8、nswer on the ANSWER SHEET with a single line through the center.（分数：10.00）_In Guangzhou, capital of South China“s Guangdong Province, Guangzhou Baiyun International Airport resumed its international flights to Singapore, Malaysia, Thailand, the Philippines and other Southeast Asian nations and regio
9、ns early this month, said an airport official yesterday. And the airport“s flow of international passengers for July has reached 80 per cent of the figure for the corresponding month of the previous year. Guangzhou Baiyun International Airport had to cancel some international services to Southeast A
10、sian nations and regions because of the outbreak of SARS beginning in April, the official said. The official predicted his airport“s international service would return to normal operation and handle even more international passengers in August. Currently, the Guangzhou airport is operating 22 intern
11、ational flights to 20 foreign metropolises. And nine foreign airlines have resumed their international flights to the airport.（分数：10.00）(1).In July Guangzhou Baiyun International Airport resumed its international service to _.（分数：2.00）A.the whole worldB.only four southeastern nationsC.the Southeast

Until recently, some of them sold tobacco only through government
16、 monopolies, with little or no attempt at persuasion. And because most of these countries don“t have effective anti-smoking campaigns, many of their people are surprisingly innocent of the link between tobacco and disease. In Manila, we even found cigarettes sold at a snack bar operated by the local
17、 Boy Scouts. Many governments, moreover, are reluctant to wage anti-smoking wars because they“re addicted to tobacco taxes. Argentina gets 22. 5 percent of all tax revenue from tobacco; Malawi, 16.7 percent. Into this climate of naivety and neglect, American tobacco companies have unleashed not only
18、 the marketing wizardry (魔术) that most of us take for granted, but other tactics they wouldn“t dare use here. Tobacco spokesmen insist that cigarette advertising draws only people who already smoke. But an ad executive, who worked until recently of the Philip Morris account, speaking on condition of
19、 anonymity, disagrees. “You don“t have to be a brain surgeon to figure out what“s going on. Just look at the ads. It“s ludicrous (荒唐的) for them to deny that a cartoon character like Joe Camel isn“t attractive to kids. “（分数：10.00）(1).People in developing countries are easily influenced by cigarette a

23、yB.fameC.hidden nameD.secret(5).Which of the following is the best title of the passage?（分数：2.00）A.Smoking and Tobacco TaxesB.Smoking in Developing CountriesC.Smoking and Cigarette AdvertisingD.Tobacco IndustrySome pessimistic experts feel that the automobile is bound to fall into disuse. They see a
24、 day in the not-mo-distant future when all autos will be abandoned and allowed to rust. Other authorities, however, think the auto is here to stay. They hold that the car will remain a leading means of travel in the foreseeable future. The motorcar will undoubtedly change significantly over the next
25、 30 years. It should become smaller, safer, and more economical, and should not be powered by the gasoline engine. The car of the future should be far more pollution-free than present types. Regardless of its power source, the auto in the future will still be the main problem in urban traffic conges
26、tion(拥挤). One proposed solution to this problem is the automated highway system. When the auto enters the highway system, a retractable(可伸缩的) arm will drop from the auto and make contact with a rail, which is similar to those powering subway trains electrically. Once attached to the rail, the car wi
27、ll become electrically powered from the system, and control of the vehicle will pass to a central computer. The computer will then monitor all of the car“s movements. The driver will use a telephone to dial instructions about his destination into the system. The computer will calculate the best rout
28、e, and reserve space for the car all the way to the correct exit from the highway. The driver will then be free to relax and wak for the buzzer(蜂鸣器) that will warn of his coming exit. It is estimated that an automated highway will be able to handle 10,000 vehicles per hour, compared with the 1,400 t
29、o 2,000 vehicles that can be carried by a present-day highway.（分数：10.00）(1).One significant improvement in the future car may probably be _.（分数：2.00）A.its power sourceB.its driving systemC.its monitoring systemD.its seating capacity(2).What is the author“s main concern?（分数：2.00）A.How to render autom
30、obiles pollution-free?B.How to make smaller and safer automobiles?C.How to solve the problem of traffic jams?D.How to develop an automated subway system?(3).What provides autos with electric power in an automated highway system?（分数：2.00）A.A rail.B.An engine.C.A retractable arm.D.A computer controlle

Musicat and Beautiful Youth 18 were formed last year. Both feature now familiar formulas of attractive young women playing different instruments in songs th

In an interview, noted music critic Jin Zhaojun said the gift band phenomenon was not new to China, as similar acts appeared in the 1980s. However, the undying rule is that to b
34、e successful, bands have to have a novel look. “The 12 Girls Band was the first group to give big live shows and showy creativity in how they present their performances. The Beijing Red Poppy Ladies Percussion group, formed in 1999, has made a name for itself because they are the only band that excl
