13、)Directions: There are three passages in this part. Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. You should decide on the best choice and mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through
14、 the center.15 We all know that it is possible for ordinary people to make their homes on the equator (道), although often they may feel uncomfortably hot there. Millions do it. But as for the North Pole (北极)we know that it is not only a dangerously cold place, but that people like you and I would fi
15、nd it quite impossible to live there. At the present time only the scientists and explorers can do so, and they use special equipment. (76) Men have been travelling across and around the equator on wheels, on their feet or in ships for thousands of years; but only a few men, with great difficulty an
16、d in very recent time, have ever crossed the ice to the North Pole. So it may surprise you to learn that, when traveling by air, it is really safer to fly over the North Pole than over the equator. Of course, it is not true about landings in the polar region, but the weather, if we are flying at a h
17、eight of 5,000 meters above the Pole is a delight. At 4,000 meters and move above the earth you can always be sure that you will not see a cloud in the sky as far as your eyes can reach. In the tropics (热带), on the other hand, you are not certain to keep clear of bad weather even at such heights as
18、18,000 or 20,000 meters. Aeroplanes cant climb as high or as quickly in cold air as in warm. Nor can clouds. (77) In practice, this is an advantage to the aeroplane, which is already at a good height when it reaches the polar region and so does not to climb，while at the same time cold air keeps the
19、clouds down low.16 “Millions do it. “ in this sentence “do it“ refers to（A）feeling uncomfortably hot on the equator（B） flying over the North Pole（C） flying over the equator（D）making homes on the equator17 The polar region is _（A）a good place to land at by aeroplane（B） a good place to fly over（C） a g

21、arm air（B） in cold air（C） when it reaches the polar region（D）only when the clouds are down low _20 Aeroplanes usually do not need to climb quickly or fly high in the polar region because _.（A）they do not land there（B） there are no clouds at all（C） they can cross the ice with special equipment（D）it i
22、s very cold20 Trees are useful to man in three important ways: they provide him with wood and other products; they give him shade; and they help to prevent droughts and floods. Unfortunately, in many parts of the world, man has not realized that the third of these services is the most important. (78
23、) In his eagerness to make money from trees, he has cut them down in large numbers, only to find that without them he has lost the best friends he had. And besides, he is usually too careless to plant and look after new trees. So the forests slowly disappear. This does not only mean that man will ha
24、ve fewer trees. The results are even more serious: for where there are trees, their roots break up soil-allowing the rain to sink in-and also bind the soil, thus preventing it from being washed away easily; but where there are no trees, the rain falls oh hard ground and flows away, causing floods an
25、d carrying away the rich top-soil. When all the top-soil is gone, nothing remains but worthless desert. Two thousand years ago a rich and powerful country cut down its trees to build warships, with which to gain itself an empire. It set up the empire but, without its trees, its soil became poor and
26、it grew weak. When the empire fell to pieces; the home country found itself faced with floods and starvation.21 What is the most important service of trees to man according to the passage?（A）They help him make money.（B） They give him wood and other products.（C） They help him prevent droughts and flo
27、ods.（D）They give him shade.22 Why do forests in many parts of the world slowly disappear?（A）New trees are not looked after properly.（B） Many trees have been cut down by man.（C） Man has not paid enough attention to planting trees.（D）All of the above.23 Why did the country mentioned in the passage suf
28、fer from floods and starvation?（A）Because an empire was set up.（B） Because the empire fell to pieces.（C） Because it lost its trees.（D）Because too much had been spent on wars.24 Why does land become desert after all trees are cut down?（A）Because nothing remains on land except floods.（B） Because there
29、 are no longer trees to keep the rain and protect the top-soil.（C） Because too much rain sinks in and washes away the top-soil.（D）Because roots of the trees break up the soil.25 What does the author tell us in this passage?（A）How trees help prevent droughts and floods.（B） The relationship between tr
30、ees and man.（C） How an empire fell to pieces in ancient times.（D）A story of trees.25 Birth, marriage and death: these are the greatest events in human life. Many things, good and bad, can happen to us in our lives. (79) Yet there are three days which are usually marked by some kind of special ceremo
31、ny: the day we are born; the day we get married and the day we die. These are the three main events in life. We only have a choice in the second of these: we can choose whether or not to marry. But we have no choice in birth and death. All human beings from the most primitive to the most sophisticat
32、ed-are affected by these three events. The only thing that differs in each society is the way these events are celebrated. Yet all societies share common characteristics. Birth is a time of joy. The proud parents receive congratulations and presents on behalf of the new-born. Marriage is also a time
33、 of joy. The young couple go through a special wedding ceremony and receive presents to help them set up their home. (80) Death is a time of sorrow and is marked by a special ceremony and mourning. The date6 of all three events are usually remembered. 26 All human societies（A）celebrate the three mai
