Now man covets the we
24、alth of the oceans, which cover nearly three-quarters of the earth. But the scramble for minerals and oil, for new underwater empires, could heighten international tensions and set a new and wider stage for world conflict.Even the most conservative estimates of sources in the seabed stagger the imag
25、ination. In the millions of miles of ocean that touch a hundred nations live four out of five living things on earth. In the seabed, minerals and oil have been proved to exist in great supply. The oceans are a source of pure water and food protein, of drugs and building materials; they are even poss
26、ibly a living place for man himself and a key to survival for doubling population on the land.Man may yet learn to use a tiny fraction of this wealth. Unless international law soon determines how it shall be shared, that fraction alone could set off a new age of colonial war. Is the deep seabed, lik
27、e the high seas, common to all? Or, like the wilderness areas of land, is it open to national claim by the use and occupation of the first or the strongest pioneer? The question of what is to be done to regulate and control exploitation of the seabeds is no longer a theoretical matter. It is a probl
28、em of international concern. We must decide how to divide this great wealth equitably among nations. But wealth is not the only thing at stake. We must also learn how to protect the oceans from the threat of pollution.A few years ago, “practical“ men dismissed speculations about wealth in the sea. “
29、That is economic foolishness,“ they said. It will never be economically profitable to exploit the seabeds, no matter how great the riches to be found there. Unfortunately, they underestimated the temptation of gold as the mother of invention.（分数：10.00）(1).The word “covets“( Line 1, Para1) can be rep
30、laced by _.（分数：2.00）A.exploitsB.damagesC.desiresD.destroys(2).Which of the following statements can best summarize the main idea of the second paragraph?（分数：2.00）A.The oceans contain rich resources.B.The resources of the oceans should be protected.C.Most living things on earth can be found in the oc
31、eans.D.The oceans can serve as a solution to the serious problem of population.(3).The third paragraph seems to suggest that _.（分数：2.00）A.the scramble for the wealth in the oceans may lead to world conflictB.the wealth in the oceans belong to the strongest nationsC.the wealth of the oceans should be
32、 exploited by all nationsD.the deep seabed looks very much like the wilderness of the land(4).The word “that“ in “That is economic foolishness“ in the fourth paragraph refers to _.（分数：2.00）A.the wealth in the seaB.the exploitation of the seabedsC.the impractical manD.the sea(5).The last sentence of
33、the text implies that _.（分数：2.00）A.gold urges people to make new inventionsB.money is the most important thing in the worldC.people have tried to exploit the seaD.people did not get much from the sea八、Text 2(总题数：1，分数：10.00)In 1789 the US government passed a law which said that the land of the Americ
34、an Indians could never be taken from them without their agreement. One hundred years later, however, the Indians had only a very small part of the lanai that originally belonged to them.

37、rom 100 000 to 30 000.More land was needed for the increasing number of white settlers. In Washington, the old respect for the rights of the Indians disappeared. The old promises to the Indians were broken; the federal government began to move groups of Indians from their original homelands to other
38、, poorer parts of the country. Some Indians reacted angrily and violently to this treatment, They began to attack white settlers, and the Indian Wars began. For thirty years, until the late 1880s, different groups of Indians fought against the injustices of the white man. They had a few famous succe
39、sses, but the result of the struggle was never in doubt. There were too many white soldiers, and they were too powerful. Many Indians were killed; the survivors were moved from their homelands to different areas of the country. It was a terrible chapter in the history of a country that promised free

Perhaps thats why surveys are such an important part of American life. For many years, politicians, businesspeople, and scholars h
47、ave used surveys to find out more about that mysterious and complicated creature, the human being.American newspapers and magazines have been taking public opinion polls since the 1800s. In the 1930s, poll experts such as Elmo Poper and George Gallup began using scientific methods to select and inte
48、rview participants in political surveys. Since the 1940s, American businesspeople have been developing, naming, packaging, and promoting products with the help of surveys.

49、ogists have asked people about everything from their religious beliefs to their sexual behavior.
