阅读下列短文, 从所给的四个选项中, 选出最佳答案。

        

    Bolivia has a population of three and a half million. About   one-tenth of the total population are white; one-fourth are mixed   Indians and white; and more than half are full-blooded Indians. The   government and the industries are under the control of the white   people.

        

    The Indians today live in much the same way as their ancestors (祖   先). Most of them are farmers. Many work in the mines, for mining is   the most important industry in Bolivia. Of all the mining products,   tin is the most important, which makes up three-fourths of all   Bolivia's exports (出口). The eastern slopes (坡) of the Andes, since   there are very few roads there, are fertile (富饶的) but not highly   developed. The two primary means of transportation are river boats and   porters. East of the hill region are the great plains where tropical   (热带的) plants are grown. A serious problem for Bolivia is the   transport of food from the warm regions, where it is grown, to the   mountainous regions, where most of the people live.

        

    Bolivia gained its independence (独立) from Spain about a hundred   years ago. It has been slow in developing, but its rich resources   promise a better future for it.

(4)   The eastern slopes of the Andes is not highly developed because        __________.

     

[    ]

A. there are thick forests there        

     

B. there are very few roads there

D. they are not fertile enough

  Thinking of throwing your old cell phone?Think again.Maybe you should mine it first for gold, silver and other metals.It’s called“urban mining”, searching through the small pieces of metal in electronic products for gold, silver and other expensive metals.It is a growing industry around the world as prices for metal grow higher and higher.

  The gold and other precious metals from electronic products are melted down and then sold.The metals can be made into jewelry or circuit(电路)for mobile phones.“It can be precious, so we want to recycle whatever we can,”said Tadahiko Sekigawa, president of Eco-System Recycling Co.Ltd.

  A ton of ore(矿石)from a gold mine produces just 5 grams of gold on average, while a ton of mobile phones can give 150 grams or more, according to a study by Yokohama Metal Co-Ltd., another recycling company.The same amount of useless mobile phones also contains around 100 kg of copper and 3 kg of silver, among other metals.

  Recycling has become more important because prices of metals have hit record highs.Eco-Systems, opened 20 years ago near Tokyo, usually produces about 200 to 300 kg of gold bars a month, worth about $5.9 million to $8.8 million.That’s about the same as a small gold mine.

Reading Comprehension

  More than 200 scientists have completed a two-year study to identify the most natural and undeveloped areas on Earth.Their findings are reported in a new book called WildernessEarth’s Last Wild Places.The book describes 37 wilderness areas around the world.Each has an area greater than 10,000 square kilometers.The study considered only areas where at least 70% of all plants are native.

  North and South America are home to the largest number of wilderness areas.There are 16 such areas, from southern Argentina to Alaska and northern Canada.Africa has 8 wilderness areas, including the thick forests and the grasslands.Australia and New Guinea(几内亚)share 6 areas.Europe has 3 areas and Asia has 2.The Arabian Desert and Antarctica also are considered wilderness areas.

  The largest wilderness area is the Boreal Forest(北方森林).It extends for 16-million square kilometers south of the Arctic Circle.The Boreal Forest extends across Alaska, Canada, northern Europe and Russia.The smallest of the 37 wilderness areas is the Sundarbans.It is the world’s largest tidal mangrove forest(红树林).It covers 10,000 square kilometers of land at the mouth of the Ganges River in India and Bangladesh(孟加拉国).

  The study found that wilderness areas cover about 46% of the Earth’s land surface.However, they are home to less than 2.5% of the world’s population.Nineteen of the wilderness areas have only about one person for each square kilometer.Native people usually live in these areas.

  Wilderness areas help to influence the world’s weather systems and rainfall.They are also home to many plants and animals.Population growth and the spread of agriculture and mining operations threaten wilderness areas.But just 7% of all such areas have some form of official protection.

阅读理解

  Important changes took place in the lives of women in the 19th century.When men went out from their farms to cities to seek jobs in industry, peasant women had to take over the sowing, growing, and harvesting of the fields as well as caring for cattle and raising their children.When women also moved to the cities in search of work, they found that it was increasingly separated by sex and that employment opportunities for women were limited to the lower-paid jobs.Later in the century, women in industry gathered mainly in cloth-making factories, though some worked in mining or took similarly difficult and tiring jobs.

  In the 1800s, service work also absorbed a great number of women who arrived in the cities from the country.Young women especially took jobs as servants in middle-class and upper-class homes; and as more and more men were drawn into industry, domestic(家务的)service became increasingly a female job.In the second half of the century, however, chances of other service work also opened up to women, from sales jobs in shops to teaching and nursing.These jobs came to be done mainly by women.

  For thousands of years, when almost all work was done on the family farm or in the family firm, home and workplace had been the same.In these cases, women could do farm work or hand work, and perform home duties such as child care and preparation of meals at the same time.Along with the development of industry, the central workplace, however, such as the factory and the department store, separated home from work.Faced with the necessity for women to choose between home and workplace, Western society began to give particular attention to the role of women as homemakers with more energy than ever before.

(1)

We learn from the first paragraph that ________ had been done chiefly by men before they went to cities to seek jobs.

[  ]

A.

mining, teaching, and nursing

B.

sewing clothes and mining

C.

sowing, growing, and harvesting

D.

caring for cattle and growing crops

(2)

Domestic service became a female job mainly because ________.

[  ]

A.

women took care of children

B.

women took jobs as servants

C.

men were employed in industry

D.

men seldom worked in shops

(3)

We know from the passage that in the 1800s ________.

[  ]

A.

more and more women began to work in domestic service

B.

women mainly worked as servants, nurses, and miners

C.

service and industrial jobs absorbed more women than men

D.

women enjoyed working as sellers, teachers, and miners

(4)

This passage is about ________ in the 19th century.

[  ]

A.

service and industry

B.

female and male

C.
