A countrys standard of living, therefore, depends f
25、irst and foremost on its ability to produce wealth. “Wealth” in this sense is not money, for we do not live on money but on things that money can buy: “goods” such as food and clothing, and “services” such as transport and entertainment.A countrys ability to produce wealth depends upon many factors,
26、 most of which have an effect on one another. Wealth depends to a great extent upon a countrys natural resources, such as coal, gold, and other minerals, water supply and so on.Next to natural resources comes the ability to turn them to use. China is perhaps as well as the U. S. in natural resources
27、, but suffered for many years from wars, and for this and other reasons was unable to develop her resources. Stable political conditions and freedom from foreign invasion(侵略) , enable a country to develop its natural resources peacefully and steadily, and to produce more wealth than another country
28、well served by nature but less well ordered. Another important factor is the technical efficiency (效能) of a countrys people. Old countries that have, through many centuries, trained up a lot of skilled workers and technicians are better placed to produce wealth than countries whose workers are lareg
29、ely unskilled. Wealth also produces wealth. As a country becomes wealthier, its people have a large margin for saving, and can put their savings into factories and machines which will help workers to turn out more goods in their working day.56. A countrys wealth lies in _.A. its standard of livingB.
30、 its ability to develop its natural resourcesC. its ability to provide goods and servicesD. its ability to provide transport and entertainment57. The word “for most” means _.A. most importantly B. firstlyC. largely D. for the most part58. Which of the following is true?A. China does not have the abi
31、lity to turn all its resources to use.B. U. S. is wealthy just because it has a vast land.C. According to the passage, water is not a kind of natural resource.D. With rich natural resources, people can live better.BAt 2:30 on December 5, 1945, five US Navy training planes took off in clear weather f
32、rom the base Lauderdale, Florida. The planes flew east over the coastand disappeared. The group was Flight 19, on a run between Florida and Bahamas. Tailor was the group leader. At about 3:40, Tailor reported that his compasses were not reading properly. The other planes followed their leaders aimle
33、ssly, first east, then west, then northeast over the ocean, as Tailor tried to make sure of the direction by radio. Then, suddenly Tailor was heard to give orders to diveQuickly, two giant Martin seaplanes were sent up to search for Flight 19. Several hours later, the wind became strong and visibili
34、ty (能见度) dropped. A return to base was ordered. But only one of the Martin seaplanes landed. Four days later, the Navy and Coast Guard combed a 100,000 square miles area with more than 100 planes and ships. No sign was ever shown of the missing planes.Today, people have noted the disappearance of ma
35、ny ships and planes in the southwest part of the North Atlantic and began to call this area the Bermuda Triangle (百幕大三角区).The points of the triangle are Bermuda, Puerto Rico and a spot in the Gulf of Mexico, west of Florida. It is a two faced water world of tiny islands, bright beaches and beautiful
36、 waters. Yet thick fogs, powerful currents (激流) and sudden storms are hidden behind this smiling surface.59. Why did Flight 19 disappear?A. Because the wind became strong and visibility dropped.B. Because Tailor was given wrong orders to dive.C. Because Tailor couldnt read his compasses correctly.D.
37、 Because something unknown made the compassed unable to work as usual.60. In what position did Flight 19 disappear?A. In the southeast part of the Atlantic Ocean.B. In the northeast part of the Atlantic Ocean.C. To the southwest of Bermuda in the Atlantic Ocean.D. To the northeast of Bermuda in the
38、Atlantic Ocean.61. How many planes disappeared altogether that day?A. Five. B. Six. C. Two. D. Only one.62. The word “comb” in the passage means _.A. cover with B. fly overC. do up ones hair with a comb D. search all over63. Which of the following shows the correct position of the Bermuda Triangle?(
39、F=Florida, Bm=Bermuda, PR=Puerto Rico, Bh=Barhamas, MG=the Gulf of Mexico, Atl =the Atlantic Ocean, B=Base)It could happen to youMany people think there is no need to take special care over home safety.Im all right, Im insured (投保).Maybe if youre fully insured. Even then you can never recover the va
40、lue you place upon your possessions. But you cant insure against the suffering of mind that we all feel if our homes are torn apart by some stranger, our windows and doors broken, our possessions ruined.“It wont happen to me.”Wont it? A house is broken into every three minutes of the day. Loss of al
41、l kinds, including cars and things stolen from cars, happens every 3 seconds.“Ive nothing worth stealing.”You may think not. But in fact everyone has something worth a thiefs attention. And we all have things of personal value, even if theyre worth little or nothing in hard cash.“Im only a tenant (房
42、客) here.”Most thieves are on the lookout for easy pickings. They are soon discouraged by houses they cant get into quickly and easily. So do pay special attention.“This booklet will help you ”its based on the practical experience of police forces throughout the country. Most of the suggestions will
43、cost you only a few minutes extra time and thought. A few may cost some expense, but this is small compared with the loss and sadness you might otherwise suffer.If you are in any doubt, ask for free advice from the Crime (罪犯) Prevention Office at your local police station.64. The text mainly tells u
44、s about _.A. how to escape being caught B. how to take special care of ourselvesC. how to hire a safe house in the countryD. how to protect your home 65. We can learn from the text that_.A. its impossible to prevent a house from being broken intoB. we all have something that a thief thinks worth ste
45、alingC. most thieves are good at stealing thing from carsD. you cant afford to get advice from your local police station66. If a house if difficult to get into, _.A. the thief may give up tryingB. the thief will steal car or things from carsC. the owner may think extra safety fittings are necessaryD
46、. the owner may think there is no need to take special careDAttention to detail is something everyone can and should do especially in a tight job market. Bob Crossley, a human resources expert notices this in the job applications that comes across his desk every day. “Its amazing how many candidates
47、 eliminate (淘汰) themselves,” he says.“Resumes (求职书) arrive with stains. Some candidates dont bother to spell the companys name correctly. Once I see a mistake, I eliminate the candidate,” Crossley concludes, “If they cannot take care of these details, why should we trust them with a job?”Can we pay
48、too much attention to details? Absolutely. Perfectionists struggle over little things at the cost of something larger they work toward. “To keep from losing the forest for the trees,” says Charles Garfield, associate professor at the University of California, San Francisco. “We must constantly ask o
49、urselves how the details were working on fit into the larger picture. If they dont, we should drop them and move to something else.”Garfield compares this process to his work as a computer scientist at NASA. “The Apollo II moon launch was slightly off course 90 percent of the time, says Garfield, “B
50、ut a successful landing was still likely because we knew the exact position of our goal. This allowed us to make adjustments (调节) as necessary. “Knowing where we want to go helps us judge the importance of every task we undertake.”Too often we believe what accounts for others success is some special
51、 secret or a lucky break, But rarely is success so mysterious. Again and again, we see that by doing little things within our grasp well, large rewards follow.67. According to the passage, some job applicants were rejected _.A. because of their carelessness as shown in their failure to present a cle
52、an copy of a resumeB. because of their limited education as shown in their poor spelling in writing a resumeC. because they failed to give a detailed description of their background in their applicationD. because they eliminated their names from the applicants list themselves68. The word “perfection
53、ists” refuse to those who _.A. demand others to get everything absolutely rightB. know how to adjust their goals according to the circumstancesC. pay too much attention to details only to lose their major objectivesD. are capable of achieving perfect results in whatever they do69. The example of Apl
54、lo II moon launch is given to illustrate that _.A. minor mistakes may not be noticed in achieving major objectivesB. failure is the mother of successC. adjustments are the key to the successful completion of any workD. keeping ones goal in mind helps in deciding which details can be overlooked70. Th
55、e best title for this passage would be _.A. Dont Be a Perfectionist B. Importance of AdjustmentsC. Details and Major Objectives D. Hard Work Plus Good LuckEThough salivation (分泌唾液) is natural, Pavlov noticed that a dog would salivate not just when it was eating, but also when it saw the man who usua
56、lly fed it. In Pavlovs early experiments he simply showed the dog some bread, enough to make the dog salivate. We cannot call this a natural reflex because a dog does not normally salivate at the sight of man. It is what psychologists call a conditioned response(条件反射反应). The dog has been taught, or
57、conditioned, to salivate when he sees the man.Having decided to study this, Pavlov developed scientific methods for doing so. In order to make sure the experimenter did not disturb the dog and experimenter were put in separate rooms. Pavlov even put the dog in a kind of frame to make it stand still.
58、 He invented a system of tubes for giving the dog food, and watched what happened from outside the room. He found that he could condition the dog to salivate at almost any event when a bell rang or a light flashed, for example as long as this event was followed by food.The American psychologist Skin
59、eer developed this idea of conditioning. He could condition animals to do quite complicated things by using a technique he called shaping. He could teach pigeons, for example, to play table tennis. At first he gave them a reward for knocking the ball a short distance in the right direction. Slowly h
60、e increased the distance they must knock the ball before getting the reward, and eventually they received it only when they knocked the ball past their opponent (对手).71. Which of the following is not the experimenters aim?A. To make sure the experimenter did not disturb the dog.B. To invent a system
61、 of tubes.C. To condition the dog to salivate at almost any event.D. To teach pigeons to knock the ball in the right direction.72. In order to make the dog salivate, Pavolv did not _.A. ring the bell B. give the dog foodC. beat the dog D. put the dog in a frame73. During experiments, Skinner _.A. ga
62、ve pigeons a reward for knocking the ball into the holeB. gave pigeons a reward for knocking the ball in opposite directionC. decreased the distance because pigeons must knock the ballD. gave pigeons a reward for knocking the ball past their opponent74. An example of a conditioned response is that _
63、.A. a dog s mouth waters when it is eatingB. a dog is conditioned to salivate when he sees the manC. a dog is trained by an experimenterD. a dog is taught how to drink water75. The underlined word “psychologist” means _.A. 心理学家 B.生理学家 C.物理学家 D.动物学家第四部分：写作（共两节，满分35分）第一节 短文改错（共10小题；每小题1分，满分10分）The for
