Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A), B), C) and D). You should decide on the best choice.Passage OneQuestions 31 to 35 are based on the following passage.Terrorism may be viewed as the use of force or violence against persons or property to threaten or coerce (迫使) a government, a formal organization, or a civilian population for political, religious, or social objectives. Since terrorists commonly use violence against civilian targets, their actions are widely condemned as morally unacceptable. In practice, as with a great many other behaviors, what constitutes terrorism is a matter of social definition. When nations resort to violence to further their interests, the results are considered as being legal warfare. In many respects, terrorism is an extension of that approach by people who lack the armies of a state.For many years the public, government officials, and scholars treated terrorism primarily as a "nuisance." But recently, we have come to see terrorism as a new mode of warfare with far-reaching implications. Terrorism serves as an avenue of political expression for some militants (好战分子), whether they are motivated by ideology, ethnicity, or religion. However, what distinguishes much contemporary terrorism is not so much its motivation or purpose, but rather the extent of state involvement in carrying out well-planned and highly destructive acts against adversary nations.Another feature of contemporary terrorism has been the extent to which it has become a media event. Terrorism is usually aimed at a media audience, not the actual victims. The act of media coverage also enhances the importance of "the problem" that led to theterrorist activities. Newspaper readers and television viewers see "the problem" as of much greater importance and as justifying national or international action.31.According to the passage, terrorism is widely unacceptable ______.A) for its illegal actionsB) because it is often targeted at ordinary peopleC) as it usually leads to death and hatredD) for its violence正确答案：B32.The word "approach" at the end of the first paragraph refers to ______.A) legal warfareB) establishing a stateC) furthering one's interests via violenceD) terrorism正确答案：A33.People used to ______.A) underestimate the influence of terrorismB) pay much attention to terrorismC) suffer less from terrorists' actionsD) have sympathy with the terrorists正确答案：A34.Terrorism in the past ______.A) had different objectivesB) had different motivationsC) was more influentialD) was less closely related to governments正确答案：D35.Terrorists use media mainly ______.A) to make their aim known to the worldB) to carry out violent actionsC) as an avenue of political expressionD) to condemn the adversary nations正确答案：APassage TwoQuestions 36 to 40 are based on the following passage.As traditionally grown, under a canopy (株冠) of shade trees and amid other vegetation, coffee is an environmentally-friendly crop. The shade trees fix nitrogen in the soil, fostering the growth of the coffee bushes, and their fallen leaves provide nutrients, further reducing the need for chemical fertilizers. The mixture of vegetation prevents erosion and protects the coffee from harsh weather. In contrast to corn and cattle, which almost always require clear-cutting, coffee can be grown in relative harmony with the rain forest.Recently, however, many coffee farmers in northern Latin America have reduced or eliminated shade to grow new high-yielding coffee plants under direct sun. Fear of a disease known as coffee leaf rust sparked an early round of conversions, most of which took place in the 1970s. To prevent the spread of the disease, coffee farmers "technified," replacing older, shade-loving coffee varieties, with new varieties, packed in tight hedgerows, that can survive open sun — but only with chemical inputs.Coffee leaf rust never turned out to be a major problem for Latin America. To boost farmers' incomes, the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) spent some $80 million from the 1970s to the early 1990s, according to a report (1996) from the Smithsonian Migratory Bird Center and the Natural Resources Defense Council, to help growers in Central America and the Caribbean technify. In countries where USAID was not involved, national coffee federations promoted the change, supporting the technification of 69 percent of Colombia's coffee and nearly 40 percent of Costa Rica's.36.Growing coffee plants under shade ______.A) helps them absorb oxygen from the soilB) provides nutrients for other treesC) reduces the need for chemical fertilizersD) creates a mixture of vegetation正确答案：C37.Coffee can be grown amid the rain forest because ______.A) it can stand harsh weatherB) it can be grown together with other plantsC) it doesn't need any chemical fertilizerD) it will not erode in the forest正确答案：B38.Many coffee farmers shifted to growing coffee plants under direct sun in the 1970s ______.A) out of the fear of the spread of coffee leaf rustB) because it was more profitableC) as new varieties of coffee plants were developedD) to decrease chemical inputs正确答案：A39.Coffee leaf rust ______.A) was a great hit to the coffee industryB) cannot be eliminated by chemical fertilizersC) didn't constitute a big problem for Latin AmericaD) ended the growing history of shade coffee正确答案：C40.Many coffee farmers turned to sun coffee ______.A) as a result of the widespread of coffee leaf rustB) because it brought about higher profitC) at the request of USAIDD) with the development of technology正确答案：BPart III Vocabulary and Structure ( 10 minutes )Directions: There are a number of incomplete sentences in this part.

Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A), B), C) and D). You should decide on the best choice.Passage OneQuestions 31 to 35 are based on the following passage.We are all inclined to believe that our generation is more civilized than the generation that preceded ours. From time to time, there is even some substantial evidence that we hold in higher regard such civilized attributes as compassion, pity, remorse (懊悔), intelligence and a respect for the customs of people different from ourselves.Why war then?Some pessimistic historians think the whole society of man runs in cycles and that one of the phases is war. The optimists, on the other hand, think war is not like an eclipse (日食) or a flood or a spell of bad weather. They believe that it is more like a disease for which a cure could be found if the causes were known.Because war is the ultimate drama of life and death stories and pictures of it are more interesting than those about peace. This is so true that all of us, and perhaps those of us in television more than most, are often caught up in the action of war to the exclusion of the ideas of it.If it is true, as we would like to think it is, that our age is more civilized than ages past, we must all agree that it’s very strange that in the twentieth century, our century, we have killed more than 70 million of our fellowmen on purpose, at war. It is very strange that since 1900 more men have killed more other men than in any other seventy years in history.Probably the reason we are able to do both, that is, believe on the one hand that we are more civilized and on the other hand wage war to kill ― is that killing is not so personal an affair as it once was. The enemy is invisible. One man doesn’t look another in the eye and run him through with a sword. The enemy dead or alive is largely unseen. He is killed by remote control: a loud noise, a distant puff of smoke and then silence.The pictures of the victim’s wife and children, which he carries in his breast pocket, are destroyed with him. He is not heard to cry out. The question of compassion or pity or remorse does not enter into it. The enemy is not a man; he is a statistic. It is true, too, that more people are being killed at war now than previously because we’re better at doing it than we used to be. One man with one modern weapon can kill thousands.31.In modern wars more people get killed because _____.A) people are more cruelB) people don’t care others’ livesC) people have more advanced weaponsD) people are more civilized正确答案：C32.In what way are we more civilized than the ancients?A) We can kill more people.B) We respect those people different from us.C) We have more interesting stories of war.D) We don’t think of killing as a personal affair anymore.正确答案：B33.In modern war the enemy is treated as _____.A) an animalB) a victimC) a manD) a statistic without life正确答案：D34.How is the enemy killed in modern war?A) By an opponent running him through with a sword.B) By a man who knows him well.C) By remote control.D) By a puff of smoke.正确答案：C。
