三、閱讀理解

36.根據(jù)以下資料，回答1~4題。
　　Many people use wood stoves and fireplaces to heat their homes．Scientists have become worried about the smoke that they give off．Harmful chemicals are in the smoke．The smoke is causing air pollution．The pieces of pollution, called soot, are floating in the air．They are too tiny to see．Scientists must use a microscope to see them.
　　Small amounts of soot are safe, but large amounts can be dangerous．The govenment wants to limit this kind of pollution．It may stop people from using their fireplaces.
　　The air is tested every day．When soot levels are high, more than 65 micrograms of soot per cubic meter, factories must stop making smoke．The government thinks that limit should be much lower.
Factories produce the most smoke and soot．But the government thinks that all types of burning should be limited．The soot levels from factories and homes could be limited．Home owners may have to install new wood stoves that they comply with the new law．Or, they may not be able to bum on days when the air quality is bad.
　　Residents of some towns are fined if they violate the burning ban．Scientists hope these new regulations will make the air cleaner and less harmful to breathe.
Why is it dangerous to burn too much wood?
A．The fire could burn you.
B．It"s not healthy to be too warm.
C．Harmful chemicals are released in the soot.
D．The smoke is filled with unseeable tiny pieces.

37.What could home owners do to comply with the new regulation?
A．Write a letter.
B．Ask for permission．
C．Use more electricity．
D．Install new low-soot fireplaces.

38.What happens to some residents who bum too much wood?
A．They could lose their homes．
B．They pay for the punishment．
C．They get sick from the smoke．
D．The fire could get out of control.

39.Why is the air quality tested every day?
A．Just in case someone asks．
B．Scientists like to take tests．
C．Scientists are not very busy．
D．To keep track of pollution levels.

40.根據(jù)以下資料，回答5~8題。
　　Children for whom school has no point
　　Many children do not go to school either because their parents want them at home as carers for siblings, or simply because their parents cannot be bothered to send them．Thousands more are not registered at any school at all, because of their families" unstable lives.
　　Underlying this dreadful situation there are two central truths．First of all, the problem of children not going to school often has more to do with their parents than with the children themselves．Secondly, once children go to school, we need to make sure that the experience is a positive one so that they want to keep on going.
　　In Britain, the Ministry of Education has introduced a complex package of sticks and carrots to persuade Schools to bring truants" and excluded children back into the classroom．It is paying grants so that a thousand schools can set up special units to help these children．Schools receive the grant if they bring a target number of children back to school; if they do not meet the target, the grant is withdrawn.
　　Parents are the subject of this campaign, too: the Home Office has introduced fines for parents who fail to send their children to school, and has given the police power to pick up truants on the streets.
　　Truant=a child who does not go to school when he or she should.
According to the text, there are thousands of children who __.
A．run away from school
B．live in stable families
C．a(chǎn)re not registered at any school
D．stay at home doing the housework

41.Part of the problem is __.
A．that people feel very emotional
B．that parents worry their children at school
C．that these children think education is a waste of time
D．that there are not enough police to pick up truants on the streets

42.The Ministry of Education will take away a school"s grant if__.
A．they do not reach their objectives
B．they do not contact parents
C．children escape from school
D．they meet their targets

43.The Home Office __.
A．has given powers to the police to pick up parents
B．will give money to parents to send children to school
C．will go to the family and persuade parents and their children
D．will punish parents who fail to send their children to school

44.根據(jù)以下資料，回答9~12題。
　　If you are like most people, your intelligence varies from season to season．You are probably a lot sharper in the spring than you are at any other time of the year．A noted scientist, Ellsworth Huntington (1876-1947), concluded from other men"s work and his own among peoples in different climates that climate and temperature have a definite effect on our mental abilities.
　　He found that cool weather is much more favorable for creative thinking than is summer heat．This does not mean that all people are less intelligent in the summer than they are during the rest of the year．It does mean, however, that the mental abilities of large numbers of people tend to be lowest in the summer.
　　Spring appears to be the best period of the year for thinking．One reason may be that in the spring man"s mental abilities are affected by the same factors that bring about great changes in all nature.
　　Fall is the next-best season, then winter．As for summer, it seems to be a good time to take a long vacation from thinking!
Ellsworth Huntington decided that climate and temperature have __.
A．a(chǎn) great effect on everyone"s intelligence
B．same effect on most persons" intelligence
C．some effect on a few persons" intelligence
D．no effect on most persons" intelligence

45.It seems that the cold winter __.
A．increases the ability to think
B．is the best time for thinking
C．is better for thinking than is very warm weather
D．decreases the ability to think

46.One possible reason why spring is the best season for thinking is that __.
A．a(chǎn)ll nature, including man, is growing then
B．it lasts longer than the other seasons
C．it is not too warm and not too cold
D．both B and C

47.According to the passage, any vacations from thinking should be taken __.
A．several times throughout the year
B．during spring and fall
C．during the summer
D．a(chǎn)s seldom as possible

48.Ultimately, the new study should help scientists to __.
A．lower water levels
B．change their opinions
C．better predict climate change
D．bury sea-level cities like Dhaka and Shanghai

49.What was the main finding of the study?
A．The warming of the world"s oceans is not a threat.
B．That not enough is being done about global warming.
C．There is a puzzling gap between the model and observations.
D．Ocean waters have warmed faster than scientists had previously thought.

50.The rise in water levels is especially dangerous for small island nations and __.
A．low-lying urban areas
B．a(chǎn)ll coastal cities
C．people who live on the beach
D．Shanghai

51.根據(jù)以下資料，回答16~19題。
　　The world"s oceans have warmed 50 percent faster over the last 40 years than previously thought due to climate change, Australian and US climate researchers reported Wednesday．Higher ocean temperatures expand the volume of water, contributing to a rise in sea levels that is covering small island nations and threatening to destroy the low-lying, densely-populated low regions around the globe.
　　The study, published in the British journal Nature, adds to a growing scientific chorus of warnings about the pace and consequences rising oceans．It also serves as a corrective to a massive report issued last year by the Nobel-winning UN Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), according to the authors.
　　Rising sea levels are driven by two things: the thermal expansion of sea water, and additional water from melting sources of ice．Both processes are caused by global warming．The ice sheet that sits atop Greenland, for example, contains enough water to raise world ocean levels by seven meters, which would bury sea-level cities from Dhaka to Shanghai.
　　Trying to figure out how much each of these factors contributes to rising sea levels is critically important to understanding climate change, and forecasting future temperature rises, scientists say．But up to now, there has been a puzzling gap between the projections of computer-based climate models, and the observations of scientists gathering data from the oceans.
　　The new study, led by Catia Domingues of the Centre for Australian Weather and Climate Research, is the first to reunite the models with observed data．Using new techniques to assess ocean temperatures to a depth of 700 meters from 1961 to 2003, it shows that thermal warming contributed to a 0.53 millimeter-per-year rise in sea levels rather than the 0.32 mm rise reported by the IPCC.
What happens when the ocean"s temperature rises?
A．It causes sea levels to rise.
B．It causes sea levels to decrease.
C．It causes sea levels to remain unchanged．
D．It causes sea flood all over the globe.

52.Which of the following is true according to the passage?
A．New Yorkers are usually open with strangers.
B．People from the South are usually considered good hosts．
C．The friendliest Americans travel from place to place.
D．Different parts have different customs and habits.

53.The differences lie in the following except __ of the parts.
A．the weather
B．the history
C．geography
D．the names

54.New Englanders are often thought of as being __.
A．hospital and warm
B．out going
C．friendly and helpful
D．a(chǎn)ll of the above

55.根據(jù)以下資料，回答20~23題。
　　There are many stereotypes about the character of people in various parts of the United States．In the Northeast and Midwest, people are said to be closed and private．In the South and West, however, they are often thought of as being more open and hospitable．Ask someone from St．Louis where the nearest sandwich shop is, and he or she will politely give you directions．A New Yorker might eye you at first and after deciding it is safe to talk to you, might give you a rather unexpected explanation．A person from Georgia might be very kind about directing you and even suggest some different places to eat．A Texan just might take you to the place and treat you to lunch.
　　American stereotypes are abundant．New Englanders are often thought of as being friendly and helpful．Southerners are known for their hospitality and warmth．People from the western part of the United States are often considered very outgoing．These differences in character can be traced to different factors such as climate, living conditions, and historical development.
When travelling from place to place, Americans themselves are often surprised at the differing degrees of friendliness in the United States.
The main idea of the passage is __.
A．even Americans are surprised at the big differences among themselves
B．there are many differences in character in different parts of the USA
C．there are many reason for the differences
D．stereotypes about people are not necessarily true
