第1题

The industrial societies have been extremely productive during the last two centuries. The
economic advance has been remarkable. During this relatively short period of time, greater changes in people's living conditions have occurred than in the thousands of years which preceded.

During the past 200 years the world population has increased 6 times, the annual world output has increased 80 times, and the distance a person can travel has gone up 1,000 times. There has also been much recent progress in art, culture, learning, and science. Such changes have led to a high rate of production and growth of the economy.

Economists fear that within the next 100 to 150 years, the earth's resources will become very scarce. Their fears are partly justified, but we should not be afraid. Industrial civilization adapts to new knowledge. By advancing knowledge, we not only create new forms of resources, but we also find ways to economize their use. Advanced modern knowledge can feed the hungry people of the world and improve their standard of living.

The figures in the second paragraph are used for the following purposes EXCEPT______.

A.prediction.

B.contrast.

C.definition.

D.explanation.

听力原文:Los Angeles today is the second largest city in America, sprawling over 464 squar
e miles along the southern California coast. It is the center of the entertainment industry, end it has a balmy climate of mostly sunny days.

But there was a time when Les Angeles was nothing more than a tiny Indian village. The Spanish expedition searching for Monterey Bay camped there the night of August 1,1769. Twelve years later, other Spaniards started a settlement at the village, which remained unchanged for decades. Yankee sea traders used the settlement as a port, and the California gold rush brought some new economic life to the village, but the town remained quite small. It was not until the completion of the transcontinental railroads in 1869, and the discovery of oil in the 1890s, that the population began to grow.

Later, during the two world wars, Los Angeles experienced move growth, in part because of the new airplane industry. At about the same time, the arrival of two New York motion picture producers in search of sunny weather marked the beginning of an entertainment industry that has become a multibillion-dollar industry today. In just the past 100 years, this tiny sea village has grown into the sprawling metropolis that we know today.

(27)

A.European expeditions in the 1700s.

B.Famous sites in Los Angeles.

C.The growth of Los Angeles.

D.The entertainment industry.

听力原文: What kind of car we will drive by the year 2020? Rather different from the type
we know today. With the next decade bringing greater change than the past 50 years, people who will design the models of tomorrow believe that environmental problems may well accelerate the pace of the car's development. The vision is that of a machine with 3 wheels instead of 4, electrically-powered, environmentally clean and able to drive itself along intelligent roads, e quipped with built-in power supplies. Future cars will pick up the fuel during long journeys from a power source built into the, road, or stored in small quantities for traveling in the city. Instead of today's seating arrangement two in front, two or three behind, all facing forward, the 2020 car will have an interior with adults and children in a family circle. This view of future car is based on a much more sophisticated road system. Cars will be automatically controlled by a computer. All the driver will have to do is to say where to go and the computer will do the rest. It will become impossible for cars to crash into one another. The technology already exists for the car to become a true automobile.

What is the designer's vision of the cars of tomorrow?

A.They will be much bigger.

B.They will have more seats.

C.They will have three wheels.

D.They will need intelligent drivers.

第6题

I would like to apply for the post of Personnel Officer with Anglia Bank, as advertised in
the Daily News on 19 October.

I have a BA in French from the University of London. I am following a part-time course in Personnel Management at the Oxford College of Management, and I hope to pass the Diploma in Personnel Management at the end of December.

When I left university, I worked for a year in a computer company near Cambridge. Then I moved back to London to work as a French teacher in a large school, where I stayed for two years. During this time, I did some part-time work as a language trainer with factory managers, which I very much enjoyed.

Three years ago, I joined Carter's Bank, where for the past year I have worked as Assistant Personnel Officer, dealing mainly with complaints from members of staff.

Having worked in a similar organisation to yours, I feel I am fully prepared for the challenges of this job.

Yours faithfully

Angela Varley

第7题

The growth of population during the past few centuries is no proof that population will co
ntinue to grow straight upward toward infinity and doom. On the contrary, demographic history offers evidence that population growth has not been at all constant. According to paleo-ecologist Edward Deevey, the past million years show three momentous changes. The first, a rapid increase in population around one million B.C., followed the innovations of tool-making and tool-using. But when the new power from the use of tools had been exploited, the rate of world population growth fell and became almost stable.

The next rapid jump in population started perhaps 10,000 years ago, when men began to keep herds, plow and plant the earth. Once again when initial productivity gains had been absorbed, the rate of population growth abated.

These two episodes suggest that the third great change, the present rapid growth, which began in the West between 250 and 350 years ago, may also slow down when, or if technology begins to yield fewer innovations. Of course, the current knowledge revolution may continue without foreseeable end. Either way contrary to popular belief in constant geometric growth-population can be expected in the long run to adjust to productivity. And when one takes this view, population growth is seen to represent economic progress and human triumph rather than social failure.

Which of the following is net true according to the passage?

A.Human population expands at an exponential rate.

B.Population growth has shown fluctuation in demographic history.

C.Population growth can not be regarded as a social failure.

D.Increase in population is related to productivity.

第9题

Middle-class teenagers are less intelligent than a generation ago due to the dumbing down
of youth culture and school tests, a new study suggests. IQ tests show that scores for the average 14- year-old have dropped by more than two points between 1980 and 2008. For those in the upper half of the intelligence scale--a group typically dominated by the children of middle-class families-- average IQ scores were six points down on 28 years ago. It is the first time IQ scores have fallen for any age group during the past century.

Leisure time is increasingly taken up with playing computer games and watching TV instead of reading and holding conversations. Education experts said a growing tendency in schools to "teach to the test" was affecting youngsters' ability to think laterally. Other studies have shown how pervasive teenage youth culture is, and what we see is parents' influence on IQ slowly diminishing with age. Previous studies have claimed that using text messages and email can temporarily reduce IQ by causing concentration to drop, while smoking marijuana has also been linked with a decline in IQ.

根据以下资料,回答下列各题: Graduating seniors may face higher risk for job burnout (筋疲力尽,枯竭.than their parents generation, say business and career experts. One of those grads,22-year-old Ruth Igielnik, kicked off her career just weeks after graduating from the University of Maryland. Igielnik should be familiar with stretching her boundaries. She admits classes were an "after thought" during the past year because she toiled from two to five hours every school night as student overseer of 300campus groups. But new grads in entry-level career jobs should resist early urges to sacrifice personal time in exchange for a faster climb to the top, warns career consultant Alexandra Levit, specializing in so-called millennials, the generation born from about 1980 to 1995. "You have to go out of your way to safeguard your time, but you have to go about it more subtly," she says. "It you sacrifice too much of your personal life at the start, you risk having a stressful, unbalanced life thats permanent. " in the next two to four years,retiring manager baby boomers will trigger a.wave of new openings for high-responsibility jobs。says Levit。A lot of those jobs will be filled by less-experienced workers-many’of them miUennials.“Theyre going to be given the responsibility they crave—because there’s No one else to take it.”Levit says.“Their sense of entitlement and their over—ambition are going to create a lot of stress for them.” A friend of Igieiniks,Merak Fine。is taking a few weeks off before joining the work:force as a legal assist{mt at a small law firm.Fine jokes that—after a heavy class schedule and all intense internship school has left her burned out before she’s even begun her career.So she worries that her career might steal time she should spend with friends and family. Compared the previous generations,many millennials are protesting again.st the idea that work is life.They’re intent on finding jobs that are meaningful both personally and to the community and the Environment. “The things that this generation is asking for--flexibility,balance,opportunities-are all things that Previous generations wilted,”says Dan Black,top campus recruiter at Ernst&Young. “But they feel much more embolden,erned(使勇敢)to ask for these things.They know they’re going to be a bigger part of the work force.” When at school during the past year。Eightieth
