“Hey, look!” exclaimed Rahim. “Those two men are 37 heavy rocks. I thought we no longer do muscle labour in this technological 38 . ”
“They are 41 laborers who know how to spread the weight of the rocks they 42 . See how the man positions the rock just at the slope of his 43 . Some of the rock’s weight is set 44 his head, some on the right hand and some on the left hand. His body isn’t bent. His legs are well 45 . ”
“You’re right, Josh. He may have a small build. 46 he certainly well knows his job. Dear me! And to think we have been studying 47 ! ” Rahim thought about all that was happening. Suddenly, he said, “Technology won’t 48 the human being completely, it appears.”
“I don’t think it will. ” 49 Joshua. “You can harvest a crop of potatoes or wheat with one of those large, multi-purpose tractors, but you 50 use that equipment to harvest lea leaves and tomatoes, will you?”
“You can get a computer to 51 multiple-choice assessments, but you cannot get the computer to produce of assess essays, can you?” asked Michael.
“Well, the washing machine leaves my shirt collar quite as 52 as ever --- that’s domestic technology for you! ” said Rahim.
“One day, perhaps, there won’t be anybody 53 who can carry a large rock the way those men do. It’s not going to be a very 54 world, I’m afraid.” Sighed Michael.
“You’re too much of a pessimist (悲观主义者),Mike.” Said Joshua. “ 55 will always be other things that will make the world exciting. ”

解析本文是一篇观点独特的哲理小品,讲述的是三个年轻人在看到两个码头工人卸运石头之后的,引发的他们之间的一段对话。告诉我们在这个世界上尽管科技越来越发达,但还是代替不了人类的劳动。
【小题1】Cleading down to 可以向下滑动的台阶是方便船只卸货的,down 向下的,lead to 通向…….
【小题2】unloading 卸货,下一段有提示,前后呼应。
【小题3】era 时代
【小题4】expect 预料,想到。
【小题5】seem to do sth. 看起来如何……
【小题6】从下文可知他们是有经验的(experienced)工人。
【小题7】动词辨析。carry 不强调动作的方向,强调搬运 ( carry ) 的物体较重。
【小题8】本题与上文的carry (扛,搬运)对应。
【小题9】set against 使……平衡。
【小题10】be well placed 使….放置平衡、恰当。这里指注意姿势,使双腿保持平衡。
【小题11】but 表示转折。由下文可知,他个子不大,体格不够强壮(He is a small build), 但他肯定非常了解自己的工作,这样才能弥补自身的缺陷。干扰项是B “however”,做“可是”意思讲时是副词,不可引导从句。
【小题12】工人们所讲的都是有关力的作用和平衡的知识,当然属物理 (physics) 范畴。
【小题13】由全文可知技术无法替代(replace)人类的劳动,这是文章的主旨之所在。
【小题14】由上下文可知,Joshua 也赞同(agree)他的观点。
【小题15】反义疑问句,由本句末的 will you 可知。
【小题16】print out 打印出
【小题17】由生活常识可知。
【小题18】left 是形容词,表示“剩下的”意思,做后置定语。
【小题19】从文章最后一句话可知。
【小题20】There be 结构。

We all know that some things are obviously right. For example, it is right to be 1 to other people. It is also right to look after the environment. Some things are 2 wrong, too. For instance, we should not hurt or bully(欺负)others, nor should we litter. Rules often tell us what is right or wrong.
Rules can help the public make the right 3 , and remain safe. Car drivers have to obey traffic regulations that tell them the right things to do on the road to avoid crashes. Cyclists who give signals before turning or stopping help prevent 4 .
If people follow rules without taking other matters into consideration, it will be 5 for them to form what is sometimes called a “black and white” view (黑白分明的观点). For example, they may believe that people should always tell the truth, and that lying is 6 acceptable. Such people always stick to their views, even if it means that they may get into 7 .
Sometimes it may not be so easy to know 8 what is right or wrong. Some people choose not to eat meat because they believe that it is 9 to eat animals, but others argue that they can eat meat and 10 be kind to animals; some insist that stealing is always wrong, but others think that one does not need to feel so guilty (有罪的) when stealing some food to eat, if he lives in a really poor area and he is starving.
Rules help us live together in harmony, because they show us the right way to treat others. However, some people argue that rules may be confusing, having observed that rules change all the time, and that some schools have some regulations and others have different ones---so who is to decide what is right?
1. A.kind B.sensitive C.fair D.generous
2. A.equally B.slightly C.clearly D.increasingly
3. A.suggestions B.conclusion C.turns D.choices
4. A.accidents B.mistakes C.falls D.deaths
5. A.interesting B.vital (重要的) C.easy D.valuable
6. A.seldom B.rarely C.merely (仅仅) D.never
7. A.trouble B.power C.prison D.control
8. A.roughly B.eventually C.deliberately (故意地) D.exactly

When I come across a good article in reading newspapers,I often want to cut and keep it.But just as I am about to do so,I find the article on the 31 side is as much interesting.It may be a discussion of the way to 32 in good health,or advice about how to behave and 33 yourself in society.If I cut the front articles,the opposite one is likely to suffer 34 ,leaving one half of it or keeping the text 35 the title.Therefore,the scissors would stay before they start, 36 the cutting would be halfway done when I find out the 37 result.
Sometimes two things are to be done at the same time,both worth your 39 .You can only take up one of them;the other has to wait or be 39 up.But you know the future is unpredictable—the changed situation may not 40 you to do what is left behind.Thus you are 41 in a difficult position and feel sad.How come nice 42 and clever ideas should gather around all at once?
