48、th is an unimportant planet moving round an unimportant star, it would be a pride on our part to suppose that we are the only intelligent beings in the universe. But to obtain proof is difficult.The main trouble is that our neighbor worlds, the bodies in the solar system appear to be unsuitable for
49、advanced life forms. The Moon may be ruled out at once; it has hardly any atmosphere. Venus is little better; the surface temperature is extremely high and the atmosphere is mostly carbon dioxide. Mars with a very thin atmosphere and a severe shortage of water, may well support simple plant life but
50、 there seems no hope of finding animals, while the attractive Martians of the story tellers have long since been given up.Of course this has not stopped the flow of bright ideas for communicating with the supposed people on Mars. In the early nineteenth century the great mathematician Gauss suggeste
51、d planting tree patterns in Siberia, so that the Martians would see them and replay suitably.Following up this idea, the Austrian scientist Karl Littrow proposed digging very wide ditches in the Sahara, triangular in patterns, and then filling them with petrol or some substance so that, when lit, th
52、e ditches would present Martian observers with a “flaming triangle” which would show the existence here of intelligent minds. Even better were the plans of Charles Cross, a French writer of the 1870s, who wanted to build a large mirror to reflect the suns rays and concentrate them on the surface of
53、Mars, thereby making a vast burning glass. By swinging the mirror around, Cross explained it would be practicable to write words in the Martian deserts simply by burning the sand. For many years he bombarded (炮轰) the French government with literature about this plan and was very disappointed when no
54、 official interest was shown.72The opinion of the writer is that .Athere may be other intelligent beings in the universeBthere are other intelligent beings in the universeCpeople living on the earth are almost certainly the only intelligent beings in the universeDpeople living on the earth are defin
55、itely the only intelligent beings in the universe73There is unlikely any life on Venus because .Athe surface is too hotBthe weather is too coldCit is severely short of waterDit has a very thin atmosphere74It seems that Mars .Amay be inhabited by attractive MartiansBmay have some vegetable lifeCcan h

57、hown in his planD“There will always be bears, and there will always be bulls, but one can never know when one will dominate the other.” This quote by noted economist William Urster efficiently summarizes the economic theory of market cycles, in which periods of economic growth must inevitably be fol
58、lowed by periods of downturn, and vice versa. These respective periods play off one another, reinforcing a positive trend of growth over the long term.It is a tradition on Wall Street to refer to periods of sustained economic loss and recession as “bear” markets. The name is derived from the way a b
59、ear attacks its prey, by swinging downward with its claws, thus indicating the markets downward charted trend. The “bull” market, however, is explained as following the upward motion a bull uses to attack its enemy with its horns, signaling an upward trend for the economy. As the bear and the bull d
60、o battle, the investors find the economy quite unpredictable, and thus hard to apply the time honored philosophy of buying stocks when the market is low, so as to sell when the market is high, at a substantial profit.Such market timing is not necessary, however. Over the history of the American stoc
61、k exchange, the long term pattern for the economy has always been up. In fact, the American economy, as gauged by the Standard and Poors Index, has grown at an astonishing 11% average per year. Thus, by simply investing at an appropriate time and keeping ones money in the market, long term investors
62、 who can stomach the roller coaster (忽好忽坏的) ride through the down periods will come out much richer for it in the long run.Few seem to have the patience and discipline to think long term in the market, however, preferring to gamble instead, by hopping in and out of stocks, hoping to catch the buy at
63、 the lowest point and the sell at the highest. It has been statistically proven, however, that such short term trading tends to result in losses over time. Aside from losses due to bad sales, tax consequences and brokerage fees chip away at these short sighted traders pockets, reinforcing the lesson
64、. “Patience is a virtue,” its said, and the stock market certainly provides no exception.76It is argued that the least successful investors are those who .Ainvest only in the short termBtry to time market periods by constantly buying and sellingCmaintain a long term view of the economyDhave the disc
65、ipline to invest for long term periods77The underlined word “gauged” means .Acalculated something by using a particular instrumentBtried to make a judgment about somethingCmade an estimate Dexpressed an opinion about something78What can be inferred from the text?AIf an investor has patience, he will
66、 see his money grow in the stock market.BWithout discipline, an investor cannot make money in the United States stock market.CThe US economy is best characterized by the metaphor of the bull.DEven when losses are suffered, a long term approach will end in profit.79The author uses the quote by Urster
67、 in the first paragraph in order to .Asupport his hypothesis by showing that a prominent figure agrees with himBuse an experts opinion as the basis of his argumentCexplain why the stock market is such an unpredictable institutionDintroduce the main point of the textEDirections: Read the text and cho

69、n students learning Chinese 80 Growing numbers of foreigners are showing a desire to learn the Chinese language, according to the latest official statistics. It is estimated that the number coming to China to learn the language has maintained an average annual growth rate of 35 per cent over the pas
70、t few years.81 Chinas continuous economic expansion and the strengthening of its trade and business ties with the rest of the world have been behind the interest in learning Chinese. These kinds of business engagements have in turn sparked a huge demand for professional employees in foreign countrie
71、s with a good command of Chinese.82 The trend is more evident among some of Chinas largest trading partners, particularly Japan, the United States, the Republic of Korea and some nations in southeast Asia. “I think good knowledge of Chinese can help me secure a good job back in my country as there i
72、s a growing number of companies setting up operations in China,” said a 24 year old female student of Peking University who comes form South Korea. She added that a certificate of the Chinese Proficiency Test, or Hanyu Shuiping Kaoshi (HSK), is important when seeking a job in a large foreign trade c
73、ompany in South Korea.83 The HSK test began in Beijing in 1988. It is a national, standardized test designed to assess foreign students command of Chinese. So far, the Office of the State Commission for the Chinese Proficiency Test has set up 44 testing centers in 27 cities in China, including Hong
74、Kong and Macao special administrative regions, and 55 centers in 24 other countries in Asia, Europe, the Americas and Oceania. Since 1991, a total of 380,000 people from 120 countries have taken the test in those centers, said Vice Minister of Education Zhang Xinsheng.84 “The Chinese language as wel
75、l as Chinese culture and other languages and cultures has played a tremendous role in developing human civilization and pushing forward social progress.” Zhang said. “Hopefully the exchange of languages can help enhance understanding and friendship between peoples of different countries.” He added.第

Part B PassagesQuestions 11 through 13 are based on the following passage.The first step to stop drug use is knowing why people start
90、to use drugs. The reasons people use drugs are as different as people are from one to another. But there seems to be one common thread: people seem to take drugs to change the way they feel. They want to feel better or feel nothing. Sometimes, they want to forget or to remember. People often feel be
91、tter about themselves when they are under the influence of drugs, but the effects dont last long. Drugs dont solve problems. They just postpone them. No matter how far drugs may take you, its always a round trip. After a while, people who miss drugs may feel worse about themselves, and they may use
92、more drugs. If someone you know is using drugs, you can help. The most important part you can play is to be there. You can let your friends know that you care. You can listen and try to solve the problem behind your friends need to use drugs. Two people together can often solve a problem that seems
93、too big for one person alone. Studies of heavy users in the United States show that they felt unlived and unwanted. They didnt have close friends to talk to.
