17．A Myth
It is true that world population is growing，but this is not the cause of our current and future global problems．Believing this will cause us to ignore the real problem and risk long-term damage to our planet．
Let me start by explaining why overpopulation is a myth．For one thing，the UN Population Division regularly predicts population growth but provides a low variant  （变量），medium variant，and high variant to factor in various possibilities．In the 2010revision，their high variant suggests that the world population will be almost 16billion in 2100，but the low variant predicts it will peak at 8billion and decrease to just over 6billion by 2100．In most cases，it is the low variant that has come true in the past，suggesting the same will be true of their future population predictions．In addition to this，the size of families is actually decreasing．
For another，if the Earth is overpopulated，there needs to be insufficient （短缺） food，water，and space for humans to live．However，Indian economist Raj Krishna estimates that India alone is able to increase crop produce to the point of providing the entire world's food supply．The World Food Programme confirms that there is sufficient food grown to feed the world and there is the same amount of fresh water on the planet now as there was 10，000years ago．So how is it possible that the number of people in the world is affecting our planet？
Therefore，it is not an increase in population but an increase in consumption that is a severe threat．Materialism and overconsumption are facts of life for everybody in the western world，as possessions reflect a person's status in society and people strive to obtain happiness through owning the latest fashionable goods．Not only that，but waste is a common occurrence which has a huge effect on our resources．It is a sad truth that 80% of the world's resources are currently used by just 20% of the world's population．
Our overconsumption must be addressed now to make our lives more sustainable （可持续的） and avoid continuing the terrible damage to the environment we are causing．The key is education．If we do not work towards this but instead focus on the wrong issue，we may find ourselves living on a planet that can no longer sustain human life．
67．According to the author，what causes our current and future global problems？C
A．The increase in population．
B．Shortage of food and water．
C．The fast growth of material needs．
D．Failure to protect the environment．

A．people should save food and water
B．economists are making wrong predictions
C．wrong judgment leads to serious consequences
D．measures should be taken to reduce population
70．What is mainly discussed in the passage？A
A．The real cause of global problems．
B．The severe effect of overpopulation．

D．Methods to reduce overconsumption．
7．Around 200 people who thought their only experience of the London 2012 Olympic Games would be minor heats of synchronized swimming （花样游泳） have received an unexpected change to the men's 100m final because of an embarrassing ticketing mistake．
The London 2012 Organizing Committee （Locog） confirmed on Wednesday that an error in its ticket selling had led to four synchronized swimming competitions being oversold by 10，000 tickets．
Locog and its ticket agent spent the Christmas period contacting ticket holders and offering them alternatives that included the tickets they had applied for but unsuccessful．The changes need no additional cost．It has also offered to return any discrepancy （差额） if the new tickets cost less than the originals．Locog said the replacement tickets would come from a number of unsold seats across the Olympic Games and that it was doing all it could to make up the error to the fans who bought tickets．
Locog said the error occurred in the summer，between the first and second round of ticket sales，when a member of staff made a mistake，entering"20，000"into the computer rather than the correct figure of 10，000 remaining tickets．The error was discovered when Locog checked the number of tickets that had been sold against the final seating numbers，and began contacting ticket holders before Christmas．
Thousands of ticket holders have already struck lucky，changing to tickets for major events including swimming and athletics finals，and in around 200 cases the hottest of all，the men's 100m final．Locog said the decision to award 100m final tickets was made because one of the synchronized swimming competitions was on the same afternoon as the event，August 5．

36．As a result of the ticketing mistake，about 200 peopleA．
    A．will luckily be able to watch the men's 100m final

37．In order to solve the problem，the LocogD   
    A．required the holders to return the tickets
    B．allowed the holders to apply for another ticket
    C．would charge the discrepancy for changing the tickets
    D．offered to change the tickets without any extra cost

11．In 1857 Louis Pasteur accepted a position at the Ecole Normale Superieure，a prestigious school in Paris．There，he continued the research on fermentation（发酵） that he had started earlier．
Ultimately，his research led to the process of pasteurization（巴斯德氏杀菌法），which uses heat to kill harmful germs in a variety of food products．Later，Pasteur took on industry-related cases such as a disease affecting the silk industry．Beginning in 1865，Pasteur spent three years investigating the bacteria that were the culprits and developing ways to prevent their spread．
In 1866Pasteur lost two daughters to typhoid（伤寒）fever．Two years later he became partially paralyzed（瘫痪）as a result of grief and stress．But despite these difficulties，Pasteur pressed on to even greater accomplishments．
In the late 1870s，Pasteur began research in the emerging scientific field of immunization and developed a vaccine（疫苗） for the deadly disease rabies．Following this success，the Pasteur Institute was founded to support Pasteur's work．Pasteur headed the institute until his death in 1895．Since then，the institute has continued to grow．Today，the institute's headquarters in Paris contain over 130laboratories along with extensive teaching facilities and the institute's own medical center．Over the years，the institute has also extended through the establishment of around thirty research centers in other countries．At each one，researchers help local authorities monitor public health and provide medical treatment．
Unlike many research organizations，the Pasteur Institute is not government funded．Instead it relies on financial gifts that it receives from institutions and ordinary people．This insures the institute's independence and enables it to respond quickly when health needs arise．

16．Teenage boys，regardless of race，are more likely to die from gunshot wounds than from all natural causes combined，
By the time the average American child leaves primary school，he or she will witness 8，000 murders and more than 100，000 acts of violence on televisionYouth are becoming involved in violence at an alarming rate． In fact，the young arrest rate for murder doubled，from 6 arrests per 100，000 youth aged from 10 to 17 to over 12 per 100，000For the many youth who have not been directly exposed to violence in their own communities，the entertainment media （television，movies，music and video games） provides many opportunities for children to see and hear violent exchanges． Research shows that there are about 5～6 violent acts per hour on prime time and 20～25 violent acts on Saturday morning  children's programming． In its report，the American Psychological Association （APA） reported that viewing violence on television hurts children in many ways． In particular，the APA  concludes that children may become less sensitive to the pain and suffering of others，be more  fearful of the world around them，be more likely to behave in aggressive or harmful ways toward others，and gradually accept violence as a way to solve problems．
Another form of violence involving youth is physical punishment in the schools． This form of discipline （纪律） still remains legally supported in 23 nations in America． The Office for Civil Rights in the Department of Education reported that 555，000 students were physically punished in the schools during this school year． Although such punishment has been regarded as an effective method of discipline by those who apply it，the findings are obvious that physical punishment does not work and that children who are victims of physical punishment are subject to potential long-term physical and emotional damage．
