Reading Comprehension

When a man is driving a car for long distances along a main road or motorway, two of his problems are to keep the car at a fairly steady speed and to make sure that he does not run into the car in front of him. Easy enough you may think—but it is even easier on a long motorway drive for a man’s attention to wander. Some experiments have been made with a system which involves computer control of these two problems. The car’s computer keeps the speed steady. At the same time the distance between the car and another car in front of it is rear reflectors(后反射镜)of the car in front and is reflected back, so enabling the distance to be measured. This information is fed to the computer, which adjusts its speed control accordingly. There are also to be experiments with a system called “Minigap”. This system will he particularly useful to driver stuck in long queues of cars, as the computer would control not only the speed and the distance from the car in front, but also the steering(方向盘操纵). Using this system, a driver could switch over to Minigap, take out his newspaper and do the crossword puzzle while car drives most of the way home automatically. To the roadside observer, the line of cars would seem like a train

which carriages could join or leave at will (任意).

41． What is the main subject of the passage? A．Speed control.

B．The system “Minigap”.

C．The computer and the motorcar. D．Two of driver’s problems.

正确答案：C 解析：全文所谈论的是在汽车上安装自动控制装置。D在文中引出主题，A、B分别是两种控制类型，故应选C。

42． The word “queues”(Line 2, Para. 2)probably means______. A．trains B．distances C．lines D．steering

正确答案：C 解析：queues所在句子的意思是：这种系统在司机被困在一长队汽车中时特别有用，它不仅控制速度和与前面车子的距离，还能控制转向。将A项trains(拖车)、B项distance(距离)、D项steering(转向)来代换queues都不合逻辑。

43． According to the passage what is NOT the result after using a computer control system?

A．A car would be like a train.

B．A car could be driven automatically. C．A car would not run into another car. D．The speed of a car could be kept steady.

正确答案：A 解析：文中最后一句意思是：在路边的观察者来看，一队汽车就像一列火车，车厢可以随意加入或离开。这里“车厢”即指一辆辆的汽车。因此不是一辆汽车而且是一队汽车像火车。故应选A。

44． The word “This information”(Line 8, Para. 1.)refers to______. A．the beam

B．the car in front C．the distance

D．the rear reflectors

正确答案：C

解析：A、B和D三项是测量车距时涉及到的对象或装置，目的是为了测量

车距。因此后一句的information就是指上句的中心词the distance。故应选C。

45． The lines of cars would seem like a train because______. A．the drivers could read newspaper in cars B．the cars join

C．the drivers switch over to Minigap D．the car could leave at will

正确答案：C

解析：火车的车厢并不能随意加入或离开，故B、D项并非汽车队像火车的地方。从A项也不能推论出汽车像火车。只有C项标明在司机用了Minigap装置后，由于速度、车距的控制，整队汽车能几乎同时均匀向前行驶。故应选C。

Over the past decade, the environmental movement has exploded onto the mind of mainstream consumers, a fact not lost on marketers and advertisers. Green advertising, started in the mid-1980s when issues of the environment muscled their way to the forefront of marketing. Advertisers saw the consumer desire for environmentally safe products and tried to meet the demand as quickly as possible. Not surprisingly, this first wave suffered from rough and poorly conceived marketing efforts. Many advertisers embraced a genuine concern for the environment. But consumers realized that some companies made false claims and exploited the movement, using such nebulous(模糊的)terms as “environmentally friendly” and “green”. Consumers grew wary of environmental appeals, and advertisers reacted by reducing its emphasis. To avoid future trouble, many companies waited for state and federal governments to define terms and provide legal guidelines, which paved the road to a second wave. In 1992 the Federal Trade Commission established guidelines for green marketing, followed shortly by-state governments, California passed particularly strict laws, setting definitions for terms like “ozone friendly, “ “biodegradable, “ and “recycled”. According to the state’s court, “California seeks to guard against potentially specious; claims or ecological puffery(吹捧)about products with minimal environmental attributes. “ Texas, Massachusetts, Minnesota, Tennessee, Connecticut, and Washington soon followed the Golden State’s lead. The rigid regulations have left a number of advertisers confused and frustrated, although some feel that environmental claims have already peaked and are on their way out. Some believe that we’ve now entered green advertising’s third wave, where environmental concern is now part of the mainstream.

46． What were some early problems with Green advertisements? A．They were expensive. B．No one believed them. C．They were unsuccessful. D．They were often deceptive.

正确答案：D

解析：A．绿色广告费用昂贵。

B．无人相信绿色广告。C绿色广告并不成功。

D．绿色广告经常带有欺骗性。此题为细节题，该题的含在下面的句子里。Butconsumers realized that some companies made false claims and exploited themovement，using such nebulous terms as“environmentally friendly”and“green”．但一些消费者意识到一些公司做假承诺，用模糊的“有益环境”等术语大大利用时机。故答案为D。

47． What was the response by consumers? A．Consumers were responsible. B．Consumers were hostile.

C．Consumers didn’t care all the time. D．Consumers got tired of it.

正确答案：D 解析：

B．消费者持反对的态度。

C．消费者在此问题上始终漠不关心。

D．消费者对绿色广告已厌烦了。此题为细节题，该题的含在下面的句子里。Consumers grew wary of envirotlmental appeals．故答案为D。

48． How did Green advertisements change after the first wave? A．They became more popular. B．They were more regulated. C．They became better produced. D．They became less honest.

正确答案：B

解析：A．它们变得更受欢迎。 B．它们变得更为规范。 C．它们被制作得更好。

D．它们的可信度降低。此题为归纳推理题。该题是根据第二段提问的。第二段的大意是：为了避免麻烦许多公司等待出台合法的条款，于1992年联邦出台了绿色市场的条文，加利福尼亚对此也通过了严格的法律。所以答案应是B。

49． When did the green third wave come? A．When environmental concern rise.

B．When advertisers are self-regulating themselves. C．When advertisements become very regulated.

D．When the mainstream also becomes concerned about it.

正确答案：D

解析：A．当环保意识增强的时候。 B．当广告商们规范其广告的时候。 C．当广告规范化的时候。

D．当环保广告深入到广大的消费者心中的时候。此题为细节题，该题的答案可以在最后一段的最后一句话里找到。Some believe that we’ve nowentered green advertising’s third wave，where environmental concern is now part ofthe mainstream．所以正确答案是D。

50． Which of the following state takes the lead in guarding against ecological puffery of products with minimal environmental attributes?

A．Massachusetts. B．Texas. C．California. D．Connecticut.

正确答案：C 解析：A．麻萨诸塞州。 B．德克萨斯州。 C．加利福尼亚州。 D．康涅狄格州。此题为细节题。该题的含在下面的句子里。According to the state’s court，“California seeks to guard against potentially specious claims or ecological pufferyabout products with minimal environmental attributes．”，Texas， Massachusetts，Minnesota， Tennessee， Connecticut， and Washington soon followed the GoldenState’s lead．这儿the Golden State’s lead指加州。所以正确答案为C。

Normally a student must attend a certain number of courses in order to graduate, and each course which he attends gives him a credit which he may count towards a degree. In many American universities the total work for a degree consists of thirty-six courses each lasting for one semester. A typical course consists of three classes per week for fifteen weeks; while attending a university a student will probably attend four or five courses during each semester. Normally a student would expect to take four years attending two semesters each year. It is possible to spread the period of work for the degree over a longer period. It is also possible for a student to move between one university and another during his degree course, though this is not in fact done as a regular practice. For every course that he follows a student is given a grade, which is recorded, and the record is available for the student to show to prospective employers. All this imposes a constant pressure and strain of work, but in spite of this some students still find time for great activity in student affairs. Elections to positions in student organizations arouse much enthusiasm. The effective work of maintaining discipline is usually performed by students who advise the academic authorities. Any student who is thought to have broken the rules, for example, by cheating has to appear before a student court. With the enormous numbers of students, the operation of the system does involve a certain amount of activity. A student who

has held one of these positions of authority is much respected and it will be of benefit to him later in his career.

51． Normally a student would at least attend______ classes each week. A．36 B．12 C．20 D．15

正确答案：B

解析：计算题。每门课每星期上三节，每学期要学四到五门课。因此每星期至少要上12节课。

B．to take a particular course in a different university C．to live at home and drive to classes

D．to get two degrees from two different universities

A．they hate the constant pressure and strain of their study B．they will then be able to stay longer in the university C．such positions help them get better jobs D．such positions are usually well paid

正确答案：C 解析：因果判断题。文章最后一句话提到拥有这样的职位受人尊敬并对未来的事业有利，其他任何地方均未提到学生为何积极参与社团活动。

55． The student organizations seem to be effective in______. A．dealing with the academic affairs of the university

B．ensuring that the students observe university regulations

C．evaluating students’ performance by bringing them before a court D．keeping up the students’ enthusiasm for social activities

Nearly million cars and trucks in the United States are equipped with driver side air bags located in the center of the steering wheel. 24 million also have a passenger-side device located in the dashboard. Air bags are designed to protect against sudden, fierce frontal highway impacts. Five years ago evidence of serious air-bag injuries began to surface. Drivers in minor fender benders suffered severe eye and ear injuries, broken bones and third-degree burns from the force of the inflating bags. In December 1991 the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration(NHTSA)advised parents to avoid putting rear-facing infant sets in front of air bags, acknowledging that the force of the explosive bag could harm infants, whose heads were only inches away from the devices. Last October it was determined that all children 12 and under were more susceptible to injury and death than adults; their more fragile bodies were seated lower, increasing the impact of the air bag to the head area. In addition, more children were not properly restrained or were out of position when the air bag inflated. On November 22, 1996, after nearly 60 deaths and thousands of injuries were attributed to the devices, the NHTSA mandated improved labels for all new vehicles, warning of the risk to children under 13. Despite these problems, officials stress the overall effectiveness of these devices. ‘‘All in all, air bags work well and are responsible for an 11 percent reduction in driver fatalities, “ says NHTSA Administrator Dr. Ricardo Martinez. “First and foremost, make sure you’re properly buckled up before getting on the road, “ says Brain O’Neill, president of the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety. Keep in mind how close you sit to an air bag. Push seats as far back as possible, remaining just close enough to control the pedals. Your face and torso should be at least 10 to 12 inches from the steering column. “It’s not a bad idea actually to measure the distance with a ruler to be sure. “ adds O’Neill. Adjustable steering wheels should be pointed toward the chest rather than the head to prevent inflating bag from damaging the face or neck. Also, position hands at nine o’clock and three o’clock on the wheel to keep your arms away from an opening air bag. Pregnant women in particular should keep their abdomen as distant from the air bag as possible. In the final trimester, women should point adjustable steering wheels upward, away from their fetus. Perhaps most important, children 12 and under should always ride in the back seat, buckled up.

56． From the passage, we learned that______.

A．there are 24 million cars and trucks in the United States B．there are 78 million cars and trucks in the United States

C．there are 24 million cars and trucks equipped with air-bags in the United States

D．there are 78 million cars and trucks equipped with air-bags in the United States

正确答案：D 解析：“防护气囊位于方向盘的，所以司机应该……”此题考查对段意的理解。根据文章第四段的大意可知A、B、C均为应注意的事项，因此选D。

59． Adjustable steering wheels should______. A．be pointed toward the chest rather than the head B．be driven at 9 o’clock C．be driven at 3 o’clock

D．keep your arms away from an opening air bag

正确答案：A

解析：“可调试的盘应该对准前胸而不是头部。”此题为寻找并理解信息题。文章指出“只有这样，在车祸时，驾车人的头才能得到最有效的保护。”见文章倒数第三段第一句、第二句，意思是把两手分别放在方向盘上3点钟和9点钟的位置以便使手臂远离开着的防护气囊。

60． The air bag is a good safety device, but children 12 and under should always ride in the back seat buckled up means______.

A．air bags are no good for children

B．air bags are only good for the parents who have more than 12 children C．the best position for children to ride a car is in the back seat and be buckled up D．the front seat is unsafe for young people

正确答案：C 解析：“防护气囊是安全装置，但12岁以下的儿童应该总是坐在后座并且系上安全带意味着……”此题考查句意理解。根据文章所述观点，这是最好的保护儿童的方式。

Writing

91． For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write a composition on the topic “Failure Is the Mother of Success”. You should write no less than 120 words and you should base your composition on the outline(given in Chinese)below.1．一方面，失败是生活的一部分；2．另一方面，失败也许通向成功；3．我的观点。

正确答案： Failure Is the Mother of Success In one way of thinking, failure is what often happens. For some objective or subjective reasons, we often have to face failure in a complex society. No one can avoid failure in one or another aspect of daily life. In another way, failure may be a way towards success. It makes us think a lot. We learn the lessons and accumulate the experience, and then we try to get access to the possible solution. Failure can become treasures. Edison, the inventor of the light bulb, made hundreds of models that failed before he

found the right way to make one. In my opinion, failure isn’t always a bad thing. We will have a more realistic view about ourselves and the world around us. As people often say, failure is the mother of success. A temporary loser does not necessarily mean a permanent loser. Grasping opportunity, everyone can succeed with his or her efforts.
