    A

    Ten years ago I used to be very fit. I rode a bike to work and I got a lot of exercise at weekends. I used to play tennis a lot and go for long walks. In those days I didn’t earn very much. I had a job in an office. It wasn’t a very good job but I had a lot of time to do the things I enjoyed doing. Then, about eight years ago, I got a much better job. The pay was better, but the hours were a lot longer. I bought a car and drove to work every day. I began to take people out to lunch. And I began to put on weight, too. I stopped playing tennis and going for long walks at weekends because I just didn’t have any time for things like that any more. There’s a lot of stress in my job. Perhaps that is why I started drinking more than I used to. For example, I used to have only half a glass of whisky when I got home, but then I started filling my glass to the top, and instead of having one glass, I would have several. I started smoking a lot, too. I never used to smoke at all. Two months ago I had a heart attack. At first I just couldn’t believe it. Luckily it wasn’t very serious. The doctor advised me to stop smoking and to eat less. He also advised me to work less and get more exercise. But I just haven’t any time! My job takes everything out of me! Sometimes I wonder if I should get another job. Perhaps I could do something like I used to do. But if I do that, I won’t earn as much. I have a family to support. I have to think of them, too. I just don’t know what I should do. What do you think?

    1.Compared with ten years ago, what is worse for the author now?

    A. His job. B. His pay.

    C. His means of transport. D. His health.

    A. He got higher pay.

    B. His working hours weren’t long.

    C. He found it very stressful.

    D. He had little free time at weekends.

    3.After the author had a heart attack, the doctor advised him _____.

    A. not to work any longer

    B. to take a long vacation abroad

    C. to stop smoking and take exercise

    D. not to eat out any more

    4.What can we learn about the author?

    A. The author is not sure what he should do now.

    B. The author has taken the doctor’s advice.

    C. The author has got another new job.

    D. The author feels much better now.

    One hundred and thirteen million Americans have at least one bank-issued credit card. They give their owners automatic credit in stores, restaurants, and hotels, at home, across the country, and they make many banking services available as well. More and more of these credit cards can be read automatically, making it possible to withdraw or deposit money in scattered locations, whether or not the local branch bank is open. For many of us the “cashless society” is not on the horizon---it’s already here.

    While computer offer these conveniences to consumers, they have many advantages for sellers too. Electronic cash registers can do much more than simply ring up sales. They can keep a wide range of records, including who sold what, when and to whom. This information allows businessmen to keep track of their list of goods by showing which items are being sold and how far they are moving. Decisions to reorder or return goods to suppliers can then be made. At the same time these computers record which hours are busiest and which employees are the most efficient, allowing personnel and staffing assignments to be made accordingly. And they also identify preferred customer for promotional campaigns. Computers are relied on by manufacturers for similar reasons. Computer analyzed marketing reports can help to decide which products to emphasize now, which to develop for the future and which to drop. Computers keep track of goods in stock, of raw materials on hand, and even of the production process itself.

    Numerous other commercial enterprises, from theaters to magazine publishers, from gas and electric utilities to milk processors, bring better and more efficient services to consumers through the use of computers.

    1.From the last sentence of the first paragraph we learn that __________ .

    A. in the future all the Americans will use credit cads

    B. credit cards are mainly used in the United States today

    C. nowadays many Americans do not pay in cash

    D. it is now more convenient to use credit cards than before

    2.If computers record which hours are busiest and which employees are the most efficient, what will businessmen do?

    A. They will fire some employees and raise the work efficiency.

    B. They will arrange for different employees to do different jobs according to their abilities and performance.

    C. They will assign more work for the employees to do.

    D. They will allow the personnel to do whatever work they want to do.

    3.What does the underlined phrase “ring up sales” in paragraph two mean?

    A. make an order of goods.

    B. record sales on a cash register.

    C. call the sales manager.

    D. keep track of the goods in stock.

    4.What does the passage mainly discuss?

    A. Approaches to the commercial use of computers.

    B. Advantages of credit cards in business.

    C. Significance of automation in commercial enterprises.

    D. Conveniences brought about by computers in business.

    The Regional Director of the National Heritage Conservation Commission (国家遗产保护委员会) Kagosi Mwamulowe said the Barotse Plains is unique and it deserves to be on the list of the World Heritage Sites.

    Mr. Mwamulowe said the Barotse Plains deserves to be included on the World Heritage List because it has a rich cultural heritage which includes the burial sites of former kings.

    The Director said he hoped that the landscape would be declared as a heritage site next year in June. He also said it was important to protect Zambia’s unique culture for education and entertainment.

    Chief Natural Heritage Officer Muyumbwa Ndiyoi said there will be a lot of benefits when the Barotse Landscape is declared a World Heritage Site because it will attract many tourists and business investments will increase.

    Mr. Ndiyoi said the site will also benefit young people as knowledge will be passed down from generation to generation.

    He was reacting to a question from Nalolo District Labour Officer Jason Ngoma who wanted to know how the people of Western Province will benefit once the Barotse Landscape is declared a World Heritage Site.

    And University of Zambia Lecturer Charles Namate said there is a need for the site to be included on the World Heritage List because 50 years after its independence Zambia only has one heritage site, which is the Victoria Falls.

    Lecturer Namate said the Barotse Landscape was facing a lot of environmental degradation, and that’s why there is a need to recognize the value of its landscape and the memories of dead kings.

    The National Heritage Conservation Commission together with the Ministry of Chiefs and Traditional Affairs are in Western Province to hold meetings with Heads of Government Departments. The Commission also held closed-door meetings with the Litunga Lubosi Imwiko II of the Barotse Royal Establishment.

    1.What do we know about the Barotse Plains?

    A. It has royal tombs.

    B. It is being well protected.

    C. It is not far from the Victoria Falls.

    D. It’ll be listed as a World Heritage Site soon.

    2.Mr. Ndiyoi believes that if the Barotse Plains is declared a World Heritage Site, _____.

    A. it won’t benefit the people of Western Province

    B. it will attract many foreign students and researchers

    C. it will contribute to the local economic development

    D. more people will start to learn about Zambia’s culture

    3.In the text, Lecturer Namate expressed his concern about _____.

    A. the future of the Barotse Plains

    B. the development of Western Province

    C. the development of tourism in Zambia

    D. the environmental problems of the Barotse Plains

    4.What can we infer from the text?

    A. Zambia only has two World Heritage Sites.

    B. The Barotse Landscape has been partly destroyed.

    C. The Barotse Landscape issue is still being discussed.

    D. Young people in Zambia don’t know about Barotse culture.
