IV. Translate the following paragraph into Chinese: (10 points) Rummaging through the fruit and veg section of my local supermarket, reading the country of origin labels, I am bewildered by the geography of it all. That the fruits of t he earth should all be laid out on tidy shelves in this provincial corner of Britain woul d have been unthinkable a few years ago, yet now it is taken for granted.

Once strange and exotic fruits that only the rich could afford, if not now part of eve ryone’s diet, are certainly part of our everyday shopping experience. So much so that i nstead of focusing on the novel, I am drawn to the commonplace. Here, among the “h umble” vegetables, something strange and disturbing is going on.

VI. Reading Comprehension (38 points) Passage 1

I am one of the many city people who are always saying that given the choice we would prefer to live in the country away from the dirt and noise of a large city. I have managed to convince myself that it weren’t for my job I would immediately head out for the open spaces and go back to nature in some sleepy village buried in the country. But how realistic is the dream?

Cities can be frightening places. The majority of the population live in massive tow er blocks, noisy, dirty and impersonal. The sense of belonging to a community tends to disappear when you live fifteen floors up. All you can see from your window is sky, or other blocks of flats. Children become aggressive and nervous—cooped up at home all day, with nowhere to play; their mothers feel isolated from the rest of the world. Strangely enough whereas in the past the inhabitants of one street all knew each other, nowadays people on the same floor in tower blocks don’t even say hello to each other.

Country life, on the other hand, differs from this kind of isolated existence in that a sense of community generally binds the inhabitants of small villages together. People have the advantage of knowing that there is always someone to turn to when they need help. But country life has disadvantages too. While it is true that you may be among friends in a village, it is also true that you are cut off from the existing and important events that take place in cities. There’s little possibility of going to a new show or the latest movie. Shopping becomes a major problem, and for anything slightly out of the ordinary you have to go on and expedition to the nearest large town . The city-dweller who leaves for the country is often oppressed by a sense of unbearable stillness and quiet.

What, then, is the answer? The country has the advantage of peace and quiet, but suffers from the disadvantage of being cut off; the city breeds a feeling of isolation, and constant noise batters the senses. But one of its main advantages is that you are at the center of things, and that life doesn’t come to an end at half-past nine at night. So me people have found (or rather bought) a compromise between the two; they have expressed their preference for the “quiet life” by leaving the suburbs and moving to villages within commuting distance of large cities. They generally have about as much sensitivity as the plastic flowers they leave behind— they are polluted with strange ideas about change and improvement which they force on to the unwilling original inhabitants of the villages.

What then of my dreams of leaning on a cottage gate and murmuring “morning” to the locals as they pass by? I’m keen on the idea, but you see there’s my cat, Toby, I’m not at all sure that he would take to all that fresh air and exercise in the long grass, I m ean, can you see him mixing with all those hearty males down the farm? No, he would

rather have the electric imitation-coal fire any evening.

1. We get the impression from the first paragraph that the author

A used to live in the country

B used to work in the city

C works in the city

D lives in the country

2. In the author’s opinion, the following may cause city people to be unhappy EXC EPT

A a strong sense of fear

B lack of communication

C housing conditions

D a sense of isolation

3. The passage implies that it is easy to buy the following things in the country EX CEPT

A daily necessities

B fresh fruits

C designer clothes

D fresh vegetables

4. According to the passage, which of the following adjectives best describes those people who work in large cities and live in villages?

A Original

B Quiet

C Arrogant

D Insensitive

5. Do you think the author will move to the country?

A Yes, he will do so

B No, he will not do so

C It is difficult to tell

D He is in two minds

Passage 2

Clearly if we are to participle in the society in which we live we must communica te with other people. A great deal of communicating is performed on a person-to- person basis by the simple means of speech. If we travel in buses, buy things in shops, or eat in restaurants, we are likely to have conversations where we give information or opinions, receive news or comment, and very likely have our views challenged by other members of society.

Face-to-face contact is by no means the only form of communication and during the last two hundred years the art of mass communication has become of one of the do minating factors of contemporary society. Two things, above others, have caused the enormous growth of the communication industry. Firstly, inventiveness has led to advances in printing, telecommunications, photography, radio and television. Secondly, speed has revolutionized the transmission and reception of communications so that local news often takes a back seat to national news, which itself is often almost eclipsed by international news.

No longer is the possession of information confined to a privileged minority. In the last

century the wealthy man with his own library was indeed fortunate, but today there are public libraries. Forty years ago people used to flock to the cinema, but now far more people sit at home and turn on the TV to watch a programme that is being chann eled into millions of homes.

Communication is no longer merely concerned with the transmission of information. The modern communication industry influences the way people live in society and broadens their horizons by allowing access to information, education and entertainment. The printing, broadcasting and advertising industries are all involved

with informing,educating and entertaining.

Although a great deal of the material communicated by the mass media is very valuable to the individual and to the society of which he is a part, the vast modern networkof communications is open to abuse. However, the mass media are with us for better, for worse, and there is no turning back.

6. In the first paragraph the writer emphasizes the _____ of face-to-face contact in social settings.

A nature

B limitation

C usefulness

D creativity

7. It is implied in the passage that_______

A local news used to be the only source of information

B local news still takes a significant place

C national news is becoming more popular

D international news is the fastest transmitted news

8. which of the following statement is INCORRECT?

A To possess information used to be a privilege

B Public libraries have replaced private libraries

C Communication means more than transmission

D Information influences ways of life and thinking

9. From the last paragraph we can infer that the writer is________.

A indifferent to the harmful influence of the mass media

B happy about the drastic changes in the mass media

C pessimistic about the future of the mass media

D concerned about the wrong use of the mass media

Passage 3

Human cloning technology could be used to reverse heart attacks. Scientists believe that they may be able to treat heart attack victims by cloning their healthy heart cells and injecting them into the areas of the heart that have been damaged, and other problems may be solved if human cloning and its technology are not forbidden.

With cloning, infertile couples could have children. Current treatments for infertilit y, in terms of percentages, are not very successfully. Couples go through physically an d emotionally painful procedures for a small chance of having children. Many couples run out of time and money without successfully having children. Human cloning coul d make it possible for many more infertile couples to have children than ever before. We should be able to clone the bone marrow for children and adults suffering from leukemia. This is expected to be one of the first benefits to come from cloning technol ogy.

We may learn how to switch cells on and off through cloning and thus be able to cu re cancer. Cloning technology can be used to test for and perhaps cure gene-related di seases.

The above is just a few examples of what human cloning technology can do for mankind.

This new technology promises unprecedented advancement in medicine if people w

ill release their fears and let the benefits begin.

10．Heart attacks can be treated with human cloning technology by___________.

A removing the damaged part of the heart

B replacing the old heart with a cloned one

C repairing the heart with cells cloned from healthy ones

D giving the patients injec tions of various medicines

11. The word “infertile”(Line 1, Para.2) most probably means“____________”. A u nable to give birth to a child

B with physical and emotional problems

C short of time and money

D separated from each other for long

12. According to the passage, one of the first expected benefits from cloning techno logy may be in ____________.

A the treatment of heart attacks

B the bearing of babies

C the cure of blood diseases

D the detection of gene-related diseases

13. Cancer may be cured with the cloning technology by___________. A attacking the diseased cells with healthy ones B controlling the growth of the cells

C detecting disordered genes in the cancel cells

D activating cancer cells by switchi ng them on

14. According to the writer, the main problem with the development of human cloni ng technology is that___________.

A it may be out of human control

B it has brought about few benefits so far

C people still know little about it

D people are afraid of such technology Passage 4

Ideas about education are changing in the United States. Education today is not just a high school diploma or a college degree. Many adults are not interested in going to college. They are interested in other kinds of learning. For them, learning does not en d with a diploma.

Continuing education gives these adults the opportunity to increase their knowledge about their own field or to learn about a new field. It also gives them a chance to impr ove their old skills or to learn new ones.

Scientists, mechanics and barbers can take classes to improve their work skills. If th ey know more or learn more, they can get a better job or earn more money. Continuing education classes give more adults the chances to learn new skills. Ther e is usually a large variety of classes to choose from: typing, foreign cooking, photogr aphy, auto repair, furniture repair, or swimming. These are only some of the classes av ailable.

Some adults take classes for fun or because the class will be useful for them. Other adults take continuing education classes to improve their own lives because they want to feel better about themselves

Almost any community college or public school system has a continuing education program. There are classes in schools, community buildings or churches. Most classes

are in the evening, so working people can attend. The classes are usually small, and t hey are inexpensive.

15. The new idea about education in the U.S. is that__________. A. everyone sh ould get a college degree B. It’s no use for adults to go to college

C. a high school diploma is the end of education

D. adults should go on learning after graduating from school 16. What’s the purp ose for adults to continue their education? A. Enlarge their knowledge and learn ne w skills. B.

C. People take continuing education can get a good job.

D. All the people getting continuing education can get a good job. 18. Usually , the continuing education program is given________. A. in a small size and exp ensively B. only for working people

C. only in community buildings or churches

D. by community colleges and public schools 19. The best title for the passage would be _________. A. Continuing Education Classes

逛当地超市的蔬菜水果自选区时,我感到很困惑,从标签上看它们的原产地几乎遍及世界各地。英国这个外省小地方的角落能陈列着来自世界各地的水果，这在几年前简直难以令人置信。但现在，这好像是理所当然的事情。

以前，那些稀罕的和外国进口的水果只有富人才买得起，但现在即使不是每个人都能品尝到，也一定是我们每天购物时所能见识到的。变化这么大，以致我不再对新奇的果品过多地关注，而被普通的东西所吸引了。在那些常见而“廉价”的蔬菜里面某种奇怪而又令人不安的事情正在发生。

The servants were up very late on the Saturday evening, getting everything ready for the next day, and while they were busy they saw the glow (暗淡的光) of a fire start in the sky. By 3 o'clock on the Sunday morning, the glow had become so bright that one of the servants, Jane, woke her master to see it. Pepys went to the window to watch it. It seemed fairly far away, so after a time he went back to bed. When he got up in the morning, it looked as though the fire was dying down, though he could still see some flames. So he set to work to tidy his room and put his things back where he wanted them after the servants had cleaned everything. While he was doing this, Jane came in to say that she had heard that the fire was a bad one: three hundred houses had been burned down in the night and the fire was still burning. Pepys went out to see for himself. He went to the Tower of London and climbed up on a high part of the building so that he could see what was happening. From there, Pepys could see that it was, indeed, a bad fire and that even the houses on London Bridge were burning. Someone told him that the fire had started in a

What are some of the wonders that may come true in the future? A world underground The green utopia (an ideally perfect place) underground is going to help us regain a more harmonious relationship between the often opposing sides of large-scale development and our ecosystem. The city may be called Alice City, from Alice's Adventure in the Wonderland, which offers a wonderful world that is almost as fantastical as that was described in the book. A large clear dome (圆顶), within an area of open parkland, leads into a multi-leveled structured metropolis of underground offices, housing, transportation and public areas. There will be everything to make the city as self-sufficient as possible including shopping malls, theatres and sports complexes in addition to facilities (contained in a separate structure) for power generation, heating and waste recycling. Apart from offering an almost limitless space for development, such underground development has many more attractive ecological advantages over traditional forms of housing. It is less disturbing than high rise development and therefore favorable in environmentally sensitive areas. Land above the complex can be set aside for parkland and recreational use. In towns or cities where pollution levels are high, air can be filtered through air pipes in the roof of an underground housing or industrial complex. A world underwater At the docks you step into a shiny metal submarine that is shaped like a shark. The door is closed behind you, and powerful engine starts to push. Down slides the submarine--like a shark diving. Deeper and deeper under the water. Soon all sunlight is gone. The headlights of the diving ship are turned on. Then, six miles below, you come to the sea bottom. From the diving submarine, you change to tiny jet boat and ride along close to the bottom of the ocean, almost as you would skim over the land in an air-plane. As you travel, you have fun looking out the window at the sights on the bottom of the ocean. You see strange fish and underwater mountains, cliffs, and valleys. But more than that--hotels and mining camps and farms and factories! A world in space Let's go back to dry land and take a future journey the other way-up instead of down. Huge rocket liners take you into space to visit the Moon Camp. You walk around on the moon in a special moon suit. You visit an observatory where a giant telescope looks far into space--farther than anyone has ever been able to see from Earth. You go deep down into one of the moon mines. After you have visited the moon, you visit the Mars Colony and the Venus Exploration Outpost. A new world on the Earth Let's go back to Earth. In the far, far future, girls--and boys, too--may be playing with dolls that look like the people of the planets visited by our spacemen. To control or run all kinds of toys, boys and girls may learn to use special computers --machines that answer questions and do arithmetic faster than you can blink. Bicycles and perhaps skates may be run by jet power, and a new thing to ride may be a small flying saucer. Imagine a race between them! There may be telepathy (心灵感应) helmets that send thought waves from your brain to that of your friend miles away. You just think a thought and your friend knows it! You can have secrets with each other that nobody else can turn in on! Robots There will be other surprises in the future. How would you like to have a robot playmate? Having robot playmates may not be-so much fun as it seems. But maybe a boy with a wrench (扳手) and a screwdriver can fix the robot so that it won't be too perfect! Food What about the food of the future? Scientists think that much of it will be artificial --made in factories from such surprising things as coal, limestone, air, and water. You don't think that ice-cream or cake or candy or even bread and potatoes made out of these things will taste very good? You may be wrong. These artificial things will be blended so skillfully by food chemists that the food of the future probably will be delicious. It probably will also be healthful because all the things that you need to live a long and healthy life will be put into it. A longer life Scientists of the future will almost certainly find other ways to make life last longer. They probably will find cures for most diseases. Hospitals will probably have "body banks" that can give you almost any new part you need to keep on living. People of the future may live to be a lot older than 100 years. TV Are you wondering whether there'll be television in the future? There'll almost certainly be wonderful programs. Television screens probably will be large and flat, hanging on the wall or going across the four walls of a room. People on the screen will look as real as if they were right in the room with you. Highways What about highways of the future? Well, a very small child probably will be able to drive a car. Nobody will need to steer. Electric signals will hold each car on the right road to get wherever the "driver" wants to go. And it probably will be impossible for cars to smash together. Controls that won't even have to be touched will make all speeding cars miss each other or will put on the brakes. Driving by car will be as safe as being at home. Weather control But maybe the most wonderful surprise in the future will be weather control. Cities may have giant plastic domes over them to keep out snow, rain, or storms. When you plan a picnic in a park, you won't have to worry about rain. It will rain only when the "weatherman" thinks it is needed to freshen the air inside the city. All other days will be fair and warm. The future should be a wonderful time in which to live. But the time you axe living in now was also "a wonderful future" to the people who lived 100 years ago. 1. The underground city would get its name from a book called Alice's Adventure in the Wonderland. A. Y B. N C. NG 2. The multi-leveled structure underground would include everything that is necessary to a city, from offices, shopping malls to power and heating system. A. Y B. N C. NG

Such an imbalance exists when the total value of a country’s imports exceeds that of its exports. For example, if a country buys $25 billion of products from other countries, yet sells only $10 billion of its own products overseas, its trade deficit（贸易逆差）is $15 billion. Many underdeveloped nations find themselves in this position because they lack natural resources or the industrial capacity to use these resources, and thus have to import
