For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. You should decide on the best choice and mark the

11、 corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the center.15 Trees are useful to man in three very important ways, they provide him with wood and other products; they give him shade; and they help to prevent droughts (干旱) and floods.Unfortunately, man has not realized that the

12、third of these services is the most important. Two thousand years ago a rich and powerful country cut down its trees to build warships, with which to gain itself an empire. It gained the empire, but, without its trees, its soil became hard and poor. When the empire fell to pieces, the home-country f

13、ound itself faced by flood and starvation.Even though a government realizes the importance of a plentiful supply of trees, it is difficult for it to persuade villagers to see this. The villagers want wood to cook their food with; and they can earn money by selling wood. They are usually too lazy to

14、plant and look after the trees. So, unless the government has a good system of control, or can educate the people, the forests will slowly disappear.This does not only mean that the villagers children and grandchildren will have fewer trees. The results are even more serious, for where there are tre

15、es their roots break the soil up allowing the rain to sink inand also bind the soil, thus preventing its being washed away easily but where there are no trees, the rain falls on hard ground and flows away from the surface, causing flood.16 What is the most important function of trees?（A）Providing fu

16、el.（B） Offering shade.（C） Preventing natural disaster.（D）Providing wood.17 What eventually happened to the empire in the second paragraph?（A）Its people died of hunger.（B） It fell to pieces.（C） It became a giant empire.（D）It built many ships with wood.18 It is implied in the passage that the villager

17、s_.（A）want a plentiful supply of trees（B） want firewood badly（C） just want to get money（D）dont realize the importance of trees19 The role of trees is to_.（A）loosen soil（B） keep soil in position（C） harden soil（D）both A and B20 What is the passage mainly concerned with?（A）The benefits of trees.（B） Tre

18、es and soil protection.（C） The various uses of trees.（D）Different attitudes toward trees.20 For well over 2000 years the worlds great religions have taught the virtues of a trusting heart. Now there is another reason to merit the wisdom of the ages: scientific evidence indicates that those with trus

19、ting hearts will live longer, healthier lives. As a result of the work published in the 1970s by two pioneering heart specialists, Meyer Friedman and Ray H. Rosenman, nearly every American is aware that blood Type A people are impatient, and easily moved to hostility (敌意) and anger. (79) Many have c

20、ome to believe that Type As are at a much higher risk of suffering heart attack or dying of heart disease than others. The driving force behind hostility is a cynical mistrust of others. If we expect others to mistreat us, we are seldom disappointed. This generates anger and leads us to respond with

21、 hostility. (80) The most characteristic attitude of a cynic is being suspicious of the motives (动机) of people he doesnt know. Imagine you are waiting for an elevator and it stops two floors above for longer than usual. How inconsiderate! You think. In a few seconds, you have drawn hostile conclusio

22、n about unseen people and their motives. Meanwhile, your cynical mistrust is leading to noticeable physical consequences. Your voice rises. The rate and depth of your breathing increases. Your heart is beating faster and harder, and the muscles of your arms and legs become tight. You feel “charged u

23、p“, ready for action. If you frequently experience these feelings, you may be at increased risk of developing serious health problems. Anger can add to the risk of heart and other diseases. 21 A cynic, in the passage, is a person_.（A）whose behavior usually leads to serious health problems（B） who is

24、always ready to fight（C） who usually has doubts about the people around him（D）whose behavior usually seems strange to the people he knows22 According to the passage, if you have a fixed idea in mind that people will mistreat you, you will always find it_.（A）to be wrong（B） to be so（C） to be disappoin

25、ting（D）to be pleasing23 The authors intention in writing the passage is to_.（A）praise the wisdom of the old people（B） advise people to be patient（C） analyze the danger of heart diseases（D）persuade people to be trustful24 According to the author, people with trusting hearts are_.（A）not likely to be m

26、istreated by others（B） less likely to get heart diseases（C） usually intelligent and wise（D）usually very religious25 The book by Meyer Friedman and Ray H. Rosenman most probably discusses_.（A）peoples characters and their blood types（B） friendliness and hostility（C） trust and mistrust of people（D）hear

27、t diseases and death rate25 Its interesting that the arrival of snow has the effect on people in different countries. (76) For some countries it is an important happening to celebrate each year, while for others a catastrophe (灾害) or even a wonder. But there are countries between these two lands tha

28、t normally expect snow some time over the winter months, but never receive snow regularly or in the same quantities every year. Britain is one of them, for which the arrival of snow quite simply creates problems. Within hours of the first snowfalls, however light, roads are blocked; trains and buses

29、 have to stop in the middle of the way. Normal communications are affected as well: telephone calls become difficult and the post immediately takes more time than usual. And almost within hours there are also certain shortagesbread, vegetables and other thingsnot because all these things can no long

30、er be produced or sent to shops, but mainly because people are frightened and go out and store up with food and so on. . . just for fear that something bad should happen. But why does snow have this effect? After all, the Swiss, the Austrians and the Canadians dont have such problems. It is simply b

31、ecause there is not enough planning and preparation. We need money to buy equipment to deal with snow and ice. To keep the roads clear, for example, requires snow-ploughs (扫雪机 ) and machines to spread salt. (77) The reason why a country like Britain does not buy snow-ploughs is that they are only us

32、ed for a few days in any one year, and the money could be more useful in other things such as hospitals, education, helping the old, and soon. 26 According to the writer, Britain is a country_.（A）which has regular snow（B） which is not well prepared for snow（C） for which snow is a catastrophe（D）for w
