16、inhabit this planet. The limited amount of land and land resources will soon be unable to support the huge population if it continues to grow at its present rate.So why is this huge increase in population taking place? It is really due to the spread of the knowledge and practice of what is becoming

17、known as “Death Control“. You have no doubt heard of the term “Birth Control“. “Death Control“ is something rather different. It recognizes the work of the doctors and scientists who now keep alive people who, not very long ago, would have died of a variety of then incurable diseases. Through a wide

18、 variety of technological innovations that include farming methods and the control of deadly diseases, we have found ways to reduce the rate at which we die. However, this success is the very cause of the greatest threat to mankind.If we examine the amount of land available for this ever-increasing

19、population, we begin to see the problem. If everyone on the planet had an equal share of land, we would each have about 50,000 square meters. This figure seems to be quite encouraging until we examine the amount of usable land we actually have. More than three-fifths of the worlds land cannot produc

20、e food.Obviously, with so little land to support us, we should be taking great care not to reduce it further. But we are not! Instead, we are consuming its “capital“ its nonrenewable fossil fuels and other mineral deposits that took millions of years to form but which are now being destroyed in deca

21、des. We are also doing the same with other vital resources not usually thought of as being nonrenewable such as fertile soils, groundwater and the millions of other species that share the earth with us.It is a very common belief that the problems of the population explosion are caused mainly by poor

22、 people living in poor countries who do not know enough to limit their reproduction. This is not true. The actual number of people in an area is not as important as the effect they have on nature. Developing countries do have an effect on their environment, but it is the populations of richer countr

23、ies that have a far greater impact on the earth as a whole.（分数：15.00）(1).According to the article, what contributes to the population increase?（分数：3.00）A.Birth explosion.B.Birth Control.C.Technological innovations.D.Death Control.(2).The word “incurable“ in Paragraph 2 means_.（分数：3.00）A.commonB.epid

25、that fertile soils are_.（分数：3.00）A.limitedB.renewableC.nonrenewableD.productive(5).What does “to limit their reproduction“ in the last paragraph mean?（分数：3.00）A.To control death.B.To produce less goods.C.To practice birth control.D.To increas六、第二篇(总题数：1，分数：15.00)How to Start a Small Business in the

26、USPeople from other countries often take America as the “land of opportunity“. Americans, too, believe that the country gives no end of chances to those who want to open their own businesses. Today, many Americans are still trying hard to become small business people, although only one out of two re

27、mains in operation after the first two years.Many people start their small businesses for the wrong reasons. They want to get away from the paper work of their present jobs or to exchange the responsibility of their present jobs for free life styles. But more, not less, paper work and responsibility

28、 come with ownership of a small business.Thomas is the owner of the news magazine Mother Earth, which is now quite successful. He says that he had to work sixty hours without stopping when he was trying to bring out the first issue.Thomas had waited for years after he came up with the idea for Mothe

29、r Earth. During that time, he collected as much information as he could about his business. He borrowed books from the library, talked to successful people in the field, and began planning carefully the amount of money and the kinds and numbers of supplies he would need. When he finally opened with

30、a capital of $1,500, he set up his office in the kitchen and his printing press in the garage. Owing to his devotion to business, his talent, and his skill in management, Mother Earth now has a circulation of 300,000.Not all small businesses are doing as fine as Mother Earth. 50% of the 450,000 that

31、 start in America every year fail. Still, 95% businesses in the US can be called “small“.

They go shopping all day and go dancing all night. Or maybe they go sightseeing to places such as Disneyland, the Tai Mahan or the L

36、ouver.Some people are bored with sightseeing trips. They dont want to be “tourists“. They want to have an adventure, to learn something and maybe help people too. How can they do this? Some travel companies and environmental groups are planning special adventures. Sometimes these trips are difficult

37、 and full of hardships, but theyre a lot of fun. One organization, Earth Watch, sends small groups of volunteers to different parts of the world.

40、 be exciting to learn about these intelligent animals. Another study trip goes to Washington State and follows orcas. We call them “Killer Whale“, but theyre really dolphins- the largest kind of dolphin. This beautiful animal travels together in family groups. They move through the ocean with their

41、mothers, grandmothers and great-grandmothers. Ocean pollution is chasing their lives. Earth Watch is studying how this happens.Are you interested in history? Then Greece is the place for your adventure. Thirty-five hundred years ago a volcano exploded there, on Santorum. This explosion was more terr

42、ible than Karate or Mount Saint Helens. But today we know a lot about the way of life of the people from that time. There are houses, kitchens, and paintings as interesting as those in Pompeii. Today teams of volunteers are learning more about people from the past.Do you want a very different vacati

And no more mobile phone transmitter towers should be build until the long-term health effects of the electromag

47、netic (电磁的) radiation they emit is scientifically evaluated, he said. “Nobodys going to drop dead overnight but we should be asking for more scientific information, “ Robert Bell said at a conference on the health effects of low-level radiation. (46) .A report widely circulated (传播) among the public
