14、 also in this kind of food;(7)butter, or something like butter. People in different countries and different places of the world eat different kinds of things. Foods are cooked and eaten in many different kinds of ways. People in different countries eat at different times of the day. In some places p
15、eople eat once or twice a day; in other countries people eat three or four times a day. Scientists say that none of the differences is really important. It doesnt matter whether foods are eaten raw or cooked, canned or frozen. It doesn t matter if a person eats dinner at 4 o clock in the afternoon o
16、r at eleven o clock at night. The important thing is what you eat every day. There are two problems, then, in feeding the large number of people on earth. The first is to find some ways to feed the worlds population so that no one is hungry. The second is to make sure that people everywhere have the
17、 right kinds of food to make them grow to be strong and healthy. 31 According to the scientists, which of the following groups of food is the healthiest for your lunch?（A）Chicken, apples, cereal, cabbages.（B） Potatoes, carrots, rice, bread.（C） Oranges, bananas, fish, tomatoes.（D）Beef, pork, fish, mi

21、municate? Fingers flying, we can blog(写博客文章), email, and enter chat rooms. But, as we type our millions of words, something is being lost. As our virtual skills increase, I wonder if our ability to communicate using speech is on the decline. Young people send me dozens of emails from schools and uni
22、versities. They often attach long lists of questions, to which they want detailed responses. Time is short, so my reply is usually that they can phone me and Ill do my best to answer. They very rarely do, at least partly because their oral and telephone skills are less developed than their ability t
23、o type, text and email. Yet to adapt an old business saying, a meeting is worth five phone calls and a phone call is worth five emails. Direct communication can quickly lead to bonding and trust. People are more likely to reveal what they are thinking when they actually speak to another person. Most
24、 are wary of committing themselves in writing. The great tragedy, of course, is that the phone was invented before the computer. If it had been the other way around, Internet forums would now be filled with the news: “ Have you heard(type, type, type)? There is this amazing new device(type, type). N
25、ow you can talk directly with people(type, type, type). Without all this typing. “ Marketing would do the rest and college would be rushing to develop new course in telephone skills. But, as it is, we are stuck with the supremacy of the typed word and it is getting in the way of our ability to look
26、people in the eye and talk. We should reconsider the technology in which the speed of our fingers is more important than the quality of our voices. 36 According to the author, young people today dont_.（A）like to communicate using speech（B） like to communicate with people（C） know how to communicate w
27、ith people（D）know how to ask questions in communication37 According to Paragraph 3, compared with meetings, e-mails are_.（A）more efficient（B） more interesting（C） less efficient（D）less interesting38 In Paragraph 4, “wary of “ can be replaced by “_“.（A）good at（B） happy about（C） used to（D）cautious abou
28、t39 The author believes that if the phone had been invented after the computer, people would_.（A）be eager to learn how to use the phone（B） be glad to have both means of communication（C） still prefer typing words on the computer（D）show little interest in the phone40 Which of the following can best de
29、scribe the author s attitude towards the communication using typed words today?（A）Concerned.（B） Curious.（C） Indifferent.（D）Impatient. 40 Traditionally, universities have carried out two main activities; research and teaching. Many experts would argue that both these activities play a critical role i
30、n serving the community. The fundamental question, however, is how does the community want or need to be served?In recent years universities have been coming under increasing pressure from both the governments and the public to ensure that they do not remain “ivory towers“(象牙塔)of study separated fro
31、m the realities of everyday life. University teachers have been encouraged, and in some cases compelled, to provide more courses which produce graduates with the technical skills required for the commercial use. If Aristotle wanted to work in university in the UK today, he would have a good chance o
32、f teaching computer science but would not be so readily employable as a philosopher. A post-industrial society requires large numbers of computer programmers, engineers, managers and technicians to maintain and develop its economic growth but “man“ , as the Bible says, “does not live by bread alone.
33、 “ Apart from requiring medical and social services, which do not directly contribute to economic growth, the society should also value and enjoy literature, music and the arts. In these cost-conscious times, it has even been pointed out in justification for the funding of the arts that they can be
34、useful money earners. A successful musical play, for instance, can contribute as much to the Gross National Product through tourist dollars as any other things.41 We can know from the first paragraph that the author_.（A）believes traditional universities have done a good job serving the community（B）
35、believes it remains to be discussed how universities should meet the needs of society（C） thinks some experts require too much of universities（D）thinks universities should do more than just research and teach42 It can be inferred from the second paragraph that _.（A）society is not satisfied with the p
36、resent college education（B） interference from the government is unwelcome（C） teachers are forced to do what they dont like to do（D）it s a mistake for universities to teach courses of no commercial use43 The example of Aristotle indicates that _.（A）universities in the UK have produced too many good-f
37、or-nothing graduates（B） universities should stop teaching philosophy（C） high technology is now valued more than other courses in universities（D）universities should put more stress on computer science44 According to the passage, literature, music and the arts_.（A）contribute directly to economic growt
38、h（B） are as necessary to man as medical and social services（C） are justified since they bring profits（D）are a good way of earning money45 The author implies that_.（A）economy should always be a nation s first consideration（B） universities should take cost into account when they decide what courses th
39、ey will offer（C） successful musical plays are part of national economy（D）economic growth is not the only need of mankind45 Listening is an extremely complex communicative activity. In order to have a better understanding, to anticipate what is coming is very important. An effective listener should c
40、ontinuously develop more or less specific readiness for what will come next. If a listener hears what he has expected, it will be much easier for him to receive the information. But if what he hears is totally out of his expectation, he will fail to get the message. The skill to anticipate what is c
41、oming in listening comprehension depends largely on the listener s familiarity with the theme(主题)of the message. It also depends on the listener s knowledge of the speaker as well as the situation. Obviously, when we listen to something that we already have some information about, it is generally mu
42、ch easier for us to take in the new information. Therefore, pre-listening preparation seems to play an important role in increasing our comprehension. Before actual listening, we could perhaps first give some thought to the topic, discuss it with others, and then read some related material and do so
43、me vocabulary work, if we could make ourselves fully prepared for the coming talks or lectures, we are more likely to become effective listeners. Of course, readiness beforehand is not at all enough. Active thinking must take place all the way through. In fact, we should always try to think ahead of
44、 the speaker. 46 The passage is most possible taken from_.（A）a novel（B） a textbook（C） a news report（D）a fashion magazine47 What is the first paragraph mainly about?（A）How to think actively in listening comprehension.（B） How to develop specific readiness before listening.（C） The skills in anticipatin
45、g in listening comprehension.（D）The importance of anticipating in listening comprehension. 48 The skill to anticipate in listening comprehension depends largely on_.（A）the listener s emotion（B） the difficulty of the message（C） the listener s communicative skills（D）the listener s familiarity with the
46、 topic49 In order to anticipate, the first thing to do before actual listening may be_.（A）do some vocabulary work（B） think about the topic（C） read some related material（D）discuss the topic with others50 What is the author s attitude towards anticipating in listening comprehension?（A）Neutral.（B） Posi
