Read each passage carefully, and then do the questions that follow.Passage OneThe best things in life are free, and that includes air and water. Swimming and breathing

34、usually dont cost anything, but neither does throwing away garbage. Since dumping pollution into the environment costs nothing, everybody does it, even though he may wish that he and everyone else would stop doing it. Clean air and water have not been recognized by the market as limited resources th

35、at can only absorb so much junk before they start spitting it backexactly what had started happening by the early 1960s. The solution is to put a price on the use of these limited resources and stop classifying them as “free“. Protection of air and water have to be brought into the market system. Ve

36、ry early on, then, the problem was properly diagnosed.But that was exactly the problem. The dilemma we faced was just that: how do you put a price on clean airor at least on the act of fouling it while disposing of societys wastes? Yet in there reluctance to perceive their concern as one of mere eco

37、nomics, environmentalists rejected this approach. It failed to match the religiosity of their cause. Instead, they supported a highly centralized, bureaucratic system based on difficult goals, detailed regulatory prescriptions, and awe-inspiring penalties for noncompliance.The way the Clean Air Act

38、of 1970 affected industry has more or less passed into legend. It is not that it did not produce results. Air pollution has declined in many areas, and has increased in only a few. The real question is the costs that were incurred in the process.The major problem with the Clear Air Act is that it la

39、ys the burden of costs only on the people who make the effort to clean up. (The large fines were intended mainly as a threat, and are rarely imposed.) No one has yet put a price on using clean air as a dumping ground. The only standards for deciding who cleans up and who doesnt are the necessarily a

40、rbitrary decisions arrived at by the state environmental agencies. Each industry, therefore, has every incentive to spend years in litigation trying to prove that it is someone elses pollution that is at fault.（分数：5.00）(1).In the first paragraph, the problem was properly diagnosed. What was the diag

41、nosis then? A. The best things in life are free. B. Dumping pollution into the environment costs nothing, so everybody does it. C. Clean air and water have not been recognized by the market as limited resources. D. A price should be put on the use of limited resources like clean air and water.（分数：1.

A. unwillingness B. ignorance C. imagination D. effort（分数：1.00）A.B.C.D.(4).According to

43、 the passage, why was Clean Air Act of 1970 impotent against industries? A. Because the procedure for filling a litigation was too complex. B. Because the fines of large amount are rarely imposed. C. Because most people still perceived clean air as being free. D. Because the act only charged those w

44、ho made efforts to clean up.（分数：1.00）A.B.C.D.(5).What would be a good title for this passage? A. Our Polluted Country B. How We Can Stop the Spread of Pollution C. Road to Clean Air Act and Its Problems D. Protections Made on Clean Air and Water（分数：1.00）A.B.C.D.Passage TwoAdolf Hitler was the ruler

45、of Germany from 1933 to 1945. Guided by concepts of elitism and racism, he established a brutal totalitarian regime under the ideological banner of National Socialism, or Nazism. His drive for empire Line resulted in the devastation of World War II, culminating in Germanys defeat and the reordering

46、of world power relationships. Hitler failed as a student in the classical secondary schools, a situation that contributed to his desire to become an artist. He went to Vienna in 1907 but was unable to gain admission to the Academy of Fine Arts. He lived a shadowy, alienated existence in multiracial

47、Vienna until 1913. His years were characterized by melancholy, aimlessness, and racial hatredin Vienna he developed his lifelong obsession with the danger that world Jewry posed to the Aryan race.Hitlers rise to power paralleled the unstable course of the Weimar Republic, which replaced the fallen Hohenzollern monarchy(
