to make environmental protection everyone’s habit,” says the girl. “Even a piece of paper matters.”

Eager to join Zhou in such meaningful work Now you are offered advice on what to do. Last month, measures for public participation in environmental protection were published by the State Environmental protection Administration (SEPA, 国家环保总局). The special measures are expected to change the light rain of the past into a storm of environmental protection.

Last year’s Songhua River pollution acted as an alarm to Chinese people. According to SEPA officials, environmental pollution has become serious, and will continue so for the next 15 years.

A recent survey showed that though most Chinese people care about environmental problems, they don’t put their concerns into practice. One reason is that they don’t know how. So the newly published m easures present information about how to report environmental problems and how to join in the battle against pollution.

Actually there is much you can do in daily life. Buy less to reduce waste. Don’t throw away things before you have made the most use of them. Use electricity, water and gas only when necessary. Switch them off when you don’t need them.

Everyone can participate in making the planet suitable for future generations. Why not join in and make our world more fantastic

59.What is the writer’s purpos e of writing the passage

A. To praise Zhou Liqun and her friends.

B. To remind us that our world is heavily polluted.

C. To give us advice on how to make environmental protection everyone’s habit.

D. To call on people to join in the fight against the environmental pollution.

60.According to the passage, what does the underlined sentence mean in paragraph

3

A. The government is hoping for a heavy storm in order to make our world clean.

B. People hate that it often rained gently in the past.

C. Measures are expected to strengthen the action of keeping the world clean.

D. The measures are sure to work.

61.Which of the following is NOT mentioned in the passage

A. Zhou Liqun dug hole along rivers.

B. The students have set up websites.

C. Buy less to reduce waste in daily life.

D. Never use coal, water and gas unless necessary.

62.What is the best title of the passage

A. Songhua River is in Danger

C. Measures to Reduce Waste

D. Pollution Makes Our World Worse

B

On average, American kids aged 3 to 12 spent 29 hours a week in school, eight hours more than they did in 1981. They also did more household work and took part in more of such organized activities as soccer and ballet. Involvement in sports, in particular, rose almost 50% from 1981 to 2004; boys now spend an average of four hours a week playing sports; girls spend half that time. All in all, however, children’s leisure time dropped from 40% of the day in 1981 to 25%.

“Children are affected by the same time crunch (危机) that affects their parents,” says Sandra Hofferth, who headed the recent study of children’s timetable. A chief reason, she says, is that more mothers are working outside the home. Nevertheless, children in both double-income and “male breadwinner” households spent comparable amounts of time with their parents, 19 hours and 22 hours respectively. In contrast, children spent only 9 hours with their single mothers.

All work and no play could make for some ver y disordered kids. “Play is the most powerful way a child explores the world and learns about himself,” says T. Berry Brazeiton, professor at Harvard Medical School. Unstructured play encourages independent thinking and allows the young to negotiate(=deal with) their relationships with their peers, but kids aged 3 to 12 spent only 12 hours a week engaged in it.

The children sampled spent a quarter of their rapidly decreasing “free time” watching television. But that, believe it or not, was one of the findings parents regard as good news. If they’re spending less time in front of the TV set, however, kids aren’t replacing it with reading. Despite efforts to get kids more interested in books, the children spent just over an hour a week reading. Let’s face it, who’s got time

63.The author is concerned about the fact that American kids _______.

A. are involved less and less in household work

B. are spending more and more time watching TV

C. are engaged in more and more organized activities

D. are increasingly cared for by their working mothers

64.By mentioning “the same time crunch” Sandra Hofferth means _______.

A. children have little time to play with their parents

B. both parents and children suffer from lack of leisure time

C. both parents and children have trouble managing their time

D, children are not taken good care of by their working parents

65.According to the author a child develops better if _______.

A. he has plenty of time reading and studying

B. he is free to interact with his working parents

C. he is left to play with his peers in his own way

D. he has more time taking part in school activities

66.We can infer from the passage that _______.

A. most parents believe reading to be of benefit to children

B. efforts to get kids interested in reading have been fruitful

C. most children will turn to reading with TV sets switched off

D. organized activities improve children’s intelligence

C

The human body is a living machine, and like all machines, it needs “fuel” to supply it with energy. This is provided by the food we eat. But how much do we need to stay healthy

The energy value of food is usually measured in calories. A calorie is the amount of heat required to raise the temperature of 1 kg of water by 1°C. The number of calories people need per day is different, as the chart below shows. Also, the number of calories you use at any moment normally depends on the activity you are in. For example, you need more calories for standing than for sitting, more for running than for walking, and so on

The energy in food is mainly in the form of three kinds of chemical materials—carbohydrate, protein and fat. Carbohydrate provides Cal/gm(calories per gram) of energy, protein Cal/gm, and fat Cal/gm. Each food contains different amounts of these materials, as the second chart Shows.

67._______ calories are required to raise the temperature of 5kg of water form

35°C to 90°C

A. 55

B. 175

C. 325

D. 275

68.If you lack for calories to support your running activities you’d better take

more _______.

A. milk

B. peanuts

C. rice

D. milk and rice

69.We may learn form the charts that _______.

A. a child aged 8 requires more than 3 times the amount of calories that a baby does

B. a boy aged 16 requires nearly twice the amount of calories that a boy aged 8 does

C. a mother with a baby to feed uses up more calories than a hard-working farmer each day

D. an old man needs less calories than an 8-year-old boy on account of his

less movement

70.Which statement agrees with the passage and the charts above

A. You need more calories for swimming than for mountain climbing.

B. Food contains energy in the form of carbohydrates, proteins and fuel.

C. Different people need different amounts of energy depending on their age,

sex, and the activities they are in.

D. 3 grams of milk provides calories because carbohydrate provides Cal/gm,

protein Cal/gm, and fat Cal/gm.

D

Health and climate scientists have mapped how climate change affects different parts of the world in different ways. The scientists point to evidence

that changes in the past thirty years may already be affecting human health. Temperature changes may also influence the spread of disease. For example, warmer weather speeds the growth of organisms that cause diseases like malaria and dengue fever.

The work by Scientists form the University of Wisconsin–Madison and the world Health Organization appeared in the journal Nature. Jonathan Patz, professor

of the Gaylord Nelson Institute, led the study. He notes that climate scientists linked global warming to the heat that killed thousands in Europe in August of 2003. He says poor countries are least responsible for the warming, yet are most

at risk from the health effects of higher temperatures. He says areas at greatest

risk include Southern and Eastern Africa and coastlines along the Pacific and Indian Oceans. Also, large cities experience what scientists call a “heat island” effect that can intensify conditions.

Professor Patz says average temperatures worldwide have increased about

one-third of a degree Celsius in the last thirty years. But he tells us even

that can make a difference with a disease like malaria. The report says average temperatures could increase by as much as six degrees Celsius by the end of the century.

Representatives from about two hundred nations have been meeting in Montreal, Canada, to discuss climate change. The ten-day conference ends December ninth.

It is the first such United Nations meeting since the Kyoto (京都) Protocol took effect earlier this year. The protocol seeks to reduce the amount of carbon

dioxide and other heat-trapping gases released as pollution into the air.

71.The text mainly talks about _______.

A. the spread of malaria

B. effects of human activities on climate

C. a ten-day conference in Montreal

D. health effects caused by climate change

72.Which of the following is NOT true according to the text

A. Some diseases spread faster in hot weather.

B. Human activities contribute to the climate change.

C. Poor countries suffer least from the effects of higher temperatures.

D. Even a slight change in temperature may affect the spread of some diseases.

73.The underlined word “intensify” in the second paragraph is closest in

meaning to _______.

A. strengthen

B. prevent

C. lessen

D. reflect

74.According to the text, the Kyoto Protocol aims at _______.

A. limiting the release of greenhouse gases

B. preventing the spread of malaria and dengue fever

C. studying how climate change affect human health

D. organizing representatives to meet regularly in Montreal

A linguist, an expert on languages, is always listening, never off-duty. I invited a group of friends to my house, telling them that I was going to record their speech. I said I was interested in their regional accents, and that it

would take just a few minutes. Thus, one evening, three people came to my house and were shown into my front room. In front of each chair there was a microphone at head height, connected to a recorder in the middle of the floor. They sat down, rather nervously and I explained that all I wanted was for them to count from one to twenty. Then we could relax and have a drink.

I turned on the recorder and each in turn counted from one to twenty in their best accents. When it was over, I turned the recorder off and brought round the drinks. I joined them in talking and joking freely. Then I left them for a telephone call which lasted some time. The rest of the evening seemed to be spent into total relaxation.

Or at least that is how it would appear. For, of course, the microphones were not connected to the recorder in the middle of the room at all but to another one in the bedroom. My friends, having seen the recorder before them turned off, paid no attention to the microphones a few inches from their mouths, thus giving excellent sound quality.

I should add, perhaps, that I did tell my friends what had happened to them, after the recording was over, and asked them whether it should be destroyed. None of them wanted to –but for some years after that, it always seemed that when it came to buying drinks, it was I who paid for them. Linguistic research can be a very expensive business.

75.The writer asked his friends to count from one to twenty because he _______.

A. wanted to record how they pronounced numbers in their own regional accents

B. wanted them to believe that was all he would record

C. wanted to discover who had the best pronunciation

D. had to check if the recorder was working

76.The writer left them in the middle of the evening because _______.

A. he had to make a phone call

B. the phone rang in the bedroom

C. he wanted the others to have a talk without him

D. he liked to stay with them and didn’t stop talking until the phone rang

77.The writer managed to get as _______ a piece of talk as it would be possible

to find.

A. clear

B. natural

C. excellent

D. expensive

78.The last sentence of the passage shows _______.

A. you will pay much money if you want to do some linguistic research work

B. his friends always made him buy them drinks in return

C. the writer’s kindness and humor

D. linguistic research is a kind of business
