13、 Reading ComprehensionDirections: In this part there are four passages. Each passage is followed by a number of comprehension questions. Read the passages and choose the best answer to each question. Then, mark your answer by blackening the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet.30 Young people wh
14、o drink or use drugs are mainly influenced by both their parents and peer pressure.Other reasons they take that first drink are to be rebellious(反抗的), for curiosity or “kicks“ (刺激)or to escape an unpleasant environment; And young people drink use drugs because alcohol(酒精) and drugs are at hand.After
15、 first experimental use, young people continue to drink or use drugs because they believe these substances can relieve boredom, increase energy, decrease anxiety, solve problems, or help them socially. They may simply like the “high“ they get in the early and middle stages of substance use. After co
16、ntinued use, they will become physically and psychologically(心理地)addicted(上瘾的).Now that we have admitted that we have to solve this problem, we must decide how to deal with this challenge. Winning this will take a great effort involving local, state, and national government. It will require the effo
17、rt of schools, but it cannot be clone by schools alone. It will also require family and community involvement. Already a great amount of time, energy and expert knowledge has been directed toward dealing with it but the problem continues.31 Which of the following is not mentioned as the reason of yo
18、ung pedples drinking and usingdrugs in the passage?（A）The selling of alcohol and drugs,（B） Pressure from their parents and relatives.（C） Curiosity.（D）Their eagerness to experience what ,is not permissible to them. 32 The word “high“ means_.（A）large amount（B） drunk（C） seriousness（D）the top 33 Continu

20、tional governments（C） Families and community（D）All of the above 34 There was a big pile of bricks on the top of a tall building and a man had to bring them down to the ground. He had a long rope which went over a pulley(滑轮) at the roof of the building. The other end was fastened to a big box.First h
21、e pulled the box up to the top of the building, and fastened the end of the rope so that the box could not come down. Then he climbed up the ladder and filled the box with bricks. Next he climbed down the ladder and untied the rope. Unfortunately the box of bricks was heavier than the man, and as a
22、result he was pulled up by the: rope. Half-way up, the box of bricks hit him as it was coming down.When he reached the top, his head hit the pulley. The box of bricks hit the ground and broke. As a result the bricks fell out. The box was then lighter than the man and consequently he began to come do
23、wn and the box began to go up.Half-way up, the box hit the man. The man still held on to the rope and the box therefore Continued to go up. The man then reached the ground. Then he let go the rope to rub his head. The box, of course, then fell down and hit the man on the head again. As a result, an
24、ambulance came and took him to hospital35 Why did the man fasten the end of the rope before he climbed up the ladder?（A）He was afraid that someone would steal his box.（B） Because he wanted to climb up along the rope.（C） He fastened the end of the rope in order to keep the box unmoved.（D）Because he w
25、anted to prevent the box from coming down. 36 The box of bricks hit the man because_.（A）the box of bricks was heavier than him（B） the box of bricks was lighter than him（C） the box of bricks came down too fast（D）the man was too careless 37 For the second time, the mans head was hit by_.（A）the box of

27、rocess which makes many of the goods and machines we need and use in our daily lives, is bound to create a number of waste products which upset the environmental balance or the ecological(生态的)balance as it is known. Many of these waste products can be prevented or disposed(处理) of sensibly, but clear
28、ly while more and more new goods are produced and made complex, there will be new, dangerous wastes to be disposed of, for example, the waste products from nuclear power stations. Many people therefore see pollution as only part of a larger and more complex problem, that is, the whole process of ind
29、ustrial production and consumption of goods. Others see the problem mainly in connection with agriculture, where new methods are helping farmers grow more and more on their land to feed our ever-increasing population. However, the land itself is gradually becoming worn out as it is being used, in so
30、me cases, too heavily, and artificial fertilizers(人造肥料) cannot bring back the balance.Whatever is underlying(潜在的)reasons, there is no doubt that much of the pollution caused could be controlled if only companies, individuals and governments would make more efforts. In the home there is an obvious ne
31、ed to control litter(杂乱的废物)and waste. Food is wrapped up three or four times in packages that all have to be disposed of; drinks are increasingly sold in bottles or tins which cannot be reused. This not only causes a litter problem, but also is a great waste of resources, in terms of glass, metals a
32、nd paper. Advertising has helped this process by persuading many of us to buy things we dont want to buy. Pollution and waste continue to be a problem everyone can help to solve by cutting out unnecessary buying, excess consumption and careless disposal of the products we use in our daily lives.39 T
33、he main cause of pollution is_.（A）the production of new industrial goods（B） increased amounts of unnatural substance（C） our ever-increasing population（D）the release of artificial substances into the environment 40 In the writers view, the more new goods there are,_.（A）the less pollution we have（B） t
34、he harder pollution can be done away with（C） the more pollution there will be（D）the more easily pollution can be controlled 41 Many people see pollution as only. part of_.（A）the environmental balance（B） our daily life（C） the consumption of goods by man（D）the whole process of industrial production an
35、d consumption of goods 42 People can help solve the problem of pollution by_.（A）urging their governments to control litter and waste（B） cutting down the use of oil and other oil products（C） reducing unnecessary buying, over-consumption and careless disposal of wastes（D）making anti-pollution advertis
36、ements 42 Women earn less than men do. For example, in 1998 the hourly wages of women in the U. S. were 26% less than those of men. The gap between male and female incomes varies with age. The gap between the labor incomes of young women and young men varies. Its also clear that jobs in which women
37、are concentrated pay less. The larger the number of workers who are women in ran industry, the lower the average wages.Why do women earn less than men do? Can the differences be explained by the fact that women are looked down upon? If so, the government has to intervene(干预), to force the employers
38、to pay equal wages to equal jobs. However, there is no agreement among economists about the causes of the gap. One view argues that women, on the average, have chosen low-paying jobs in which workers enjoy the freedom of entering and leaving the labor force, which reduces their years of experience r
39、elative to men. Other people say the gap can also be explained by the difference in educational background.Much of the gap, however, has not been fully explained. It might be the result of some prejudice (偏见) against women. It is this part that has produced calls for government action. What would ha
40、ppen if the government did intervene to increase the wages paid to women? One possibility is that incomes for women as a group might actually decline (下降). An increase in wage decreases the quantity of labor imput demanded, resulting in decreased employment as the rate of hiring new workers declines
41、. The result will be a surplus (过剩) of labor. Those who can find jobs might be better off while those who had jobs might find themselves out of work. 43 Some economists believe women earn less than men partly because_.（A）there are more than enough women in the labor force（B） women have more freedom
42、in selecting jobs（C） women are only provided with low-paid jobs（D）women are less experienced than men 44 Which of the following CANNOT be inferred from the second paragraph?（A）Levels of education are closely related to productivity.（B） Women are not as productive as men.（C） Women receive less educat
43、ion than men.（D）Goods produced by men are not as good as those by women. 45 What does the author suggest that the government should do for women workers?（A）To ensure equal pay for women.（B） No solution is clearly suggested.（C） To explain why women are paidless.（D）To force employers to hire more wome
44、n. 46 What would happen if womens wages were raised?（A）The imput of labor would be increased.（B） The unemployment rate would go up.（C） Those who have jobs would all become better off.（D）Women as a group would earn more than before. 46 Australia is nearly as large as the United States, but most of it
45、 is too dry for people to live in. Around this dry part are large sheep and cow farms. A few of them are as large as the smallest states: of America. Often the nearest neighbours are several hundred kilometers away.The two-way radio is very important to people who live on these great Australian farm
46、s. It works much like a telephone. A person can listen to someone else talk and then gives an answer. For example, people on the large farms could talk to a doctor far away. They could tell the doctor about someone who was ill, and the doctor could let them know how to look after the sick person.As
47、the large farms were so far from towns, the children could not go to school. Radio schools were started for them in some places. At a certain time each day, boys and girls turn on their radios and listen to teachers in cities far away.Families on the large farms wanted to give news to their neighbou
48、rs. The programme Round Robin Talks by radio was started to keep families in touch with each other. They could talk about who was going away and who was iii. The men could talk about their sheep and cows and how much money the markets would pay for them. In many ways the radio became a newspaper for
49、 the farm people of Australia.47 In the passage “the two-way radio“ is_.（A）important to Americans（B） useful for children only（C） used as a telephone（D）only used by doctors 48 The children on the large farms far away_.（A）always went to school together（B） could have lessons on the radios（C） listened to teachers at school（D）built radio schools with teachers 49 Which of the following is NOT TRUE in the passage?（A）The two-way radio is like
