The pain of change is all around us.Corporations are rushing to cut costs and downsize before year end.They want to take their lumps in 1991,in preparation for a stronger recovery in 1992.That means an unusual powerful wave of layoffs will sweep through the U.S. during the last quarter of 1991.Already,the drumbeat of bad news is growing louder.

第10、11、12、13、14题:By far the most common snake in Britain is the adder. In Scotland, in fact, there are no other snakes at all. The adder is also the only British snake with a poisonous bite. It can be found almost anywhere, but prefers sunny hillsides and rough open country, including high ground. In Ireland there are no snakes at all. Most people regard snake bites as a fatal misfortune, but not all bites are serious, and very few are fatal. Sometimes attempts at emergency treatment turn out to be more dangerous than the bite itself, with amateurs heroically, but mistakenly, trying do-it-yourself surgery and other unnecessary measures. All snakes have small teeth, so it follows that all snakes can bite, but only the bite of the adder presents any danger. British snakes are shy animals and are far more frightened of you than you could possibly be of them. The adder will attack only if it feels threatened, as can be happen if you take it by surprise and step on it accidentally or if you try to catch it or pick it up, which it dislikes intensely. If it hears you coming, it will normally get out of the way as quickly as it can, but adders cannot move very rapidly and may attack before moving if you are very close. The effect of a bite varies considerably. It depends upon several things, one of which is the body-weight of the person bitten. The bigger the person, the less harmful the bite is likely to be, which is why children suffer more seriously from snake bites than adults. A healthy person will also have better resistance against the poison. Very few people actually die from snake bites in Britain, and though these bites can make some people very ill, there are probably just as many cases of bites having little or no efforts, as there are of serious illness. 41. Adders are most likely to be found _______. A. in Scotland and nowhere else B. in wider parts of Britain C. in shady fields in England D. on uncultivated land throughout Britain 42. We are told that British snakes are ______. A. afraid of human beings B. poisonous including the adder c. dangerous except the adder D. friendly towards human beings 43. Which of the followings statements is Not true? A. The adder is the only poisonous snake in Britain. B. In Scotland there are no other snakes except the adder. C. Snake bites seem more dangerous than they actually are. D. People's attempts at emergency treatment are utterly unnecessary. 44. When will the adder not attack you? A. when you try to catch it B. when you are some distance away from it. C. when you happen to step on it. D. when you try to pick 45. If an adder hears you coming, it will usually _______. A. attack you immediately B. disappear very quickly C. want to frighten you D. move out of the way |

第15、16、17、18、19题:Television was not invented by any one person. Nor did it spring into being overnight. It evolved gradually, over a long period, from the ideas of many people -- each one building on the work of their predecessors. The process began in 1873, when it was accidentally discovered that the electrical resistance of the element selenium varied in proportion to the intensity of the light shining on it. Scientists quickly recognized that this provided a way of transforming light variations into electrical signals. Almost immediately a number of schemes were proposed for sending pictures by wire(it was, of course, before radio). One of the earliest of these schemes was patterned on the human eye. Suggested by G. R. Carey in 1875, it envisioned a mosaic of selenium calls on which the picture to be transmitted would be focused by a lens system. At the receiving end there would be a similarly arranged mosaic made up of electric lights. Each selenium cell would be connected by an individual wire to the similarly placed light in the receiving mosaic. Light falling on the selenium cell would reproduce the original picture, had the necessary amplifiers and the right kind of lights been availablr, this system would have workrd. But it also would have required an imoractical number of connecting wires. Carey recognized this and in a second proposed to “scan” the cells-transmitting the signal from each cell to its associated light, in turn, over a single wire. If this were done fast enough, the retentive power of the eye would cause the resultant image to be seen as a complete picture. 41. Which of the following is the best title for the passage? A. Television in the Electronic Era B. First Steps in the Invention of Television C. The Art of Television D. Harmful Effects of Television Viewing 42. In line 1, the word “being” could best be replaced by _____. A. place B. creature C. subsistence D. existence 43. An important discovery in earlyteleviosion was the electrical resistance of _____. A. mosaics B. the human eye C. lenses D. the element selenium 44. In 1875, Carey suggested that the human eye envisioned a mosaic of selenium cells on which the picture to be transmitted would be focused by ______. A. wire B. electric lights C. a lens system D. amplifiers 45. Following are the reasons why the first scheme for television was abandoned except _____. A. he lacks an effective assistant B. the necessary amplifers were unavailable C. the proper lights were unavailable D. the number of connecting wires is impractical |

第21、22、23、24、25题:Because Ireland is an island geographically near the mainland of the United Kingdom, English rulers have fought since the Middle-English Ages to retain political control over it. Attracted by the lush farmland, English and Scottish landowners settled there, and in time of famine or political unrest, the local workers suffered, while their landlords were cushioned by their wealth. The history of modern Ireland is, in fact, largely a story of antagonism and resentment between the Irish and their English and Scottish rulers. Since the 1920's, Ireland has been divided into two parts: Northern Ireland (Ulster) and the Republic of Ireland (Eire). The north is still part of the United Kingdom and is predominantly Protestant; the south is an independent republic and is mainly Catholic. The majority in Ulster accept this political compromise, but the active and mainly Catholic minority are fighting for union with the independent republic of Southern Ireland. The IRA, the Irish Republican Army, have mounted bombing campaigns in military and civil targets in Ulster and England. They have sent letter-bombs to public figures, they have slot fellow Irishmen who support the British or belong to opposing, and now equally militant Protestant groups. As a result of this, the British have stationed an army in Belfast, the IRA have been outlawed, and several of them have spent many years in prison or have died in support of their cause. Whether this level of violence and repression is justifiable, and whether the violence that could result from political change would be worthwhile are the controversial issues that divide everybody involved. 36. It suggested that the central problem is relationship between _______. A. Britain and Ireland B. Ulster and Eire C. Catholics and Protestants D. the Irish Republican Army and Ulster. 37. This outline suggests that the central problem is ________. A. many centuries old B. about three centuries old C. about 80 years old D. a few years old 38. The IRA is ________. A. part of the Ulster police force B. part of American army C. a group of militant priests D. a terrorist organization 39. Bomb attacks occur _______. A. only in England B. when public figures talk about Ireland C. only in Northern Ireland D. in England and Northern Ireland 40. The writer feels that the controversy is about ________. A. freedom B. political change C. the use of violence D. injustice |
