    　　Forests have always been useful and important to man who makes use of them in many ways. Every day trees are serving man everywhere. Trees supply man with fruits and building materials in the form of wood. Without trees it would be impossible to build houses, boats, bridges and so on. Furniture such as desks, chairs and beds is made of wood. Trees can stop man from terrible heat. They're also useful in preventing good and rich top soil from being washed away during heavy rains.
    　　If there were no trees, heavy rains would wash away the rich top soil that is so important to plants. The result is that the land will become a desert. There are plenty of desert areas in the world. A long time ago these desert areas used to be very rich areas, but man in the past had no enough knowledge about science of nature, they cut down too many trees in the area where they lived and never planted new ones. By and by the rich top soil was blown and washed away by strong winds and heavy rains. In the end the rich land changed into useless deserts where nothing could grow.

    US president Barack Obama told students that it takes hard work in school to prepare for a rewarding career in his “back to school” speech,   36  last Tuesday in Virginia, US. Here is excerpt （节选）from his speech:
    I know that sometimes, you get the  37    that you can be rich and successful without any hard work –  38   your ticket to success is through rapping or basketball or being a reality TV star, when chances are, you’re not going to be any of those things. But the truth is, being successful is   39   .You won’t love every subject you study. Not every homework assignment will seem completely important to your life right this minute. And you may not succeed at    40     the first time you try.
    That’s OK. Some of the most successful people in the world are the ones who’ve had the most   41  .JK Rowling’s first Harry Potter book was   42  12 times before it was finally published. Michael Jordan was    43    his high school basketball team, and he lost hundreds of games and missed thousands of shots during his career. But he once said. “I have failed over and over and over again in my life. And that is why I succeed.”
    These people succeeded because they understand that you can’t let your failures  44   you. No one’s    45  being good at things; you become good at things through hard work.
    Don’t be afraid to ask questions. Don’t be afraid to ask for help when you need it. I do that every day. Asking for help isn’t a sign of weakness; it’s a sign of    46    . It shows you have the courage to admit when you don’t know something, and to learn something new.
    And even when you’re  47     , even when you’re discouraged, and when you feel like other people have given up on yourself, you won’t give up on yourself. Because when you give up on yourself, you give up on your country.

    Besides giving off gases and dusts into the air, humans produce waste that is poured on the environment. Often, this waste produced by major industries and people is harmful to both nature and human life.
    One of the main causes of the large amount of dangerous waste is that people do not realize how large a problem it is. Because it can be simply removed and sent to a landfill（废渣填埋场）, the problem is often believed to end there. In addition, industries have often shown an unwillingness to find ways to deal with dangerous waste because of the related expenses. Many industries and governments build simple landfills to store waste, and often just pour waste chemicals into nearby bodies of water. Often, chemicals used for industrial production cause dangerous forms of waste. The amount of these chemicals has increased greatly in the past, but it is often difficult and expensive to get rid of these chemicals or to store them in a way safe to human life and the environment.
    Every year, major health problems result from dangerous waste. Sadly, it is often only after someone has died or become seriously ill that governments will take measures to reduce levels of harmful waste.
    Some governments have realized how serious the dangerous waste problem is and are now trying to settle this problem. They are also trying to limit the amount of waste industries are allowed to produce.
    Not only governments but ordinary people as well must work together to solve the problem. They can choose not to buy those products which require the production of dangerous waste, and produce less harmful waste themselves. Many scientists think that waste production can be cut. The waste can be reduced by at least one third using existing technologies and methods.
    72. What would be the best title for the text?
    A. Measures of Reducing Dangerous Waste
    B. Danger of Harmful Waste to Mankind
    C. Dangerous Waste and Water Pollution
    D. Environmental Protection
    73. According to the text, people       .
    A. do not produce harmful waste in their daily life
    B. do not know where to place the dangerous waste
    C. are not clear about how serious the dangerous waste problem is
    D. are not sure about where harmful waste ends
    74. What troubles industries most in dealing with the dangerous waste problem?
    A. How to get government support.
    B. How to increase their production.
    C. How to store harmful waste.
    D. How to cut down the related costs.
    75. What can be inferred from the passage?
    A. The polluting industries are not allowed to sell their products.
    B. Present technologies have settled the harmful waste problem.
    C. Everyone should obey the government rules for the problem.
    D. To solve the problem requires the efforts of the whole society.

    Have you ever dreamed of visiting a planet in the Milky Way (银河系)? While the trip sounds exciting, it would take years and years to reach your destination. So in the future, bedtime for astronauts may be more than a few hours of regular shut eye. They would have to sleep for years.
    European researchers are now conducting hibernation experiments. The study may help them understand whether humans could ever sleep through the years it would take for a space flight to distant planets. "If there was an effective technology, it could make deep-space travel a reality," said Mark Ayre of the European Space Agency last month.
    What seems like a science fiction is not completely unlikely. Researchers have been able to use chemicals to put living cells into a sleep-like state where they don’t age. They have now moved on to the small, non-hibernating mammals (哺乳动物) like rats.
    A major challenge is the fact that cells can be very simple systems, whereas body organs are far more complex (复杂的). "It’s like moving from a simple Apple computer to a supercomputer," said Marco Biggiogera, a hibernation researcher at Italy’s University of Pavia．Just like bears and frogs, the hibernation of human beings would cause a person’s metabolism (新陈代谢) to lower so they would need less energy.
    Medical research, however, is just half of a space flight hibernation system. There is a challenge of designing a suitable protective shelter (栖身所). Such a shelter would provide the proper environment for hibernation, such as the proper temperature. It would also have to monitor (监控) life functions and serve the physiological needs of the hibernator.
    According to Ayre, the six-person Human Outer Planets Exploration Mission (使命) to Jupiter’s moon (木星的卫星) Callisto could be an opportunity to use human hibernation. The mission aims to send six persons on a five-year flight to Callisto, where they will spend 30 days, in 2045.
    小题1:According to the article, the hibernation research ______.
    A．is just an ideaB．is always a science fiction
    C．has already finished successfullyD．has made some progress
    小题2:In a hibernating state, a person needs ______.
    A．less sleep B．more foodC．less energyD．more movement
    小题3: The first try of the hibernation technology _____ the six-person Human Outer Planets
    Exploration Mission to Jupiter’s moon Callisto.
    A．will beB．has been planned for
    C．is certain to beD．may be
    小题4:What is the best title of the article?
    A．Hibernation Study For Space TravelB．Welcome To Our Space Travel
    C．To Hibernate, To Live Longer D．Welcome To The Milky Way

    It will be hot—hot enough that most locals will have cleared town for cooler places. But because athletes competing at the 2004 Olympics have no choice but to stay in the hot weather, many plan to turn to science to stay cool.?
    Some will put their hands in ice water just before competing and nearly all will be wearing fabrics(织物) designed with hot weather in mind.?
    “Normally we warm up before exercise,”said Gordon Sleivert, director of sports science and medicine at the Canadian Sport Center in Victoria, British Columbia.“But in this case we're taking the warm out of warm up. It's like pre-cooling.”
    Experts are predicting(预测) the average high this August in Athens will be 90 degrees Fahrenheit, with temperatures often reaching above 100(the average temperature in Sydney for the 2000 summer games was 64).?
    Although some events, such as the marathon, will start early(1 a.m.) to avoid hot weather, other competitors will be pushing their limits during high temperatures.?       Drinking lots of water will help athletes keep cool, but humidity(湿度) remains a problem. The body's ability to cool down is weakened by damp air since sweat drips off the skin rather than evaporates(蒸发),resulting in dehydration(脱水) without the cooling.?
    “Getting hot is a real problem because when our brains heats up, the brain waves are more like when you're really sleepy. Everything feels harder,” said Sleivert.
    小题1: The passage mainly tells us that _______.
    A．why it is very hot in Athens?
    B．the hot weather is a big problem for Olympic athletes?
    C．how important science is to every athlete?
    D．the Olympics will be put off because of the hot weather?
    小题2:The underlined sentence “other competitors will be pushing their limits during high temperatures”in the fifth paragraph means _______.?
    A．Olympic athletes will put off their competition time?
    B．some events in the Olympics will have to be put forward?
    C．competitors can't reach their limits in the hot weather?
    D．competitors will have to try their best to compete under any condition?
    小题3:The following things will be likely to happen in the hot weather EXCEPT _______.
    A．dehydration?
    B．being sleepy?
    C．that the blood in the body can become less and less?
    D．that the body's ability to cool down is weakened

    Everywhere man is altering the balance of nature．He is facilitating the spread of plants and animals into new regions, sometimes deliberately, sometimes unconsciously．He is covering huge areas with new kinds of plants, or with houses, factories, slag-heaps and other products of his civilization．He exterminates some species on a large scale, but favours the multiplication of others．In brief, he has done more in five thousand years to alter the biological aspect of the planet than has nature in five million．
    Many of these changes which he has brought about have had unforeseen consequences．Who would have thought that the throwing away of a piece of Canadian waterweed would have caused half the waterways of Britain to be blocked for a decade, or that the provision of pot cacti for lonely settlers’ wives would have led to Eastern Australian being overrun with forests of Prickly Pear? Who would have prophesied that the cutting down of forests on the Adriatic coasts, or in parts of Central Africa, could have reduced the land to a semidesert, with the very soil washed away from the bare rock? Who would have thought that improved communications would have changed history by the spreading of disease-sleeping sickness into East Africa, measles into Oceania, very possibly malaria into ancient Greece?
    These are spectacular examples; but examples on a smaller scale are everywhere to be found．We make a nature sanctuary for rare birds, prescribing absolute security for all species; and we may find that some common and hardy kind of bird multiplies beyond measure and ousts the rare kinds in which we were particularly interested．We see, owing to some little change brought about by civilization, the starling spread over the English country-side in hordes．We improve the yielding capacities of our cattle; and find that now they exhaust the pastures which sufficed for less exigent stock．
    小题1:The following examples except ________ reflect man altering the balance of nature．
    A．man is covering huge areas with new kinds of plants
    B．man is facilitating the spread of animals into new regions．
    C．man is killing some species on a large scale
    D．man is getting to know the importance of keeping the balance of nature．
    小题2:What had a piece of Canadian waterweed cause?
    A．Eastern Australian was overrun with forests．
    B．Half the waterways of Britain blocked for a decade．
    C．In parts of central Africa, the land reduced to a semidesert．
    D．Disease-sleeping has been caused．
    小题3:What have spread diseases?
    A．Disease-sleeping sickness．B．Measles．
    C．Improved communications．D．Malaria．
    小题4:We make a nature sanctuary for rare birds but __________
    A．some common and hardy kind of bird multiplies
    B．rare kinds multiply
    C．all bird multiply
    D．no bird multiply
    小题5:The main idea of the passage is _________．
    A．that man is deliberately destroying the balance of nature
    B．that man has foreseen the consequences of altering the balance old nature
    C．that improved communications have changed history
    D．that man is altering the balance of nature
