填空题One of the questions coming into focus as we face growing scarcity of resources in the world is how to divide limited resources among countries. In the international development com 66 , the coronal wisdom has been 67 the billion people living in poor countries could never expect to r 68 the standard of living that most of the people in North America e 69 , simply because the world does not contain enough iron ore, protein, petroleum, and so on. At the same time, we in the United States have continued to pursue super-affluence as though there were no limits 70 how much we could consume. We m 71 only 6 percent of the world's people; yet we consume one third of the world's resources. As long as the resources we consumed each year came primarily from w 72 our own boundaries, this was largely an internal matter. But as our resources come more and more from the outside world, we will no longer be able to think in 73 of "our" resources and "their" resources, but only of c 74 resources. As Americans consume such a(n) 75 (proportion) share of the world's resources, we have to question whether or not we can continue our pursuit of super-affluence in a world of 76 (scarce). We are now reaching the point at 77 we must carefully examine the presumed 1 78 between our level of well-being and the level of material goods consumed. If you have only one crust of bread and get another crust of bread, your well-being is greatly 79 (enhance). But if you have a loaf of bread, then an additional crust of bread doesn't make d 80 In the eyes of most of the world today, Americans have their loaf of bread and are asking for still mole. The prospect of a scarcity of, and competition in, the world's resources requires that we re-examine the way in which we relate to the rest of the world.

填空题Almost every new innovation goes through there phases. When initially introducing into the market, the process of adoption is slow. The early 1 models are expensive and hard to use, and perhaps even unsafe. The economic impact is relatively great. 2 The other phase is the explosive one, where the innovation is rapidly 3 adopted by a large number of people. It gets cheaper and easier to use and becomes something familiar. And then in the third stage, diffusion (传播,扩 散) of the innovation slows down again, as if it permeates out across the 4 economy. During the third phase, the whole new industries spring up to produce 5 the new product or innovation, and to service it. For example, during the 1920s, there is a dramatic acceleration in auto production, from 1.9 million in 6 1920 to 4.5 million in 1929. This boom was accompanied with all sorts of 7 other essential activities necessary for an auto-based nation: Roads had to be built for the cars to run on; refineries and oil wells, to provide the gasoline; and garages, to repair it. Historically, the same pattern 8 is repeated again and again with innovations. The construction of the electrical system requested an enormous early investment in generation and 9 distribution capacity. The introduction of the radio was followed by a buying spree (无节制的狂热行为) by Americans what quickly brought radios into 10 almost half of all households by 1930, up from nearly none in 1924.

Education Issues Sara I'm a teacher of French and Spanish, and I think foreign languages are one of the areas where it's good to be creative.

For questions 56 - 60, mark Y (for Yes) if the statement agrees with the information given in the passage; N (for No) if the statement contradicts the information given in the passage; NG (for Not Given) if the information is not given in the passage. Questions 56- 60 are based on the following passage. Many college students in the United States use their summer break to earn money in a temporary job. But more and more are working as summer interns. Some internship programs accept students in high school. Internships are usually unpaid, and the work might not always be the most exciting. But they offer a chance to gain experience in business, public service or some other area of interest. They can also be a chance to get to know a possible future employer. More importantly, internships can help students make sure their area of study is a good choice. For most organizations, interns mean extra workers for little or no cost. Some interns are promised a full-time job once they finish their studies. Yet some students have no choice but to get a paying job during the summer. They have a real financial need. Interns provide free labor, but internship programs can involve costs for travel, housing and meals. Businesses might require interns to receive college credit for their experience. These businesses are concerned about labor laws that say workers must receive something in return for their work. So, if not money, then credits. Many colleges and universities resist such requirements. They say students should earn credit only for school experience. Some other schools provide the credits but charge students for them. So, for a student from a poor family, an unpaid internship just may not be possible. Economic realities like this sometimes lead to criticism of internship programs. But some colleges and universities are offering help for students who want to be interns. Some provide scholarships to help pay for housing and meals, but they do not always give academic credits. Brandeis University near Boston, Massachusetts, offers a summer internship class. Students pay for one college credit. They must write an essay or keep a journal of their internship. Johns Hopkins University in Baltimore, Maryland, is considering a similar one-credit summer class. Associate Dean John Bader says the students would work with a professor, but would not have to pay any money. Statements:

填空题The London to Brighton Car Run The first London to Brighton run took place on November 14th, 1896.

Since then, this annual run has become one of the most popular events on the British motoring calendar, w 4 crowds of over one million lining the route. Only the v 5 oldest cars, constructed during the ten years between 1895 and 1905, are allowed to take part in it. Lovingly polished by their drivers, who are dressed in the clothing of the period, the cars leave Hyde Park in London at 7:30 am and ar 6 , hopefully, in Brighton some three hours later.

填空题For centuries man dreamed of achieving vertical flight. In 400 A.D., Chinese children played with a fan-like toy that spun upwards and fell back to earth as rotation ceased. Leonardo da Vinci conceived the first mechanical apparatus, called a "Helix", which could carry a man straight up, but this was only a design and was never tested. The ancient dream was finally realized in 1940 when a Russian immigrant, an aeronautical engineer, piloted a strange-looking craft of steel tubing with a rotating fan on top. It rose awkwardly and vertically into the air from a standing start, hovered a few feet above the ground, went sideways and backwards, and then settled back to earth. That vehicle was called a helicopter. Imaginations were fired. Men dreamed of commuting to work in their own personal helicopter. Every man would have one in his backyard. People anticipated that vertical flight transports would carry millions of passengers as do the airliners of today. Such fantastic expectations were not fulfilled. The helicopter has now become an extremely versatile machine. It excels in military missions, carrying troops, guns and strategic instruments where other aircraft cannot go. Corporations use them as airborne offices, many metropolitan areas use them in police work, construction and logging companies employ them in various advantageous ways, engineers use them for site selection and surveying, and oil companies use them as the best way to make offshore and remote work stations accessible to crews and supplies. Any urgent mission to a hard-to-get-to place is a likely task for a helicopter. Among their other multitude of uses, they deliver people across town, fly to and from airports, assist in rescue work, and aid in the search for missing or wanted persons.

填空题Although French, German, American and British pioneers have all been credited with the invention of cinema, the British and the Germans played a relatively small role in its worldwide exploitation. It was above all the French, followed closely by the Americans, who were the most passionate exporters of the new invention, helping to start cinema in China, Japan, Latin America and Russia. In terms of artistic development it was again the French and the Americans who took the lead, though in the years before the First World War, Italy, Denmark and Russia also played a part. In the end it was the United States that was to become, and remain, the largest single market for films. By protecting their own market and pursuing a vigorous export policy, the Americans achieved a dominant position on the world market by the start of the First World War. The centre of film-making had moved westwards, to Hollywood, and it was films from these new Hollywood studios that flooded onto the world's film markets in the years after the First World War, and have done so ever since. Faced with total Hollywood domination, few film industries proved competitive. The Italian industry, which had pioneered the feature film with spectacular films like Quo Vadis? (1913) and Cabiria (1914), almost collapsed. In Scandinavia, the Swedish cinema had a brief period of glory, notably with powerful epic films and comedies. Even the French cinema found itself in a difficult position. In Europe, only Germany proved industrially capable, while in the new Soviet Union and in Japan, the development of the cinema took place in conditions of commercial isolation. Hollywood took the lead artistically as well as industrially. Hollywood films appealed because they had better-constructed narratives, their special effects were more impressive, and the star system added a new dimension to screen acting. If Hollywood did not have enough of its own resources, it had a great deal of money to buy up artists and technical innovations from Europe to ensure its continued dominance over present or future competition. From early cinema, it was only American slapstick comedy that successfully developed in both short and feature format. However, during this "Silent Film" era, animation, comedy, serials and dramatic features continued to thrive, along with factual films or documentaries, which acquired an increasing distinctiveness as the period progressed. It was also at this time that the avant-garde film first achieved commercial success, this time thanks almost exclusively to the French and the occasional German film. Of the countries which developed and maintained distinctive national cinemas in the silent period, the most important were France, Germany and the Soviet Union. Of these, the French displayed the most continuity, in spite of the war and post-war economic uncertainties. The German cinema, relatively insignificant in the pre-war years, exploded on to the world scene after 1919. Yet even they were both overshadowed by the Soviets after the 1917 Revolution. They turned their back on the past, leaving the style of the pre-war Russian cinema to the Emigres who fled westwards to escape the Revolution. The other countries whose cinemas changed dramatically are: Britain, which had an interesting but undistinguished history in the silent period; Italy, which had a brief moment of international fame just before the war; the Scandinavian countries, particularly Denmark, which played a role in the development of silent cinema quite out of proportion to their small population; and Japan, where a cinema developed based primarily on traditional theatrical and, to a lesser extent, other art forms and only gradually adapted to western influence.
