41、 out of the language laboratoryD.students can use course books free of charge62Timetable can be seen in A.Room 1110 B.Room 3250 C.the language laboratory D.the lecture hallCLanguage is a major problem for the European Union (EU). The agreement or treaty（条约）which created the organization that eventua
42、lly became the EU, the Treaty of Rome, stated that each countrys language must be treated equally. The original (原来的)six countries had only three languages between them: French, German and Dutch/Flemish. However, there are now 15 countries in the EU, with a total of 12 languages. EU documents must b
43、e translated into all these languages, and at official meetings the speeches must be translated into all the languages by interpreters . All this translating is very expensive and time-consuming(费时的). It is said that nearly half of all employees of the EU are engaged in translating documents and spe
44、eches, and nearly half of the EUs administrative(管理方面的)costs are spent on this task. In the near future it is probable that several more countries, most of them having their own languages, will join the EU, thus making the situation even worse.The problem is not just cost; there are practical diffic
45、ulties as well. With 12 languages, there are 132 possible translation situations that might be needed. It is often difficult to find people in the right place at the right time who can translate from (for example) Danish into Greek, or Dutch into Portuguese, at a high professional standard.In practi
46、ce the problem has been made less severe by the use of English in many contacts (接触)between EU officials, since almost all of them speak some English. However, any move to reduce the number of official languages (perhaps to four or five) would be a blow to the pride of the smaller countries. Another
47、 commonly suggested solution is to make English the official language for all EU business. However, this is strongly resisted by powerful member countries like France and Germany.63. The organization that eventually became the EU_.A. was started by France and Germany B. started with three countriesC
48、. was set up by the Treaty of Rome D. included 132 languages 64. Whats the main purpose of this passage?A. To give a solution to a problem.B. To find out a problem and show how severe it is.C. To criticize the European Union for inefficiency.D. To show that the problem cannot be solved. 65. Accordin
49、g to the writer, the use of English in contacts among EU officials has_.A. angered the officials who dont speak EnglishB. reduced the number of official languagesC. lessened the effect of the problemD. been opposed by powerful member countries 66. The writer mentions Danish into Greek as an example
50、of_.A. a situation that might be difficult to deal withB. a situation that occurs oftenC. one of the 12 situations that requires an interpreterD. languages easily being interpreted 67. The writer suggests that if the number of official languages was reduced _.A. the EU would not know which official
51、languages to chooseB. countries whose languages were not used officially would be unhappyC. only languages which are easy to translate would be used officiallyD. the smaller member countries would be pleasedD If parents bring up a child with the aim of turning the child into a genius(天才), they will
52、cause great damage to him. According to several leading educational experts, this is one of the biggest mistakes that some parents make. Generally, the child will understand very well what the parents expect, and will fall. Unrealistic(不现实) expectations of the parents can cause great damage to child
53、ren. However, if parents are not unrealistic about what they expect their children to do, but are hopeful in a sensible(明智) way, the child may succeed in doing very well - especially if the parents are very supportive to their children. Michael Li is very lucky. He is very fond of music and his pare
54、nts help him a lot by taking him to concerts and let him attend piano and violin lessons. Although Michaels mother knows very little about music, his father is a good musician. However, he never makes Michael enter music competitions if he is unwilling. Michaels friend, Winston Chen, however, is not
55、 so lucky. Although both his parents are successful musicians, they set too high a standard for Winston. They want their son to be as successful as they are and so they enter him in every piano competition held. They are very unhappy when he does not win. “When I was your age I used to win every com
56、petition I enter.” Winstons father tells him. Winston is always afraid that he will disappoint his parents and now he always quiet and unhappy.68. The main idea of the passage is _.A. what differences there are between parentsB. what aim of a child can be easier to reach C. how parents should make a
57、 child a musicianD. how parents should bring up their children69. Michael is lucky because _.A. his parents help him in a sensible way B. his family is rich enough to have a carC. his father is a successful musician D. he is free to do anything he likes best70. Winstons parents set so high a standar
58、d for him that _.A. he has to do his best to do everything B. he has made greater progress in musicC. he is afraid he may disappoint them D. he often wants to kill himself someday71. It is one of the parents worst mistakes if they _.A. want their child to be a musician B. make their child try to ach
59、ieve too muchC. dont care their childs education muchD. help their child to win music competitionEThese days a green building means more than just the color of the paint. Green buildings can also refer to environmentally friendly houses, factories, and offices.Green building means “reducing the impa
60、ct(影响)of the building on the land”,Taryn Holowka of the U.S. Green Building Council in Washington,D.C said.According to Holowka, building accounts for(占了) 65 percent of total U.S. electricity use.But green buildings can reduce energy and water use. Also, the buildings are often located near public t
61、ransportation such as buses and subways, so that people can drive their cars less.That could be good for the environment, because cars use lots of gas and give off pollution. Green buildings are often built on developed land, so that the buildings dont destroy forests.Marty Dettling is project manag
62、er for a building that put these ideas into active. The Solaire has been called the countrys first green high-rise building, according to Dettling, Weve reduced our energy use by one-third and our water by 50 percent.The Solaire cuts energy in past by using solar power. “On the face of the building
63、we have solar panels which change the suns energy into electricity,” Dettling explained.The Solaire also has lights that automatically turn off when people leave the room. In addition, the building has lots of windows, allowing people to use the sun for light during the day. The solaire cuts water r
64、eusing it.Not everyone is eager to move into a green building, however. Some people think that things like solar panels cost more money than more traditional energy sources. Anyhow, Holowka said, “It”s going to be big.”72. In the second paragraph, the underlined words “the building” most probably re
65、fer to _.A. an ordinary building B. an energy-saving building C. a green-colored building D. a building in Washington D.C.73. A green building is often built on an area of land_.A. which has thick forests around B. which has already been for buildingsC.where people of high income live D.where travel
66、ing around by car is most convenient 74. When Holowka says in the last paragraph, “Its going to be big”, she means that green buildings_.A. will be more comfortable B. will become popular in futureC.will be more environmentally friend D. will take the place of traditional building 75. When is the ma
67、in subject discussed in the text?A. Dettling designed the first green building in the U.S.B. Energy shortage calls for buildings of new design.C. Green buildings help save environment.D.
