At one time, computers were expected largely to remove the need for paper copies of documents(文件)because they could be stored electronically. But for all the texts that are written, stored and sent electronically, a lot of them are still ending up on paper.
It is difficult to measure the quantity of paper used as a result of Internet-connected computers, although just about anyone who works in an office can tell you that when e-mail is introduced, the printers start working overtime. “I feel in my bones this revolution is causing more trees to be cut down,” says Ted Smith of the Earth Village Organisation.
Perhaps the best sign of how computer and Internet use pushes up demand for paper comes from the high-tech industry itself, which sees printing as one of its most promising new markets. Several Internet companies have been set up to help small businesses print quality documents from a computer. Earlier this week Hewlett-Packard Co. announced a plan to develop new technologies that will enable people to print even more so they can get a hard copy of a business document, a medical record or just a one-line e-mail, even if they are nowhere near a computer. As the company sees it, the more use of the Internet the greater demand for printers
Does all this mean environmental concerns (环境问题) have been forgotten? Some activists suggest people have been led to believe that a lot of dangers to the environment have gone away. “I guess people believe that the problem is taken care of, because of recycling (回收利用),”said Kelly Quirke, director of the Rainforest Action Network in San Francisco. Yet Quirke is hopeful that high-tech may also prove helpful. He says printers that print on both sides are growing in popularity. The action group has also found acceptable paper made from materials other than wood, such as agricultural waste.
72.   The growing demand for paper in recent years is largely due to ___________.
A.    the rapid development of small businesses    B. the opening up of new markets
C.    the printing of high quality copies               D. the increased use of the Internet
73.   Environmentalists believe one possible way of dealing with the paper situation is ______.
A.    to encourage printing more quality documents
B.    to develop new printers using recycled paper
C.    to find new materials for making paper
D.    to plant more fast-growing trees
74.   Hewlett-Packard Co. has decided to develop new technologies because ___________.
A.    people are concerned about the environment
B.    printers in many offices are working overtime
C.    small companies need more hard copies
D.    they see a growing market for printers
75.   What would be the best title for the text?
A. Computers and Printers                                B. E-mail and the Business World
C. Internet Revolution and Environment                D. Modern Technology and New Markets

I once had my Chinese MBA students brainstorming on “two-hour business plans”. I separated them into six groups and gave them an example: a restaurant chain. The more original their idea, the better, I said. Finally, five of the six groups presented plans for restaurant chains. The sixth proposed a catering(餐饮) service. Though I admitted the time limit had been difficult, I expressed my disappointment.
My students were middle managers, financial analysts and financiers from state-owned enterprises and global companies. They were not without talent or opinions, but they had been shaped by an educational system that rarely stressed or rewarded critical thinking or inventiveness. The scene I just described came in different forms during my two years’ teaching at the school. Papers were often copied from the Web and the Harvard Business Review. Case study debates were written up and just memorized. Students frequently said that copying is a superior business strategy, better than inventing and creating.
In China, every product you can imagine has been made and sold. But so few well-developed marketing and management minds have been raised that it will be a long time before most people in the world can name a Chinese brand.
With this problem in mind, partnerships with institutions like Yale and MIT have been established. And then there’s the “thousand-talent scheme”: this new government program is intended to improve technological modernization by attracting top foreign-trained scientists to the mainland with big money. But there are worries about China’s research environment. It's hardly known for producing independent thinking and openness, and even big salary offers may not be attractive enough to overcome this.
At last, for China, becoming a major world creator is not just about setting up partnerships with top Western universities. Nor is it about gathering a group of well-educated people and telling them to think creatively. It’s about establishing a rich learning environment for young minds. It’s not that simple.
小题1:Why does the author feel disappointed at his students?
A.Because there is one group presenting a catering service.
B.Because the six groups made projects for restaurant chains.
C.Because all the students copied a case for the difficult topic.
D.Because the students’ ideas were lacking in creativeness.
小题2:Which of the following scenes is NOT considered as lack of creation?
A.Papers were often downloaded from the Internet.
B.Students often said that copying is a preferable business strategy.
C.Students combine knowledge and critical thoughts to solve a problem.
D.Case study debates were written up as well as recited.
小题3:The underlined word “scheme” in the forth paragraph means__________.
A.timetableB.themeC.projectD.policy
小题4:We can infer from the passage that ___________.
A.China can make and sell any product all over the world
B.high pay may not solve the problem of China’s research environment
C.cooperation with institutions has been set up to make a Chinese brand
D.the new government program are aimed at encouraging imagination
小题5:Which is the best title of the passage?
A.Look for a New Way of LearningB.Reward Creative Thinking
C.How to Become a CreatorD.Establish a technical Environment

  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.
小题1:According to the passage, ______.
A.a long time ago, man didn't know how to make use of wood
B.trees are not as useful as they were in the past
C.trees were more found in the past than they are today
D.people have always found trees useful
  小题2:If there were no trees, ______.
A.the land would become betterB.heavy rains would be very clean

The earth's biosphere (the surface layer of the planet and the surrounding atmosphere) provides the land, air, water, and energy necessary to sustain life. This life-support system is a complex, interdependent one in which energy from the sun is changed into food for humans. The entire system depends on the sun, reasonably moderate temperature, and enough supplies of oxygen, pure water, and fertile soil.
Since the earth's creation millions of years ago, the ecosystem has worked as an interdependent system relatively undisturbed by outside forces. But recently, especially since the Industrial Revolution, human beings have begun to disturb the balance of nature. Natural resources have been severely depleted (消耗) (forests have been destroyed, fertile land worn away, water polluted, and minerals used up), and the life-support system of air, water, and land has been poisoned by a variety of waste products and chemicals.
The degree of these problems was noted in a report by the U.N. Developing Council on Environmental Quality. This report predicted that if present trends continue, the world will be more crowded and polluted and less stable ecologically and politically than the world we live in now.
The twin problems of resource shortages and pollution are caused by three social forces.  First, the tremendous increase in population growth constantly increases the demand for food, energy, and other products. As the current population continues to increase, the stress on an already overburdened environment will be increased.A second source of the problem is the concentration of people in urban areas, where the ecosystem simply cannot absorb their waste products. Finally, environmental problems are worsened as more and more nations move toward modem development: an increased reliance on modern technology. As these nations become more technological, they will consume more energy, deplete more natural resources, and create more waste products than the biosphere can absorb.
小题1:The life-support system is composed of _____.
A.air, water and landB.the earth, the sun and energy
C.food, land and energyD.food, energy and the sun
小题2:The life-support system _____.
A.change energy from the sun into food for humans
B.depends on the sun for enough supplies of air, water and land
C.exists in the surface layer of the earth and the surrounding atmosphere
D.is a complex but independent system
小题3:The life-support system has been badly damaged by _____.
A.natural forcesB.human activitiesC.social movements D.political changes
小题4:The passage mainly talks about _____.
A.the effects of Industrial Revolution on human beings
B.the importance of life-support system to human beings
C.the significance of balance of nature
D.the destruction of life-support system and its causes

 For more than twenty years scientists have been searching for signs of life on other planets. Most of these searches have been done over the radio. The hope is that someone in outer space may be trying to get in touch with us. Scientists also have sent radio and television messages on spaceships traveling through space, on the chance that someone may be receptive to such messages.
  Scientists are using powerful radio telescopes to listen to signals from about 1, 000 stars, all within 100 light years of earth. In addition, they will scan(扫视)the entire sky to “listen” for radio messages from more distant stars. Using a computer, they will be able to monitor more than eight channels at one time. Scientists are looking for any signal they stands out from the background noise.
  Of the 200 billion stars in the Milky Way galaxy(银河星系), scientists find that five percent are like our sun. Perhaps half of them have a planet like earth. Such a planet would be a reasonable distance from the star for temperatures to be right for the evolution(进化)of life. Based on the inhabitable(that can be lived in)planets in our galaxy, most scientists agree that chances are likely that one or more of these planets support some life.
  However, many scientists wonder whether intelligent(有智力的)life exists on other planets. Some believe that twenty years of searching without any intelligible messages shows that no one is out there. They say that the evolution of intelligence comparable to ours is unlikely.
  Other scientists believe that our search hasn’t been long enough to rule out the possibility that intelligent life exists in our galaxy. Although our sun family is only about five billion years old, our galaxy is about 20 billion years old. In that time, some scientists think it is likely that civilization(文明)much more advanced than ours have developed. Perhaps these civilizations send us no signals; perhaps we have not recognized the signals they have sent us. If we hope to find intelligent life, these scientists believe that we have to keep looking.
小题1:According to the passage, how many planets in our galaxy might be inhabitable?
A.5 billion.B.10 billion.
C.15 billion.D.200 billion
小题2:The first paragraph in this passage is mainly about ________ .
A.how scientists are looking for signs of life on other planets
B.why scientists are looking for signs of life on other planets
C.where scientists are looking for signs of life on other planets
D.when scientists are looking for signs of life on other planets
小题3:The underlined word “monitor” in the passage means“ ________ ”.
A.findB.follow
C.checkD.form
小题4:Which of these statements is true based on the information in the passage?
A.The earth is one of the oldest planets in our galaxy.
B.Most scientists believe that there is intelligent life on other planets.
C.Scientists are trying different ways to find signs of life on other planets.
D.Scientists don’t believe that there might be life on other planets.

Every year landslides {滑坡} cause 25 to 50 deaths and $1.5 billion in damage in the United States.They account for 15 percent of the deaths from natural disasters in Europe.And in Decem­ber, a single event killed more than 200 people in the Philippines.Sending workers to stabilize (加固) mountainsides using steel bars and cement (水泥) can help prevent disaster, but it introduces new difficulties.Shaking drills produce harmful dust and loosen heavy, dangerous debris (米屑)."It's quite a risky job," says Giorgio Pezzuto of D'Appolonia, an engineering company in Italy.
D'Appolonia, working with eight other companies, may have an answer:  a three-ton robot called Roboclimber."The idea is to operate a machine far away that can drill without a hu­man being on board,'" says Pezzuto, manager for the project, which is supported by the European Commission.Engineers claim that the machine will be faster and cheaper than manual labor.The robot, a large radio-controlled four-legged me­chanical spider (蜘蛛), has cost at least $2 mil­lion so far.The final product should be able to climb unstable mountainsides, drill holes, insert bars and cement, and collect data on the slope' s stability.Testing should begin in May.
小题1:The underlined word "event" (in Paragraph l) refers to ___.
A.landslideB.machineC.earthquakeD.flood
小题2:The purpose in writing this text is ___..
A.to tell people how serious the damage caused by landslides is
B.to tell people that sending workers to sta­bilize mountainsides is a risky job
C.to introduce a product that can be used to stabilize mountainsides
D.to show people how to use a new product
小题3:What does the robot look like?
A.A human being.B.A spider.C.A truck.D.A drill.
小题4:The biggest advantage of this product is that_________.
A.it will be faster and cheaper than manual labor
B.it can climb mountainsides, drill holes, insert bars and cement
C.it can collect data on the slope’s stability
D.it can drill without a human being on board

Student participation in the classroom is not only accepted but also expected of the student in many courses. Some professors base part of the final grade on the student’s oral participation. Although there are formal lectures during which the student has a passive role (i.e., listening and taking notes), many courses are organized around classroom discussions, student questions, and informal lectures. In graduate discussions the professor had a “manager” role and the students make presentations and lead discussions. The students do the actual teaching in these discussions.
A professor’s teaching method is another factor that determines the degree and type of student participation. Some professors prefer to control discussions while others prefer to guide the class without controlling it. Many professors encourage students to question their ideas. Students who object to the professor’s point of view should be prepared to prove their positions.
In the teaching of science and mathematics, the controlling mode of instruction is generally traditional, with teachers presenting formal lectures and students taking notes. However, new educational trends have turned up in the humanities and social sciences in the past twenty years. Students in education, society, and history classes, for example, are often required to solve problems in groups, design projects, make presentations, and examine case studies. Since some college or university courses are “practical” rather than theoretical, they pay more attention to “doing” for themselves.
小题1:“Participation in the classroom is not only accepted but also expected of the student” in  ____
class.
A.the humanities and social sciencesB.the science and mathematics
C.the theoretical lessonsD.the strictly controlled courses
小题2:From the passage we know that education in the humanities and society __________.
A.has not changed much in the past twenty years
B.pay attention to students’ studying instead of teachers’ teaching
C.is much more important than that of science and mathematics
D.has become more practical than theoretical.
小题3:The reason why some professors ask students to make presentations and lead discussions is that __________.
A.these professors are often not well prepared before class
B.these professors want to stress “doing”
C.these professors want to test the students abilities
D.these professors are not willing to teach theory
小题4:Which of the following sentences is true according to the passage?
A.Student participation is not common in many courses like society and history classes.
B.Some professors want to control the classroom discussion.
C.Some of students are wanted to attend the lecture of science and mathematics.
D.New educational trends have turned up in the teaching of natural sciences such as
chemistry.
