15、corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet.30 The cost of medical care in the United States is very high. The time and money that doctors spend on their medical education are probably one reason for this problem.A visit to a doctors office costs from fifteen to fifty dollars. It is impossible to pay f

16、or the medical care they need. Many people in the United States think that doctors are overpaid. Most doctors, however, disagree. They say that they were required to study medicine for a long time. Tuition(学费)for many years of medical education costs a lot of money. Doctors say that it is necessary

17、for most medical students to borrow money from a bank to pay their tuition. Because this money must be repaid to the bank, young doctors need a lot of money for their work. So, they charge people high prices for medical care. Therefore it is possible that the high cost of medical care in America is

18、unnecessary. Because high tuition is one cause of high costs, one way to lower costs would be to have medical schools that are free or have low tuition.31 Some people do not have their medical care they need because _.（A）they are not willing to pay high tuition for the doctors（B） they dont think it

19、necessary to have medical care（C） they dont want to spend much money on it（D）they havent got enough money to pay for it 32 The reason for the high medical cost mentioned in the article is that _.（A）tuition in medical schools is high（B） the price of medicine is high（C） doctors are overpaid（D）doctors

22、or the high cost of medical care in the U. S. 34 A greenhouse is a building made of glass which is used for keeping plants warm when the outside temperature is how. In a similar way there are several gases in the atmosphere which trap(捕捉 ) the heat produced by the sun and prevent it from escaping. T

23、hese gases are known as“ greenhouse gases“, and the way in which they trap heat in the atmosphere is called the “greenhouse effect“. This is not simply air pollution. Most of the main greenhouse gases exist naturally in small amounts in our atmosphere. And without them earth would be 30 degrees cold

24、er and human life would not exist. In other words, the greenhouse effect is a natural course which is to some degree helpful to us.The problem is that in the last century and a half, we have been putting too many of these gases into the earths atmosphere by burning large quantities of coal and oil a

25、nd by cutting down forests. The rapid increase in greenhouse gases is making the world warmer. Tile worlds temperature has already gone up by half a degree this century, and the sea level has risen by 10 centimetres. If the amount of carbon dioxide(二氧化碳) in the atmosphere doubles, there will probabl

26、y be a rise in the earths temperature of between 1 and 4 degrees. This may seem a small increase, but it would be enough to cause major changes in geography and agriculture. Large areas of the world would be flooded, and some areas would become dry and unable to produce crops. It is important, too,

27、to consider that there may be a delay of about 30 years in the greenhouse effect. This means that were probably experiencing only now the effect of the gases put into the atmosphere before the 1960s. Since then, our use of these gases has greatly increased.35 “Greenhouse effect“ means _.（A）the way i

28、n which gases are used for keeping plants warm（B） a natural course which is to some degree helpful to us（C） the way“ greenhouse gases trap heat on the earth（D）the whole course in which greenhouse gases prevent heat 36 If there were no greenhouse effect, _.（A）no plants would grow on our planet（B） ear

29、th would be thirty degrees colder（C） man could not live on the earth（D）all of the above answers are correct 37 Which of the following is NOT true?（A）Burning too much coal and oil produces lots of greenhouse gases.（B） It has become warmer on the earth now than in the past.（C） Gases put into the atmos

30、phere now will affect the earth years later.（D）The temperature in a greenhouse is as high as that in the atmosphere. 38 Suppose the earths temperature rose by 3 degrees, _.（A）great harm would be done to mankind（B） the sea level would go by 10 centimetres（C） all the land in the world would be flooded

31、（D）crops would be unable to grow on the earth 38 The Ford family came from Ireland to the United States in 1847. Their child Henry was born in 1863. He had an interest in mechanics. He invented a car called the quadricycle which had four wheels. It essentially (实质上 ) had four bicycle tires and no ca

32、b (司机室 ).Henry built race cars in the 1890s and even became a race car driver. But he wanted to build cars for everyone: to use, so he began the Ford Motor Company in 1903. He had formulated (制定) a business motto which would be the reason for his success. “The way to make automobiles is to make one

33、automobile like another automobile, to make them all alike.“ His company declared that they could make automobiles in any color, as long as it was black.Henry gave much credit to his wife whom he called “The Believer“. From the earliest days of their relationship she was the one who encouraged him t

34、o build a horseless carriage. Her belief in him was a constant encouragement to produce what would become tile primary mode of transportation in the future.Henrys greatest task was to produce a gasoline engine that would be the power for his car. He finally produced so many hours each day that his f

35、riends called him crazy Henry. tie was inspired to work until his invention would work effectively.When he designed the Model T, he decided he could build it cheaply for what he called “the great multitude(批量).“ To do this he had to design an assemble line where many cars could be bilt in a single d

36、ay. Each worker would have only his individual parts to put on each car. Then he could limit himself to the few tools needed for the task.The Model T was introduced in 1908 and began to be produced on an assembly line in 1913. Henry Ford was the major figure in the auto industry for the next fifteen

37、 years.On May 26, 1927, Henry watched the 15 millionth Model T Ford roll off the assembly tine. He had become the richest man in America. He was able to bring the price low enough so that most Americans could buy his car. This gave every family much independence, for they could move about freely wit

38、hout the aid of others transporting them.Because he did not change his Model T, others began experimenting with different types of cars. However, the Ford Motor Company still exists and all car owners are indebted (受惠于) to the creation of the automobile by Henry Ford.39 To make cars, Henry first of

39、all needed _.（A）his wifes encouragement（B） a lot of money to buy equipment（C） engineers and technicians（D）to produce a gasoline engine that would be the power for his car 40 Henry Ford gave much credit to his wife for his car-making business because _.（A）he called her “The Believer“（B） her belief in

40、 him was a constant encouragement（C） from the earliest days of their relationship, she always encouraged her husband to build a horseless carriage（D）she often reminded her husband that the way to make automobiles is to make them all alike 41 An assembly line is _.（A）a production line where each work

41、er does only a small part of work to complete a product（B） a house where many cars could be built in a single day（C） a place where Henry could limit himself to the few tools for the task（D）a workshop where the Model T was first produced in 1913 42 Henry Ford brought great benefit to car owners becau

43、ficult to make ends meet anyway. Almost everyone is wondering,“ What happens to all my money? I never seem to have anything left to put away.“Why isnt dollar worth as much as it used to be? One dollar is always worth the same amount, that is, 100 cents. But the value of a dollar is how much it can b

44、uy. The value of money depends on the cost of living. Economists say that the cost of living is the money that a family must pay for the necessities of life such as food, housing or rent, clothes, and medical expenses. For many years now, the cost of living has increased greatly, so the value of the

45、 dollar has decreased. When a dollar has a low value, you cannot buy as many things with it.No one fully understands why the cost of living keeps increasing, but economists believe that workers and producers can make prices go up. As workers earn more money, they have more money to spend, so they de

46、mand more goods. If there is a great demand for certain goods, the prices of these goods go up. At the same time, if theres a shortage of goods, the prices also go up. For example, if everyone wants to buy more and more gas, the price of gas goes up. When companies withhold gas from buyers, they can

47、 also make the price of gas go up.Families need to know what happens to their money. They need to make their income meet the cost of living, so many people plan a family budget (预算). A budget is a list of monthly expenses. If your expenses add up to more than your income, you must find ways to save

48、money. Maybe youre spending too much on entertainment. Or if youre spending too much on clothes, you may want to sew your own clothes. Budgeting helps you spend your money wisely as the cost of living increases.43 What has troubled many families in the United States?（A）A not-large-enough income.（B）

49、Nothing is left over to put away.（C） The increasing cost of living.（D）A shortage of certain goods. 44 _ determines the value of the dollar.（A）The government（B） The cost of living（C） The economist（D）The bank 45 Why does the cost of living keep increasing?（A）Because are always shortages of goods.（B） Because the workers are getting lower and lower pay.（C） Becau
