It includes all【C2】_and services produced by citizens of the country【C3】_in the world. Recently the American Commerce De

24、）A.continuesB.stopsC.keepsD.seems Part36.Part ADirections: Read the following four texts. Answer the questions below each text by choosing A, B, C or D.（分数：10.00）_Although the total percentage of daily smokers is falling in most countries, a new international study shows that six people die every mi
25、nute from smoking. That equals 3 million deaths around the world every year. If the present rate of smoking continues, the number of deaths each year from smoking could rise to 10 million by the year 2020. The study describes smoking as the biggest cause to deadly diseases among grown-ups in industr
26、ial countries. So far most of the smoking deaths have happened on men, especially in developing countries. A researcher at the World Health Organization says 70% of the Chinese men smoke more than 15 cigarettes each day. In Latin America about 50% of the men are smokers. There are also a very large
27、number of smokers in the former Soviet Union and in the east Europe. And 25% of all smoking deaths worldwide are in those areas of the world. Scientists say smoking will kill 50% of the smokers. Smoking is known to cause lung cancer. It also can lead to cancer of the mouth and other parts of bodies.
28、 Smokers are more likely than nonsmokers to suffer from heart disease. Experts say that people reduce their chance of dying from smoking if they stop smoking completely. They say smokers who give up smoking can improve their health. In most Western European countries the percentage of daily smoker i
29、s falling, and far more men than women are quitting smoking. In Sweden and the Netherlands the percentage of male smokers has been cut nearly in half in the past thirty years. In Norway about one third of the adult population smokes daily, a percentage that has fallen slightly. In 1980 this percenta
30、ge was about 36, in 1990 it had fallen to 35 and in 1999 it was 32. There is no longer any difference between men“ s and women“ s smoking habits.（分数：10.00）(1).The best title for the passage would be_.（分数：2.00）A.Do Give Up SmokingB.Smoking Causes Lung CancerC.Smoking Does Harm to HealthD.Man Likes Sm
31、oking Much More Than Woman(2).According to the text, if there are one hundred male Chinese smokers in the room, as a result, the number of cigarettes that they smoke a day is at least_.（分数：2.00）A.15000B.5000C.750D.1050(3).It can be inferred from the text that if people don“ t stop smoking, they will
32、_.（分数：2.00）A.pollute the airB.waste a lot of moneyC.become stupidD.be in poor health(4).Which of the following statement is True?（分数：2.00）A.Smoking is the biggest cause to deadly diseases among grown-upsB.Now more men than women are smokingC.The number of smokers in east Europe is much bigger than t
33、hat in Latin AmericaD.About one second of the Latin American men are nonsmokers.(5).The tone of the passage is_.（分数：2.00）A.objectiveB.optimisticC.pessimisticD.emotionalThe world economy has run into a brick wall. Despite countless warnings in recent years about the need to address a potential hunger
34、 crisis in poor countries and an energy crisis world-wide, world leaders failed to think ahead. The result is a global food crisis. Wheat, corn and rice prices have more than doubled in the past two years. And oil prices have increased more than three times since the start of 2004. These food-price
35、increases, combined with increasing energy costs, will slow if not stop economic growth in many parts of the world and will even affect political stability. Practical solutions to these problems do exist, but we“ 11 have to start thinking ahead and acting globally. Here are three steps to ease the c
36、urrent food crisis and avoid the potential for a global crisis. The first is to promote the dramatic success of Malawi, a country in southern Africa, which three years ago established a special fund to help its fanners get fertilizer and seeds with high productivity(产量). Malawi“ s harvest doubled af
37、ter just one year. An international fund based on the Malawi model would cost a mere $ 10 per person annually in the rich world, or $ 10 billion altogether. Second, the U. S. and Europe should abandon their policies of paying partly for the change of food into bio-fuels. The U. S. government gives f
38、armers a taxpayer-financed payment of 51 cents per gallon of ethanol(乙醇)changed from corn. There may be a case for bio-fuels produced on lands that do not produce foodstree crops, grasses and wood productsbut there“ s no case for the government to pay to put the world“ s dinner into the gas tank. Th
39、ird, we urgently need to weatherproof the world“ s crops as soon and as effectively as possible. For a poor farmer, sometimes something as simple as a farm pondwhich collects rainwater to be used in dry weathercan make the difference between a good harvest and a bad one. The World has already commit
40、ted to establishing a Climate Adaptation Fund to help poor regions climate-proof vital economic activities such as food production and health care buthas not yet acted upon the promise.（分数：10.00）(1).Aninternational fund base on the Malawi model, would_.（分数：2.00）A.cost each of the developed countries
41、 $ 10 billion per yearB.aim to double the harvest in southern African countries in a yearC.decrease the food prices as well as the energy pricesD.give poor farmers access to fertilizer and highly productive seeds(2).With the second step, the author expresses the idea that_.（分数：2.00）A.it is not wise
42、to change food crops into gasB.it is misleading to put tree crops into the gas tankC.we should get alternative forms of fuel in any wayD.bio-fuels should be developed on a large scale.(3).Which of the following is true according to the passage?（分数：2.00）A.A rain-collecting pond is a simple safeguard
43、against dry regions.B.A climate Adaptation Fund has been established to help poor regions.C.The world has made a serious promise to build farm pondsD.It makes a great difference whether we develop wood products or not(4).In the passage, the author calls on us to_.（分数：2.00）A.slow down but not to stop
44、 economic growthB.develop tree crops, grasses and wood productsC.achieve economic growth and political stabilityD.act now so as to relieve the global food shortage.(5).“case“ in paragraph 3 probably means_.（分数：2.00）A.exampleB.factC.problemD.reasonWe can achieve knowledge either actively or passively
45、. We achieve it actively by direct experience , by testing and proving an idea, or by reasoning. We achieve knowledge passivelyby being told by someone else. Most of the learning that takes place in the classroom and the kind that happens when we watch TV or read newspapers or magazines is passive,
46、conditioned as we are to passive learning, it is not surprising that we depend on it in our everyday communication with friends and co-workers. Unfortunately, passive learning has a serious problem, It makes us tend to accept what we are told even when it is little more than hearsay and rumor. Did y
47、ou ever play the game Rumor? It begins when one person writes down a message but doesn“ t show it to anyone. Then the person whispers it, word for word, to another person. That person , in turn, whispers it to still another and so on, through all the people playing the game. The last person writes d
48、own the message word for word as he or she hears it. Then the two written statements are compared. Typically, the original message has changed. That“ s what happens in daily life. The simple fact that people repeat a story in their own words changes the story. Then, too, most people listen imperfectly. And many enjoy adding their own creative touch to a story, trying to improve on it, stamping it with their own personal style. Yet those who hear it think they know. This process is als
