more than five pounds of garbage. There is more garbage now than ever before and
most of it is made up of packages and cans in which we buy our food. The
traditional way of getting rid of solid wastes is quickly becoming inadequate.
Many cities are experimenting with newer ways of handing their growing piles of
garbage. One of these new ways is "recycling" (循环使用). Through
recycling usable materials are taken out of garbage and made into something
else. These usable parts of garbage are put through the cycle of going from a
raw material to a finished product again. In some cities a
machine called hydrapulper is being used to help recycle garbage. A hydrapuiper
is like a huge mixing machine. The garbage is dropped onto a conveyor belt that
feeds the machine. At the same time, water is pumped into the hydrapulper. With
a mixing action, the hydrapulper throws out the heavy metal objects that can
later be sold as waste metal, the rest of the garbage—paper, food, plastic,
rubber, glass, wood, leaves, and other items—fails apart. The waste is then
mixed with water and carried to another piece of equipment where glass, sand,
and small pieces of metal are thrown out. With the hydrapulper,
up to 95 percent of the original garbage is made again useful. The rest is
turned into furnace ash.

单选题Directions: After reading the following passage, you will find
5 questions or unfinished statements, numbered 36 to 40.For each question or
statement there are 4 choices marked A), B), C) and D). You should make the
correct choice and mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a
single line through the center. In Washington D.
C., 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue is a very special address. It is the address of the
White House, the home of the president of the United States.
Originally the White House was gray and was called the presidential Palace. It
was built from 1792 to 1800. At this time, the city of Washington itself was
being built. It was to be the nation's new capital city. George Washington, the
first president, and Pierre Charles L' Enfant, a French engineer, chose the
place for the new city. L' Enfant then planned the city. The president's home
was an important part of the plan. A contest was held to pick a
design for the president's home. An architect named James Hobart won. He
designed a large three-story house of gray stone. President
Washington never lived in the Presidential Palace. The first president to live
there was John Adams, the second president of the United States, and his wife
Mrs. Adams did not-really like her new house. In her letters, she often
complained about the cold. Fifty fireplaces were not enough to keep the house
warm! In 1812 the United States and Britain went to war. In
1814 the British invaded Washington. They burned many buildings, including the
Presidential Palace. After the war James Hoban, the original
architect, partially rebuilt the president's home. To cover the marks of the
fire, the building was painted white. Before long it became known as the White
House. The White House is one of the most popular tourist
attractions in the United States. Every year more than 1.5 million visitors go
through the five rooms that are open to the public.
单选题It was a happy combination of mountains, sea, and sun which made farming become the leading industry of the Southern Colonies (殖民地). The ocean made plentiful clouds, the clouds hitting the mountains made plentiful rain, the rain washing down the mountains for thousands of years had built a wide plain of fertile (肥沃的) soil. The rivers which had brought down the soil were steep near the mountains, but near the coast they were wide and rolling, deep enough for the small boats of the time to sail for miles. It was far enough south for the summers to be hot, so that the growing season lasted from six months in Maryland to about nine in South Carolin a. If you add these ideal farming conditions to the early discovery of a New World crop which was always in demand in the Old World, you will readily understand why the Southern Colonies became a farming group. Tobacco! This was the breath of life in Virginia, the oldest of the Southern Colonies. Men talked, thought, and bought in tobacco. It was a farming country, and other crops were also grown, but while the Southerner might have competition in the production of fruits and grains (wheat and rice and barley (大麦)), in tobacco he was a master. Tobacco! It was a magic word. Everything revolved around its production and it had a tremendous effect upon life in the South.
单选题The food we eat seems to have profound effects on our health. Although science has made enormous strides in making food more fit to eat, it has, at the same time, made many foods unfit to eat. Some research has shown that perhaps eighty percent of cancer is related to diet as well, especially cancer of the colon (结肠). Different cultures are more prone (倾向于) to contract certain illnesses because of the food that is characteristic in these cultures. That food is related to illness is not a new discovery. In 1945, government researchers realized that nitrates and nitrites, commonly used to preserve colour in meats, and other food additives, caused cancer. Yet, these carcinogenic additives remain in our food, and it becomes more difficult all the time to know which things on the packaging labels of processed food are helpful or harmful. The additives which we eat are not all so direct. Farmers often give penicillin to cows and chickens, and because of this, penicillin has been found in the milk of treated cows. Sometimes similar drugs are administered to animals not for medicinal purposes, but for financial reasons. The farmers are simply trying to fatten the animals in order to obtain a higher price on the market. Although the Food and Drug Administration (FDA. has tried repeatedly to control these procedures, the practices continue.

单选题Directions: This task is the same as Task 1. The 5
questions or unfinished statements are numbered 41 through 45. Human cloning (克隆) technology could be used to reverse
heart attacks. Scientists believe that they may be able to treat heart attack
victims by cloning their healthy heart cells and injecting them into the areas
of the heart that have been damaged, and other problems may be solved if human
cloning and its technology are not forbidden. ●With cloning,
infertile couples could have children. Current treatments for infertility, in
terms of percentages (百分比) , are not very successful. Couples go through
physically and emotionally painful procedures for a small chance of having
children. Many couples run out of time and money without successfully having
children. Human cloning could make it possible for many more infertile couples
to have children than ever before. ●We should be able to clone
the bone marrow (骨髓) for children and adults suffering from leukemia (白血病). This
is expected to be one of the first benefits to come from cloning
technology. We may learn how to switch cells on and off through
cloning and thus be able to cure cancer. ●Cloning technology
can be used to test for and perhaps cure gene-related diseases.
The above is just a few examples of what human cloning technology can do for
mankind. This new technology promises unprecedented advancement in medicine if
people will release their fears and let the benefits begin.

单选题All over Europe, and in North America, there're lakes and forests which are dead or (71) and the (72) is thought to be acid rain. What is acid rain? Mr. Justin Cook, a scientist, explains: "All fossil fuels, (矿物燃料),that (73) oil, coal and gas, contain sulphur. When these are burnt, for example (74) motor vehicles, they form sulphuric acid (硫酸)This (75) UP into the air, and soon it falls back to (76) , into lakes and (77) trees in forests." This can cause many local problems. 78 a result, lakes become acidic, fish disappear and trees are killed. The pollution is carried great distances by the wind, so sulphuric acid (79) in Britain can travel as far as Scandinavia (斯堪的纳维亚). Czech is one of the countries with the most acid rains and large areas of (80) consist only (81) dead trees. Is there (82) that can be done about acid rain? Mr. cook says: "The rain (83) of acid rain is (84) power stations to install filters that (85) the acid getting out into the air. Here in Britain, the only (86) that has been taken is that the chimneys are built (87) so that the pollution is more distributed." If the petrol used in motor vehicles (88) lead--free, then it Would be possible to filter exhaust fuses (废气) which are a (89) cause of pollution. But these filter mechanisms (机械装置)can not work (90) the leads is removed.
