You should decide on the best choice and mark the corresponding letter on the ANSWER SHEET with a single line through the center.Passage OneHow do people image life in

33、 the United States in the future? Below are some predictions made by RichardN. Farmer, who gave his light-hearted opinion of the “World of 2084. ”Since no one wants to do the dirty, uninteresting factory-line work any more, we decide not to. So we take some chimpanzees (黑猩猩),or if we really want som

34、e strength, some great apes ( 猿)，do a bit of scientific engineering here and there, and we create some animals, which are made for the factory line. They work their eight hours a day, and don t mind the repetition a bit.Jack Baxter, a common American of 2084, glanced at his stop-watch. He was slowin

35、g down; he could only run the kilometer in four minutes flat now, and when he was 80, he could do it in three-fifty. But, being 140 years old made a difference, regardless of what his doctor said. Jack had received his first cancer shot in 1981;he had received his man-made heart in 2014, before they

36、 really got those human ones perfected, so he wasn t a very good example of a complete human. But he felt pretty good; he had been one of the lucky ones, who had received his shots to make him young again before he turned 40, so he was still a young-looking fellow. Of course, he looked old in his wo

37、rld, since no one got much beyond 30-looking any more. And, of course, he would die; right now, fellows pushing 200 were in poor shape and kicking off .61. Who is NOT likely to do factory-line work in the future according to Farmer?A) humans B) chimpanzees C) apes D) dogs62. Why was Jack Baxter not

38、a very good example of a complete human?A) Because he is too old.B) Because he had a cancer shot when he was young.C) Because his heart was man-made.D) Because he looked older than other people.63. Why did Jack still look young at such an old age?A) Because everybody looked young in his world.B) Bec

39、ause he received a shot before 40.C) Because he had a young heart.D) Because he did exercise every day.64. What did Jacks doctor probably tell him?A) A 140-year-old can do what an 80-year-old does.B) He could run the kilometer within four minutes.C) Its natural that you will slow down as you grow ol

40、d.D) Running fast is good to his health.65. What does “kick off ” (the last two words) probably mean?A) do sports B) exercise C) take flights D) diePassage TwoThere is much discussion today about whether economic growth is desirable. At an earlier period, our desire for material wealth may have been

41、 justified. Now, however, this desire for more than we need is causing serious problems. Even though we have good intentions, we may be producing too much, too fast.Those who criticize economic growth argue that we must slow down. They believe that society is approaching certain limits on growth. Th

42、ese include the fixed supply of natural resources, the possible negative effects of industry on the natural environment, and the continuing increase in the worlds population. As societyreaches these limits, economic growth can no longer continue, and the quality of life will decrease.People who want

43、 more economic growth, on the other hand, argue that even at the present growth rate there are still many poor people in the world. These proponents of economic growth believe that only more growth can create the capital needed to improve the quality of life in the world. Furthermore, they argue tha

44、t only continued growth can provide the financial resources required to protect our natural surroundings from industrialization.This debate over the desirability of continued economic growth is of vital importance to business and industry. If those who argue against economic growth are correct, the

45、problems they mention cannot be ignored. To find a solution, economists and the business community must pay attention to these problems and continuediscussing them one another.66. According to those who argue against economic growth, we should slow down for the following reasons EXCEPT that .A) the

46、world population is ever increasingB) our natural surroundings are in danger of being destroyed by industryC) the fixed supply of natural resources marks a point beyond which economic growth cannot continueD) more efforts should be made to improve the quality of our material life67. Those who want m

47、ore economic growth believe that continued economic growth .A) can provide the solution to all our social problems todayB) can provide us with more natural resources for industrializationC) can protect our environment from being polluted by industryD) is essential to the well-being of society as a w

48、hole68. According to the context, the word “ proponents (Li” ne 2, Para. 3) most probably refers to .A) disagreementsB) arguments in support of somethingC) people who argue for somethingD) people who argue against something69. What is the main topic of the passage?A) The advantages and disadvantages

49、 of economic growth.B) The present debate on economic growth.C) The contradiction between economists and the business community.D) The importance of the debate on economic growth.70. We can infer from the passage that the author s attitude towards the economic growth is .A) a matter of factB) affirm

50、ativeC) negativeD) worriedPassage ThreeTime spent in bookshop can be most enjoyable, whether you are a book-lover or merely you are there to buy a present. You may even have entered the shop just to find shelter from a sudden shower. Whatever the reason, you can soon become totally unaware of your s

51、urroundings. The desire to pick up a book with an attractive “dust-jacket ” is irresistible, although this method of selection ought not to be followed, as you might end up with a rather dull book. You soon become engrossed in some book or other, and usually it is only much later that you realize yo

52、u have spent far too much time there and must dash off to keep some forgotten appointment-without buying a book, of course.This opportunity to escape the realities of everyday life is, I think, the main attraction of a bookshop. There are not many places where it is possible to do this. A music shop

53、 is very much like a bookshop. You can wander round such places to your heart s content. If it is a good shop, no assistant will approach you with inevitable greeting: “Can I help you, sir? ” You needn t buy anything you don t want. In a bookshop an assistant should remain in the background until yo

54、u have finished browsing. Then, and only then, are his services necessary. Of course you may want to find out where a particular section is, but when he has led you there, the assistant should retire carefully and look as if he is not interested in selling a single book.You have to be careful not to

55、 be attracted by the variety of books in a bookshop. It is very easy to enter the shop looking for a book on ancient coins and to come out carrying a copy of the latest best-selling novel and perhaps a book about brass-rubbing-something that had only vaguely interested you up until then. This volume

56、 on the subject, however, happened to be so well illustrated and the part of the text you read proved so interesting that you just had to buy it. This sort of thing can be very dangerous. Apart from running up a huge account, you can waste a great deal of time wandering from section to section.71. W

57、hat does “dust-jacket” in the first paragraph probably mean?A) The title of a book.B) A kind of clothes.C) Book cover full of dust.D) Protecting paper cover of a book.72. In the author s opinion, what is the main attraction of a bookshop?A) You can spend much time in the bookshop.B) It has many books with attractive dust-jacket.C) It enables you to forget the realities of everyday life.D) You dont have to go for unpleasant appointments.73. According to the passage, what will happen in a good bookshop?A) Nobody will take notice of you.B) You will feel as if you were in a music shop.
