    4．Tom never dreamt of         a chance for him to be sent abroad soon．（　　）
    A．havingB．there isC．there to beD．there being

    分析 汤姆从来没有想到他很快就有被派往国外的机会．

    解答 答案  D 因为前面有dream of 后面要接doing形式，而后面接的是there be表示"有"机会所以把be变换形式为being．选项A具有较大的迷惑性，如果用having，后面就没有必要用for him，故答案为D

    点评 本题考查there be 结构的动名词结构作介词的宾语，表示存在时使用there be 结构，而非have．

    4．There is growing concern about food insecurity in the developing world．Rising food prices，weather emergencies and political problems are deepening the struggle for families in many countries．
    Three UN agencies have published a report recently，saying high prices are likely to continue．Gregory Barrow，who is with the World Food Program in Rome，says，"If you look at the places where the World Food Program works，particularly in developing countries，you see people who might be spending more than 60percent of their salary in purchasing food for their families．"
    East Africa is suffering its worst drought in years．In Kenya，at least three and a half million people are going hungry，mostly in the north．Yet food is going to waste in central Kenya．Now，farmers there want the government to buy their food and give it to those in need．Farmers say bad roads and lack of transportation make it difficult for them to get their produce to the market．
    Mr．Barrow says，"It needs the government to make some arrangements such as prviding transport．They can buy it at a good price，then give it to those people instead of asking for food from overseas，which is very bad．When we are throwing away food，they are asking for food from overseas．"
    Economists say that imports reduce local food prices，decrease productivity（生产效率） and increase the dependency on other countries．Farmers in Kenya hope the government can pay higher prices for their crops so that they can feed more Kenyans．
    32．What is the best title for this passage？C
    A．Kenya Imports Food from Abroad
    B．World Food Program in Rome．
    C．The Poor Suffer from High Food Prices．
    D．A Report Published by Three UN Agencies．
    33．What do we know about Kenya from the passage？B
    A．The people in central Kenya are suffering from hunger．
    B．At least three and a half million Kenyans lack food．
    C．The Kenyan government wants to improve road conditions．
    D．People in northern Kenya refuse to ask for food from overseas．
    34．What does"they"in the fourth paragraph refer to？B
    A．The people of northern Kenya．
    B．Government officials．
    C．The farmers of central Kenya．
    D．Kenyan economists．
    35．Which of the following statements is TRUE，according to this passage？C
    A．Gregory Barrow suggests that Kenya make good use of overseas food．
    B．People in northern Kenya are suffering the drought less than the central．
    C．Economists believe importing food from abroad may cause problems．
    D．Kenyan government hopes to buy the native crops at higher prices．

    19．We like to think our intelligence is self-made； it happens inside our heads，the product of our inner thoughts alone．But the rise of Google，Wikipedia and other online tools has made many people question the impact of these technologies on our brains．Is typing in"Who has played James Bond in the movies？"the same as our knowledge about the names like Roger Moore，Timothy Dalton，Pierce Brosnan and Daniel Craig？Can we say we know the answer as long as we know how to rapidly get the information on Google？
    Here the question is about how we define intelligence itself．The answer appears to be interesting，because the evidence from psychological studies suggests that much of our intelligence comes from how we coordinate ourselves with other people and our environment．
    An influential theory among psychologists is that we're cognitive misers（认知吝啬者）．This is the idea that we are unwilling to do mental work unless we have to．We try to avoid thinking things fully when a short cut is available．If you've ever voted for the presidential candidate（总统候选人） with the most honest smile，or chosen a restaurant based on how many people are already sitting in there，then you are a cognitive miser．The theory explains why we'd much rather type a zip code into Google Maps than memorize and recall the location of a place-it's so much easier to do so．
    Research shows that people don't tend to rely on their memories for things they can easily access．Buildings can somehow disappear from pictures we're looking at，or the people we're talking to can be changed with someone else，and often we won't notice-a phenomenon called"change blindness"．This isn't an example of human stupidity-far from it，in fact-this is an example of mental efficiency．The mind relies on the world as a better record than memory．
    Philosophers have suggested that thinking is really happening in the environment as much as it is happening in our brains．The philosopher Andy Clark called humans"natural born cyborgs（电子人）"，those naturally capable of absorbing and combining new tools，ideas and abilities．In Clark's view，the route to a solution is not the issue-having the right tools really does mean you know the answers，just as much as already knowing the answer．
    Rather than being forced to rely on our own resources for everything，we can share our knowledge．Technology keeps track of things for us so we don't have to，while large systems of knowledge serve the needs of society as a whole．I don't know how a computer works，or how to grow vegetables，but that knowledge is out there and I can get to benefit．The internet provides even more potential to share this knowledge．Wikipedia is one of the best examples-an increasingly large database of knowledge from which everyone can benefit．
    So as well as having a physical environment-like the rooms or buildings we live or work in-we also have a mental environment，which means that when I ask you where your mind is，you shouldn't point toward the centre of your forehead．As research shows，our minds are made up just as much by the people and tools around us as they are by the brain cells inside our skull．

    50．Why did the writer raise the questions in Paragraph 1？B
    A．To find out who has played James Bond in the movies．
    B．To introduce the topic to be discussed in the passage．
    C．To show that he knows the answer to the questions．
    D．To attract readers'attention by mentioning James Bond．
    51．What is the writer's attitude towards the rise of technologies like Google and Wikipedia？A
    A．Supportive    
    B．Objective       
    C．Indifferent    
    D．Neutral
    52．Which of the following might the philosopher Andy Clark agree with？D
    A．Intelligence is something that is made by one's brain itself．
    B．Intelligence is something that only happens inside one's head．
    C．Intelligence is the product of one's inner thoughts alone．
    D．Intelligence is a mixture of the environment，people and one's brain cells．
    53．It is true about the phenomenon called"change blindness"that human beingsB．
    A．are stupid not to notice the changes
    B．are efficient in mental work
    C．are blind to changes around them  
    D．rely on memory when dealing with things
    54．According to the text，how do technologies like Google，Wikipedia affect us？A
    A．They make us much more intelligent．
    B．They make us lazier and more stupid．
    C．They have little to do with our intelligence．
    D．They have a negative effect on our intelligence．
