    D
    What is a good education? The question is far from being answered. Once more, colleges and universities are changing their programs: they drop "fun courses" and restart some of the traditional subjects neglected (忽视) since the 1960s. Many great schools are again requiring the students to take a number of classes in English, history, literature, the social sciences, philosophy, the natural sciences, and art if they want to get a degree. Meanwhile, the experts are trying to describe the good education of our time. Obviously the purely vocational training once favored is not enough. But neither is the gentleman's education of the nineteenth century. Educational programs must meet the demands of a modern world where men and women have to work and to deal with big problems.
    What, then, is a good education of this century? Some educators suggest that it should include foreign languages and the study of foreign cultures; a mastery of English, including the ability to write and speak well, because communications have become all-important in the modern world, and also because "a person who doesn't speak and write clearly doesn't reason clearly either"; some knowledge of the social sciences (sociology, psychology) that deal with human relations and human problems; some basic knowledge of modern science, which would enable future voters to be better informed about current problems like nuclear. Finally, many educators insist that all college graduates should be familiar with computers and modern information system since the educated professionals of tomorrow will have to understand their machines. Is that all? "No, of course not." answer the educators. "We have not mentioned the two great building blocks of education: history and literature!"
    71．The best title for this passage might be _______.            
    A．Education           B．A Mastery of English
    C．A Good Education   D．Something About Study
    72．The underlined word "drop" in the first paragraph means _______.
    A．desert       B．dislike      C．decline     D．neglect
    73．The author thinks that the question about what a good education is _______. 
    A．has been answered fairly well                     
    B．hasn't been put forward yet
    C．has been dealt with successfully                   
    D．has not been answered satisfactorily
    74．Some educational experts believe a mastery of English should include the ability _______.
    A．to read fast                        B．to write and speak well
    C．to write clearly and accurately    D．to listen and speak skillfully         
    75．Which of the following statements is not mentioned in the passage?      
    A．Educational programs must meet the demand of a modern world.
    B．The students will not get a degree unless they take a number of classes in English, history,
    literature, the social sciences, philosophy, the natural sciences and art.
    C．A good education should include foreign language and the study of foreign culture.
    D．Every student ought to take part in military training.

           Whether you're heading into the wild or down the road, it's hard to find a better electronic sidekick than a GPS. (Well, you know, other than a cell phone.)
    Because a GPS has to receive a signal from space, physical impediments(遮挡) like skyscrapers, cliff faces, and even trees can stump(阻断) it. Reception is less of an issue with the ultrasensitive(超灵敏) chipsets in newer models, but if the walls are closing in on you, take a tip from a time when navigation systems weren't the streamlined panels they are today: Hooking up an antenna(天线) will make use of even the most tenuous celestial connection. There's a port on the back of most GPS devices for jacking in.
    You'll also want to remember that a GPS is not a compass: It runs on software. Like your PC, it needs to communicate with the mother ship periodically. Vendors(供应商) refresh firmware and maps on a regular basis, sometimes even daily. These updates deliver new bits of data that significantly affect your gadget's accuracy. But if you live in the boonies(郊区) on a road named after your sister-wife, don't expect NavTeq to come a-knocking with its survey equipment. Fortunately, most companies make it easy to update your own maps. Usually it's as simple as plugging into your home computer, dropping a couple of pins in Google Maps, and clicking Save.
    If you own a new Tom Tom, it's even easier. You can edit maps on the unit itself, though you might not have to: Some of the company's navigation updates themselves. Tom Tom's IQ Routes software takes data from every person who uses the company' gadgets and readjusts its assumptions about which roads you should use and how long a given route will take. It will even change its own maps.
    See, it's not that hard: Your GPS may use NASA technology, but getting the most out of it isn't rocket science.
    46. The writer thinks the useful electronic partner is __  
    ____besides a cell phone when driving outdoors.
    A. a GPS            B. Tom Tom's IQ Routes              C. a PC       D. NASA
    47. Which statement is NOT true about a GPS according to the passage?
    A. It receives a signal from space.
    B. It is not a compass.
    C. It needs to refresh its information.
    D. It has no port to connect other equipment.
    48. You may learn from the passage that Tom Tom (Para 4) is _______.
    A. a GPS receiver
    B. a device that can be used to edit maps
    C. a device that can be used to update software
    D. a person who readjusts GPS assumptions
    49. The main idea of the last paragraph is _______.
    A. that we should make the most of GPS in rocket science
    B. that getting the most out of GPS is too difficult
    C. getting the most out of GPS is very easy
    D. GPS owns NASA technology
    50. Which is not mentioned about a GPS according to the passage?
    A. Its usage.          B. Its price and shape.   C. Its technology.     D. Its benefit.

    B
    Among the most popular books being written today are science fictions (小说). Hundreds of titles are published every year and are read by all kinds of people. Furthermore, some of the most successful films of recent years have been based on science fiction stories.
    It is often thought that science fiction is a fairly new development in literature, but its forefathers can be found in books written hundreds of years ago. These books were often concerned with the presentation of some form of ideal society, a main subject which is still often found in modern stories.
    Most of the classics of science fiction, however, have been written within the last one hundred years. Books by writers, such as Jules Verne and H.G. Wells, to mention just two well–known authors, have been translated into many languages.
    In an age where science fact frequently overtakes (超过) science fiction, the writers may find it difficult to keep ahead of scientific advances. Those who are clear-sighted to see how the ways are going, however, may provide a valuable lesson on how to deal with the problems which society will unpreventably face as it tries to master its new technology and come to terms with a continually changing view of the world.
    45. It can be concluded that modern science fiction ______
    A. is worse than that in the past
    B. shows the writer’s viewpoints
    C. tells stories about men from other planets
    D. has been written only by Jules Verne and H.G. Wells
    46. From the article we get the impression that science fiction ______.
    A. is popular
    B. is a fairly new development in literature
    C. reflects the technical advances in the past
    D. describes things that happen in developed countries
    47. Which of the following statements is true?
    A. Science fiction is based on successful films.
    B. Science fiction often overtakes science fact.
    C. Writers may find it easy to keep ahead of scientific advances.
    D. The writer who can see clearly the way we are going will give us valuable instructions.

    D
    Can trees talk? Yes --- but not in words. Scientists have reason to believe that trees do communicate with each other. Not long ago, researchers learned some surprising things. First a willow tree  (柳树) attacked in the woods by caterpillars (毛毛虫) changed the chemistry of its leaves and made them tasteless so that the caterpillars got tired of the leaves and stopped eating them. The even more astonishing, the tree sent out a special vapor--- a signal causing its neighbors to change the chemistry of their own leaves and make themselves taste also terrible.
    Communication, of course, doesn’t need to be always in words. We can talk to each other by smiling, raising our shoulders and moving our hands. We know that birds and animals use a whole vocabulary of songs, sounds and movements. Bees dance their signals, flying in certain patterns that tell other bees where to find nectar (花蜜) for honey. So shy shouldn’t trees have ways of sending messages?
    71.When attacked, a willow tree will protect itself by _______.
    A. changing its leaves’ chemistry         B. changing its leaves’ color
    C. talking to caterpillars                      D. sending a special vapor
    72. From the passage we know that caterpillars _______.
    A. like willow trees                            B. enjoy eating fallen leaves
    C. feed on willow tree leaves     D. could communicate with willow trees
    73.Caterpillars will stop eating willow tree leaves which _______
    A . have a chemical change and become tasteless   B. have a pleasant taste
    C. are being attacked                                      D. are communicating
    74.According to the passage, how do willow trees communicate with each other?
    A. They talk in words.                               B. They send a special vapor.
    C. They wave their leaves.                          D. They make special sounds.
    75.According to the passage, bees communicate with each other by _______.
    A. talking                     B. making unusual sounds
    C. singing                     D. flying in certain patterns

    C
    What is it that makes people happy? Youth, health, a good job, good looks, a flash car? None of these things, Spanish experts say.
    The concept（概念） of happiness is thought to be determined by genetics, while the rest depends on childhood environment and the process（过程） of growing up. Perhaps the most surprising thing about happiness is coming under increasingly close examination in Spain.
    As the nation rises to the club of the world's wealthiest countries, people are discovering that material（物质的） things do not bring happiness.
    "Most people use money as a measure of human value," says Jesus Ynfante, author of a book on Spain's 300 biggest fortunes.  "Expensive products are regarded as the best. The rich are admired simply for being rich," Ynfante said.
    Yet psychologists（心理学家） warn that happiness as a moment of ecstatic pleasure(狂喜)--something that, by definition（定义） ,cannot last--while others speak of it as peace and acceptance of oneself. Polls(问卷调查) in different countries indicate that between 65 and 85 percent of the world's population regard themselves as reasonably happy.
    Around 40 percent of a person's happiness is that it has little to do with age, health, wealth, or other values thought to be important in Western society. For most Spaniards, happiness is linked with feeling close to other people. Happy people accept their limitations and set themselves reachable goals, experts say.
    There are life-style choices that favour happiness, such as exercise, eating carbohydrates and exposing oneself to sunlight. But the main secret of happiness is to take pleasure in small things.
    “If you are given a choice between eternal（永久的)happiness and a cheese sandwich, take the sandwich,” advises musician Julian Hernandez.
    58. Spain, as this passage tells us, __________.
    A. has built more clubs than the other countries
    B. has owned the largest group of experts
    C. has become one of the richest countries in the world
    D. has produced the most wealth in the world
    59. It can be concluded that Jesus Ynfante is__________.
    A. a famous expert            B. a famous psychologist
    C. one of the richest Spaniards   D. familiar with the richest Spaniards
    60. As psychologists warn in this passage, people can't feel happy even if they_________.
    A. have too much money       B. only care about themselves
    C. don't do any homework      D. have a few relations
    61 Happy people, as we can find in this passage, __________.
    A. are always full of feelings                  B. are always born in rich families
    C. always enjoy every achievement they get       D. always look down upon themselves

    An Australian company, Smart Car Technologies, has developed a system that lets drivers know when they’re speeding．When the technology becomes commercially available, it could help lead-footed drivers avoid tickets and also save lives．The company that developed the product hopes to convince Australian government agencies to put the technology into use in their automobile fleets.
    The product, called Speed Alert, links real-time location data and speed obtained with the help of GPS(全球定位系统) to a database of posted speed limits stored in a driver’s PDA or programmable mobile phone．The setup of the product does not need to be hooked(钩住) up to a car’s speedometer．In fact, it is entirely portable．It will also work with newer phones and PDAs that have built-in GPS receivers．If a driver exceeds（超过） the speed limit, the speed is shown and an alert sounds.
    Michael Paine, an Australian vehicle design engineer and traffic safety consultant, was hired to analyze the product．He told Live Science  that his colleagues in the road safety field are “very enthusiastic” about what they’re now calling “intelligent speed alert.” Other research, according to Paine, shows that 40 percent of all traffic deaths involve speeding．There is also a potentially future use: “Since the system is so portable, it would be easy to make it a requirement for teenage drivers to always use a speed alert device when driving,” Paine said．“The system even has the function to record speeding violations(违背), so parents can monitor their teenage drivers.”
    The product will soon go on sale in Sydney.
    41．What’s the purpose of the new product_______.
    A．To inform us of the new car system.     B．To introduce some improvement in cars.
    C．To limit certain drivers to safe driving.   D．To popularize the built-in car system.
    42．Lead-footed drivers refer to the ones        .
    A．who drive too carelessly   B．that drive extremely fast
    C．who are partly disabled     D．that drive too slowly
    43．The second paragraph mainly talks about        .
    A．the project of the built-in product     B．why the system becomes popular
    C．the functions of GPS in cars       D．how the product is programmed
    44．Which of the following is true of Speed Alert according to Michael Paine?
    A．Most of the traffic deaths can be avoided. 
    B．Speeding violations can be easily found out.
    C．The system will excite some teenage drivers.
    D．The product will not be available for adults.
