The size of the area is sufficient to provide food for him, his (22) and their offspring. Migrating birds, for example, (23) up the
13、 best territory in the order of “first come, first (24) .“ The late arrivals may acquire (25) territories, but less food is available, or they are too close to the (26) of the enemies of the species. (27) there is really insufficient food or the danger is very great, the animal will not (28) . In th
14、is way, the members of the species which are less fit will not have offspring. When there is conflict (29) . territory, animals will commonly use force, or a (30) of force, to decide which will stay and which will go. It is interesting to note, however, that animals seem to use (31) the minimum amou
15、nt of force (32) to drive away the intruder. There is usually no killing. In the (33) of those animals which are capable of doing each other great harm, (34) is a system for the losing animal to show the winning animals that he (35) to submit. When he shows this, the (36) normally stops fighting. An
16、imals (especially birds) , which can easily escape from conflict seem to have (37) obstacle against killing, and equally no mechanism (38) submission. The losing bird simply flies away. However, if two doves are (39) in a cage, and they start fighting, they will continue to fight until one kills the
17、 other. We all think of the dove as a symbol of peace and, in its natural habitat, it is peaceful. But the “peace“ mechanism does not (40) in a cage. （ A） establishes （ B） builds （ C） founds （ D） erects （ A） wife （ B） mate （ C） friend （ D） neighbor （ A） split （ B） break （ C） cut （ D） divide （ A） use

Answer the questions below each passage b
21、y choosing A, B, C or D. Mark your answers on ANSWER SHEET 1. 41 Americas economic recovery remains uncomfortably weak. The latest data show industrial production falling while the trade deficit soars to record levels. To round off a dismal week for economic statistics, the Fed (美联储 ) announced that
22、 industrial production fell by 0.2% in December compared with the previous month. That came as a disappointment to economists who had been expecting a small rise. Monthly data are always unreliable, of course; there is always a plausible explanation for unexpectedly bad (or good) news. But nearly al
23、l recent economic statistics point to the same conclusion-that Americas recovery remains sluggish and erratic. It could put pressure on the Fed to consider cutting interest rates again when its policymaking committee meets at the end of the month. The biggest obstacle to healthier economic performan
24、ce, though, is political. As the Feds chairman, Alan Greenspan, acknowledged in the closing months of 2002, uncertainty about the future is holding both investors and consumers back. The shadowy threat of international terrorism and the much more explicit prospect of a war with Iraq have made many A
25、mericans nervous about the future. For businesses still reeling from the speed at which the late-1990s boom turned to slump, the political climate is one more reason to put off investing in new plant and equipment or hiring new staff. For consumers, for so long the mainstay of the American economy,
26、the thrill of the shopping mall seems, finally, to be on the wane. It is hard to put a favorable interpretation on most of the data. But it is important to keep a sense of perspective. Some recent figures look disappointing partly because they fall short of over-optimistic forecasts - a persistent w
27、eakness of those paid to predict the economic future, no matter how often they are proved wrong. The Fed will be watching carefully for further signs of weakness during the rest of the month. Mr. Greenspan is an avid, even obsessive, consumer of economic data. He has made it clear that the Fed stand
28、s ready to reduce interest rates again if it judges it necessary-even after 12 cuts in the past two years. At its last meeting, though, when it kept rates on hold, the Fed signaled that it did not expect to need to reduce rates any further. Monetary policy still offers the best short-term policy res
29、ponse to weak economic activity, and with inflation low the Fed still has scope for further relaxation. President Bushs much-vaunted fiscal stimulus is unlikely to provide appropriate help, and certainly not in a timely way. 41 Which of the following best describes the Americas economic situation? （
30、 A） It is recovering. （ B） It faces an uncertain future. （ C） It remains depressing. （ D） It shows unreliable signs. 42 What does the figure 0.2% in Paragraph 1 indicate? （ A） Americas economic recovery is still shaky. （ B） Economists are disappointed at the future economy. （ C） It is a bad sign for
31、 Americas economic recovery. （ D） The biggest obstacle to healthier economic performance is political. 43 What factor makes investors put off investing in new plant and equipment? （ A） The sluggish economic situation. （ B） The direct threat of international terrorism. （ C） The possibility of a war w
32、ith Iraq. （ D） Investors shortage of capital. 44 What is the authors attitude toward some recent figures mentioned in Paragraph 3? （ A） Optimistic. （ B） Skeptical. （ C） Worrisome. （ D） Critical. 45 How does monetary policy offer help for weak economic activity? （ A） It can stimulate investment in ne
33、w plant and equipment. （ B） It can reduce interest rates so as to stimulate weak economic activity. （ C） The Fed tries to keep inflation low. （ D） President Bush can offer appropriate monetary policy. 46 Gene therapy and gene-based drugs are two ways we could benefit from our growing mastery of gene
34、tic science. But there will be others as well. Here is one of the remarkable therapies on the cutting edge of genetic research that could make their way into mainstream medicine in the coming years. While its true that just about every cell in the body has the instructions to make a complete human,
35、most of those instructions are inactivated, and with good reason: the last thing you want for your brain cells is to start churning out stomach acid or your nose to turn into a kidney. The only time cells truly have the potential to turn into any and all body parts is very early in a pregnancy, when
36、 so-called stem cells havent begun to specialize. Yet this untapped potential could be a terrific boon to medicine. Most diseases involve the death of healthy cells-brain cells in Alzheimers, cardiac cells in heart disease, pancreatic cells in diabetes, to name a few. If doctors could isolate stem c
37、ells, then direct their growth, they might be able to furnish patients with healthy replacement tissue. It was incredibly difficult, but last fall scientists at the University of Wisconsin managed to isolate stem cells and get them to grow into neural, gut, muscle and bone cells. The process still c
38、ant be controlled, and may have unforeseen limitations. But if efforts to understand and master stem-cell development prove successful, doctors will have a therapeutic tool of incredible power. The same applies to cloning, which is really just the other side of the coin; true cloning, as first shown
39、 with the sheep Dolly two years ago, involves taking a developed cell and reactivating the genome within, resetting its developmental instructions to a pristine state. Once that happens, the rejuvenated cell can develop into a full-fledged animal, genetically identical to its parent. For agriculture
40、, in which purely physical characteristics like milk production in a cow or low fat in a hog have real market value, biological carbon copies could become routine within a few years. This past year scientists have done for mice and cows what Ian Wilmot did for Dolly, and other creatures are bound to
41、 join the cloned menagerie in the coming year. Human cloning, on the other hand, may be technically feasible but legally and emotionally more difficult. Still, one day it will happen. The ability to reset body cells to a pristine, undeveloped state could give doctors exactly the same advantages they
42、 would get from stem cells: the potential to make healthy body tissues of all sorts, and thus to cure disease. That could prove to be a true “miracle cure.“ 46 The author believes in the passage that _. （ A） there will inevitably be human cloning in the coming year （ B） the potential to make healthy
43、 body tissues is undoubtedly a boon to human beings （ C） it is illegal to clone any kind of creatures in the world （ D） it is legal to clone any kind of creatures in the world except human 47 Which of the following statements is NOT true according to the passage? （ A） Nearly every cell in the human
44、brain has the instructions to make a complete human. （ B） It is impossible for a cell in your nose to turn into a kidney. （ C） It is possible to turn out healthy replacement tissues with isolated stem cells. （ D） There will certainly appear some new kind of cloned animal in the near future. 48 All o
45、f the following are steps involved in true cloning EXCEPT _. （ A） selecting a stem cell （ B） taking a developed cell （ C） reactivating the genome within the developed cell （ D） resetting the developmental instructions in the cell to its original state 49 The word “rejuvenated“ (Paragraph 5) most pro
46、bably means _. （ A） rescued （ B） reactivated （ C） recalled （ D） regulated 50 The proper title for this passage should be _. （ A） Tomorrows Tissue Factory （ B） A Terrific Boon to Medicine （ C） Human Cloning （ D） Genetic Research 51 The question of ethics in the legal profession is one that has plague
47、d the industry since its inception. The common image of an attorney is one who will resort to any unethical trick to twist the laws to fit his purposes. In the more specific industry of criminal law, defense attorneys are often criticized for advocating on behalf of defendants who are “obviously gui
48、lty,“ thus becoming roadblocks on the path to justice. Much to the contrary, however, defense attorneys provide a valuable serve that should earn them praise, not scorn. While it is true that every lawyer will do everything within his power to interpret the laws in the manner most beneficial to his
49、client, such a characterization is by no means limited to defense attorneys. The prosecutor will do the same thing, employing all his legal knowledge and know-how to establish the guilt of the defendant. In this respect, the vague nature of the law is highlighted, and it becomes a virtual necessity for each side to use every tool at their disposal, on the assumption that the other side will also use every tool at his. The net result emerges as a
