Then, mark your answer by blackening the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet.30 In the 1940s, urban Americans began a mass move to the suburbs in search of fresh air, elbow room and pr
14、ivacy. Suburbs began to sprawl out across the countryside, since most of those making the move were middleclass, they took with them the tax money the cities needed to maintain the neighborhood, in which they had lived. The people left in the cities were often those who were too old or too poor to m
15、ove. Thus many cities began to fall into disrepair. Crime began to soar, and public transportation was neglected. (In the past sixty years, San Francisco is the only city in the United States to have completed a new mass transit system.) Meanwhile, housing construction costs continued to rise higher
16、 and higher. Middle-class housing was allowed to decay, and little new housing was constructed.Eventually, many downtown areas existed for business only. During the day they would be filled with people working in the offices and at night they would be deserted. Given these circumstances, some busine
17、ss executives began asking, “Why bother with going downtown at all? Why not move the offices to the suburbs go that we can live and work in the same area?“ Gradually some of the larger companies began to move out of the cities, with the result that urban centers declined even further and the suburbs
18、 expanded still more. This movement of business to the suburbs is not confined to the United States. Businesses have also been moving to the suburbs in Stockholm, Sweden, in Bonn, Germany, and in Brussels, Belgium as well.31 What did the city lose when those people moved out to the suburbs?（A）Houses
19、（B） Cars.（C） Jobs.（D）Tax money. 32 What are not the resulting effects on cities when those people moved out?（A）There were more crimes.（B） Cities were in a bad condition.（C） Only one mass transit system was completed.（D）Some small companies move in while larger ones moved out. 33 According to the pas
20、sage, the suburbs _.（A）were deserted at night（B） became larger and larger（C） had a high construction cost（D）had some declined business center 34 Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?（A）Some companies in the United States moved to Sweden, Germany and Belgium.（B） Fresh ai
21、r, spacious room and being away from others attract people to move to the suburbs.（C） People wouldnt pay tax when they moved out of cities.（D）The neighborhood should be maintained by old and poor people. 35 The best title for this passage is _.（A）Urban Renewal（B） Suburban Sprawl（C） Effects of the Mo
22、ve to the Suburbs（D）Development of the Suburbs 35 The letter you write is your personal representative. It takes your place when circumstances make it impossible for you to be there in person. It goes to the hospital to cheer a sick friend. It goes to your hostess to thank her for entertaining you.
23、It conveys your best wishes, congratulations, condolences-when you are not able to do so in person.A friendly letter is like a visit on paper. If you “hate to write letters“, its simply because you have not yet discovered the fun it can be to write and receive letters that are good talk on paper. Ma
24、ny people neglect to answer letters from relatives and friends. To a letter unanswered is like saying, “I dont think you are worth the time and effort it takes to write a letter.“36 According to the passage, when you cant come to a certain place in person, you can _.（A）send somebody else instead（B）
25、make a telephone call（C） send a telegraph（D）write a letter 37 Letter can express your _.（A）congratulations（B） condolences（C） best wishes（D）all of the above 38 If you send your friend a letter, it seems that he _.（A）will be greatly worried（B） will be angry about it（C） will award you（D）will see you on

27、ds is too busy to read a letter（B） your friend hates to receive a letter（C） your friend is not worthy of your letter（D）your friend should not have written you a letter 40 No one knows exactly how many disabled (残废的) people there are in the world, but estimates suggest the figure is over 450 million.
28、 The number of disabled people in India alone is probably more than double the total population of Canada.In the United Kingdom, about one in ten people have some disability. Disability is not just something that happens to other people. As we get older, many of us will become less mobile (可动的 ), ha
29、rd of hearing or have failing eyesight.Disablement can take many forms and occur at any time of life. Some people are born with disabilities. Many others become disabled as they get older. There are many progressive disabling diseases. The longer time goes on, the worse they become. Some people are
30、disabled in accidents. Many others may have a period of disability in the form of a mental illness. All are affected by peoples attitude towards them.Disabled people face many physical barriers. Next time you go shopping or to work or visit friends, imagine how you would manage if you could not get
31、up steps, or on to buses and trains. How would you cope if you could not see where you were going or could not hear the traffic? But there are other barriers: prejudice can be even harder to break down and ignorance inevitably represents by far the greatest barrier of all. It is almost impossible fo
32、r the able-bodied to fully appreciate what the severely disabled go through, so it is important to draw attention to these barriers and show that it is the individual person and their ability, not their disability, which counts. 41 The first paragraph points out that _.（A）it is possible to get an ex
33、act figure of the worlds disabled people（B） there are many disabled people in the world（C） the number of disabled people in India is the greatest（D）India has not much more disabled people than Canada 42 The key word in Paragraph 4 is _.（A）barriers（B） ignorance（C） disability（D）prejudice 43 The last w

35、rriers faced by the disabled people.（C） Even the able-bodied may lose some of their body functions when they get older.（D）There still exists prejudice against the disabled which results mainly from ignorance. 45 It can be concluded from the passage that _.（A）we should try our best to prevent disable
36、ment（B） we must take a proper attitude towards the disabled（C） the able-bodied people will never fully understand the disabled（D）both physical and mental barriers are hard to break down 45 More than 6,000 children were expelled (开除) from US school last year for bringing guns and bombs to school, the
37、 US Department of Education said on May 8.The department gave a report to the expulsions (开除) as saying handguns accounted for 58 percent of the 6,093 expulsions in 1996 and 1997, against 7 percent for rifles (步枪)or shotguns and 35 percent for other types of firearms.“The report is a clear sign that
38、 out nations public schools are cracking down (严惩) on students who bring guns to school,“ Education Secretary Richard Riley said in a statement. “We need to be tough-minded about keeping guns out of our schools and do everything to keep our children safe.“In March 1997, an 11 years old boy and 13 ye
39、ars old boy using handguns and rifles shot dead four children and a teacher at a school in Jonesboro, Arkansas. In October, two were killed and seven wounded in a shooting at a Mississippi school. Two months later, a 14 years old boy killed three high school students and wounded five in Dasucah, Ken
40、tucky.Most of the expulsions, 56 percent, were from high school, which have students from about age 13.34 percent were from junior high schools and 9 percent were from elementary schools, the report said. 46 From the first paragraph we can infer that in the US schools _.（A）students enjoy shooting（B）
41、 students are eager to be solider（C） safety is a problem（D）students can make guns 47 The report from the US Department of Education shows that _.（A）the number of the expulsions is not large（B） the number of the expulsion is wrong（C） there are soldiers hiding among the students（D）guns are out of cont
42、rol in US schools 48 The main idea of Paragraph Four shows us _.（A）some examples of shoot in US schools（B） the Americans feeling（C） some famous schools（D）that some teachers were killed by students 49 How many students were shot dead in 1997 in US schools?（A）10（B） 9（C） 12（D）2250 From this passage we
43、know that _.（A）every American cannot have guns（B） only soldiers and police can have guns（C） every American citizen can own guns（D）teachers have no money to buy guns 50 Some people hate everything that is modern. They cannot imagine how anyone can really like modern music; they find it hard to accept
44、 the new fashions in clothing; they think that all modern painting is ugly; and they seldom have a good word for the new buildings that are being built everywhere in the world. Such people look for perfection in everything, and they take their standards of perfection from the past. They are usually
45、impatient with anyone who is brave enough to experiment with new or to express himself or the age in materials original ways. It is, of course, true that many artists do not succeed in their work and instead produce works that can only be considered as failures. If the work of art is a painting, the
46、 artists failure concerns himself alone, but if it is a building, his failure concerns others too, because it may damage the beauty of the whole place. This does sometimes happen, but it is completely untrue to say, as some people do, that modern architecture is nothing.We cant judge every modern bu
47、ilding by the standards of the ancient time, even though we admire the ancient buildings. Technologically, the modern buildings are more advanced. The modern architect knows he should learn from the ancient works, but with his greater resources of knowledge and materials, he will never be content to
48、 imitate the past. He is too proud to do that. 51 Some people hate everything that is modern because _.（A）they are aged（B） they find it hard to accept modern things（C） they take their standards of perfection from the Greek（D）they look at things by the standards of the past 52 The writer of the passa
49、ge thinks that _.（A）it is true to say artists fail in their work（B） it is untrue to say artists fail in their work（C） it is true to say some artists fail in their work（D）it is true to say only painters fail in their work 53 The writer thinks the failure of a building _.（A）means nothing（B） concerns others（C） concerns only the artist（D）concerns all the people in the world 54 The writer thinks that
