17、节每小题1分；满分45分）第一节 阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。AIt is a matter of common observation that although incomes keep going up over the years, people never seem to become much better off！ Prices are rising continuously. This is called inflation（通货膨胀）. The money supply is becoming inflated
18、 so that each unit of it becomes less valuable. People have got used in recent years to higher and higher rates of inflation. What could be bought ten years ago for one dollar now costs well over two dollars. It seems that this rate of inflation is tending to rise rather than to fall. If in the real
19、 world our money incomes go up at the same rate as prices one might think that inflation does not matter. But it does. When money is losing value it lacks one of the qualities of a good money-stability（稳定） of value. It is no longer acceptable as a store of value; and it becomes an unsuitable standar
20、d of deferred（延期） payments. Nobody wants to hold a wasting possession, so people try to get rid of money as quickly as possible. Inflation therefore stimulates people spending, and prevents people from saving.41From the passage, we can know inflation _ .Aseldom happensBis very common at presentCis a

23、ssional ladder, more are finding it necessary to make business trips alone. Since this is new for many, some tips are certainly in order. If you are married, it is a good idea to encourage your husband and children to learn to cook a few simple meals while you are away. They will be much happier and
24、 probably enjoy the experience. If you will be eating alone a good meal, choose good restaurants. In the end, they will be much better for your digestion（消化）. You may also find it useful to call the restaurant in advance and state that you will be eating alone. You will probably get better service a
25、nd almost certainly a better table. Finally, and most importantly, anticipate（提前准备）your travel needs as a businesswoman; this starts with lightweight luggage which you can easily manage even when fully packedTake a folding（折叠）case inside your suitcase; it will come in extremely handy（方便）for dirty cl
26、othes, as well as for business documents and papers you no longer need on the trip. And make sure you have a briefcase so that you can keep currently required papers separate. Obviously, experience helps, but you can make things easier on yourself from the first time by careful planning, so that rig
27、ht from the start you really can have a good trip!45Who is the authors intended audience? AWorking women who have no time for cooking.BHusbands and children of working women.CWorking women who must travel on their own.DHotel personnel who must attend to working women.46Which of the following can be
28、concluded from the passage?AA greater percentage of women are advancing professionally in the U.S. than before.BProfessional men refuse to go with women on business trips.CEach year there are more women tourists in the United States.DBusinesswomen become successful by showing a willingness to travel
29、 alone.47Why is lightweight luggage important for the traveling businesswomen?AIt provides space for dirty clothes.BIt is easy to carry and move.Cit can double as a briefcase.DIt is usually big enough to carry all business documents.48Where would this passage most likely appear?AIn a magazine specia
30、lly for women.BIn a restaurant and hotel guide.CIn a news magazine.DIn a journal for top-ranking businessmen and women.CTUVALU, a tiny country in the Pacific Ocean, has asked for help as it fears it will be swallowed up by the sea.Storms and huge waves are a constant threat and none of Tuvalus nine
31、little islands is more than five meters above sea level. Salt water is already entering the countrys drinking water supply, as well as damaging plants that produce fruit and vegetable. Without urgent help, the countrys days are numbered.But Tuvalu is not the first place to face sinking into the seaV
32、enice, a historic city in Italy best known for its canals, has sunk about 24 cm over the past 100 years. Experts say that it will have sunk another 20-50 cm by 2050. A century ago, St. Marks Square, the lowest point in the city, flooded about nine times a year. Nowadays, it happens more than 100 tim
33、es. While Venice is slowly sinking into the mud on which it stands, Tuvalus rising sea level is caused by global warming.The average global temperature has increased by almost 0.5 centigrade degrees over the past century; scientists expect it to rise by extra 1-3 degrees over the next 100 years.Warm
34、er weather makes glaciers（冰川）melt, adding more water to the ocean. The warmer temperatures also make water expand, so it takes up more space, causing the sea level to rise. The sea level has risen about 10-25 cm in the last 100 years.The main cause of global warming is human pollution. Through burni
35、ng coal, oil and gas, people have been increasing the greenhouse gases in the atmosphere, such as CO2. This adds to the power of the greenhouse effect, making the planet even warmer.Many scientists believe that if the warming is not stopped, there will be huge climate changes. The sea level could ri
36、se by one meter this century. Should this come true, the sea will swallow up millions of homes and the world will be flooded with “climate refugees” looking for somewhere to live.49We can infer from the second paragraph that _ .ATuvalu is in danger of being swallowed up by the seaBall Tuvalus island
37、s are about five meters above the sea levelCdrinking water in Tuvalu has been destroyedDTuvalu is often flooded by storms and waves50The author uses Tuvalu and Venice as examples in order to explain _.Athey are the first places sinking into the sea Bthey are both sinking into the mud where they stan

40、es unable to solve a problem react by just giving up. But it is not good to escape from problems by giving up or by making excuses for failures. You may be sure that all young people go through the same difficult process that you are going through: meeting new situations, developing new skills, and
41、testing their abilities.If you are unhappy about something, face it. Try to state the problem in a few words, so that you will know exactly what you are up against. Then see if you can “put your finger” on the cause of your unhappiness.In many cases, we only “think”there is no solution to a particul
42、ar problem. But often we can overcome the problem and achieve the goal by making a direct attack.For example, a boy wanted to be a debater (辩论家). When he tried out for the debating team as a freshman, the coach thought he was hopeless. He was shy; he had a high-pitched voice; and his posture（体态）was
43、poor. Although he was given little hope of success, he took advantage of every opportunity to debate. He studied successful speakers and sized up(估计.的大小) his own weaknesses and assets. Then he spent many hours learning all the facts on the topics for debate, and worked at developing good posture and
44、 at speaking clearly. By his junior year, he made the school debating team, and in his senior year he was on the winning team in his state. He achieved his goal because he had made a direct attack upon his problem.Although direct attack is often the best way to meet problems, we have to be realistic
45、 in judging situations. Sometimes it is necessary to change either the tactics（策略）or the goal.A boy who wants to be a great football player may be too light and not quite fast enough for football. In this situation, becoming a great football player may be an unreasonable goal for him. However, he ma
46、y become outstanding in tennis or golf, and satisfy his desire to take part in sports.A girl who has plain features may decide that she cannot win popularity with her face, and so she may try to develop an interesting personality, which eventually will get her much further. In this situation, she mu
47、st change her method of achieving her goal.So, although direct attack is often the best way to handle problems, it is important to study the situation and make a wise decision about what to do.53What is the main idea discussed in the first paragraph? AGiving up a puzzling problem.BEscaping from prob
48、lems by making excuses for failures.CGoing through the same difficult process.DTesting peoples abilities.54The underlined phrase“are up against”in the second paragraph could be best replaced by “_.”Aare fond ofBare faced with Cmet withDlooked at55By taking the example of the boy who wanted to be a d

50、 wise decision about what to do 56Which of the following is the topic sentence of the text?AIt is not good to escape from problems by giving up or by making excuses for failures.BIf you are unhappy about something, face it, and try to state the problem in a few words.CAlthough direct attack is often
51、 the best way to meet problems, we have to be realistic in judging situations.DAlthough direct attack is often the best way to handle problems, it is important to study the situation and make a wise decision about what to do.2,4,6EWith fifteen years Britain and other nations should be well on with t
52、he building of huge industrial complexes(联合体) of the recycling of waste. The word “rubbish” could lose its meaning because everything that goes into the dumps would be made into something useful. Even the most dangerous and unpleasant wastes would provide energy if nothing else.The latest project is
53、 to take a city of around half a million inhabitants and discover exactly what raw materials go into it and what go out. The aim is to find out how many of these raw materials could be provided if a plant for recycling waste were built just outside the city. This plant would recycle not only metal s
54、uch as steel, lead and copper, but also paper and rubber as well.Another new project is being set up to discover the best way of sorting and separating the rubbish. When this project is complete, the rubbish will be processed like this: First, it will pass through sharp metal bars which will tear op
55、en the plastic bags in which rubbish is usually packed; then it will pass through a powerful fan to separate the lightest elements from the heavy solids; after that founders and rollers will break up everything that can be broken. Finally, the rubbish will pass under magnets（磁铁）, which will remove t
56、he bits of iron and steel; the rubber and plastic will then be sorted out in the final stage.The first full-size giant recycling plants are perhaps fifteen years away. Indeed, with the growing cost of transporting rubbish to more distant dumps, some big cities will be forced to build their own recyc
