2.There was one thought that air pollution affected only the area immediately around large cities with factories and heavy automobile traffic.At present,we realize that although these are the areas with the worst air pollution,the problem is actually worldwide.On several occasions over the past decade,a heavy cloud of air pollution has covered the east of the United States and brought health warnings in rural areas away from any major concentration of manufacturing and automobile traffic.In fact,the very climate of the entire earth may be infected by air pollution.Some scientists consider that the increasing concentration of carbon dioxide in the air resulting from the burning of coal and oil is creating a"greenhouse effect".If this view is correct and the world's temperature is raised only a few degrees,much of the polar ice cap will melt and cities such as New York,Boston,Miami,and New Orleans will be in water.
Another view,less widely held,is that increasing particular matter in the atmosphere is bloc-king sunlight and lowering the earth,s temperature-a result that would be equally disastrous.A drop of just a few degrees could create something close to a new ice age,and would make agriculture difficult or impossible in many of our top farming areas.Today we do not know for sure that either of these conditions will happen ( though one recent government report drafted by experts in the field concluded that the greenhouse effect is very possible).Perhaps,if we are lucky enough,the two tendencies will offset each other and the world's temperature will stay about the same as it is now.Driven by economic profits,people neglect the damage on our environment caused by the"advanced civilization".Maybe the air pollution is the price the human beings have to pay for their development.But is it really worthwhile?
64.At the beginning of the passage,the writer tells us that air pollutionC
A.caused widespread damage in the countryside
B.had bad effects on people's health in the city
C.existed merely in urban and industrial areas
D.affected the entire eastern half of the United States
65.The word"offset"in the second paragraph could be replaced byA
A.make up for 
B.slip into   
C.catch up with   
D.set up
66.It can be concluded thatD
A.almost no temperature changes have occurred over the past decade
B.the world's temperature will remain constant in the years to come
C.raising the world's temperature only a few degrees would not do much harm to life on earth
D.lowering the world's temperature merely a few degrees would lead major farming areas to disaster
67.This passage is mainly aboutB
A.the greenhouse effect   
B.the potential effect of air pollution
C.the burning of fossil fuels 
D.the likelihood of a new ice age.

20.No one knows (61)exactly (exact) how the earth began,as it happened so long ago.However,according to a widely(62)accepted (accept) theory,the universe began(63)with a"Big Bang"that threw matter in all (64)directions (direction).For several billion years after the"Big Bang",the earth was still just a cloud of dust.(65)What it was to become was (66)uncertain (certain) until between 4.5and 3.8billion years ago when the dust settled into a solid globe.The earth became so(67)violent (violence) that it was not clear (68)whether the shape would last or not.It exploded loudly with fire and rock.They were in time(69)to produce (produce) carbon dioxide,nitrogen,water vapour and other gases,which were to make the earth's atmosphere.What is even more important is that as the earth cooled down,water began to appear on(70)itssurface.

17.I found one time that helping someone could get you into a lot of trouble.
I was in the(41)ninth(nine) grade at the time,and we were having a final test.During the test,the girl(42)sitting(sit) next to me whispered something,but I didn't understand.Finally I found that she was trying to ask me(43)if/whetherI had an extra pen.She showed me that(44)hers(her) was out of ink and would not write.I happened to have an extra one,so I put it on her desk.
Later,after the test papers had been turned in,the teacher(45)asked(ask) me to stay in the room when all the other students were dismissed.As soon as we were alone she began to talk to me about how important it was(46)to stand(stand) on your own two(47)feet(foot) and be responsible for your own acts.For a long time,she talked about honesty and emphasized the fact(48)that.when people do something dishonest,they are really cheating themselves.She made me promise that I would think(49)seriously(serious) about all the things she had said,and then she told me I could leave.I walked out of the room wondering why she had chosen to talk to me(50)aboutall those things.
Later on,I found out that she thought I had cheated on the test.

4.When it comes to public speaking,the most important thing is to speak clearly.You want the audience(61)to hear(hear) everything you have to say when giving public speeches,not to question your words later(62)becausethey couldn't hear you.A good public speaker is the person who knows(63)howto speak clearly.
Practice(64)makes(make) perfect.Try practicing in front of a mirror,in front of your friends,or even in front of your pet dogs if you need help.
(65)Use(use) the proper tone when speaking.Most people find it easy to slip into a monotone voice,where every word that comes out of their mouth sounds the same.Not only(66)doesthis bore the audience,but it also makes you hard to understand and follow.
Pronounce your words carefully and clearly.This means(67)using(use) the right pronunciation of words.If you have any questions on how a word is pronounced,ask for help beforehand.
Speak slowly so that the audience can hear you.If your natural speed is fast,practice speaking at a(68)slower(slow) pace than usual before your speech.
Project your voice when(69)needed(need).You don't need to scream at the audience,but your voice rises(70)slightly(slight)if people in the back of the room can't hear your speech.

3.There is a 9-year-old kid sitting at his desk and all of a sudden,there is a puddle (一滩水) between his feet and the front of his pants are wet.He thinks his heart is going to stop because he cannot possibly imagine how this has happened.It's never happened before,and he knows that when the boys find out they will never let him forget it.When the girls find out,they'll never speak to him again as long as he lives.
The boy believes his heart is going to stop.He puts his head down and prays:"This is an emergency!I need help now!Five minutes from now I'm dead meat."

The boy pretends to be angry,but all the while is saying to himself."Thank God!"

Finally,at the end of the day,as they are waiting for the bus,the boy walks over to Susie and whispers:"You did that on purpose,didn't you?"Susie whispers back:"I wet my pants once too."
24.What is the boy's reaction to this incident at first?C
A.He is calm but worried.
B.He thinks he is going to die.
C.He is afraid and embarrassed.
D.He prays and asks for help from his teacher.

A.care          B.cheating
C.belief         D.contribution
26.After Susie spills the bowl of water in the boy's lap,D.
A.other students ask Susie for help and yell at her
B.the teacher sends the boy downstairs to clean up around his desk
C.the little boy becomes really angry and runs away to change his clothes
D.the little boy is saved from embarrassment and gains others'sympathy
27.From the story,we can conclude thatD.

"Excuse me,you can sit here,"he said.The man had reasonable pronunciation and looked studious (好学的),with a smile that made me feel as if I"d arrived for dinner in his living room.(31)B  I hadn't,and he didn't know me.I looked around the crowded train carriage as it moved along,there were  (32)D   people standing than sitting and we were in for a tough five hours-I had missed a seat as a result of my lack of organization.I had had every chance to buy a ticket the day before,while there were still seats available.

One thing standing out for me on that train was the free sense of community (团体) among

Three or four times,I was (45)B by university students who wanted to chat,and soon the audience was attracted by us.I began to feel the older passengers(46)A   the significance of what these youngsters were capable of,and they were proud of their young countrymen taking China to the rest of world through (47)C.
These youngsters talked with warmth,intelligence and sincerity (真诚),(48)A    with reasonable language skills. (49)D,China will find itself in good hands as the decades tick by.
