Read the passage below and think of the word which best fits each blank. Use only one word in each blank. Remember to write the answers on the Answer Sheet. In the 1960s and 1970s attention began to be paid to women's liberation, and a serious attempt was made by women to get equal fights and treatment. The story has u {{U}}(76) {{/U}} been the same. When a woman looks for work, the first question she is asked is, "Can you type?" No consideration is given to the woman's mind of sc {{U}}(77) {{/U}} of qualifications. Women have been thought of only as office workers in government and business, but not as officers; as nurses and teachers, but not as doctors and lawyers. People had a picture in their minds of women happily working in their homes and not wanting to c {{U}}(78) {{/U}}. The result has been that in most c {{U}}(79) {{/U}} they have not been allowed to change, even if they want to. But slowly the prejudice a {{U}}(80) {{/U}} women is weakening and the idea of liberation is becoming stronger. Women are taking more and more important jobs in business, government, and the arts and many times are not waiting for men to lead. "Women's lib" has in fact become one of the most important m {{U}}(81) {{/U}} in the United States and Canada, and i {{U}}(82) {{/U}}, the world. Women get together in small groups for "consciousness raising" meetings, to bring to one another their own experiences as second-class human beings, in their homes and marriages as well as at work and in school. This has led to m {{U}}(83) {{/U}} discussion about ma {{U}}(84) {{/U}} and family life, pa {{U}}(85) {{/U}} in regard to what a woman's role and duties should be. The result has been that many more women are not o {{U}}(86) {{/U}} going to work but are having their own careers, their own friends, and their own interests, quite separate from t {{U}}(87) {{/U}} of their husbands. At the same time many husbands have accepted the fact that they th {{U}}(88) {{/U}} will have to play a different family role to help more with housework and with the children and to re {{U}}(89) {{/U}} their wives' rights and wishes. In s {{U}}(90) {{/U}}, women axe no longer accepting their positions as "prisoners" in their own homes, but are fighting to gain acceptance for themselves as full and important human beings.

填空题If you 1 2 smooth skin that glows with youth， the chances are that at some point you will have heard the exhortation to drink lots of water in order to 3 4 those evil toxins and keep your skin healthy. The exact amount people suggest varies. US – based advice 5 6 eight glasses a day，while in hotter climates people are advised to drink to more to 7 8 higher rates of sweating. But regardless of the exact volume of water suggested， the principle behind the advice remains the same --- taking extra water on board will keep your skin hydrated. In other words，water acts like a moisturizer， but from the inside out. This is such a common idea you might be surprised at the 9 10 to back up. You might expect there to be countless studies where people are11 12 two groups，one assigned to sip water all day， the other to drink a normal amount. Then the smoothness of the skin could be 13 14 a month or so later to establish whether sipping more lead to smoother skin. In fact such studies are rare， partly because water can’t be patented， so it is hard to find anyone to fund such research when there will be no new 15 16 or cosmetic to sell that could repay the costs. A review by the dermatologist Ronni Wolf at the Kaplan Medical Center in Israel found just one study looking at the effect of long-term water intake on the skin. But the results were 17 18. After four weeks， the group who drank mineral water showed a decrease in skin density， which some believe suggests the skin is retaining more moisture， while those who drank tap water showed an increase in skin density. But regardless of the type of water they drank， it made no difference to their 19 20 or to the smoothness of their skin.If you 21 22 smooth skin that glows with youth， the chances are that at some point you will have heard the exhortation to drink lots of water in order to 23 24 those evil toxins and keep your skin healthy.

填空题 In this section, you will hear a passage which will be read only once. You are required to fill in the blanks with the exact words you have just heard. Remember to write the answers on the answer sheet. There are two types of people in the world. Although they have {{U}}(21) {{/U}} degrees of health and wealth and other comforts of life, one becomes happy, and the other becomes {{U}}(22) {{/U}} . This arises from the different ways in which they consider things, persons, and events, and the resulting effects upon their minds. People who are to be happy fix their attention on the {{U}}(23) {{/U}} of things, the pleasant part of convention, the fine weather. They enjoy all the {{U}}(24) {{/U}} things. Those who are to be unhappy think and speak only of the {{U}}(25) {{/U}} things. Therefore, they are continually {{U}}(26) {{/U}} By their remarks, they sour the pleasure of society, offend many people, and make themselves {{U}}(27) {{/U}} everywhere. If this turn of mind were found in nature, such unhappy persons would be the more to be pitied. The tendency to criticize and to be disgusted is perhaps taken up originally {{U}}(28) {{/U}}. It grows into a habit, unknown to its possessors. The habit may be strong, but it may be cured when those who have it are convinced of its bad effects {{U}}(29) {{/U}}. I hope this little warning may be of service to them, and help them change this habit. Although in fact it is chiefly {{U}}(30) {{/U}}, it has serious consequences in life since it brings on deep sorrow and bad luck.

填空题The Independent on Sunday's (1) (industry) editor, David Bowen, collects air-line sick-bags. He started about 10 years ago when he used to travel (2) (extensive), but now the (3) (collect) has its own momentum. "I get sent several bags a month,"he says. "All my friends know that I collect these things, and they mention it to their friends. Then when any of them go on flights, they stare ahead of them for hours on end and (4) (soon) or later remember to pick one up. " He now has about 400 bags (5) (cover) about 200 airlines: they are displayed all over the walls of his house. He asks people to pick up a couple so that he has one to swap although, he says, "There is a slightly (6) (limit) market: my only real trading partner is a German who I met in Jordan eight years ago. " The bags, Bowen says, say a lot about the country of orison. Far Eastern ones tend to be lavish and exotic. Germanic ones are severely (7) (practice), eastern European ones reflect "the (8) ( short) of decent paper". Bowen is keen to hear from anyone who wants to join the bag (9) (barter) system. The hobby is not sufficiently developed to have monetary value (10) (attach) to it, but the swap system should work well. "Mind you, if someone came up with a pre-War bag, possibly from Imperial Airways, I would very seriously think about letting them have several pounds for it, maybe even an Air Afrique one, too. /

填空题Questions 72-78 are based on the following passage Most Americans spend far more of their leisure time with the mass media than in any other occupation. In addition, most of us hear, see or read some of the media (72) . Thus an extremely large number of our waking hours are spent with the mass media. Of all the media, television is clearly dominant, with newspaper a close second, (73) . Our exposure to all media is important, however, because all of them contribute materials for the construction of that world in our heads. For most people, (74) . In fact, in certain cases, and especially for certain purposes, the more one uses medium, the more likely one is to use others. There are various factors that can cause you to expose yourself to the media selectively, (75) . Some of that selective exposure is probably due to the psychological pressure you feel to avoid the discomfort caused by confrontations with facts and ideas contrary to your beliefs, attitudes, or behaviors. However, (76) , such as your age, education, and even the area in which you live and the people with whom you associate. Quite a different sort of factor that affects your media experiences is the social context of exposure; (77) ; whether you are at home, at the office, in theater, and so on. These contexts are as much as a potential part of the message you will form as film images on the screen or words on the page. In addition, that social context affects--both directly and indirectly--the media and the media content to which you become exposed. New friends or colleagues get you interested in different things. (78) , and you become exposed to it. Sentences: A. Some selective exposure is not due to the pressure for consistency but to other factors. B. While engaged in other activities. C. Other members of the family often select media content that you would not have selected. D. Exposure to media is important and people sometimes tend to use more media. E. At least as a source of news and other information. F. Whether you are alone or with others when you are exposed to medium. G. Avoiding much of the material with which you disagree. H. Increased use of one medium does not decrease the use of another.

填空题Management in Cyberspace Virtual reality is often used to mimic hazardous environments-cockpits of combat aircraft, burning oil rigs, the treasure-strewn caves of irritable dragons and so on. Until now, though, it has rarely been deployed to simulate that most hazardous environment of all-the office. But if Sandra Testani of the Franklin Institute in Philadelphia has her way, it will soon be possible to hone the black arts of office politics and corporate survival on a computer before you employ them against your colleagues in the real world. Or, from the boss's point of view, you will be able to practise your skills at "co-operating" in virtual "team-building" exercises. Dr. Testani's virtual world is called CIMBLE. The acronym stands for CADETT which in turn stands for Consortium for Advanced Education and Training Technologies Interactive Multi-user Business Learning Environment. The idea behind CIMBLE is to let people who are unable or unwilling to meet face to face practise collaborating with each other over a computer network. To do this, CIMBLE's software creates a virtual world for up to six participants. Each acts via an electronic representative known as an avatar. A participant sees the world (including the other players' avatars, which appear on screen as cartoon-like images of men and women) from his own avatar's point of view. Any other characters that the avatars might interact with are played by a moderator, who also acts as Big Brother, overseeing and monitoring the activities of the group and steering things in a suitable direction. The CIMBLE software allows the avatars to walk around and manipulate objects in the virtual world (opening doors, for example) at the click of a mouse. It also lets avatars (and hence the participants) talk to one another. Most conversations are assumed to be in the open, and can be heard by everybody. But true office Machiavellis will be pleased to learn that private chats are also possible, since the software can work out who is within earshot of whom, and will transmit sound only to those who should be able to hear it. So far, Dr. Testani and her colleagues have devised two exercises in their new electronic world. One simply brings the participants together around a virtual conference table and lets them chew over an agenda provided by the moderator. The second, however, is more sophisticated. The participants are deemed to be working for a civil-engineering firm, and are sent off to the proposed site of a new bridge to settle a dispute with local residents and officials. After a long car ride and a night in a hotel (all depicted in loving detail by CIMBLE's software), they meet the irate local and try to mollify them. A successful outcome, allowing the bridge to go ahead, is greeted by an onscreen display of virtual fireworks. Dr. Testani of Franklin Institute designed a software called CIMBLE which {{U}} {{U}} 1 {{/U}} {{/U}}CADETT Interactive Multi-user Business Learning Environment. This virtual world is used to mimic the office and has made it possible for {{U}} {{U}} 2 {{/U}} {{/U}}people to practise collaborating with others over a computer network. {{U}} {{U}} 3 {{/U}} {{/U}}is represented by an avatar, and their activities are monitored by a moderator. With this software, participants can talk to each other-as well as have {{U}} {{U}} 4 {{/U}} {{/U}}in the virtual world because the software will transmit sound only to people who should be able to hear it. Two exercises have been devised up till now. One allows the participants to think over an agenda, while the other requires them to {{U}} {{U}} 5 {{/U}} {{/U}}over the construction of a new bridge.
