BFrom the health point of view we are living in an amazing age. We are free from many of the most dangerous
28、diseases. A large number of once deadly illnesses can now be cured by modern medicine. It is almost certain that one day medicines will be found for the most stubborn remaining diseases. The expectation of life has increased greatly. But though the possibility of living a long and happy life is grea
29、ter than ever before, every day we witness the unbelievable killing of men, women and children on the roads. Man vs the motor-car. It is a never-ending battle which man is losing. Thousands of people the world over are killed or horribly killed each year and we are quietly sitting back and letting i
30、t happen.It has been rightly said that when a man is sitting behind a steering wheel (方向盘), his car becomes the extension of his personality. There is no doubt that the motor-car often brings out a mans very worst qualitiesPeople who are normally quiet and pleasant may become unrecognizable when the
31、y are behind a steering-wheel. They say, they are ill-mannered and aggressive, willful as two-year-olds and completely selfishAll their hidden angers and disappointments seem to be brought to the surface by the act of driving. The surprising thing is that society smiles so gently on the motorist and
32、 seems to forgive his behavior. Everything is done for his convenience. Cities are allowed to become almost uninhabitable because of heavy traffic; towns are made ugly by huge car parks; the countryside is ruined by road networks; and the deaths become nothing more than a number every year, to be ea
33、sily forgotten.It is high time a world rule was created to reduce this senseless waste of human life. With regard to driving, the laws of some countries are unbelievably lax (不严格) and even the strictest are not strict enough. A rule which was universally accepted could only have an obviously benefic
34、ial effect on the accident rateHere are a few examples of some of the things that might be done. The driving test should be standardized and made far more difficult than it is; all the drivers should be made to take a test every three years or so; the age at which young people are allowed to drive a
35、ny vehicle should be raised to at least 21; all vehicles should be put through strict tests for safety each year. Even the smallest amount of alcohol in the blood can damage a persons driving ability. Present drinking and driving laws (where they exist) should be made much stricter. Speed limits sho
36、uld be required on all roads. Governments should lay down safety specifications for car factories, as has been done in the USA. All advertising stressing power and performance should be banned. These measures may not sound good enough. But surely nothing should be considered as too severe if it resu
37、lts in reducing the number of deaths. After all, the world is for human beings, not motor-cars. 46. What is the main idea of this passage?A. Traffic accidents are mainly caused by motorists.B. Thousands of people the world over are killed each year.C. Only stricter traffic laws can prevent accidents
38、.D. The laws of some countries about driving are too lax.47. What does the author think of society toward motorists?A. Society laughs at the motorists. B. Society forgives their rude driving.C. Victims of accidents are nothing. D. Huge car parks are built in the cities and towns.48. What does the au
39、thor mean by saying “his car becomes the extension of his personality” in Para. 2 ?A. Driving can represent his manners.B. Driving can show the other part of his personality.C. Driving can bring out his character.D. Driving can show his hidden qualities.49. Which of the followings is NOT mentioned a
40、s a way against traffic accidents?A. Test drivers every three years.B. Stricter driving tests.C. Build more highways.D. Raise age limit and lay down safety specifications.50. The authors attitude towards the present traffic situation is _.A. unsatisfied B. positiveC. appealing D. unclear CSAN FRANCI
41、SCO Rising sea levels from climate change could wash away some of Californias most iconic beaches by the end of the century, along with hundreds of millions of dollars in property, according to a new study.“If beaches disappear, shrink and erode（受到侵蚀）, we are going to have less tourism,” said Philli
42、p King, an associate professor of economics at San Francisco State University. “We took the best available science, and its possible the (estimated) costs are still too low.”Economists at the university spent two years projecting economic losses from climate change at San Franciscos Ocean Beach and
43、the communities of Carpinteria, Malibu, Venice and Torrey Pines State Reserve near San Diego.Based on forecasts calling for sea levels to rise between 1 and 2 meters by the year 2100, the researchers invented models predicting which properties, infrastructure (基础设施), wildlife habitats and open space
44、s will be flooded or eroded, and the value of those losses.They also surveyed existing reports to determine how costly it would be to protect or replace those coastal resources.Venice Beach stands to be the hardest hit of the five shorelines studied, with a 2-meter rise in sea level over the next 90
45、 years resulting in $96 million in losses, according to the report. A 1-meter increase over the same period would cause $31.6 million in losses there.A more comprehensive 2009 study by the Pacific Institute, an environmental think tank, concluded that nearly 500,000 people and $100 billion worth of
46、property along Californias entire coast were at risk of severe flooding from rising sea levels this century unless new safeguards were put in place.The San Francisco State University researchers said their findings could guide policymakers when they consider future shorefront development.(Reuters)51
47、. What will a 1-meter rise in sea level over the next 90 years result in? A. 1/2 as much loss as a 2-meter rise in sea level causes at Ocean Beach.B. 1/2 as much loss as a 2-meter rise in sea level causes at Malibu Beach.C. 1/3 as much loss as a 2-meter rise in sea level causes at Californias Beach.
48、D. 1/3 as much loss as a 2-meter rise in sea level causes at Venice Beach.52. What does the underlined word “shrink” in Para. 2 mean?A. become smaller B. lose itselfC. wear away D. get destroyed 53. What can we learn from the passage?A. People and property along Californias entire coast are to be se
49、verely flooded this century.B. Venice Beach will remain standing there in spite of the rising sea level in the future. C. The article mainly tells us that the rising seas could wash out California beaches. D. The rise of sea levels can be completely controlled and wont affect tourism.54. Whats the t
50、one of the writer?A. Optimistic B. Matter-of-fact C. Doubtful D. PessimisticDI was puzzled! Why was this old woman making such a fuss about an old copse which was of no use to anybody? She had written letters to the local paper, even to a national, protesting about a projected by-pass to her village
51、, and, looking at a map, the route was nowhere near where she lived and it wasnt as if the area was attractive. I was more than puzzled, I was curious. The enquiry into the route of the new by-pass to the village was due to take place shortly, and I wanted to know what it was that motivated her. So
52、it was that I found myself knocking on a cottage door, being received by Mary Smith and then being taken for a walk to the woods. “Ive always loved this place,” she said, “it has a lot of memories for me, and for others. We all used it. They called it Lovers lane. Its not much of a lane, and it does
53、nt go anywhere important, but thats why we all came here. To be away from people, to be by ourselves. ” she added. It was indeed pleasant that day and the songs of many birds could be heard. Squirrels watched from the branches, quite bold in their movements, obviously few people passed this way and
54、they had nothing to fear. I could imagine the noise of vehicles passing through these peaceful woods when the by-pass was built, so I felt that she probably had something there but as I hold strong opinions about the needs of the community over-riding the opinions of private individuals, I said noth
55、ing. The village was quite a dangerous place because of the traffic especially for old people and children, their safety was more important to me than an old womans strange ideas. “Take this tree,” she said pausing after a short while. “To you it is just that, a tree. Not unlike many others here.” S
56、he gently touched the bark, “Look here, under this branch, what can you see?” “It looks as if someone has done a bit of carving with a knife.” I said after a cursory inspection. “Yes, thats what it is!” she said softly. She went on, “He had a penknife with a spike for getting stones from a horses ho
57、of, and I helped him to carve them. We were very much in love, but he was going away, and could not tell me what he was involved in the army. I had guessed of course. It was the last evening we ever spent together, because he went away the next day, back to his Unit.” Mary Smith was quiet for a whil
58、e, then she sobbed. “His mother showed me the telegram. Sergeant R Holmes Killed in action in the invasion of France.”“I had hoped that you and Robin would one day get married.” she said, “He was my only child, and I would have loved to be a Granny, they would have been such lovely babies- she was l
59、ike that! ”“Two years later she too was dead. Pneumonia (肺炎), following a chill on the chest was what the doctor said, but I think it was an old fashioned broken heart. A child would have helped both of us.” There was a further pause. Mary Smith gently caressed the wounded tree, just as she would ha
60、ve caressed him. “And now they want to take our tree away from me.” Another quiet sob, then she turned to me. “I was young and pretty then, I could have had anybody, I wasnt always the old woman you see here now. I had everything I wanted in life, a lovely man, health and a future to look forward to
61、.” She paused again and looked around. The breeze gently moved through the leaves with a sighing sound. “There were others, of course, but no one can match my Robin!” she said strongly. “And now I have nothing - except the memories this tree holds. If only I could get my hands on that awful man who
62、writes in the paper about the value of the road they are going to build where we are standing now, I would tell him. Has he never loved, has he never lived, does he not know anything about memories? We were not the only ones, you know, I still meet some who came here as Robin and I did. Yes, I would
63、 tell him!” I turned away, sick at heart.55. The main purpose of this passage is to _.A. draw attention to the damage that wars cause B. persuade people to give up private interestC. arouse the awareness of being environmentally friendlyD. introduce a touching but sad love story56. Which of the foll
64、owing words can best describe Mary Smith?A. Selfish. B. Faithful. C. Changeable. D. Stubborn.57. The underlined sentence “I felt that she probably had something there” means _.A. I thought there might be something hidden in the woods by Mary SmithB. I guessed there might be a story related with Mary
65、 SmithC. I thought there might be some reason for Mary Smiths protestD. I guessed there might be a secret purpose of Mary Smith.58. What was probably the carving on the wounded tree?A. The date when Robin Holmes would leave for army.B. Their wish that this place and tree would last long.C. Their nam
66、es and a heart with a sign of arrow through it.D. Their protest against the war which tore them apart.59. In Marys opinion, which of the following might have caused Robins mothers death?A. Pneumonia B. A chill on the chest C. A heart attackD. Severe sorrow60. The “tree” probably stands for _. A. her
