| 第1、2、3、4、5题：Joblessness is far more than an economic misfortune.It can be a psychological disaster for the unemployed and their families.It can cause illness,divide families and create a downward spiral of feelings of worthlessness and lack of selfesteem.According to research done by M. Harvery Brenner,associate professor of health at Johns Hopkins University,every 1% increase in the unemployment rate translates into 37,000 deaths over the next 6 years,including over 20,000 deaths from heart attcks,900 suicides and nearly 500 deaths from cirrhosis of the liver.In addition,Brenner estimates that 7,500 unemployed or their families will be admitted to prison after committing a crime or to a mental hospital.“The impact goes well beyond the individual who loses a job,”said Brenner.“stress caused by econo mic factors affects our national life at every level.” Men who have been socialized as the family breadwinner are especially hard hit by unemployment.They suffer greater depression and anxiety and have a higher possibility of psychotic behavior than men who are employed.“Nine months seems to be a crucial point when hope and patience give out,”said a leading psychologist. After that,“illness,suicide,alcoholism,divorce,and even crime grow at epidemic rate.” Left without a job,many workers feel they have nothing to look forward to.They miss their coworkers and the routine of going to work.For many,the sense of hopelessness grows worse every time they are rejected for a new job.When this happens often enough,the rejection unemployed workers feel may be exacerbated if some friends and neighbors avoid them as if they had a contagious disease. 21.

| 第6、7、8、9、10题：T[ornadoes,whirlwinds,and watersprouts are rotating funnel cloud air masses of small diameter.They are differentiated by the intensity of their rotation and by the surfaces that they traverse.Though tornadoes and whirlwinds both travel over land masses,whirlwinds are atmospheric systems smaller than tornadoes.Watersprouts are tornadoes that form or pass over a water surface.A tornado is a powerful vortex or “twister” whose rotational speeds are estimated to be near 300 miles per hour.The first visible indication of tornado development is usually a funnel cloud.As this funnel dips earthward,it becomes darker because of the debris that is forced into its intensifying vortex.Some tornadoes give no visible warning until their destruction strikes the unsuspecting victim.Tornadoes often occur in groups,and several twisters sometimes descend from the same cloud base.The forward speed of a tornado is normally 30 to 40 miles per hour.In the short time that it takes to pass,a tornado can cause fantastic destruction.There have been cases reported in which blades of straw were embeded in fence posts. 31. How are tornadoes distinguished from whirlwinds? A.Whirlwinds rotate in a different direction than tornadoes do. B.Tonadoes travel over land and whirlwinds over water.
