Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. Choose the correct answer and mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the center.Passage OneHow much living space does a person need? What happens when his space requirements are not adequately met? Sociologists and psychologists are conducting experiments on rats to try to determine the effect of overcrowded conditions on man. Recent studies have shown that the behavior of rats is greatly affected by space.If rats have adequate living space, they eat well, sleep well, and reproduce well. However, if their living conditions become too crowded, their behavior patterns and even their health perceptibly change. They cannot sleep or 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. Is this a natural law for human society as well? Is adequate space not only desirable, but also essential for human survival?51、 This passage is mainly about ______.A. living space and behaviorB. population and living conditionsC. interesting experiments on ratsD. a natural law for human society52、 What is the purpose of the experiments described in the passage? ______A. To determine how much living space a rat needs.B. To see what happens when rats live in a limited space.C. To know the likely effects of inadequate living space on human beings.D. To find out the relationship between population and living conditions.53、 How would rats behave when their living conditions become too crowded? ______A. They eat a lot and become friendly to others.B. They sleep little and act quite peacefully.C. They eat little but sleep soundly.D. They become nervous and tend to be war-like.54、 The passage suggests that overcrowded conditions ______.A. are directly related with populationB. may cause an increase in violenceC. may lead to high birth rateD. may bring about pollution problemsPassage TwoMany people hope that the whole world will one day speak a common language. Over the Years, people have made up new languages with this aim. At least six hundred languages have been developed in the search for a language which all human beings would be able to speak. The most famous one, Esperanto(世界语) ,was the idea of Ludwig Zamenhof, a doctor in Warsaw. He published a book about his new language in 1887.To encourage people to learn the Language, he made it as simple as possible. Esperanto has never been accepted as an official world language, but it has been suggested as an auxiliary language. By 1950 it had been taught to one and a half million speakers, and it was spoken in six hundred schools. Today Esperanto is spoken by about eight million people, and more than one hundred newspapers and magazines in the language are published regularly throughout the world. Thousands of books have been written in Esperanto, including those translated from other languages.Today the need for a new auxiliary language like Esperanto seems less obvious.Throughout this century English has grown more and more important. It has become a second language for many millions of people. The fact that more are learning English shows that the use of English is still growing worldwide. No one would deny the usefulness of world language, but not many people think that Esperanto is likely to play such a role.55、 Over the years, people have made up new languages in the hope that ______.A. all people will be able to speak a common languageB. people will learn a foreign language betterC. people can understand each other betterD. people will be able to speak several languages56、 Zamenhof made the language as simple as possible because ______.A. he wanted people to learn it quicklyB. he hoped more and more people would be willing to learn itC. he wanted everyone to speak it without any difficultyD. he hoped it would be accepted as an official world language57、 Which of the following is NOT true of English? ______A. It is widely taught in schools.B. It has become a second language for many millions of people.C. Many books have been written in English.D. It is less popular than Esperanto.58、 What is the best title of the passage? ______A. The language made by one man.B. A talk about the world language.C. English as a second language for everyone.D. Esperanto—a better language than English.Passage ThreeAfter the violent earthquake that shook Los Angeles in 1994, earthquake scientists had news to report: The damage and death toll could have been much worse.More than 60 people died in this earthquake. By comparison, an earthquake of similar intensity that shook America in 1988 claimed 25,000 victims.Injuries and deaths were relatively less in Los Angeles because the quake occurred at 4:31 a.m. on a holiday, when traffic was light on the city's highways. In addition, changes made to the construction codes in Los Angeles during the last 20 years have strengthened the city's buildings and highways, making them more resistant to quakes.Despite the good news, civil engineers aren't resting on their successes. Pinned to their drawing boards are blueprints for improved quake-resistant buildings. The new designs should offer even greater security to cities where earthquakes often take place.In the past, making structures quake-resistant meant firm yet flexible materials, such as steel and wood, that bend without breaking. Later, people tried to lift a building off its foundation, and insert rubber and steel between the building and its foundation to reduce the impact of ground vibrations. The most recent designs give buildings brains as well as concrete and steel supports. Called smart buildings, the structures respond like living organisms to an earthquake's vibrations. When the ground shakes and the building tips forward, the computer would force the building to shift in the opposite direction.The new smart structures could be very expensive to build. However, they would save many lives and would be less likely to be damaged during earthquakes.59、 One reason why the loss of lives in the Los Angeles earthquake was comparatively low was that ______.A. new computers had been installed in the buildingsB. it occurred in the residential areas rather than on the highwaysC. large numbers of Los Angeles residents had gone for a holidayD. improvements had been made in the construction of buildings and highways60、 The function of the computer mentioned in the passage is to ______.A. counterbalance an earthquake's action on the buildingB. predict the coming of an earthquake with accuracyC. help strengthen the foundation of the buildingD. measure the impact of an earthquake's vibrations61、 It can be inferred from the passage that in minimizing the damage caused by earthquakes attention should be focused on ______.A. the increasing use of rubber and steel in capital constructionB. the development of flexible building materialsC. the reduction of the impact of ground vibrationsD. early forecasts of earthquakes62、 The main purpose of this passage is mostly to ______.A. compare the consequences of the earthquakes that occurred in the U.S.B. encourage civil engineers to make extensive use of computersC. outline the history of the development of quake-resistant building materialsD. report new developments in constructing quake-resistant building Section BDirections: Match the Chinese sentences in the left column with the English in the right column, mark the corresponding letter on the Answer with a single line through the centre.A. The desire to keep the respect of a good name propelled me to become the first in our family to go to college.B. Shielding children from the knowledge that they have failed is anything but beneficial to their development.C. We must waken people to the importance of environmental protection. Or it will be too late.D. To start with, it is not only money that he works so hard. He is committed to educating the young and tries to motivate them to get ahead in life.63、首先,他如此努力工作并非只是为了钱,他一心为了教育青年人并设法激励他们在各方面取得进步。

For each of them there are 4 choices marked A,B,C and D. You should decide on the best choice, and mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet.Passage 1I strongly believe that understanding is more important than love, especially when it comes to parenting and intimate relationships. As a psychologist for more than twenty years I can tell you that I have never had an adult looking back at her childhood and complaining that her parents were too understanding. And similarly, I have met many divorced people who still love each other but yet they never really understood each other.The painful reality is love is just not enough. I’ll admit that there are people who I love and who I still need to b etter understand. I hope I’ll continue my work to understand them. The willingness to understand is very important. It is not always easy, but healthy love is strengthened by the willingness to understand. Love without understanding will wilt like flowers without water.Our egos are what seem to get in the way of understanding those who we love and care about. Often it is our need to be right that makes what others think and feel so wrong for us. I have certainly been quite guilty of this in some of my relationships.As I have written repeatedly in my books, empathy, is truly the emotional glue that holds all close relationships together. Empathy allows us to slow down and try to walk in the shoes of those we love. The deeper our empathy, the deeper—and healthier— our love. Not all relationships are meant to be. Yet all relationships that are meant to flourish in a healthy way, must stress understanding just as much, if not more, than love.61. From the passage we know that________.A. the author complains about her parents ‘being too understandingB. the author has been studying marriages for more than 20 yearsC. people divorced mainly because they didn’t love each otherD. some people divorced because they couldn’t understand each other62. Why are we unable to understand the others sometimes?A. Because we are caring the others too much.B. Because it is quite difficult to understand the others.C. Because we believe we are always right.D. Because the others have done something wrong.63. Which of the following statements is true according to the passage?A. Understanding is more important to parenting relationship than to other intimaterelationships.B. Understanding is less important than love as far as marriage is concerned.C. Understanding is more important than love to some degree.D. Understanding is more often neglected in parenting relationship.64. If we are to understand our partners, we should ________firstly .A. have willingness to do soB. have love for themC. get into connection with themD. care about them65. In this passage, the expression “walk in the shoes of” is similar in meaning to________ .A. befriendB. understandC. loveD. care aboutPassage 2Finally, the Christmas season is over. We can take a long breath, put up our feet, sip from a cup of good tea and relax. The frenzy, starting from Black Friday right after Thanksgiving until Christmas Eve, of gift shopping, buying, wrapping, giving, receiving, opening, returning…is exhaustive and time consuming, but it takes place every year.There is considerable difference between the cultures in China and western countries when it comes to gift giving. In China, it is not polite to open a gift in front of the gift giver, and gift is only looked at after the guest has left. Here in America, gift givers always wrap their gifts, large or small, priceless or valueless, carefully and decorate them with colorful ribbons and little pretty paper flowers; and the lucky receiver is expected to open the gift right away in front of the giver, with great eagerness and curiosity, and should always express appreciation with the all time truthful comment, “this is just exactly what I wanted!” Well, as a matter of fact, most people would take their “always wanted” gi fts back to the store to exchange for something they reallywanted.Finding a gift for somebody, even a close family member, you’ll have to know what the person likes and shop for days before you can locate the perfect gift. But, still the person may not like the gift from you. Nowadays, stores would provide two copies of the receipts for anything they sell as a gift, one of which is included in the gift package so that the receiver can come back for an exchange. I know, it was unthinkable to cash out gift you get, but, times are different. Another good way to avoid all that shopping hassle is to purchase a gift card from one of the stores and send it to your niece, nephews, or a family member, so that they can get whatever they want or even keep the money.66. Finding a gift for somebody is a(n)________.A. easy jobB. tough taskC. Must be jobD. arranged task67. It is quite ________ for Chinese people to open the gift in front of the givers.A. usualB. normalC.abnormalD. unusual68. Gift giving is the same thing in China and America in that ________.A. people spend a lot of time preparing a giftB. people would cash out the gift immediatelyC. people are eager to get a gift from a friendD. people are less willing to give gifts69. Which of the following is the author’s suggestion?A. Open the gift immediately in front of the giver.B. Wrap the gift carefully.C. Express the appreciation for the gift you receive.D. Buying a present card to avoid the trouble in shopping.70. The author’s attitude towards gift giving is________ .A. indifferentB. protestingC.objectiveD. supportivePassage 3They already guide blind and disabled people;now dogs are to be trained to help people with dementia(痴呆). The duti es of these “guide dogs for the mind” will include reminding their owners to take medication, as well as encouraging them to eat, drink and sleep at regular intervals.The dementia dogs will be trained to respond to sound triggers in the home that prompt them to perform tasks. These could include delivering a bite proof bag of medicine with a note inside reminding the patient to take it, or waking them up in the morning.The idea was developed by design students at the Glasgow School of Art and will now be put into practice by Alzheimer’s Scotland and Dogs for the disabled.Joyce Gray of Alzheimer’s Scotland said: “People in the early stages of dementia are still able to live a relatively normal life, and dogs help to maintain routine.”The other advantage of using the pets as companions is that conversation can be increasingly confusing for people with Alzheimer’s, but dogs can give them a sense of silent support and companionship. People light up when they see animals. They don’t need to communicate ver bally but they can still interact. You can have a speechless bond.The dog would also encourage the owner to take them out for walks, ensuring they keep exercising and interacting with other people.71. As is mentioned in the passage, the guide dogs will do the following except for________.A. helping ensure the owner doing some exercisesB. reminding the owner to take medicineC. communicating with the owner in a non verbal wayD. helping the owner recover from the illness72. Who will train the dogs to perform such tasks?A. The students who developed the idea.B. The owners of the dogs.C. The experts in Alzheimer’s Scotland.D. It is not mentioned in the passage.73. What is true about the people suffering from dementia?A. They would like to stay with other people.B. They can maintain routine.C. They will gradually lose the ability to live a normal life.D. They would like to talk in a different way.74. The guide dogs helping the people with dementia will________.A. respond to t he owners’ orderB. respond to a sound deviceC. act on the owners’ instructionsD. act on the trainers’ order75. Having a conversation with people with dementia will be________.A. difficultB. interestingC. confusingD. encouragingPassage 4It seems obvious that you don’t give away your product for free but this is exactly what indie rock group The Crimea did earlier this year. The band’s reasoning goes like this: more people will download the free album than would pay for it. Therefore more people will hear The Crimea’s music. These people will then pay money for concerts by the band and perhaps buy a T-shirt or other merchandise. If the band play regular concerts to crowds of 200 or 300 people they can make more money than they would from sales of a CD. There will always be some people who want something they can hold in their hands so they will release the CD into the shops too—but making money through sales of their music isn’t the top priority.The story illustrates the creative thinking going on in the music business in response to dramatic changes over the last few years in the way that people buy music. Sales of music digitally—to computer, phones and MP3 players rose to$2 billion in 2006—an increase of almost 100 percent on the previous year—yet overall record company sales are down. People are simply not buying CDs in record shops in anything like the numbers they used to.This trend looks set to continue so the big question for the music industry is whether they can successfully manage the move to being primarily a digital industry without profits falling to unacceptable levels.There are both positive and negative signs. On the plus side, more and more people are buying music on mobile phones, which allows people to make impulse purchases—they can buy a song as soon as they hear it. Research by the UK mobile operator 3 suggested that 75 percent of 16 to 24year olds wanted to buy a track they liked as soon as they heard it. With so much competition for people’s disposable income, a product that you can sell immediately is a big advantage.The bad news for record companies, however, is the amount of music that is downloaded illegally.Piracy—usually in the form of cheaply copied CD—has long been an issue for the music business but the Internet means music can be copied and distributed freely through file-sharing sites on a large scale than ever before.It is this situation that leads bands to start giving away their music for free and promises to make the next few years a very interesting time in the music business.76. What is unusual about the Crimea’s business plan?A. Their business was given away free on the Internet.B. They gave CDs away free in shops.C. They played free concerts.D. They charged more for their CDs77. The Crimea hope to make money________ .A. through CD salesB. by giving concerts and selling T-shirts and other merchandiseC. by selling merchandise on the InternetD. through sales of merchandise in shops78. The Crimea also released CDs for sale in shops because________ .A. people who attend their concerts need themB. they want to make extra moneyC. there are still people who prefer CDs to other formatsD. people who fail to attend their concerts need them79. What is true about sales of music over the last year?A. Overall, sales are up last year.B. Overall, sales are down last year.C. There is no change compared to previous sales.D. It is not mentioned in the passage.80. What effect has the Internet had on music piracy?A. It has made it easier to fight piracy.B. It has increased the number of pirate CDs available.C.

Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. Choose the correct answer and mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the center.Passage OneHow much living space does a person need? What happens when his space requirements are not adequately met? Sociologists and psychologists are conducting experiments on rats to try to determine the effect of overcrowded conditions on man. Recent studies have shown that the behavior of rats is greatly affected by space. If rats have adequate living space, they eat well, sleep well, and reproduce well. However, if their living conditions become too crowded, their behavior patterns and even their health perceptibly change. They cannot sleep or 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. Is this a natural law for human society as well? Is adequate space not only desirable, but also essential for human survival?51. This passage is mainly about ______.A) living space and behaviorB) population and living conditionsC) interesting experiments on ratsD) a natural law for human society52. What is the purpose of the experiments described in the passage?A) To determine how much living space a rat needs.B) To see what happens when rats live in a limited space.C) To know the likely effects of inadequate living space on human beings.D) To find out the relationship between population and living conditions.53. How would rats behave when their living conditions become too crowded?A) They eat a lot and become friendly to others.B) They sleep little and act quite peacefully.C) They eat little but sleep soundly.D) They become nervous and tend to be war-like.54. The passage suggests that overcrowded conditions ______.A) are directly related with populationB) may cause an increase in violenceC) may lead to high birth rateD) may bring about pollution problemsPassage TwoMany people hope that the whole world will one day speak a common language. Over the Years, people have made up new languages with this aim. At least six hundred languages have been developed in the search for a language which all human beings would be able to speak. The most famous one, Esperanto ( 世界语) , was the idea of Ludwig Zamenhof, a doctor in Warsaw. He published a book about his new language in 1887.To encourage people to learn the Language, he made it as simple as possible.Esperanto has never been accepted as an official world language, but it has been suggested as an auxiliary language. By 1950 it had been taught to one and a half million speakers, and it was spoken in six hundred schools. Today Esperanto is spoken by about eight million people, and more than one hundred newspapers and magazines in the language are published regularly throughout the world. Thousands of books have been written in Esperanto, including those translated from other languages. Today the need for a new auxiliary language like Esperanto seems less obvious. Throughout this century English has grown more and more important. It has become a second language for many millions of people. The fact that more are learning English shows that the use of English is still growing worldwide. No one would deny the usefulness of world language, but not many people think that Esperanto is likely to play such a role.55. Over the years, people have made up new languages in the hope that ______.A) all people will be able to speak a common languageB) people will learn a foreign language betterC) people can understand each other betterD) people will be able to speak several languages56. Zamenhof made the language as simple as possible because ______.A) he wanted people to learn it quicklyB) he hoped more and more people would be willing to learn itC) he wanted everyone to speak it without any difficultyD) he hoped it would be accepted as an official world language57. Which of the following is NOT true of English?A) It is widely taught in schools.B) It has become a second language for many millions of people.C) Many books have been written in English.D) It is less popular than Esperanto.58. What is the best title of the passage?A) The language made by one man.B) A talk about the world language.C) English as a second language for everyone.D) Esperanto—a better language than English.Passage ThreeAfter the violent earthquake that shook Los Angeles in 1994, earthquake scientists had news to report: The damage and death toll could have been much worse.More than 60 people died in this earthquake. By comparison, an earthquake of similar intensity that shook America in 1988 claimed 25 ,000 victims.Injuries and deaths were relatively less in Los Angeles because the quake occurred at 4:31 a. m. on a holiday, when traffic was light on the city’s highways. In addition, changes made to the construction codes in Los Angeles during the last 20 years have strengthened the city ’ s buildings and highways, making them more resistant to quakes.Despite the good news, civil engineers aren’t resting on their successes. Pinned to their drawing boards are blueprints for improved quake - resistant buildings. The new designs should offer even greater security to cities where earthquakes often take place.In the past, making structures quake - resistant meant firm yet flexible materials, such as steel and wood, that bend without breaking. Later, people tried to lift a building off its foundation, and insert rubber and steel between the building and its foundation to reduce the impact of ground vibrations. The most recent designs give buildings brains as well as concrete and steel supports. Called smart buildings, the structures respond like living organisms to an earthquake’s vibrations. When the ground shakes an d the building tips forward, the computer would force the building to shift in the opposite direction.The new smart structures could be very expensive to build. However, they would save many lives and would be less likely to be damaged during earthquakes.59. One reason why the loss of lives in the Los Angeles earthquake was comparatively low was that ______.A) new computers had been installed in the buildingsB) it occurred in the residential areas rather than on the highwaysC) large numbers of Los Angeles residents had gone for a holidayD) improvements had been made in the construction of buildings and highways60. The function of the computer mentioned in the passage is to ______.A) counterbalance an earthquake’s action on the buildingB) predict the coming of an earthquake with accuracyC) help strengthen the foundation of the buildingD) measure the impact of an earthquake’ s vibrations61. It can be inferred from the passage that in minimizing the damage caused by earthquakes attention should be focused on ______.A) the increasing use of rubber and steel in capital constructionB) the development of flexible building materialsC) the reduction of the impact of ground vibrationsD) early forecasts of earthquakes62. The main purpose of this passage is mostly to______.A) compare the consequences of the earthquakes that occurred in the U. S.B) encourage civil engineers to make extensive use of computersC) outline the history of the development of quake - resistant building materialsD) report new developments in constructing quake - resistant buildingSection BDirections; Match the Chinese sentences in the left column with the English in the right column, markPart IV Translation Section ADirections: Put the following sentences into Chinese.

Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. Choose the correct answer and mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the center.Passage OneHow much living space does a person need? What happens when his space requirements are not adequately met? Sociologists and psychologists are conducting experiments on rats to try to determine the effect of overcrowded conditions on man. Recent studies have shown that the behavior of rats is greatly affected by space.If rats have adequate living space, they eat well, sleep well, and reproduce well. However, if their living conditions become too crowded, their behavior patterns and even their health perceptibly change. They cannot sleep or 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. Is this a natural law for human society as well? Is adequate space not only desirable, but also essential for human survival?51、 This passage is mainly about ______.A. living space and behaviorB. population and living conditionsC. interesting experiments on ratsD. a natural law for human society52、 What is the purpose of the experiments described in the passage? ______A. To determine how much living space a rat needs.B. To see what happens when rats live in a limited space.C. To know the likely effects of inadequate living space on human beings.D. To find out the relationship between population and living conditions.53、 How would rats behave when their living conditions become too crowded? ______A. They eat a lot and become friendly to others.B. They sleep little and act quite peacefully.C. They eat little but sleep soundly.D. They become nervous and tend to be war-like.54、 The passage suggests that overcrowded conditions ______.A. are directly related with populationB. may cause an increase in violenceC. may lead to high birth rateD. may bring about pollution problemsPassage TwoMany people hope that the whole world will one day speak a common language. Over the Years, people have made up new languages with this aim. At least six hundred languages have been developed in the search for a language which all human beings would be able to speak. The most famous one, Esperanto(世界语) ,was the idea of Ludwig Zamenhof, a doctor in Warsaw. He published a book about his new language in 1887.To encourage people to learn the Language, he made it as simple as possible. Esperanto has never been accepted as an official world language, but it has been suggested as an auxiliary language. By 1950 it had been taught to one and a half million speakers, and it was spoken in six hundred schools. Today Esperanto is spoken by about eight million people, and more than one hundred newspapers and magazines in the language are published regularly throughout the world. Thousands of books have been written in Esperanto, including those translated from other languages.Today the need for a new auxiliary language like Esperanto seems less obvious.Throughout this century English has grown more and more important. It has become a second language for many millions of people. The fact that more are learning English shows that the use of English is still growing worldwide. No one would deny the usefulness of world language, but not many people think that Esperanto is likely to play such a role.55、 Over the years, people have made up new languages in the hope that ______.A. all people will be able to speak a common languageB. people will learn a foreign language betterC. people can understand each other betterD. people will be able to speak several languages56、 Zamenhof made the language as simple as possible because ______.A. he wanted people to learn it quicklyB. he hoped more and more people would be willing to learn itC. he wanted everyone to speak it without any difficultyD. he hoped it would be accepted as an official world language57、 Which of the following is NOT true of English? ______A. It is widely taught in schools.B. It has become a second language for many millions of people.C. Many books have been written in English.D. It is less popular than Esperanto.58、 What is the best title of the passage? ______A. The language made by one man.B. A talk about the world language.C. English as a second language for everyone.D. Esperanto—a better language than English.Passage ThreeAfter the violent earthquake that shook Los Angeles in 1994, earthquake scientists had news to report: The damage and death toll could have been much worse.More than 60 people died in this earthquake. By comparison, an earthquake of similar intensity that shook America in 1988 claimed 25,000 victims.Injuries and deaths were relatively less in Los Angeles because the quake occurred at 4:31 a.m. on a holiday, when traffic was light on the city's highways. In addition, changes made to the construction codes in Los Angeles during the last 20 years have strengthened the city's buildings and highways, making them more resistant to quakes.Despite the good news, civil engineers aren't resting on their successes. Pinned to their drawing boards are blueprints for improved quake-resistant buildings. The new designs should offer even greater security to cities where earthquakes often take place.In the past, making structures quake-resistant meant firm yet flexible materials, such as steel and wood, that bend without breaking. Later, people tried to lift a building off its foundation, and insert rubber and steel between the building and its foundation to reduce the impact of ground vibrations. The most recent designs give buildings brains as well as concrete and steel supports. Called smart buildings, the structures respond like living organisms to an earthquake's vibrations. When the ground shakes and the building tips forward, the computer would force the building to shift in the opposite direction.The new smart structures could be very expensive to build. However, they would save many lives and would be less likely to be damaged during earthquakes.59、 One reason why the loss of lives in the Los Angeles earthquake was comparatively low was that ______.A. new computers had been installed in the buildingsB. it occurred in the residential areas rather than on the highwaysC. large numbers of Los Angeles residents had gone for a holidayD. improvements had been made in the construction of buildings and highways60、 The function of the computer mentioned in the passage is to ______.A. counterbalance an earthquake's action on the buildingB. predict the coming of an earthquake with accuracyC. help strengthen the foundation of the buildingD. measure the impact of an earthquake's vibrations61、 It can be inferred from the passage that in minimizing the damage caused by earthquakes attention should be focused on ______.A. the increasing use of rubber and steel in capital constructionB. the development of flexible building materialsC. the reduction of the impact of ground vibrationsD. early forecasts of earthquakes62、 The main purpose of this passage is mostly to ______.A. compare the consequences of the earthquakes that occurred in the U.S.B. encourage civil engineers to make extensive use of computersC. outline the history of the development of quake-resistant building materialsD. report new developments in constructing quake-resistant building Section BDirections: Match the Chinese sentences in the left column with the English in the right column, mark the corresponding letter on the Answer with a single line through the centre.A. The desire to keep the respect of a good name propelled me to become the first in our family to go to college.B. Shielding children from the knowledge that they have failed is anything but beneficial to their development.C. We must waken people to the importance of environmental protection.
