  • 阅读理解
         In the past, man did not have to think about protection of the environment. There were very few
    people on the earth, and natural resources seemed to be unlimited.
         Today things are different. The world has become too crowded. We are using up our natural
    resources too quickly, and at the same time we are polluting our environment with dangerous chemicals.
    If we continue to do this, human life on the earth will not survive.
         Everyone realizes today that if too many fish are taken from the sea, there will soon be none left. Yet,
    with modern fishing methods, more and more fish are caught. We know that if too many trees are cut
    down, forests will disappear and nothing will grow on land. Yet, we continue to use more powerful
    machines to cut down more and more trees.
         We realize that if rivers are polluted with waste products from factories, we will die. However, in
    most countries waste is still put into rivers, but there are few laws to stop this.
         We also know that if the population of the countries in the world is to rise at the present rate in a few
    years, there will not be enough food.
         What can we do to solve these problems?
         If we eat more vegetables and less meat, there will be more food available for everyone. Land that is
    used to grow crops can feed five times more people than land where animals are kept.
         Our natural resources will last longer if we learn to recycle them.
         The world population will not rise so quickly if people use modern methods of birth control.
         Finally, if all of us think about the problem, we will have a better and cleaner planet in the future.
    1. This passage mainly tells us about ______.
    A. the problems we are facing today about environment and the ways to solve them
    B. the unlimited natural resources in the world
    C. our rivers are being polluted by waste from factories
    D. the ways early man protected the environment
    2. Which of the following is NOT true?
    A. If we eat more vegetables, more food can be saved.
    B. In the past, there was no need for people to think about environmental protection.
    C. If we keep on cutting trees, forests will disappear.
    D. We shouldn’t take more and more fish out of the sea, or there will soon be no fish left.
    3. What is implied (暗示) in the passage?
    A. Man is cleverer than any other animal.
    B. Man will destroy himself if he doesn’t solve the problem.
    C. Modern fishing methods are helpful in our fishing industry.
    D. We should make more laws in order to survive.
    4. From the passage we can see that the world’s natural resources ______.
    A. will never be used up
    B. are being polluted
    C. are as plentiful as in the past
    D. are being used up very quickly  
  •      "Sesame Street" has been called "the longest street in the world." That is because the television
    program can be seen in so many parts of the world. That program became one of America's exports
    soon after it was shown in New York in 1969.
         In the United States more than six million children watch the program regularly. Although some people do not agree to some parts of the program, parents praise it highly.
         Tests have shown that children have learned much from watching "Sesame Street". The children who
    watch it five times a week learn more than those who watch it less. In the United States the program is
    shown at different hours during the week in order to increase the number of children who can watch it
    regularly.
         The programs use songs, stories, jokes and pictures to give children a basic understanding of
    numbers, letters and human relationships.
         Why has "Sesame Street" been so much more successful than other children's shows? Many reasons
    have been suggested, such as the educational theories of its producers, the support from both the
    government and businessmen, and the full use of various kinds of television skills. Perhaps another
    important reason is that mothers watch "Sesame Street" together with their children. This is partly because
    famous film stars often appear on "Sesame Street". But the best reason for the success of the program
    may be that it makes every child watching it feel able to learn. The child finds himself learning, and he
    wants to learn more.
    1. The "Sesame Street" has been called "the longest street in the world" because it is ______.
    A. the longest street in the United States
    B. shown in many countries
    C. the longest television program in the world  
    D. watched regularly by six million children
    2. In the United States many children can watch the program regularly because ______.
    A. they needn't go to school
    B. it is shown many hours a day
    C. it is shown in the evening
    D. it is shown many times during the week
    3. One of the important reasons for the success of the program is that ______.
    A. not only children but also their mothers like to watch it  
    B. many famous film stars enjoy watching it
    C. it teaches educational theories
    D. it is produced by the government  
  •      Arabs consider it extremely bad manners to start talking business immediately. Even the busiest
    government official always takes extra(额外的)time to be polite and  offer refreshments. No matter
    how busy you are, you should make time for this.
         The conference visit is a way of doing business throughout the Arab world. Frequently, you will have
    to discuss your business in the presence of strangers, who may or may not have anything to do with
    your business. Do not be surprised if your meeting is interrupted several times by people who come into
    the room unannounced, whisper, or speak softly to the person with whom you are talking, and leave.
         Making decisions quickly is not an Arab custom. There is vagueness in doing business in the Middle
    East which will puzzle a new-comer. Give yourself lots of time and ask them lots of questions.
         When an Arab says "yes", he may mean "maybe". When he says "maybe", he probably means "no".
    You will seldom get a direct “no” from an Arab because it is considered impolite. Instead of  "no", he
    will say "inshallah", which means "if God is willing." On the other hand, "yes" does not necessarily mean
    "yes". A smile and a slow nod might seem like an agreement, but in fact, your host is being polite. An
    Arab thinks that it is impolite to disagree with a guest.
    1. The main purpose of this article is to explain ______.
    A. why you need extra time when you visit Arab countries
    B. how to be polite when doing business in the Arab world
    C. why Arab officials are so busy
    D. what Arabs say when doing business
    2. From this article we know that ______.
    A. when an Arab wants to say "yes", he often says "maybe"
    B. an Arab seldom disagrees with a guest to his face
    C. when an Arab agrees, a smile and a slow nod will be given
    D. "inshallah" is an English word
    3. Which of the following is NOT an Arab custom?
    A. To dislike being interrupted during their meeting.
    B. Often to give you a vague answer.  
    C. Seldom to say "no" directly.
    D. Seldom to hesitate to start talking business in the presence of strangers.
