Poor conditions in these cities, such as lack of housing, inadequate sanitation (卫生) and lack of employment, bring about an increase in poverty, disease and crime.The over-population of towns is mainly caused by the drift of large numbers of people from the rural areas. These people have become dissatisfied with the traditional life of farming, and have come to the towns hoping for better work and pay.One possible solution to the problem would be to impose registration on town residents. Only officially registered residents would be allowed to live in the towns and the urban population would thus be limited. In practice, however, registration would be very difficult to enforce (推行)；it would cause a great deal of resentment (不满), which would ultimately lead to violence.The only long-term solution is to make life in the rural areas more attractive, which would encourage people to stay there. This could be achieved by providing encouragement for people to go and work in the villages. Facilities in the rural areas, such as transport, health and education services should be improved. Education should include training in improved methods of farming and other rural industries, so as to develop a more positive attitude towards rural life. The improvement of life in the villages is very important, because the towns themselves cannotbe developed without the simultaneous or previous development of the rural area.36. What does the word “urban” (Line 2, Para. 3) mean?A、Of the cityB、Out of workC、In a bad conditionD、Of enormous size37. Large numbers of farmers have poured into towns because___________________.A、they can hardly support their families on farmsB、they are unhappy with their life in the countryC、the rural areas are too crowded with peopleD、they hope to have their own business38. In the author’s view, solving the cities’ problem of overcrowding by strict registrations is____________.A、practicalB、possibleC、not realisticD、not sufficient39. According to the writer, the problem with crowded cities will be solved if _______________.A、traditional methods of farming are well keptB、conditions in rural areas are much improvedC、the government can provide more jobsD、violence could be controlled in cities40. Which factor is most important for people to be attracted to live in the country?A、Their expectationsB、Their interests.C、Their income.D、Their attitude.Task 2Online services are managed by a host system that maintains a base of information available to satellite users. Users of so-called “dumb” terminals (i.e., those without processing capability) simply access the information base via programs stored on the system. Personal computer (PC) users typically access the host through a modem (调制解调器). A PC software program serves as an interface (接口) between the server and PC, allowing the user to operate through the online system and select different databases using a keyboard or a mouse.National and regional online systems usually have local telephone umbers that PC modems can call to access either a local information base or an indirect long-distance connection, thus reducing long-distance telephone fees. Some online systems allow users to copy large volumes of information onto a local memory storage device, which also reduces the time the user is connected to the online system.Besides offering a great number of different information bases, ranging from full-text journal libraries to reports of missing children, online services allow users to, for example, reserve airline tickets, buy stocks, purchase goods, and communicate with other users. In exchange for the service, users usually pay a monthly membership fee. They may also pay to connect to various databases on the service or to download information.41. Online services work by providing users with ________________.A、a base of informationB、dumb terminalsC、a host systemD、a satellite42. How can the users of terminals without processing capability acquire the necessary information?A、They can simply use a keyboard or a mouse.B、They should use a modem to maintain the host system.C、They should connect their computer to a satellite system.D、They can access its base through the programs on the system.43. If you copy the online information onto your PC device, you will _____________.A、save the time of connecting to the online systemB、reduce the risk of losing informationC、pay just local telephone chargesD、get local information only44. If you want to read full-text information online, you usually have to ______________.A、seek for a large amount of informationB、be connected to various databasesC、be introduced by the local libraryD、pay a monthly membership fee45. The passage is mainly about __________________.A、the payment for online servicesB、the functions of online servicesC、the development of online servicesD、the relation between online services and the usersTask 3Over the past month the Personnel Office has received numerous calls about the approval process for using the new “flex-time” (flexible-time) working schedule.

职称英语等级理工类(A级)试题考试试题答案及题解4第二篇A Phone That Knows You’re BusyIt’s a modern problem：you’re too busy to be disturbed by incessant(连续不断的)phone calls so you turn your cellphone off .But if you don’t remember to turn it back on when you’re less busy．you could miss some important calls if only the phone knew when it was wise to interrupt you，you wouldn’t have to turn it off at all. Instead，it could let calls through when you are not too busyA bunch of behavior sensors(传感器)and a clever piece of software could do just that，by analyzing your behavior to determine if it’s a good time to interrupt you．If built into a phone，the system may decide you’re too busy and ask the caller to leave a message or ring back later．James Fogarty and Scott Hudson at Camegie Mellon University in Pennsylvania based their system oil tiny microphones，cameras and touch sensors that reveal body language and activity．First they had to study different behaviors to find out which ones stongly predict whether your mind is interrupted.The potential“busyness”signals they focused on included whether the office doors were left open or closed，the time of day，if other people were with the person in question，how close they were to each other, and whether or not the computer was in use．The sensors monitored these and many other factors while four subjects were at work . At random intervals，the subjects rated how interruptible they were on a scale ranging from“highly interruptible’’to“highly not—interruptible” . Their ratin gs were then correlated with the various behaviors . “It is a shotgun(随意的)approach：we used all the indicators we could think of and then let statistics find out which wereimportant，” says Hudson.The model showed that using the keyboard，and talking on a landline or to someone else in the office correlated most strongly with how interruptible the subjects judged themselves to be．Interestingly，the computer was actually better than people at predicting when someone was too busy to be interrupted . The computer got it right 82 per cent of the time，humans 77 per cent．Fogarty speculates that this might be because people doing the interrupting are inevitably biased towards delivering their message，whereas computers don’t care．The first application for Hudson and Fogarty’s system is likely to be in an instant messaging system，followed by office phones and cellphones．“There is no technological roadblock(障碍) to it being deployed in a couple of years，” says Hudson36 A big problem facing people today is thatA they must tolerate phone disturbances or miss important calls．B they must turn off their phones to keep their homes quiet．C they have to switch from a desktop phone to a cellphone．D they are too busy to make phone calls．37 The behavior sensor and software system built in a phoneA could help store messages．B could send messages instantlyC could tell when it is wise to interrupt you．D could identify important phone calls．38 Scientists at Carnegie Menon University tried to find outA why office doors were often 1eft open．B when it was a good time to turn off the computer．C what questions office workers were bothered with．D which behaviors could tell whether a person was busy39 During the experiment，the subjects were askedA to control the sensors and the camera．B to rate the degrees to which they could be interrupted．C to compare their behaviors with others’.D to analyze all the indicators of interruption．40 The computer performed better than people in the study becauseA the computer worked harder．B the computer was not busyC people tended to be biased．D people were not good at statistics．。
