14、ter./BBPassage One/BDollars and cents are the basic units of American money. The back of all dollar bills are green (hence “greenbacks“). The commonly used coins are: one cent (penny), five cents (nickel), 10 cents (dime), and 25 cents (quarter). 50 pieces (half dollar) and silver dollars (not reall
15、y silver anymore) are gaining in usage, while there has been talk of phasing out the penny thats inflation for you. “Always carry plenty of quarters when travelling. Very useful for phones, soda machines, laundry machines, etc.“There is generally no problem in using US dollars in Canada, but this is
16、 never possible in reverse. Its useful always to carry small change for things like exact fare buses, but do not carry large sums of cash. Instead keep the bulk of your money in travellers cheques which can be purchased both in the US and abroad and should be in dollar denominations. The best known
17、cheques are those of American Express, so you will have the least difficulty cashing these, even in out of the way places. Thomas Cook travellers cheques are also acceptable, especially as lost ones can be reclaimed at some car rental companies. Dollar denomination cheques can be used like regular m
18、oney. Theres no need to cash them at a bank: use them instead to pay for meals, supermarket purchases or whatever. Ten or twenty dollar cheques are accepted like this almost always and youll be given change just as though youd presented the cashier with dollar bills. Be prepared to show ID when you
19、cash your cheques.Credit cards can be even more valuable than travellers cheques, as they are often used to guaraniee room reservations over the phone and are accepted in lieu of deposit when renting a carindeed without a credit card you may be considered so untrustworthy that not only a deposit but
20、 your passport will be held as security too. The major credit cards are VISA, Master Charge and Access, Diners Club and American Express. If you hold a bank card, it could well be worthwhile to increase your credit limit for travel purposesyou should ask your bank manager.（分数：12.00）(1).Why is it use

There are several important islands in the Indian Ocean. These include Madagascar, the largest one, which is near Africa, and Sri Lanka, whic

30、ther side. What makes one of these bits of paper worth any money at all? What makes a ten-fen stamp worth ten fen?When you buy a stamp, you also buy service from the post office. You get the letter sent by post. After the stamp has done its work, the post office says it is worthless. You must buy a
31、new one for each letter you send.But people often pay money for stamps that have already been used. Stamp collectors have fun just trying to collect as many different kinds as possible. Certain kinds are hard to find. To get one of these uncommon stamps, some collectors are willing to pay a great de
32、al of money. They think it is worth something, and that gives it value. If you collect stamps because they are especially beautiful or tell an interesting story or show all kinds of animals, then those are the ones that have value to you.（分数：12.00）(1).When you post a letter, you must buy _ .（分数：3.00

35、ps can be worth a lot of money.D.A stamp, when used, is worth more than a new one.BPassage Four/BDesign of all the new tools and implements is based on careful experiments with electronic instruments. First, a human “guinea pig“ is tested using a regular tool. Measurements are taken of the amount Of
36、 work done, and the buildup of heat in the body. Twisted joints and stretched muscles can not perform as well, it has been found, as joints and muscles in their normal positions. The same person is then tested again, using a tool designed according to the suggestions made by Dr. Tichauer. All these
37、tests have shown the great improvement of the new designs over the old.One of the electronic instruments used by Dr. Tichauer, the myograph (肌动记器), makes visible through electrical signals the work done by human muscle.Another machine measures any dangerous features of tools, thus proving informatio
38、n upon which to base a new design. One conclusion of tests made with this machine is that a tripod (三脚架) stepladder is more stable and safer to use than one with four legs.This work has attracted the attention of efficiency experts and time-and-motion-study engineer, but its value goes far beyond th
39、at. Dr. Tichauers first thought is for the health of the tool user. With the repeated use of the same tool all day long on production lines and in other jobs, even light manual work can put a heavy stress on one small area of the body. In time, such stress can cause a disabling disease. Furthermore,
40、 muscle fatigue is a serious safety hazard.Efficiency is the by-product of comfort, Dr. Tichauer believes, and his new designs for traditional tools have proved his point.（分数：12.00）(1).From the passage we know that joints and muscles perform best when _ .（分数：3.00）A.they are twisted and stretchedB.th
41、ey are in their normal positionsC.they are tested with a human “guinea pig“D.they are tested with electronic instruments(2).A “myograph“ (Para. 2, Line 1) is an electronic instrument that _ .（分数：3.00）A.is able to design new toolsB.measures the amount of energy usedC.enables people to see the muscula
42、r movementsD.visualizes electrical signals(3).It can be inferred from the passage that _ .（分数：3.00）A.a stepladder used to have four legs.B.it is dangerous to use toolsC.a tripod is safer in a tool designD.workers are safer on production lines(4).Dr. Tichauer started his experiments initially to _ .（
43、分数：3.00）A.improve efficiencyB.increase productionC.reduce workloadD.improve comfortBPassage Five/BWhich of your two hands do you use much better? Very few of us can use both of our hands equally well. Most of us are right-handed. Only about five people out of a hundred are left-handed. Newborn babie
44、s can grasp objects with either of their hands, but in about two years they usually prefer to use their right hands.Scientists dont know why this happens. They used to think that we inherited this tendency from our animal ancestors, but this may not be true. Monkeys are our closest relatives in the
45、animal world. Scientists have found that monkeys prefer to use one of their hands more than the other, but it can be either hand. There are as many right-handed monkeys as there are left-handed ones. Next time you visit the zoo, watch the monkeys carefully. Youll see that some of them will prefer to
46、 swing from their right hands, and others will use their left hands. But most human beings use their right hands better, and this makes life difficult for those who prefer to use their left hands.（分数：12.00）(1).Most of us use our right hands _ the left ones.（分数：3.00）A.as well asB.not so well asC.much
47、 better thanD.more better than(2).The number of right-handed monkey is _ the left-handed ones.（分数：3.00）A.greater than that ofB.smaller than that ofC.as much as that ofD.equal to that of(3).Which of the following is true? _（分数：3.00）A.When a child is two years old, he prefers to use both of his hands
48、to grasp objects.B.Scientists have given the reason for this tendency.C.A monkey can use both of his hands equally well.D.Those who prefer to use their left hands live a difficult life.(4).The best title of the passage is _ .（分数：3.00）A.Newborn babies can use both hands wellB.Most human beings use their right hands betterC.Few human beings use their left handsD.We live in a right-handed world五、B Daily Convers(总题数：1，分数：15.00)BDirections: Pick out appropriate expressions from the eight choices below an
