Sheet music or printed music, too, is material culture. Scholars once defined folk music cultures as those in which people learn and sing music by ear rather than from print, but research shows mutual influence among oral and written sources during the past few centuries in Europe, Britain, and America. Printed versions limit variety because they tend to standardize any song, yet they stimulate people to create new and different songs. Besides, the ability to read music notation has a far-reaching effect on music and, when it becomes widespread, on the music culture as a whole.
One more important part of music's material culture should be singled out. the influence of the electronic media--radio, record player, tape recorder, television, and videocassette, with the future promising talking and singing computers and other developments. This is all part of the "information revolution", a twentieth-century phenomenon as important as the industrial revolution was in the nineteenth. These electronic media are not just limited to modem nations; they have affected music cultures all over the globe.

Questions 21 to 25 are based on the following passage.
There is a difference between science and technology. Science is a method of answering theoretical questions; technology is a method of solving practical problems. Science has to do with discovering the facts and relationships between observable phenomena in nature and with establishing theories that serve to organize these facts and relationships; technology has to do with tools, techniques, and procedures for implementing the finding of science.
Another distinction between science and technology has to do with the progress in each.
Progress in science excludes the human factor. Scientists, who seek to comprehend the universe and know the truth within the highest degree of accuracy and certainty, cannot pay attention to their own or other people's likes or dislikes or to popular ideas about the fitness of things. What scientists discover may shock or anger people-as did Darwin's theory of evolution. But even an unpleasant truth is more than likely to be useful; besides, we have the choice of refusing to believe it! But hardly so with technology; we do not have the choice of refusing to hear the sonic boom produced by a supersonic aircraft flying overhead; we do not have the option of refusing to breathe polluted air; and we do not have the option of living in a non-atomic age. Unlike science progress, technology must be measured in terms of the human factor. The legitimate purpose of technology is to serve people in general, not merely some people; and future generations, not merely those who presently wish to gain advantage for themselves. Technology must be humanistic if it is to lead to a better world.
21. The difference between science and technology lies in that _____.
A) the former provides answers to theoretical questions while the latter to practical problems
B) the former seeks to comprehend the universe while the latter helps change the material world
C) the former aims to discover the inter-connections of facts and the rules that explain them while the latter, to discover new designs and ways of making the things we use in our daily life
D) all of the above
22. Which of the following may be representative of science？
A) The improvement of people's life.
B) The theory of people's life.
C) Farming tools.
D) Mass production.
23. According to the author, scientific theories _____.
A) must be strictly objective
B) usually take into consideration people's likes and dislikes
C) should conform. to popular opinions
D) always appear in perfect and finished forms
24. The author states that technology itself _____.
A) is responsible for widespread pollution and resource exhaustion
B) should serve those who wish to gain advantage for themselves
C) will lead to a better world if put to wise use
D) will inevitably be for bad purpose
25. The tone of the author in this passage is _____.
A) positive
B) negative
C) factual
D) critical

？Read the following article about CTO(Chief Technology Officer)and the questions．
？For each question(15-20)，mark one letter(A，B，C or D)on your Answer Sheet．
Of the many things a CTO(Chief Technology Officer)must do to be successful，the one that can never be neglected is simple：maintaining focus on helping your company produce revenue and profits．On a purely superficial level，this sounds like the job of the CEO or vice president of sales，but successful CTOs know that being closely involved in the revenue game is the key ingredient to the growth of your company and your career．
For some technology staff aspiring to the CTO position，there is a sense that getting too close to the money sullies the purity of the greater technology mission Of building elegant products and systems．This may be true in an academic environment，but in the corporate world，those elegant products and systems need to help produce a profit．The CTO works at the strategic intersection of technology and business，and the unique talents of the CTO mean that he or she can leverage technology for the good of the business like no one else on the executive team．
To drive revenue in a company，the CTO must work as 3 partner with the CEO and vice president of sales．Quite often，the tech leaders in an organization sit back and wait for executive managers to tell them what to do and then deliver requirements．A successful CTO realizes that the process of working through ideas for new products and services demands his or her participation from idea origination to final implementation．
While working as a partner with key executives at a company，the CTO should also keep in close contact with the sales staff members who are out talking to customers on a regular basis．Asking three simple questions of sales staff on a regular basis helps keep the CTO in the loop on the realities of external market conditions：1)What are our customers asking for today？2)What are customers looking for in the next 90 days？And 3)How do customers envision their needs developing in the next year to 18 months？These answers help the CTO with budgeting，strategic planning，and product development，and most importantly，helping to drive revenue and profitability over the short and long term．
Finally，as an externally facing executive，the CTO must always have time for existing and potential customers．This means accompanying your sales staff on sales calls and understanding the challenges that your customers face．The CTO can then use the feedback to help the company serve customers more effectively and drive revenue．That's what it's a11 about．
According to the author，a successful CTO
A．is like a CEO or vice president of sales．
B．can convert technology into the good of the business．
C．real izes that he or she should take part in the developing of new products and services
D．should keep in close contact with existing and potential customers．

Questionsare based on the following passage．
Could you reproduce Silicon Valley elsewhere， or is there something unique about it？
It wouldn"t be surprising if it were hard to reproduce in other countries， because you couldn"treproduce it in most of the US either．What does it take to make a Silicon Valley？
It"s the right people．If you could get the right ten thousand people to move from Silicon Valley to Buffalo， Buffalo would become Silicon Valley．
You only need two kinds of people to create a technology hub （中心） : rich people and nerds （痴迷科研的人）．
Observation bears this out．Within the US， towns have become star，up hubs if and only if they have both rich people and nerds．Few startups happen in Miami， for example， because although it"s full of rich people， it has few nerds．It"s not the kind of place nerds like．
Whereas Pittsburgh has the opposite problem: plenty of nerds， but no rich people．The top US Computer Science departments are said to be MIT， Stanford， Berkeley， and Carnegie-Mellon．MITyielded Route 128．Stanford and Berkeley yielded Silicon Valley．But what did Carnegie-Mellon yield in Pittsburgh？ And what happened in Ithaca， home of Cornell University， which is also high on the list？
I grew up in Pittsburgh and went to college at Cornell， so I can answer for both．The weather is terrible， particularly in winter， and there"s no interesting old city to make up for it， as there is inBoston．Rich people don"t want to live in Pittsburgh or Ithaca．So while there"re plenty of hackers （电脑迷） who could start startups， there"s no one to invest in them
Do you really need the rich people？ Wouldn"t it work to have the government invest in the nerds？
No， it would not．Startup investors are a distinct type of rich people．They tend to have a lot of experience themselves in the technology business．This helps them pick the right startups， and means they can supply advice and connections as well as money．And the fact that they have a personal stake in the outcome makes them really pay attention．
What do we learn about Silicon Valley from the passage？ 查看材料
A.Its success is hard to copy anywhere else．
B.It is the biggest technology hub in the US．
C.Its fame in high technology is incomparable．
D.It leads the world in information technology．

everyday products such as beverage containers, toys, and furniture.The widespread use of plastics demands proper disposal of plastic waste.Plastics make up almost 13 percent of the urban solid waste stream, a dramaticincrease from 1960, when plastics were less than one percent of the wastestream. The largest category of plastics are found in containers and packaging(e.g. soft drink bottles, lids, shampoo bottles), but they are also found indurable (e.g. appliances, furniture) and nondurable goods (e.g. diapers, trashbags, utensils, and medical devices）. The recycling rate for different types ofplastics varies greatly, resulting in an overall plastic recycling rate of only8 percent, or 2.7 million tons in 2011.
Currently, the UShas the capacity to recycle plastics at a greater rate as a latest technologyhas come into being that helps in converting plastic waste disposal intoa good source of green fuel. A new process for turning plastics into fuel wasinvented. First, many different kinds of unwashed plastics are melted together.Then a special chemical is used to turn the fluid into a vapor（蒸汽）. Thisreduces the plastic to its most basic elements to make it have a high fuelvalue. It is tested that 86 percent of what goes in comes out as fuel. And 8percent of the recycled plastic is used to run the system. This technology willreduce the country’s dependence on foreign oil and theamount of plastic waste in its landfills（垃圾填埋场）．
Scientists sayplastic-to-oil technology is still new and developing. They say it is not yetknown if the process is environmentally friendly. And some question whetherturning plastics into oil can even be considered “recycling”.Carson Max is with the publication Resource Recycling, a magazine that reportson the plastic recycling industry. He says because there is a lot of plasticwaste and a great demand for oil, the recycling technology may create greatchanges in both industries. “So they’re getting value from something that would otherwise go to thelandfill, things that wouldn’t be accepted into a recycler.”
26. According to the article, the great increase in use ofplastic goods requires_______.
A. richer source of green fuel
B. more categories of durable plastics
C. faster development of plastic products
D. more efficient disposal of plastic waste
27. The word “converting” inParagraph 2 most probably means “_______”．
A. coloring
B. inventing
C. consuming
D. transforming
28. What will the plastic-to-oil technology result in？
A. Less dependence on imported oil
B. Increase in plastic waste
C. Production of more plastic goods
D.Disappearance of landfills
29. What is Carson Max’s attitude towards the plastic-to-oiltechnology？
A. Positive
B. Negative
C. Critical
D. Indifferent
30. What is the passage mainly about？
A. The important function of plastics in everyday life
B. The new technology of plastic waste disposal
C. The development of plastics industry
D. The categories of plastics

Deeply involved with this new technology is a breed of modern businessman who have a growing respect for the economic value of doing business abroad. In modern markets, success overseas often helps support domestic business efforts.
Overseas assignments are becoming increasingly important to advancement within executive ranks. The executive stationed in another country no longer need fear being "out of sight and out of mind, " He or she can be sure that the overseas effort is central to the company's plan for success, and that promotions often follow or accompany an assignment abroad. If an employee can succeed in a difficult assignment overseas, superiors will have greater confidence in his or her ability to cope back in the United States where cross-cultural considerations and foreign language issues are becoming more and more prevalent (普遍的).
Thanks to a variety of relatively inexpensive communications devices with business applications, even small businesses in the United States are able to get into international markets.
English is still the international language of business. But there is an ever growing need for people who can speak another language. A second language isn't generally required to get a job in business, but having language skills gives a candidate the edge when other qualifications appear to be equal.
The employee posted abroad who speaks the country's principal language has an opportunity to fast - forward certain negotiations, and can have the cultural insight to know when it is better to move more slowly. The employee at the home office who can communicate well with foreign clients over the telephone or by fax machine is an obvious asset to the firm.
What is the author's attitude toward high- tech communications equipment？
A．Critical.
B．Prejudiced.
C．Indifferent.
D．Positive
