20、mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the centre.Passage OneQuestions 31 to 35 are based on the following passage. A recent study described coal as a “bridge to the future”. As the most plentiful fossil (化石) fuel in the world, coal has the possibility for filli

21、ng a growing proportion of the demand for energy. But problems cause some trouble to this promising old fuel. Coal is found around the globe, but three countries (the United States, the former Soviet Union and China) own nearly two thirds of all known coal reserves. At present rates of using coal, t

22、hese reserves would last the world more than 200 years, according to the estimates carefully made. Furthermore, scientists think the world probably has 15 times this much coal. While the United States has the largest share - more than a quarter - of the 786 billion tons of known world coal reserves,

23、 both the former Soviet Union and China produce almost as much coal as the U. S. does. In addition to the category of known reserves, the U.S. Geological Survey has calculated that the United States has an estimated 1.7 trillion (萬(wàn)億) tons of coal at depths of less than 3,000 feet. Unfortunately, muc

24、h of this coal is not easy to get with present technology or at present prices. To produce and use much more coal than we do today, a number of problems will have to be solved: capital at high interest rates, manpower, and transportation, including insufficient rail facilities. Environmental concern

25、s include the proper development of mine sites, possible changes in global climate caused by increased carbon dioxide from burning coal, and the objects that are sent out from coal stacks that wear out buildings, poison lakes, and damage human lungs.31.One of the advantages of coals is that _.A)it c

26、an improve global climateC)it is always easy to digB)there is a lot of itD)it doesnt pollute32.Which problem is NOT mentioned in the article?A)Difficulties in digging the coal.B)Pollution of the environment.C)What happens when the coal is used up.D)Insufficient rail facilities.33.Which country has t

27、he largest share of known world coalreserves?A)China.C)The former Soviet Union.B)The United States.D)The article doesnt tell us.34.How much coal does the United States have in known coal reserves?A)786 billion tons.C)Nearly 200 billion tons.B)1.7 billion tons.D)3,000 billion tons.35.According to the

28、 passage, which of the following statement isTRUE?A)The U. S. has about 1.7 trillion tons of coal at depths of more than 3,000 feet.B)Scientists think that all coal reserves have been found out.C)All coal is easy to get because we have modern technology.D)The U.S., the former Soviet Union and China

29、produce almost equal amounts of coal.Passage TwoQuestions 36 to 40 are based on the following passage. Ask three people to look out the same window at a busy street corner and tell you what they see. Chances are that you will receive three different answers. Each person sees the same scene, but each

30、 perceives something different about it. Perceiving goes on in our minds. Of the three people who look out the window, one may say that he sees a policeman giving a motorist a ticket. Another may say that he sees a rush-hour traffic jam at the intersection (十字路口). The third may tell you that he sees

31、 a woman trying to cross the street with four children in tow. For perception is the minds interpretation of what the senses - in this case our eyes - tell us. Many psychologists today are working to try to determine just how a person experiences or perceives the world around him. Using a scientific

32、 approach, these psychologists set up experiments in which they can control all of the factors. By measuring and charting the results of many experiments, they are trying to find out what makes different people perceive totally different things about the same scene.36.This passage is mainly about _.

33、A)how we seeB)learning about our minds through scienceC)what psychologists perceiveD)interesting experiments37.Seeing and perceiving are_.A)the same actionB)two actions carried on by the eyesC)two separate actionsD)actions that take place at different times38.Perceiving is an action that takes place

34、 _.A)in our eyesB)only when we think very hard about somethingC)under the directions of a psychologistD)in every persons mind39.Perception involves what _.A)our senses tell usC)we see with our eyes onlyB)our minds interpretD)both A and B40.Psychologists study perception by_ .A)setting up many experi

35、mentsC)looking out of windowsB)asking each other what they seeD)studying peoples eyesPassage ThreeQuestions 41 to 45 are based on the following passage. Time spent in a bookshop can be most enjoyable, whether you are a book lover or only there to buy a book as a present. You may even have entered th

36、e shop just to find shelter from a sudden shower. Whatever the reason, you can soon become totally unaware of your surroundings. The desire to pick up a book with an attractive design is irresistible, although this method of selection ought not to be followed, as you might end up with a rather unint

37、eresting book. You soon become lost in some book or other, and usually it is only much later that you realize you have spent far too much time there and must hurry to keep some forgotten appointment - without buying a book, of course. The opportunity to escape the realities of everyday life is, I th

38、ink, the main attraction of a bookshop. There are not many places where it is possible to do this. A music shop is very much like a bookshop. You can go to such places as much as you wish. If it is a good shop, no assistant will approach you with the greeting: “Can I help you, sir?” You neednt buy a

39、nything you dont want. In a bookshop, an assistant should remain in the background until you have finished reading. You may want to find out where a particular section is. Then, and only then, are his services necessary. But when he has led you there, the assistant should leave politely and look as

40、if he is not interested in selling a single book.41.The best title for this passage may be “_”.A)The Attraction of BookshopsC)Bookshops and Their AssistantsB)How to Spend Your TimeD)Buying Books42.According to the author, the best way to escape the realities of everyday life is _.A)to chat with assi
