11、etter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the center. 15 Although Beethoven could sit down and make up music easily, his really great compositions did not come easily at all. They cost him a great deal of hard work. We know how often he rewrote and corrected his work because his notebooks
12、 are still kept in museums and libraries. He always found it hard to satisfy himself. When he was 28, the worst difficulty of all came to him. He began to notice a strange humming(嗡嗡声 ) in his ears. At first he paid little attention; but it grew worse, and at last he consulted doctors. (46) They gav
13、e him the worst news any musician could bear: he was gradually going deaf. Beethoven was in despair; he was sure that he was going to die. He went away to the country, to a place called Heiligenstadt, and from there he wrote a long farewell letter to his brothers. He longed to die, and said to death
14、, “Come when you will, I shall meet you bravely.“ In fact, Beethoven did something braver than dying. He gathered his courage and went on writing music, though he could not hear what he wrote. He wrote his best music, the music we remember him for, after he became deaf. The music he wrote was very d
15、ifferent from any that had been composed before. 16 To say that Beethoven was “in despair“ means that he_. （ A） was very frightened （ B） was unhappy （ C） had given up hope （ D） was dying 17 Beethoven knew that he was going deaf_. （ A） after he had consulted doctors （ B） when he could not hear himsel

The usual prob-lem is how to dispose of it. But th
19、e designers of the Johnstown campus of the University of Pittsburgh set themselves the opposite problem-how to collect body heat. They have de-signed a collection system which utilizes not only body heat, but also the heat given off by such objects as light bulbs and refrigerators as well. The syste
20、m works so well that no con-ventional fuel is needed to make the campuss six buildings comfortable. Some parts of most modern buildings-theaters and offices as well as classrooms-aremore than amply heated by people and lights and sometimes must be air-conditioned even in winter. The technique of sav
21、ing heat and redistributing it is called “heat recovery. “ A few modern buildings recover heat, but the Universitys system is the first to recover heat from some buildings and re-use it in others. Along the way, Pitt has learned a great deal about some of its heat producers. The harder a student stu
22、dies, the more heat his body gives off. Male students emit more heat than female students do, and the larger a student is, the more heat he produces. It is tempting to conclude that the hottest prospect for the Johnstown campus would be a hard-working, overweight male genius. 21 Until recently, body
23、 heat has caused problems because it _. （ A） was difficult to collect （ B） came in a variety of forms （ C） was difficult to get rid of （ D） tended to be absorbed by physical objects 22 Which of the following is true of the heating system of the Johnstown campus? （ A） The heat is supplied by human bo

27、n male who studies hard. 26 We arranged that Kissinger would fly to Vietnam for talks early in July and then stop in Pakistan on the way back. There he would develop a stomachache that would require him to stay in bed and not be seen by the press. Then, with President Yahyas cooperation he would be
28、taken to an airport where a Pakistani plane would fly him over the mountains to China. Kissingers trip was given the code(密码 ) name Polo after Marco Polo, another Western traveler who made history by journeying to China. Everything went without a hitch. His slight illness in Islamabad received only
29、minor attention from reporters covering him. They accepted the story that he would be confined to bed for at least a couple of days and began making arrangements for their own entertainment. Because of the need for complete secrecy and the lack of any direct communication facilities between Beijing
30、and Washington, I knew that we would have no word from Kissinger while he was in China. Even after he had returned to Pakistan it would still be important to maintain secrecy. So before Kissinger left, we agreed on a single code word Eureka which he would use if his mission were successful. On July
31、11, Al Haig, who knew our code word, phoned me to say that a cable from Kissinger had arrived. “Whats the message?“ I asked. “Eureka“, he replied. 26 Kissinger stopped in Pakistan because_. （ A） he happened to have a stomachache （ B） he needed a rest after a long journey （ C） he had a secret mission

34、because_. （ A） his trip had to be kept secret （ B） President Yahya did not go with Kissinger （ C） Communication between Beijing and Islamabad was difficult （ D） The negotiation(谈判 ) was not successful 30 The passage implies that Kissingers message “Eureka“ was sent_. （ A） when the negotiation starte
