　　Clearly if we are to participate in the society in which we live, we must communicate with other people．A great deal of communicating is performed on a person-to-person basis by the simple means of speech．If we travel in buses, buy things in shops, or eat in restaurants, we are likely to have conversations where we give information or opinions, receive news or comment, and very likely have our views challenged by other members of society．

　　Face to face contact is by no means the only form of communication and during the last two hundred years the art of mass communication has become one of the dominating factors of contemporary society．Two things, above others, have caused the enormous growth of the communication industry．Firstly, inventiveness has led to advances imprinting, telecommunications photography, radio and television．Secondly, speed has revolutionized the transmission(传输)and reception of communications so that local news often takes a back seat to national news, which itself is often almost eclipsed by international news．

　　No longer is the possession of information confined to a privileged minority．In the last century the wealthy man with his own library was indeed fortunate, but today there are public libraries．For years ago people used to flock to the cinema, but now far more people sit at home and turn on the TV to watch a programme that is being channeled into millions of homes．

　　Communication is no longer merely concerned with the transmission of information．The modem communication industry influences the way people live in society and broadens their horizons by allowing access to information, education and entertainment．The printing, broadcasting and advertising industries are all involved with informing, educating and entertaining．

　　Although a great deal of the material communicated by the mass media is very valuable to the individual and to the society of which he is part,the vast modem network of communications is open to abuse(滥用)．However, the mass media are with us for better, for worse, and there is no turning back．

(1)

In the first paragraph the writer emphasizes the ________ of face-to-face contact in social setting．
[　　]
A．	nature
B．	limitation
C．	creativity
D．	usefulness

(2)

[　　]
A．	local news used to be the only source of information
B．	local news still takes a significant place
C．	national news is becoming more popular
D．	international news is the fastest transmitted news

(3)

Which of the following statements is NOT true?
[　　]
A．	To possess information used to be a privilege．
B．	Public libraries have replaced private libraries．
C．	Communication means more than transmission．
D．	In formation influences ways of life and thinking．

(4)

From the last paragraph we can infer that the writer is ________．
[　　]
A．	indifferent to the harmful influence of the mass media
B．	happy about the flexible changes in the mass media
C．	pessimistic about the future of the mass media

　　In the near future some parts of the world may soon have a new kind of television. It is called high definition television or H-D-T-V. The main difference between H-D-T-V and normal television is the picture. It is more clear and detailed (明细). This is because H-D-T-V has many more points and lines that make a television image (图像). Every colour television picture contains thousands of red, green and blue points, They all come together as an image in the eye of the person

watching. The points are organized in lines that go across the television screen. There are more than 500 lines in a normal television. H-D-T-V has two times as many. To get this clear picture, you must have a big screen. Experts say people using a small screen will see little difference.

　　H-D-T-V also has clear sound. It is like the sound on a compact disc player (激光电唱机), or CD. All these improvements make H-D-T-V very costly. One kind in Japan now sells for more than 20 000 dollars. In the future, the cost is expected to be about 2 000 dollars. A major problem with H-D-T-V is its broadcast signal. The signal is bigger than for normal, because it carries more electronic in formation.

D．that the picture of an H-D-T-V is more clear and detailed

(2) A colour TV image is ________.

[　　]

A．made up of thousands of red, green and blue points

B．formed by the above-mentioned red, green and blue points which are organized in lines that go across the TV screen

C．a black-and-white picture

(3) An H-D-T-V has ________ lines.

[　　]

A．over 500

B．more than 250

C．more than 1 000

D．about 250

(4) If you want to get a clear and detailed picture from an H-D-T-V, you ________.

[　　]

A．must have the bigger signal for H-D-T-V

B．have to get a big screen

C．should have a compact disc player

D．both A and B

(5) According to the passage, which of the following is right?

[　　]

A．The H-D-T-V sets are not popular now because they are too expensive for most people.

B．The signal for an H-D-T-V is not bigger than that for the normal TV.

C．In the future an H-D-T-V will cost 10 times as much as it costs now.

D．In the future an H-D-T-V will be cheaper only because 2 000 dollars will be just equal to 20 000 dollars.

　　Institutional construction is needed to guarantee public participation in environmental protection, says a commentary in Dazhong Daily．An excerpt follows．

　　The State Environment Protection Administration(SEPA)last week released a set of guidelines on public participation in environmental impact(影响)assessment, encouraging direct involvement from the general public in the country’s environmental affairs．

　　This is the first official document on public involvement in the environmental sector, which will make government decisions in the sector more transparent and democratic．Last year, a series of environment issues plunged SEPA into an administrative accountability(问责)storm．The issues include a construction project that could lead to an ecological disaster in the Old Summer Palace in Beijing, water pollution in the Songhua Rive and disputes over the construction of a dam on the Nujing River．Then came the“environment impact assessment storm,”which showed the efforts made by the government in this aspect．

　　Although there are some articles on public involvement in the Environment Impact Assessment Law, they are very ambiguous and not practical．The temporary measures give specific arrangement procedures．It gives recognition and respect to the public rights to environment participation, and also shows the government’s open mind for better environment participation．But such a right of participation is still partial in the assessment stage．There is still a lack of arrangements in the policy-making and law-enforcement phases．

　　In a modern society, every citizen has a right to live in a good environment．Citizens should be able to participate based on their rights t know．Marking such temporary measures is a good way to realize citizens'right to participate．But more should be included, such as citizens'rights to participate in law-making, policy-making and law-enforcement．There should be an open mechanism to provide environment information, and a democratic system encouraging the public to participate in decision-making concerning the environment．

(1)

Which is not the last year’s environment issue?
[　　]
A．	a construction project leading to an ecological disaster in the Old Summer Palace
B．	water pollution in the Songhua River
C．	disputes over the construction of a dam on the Nujing River
D．	measures to guarantee public participation in environmental protection

(2)

The underlined word“transparent”in the third paragraph probably means?
[　　]
A．	clear
B．	doubt
C．	temporary
D．	clean

(3)

The best title of this passage is ________．
[　　]
A．	Public can help environment
B．	The serious environmental problems
C．	The government can protect the environment
D．	The public’s rights

(4)

Which of the following is not the citizens'right to help environmental protection?
[　　]
A．	the right to participate in making laws
B．	the right to be responsible for environmental disasters
C．	the right to participate in making policies

阅读理解：

　　(London)－If it really is what’s on the inside that counts, then a lot of thin people might be in trouble．

　　Some doctors now think that the internal fat surrounding important organs like the heart or liver could be as dangerous as the external fat which can be noticed more easily．

　　“Being thin doesn’t surely mean you are not fat,” said Dr Jimmy Bell at Imperial College．Since 1994, Bell and his team have scanned nearly 800 people with MRI machines to create “fat maps” showing where people store fat．

　　According to the result, people who keep their weight through diet rather than exercise are likely to have major deposits of internal fat, even if they are slim．

　　Even people with normal Body Mass Index scores can have surprising levels of fat deposits inside．Of the women, as many as 45 percent of those with normal BMI scores(20 to 25)actually had too high levels of internal fat．Among men, the percentage was nearly 60 percent．

　　According to Bell, people who are fat on the inside are actually on the edge of being fat．They eat too many fatty and sugary foods, but they are not eating enough to be fat．Scientists believe we naturally store fat around the belly first, but at some point, the body may start storing it elsewhere．

　　Doctors are unsure about the exact dangers of internal fat, but some think it has something to do with heart disease and diabetes．They want to prove that internal fat damages the body’s communication systems．

　　The good news is that internal fat can be easily burned off through exercise or even by improving your diet．“If you want to be healthy, there is no short cut．Exercise has to be an important part of your lifestyle,” Bell said．

(1)

What is this piece of news mainly about?
[　　]
A．	Thin people may be fat inside．
B．	Internal fat is of no importance．
C．	Internal fat leads to many diseases．
D．	Thin people also have troubles．

(2)

Doctors have found _________．
[　　]
A．	the exact dangers of internal fat
B．	internal fat is the cause of heart disease and diabetes
C．	being slim is not dangerous at all
D．	being slim doesn’t mean you are not fat inside

(3)

According to the passage, which of the following is WRONG?
[　　]
A．	Exercise can help to reduce the internal fat．
B．	People can get rid of internal fat by improving diet．
C．	Men are more likely to have too much internal fat．
D．	People with heart disease all have internal fat．

(4)

From the last paragraph, we can find that _________．
[　　]
A．	whether internal fat can lead to disease has been proved
B．	exercise plays in important role in people’s life for keeping healthy
C．	thin people usually have internal fat even if they are slim
D．	it is easier to burn off internal fat than external fat

(5)

　 Maybe ten-year-old Elizabeth put it best when she said to her father, "But, Dad, you can't be healthy if
you're dead." 　　
     Dad, in a hurry to get home before dark so he could go for a run, had forgotten to wear his safety belt-a
mistake 75% of US population make every day. The big question is why. 　　
     There have been many myths (误区) about safety belt ever since their first appearance in cars some forty
years ago. The following are three of the most common.

are "thrown clear". 　　
     Myth Number Two: Safety-belts "trap" people in cars that are burning or sinking in water.
     Truth: Sorry again, but studies show that people knocked unconscious (昏迷) due to not wearing safety
belts have a greater chance of dying in these accidents. People wearing safety belts are usually protected to

a clear head to free themselves from such dangerous situation, not to be trapped in them. 　　
     Myth Number Three: Safety belts aren't needed at speeds of less than 30 miles per hour (mph).
