27、s. 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 center. 30 At the Kyoto conference on global warming in December 1997, it became abundantly clear how complex it has become to work out internatio

28、nal agreements relating to the environment because of economic concerns unique to each country. It is no longer enough to try to forbid certain activities or to reduce emissions of certain substances. The global challenge of the interlink between the environment and development increasingly bring us

29、 to the core of the economic life of states. During the late 1980s we were able, through international agreements, to make deep cuts in emissions harmful to the ozone layer (臭氧层 ). These reductions were made possible because substitutions had been found for many of the harmful chemicals and, more im

30、portant, because the harmful substances could be replaced without negative effects on employment and the economies of states. Although the threat of global warming has been known to the world for decades and all countries and leaders agree that we need to deal with the problem, we also know that the

31、 effects of measures, especially harsh measures taken in some countries, would be nullified (抵消 ) if other countries do not control their emissions. Whereas the UN team on climate change has found that the emissions of carbon dioxide would have to be cut globally by 60% to stabilize the content of C

32、O2 in the atmosphere, this path is not feasible for several reasons. Such deep cuts would cause a breakdown of the world economy. Important and populous (人口众多的 ) low- or medium-income countries are not yet willing to undertake legal commitments about their energy uses. In addition, the state of worl

33、d technology would not yet permit us to make such a big leap. We must, however, find a solution to the threat of global warming early in the 21st century. Such a commitment would require a degree, of shared vision and common responsibilities new to humanity. Success lies in the force of imaginations

34、, in imaging what would happen if we fail to act. Although many living in cold regions would welcome the global-warming effect of a warmer summer, few would cheer the arrival of the subsequent tropical diseases, especially where there had been none. 31 The main purpose of this passage is to_. （ A） c

35、onvince people that global warming is a real threat （ B） criticize some countries for refusing to cut down emissions harmful to the ozone layer （ C） analyze the problem of global warming （ D） argue against making deep cuts in emissions 32 The reason why it is difficult to get rid of the threat of gl

36、obal warming is that_. （ A） the leaders of many countries are not fully aware of the gravity of the problem （ B） world technology is not able to solve the problem （ C） not all the countries are willing to make deep cuts in emissions （ D） many people welcome the global-warming effect of a warmer summ

37、er 33 In the passage the author implies that_. （ A） it is always difficult to work out international agreements to cut down emissions harmful to the ozone layer （ B） it is no longer easy to reach international agreements relating to the environment （ C） the world has recently become aware of the thr

38、eat of global warming （ D） the problem of global warming has largely been solved 34 According to the author, it is impossible at present to cut 60% of carbon dioxide emissions globally because_. （ A） it is only a goal to be reached in the future （ B） some people are lacking in imagination （ C） some

39、people are irresponsible （ D） it would cause a collapse of the world economy 35 What should all countries do to help solve the problem of global warming? （ A） They should replace all the harmful substances. （ B） They should willingly undertake legal commitments about their energy uses. （ C） They sho

40、uld hold another world conference on climate change. （ D） They should provide advanced technology. 35 Imagine going to your doctor with a complaint of frequent headaches. Your doctor takes a prescription pad and writes a word on it. The word isnt “aspirin“, its “Mozart“. Many kinds of music can stir

41、 the imagination and produce strong feeling. For some people, romantic composers such as Chopin and Tchaikovsky enhance feelings of love and compassion. Religious and spiritual music can help some people feel peace or lessen their pain. But one musician seems to have a unique ability to heal the hum

42、an bodyMozart. Scientists have found Mozarts music to be remarkable in its ability to calm its listeners. It can also increase their perception, and help them express themselves more clearly. Many amazing cases have been documented using Mozart as a healing aid. For example, a tiny premature baby (早

43、产婴儿 ) named Krissy, who weighed just 1. 5 pound at birth, was on total life support. Doctors thought she had little chance of survival. Her mother insisted on playing Mozart for Krissy, and thinks it saved her daughters life. Krissy lived, but she was very small for her age and slower than the avera

44、ge child. At the age of four, she showed an interest in music and her parents gave her violin lessons. To their astonishment, Krissy was able to play musical pieces from memory that were far beyond the ability of an average four-year-old. Playing music helped her improve in all areas of her life. Ot

45、her stories have emerged about the effect of Mozarts music. Officials in Washington State report that new arrivals from Asia learn English more quickly when they listen to Mozart. In Edmonton, Alberta, Canada, Mozart string quartets (弦乐四重奏 ) in city squares seem to calm pedestrian traffic. Even anim

46、als and seemingly inanimate objects respond to Mozart. In France, cows serenaded (对 唱 /奏小夜曲 ) with Mozart give more milk, and in Japan, the yeast used to make sake (日本清酒 ) is ten times better when it “listens“ to Mozart. Why Mozart, rather than Bach or the Beatles? Any kind of music can have an effe

47、ct on some people. But Mozart has more balance. It isnt too fast or too slow; its just right. Don Campbell, who wrote a book called The Mozart Effect, says, “Its like food. A hot spicy meal will affect you differently than a sweet dessert. And while you might love these foods, they arent good for yo

48、u to eat every day. You need simple, nutritious food on a steady basis. Thats the way Mozart is. Its like a nutritionally balanced meal that brings order and harmony to your body. “ 36 This passage is mainly about_. （ A） the influence of music on peoples mood （ B） the miracle effect of Mozarts music

49、 on people （ C） the difference between Mozart and other musicians （ D） the similarity between music and food 37 The author uses the case of Krissy to illustrate that_. （ A） premature baby can survive and grow normally （ B） antenatal training (胎教 ) is important for babys mental development （ C） music can help a person improve in all areas of his/her life （ D） Mozarts music has a good healing e
