18、one word: radiation.Nuclear radiation has a certain mystery about it, partly because it cannot be detected by human senses. It cant be seen or heard, or touched or tasted, even though it may be all around us. There are other things like that. For example, radio waves are all around us but we cant de
19、tect them, sense them, without a radio receiver. Similarly, we cant sense radioactivity without a radiation detector. But unlike common radio waves, nuclear radiation is not harmless to human beings and other living things.At very high levels, radiation can kill an animal or human being immediately
20、by killing masses of cells in vital organs. But even the lowest levels can do serious damage. There is no levels of radiation that is completely safe. If the radiation does not hit anything important, the damage may not be serious. This is the case when only a few cells are hit, and if they are kill
21、ed immediately. Your body will replace the dead cells with healthy ones. But if the few cells are only damaged, and if they reproduce themselves, you may be in trouble. They can grow into cancer. Sometimes this does not show up for many years.This is another reason for some of the mystery about nucl
22、ear radiation. Serious damage can be done without the victim being aware at the time that damage has occurred. A person can be irradiated（辐射）and feel fine, then die for cancer five, ten, or twenty years later as a result. Or a child can be born weak as a result of radiation absorbed by its grandpare

25、ABecause human beings learn its harmfulness.BBecause it can do harm to a person while the victim isnt aware the damage has occurred.CBecause nuclear radiation can kill a person very easily.DBecause human beings have no effective machine in order to detect nuclear radiation.45If a human being is hit
26、by nuclear radiation, he may _.Adie of cancer after many yearsBdie immediatelyChave a child who may be born weakDall of the aboveBKatharine Meyer Graham was once described as “the most powerful woman in America.” She was not a government official or elected representative. She owned and published Th
27、e Washington Post. Under her leadership, it became one of the most important newspapers in the country.Katharine Meyer was born in New York City in 1917. Her father was a successful investment banker and became an important financial official. Her family was very rich. Katharine grew up in large hou
28、ses in New York and Washington. Her parents were often away from home, traveling and working, Katharine was often lonely. Katherine Meyer graduated from the University of Chicago in Illinois in 1938. In 1933, her father bought a failing newspaper, The Washington Post. It was the least successful one
29、 of five newspapers in Washington.Katharine Graham returned to Washington and got a job editing letters to the editor of her fathers newspaper. She married Philip Graham. He was a clerk for Supreme Court Justice Felix Frankfurter but soon accepted a job at his wifes fathers newspaper. Mr. Graham imp
30、roved The Washington Post. He bought Newsweek and several television stations. He also established close ties with important political leaders. However, Mr. Graham treated his wife badly. He had an affair with a young reporter. For many years, Mr. Graham suffered from mental illness. He killed himse
31、lf in 1963.Katharine Graham had four children to raise and a newspaper to operate. At first, she was only concerned about finding a way to keep control of The Washington Post until her sons were old enough. She did not think she had the ability to do an important job. She had no training in business
32、 or experience in operating a large company. In those days, it was unusual for a woman to be the head of a business. Women were expected to look after their homes and children.Katharine Graham met with officials of The Washington Post. She was elected president of The Washington Post Company. She ha
33、d no idea about how to operate a newspaper. So she decided to learn. She began by hiring Benjamin C.Bradlee. He later became chief editor. Mr. Bradlee improved the newspaper. He hired excellent reporters and editors. They began doing important investigative reporting. In 1969, Mrs. Graham became pub
34、lisher as well as president of The Washington Post Company. In the 1970s, The Washington Post became famous around the world because of two major successes.46Katharine Graham is considered powerful because _.Ashe was born of a very rich familyBshe had the most important newspaperCshe was in charge o

Bradlee?A. He was an expert when it came to earning money.B. He brought The Washington Post back to life.
38、C. He intended to buy The Washington Post.D. He should have given more help to Katharine Graham.CNearly everyone agrees that money doesnt buy as much as it used to, no matter when you want to spend it. This is certainly true of the paper money that passes so quickly through ones hands. But what abou
39、t coins that seem to do very little except stay in purses and pockets? Unlike notes, metal money becomes more valuable the longer it is held, especially if it is put away where it wont get scratched or worn. Why is this? One reason is that coins, being more durable, fall more readily into a category
40、 for collectors. Naturally, the rarer gold pieces must become more valuable as the price of this metal goes up.But, curiously, one of the rarest coins in the world is not made of gold, but of the relatively cheaper silver. In 1840, the United States mint (造币厂) struck 19570 silver dollars. That is wh
41、at its records show. Today only six of this original number remain and these are unlikely ever to reach the auction (拍卖) market. So what happened to some 19564 large silver coins, not the easiest sort of things to lose? One of the more romantic theories is that they were part of the payment to Napol
42、eon for the American land then known as Louisiana. But they never reached France. Somewhere in the Gulf of Mexico, the ship transporting them was sunk, either by a storm or by pirates. The probable answer to the mystery is that they were melted down since the silver value was greater than the actual
43、 value of the coin. What really happened to the rest will probably always remain a mystery. What is known is that whoever can come up with one will find himself instantly rich.51We can learn from the passage that _.Amoney buys as much as it did beforeBmoney does not buy as much as it did beforeCpape
44、r money buys more than metal moneyDmetal money buys more than paper money52Which of the following is true of a coin?AThe longer it is held, the less valuable it becomes.BThe more it wears out, the more valuable it becomes.CThe less it gets scratched, the less it values.DThe longer it lasts, the more
45、 it values.53According to this passage, one of the rarest coins in the world is made of _.Asilver Bgold Ccopper Dpaper54Coins become more valuable because _.Athey stay in purses and pocketsBthe price of metal goes upCthey fall more readily into a category for collectors due to their durationDBoth B
46、and C55What really happened to some 19564 large silver coins?AThey were melted down.BThey were sunk in the Gulf of Mexico.CIt is still a mystery.DThey were stolen by pirates.五短文改错。（每小题1分，共10处错误）John Brown is a London taxi driver who love going to the theatre. Last week his mother gave her two ticket
47、s for a play. The tickets were on Sunday evening. Then John read some reviews of the play, which all said was a terribly one. He wouldnt go to a play that no one liked. Therefore, two hours before the play started, he left the ticket on the back seat of his taxi. But someone who wanted see the play
48、would take them. However, while John went back home, the tickets were still there. In the fact, there were four tickets on the seat.

49、play volleyball or go swimming or skiing. They may watch football or basketball games on the high school, college, or professional level. In reality, sports have reached a point where they play too large a part in daily life. They take up too much media time, play too large a role in the raising of
50、children, and give too much power and prestige（声望）to athletes.The overemphasis（过度强调）on sports can be seen most obviously in the vast media coverage of athletic events. It seems as if every race, meet, or match is shown on one television channel or another. Radio offers a complete list of games and a
51、 variety of talk shows. Furthermore, many daily papers such as USA Today are devoting more and more space to sports coverage, often in an attempt to attract more readers. The paper with the biggest sports section is the one people will buy. The way we raise and educate our children also illustrates
52、our sports craziness. As early as six or seven, kids are placed in little leagues, often to play under screaming coaches and pressuring parents. Later, in high school, students who are selected by the school and by the community are not those who are best academically（学业上）but those who are best athl
53、etically. The United States may be the only country in the world where people often think of their colleges as teams first and schools second. The names Penn State, Notre Dame and Southern Cal mean “sports” to the public. For one thing, we reward them with huge salaries. In 1990, for example, baseba
54、ll players averaged $350,000 a year; the average annual salary in the United States is $18,000. Besides their huge salaries, athletes receive the admiration, and sometimes the votes of the public. Why are Americans so mad about sports? Perhaps we like to see the competitiveness we experience in our
55、daily lives acted out on playing fields. Perhaps we need heroes who can achieve clear-cut victories in the space of only an hour or two. 第一节 选出最适合选项。选项中有一项是多余选项。. Our sports craziness is especially evident in the prestige given to athletes in the United States.B. Kids look up to a Michael Jordan or
56、a Roger Clements as a true hero.C. Whatever the reason, the sports scene in this country is more popular than ever. D. And college sometimes seems to be more about sports than about learning.E. In addition, sports news makes up about 30 percent of local news at six and eleven.第二节 根据短文所给的信息，用一个完整的句子回答下面的问题。What is the main idea of the passage?
