| 第3题：Directions: In this part there is a short passage with five questions or incomplete statements.Read the passage carefully.Then answer the questions or complete the statements in less than 10 words. Have you ever been asked to take a polygraph test for a job?A polygraph,also called a lie detector,is a device that is used to find out if someone is telling a lie.It is based on the belief that lying causes certain physical reactions.These reactions,which include a change in blood pressure and pulse rate,are measured by the polygraph. Lie detector tests are often used in court and in the workplace.However,a law th at went effect in December 1988 limits the ways that employers can use these tests.Employers can no longer use them to screen(审查) people who are applying for jobs.The only exception is for those who want government jobs as security guards or drug handlers.Also,managers can no longer ask workers to take such tests unless there is reasonable suspicion that the worker has stolen or damaged property.This will curb tests for suspected offenses,such as drug use or sexual harassm ent,and for workers who were merely in the area of a theft.Bosses who request lie detector tests will have to tell workers why they are suspected of an offense. Also,they may not ask questions that degrade workers,such as questions about their sex lives. In any case,according to the new law,the test is now voluntary:You can't be fired for refusing to take it.If you have been forced to take a polygraph test,or if you are not being given a promotion because you have refused to take the test, you can sue the company or file a complaint with the Department of Labor.The Department of Labor can fine employers up to $10,000. Questions: 71. What is the passage mainly about? 72. How does the polygraph work? 73. The law of December,1988 prohibits employers from examing people who apply for jobs except ____ 74. Nowadays the bosses can ask the workers to take the polygraph tests only under the condition that____ 75. Under the new law,if a boss forces his worker to take a polygraph test,w hat punishment will he get? |

| 第6、7、8、9、10题：About 50 years ago the idea of disabled people doing sports was never heard of.But when the annual games for the disabled were started at Stroke Mandeville,England in 1948 by Sir Ludwig Guttmann,the situation began to change.Sir Ludwig Guttmann,who had been driven to England in 1939 from Nazi Germany,had been asked by the British government to set up an injuries centre at stoke Mandeville Hospital near London.His ideas about treating injuries included sports for the disabled. In the first games just two teams of injured soldiers took part.The next year,1949,five teams took part.From those beginnings things developed fast.Teams now come from abroad to Stoke Mandeville every year.In 1960 the first Olympics for the Disabled were held in Rome.Now,every four years the Olympic Games for the Disabled are held,if possible,in the same place as the normal Olympic Games，although they are organized separately.In other years Games for the Disabled are still held at Stoke Mandeville.In the 1984 wheelchair Olympic Games,1604 wheelchair athletes from about 40 countries took part.Unfortunately,they were held at Stoke Mandeville and not in Los Angeles,along with the other Olympics. The Games have been a great success in promoting international friendship and understanding,and in proving that being disabled does not mean you can't enjoy sports.One small source of disappointment for those who organize and take part in the games,however,has been the unwillingness of the International Olympic Committee to include the disabled events at the Olympic Games for the ablebodied.Perhaps a few more years are still needed to convince those fortunate enough not to be disabled that their disabled fellow athletes should not be excluded. 31. The first games for the disabled were held____after Sir Ludwing Guttmann arrived in England. A.50 years B.21 years C.9 years D.4 years 32. Beside Stoke Mandeville,surely the games for the disabled were once held in____. A.New York B.London C.Rome D.Los Angeles 33. In paragraph 2,the word “athlete” means____. A.people who support the games B.people who watch the games C.people who organize the games D.people who compete in the games 34. Which of the following statements is NOT true? A.Sir Ludwig Guttmann is an early organizer of the games for the disabled. B.Sir Ludwig Guttmann is an injured soldier. C.Sir Ludwig Guttmann is from Germany. D.Sir Ludwig Guttmann is welcomed by the British. 35. From the passage we may conclude that writer is____. A.one of the organizers of the games for the disabled B.a disabled who once took part in the games C.against holding the games for the disabled D.in favor of holding the game for the disabled |

| 第11、12、13、14、15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. C.Tonadoes are larger than whirlwinds. D.Only tornadoes are funnelshaped. 32. Why do tornadoes appear to be dark? A.They occur only at night. B.They are funnel-shaped. C.They pick up debris from the ground. D.They are water-laden. 33. According to the passage,which of the following behaviors is frequently characteristic of funnel clouds? A.Descending from different cloud bases. B.Occurring in isolated areas. C.Lasting a long time. D.Occurring in groups. 34. According to the passage,some tornadoes take people unaware because they__. A.produce a sound similar to thunder. B.cannot be seen until it is too late. C.look so much like other clouds. D.carry so many large pieces of debris. 35. The author refers to straw embeded in fence posts in order to show __. A.where tornadoes occur. B.who makes reports about tornadoes. C.when tornadoes take form. D.how tornadoes affect physical objects. |
