A small company called Genera Technologies has produced a testing method in three stages, which shows whether water is safe. The new test shows if

He and his employees have developed the test together with a British water company.Andy Headland, Generas marketing director, recently presented the test

9、 at a conference in the USA and forecast good American sales for it. Genera has already sold 11 of its tests at $42,500 a time in the UK and has a further four on order.

14、performed experiments on a kind of worm. They have managed to increase the worms normal life span of 20 days by up to 400%. They hope that they will be able to use this research to help humans live longer. However, this is a long way in the future. Another disadvantage is that when (or if) the new t

15、echnology is successfully developed, it will probably be very expensive. The chance to live longer will only be available to a very few, very rich people.3 Another group of scientists is studying people who have reached a very old age. They believe that this may show what has kept these people healt

16、hy and alive for so long. So, if we look at people who have lived into very old age, what do they have in common? Usually they have led a physically active life. This does not mean going to a gym or running ten miles every day. Simple, enjoyable activities like walking seem to be more likely to keep

17、 you healthy. Very old people also eat a good, varied diet. Simple foods like vegetable, rice, pasta and fish are the best.4 However, there may be one thing even more important than physical factors like diet and exercise. Research shows that personality, and the way a person thinks, play an importa

18、nt part in how long they will live. People who live into very old age always seem to enjoy life. They have a sense of humor and get satisfaction from simple things. They do not constantly think about the past, but are interested in the present and the future. They do not let life get boring, but hav

19、e interests and hobbies which keep their minds active and they are open to new ideas. One Japanese man who lived to be 120 commented that the secret of his long life was “not worrying“. To express it simply, people who are happy and positive about life are more likely to live longer.5 So, eat well,

20、exercise well, and enjoy life, and you will have a good chance of living to a healthy, happy old age.A How to live happy old ageB Disadvantages of the projectC The study of old peopleD Personality and other mental factors are more importantE Worms live longer than humansF Live simple lives（分数：4.00）(

23、四、第 4部分：阅读理解(总题数：0，分数：0.00)五、第一篇(总题数：1，分数：15.00)LanguageWhen one looks back upon the fifteen hundred years that are the life span of the English language, he should be able to notice a number of significant truths. The history of language is a history of constant change-at times a slow, almost imper

24、ceptible change, at other times a violent collision between two languages. Language a living growing organism, it has never been static. Another significant truth that emerges from such a study is that language at all times has been the possession not of one class or group but of many. At one extrem

25、e it has been the property of the common, ignorant folk, who have used it in the daily business of their living, much as they have used their animals or the kitchen pots and pans. At the other extreme it has been the treasure of those who have respected it as an instrument and a sign of civilization

26、 and who have struggled by writing it down to give it some permanence, order, dignity, and if possible, a little beauty.As we consider our changing language, we should note here two developments that are of special and immediate importance to us. One is that since the time of the Anglo-Saxons there

27、 has been an almost complete reversal of the different relationship of words in a sentence. Anglo-Saxon (old English) was a language of many inflections. Modern English has few inflections. We must now depend largely on word order and function words to convey the meanings that the older language did

28、 by means of changes in the forms of words. Function words, you should understand, are words such as prepositions, conjunctions, and a few others that are used primarily to show relationships among other words. A few inflections, however, have survived. And when some word inflections come into confl

29、ict with word order, there may be trouble for the users of the language, as we shall see later when we turn our attention to such maters as WHO or WHOM and ME or I. The second fact we must consider is that as language itself changes, our attitudes toward language forms change also. The eighteenth ce

30、ntury, for example, produced from various sources a tendency to fix the language into patterns not always set in and grew, until at the present time there is a strong tendency to restudy and re-evaluate language practices in terms of the ways in which people speak and write.（分数：15.00）(1).In contrast

31、 to the earlier linguists, modern linguists tend to _.（分数：3.00）A.attempt to continue the standardization of the languageB.evaluate language practices in terms of current speech rather than standards or proper patternsC.be more concerned about language than its analysis or historyD.be more aware of t

32、he rules of the language usage(2).Choose the appropriate meaning for the word “inflection“ used in line 4 of paragraph 2.（分数：3.00）A.Changes in the forms of words.B.Changes in sentence structures.C.Changes in spelling rules.D.Words that have similar meanings.(3).Which of the following statements is n

33、ot mentioned in the passage?（分数：3.00）A.It is generally believed that the year 1500 can be set as the beginning of the modern English language.B.Some other languages had great influence on the English language at some stages of its development.C.The English language has been and still in a state of r

34、elatively constant change.D.Many classes or groups have contributed to the development of the English languag(4).The author of these paragraphs is probably a (an) _.（分数：3.00）A.historianB.philosopherC.anthropologistD.linguist(5).Which of the following can be best used as the title of the passage?（分数：

35、3.00）A.The history of the English language.B.Our changing attitude towards the English language.C.Our changing language.D.Some characteristics of modern Englis六、第二篇(总题数：1，分数：15.00)CultureCulture is one of the most challenging elements of the international marketplace. This system of learned behavior

36、 patterns characteristic of the members of a shaped by a set of dynamic variables: language, religion, values and attitudes, manners and customs, aesthetics, technology, education, and social institutions. To cope with this system, an international manager needs both factual and interpretive knowled

37、ge of culture. To some extent, the factual knowledge can be learned; its interpretation comes only through experience.The most complicated problems in dealing with the cultural environment stem from the fact that one cannot learn culture one has to live it. Two schools of thought exist in the busine

38、ss world on how to deal with cultural diversity. One is that business is business the world around, following the model of Pepsi and McDonalds. In some cases, globalization is a fact of life; however, cultural differences are still far from converging.The other school proposes that companies must ta

39、ilor business approaches to individual cultures. Setting up policies and procedures in each country has been compared to an organ transplant; the critical question centers around acceptance or rejection. The major challenge to the international manager is to make sure that rejection is not a result

40、of cultural myopia or even blindness.Fortune examined the international performance of a dozen large companies that earn 20 percent or overseas. The internationally successful companies all share an important quality: patience. They have not rushed into situations but rather built their operations c

41、arefully by following the most basic business principles.

42、 necessary.C.Views differ on how to treat culture in business world.D.Most people do not know foreign culture well.(2).According to the author, the model of Pepsi _.（分数：3.00）A.is in line with the theories of the school advocating the business is business the world aroundB.is different from the model

46、cters of Leadvilles golden age were H. AW. Tabor and his second wife, Elizabeth McCourt, better known as “Baby Doe“. Their history is fast becoming one of the legends of the Old West. Horace Austin school teacher in Vermont. With his first wife and two children he left Vermont by covered wagon in 18

47、55 to homestead in Kansas. Perhaps he did not find farming to his liking, or perhaps he was lured by rumors of fortunes to be made in Colorado mines. At any rate, a few years later he moved west to the small Colorado mining camp known as California Gulch, which he later renamed Leadville when he bec

48、ame its leading citizen. “Great deposits of lead are sure to be found here.“ he said.As it turned out, it was silver, not lead, that was to make Leadvilles fortune and wealth. Tabor knew little about mining himself, so he opened a general store, which sold everything from boots to salt, flour, and t

49、obacco. It was his custom to “grubstake“ prospective miners, in other words, to supply them with food and supplies, or “grub“, while they looked for ore, in return for which he would get a share in the mine if one was discovered. He did this for a number of years, but no one that he aided ever found anything of value.Fina
