17、se the best one and mark the corresponding letter with a single bar across the square brackets on your machine-scoring ANSWER SHEET. 20 Brazil has become one of the developing worlds great successes at reducing population growth but more by accident than design.While countries such as India have mad

18、e joint efforts to reduce birth rates, Brazil has had better result without really trying, says George Martine at Harvard. Brazils population growth rate has dropped from 2.99% a year between 1951 and 1960 to 1.93% a year between 1981 and 1990, and Brazilian women now have only 2.7 children on avera

19、ge.Martine says this figure may have fallen still further since 1990, an achievement that makes it the envy of many other Third World countries. Martine puts it down to, among other things, soap operas (通俗电视连续剧 ) and instalment (分期付款 ) plans introduced in the 1970s.Both played an important, although

20、 indirect, role in lowering the birth rate.Brazil is one of the worlds biggest producers of soap operas.Globo, Brazils most popular television network, shows three hours of soaps six nights a week, while three others show at least one hour a night.Most soaps are based on wealthy characters living th

21、e high life in big cities. “Although they have never really tried to work in a message towards the problems of reproduction, they describe middle and upper class values not many children, different attitudes towards sex, women working,“ says Martine.“They sent this image to all parts of Brazil and m

22、ade people conscious of other patterns of behavior and other values, which were put into a very attractive package.“ Meanwhile, the instalment plans tried to encourage the poor to become consumers.“This led to an enormous change in consumption patterns and consumption was incompatible (不相容的 ) with u

23、nlimited reproduction.“ says Martine. 21 According to the passage, Brazil has cut back its population growth_. （ A） by educating its citizens （ B） by careful family planning （ C） by developing TV programmes （ D） by chance 22 According to the passage, many Third World countries_. （ A） havent attached

24、 much importance to birth control （ B） would soon join Brazil in controlling their birth rate （ C） havent yet found an effective measure to control their population （ D） neglected the role of TV plays in family planning 23 The phrase “puts it down to“ (Line 1, Para.3) is closest in meaning to “_“ .

In the ancient world, as is today, most bo

26、ys played with some kinds of toys and most girls with another.In societies where social roles are rigidly determined, boys pattern their play after the activities of their fathers and girls after the tasks of their mothers.This is true because boys and girls are being prepared, even in play, to step

27、 into the roles and responsibilities of the adult world. What is remarkable about the history of toys is not so much how they changed over the centuries but how much they have remained the same.The changes have been mostly in terms of craftsmanship, mechanics, and technology.It is the universality o

28、f toys with regard to their development in all part of the world and their persistence to the present that is amazing.In Egypt, the Americas, China, Japan and among the Arctic (北极的 ) peoples, generally the same kinds of toys appeared.Variations depended on local customs and ways of life because toys

29、 imitate their surroundings.Nearly every civilization had dolls, little weapons, toy soldiers, tiny animals and vehicles. Because toys can be generally regarded as a kind of art form, they have not been subject to technological leaps that characterize inventions for adult use.The progress from the w

30、heel to the oxcart to the automobile is a direct line of ascent (进步 ).The progress from a rattle (拨浪鼓 ) used by a baby in 3000 BC to one used by an infant today, however, is not characterized by inventiveness.Each rattle is the product of the artistic tastes of the times and subject to the limitatio

31、ns of available materials. 24 The reason why the toys most boys play with are different from those that girls play with is that_. （ A） their social roles are rigidly determined （ B） most boys would like to follow their fathers professions （ C） boys like to play with their fathers while girls with th

32、eir mothers （ D） they like challenging activities 25 One aspect of “the universality of toys“ lies in the fact that_. （ A） technological advances have greatly improved the durability of toys （ B） the improvement of craftsmanship in making toys depends on the efforts of universities （ C） the explorat

33、ion of the universe has led to the creation of new kinds of toys （ D） the basic characteristics of toys are the same the world over 26 Which of the following is the authors view on the historical development of toys? （ A） The craftsmanship in toy-making has remained essentially unchanged. （ B） Toys

34、have remained basically the same all through the centuries. （ C） The toy industry has witnessed great leaps in technology in recent years. （ D） Toys are playing an increasingly important role in shaping a childs character. 27 Regarded as a kind of art form, toys_. （ A） follow a direct line of ascent

36、gress of technology （ C） it often takes a long time to introduce new technology into toy-making （ D） even a simple toy can mirror the artistic tastes of the time 28 The biggest safety threat facing airlines today may not be a terrorist with a gun, but the man with the portable computer in business c

37、lass.In the last 15 years, pilots have reported well over 100 incidents that could have been caused by electromagnetic interference.The source of this interference remains unconfirmed, but increasingly, experts are pointing the blame at portable electronic devices such as portable computers, radio a

38、nd cassette players and mobile telephones. RTCA,an organization which advises the aviation (航空 ) industry, has recommended that all airlines ban (禁止 ) such devices from being used during “critical“ stages of light, particularly take-off and landing.Some experts have gone further, calling for a total

39、 ban during all flights.Currently, rules on using these devices are left up to individual airlines.And although some airlines prohibit passengers from using such equipment during take-off and landing, most are reluctant to enforce a total ban, given that many passengers want to work during flights.

40、The difficulty is predicting how electromagnetic fields might affect an aircrafts computers.Experts know that portable devices emit radiation which affects those wavelengths which aircraft use for navigation and communication.But, because they have not been able to reproduce these effects in a labor

41、atory, they have no way of knowing whether the interference might be dangerous or not. The fact that aircraft may be vulnerable (易受损的 ) to interference raises the risk that terrorists may use radio system in order to damage navigation equipment.As worrying, though, is the passenger who cant hear the

42、 instructions to turn off his radio because the musics too loud. 29 The passage is mainly about_. （ A） a new regulation for all airlines （ B） the defects of electronic devices （ C） a possible cause of aircraft crashes （ D） effective safety measures for air flight 30 What is said about the over 100 a

43、ircraft incidents in the past 15 years? （ A） They may have been caused by the damage to the radio systems. （ B） They may have taken place during take-off and landing. （ C） They were proved to have been caused by the passengers portable computers. （ D） They were suspected to have resulted from electr

44、omagnetic interference. 31 Few airlines want to impose a total ban on their passengers using electronic devices because_. （ A） they dont believe there is such a danger as radio interference （ B） the harmful effect of electromagnetic interference is yet to be proved （ C） most passengers refuse to tak

45、e a plane which bans the use of radio and cassette players （ D） they have other effective safety measures to fall back on 32 Why is it difficult to predict the possible effects of electromagnetic fields on an airplanes computers? （ A） Because it is extremely dangerous to conduct such a research on a

46、n airplane. （ B） Because it remains a mystery what wavelengths are liable to be interfered with. （ C） Because research scientists have not been able to produce the same effects in labs. （ D） Because experts lack adequate equipment to do such a research. 33 It can be inferred from the passage that th

47、e author_. （ A） is in favor of prohibiting passengers use of electronic devices completely （ B） has overestimated the danger of electromagnetic interference （ C） hasnt formed his own opinion on this problem （ D） regards it as unreasonable to exercise a total ban during flight 34 The best title for t

48、his article is_. （ A） Harm of electromagnetic interference to airlines （ B） How to control electromagnetic field in airline （ C） Which is more dangerous, terrorist or electromagnetic interfere （ D） Measure to secure airline 34 The rise of multinational corporations (跨国公司 ), global marketing, new com

49、munications technologies, and shrinking cultural differences have led to an unparalleled increase in global public relations or PR. Surprisingly, since modern PR was largely an American invention, the U.S.leadership in public relations is being threatened by PR efforts in other countries.Ten years ago, for example, the worlds top five public relations agencies were American-owned.In 1991, only one was.The B
