Part II Reading Comprehension (35minutes, 40 points)

Directions: There are 4 passages in this part. Each of the passages is followed by 5 questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are 4 choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the best one and mark your answer on the ANSWER SHEET with a single line through the centre.

Passage One

England is not a big country: from north to south and from east to west it is only about three hundred miles across. But for a small country it has a surprising range of climate. People who have never visited England, or who have visited only one part of it, often make .the mistake of thinking that it is a cold and wet country. Except for the summer months of June to September, this is probably true of the north of England and the Midlands. In the south, however, the climate is much more pleasant. One result is that when people retire from a job in the north they often prefer to move down to the milder south Perhaps the warmest part of the country is the southwest, which consists of the counties of Devon and Cornwall. The warm Gulf Stream flows across the North Atlantic Ocean from the Gulf of Mexico and makes the coastal regions of the southwest quite warm. Palm trees, bamboo (竹)and many semi-tropical ( 亞熱帶的 ) plants grow well in the southwest of England. Flowers and vegetables ripen(成熟) as much as a month earlier than those elsewhere. Farmers in the area obtain a higher price for their vegetables and flowers because they are ready eartier. In winter there may be several feet of snow in other parts of England but there will probably be no snow at all in the southwest. This may be one of the reasons why the southwest is one of England’s most popular holiday areas.

11. The distance from the centre of England to the south coast is about__________.

A. one hundred miles

B. three hundred miles

C. one hundred and fifty miles

D. six hundred miles

Passage Two

How can we get rid of garbage? Do we have enough energy sources to meet our future energy needs?

These are two important questions that many people are asking today. Some people think that man might be able to solve both problems at the same time. They suggest using garbage as an crier-gy source, and at the same time it can save the land to hold garbage.

For a long time, people buried garbage or dumped (傾倒) it on empty land. Now, empty land is scarce. But more and more garbage is produced each year. However, garbage can be a good fuel to use. The things in garbage do not look like coal, petroleum, or natural gas; but they are chemically similar to these fossil(化石) fuels. As we use up our fossil fuel supplies, we might be able to use garbage as an energy source.

Burning garbage is not a new idea. Some cities in Europe and the United States have been burning garbage for years. The heat that is produced by burning garbage is used to boil water. The steam that is produced is used to make electricity or to heat nearby buildings. In Pads, France , some power plants burn almost 2 million metric tons of the cities garbage each year. The amount of energy produced is about the same as would be produced by burning almost a half million barrels of oil.

Our fossil fuel supplies are limited. Burning garbage might be one kind of energy source that we can use to help meet our energy needs. This method could also reduce the amount of garbage piling up on the earth.

16. What two problems can man solve by burning garbage?

A. The shortage of energy and air pollution.

B. The shortage of energy and the land to hold garbage.

C. Air pollution and the shortage of fossil fuel.

D. Air pollution and the shortage of land to hold garbage.

17. Which of the following is not the result of burning garbage?

A. The garbage burned is turned into fossil fuels.

B. The heat produced is used to boil water.

C. The steam produced is used to make electricity.

D. The steam produced is used to heat buildings.

18. According to the passage which of the following is NOT true?

A. About 2 million metric tons of garbage is burned in some power plants in Paris, France each year.

B. In a modern society, more and more garbage is produced each year.

C. Using garbage is a good way to solve the problem of energy shortage.

D. it will be too expensive to use garbage as an energy source.

19. What is the author’s attitude ?

A. Delighted.

B. Sad.

C. Agreeing.

D. Disagreeing.

20. The best title for the passage may be__________.

A. Garbage and the Earth

B. Fossil Fuel and Garbage

C. Land and Garbage

D. Garbage Energy Source

Passage Three

Passage Four

Extensive new studies suggest that the world has made extraordinary progress in reducing poverty in recent decades. The research suggests that the pace of economic progress has been rapid and continued for decades, built on the foundations of relative political stability, rising trade, and economic liberalization( 自由化) after two world wars. One new study, published recently by the Institute for International Economics in Washington, find that the proportion of the 6.1 billion people in the world who live on $1 a day or less shrank from 63 percent in 1950 to 35 percent in 1955 and 12 percent in 1999. By some other measures, the progress has been more modest. Still, economists agree that poverty has plunged in key nations such as India and especially China, thanks, to slowing population growth as well as economic freedom. "This is a huge success for the world as .a whole," says Harvard University economist Richard Cooper. "We are doing something right. "

The news comes as the World Bank is about to open its annual meeting in Washington--an e-vent that has been troubled in recent years by protests that the Bank and its sister Institution, the International Monetary Fund(IMF國際貨幣組織), have done too little for the world’s poor. The new economic research will not put an end to that: dispute. Vast populations remain poor, and many still question the wisdom of World Bank policies. Nonetheless, the research findings are helpful.

to understand what policies, should be followed by those institutions and hundreds of other development groups working very hard to hasten the pace of world economic progress, if dramatic gains are under way, the present policies-calling for open markets, free business activities, and tight monetary control are working and correct.

But critics of IMF and World Bank policies maintain that such economic success stories as Ja-pan, China, South Korea and Singapore are rooted in more than just "free" markets. These nations have managed to grow rapidly, and thereby reduce poverty, by limiting imports when their domes-tic industries were young, pushing exports to rich nations, and putting controls on purely intema-tional financial flows. The have been open to foreign-owned factories but have often insisted that those investors share the knowledge and skill on modern technologies.

26. The word "plunged" in the first paragraph means__________.

A. decreased

B. climbed

C. increased

D. dropped into water

27. From the passage, we learn that__________.

A. World Bank has done nothing to help the poor in the world

B. IMF only helps the rich in the world

C. World Bank controls all the banks in the world

D. There are some demonstrations against World Bank in recent years

28. According to this passage, in __________ , the world had the largest number of poor people.

A. 1999

B. 1955

C. 1950

D. 1990

29. According to the author, the economy of East Asian countries grew very fast because of the following measures EXCEPT__________.

A. encouraging export

B. opening up to foreign investments

C. limiting international financial flows

A Friend to Remember

Sophia was one of my best friends in college. She was a tall girl with big eyes and short hair.

Her family was poor because her father died when she was still a child. In spite of this, she was very optimistic and never lost heart. She struck people as a strong-minded and self-confident girl.

And that was why I admired her a lot. One of her favorite quotations was "tomorrow is another day" and she always encouraged herself with Scarlett’s spirit when she was faced with difficulties.

We had a lot in common. We both liked singing, reading and shopping. Singing songs together with her was a lot of fun. I enjoyed my college life very much with her company. Now she is working in another city, and we hardly have any chance to see each other. However, she will always be my best friend.
