She lives in Boston, Massachusetts, in U. S. Last Thursday
14、, she didnt go to school. She went to work with her father instead. Every year, on the fourth Thursday in April, millions of young girls go to work. This is Take Our Daughters to Work Day. The girls are between the ages of 9 and 15. They spend the day at work with an adult, usually a mother, father,
15、 aunt, or uncle. They go to offices, police stations, laboratories, and other places where their parents or other family members work. Next year, the day will include sons, too. The Ms. Foundation, an organization for women, started the program about ten years ago. In the U.S., many women work outsi
16、de the home. The Ms. Foundation wanted girls to find out about many different kinds of jobs. Then, when the girls grow up, they can choose a job they like. Caras father is a film director. Cara says, “It was very exciting for me to go to the studio with my dad. I saw a lot of people doing different
17、jobs.” Many businesses have special activities for girls on this day. Last year, Cara went to work with her aunt at the University of Massachusetts. In the engineering department, the girls learned to build a bridge with toothpicks and candy. In the chemistry department, they learned to use scales.
18、They learned about many other kinds of jobs, too. Right now, Cara does not know what job she will have when she grows up. But because of Take Our Daughters to Work Day, she knows she has many choices.36. What is Caras father?A. An engineer. B. An official. C. A moviemaker. D. A professor. 37. Accord

Now girls know what job they will have because of the Take Our Daughters to Work Day. D. Boys have no trouble deciding on the
22、ir future jobs.B Without proper planning, tourism can cause problems. For example, too many tourists can crowd public places that are also enjoyed by the inhabitants of a country. If tourists create too much traffic, the inhabitants become annoyed and unhappy. They begin to dislike tourists and to t
23、reat them impolitely. They forget how much tourism can help the countrys economy. It is important to think about the people of a destination country and how tourism affects them. Tourism should help a country keep the customs and beauty that attract tourists. Tourism should also advance the wealth a
24、nd happiness of local inhabitants. Too much tourism can be a problem. If tourism grows too quickly, people must leave other jobs to work in the tourism industry. This means that other parts of the countrys economy can suffer.On the other hand, if there is not enough tourism, people can lose jobs. Bu
25、sinesses can also lose money. It costs a great deal of money to build large hotels, airports, air terminals, first-class roads, and other support facilities(配套设施) needed by tourist attractions. For example, a major international class tourism hotel can cost as much as 50 thousand dollars per room to
26、 build. If this room is not used most of the time, the owners of the hotel lose money. Building a hotel is just a beginning. There must be many support facilities as well, including roads to get to the hotel, electricity, sewers(下水道) to handle waste, and water. All of these support facilities cost m
27、oney. If they are not used because there are not enough tourists, jobs and money are lost.41.Which of the following do you think has been discussed in the part before this passage?A.

31、n. The number is said as high as 60% in West Germany.“Women often wish that they had the same chance as men have, and believe it is still mens world,” said Dr James Holden, one of the scientists who did the study.Anne Harper has a very good job for an international oil company. She also believes in
32、“Women s Liberation(解放)”. “I dont wish that I were a man,” she says, “and I dont think many women do. But I do wish that people would stop looking down upon us women. At work, for example, we often do the work that men do but get paid less. There are still a lot of jobs that are usually the best one
33、s and open only to men. If youre a man, you have a much better chance of leading an exciting life. How many women pilots are there . or engineers or scientists?”46.

38、entific organization warned yesterday.In a 60-page report by a panel of scientists, the organization, the Royal Society, said the growing acidity would be very likely to harm coral reefs and other marine life by the end of the century.Unlike forecasts of global warming, which are based on complex an
39、d incomplete computer models, the research of carbon dioxide and seawater is simple and straightforward.The burning of fossil fuels by cars and power plants releases more than 25 billion metric tons of carbon dioxide into the air each year. Roughly a third of that is absorbed by the oceans, where th
40、e gas undergoes chemical reactions that produce carbonic acid, which is corrosive(腐蚀性的) to shells.The pH scale, which measures the concentration(浓度) of hydrogen ions(离子), runs from 1, the most acidic and highest concentration of ions, to 14, the most alkaline(碱性的), with almost no ions. Ocean water t
41、oday is somewhat alkaline, at 8.1, about 0.1 lower than at the start of the Industrial Revolution two centuries ago. But like the magnitude scale of earthquakes, one unit on the pH scale reflects a change of a factor of 10. The 0.1 pH change means there are now 30 percent more hydrogen ions in the w
42、ater.Depending on the rate of fossil fuel burning, the pH of ocean water near the surface is expected to drop from below 7.7 by 2100, lower than any time in the last 420,000 years, the Royal Society report said.But Dr. Ken Caldera, a research scientist at the Carnegie Institutions Department of Glob
43、al Ecology in Stanford, Calif. and a member of the Royal Society panel, said that the current carbon dioxide release was occurring quickly, over just two centuries. In the past, water from the deeper ocean would have had time to mix, diluting(稀释，冲淡) the effect of the carbon dioxide.The pH change is
44、likely to slow the rate of growth of coral reefs, which are already suffering from warmer temperatures and pollution, the report said. The increased acidity could also reduce populations of plankton(浮游生物) with calcium carbonate shells, disrupting the food chain and hurting fisheries.51. The passage
45、is mainly about the fact that _. A. carbon dioxide does not affect global warming B. ocean is suffering from the carbon dioxides invasion C. carbon dioxide does not contribute to the oceans acidic change D. cars and power plants are the main source of carbon dioxide52. What can we learn from the fif
46、th paragraph? A. In the pH scale, 1 refers to the latest acidic. B. The ocean still keeps very acidic. C. Compared to the time of Industrial Revolution, the ocean now is having 30 percent more hydrogen ions.D. The ocean two centuries ago was quite acidic.53. According to the passage, which one does
47、NOT contribute to the slow growth of coral reefs? A. The warmer temperatures. B. The air pollution. C. The acidity. D. The food chain behavior.54. Compared to the forecast of global warming, what is the research of carbon dioxide like? A. It is easier to acquire data. B. It needs more time to finish
48、 a research. C. It requires more people to do such work. D. It is based on lots of computer models.55. According to the passage, what is the authors attitude to the carbon acidity? A. Anxious. B. Not clear. C. Optimistic. D. Pessimistic.第二节 信息匹配（共5小题，每小题2分，满分10分）阅读下列应用文及相关信息，并按照要求匹配信息。请在答题卡上将对应题号的相应
