slowed down to a walking pace and almost stopped. when they eventually got to the theatre, the ballet was over. mrs. lester could not work out how it had taken them so long to get there, even taking the fog into account. the theatre was within walking distance of their house. it took her a long time to get over the disappointment. a month later, mrs. lester found out what had happened. mr.lester told a friend of his that he had taken wrong turning on purpose. this friend told his wife, and the wife immediately went around to tell mrs. lester. the two women began to plan a revenge. one day,

lester came in. they heard him take hisc oat off. he walked towards the study door and opened it. there was no chance for the women to get away without being seen. mr. lester switched the light on and

friend is a .看答案a. social workerb. house cleanerc. baby sitterd. gossip 5. how many persons are mentioned in this story?看答案a. threeb. fourc. fived. six. passage 2the motor vehicle has killed and disabled more people in its brief history than any bomb or weapon ever invented. much of the blood on the street flows essentially from uncivil behavior of drivers who refuse to respect the legal and moral rights of others. so the massacre on the road may be regarded as a social problem. in fact, the enemies of society on wheels are rather harmless people just ordinary people acting carelessly, you might say. but it is a principle both of law and common morality that carelessness is no excuse when one's actions could bring death or damage to others. a minority of the killers go even beyond carelessness to total negligence. researchers have estimated that as many as 80 per cent of all automobile accidents can be attributed to the psychological condition of the driver. emotional upsets can distort drivers' reactions, slow their judgement, and blind them to dangers that might otherwise be evident. the experts warn that it is vital for every driver to make a conscious effort to keep one's emotions under control. yet the irresponsibility that accounts for much of the problem is not confined to drivers. street walkers regularly violate traffic regulations, they are at fault in most vehicle walker accidents; and many cyclists even believe that they are not subject to the basic rules of the road. significant legal advances have been made towards safer driving in the past few years. safety standards for vehicle have been raised both at the point of manufacture and through periodic road-worthiness inspections. in addition, speed limits have been lowered. due to these measures, the accident rate has decreased. but the accident experts still worry because there has been little or no improvement in the way drivers behave. the only real and lasting solution, say the experts, is to convince people that driving is a skilled task requiring constant care and concentration. those who fail to do all these things present a threat to those with whom they share the road.6. what is the author's main purpose in writing the passage?看答案a. to show that the motor vehicle is a very dangerous invention.b. to promote understanding between careless drivers and street walkers.c. to discuss traffic problems and propose possible solutions.d. to warn drivers of the importance of safe driving. 7. according to the passage, traffic accidents may be regarded as a social problem because .看答案a. autos have become most destructive to mankindb. people usually pay little attention to law and moralityc. civilization brings much harm to peopled. the lack of virtue is becoming more severe 8. why does the author mention the psychological condition of the driver in paragraph three?看答案a. to give an example of the various reasons for road accidents.b. to show how important it is for drivers to be emotionally healthy.c. to show some of the inaccurate estimations by researchers.d. to illustrate the hidden tensions in the course of driving. 9. who are not mentioned as being responsible for the road accidents?看答案a. careless bicycle-riders.b. mindless people walking in the street.c. irresponsible drivers.d. irresponsible manufactures of automobiles. 10. which of the following best reflects the author's attitude toward a future without traffic accident problems?看答案a. doubtful yet still longing forb. happy and rather confidentc. surprised and very pleasedd. disappointed and deeply worried passage 3 in the early days of nuclear power, the united states made money on it. but today opponents have so complicated its development that no nuclear plants have been ordered or built here in 12 years. the greatest fear of nuclear power opponents has always been a reactor “meltdown”. today, the chances of a meltdown that would threaten u.s. public health are testing new reactors that rely not on human judgment to shut them down but on the laws of nature. now general electric is already building two advanced reactors in japan. but don't expect them even on u.s. shores unless things change in washington. the procedure for licensing nuclear power plants is a bad dream. any time during, or even after, construction, an objection by any group or individual can bring everything to a halt while the matter is investigated or taken to court. meanwhile, the builder must add nice but not necessary improvements, some of which force him to knock down walls and start over. in every case when a plant has been opposed, the nuclear regulation commission has ultimately granted a license to construct or operate. but the victory often costs so much that the utility ends up abandoning the plant anyway. a case in point is the shoreham plant on new york's long island. shoreham was a virtual twin to the millstone plant in connecticut, both ordered in the mid 60s'. millstone, complete for $ 101 million, has been generating electricity for two decades. shoreham, however, was singled out by antinuclear activists who, by sending in endless protests, drove the cost over $ 5 billion and delayed its use for many years.shoreham finally won its operation license. but the plant has never produced a watt power. governor mario cuomo, an opponent of a shoreharn start up, used his power to force new york's publicutilities commission to accept the following settlement: the power company could pass the cost of shoreham along to its consumers only if it agreed not to operate the plant. today, a perfectly good facility, capable of servicing hundreds of thousands of homes, sits rusting. 11. the author's attitude towards the development of nuclear power is .看答案a. negativeb. neutralc. positived. questioning 12. what has made the procedure for licensing nuclear plants a bad dream?看答案a. the inefficiency of the nuclear regulation commission.b. the enormous cost of construction and operation.c. the length of time it takes to make investigations.d. the objection of the opponents of nuclear power. 13. it can be inferred from paragraph 2 that .看答案a. there are not enough safety measures in the u.s. for running new nuclear power plantsb. it is not technical difficulties that prevent the building of nuclear power plants in the u.s.c. there are already more nuclear power plants than necessary in the u.s.d. the american government will not allow japanese nuclear reactors to be installed in the u.s. 14. governor mario cuomo's chief intention in proposing the settlement was to .看答案a. stop the shoreham plant from going into operationb. urge the power company to further increase its power supplyc. permit the shoreham plant to operate under certain conditionsd. help the power company to solve its financial problems 15. from which sentence of the article can you see the attitude of the author and that of govenor mario cuomo respectively?看答案a. the 2nd sentence in the frist paragraph, the 3rd sentence in the last paragraph.b. the last sentence, the last sentence but one c. the last sentence in para.2, last sentence but one.d. the last sentence in para 3, the 3rd sentence in the fifth paragraph. passage 4oes a bee know what is going on in its mind when it navigates its way to distant food sources and back to the hive

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 and mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the center.Passage OneQuestions 21 to 25 are based on the following passage.Design of all the new tools and implements is based on careful experiments with electronic instruments. First, a human “guinea pig”is tested using a regular tool. Measurements are taken of the amount of work done, and the buildup of heat in the body. Twisted joints and stretched muscles can not perform as well, it has been found, as joints and muscles in their normal positions. The same person is then tested again, using a tool designed according to the suggestions made by Dr. Tichauer. All these tests have shown the great improvement of the new designs over the old.One of the electronic instruments used by Dr. Tichauer, the myograph (肌动记器), makes visible through electrical signals the work done by human muscle.Another machine measures any dangerous features of tools, thus proving information upon which to base a new design. One conclusion of tests made with this machine is that a tripod stepladder is more stable and safer to use than one with four legs. This work has attracted the attention of efficiency experts and time-and-motion-study engineer, but its value goes far beyond that. Dr. Tichauer’s first thought is for the health of the tool user. With the repeated use of the same tool all day long on production lines and in other jobs, even light manual work can put a heavy stress on one small area of the body. In time, such stress can cause a disabling disease. Furthermore, muscle fatigue is a serious safety hazard.Efficiency is the by-product of comfort, Dr. Tichauer believes, and his new designs for traditional tools have proved his point.21. What are involved in the design of a new tool according to the passage?A) Electronic instruments and a regular tool.B) A human “guinea pig”and a regular tool.C) Electronic instruments and a human “guinea pig”.D) Electronic instruments, a human “guinea pig”and a regular tool.22. From the passage we know that joints and muscles perform best when __________________.A) they are twisted and stretchedB) they are in their normal positionsC) they are tested with a human “guinea pig”D) they are tested with electronic instruments23. A “myograph”(Para. 2, Line 1) is an electronic instrument that ________________.A) is able to design new toolsB) measures the amount of energy usedC) enable people to see the muscular movementsD) visualizes electrical signals24. It can be inferred from the passage that ________________.A) a stepladder used to have four legs.B) it is dangerous to use toolsC) a tripod is safer in a tool designD) workers are safer on production lines25. Dr. Tichauer started his experiments initially to _________________.A) improve efficiencyB) increase productionC) reduce work loadD) improve comfortQuestions 26 to 30 are based on the following passage:More and more, the operations of our businesses, governments, and financial institutions are controlled by information that exists only inside computer memories. Anyone clever enough to modify this information for his own purposes can reap big reward. Even worse, a number of people who have done this and been caught at it have managed to get away without punishment.It’s easy for computer crimes to go undetected if no one checks up on what the computer is doing. But even if the crime is detected, the criminal may walk away not only unpunished but with a glowing recommendation from his former employers.Of course, we have no statistics on crimes that go undetected. But it’s disturbing to note how many of the crimes we do know about were detected by accident, not by systematic inspections or other security procedures. The computer criminals who have been caught may have been the victims of uncommonly bad luck.Unlike other lawbreakers, who must leave the country, commit suicide, or go to jail, computer criminals sometimes escape punishment, demanding not only that they not be charged but that they be given good recommendations and perhaps other benefits. All too often, their demands have been met.Why? Because company executives are afraid of the bad publicity that would result if the public found out that their computer had been misused. They hesitate at the thought of a criminal boasting in open court of how he juggled (诈骗) the most confidential (保密)records right under the noses of the company’s executives, accountants, and security staff. And so another computer criminal departs with just the recommendations he needs to continue his crimes elsewhere.26. It can be concluded from the passage that _______________.A) it is still impossible to detect computer crimes todayB) people commit computer crimes at the request of their companyC) computer criminals escape punishment because they can’t be detectedD) computer crimes are the most serious problem in the operation of financial institutions27. It is implied in the third paragraph that _________________.A) most computer criminals who are caught blame their bad luckB) the rapid increase of computer crimes is a troublesome problemC) most computer criminals are smart enough to cover up their crimesD) many more computer crimes go undetected that are discovered28. Which of the following statements is mentioned in the passage?A) A strict law against computer crimes must be enforcedB) Companies usually hesitate to uncover computer crimes to protect their reputationC) Companies will guard against computer crimes to protect their reputationD) Companies need to impose restrictions on confidential information29. What may happen to computer criminals once they are caught?A) With a bad reputation they can hardly find another job.B) They may walk away and easily find another job.C) They will be denied access to confidential recordsD) They must leave the country to go to jail.30. The passage is mainly about _________________.A) why computer criminals are often able to escape punishmentB) why computer crimes are difficult to detect by systematic inspectionsC) how computer criminals mange to get good recommendations from their former employersD) why computer crimes can’t be eliminatedQuestions 31 to 35 are based on the following passage.In a family where the roles of men and women are not sharply separated and where many household tasks are shared to a greater or lesser extent, notions of male superiority are hard to maintain. The pattern of sharing in tasks and indecision makes for equality and this in turn leads to further sharing. In such a home, the growing boy and girl learn to accept equality more easily than did their parents and to prepare more fully for participation in a world characterized by cooperation rather than by the “battle of the sexes”.If the process goes too far and man’s role is regarded as less important –and that has happened in some cases – we are as badly off as before, only in reverse.It is time to reassess the role of the man in the American family. We are getting a little tired of “Momism”– but we don’t want to exchange it for a “neo-Popism”. What we need, rather, is the recognition that bringing up children involves a partnership of equals. There are signs that psychiatrists, psychologists, social workers, and specialists on the family are becoming more aware of the part men play and that they have decided that women should not receive all the credit – nor the blame. We have almost given up saying that a woman’s place is in the home. We are beginning, however, to analyse man’s place in the home and to insist that he does have a place in it. Nor is that place irrelevant to the healthy development of the child.The family is a co-operative enterprise for which it is difficult to lay down rules, because each family needs to work out itsown ways for solving its own problems.Excessive authoritarianism(命令主义)has unhappy consequences, whether it wears skirts or trousers, and the ideal of equal rights and equal responsibilities is pertinent (相关的,切题的)not only to a healthy democracy, but also to a healthy family.31. The ideal of equal rights and equal responsibilities is _________________.A) fundamental to a sound democracyB) not pertinent to healthy family lifeC) responsible for MomismD) what we have almost given up32. The danger in the sharing of household tasks by the mother and the father is that ___________.A) the role of the father may become an inferior one’B) the role of the mother may become an inferior oneC) C) the children will grow up believing that life is a battle of sexesD) sharing leads to constant arguing33. The author states that bringing up children ________________.A) is mainly the mother’s jobB) belongs among the duties of the fatherC) is the job of schools and churchesD) involves a partnership of equals34. According to the author, the father’s role in the home is ____________________.A) minor because he is an ineffectual parentB) irrelevant to the healthy development of the childC) pertinent to the healthy development of the childD) identical to the role of the child’s mother35. With which of the following statements would the author be most likely to agree?A) A healthy, co-operative family is a basic ingredient of a healthy society.B) Men are basically opposed to sharing household chores.C) Division of household responsibilities is workable only in theory.D) A woman’s place in the home – now as always.Questions 36 to 40 are based on the following passage:Teaching children to read well from the start is the most important task of elementary schools. But relying on educators to approach this task correctly can be a great mistake. Many schools continue to employ instructional methods that have been proven ineffective. The staying power of the “look-say” or “whole-word” method of teaching beginning reading is perhaps the most flagrant example of this failure to instruct effectively.The whole-word approach to reading stresses the meaning of words over the meaning of letters, thinking over decoding, developing a sight vocabulary of familiar words over developing the ability to unlock the pronunciation of unfamiliar words. It fits in with the self-directed, “learning how to learn”activities recommended by advocates (倡导者)of “open”classrooms and with the concept that children have to be developmentally ready to begin reading. Before 1963, no major publisher put out anything but these “Run-Spot-Run” readers.However, in 1955, Rudolf Flesch touched off what has been called “the great debate”in beginning reading. In his best-seller Why Johnny Can’t Read, Flesch indicted(控诉)the nation’s public schools for miseducating students by using the look-say method. He said – andmore scholarly studies by Jeane Chall and Rovert Dykstra later confirmed –that another approach to beginning reading, founded on phonics(语⾳学), is far superior.Systematic phonics first teachers children to associate letters and letter combinations with sounds; it then teaches them how to blend these sounds together to make words. Rather than building up a relatively limited vocabulary of memorized words, it imparts a code by which the pronunciations of the vast majority of the most common words in the English language can be learned. Phonics does not devalue the importance of thinking about the meaning of words and sentences; it simply recognizes that decoding is the logical and necessary first step.36. The author feels that counting on educators to teach reading correctly is _____________.A) only logical and natural B) the expected positionC) probably a mistake D) merely effective instruction37. The author indicts the look-say reading approach because _________________.A) it overlooks decoding B) Rudolf Flesch agrees with himC) he says it is boring D) many schools continue to use this method38. One major difference between the look-say method of learning reading and the phonics method is _______________.A) look-say is simpler B) Phonics takes longer to learnC) look-say is easier to teach D) phonics gives readers access to far more words39. The phrase “touch-off”(Para 3, Line 1) most probably means _____________.A) talk about shortly B) start or causeC) compare with D) oppose40. According to the author, which of the following statements is true?A) Phonics approach regards whole-word method as unimportant.B) The whole-word approach emphasizes decoding.C) In phonics approach, it is necessary and logical to employ decoding.D) Phonics is superior because it stresses the meaning of words thus the vast majority of mostcommon words can be learned.Part Three Vocabulary and StructureDirections: There are 30 incomplete sentences in this part.

At 39, she had burned through her retirement funds after losing her law-firm jobin July 2007. She gave the bank the keys to the home she was unable to sell in GrandRapids, Mich., and last November, she packed up her two Great Danes and moved about60 miles, to Lansing, to live with her mother and stepfather. “This has been awful,” saysBliss, who has sent out some 600 resumes nationwide looking for legal work or amanagerial position in another field. “I went to law school to have a solid profession sothat I wouldn’t wind up in a situation like this.”B)The term boomerang children used to refer to young adults moving back in withtheir parents, but the recession is forcing people in their 30s and 40s and older--oftenwith a spouse and kids in tow--to stay with the parents until they regain their financialfooting. Since the recession began in December 2007, the US has lost 3.6 million jobs.An AARP survey released in May found that more than a third of retirees have had tohelp a child pay bills in the last year. And the number of multigenerational householdshas increased from 5 million in 2000 to 6.2 million in 2008, according to AARP.Crowded quarters, wounded pride and general anxiety about the global economic crisisdo not make the most pleasant living situation. But there are ways to ease the transition.Talk about ExpectationsC)And be sure to discuss one another’s needs up front, says Brian Carpenter, apsychology professor at WashingtonUniversity in St. Louis, Mo. Failure to do so can leadto a lot of conflicts. That’s what happened when Michael Gallagher, 40, moved in withhis mother in Los Angeles in October 2007 after he was fired from his job as an audioengineer. “When he came home to live, I was thinking ‘family’, and he was thinking‘roommate’,” says BJ Gallagher, 59, an author and a video producer. “I would feel badwhen he wouldn’t say hello when he walked in the door.” At the same time, her son feltshe was checking up on him and “lurking”(潜伏)around, she says. “We both ended updisappointed and annoyed until we discussed it and dealt with it.”3 / 5D)Donna Butts, executive director of Generations United, an intergenerational advocacy group based in Washington, says it’s a good idea to create an approximate timetable for achieving specific goals, such as “get a job”, “move out”.Build in PrivacyE)If possible, everyone should have at least some space of his or her own. For instance, when Michael Gallagher took over the part of his mother’s house that she had been using as an office, she moved her computer and video equipment into a much smaller room adjoining her bedroom. “We each needed our own space. There was no way around that,” BJ says of the rearranging she had to accommodate her son.Share Household ExpensesF)Pay parents rent, or help with bills, and take over housework like mowing the lawn. “This way, everyone is helping in some way, and no one feels taken advantage of,”says Elizabeth Carll, a psychologist in Huntington, N. Y., who is an expert on dealing with stress. Bliss does all the cooking and cleaning. Michael Gallagher buys his own food, and beyond that, his mother says, he has “paid in trade” by persuading her to have the hip replacement she had needed for a while and by taking care of her after the operation.G)In late 2006, John Kreuzer, 30, and his wife moved from Portland, Ore., into his in-laws’ house in San Jose, Calif., because he got a public relation job in Silicon Valley. They decided to keep staying there--with their two little kids--because Kreuzer’s father-in-law was laid off. As the job market got tighter, it just made sense for everyone to share living expenses in such a high-cost area, Kreuzer says.H)Along the way, there have been differences of opinion when it comes to bringing up children. Kreuzer has explained to his children that they must abide by their grandparents’ rules, e.g., no r oughhousing(打闹的)indoors. “My in-laws really help out with the kids while my wife and I are working,” he says. “I know that once we move out, my children will miss their time together with Grandma and Pop-pop.” Once we move out? That brings up one last point.Be RealisticI)The economy has to turn around someday, and in the meantime, rents are falling. In March, Kreuzer and his family are moving into a nearby town house with rent so cheap, he can continue to help his in-laws pay their monthly bills. Michael Gallagher also found a killer deal on a rental. He moved out of his mom’s place in November, but she has yet to rearrange her stuff. “I’m not moving anything back just yet,”she says. “With this awful economy, he could boomerang(回来)right back in here.”46.Failure to discuss each other’s needs can result in a lot of conflicts.47.Michael Gallagher helped his mother by caring for her after her surgery.48.Michael Gallagher’s mother moved her computer into a smaller room in order toprovide personal space for her son.49.The children have been told that they have to comply with their grandparents’ rules.50.The economy will recover sooner or later, and at the same time, rents will fall.51.With the job market becoming tighter, it is sensible for people living in the high-costarea to share living expenses.52.A female lawyer said she went to law school for the purpose of finding a decent job.53.The number of families sharing one house between different generations hasincreased by 1.2 million.54.A lawyer used up her pension funds when she lost her job.55.Michael Gallagher was thinking they were just roommates when he moved to livewith his mother.Section CDirections:There is 1 passage in this section. It is followed by some questions orunfinished statements. There are four choices marked A), B), C) and D). You shoulddecide on the best choice and mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with asingle line through the center.Like a needle climbing up a bathroom scale, the number keeps rising. In 1991, 15% of Americans were obese(肥胖)。

Choose the best word(s) for each numbered blank and mark A, B, C, D on ANSWER SHEET 1.The loudest outcry about poverty seemed to come in the wealthiest country by far in the world. According to most calculations, 21 most of the 1945-1970 period the United States had a standard of living well 22 Europe’s and many times above the world 23 . Yet 24 about grinding poverty, hunger, and dreadful need proceed more from the United States than from countries with one-fortieth of their living standard. An annual per capita income of eight dollars is 25 of much of Africa and Asia and not a little of South America.It would seem strange to these people 26 they only aware of the fact that American radicals demand a 27 from an American 28 to the far corners of the globe so that the money thus saved can be spent raising the standard of living of 29 Americans. What this last point suggests is not so much that human 30 are never to be satisfied though this is doubtlessly true, and the American suburbanite 31 of his second car and his color TV suffers just as 32 as an African farmer in need of a second cow and a screen door. Rather, it suggests the 33 of contemporary breach of social 34 —the emancipation of the individual self.People have learned to consider any 35 to personalfulfillment an 36 insult. They have greatly expanded the circle of self-awareness. They no longer accept sharp limitations on individual desires in the 37 of the group. The amount of potential human discontent has always been 38 —misery, failure, misfitting, bitterness, hatred, envy 39 telling. It has usually failed of 40 , and in the past it was accepted passively as being beyond help.21、 A. until B. through C. in D. onto22、 A. over B. above C. against D. below23、 A. average B. common C. mean D. ordinary24、 A. storms B. rage C. protests D. fury25、 A. now that B. regardless C. ignorant D. typical26、 A. was B. being C. were D. to be27、 A. retreat B. compromise C. restraint D. detachment28、 A. confinement B. commitment C. complement D. concealment29、 A. underprivileged B. misguided C. underlined D. overjoyed30、 A. anticipations B. shelters C. shortages D. wants31、 A. informed B. deprived C. ensured D. relieved32、 A. acutely B. abnormally C. aggressively D. initially33、 A. margin B. scope C. range D. extent34、 A. liberties B. norms C. institutions D. practices35、 A. access B. exception C. obstacle D. approach36、 A. incomprehensible B. uninterpretable C. intolerable D. negligible37、 A. face B. company C. name D. wake38、 A. bulky B. prompt C. momentary D. infinite39、 A. at B. beyond C. on D. with40、 A. utterance B. admittance C. compliance D. importance知识应用参考答案:21.B22.B23.A24.C25.D26.C27.A28.B29.A30.D31.B32.A33.D34.B35.C36.C37.C.C38.D39.B40.AText 1No one should be forced to wear a uniform under any circumstance. Uniforms are demeaning to the human spirit and totally unnecessary in a democratic society. Uniforms tell the world that the person who wears one has no value as an individual but only lives to function as a part of the whole. The individual in a uniform loses all self-worth. There are those who say that wearing a uniform gives a person a sense of identification with a large, more important concept. What could be more important than the individual oneself? If an organization is so weak that it must rely on cloth and buttons to inspire its members, that organization has no right to continue its existence.Others say that the practice of making persons wear uniforms, say in school, eliminates all envy and competition in a matter of dress, such that a poor person who cannot afford good-quality clothing, why would anyone strive to be better? It is only a short step from forcing everyone to wear the same clothing to forcing everyone to drive the same car, have the same type of house, eat the same type of food. When this happens, all incentive to improve one’s life is removed. Why would parents bother to work hard so that their children could have a better life than they had when they know that their children are going to be forced to have exactly the same life that they had? Uniforms also hurt the economy. Right now, billions of dollars are spent on the fashion industry yearly.Thousands of persons are employed in designing, creating, and marketing different types of clothing. If everyone were forced to wear uniforms, artistic personnel would be unnecessary. Salespersons would be superfluous as well: why bother to sell the only items that are available? The wearing of uniforms would destroy the fashion industry which in turn would have a ripple effect on such industries as advertising and promotion. Without advertising, newspapers, magazines, and television would not be able to remain in business. Our entire information and entertainment industries would founder.41、The author’s viewpoint on uniforms can best be described as __________.A. practicalB. hystericalC. radicalD. critical42、Judged from its style, this passage might be found in __________.A. a children’s comics bookB. an editorial in a paperC. a sociology textbookD. a political platform43、It can be inferred that the author believes that __________.A. individuals have no self-worth when they become part of an organizationB. individuals are more important than organizationsC. individuals are not so important as organizationsD. individuals are the same important as organizations44、The author brings in the example of a parent striving to make life better for his children to make the point that __________.A. parents have responsibilities for their childrenB. uniforms would be less expensive than clothing for childrenC. uniforms cause dissension between parents and childrenD. individual motivation would be destroyed by uniforms(本题分值:1.5分)【正确答案】D45、The last word of the passage "founder" probably means __________.A. collapseB. shrinkC. disappearD. establishAlthough many governments try to convince their respective subjects that atomic energy is an acceptable alternative _1__ the burning of fossil fuels,no government has taken the least trouble to explain the dangers.Maybe they are __2_ them.__3_ the reason,the public must learn by experience,even though this _4__ may be catastrophic.While it is true that nuclear reactors do not produce visible smoke,it is certainly not __5_ that they do not pollute.And the pollution they produce is much more insidious precisely because it is __6_.__7_ inconvenient it may be for governments to publish all the facts,they have no moral excuse for not doing so,__8_ they think they are acting in our best interest.At least some of the facts are known,even though they are not widely reported.Nuclear reactors produce radioactive water and gases in vast _9__.What __10_ all this waste?It is __11_ concrete tanks and stored on tank farms.It is __12_ in disused salt mines.It is run into fractured rock.It is buried.It is __13_ about in special trains.Buteven when dumped,it has to be kept __14_ by sprinklers to stop it from boiling.And the contents of the tanks are,of course,extremely corrosive.The efforts of a fracture in the tank or a failure of the cooling system would be _15__.While every effort is made to _16__ that radioactive wastes do not excape into the sea or _17__ supplies of drinking water,such a leakage would be too horrible __18_ contemplate.But even then ,governments would presumably continue to belittle the hazards.It seems that __19_ governments can get away with not telling the truth,they will continue to keep silent.Nevertheless the people _20__ to know the full facts.Do you know what happens to the radioactive waste in your country?No?Well—find out!1) A for B with C to D instead of2) A unaware of B aware of C unaware from D aware from3) A however B whatever C whenever D wherever4) A experiment B government C danger D experience6) A visible B invisible C disvisible D unvisible5) A unture B unreal C true D distrue7) A however B whatever C whenever D wherever8) A even B if even C if D even if9) A numbers B quality C quantities D degree10) A happens to B happen to C happened to D happening to11) A put down B put into C put up D puto onto12) A stored B storing C being stored D to be stored13) A transporting B transport C being transported D transported14) A hot B cooled C cool D to cool15) A disaster B danger C a disaster D disastrous16) A reassure B ensure C convince D assure17) A in front of B behind C forward D into18) A against B that C to D too下载文档。

However, if their living conditions become too crowded, their behavior pattern and even their health perceptibly change. They cannot sleep and eat well, and signs of fear and tension become obvious. The more crowded they are, the more they tend to bite each other and even kill each other. Thus for rats, population and violence are directly related.
