    Ship tourism to Antarctica is on the rise: More than 35,000 tourists are expected to visit Antarctic this summer. In 1992-1993, 6,750 visited Antarctica, according to the Antarctica Treaty. All of this tourism, however, is putting both tourists and the environment in great danger.
    Among the tourist ships that visit the continent, the Explorer, a Canadian ship, was one of the first. Put to use in 1969, it was built to carry tourists to Antarctica. Last week, however, it became the first commercial passenger ship to sink beneath the waters. Fortunately, all of the passengers and crew members were rescued from the ship. However, the sunken ship endangered the Antarctic’s fragile(脆弱的) environment. The ship was estimated to be holding 48,000 gallons of fuel.
    The accident was not unexpected. Both the US and UK had warned a conference of the Antarctic Treaty member countries in May that the tourism situation in this area was a potential disaster. The US said in a paper, people “should take a hard look at tourism issues now, especially those related to ship safety.” Although the Antarctic seas are relatively(相对地) calm, floating ice causes a potential threat to ships. The owner of the Explorer blamed the sinking on a fist-like hole in the ship created by ice.
    Many of the other large ships now visiting Antarctica are not designed especially against thick ice. Such ships generally can only come to the continent in summer. But the tourist rush is pushing ships into dangerous situations. “The increasing number of ships operating in Antarctic means that the ship are under great pressure to get there in time for the key visiting sites,” the British government wrote in a paper at the meeting of member countries.
    As a natural frontier, Antarctica is in a messy legal situation. There are no obvious answers as to who is responsible for dealing with the threat that tourist may cause to human life and the environment.
    There is no coast guard for Antarctica. Do we want it to become Disneyland, or do we need some controls?
    76. Which of the following is true according to this passage?
    A. Antarctica tourism has a history of about 17 years
    B. The number of tourists to the Antarctic is over 5 times as large as that of 17 years ago.
    C. The tourism boom has caused holes in the floating ice in the Antarctic.
    D. The Antarctica Treaty is responsible for the problem.
    77. The sinking of the Explorer____________.
    A. led to a conference about the tourism situation in the Antarctic.
    B. was caused by the rough seas
    C. had been predicted
    D. did harm to the Antarctic.
    78. It can be inferred from the passage that_________.
    A. a Disneyland will be built in the Antarctic
    B. fewer people are visiting the Antarctic because of the warnings given
    C. not all the ships are suitable to go to the Antarctic
    D. some ships take risks visiting the Antarctic in other seasons rather than in summer
    79. In this passage, the writer suggests that___________.
    A. people had better not make a tour of the Antarctic
    B. ships to the Antarctic should be built strong enough
    C. there should be legal controls over tourism in the Antarctic
    D. the Antarctic’s environment is fragile
    80. What attitude does the writer hold towards Antarctic tourism?
    A. Supportive.     B. Positive.       C. Indifferent.        D. Anxious.

    　　If you ask people to name one person who had the greatest effect on the English language, you will get answers like“Shakespeare”,“Samuel Johnson”and“Webster”but none of these men had any effect at all compared with a man who didn't even speak English---William the Conqueror.
    　　Before 1066, in the land we now call Great Britain lived people belonging to two major language groups. In the west-central region lived the Welsh, who spoke a Celtic language, and in north lived the Scots, whose language, though not the same as Welsh, was also Celtic. In the rest of the country lived the Saxons, actually a mixture of Anglos-Saxons, and other Germanic and Nordic peoples, who spoke what we call Anglo-Saxon (or Old English), a Germanic Language. If this state of affairs had lasted, English today would be close to German.
    　　But this state of affairs did not last. In 1066 the Normans led by William defeated the Saxons and began their rule over England. For about a century, French became the official language of England while Old English became the language of peasants. As a result, English words of polities and the law come from French rather than German. In some cases, modern English even shows a distinction(区别) between upper-class French and lower-class Anglo-Saxon in its words. We even have different words for some foods, meat in particular, depending on whether it is still out in fields or at home ready to be cooked, which shows the fact that the Saxon peasants were doing the farming, while the upper-class Normans were doing most of the eating.
    　　When Americans visit Europe for the first time, they usually find Germany more“foreign”than France because the German they see on signs and advertisements seems much more different from English than French does. Few realize that the English language is actually Germanic in its beginning and that the French influences are all the result of one man's ambition.
    46.The two major languages spoken in what is now called Great Britain before 1066 were _____.
    　　A. Welsh and Scottish　　　　　　　　　　B. Nordic and Germanic
    　　C. Celtic and Old English　　　　　　　　D. Anglo-Saxon and Germanic
    　　47.Which of the following groups of words are, by inference, rooted in French?
    　　A. president , lawyer, beef　　　　　　　 B. president , bread, water
    　　C. bread , field, sheep　　　　　　　　　 D. folk , field, cow
    48.Why does France appear less foreign than Germany to Americans on their first visit to Europe?
    　　A. Most advertisements in France appear in English.
    　　B. they know little of the history of the English language.
    　　C. Many French words are similar to English ones.
    　　D. They know French better than German.
    49.What is the subject discussed in the text?
    　　A. The history of Great Britain.  B. The similarity of Great Britain.
    　　C. The rule of England by William the Conqueror. D. The French influences on the English language.

    Identifying young people with the potential to be great athletes has become a serious, business around the world. Many countries, including Australia, have sophisticated(复杂) programs for identifying and nurturing(培养) talent.
    The AIS (Australian Institute of Sport) already runs a program that identifies potential winners starting from the age of 12 based on their physical and physiological(生理的) abilities.
    Could genetics improve these programs? The problem is that no one gene test is ever going to do an accurate job of identifying someone with the physical attributes of a sporting champion, says Professor North.
    "We can think of the elite athlete as what I'd call a complex phenotype(表现型)," she says. “There are going to be a large number of different genes involved. Any one single test is unlikely to be highly predictive.”
    Professor Peter Fricker, director of the AIS, agrees. Although he is intrigued in the possibilities of genetic testing, he says using such tests to identify athletes would be difficult. "The feeling I have is that it won't be that easy," he says. "Talent selection is not just about your genes."
    Since 2004, the AIS has been forbidden by government from any involvement in genetic work, including genetic testing. But Professor Fricker thinks that is likely to change in the near future. "There's been a shift in view more recently," he says.
    When it does, the AIS will resume its work on the genetics of sports performance, Professor Fricker says. They would be particularly interested in looking for more genes that might help shape elite performance, but also for genes that increase the risk of injury.
    Last year, the Human Genetics Society of Australasia issued a position statement on gene testing for sport, after concerns that people could use tests to steer children into particular sports.
    “The Human Genetics Society thinks there are not enough data to use these tests for determining what sport kids should do,” said Professor David Thorburn, president of the society.
    He stressed that genetic tests should not be performed on children, except in very specific medical circumstances.
    57．The aim of the AIS’s program is to        .
    A．predict how genes are connected with injuries
    B．find potential great athletes
    C．find out what qualities a professor has through gene tests
    D．turn an athlete into a champion by transferring genes
    58．By saying “Talent selection is not just about your genes”, Fricker means         .
    A．effort is more important than genes in most cases
    B．you can’t choose an athlete just depending on genes
    C．to research one’s genes takes a long time
    D．most people don’t believe in genetic tests
    59．The underlined word “resume” in Para. 7 can be replaced by              .
    A．stop B．complete   C．reduce      D．continue.
    60．What’s Professor David Thorburn’s attitude towards genetic tests?
    A．Genetic tests have a negative effect on children.
    B．Genetic tests, under certain conditions, can be conducted on children.
    C．Genetic tests can reduce the risk of athletes’ injuries.
    D．People could use genetic tests to decide what sport kids should take.

    B
    Most American kids love Halloween treats, but a bucket of Halloween candy can be a dentist’s nightmare. Some parents try to get rid of half of the candy after their children go to bed, but dentists say parents also need to separate the good kinds of treats from the bad.
    It is not exactly what a child eats that truly matters, but how much time it stays in his mouth. According to pediatric dentist Dr. Kaneta Lott, the most damaging stuff is something that is sticky or very hard and thus stays in the mouth for a long time. This is because we all have bacteria in our mouths. When we eat, the bacteria take our food as their food and produce an acid that destroys the surface of the teeth, causing cavities to form. The longer the food stays in the mouth, the more likely cavities will develop. Therefore, potato chips are worse than candy because they get stuck between teeth. For the same reason, raisins and crackers are not the best choice. Hard candies take a long time to consume and are also a bad choice for Halloween treats
    If children really love candy, dentists recommend that they eat chocolate instead. Unlike hard candies, chocolate dissolves quickly in the mouth. Besides, chocolate contains tannins, which help to kill some of the bacteria in the mouth. But no matter what a child eats, brushing after each meal is still the best way to fight cavities.
