15.There is a definite possibility that the climate of the world may be changing.Some scientists imagine that this could even mean the beginning of another ice age.The effects of such a change in climate on the human population of the world would be amazing.
  Recent research suggests that the general warming trend of the past hundred years or so may be coming to an end.During the past ten years,meteorologists(气象学家)tell us the average temperature of the earth has dropped about one degree Fahrenheit.This does not seem like much,but it could have effects on wind and rain patterns which influence the overall weather picture.If these patterns change a lot,it could mean that certain regions of the world may continue to have long droughts(干旱)while others will possibly suffer from widespread flooding.
  What regulates the climate is not exactly known.Meteorologists believe that clouds may be an important factor in regulating the amount of solar(太阳的)heat held by the earth,which in turn determines the temperature of the planet.Another possibility is that man's industrial and agricultural methods may be affecting the natural weather patterns.However,the weather is not understood well enough for scientists to say for certain what is happening to the climate and what side effects this will actually have on the world's population.
56.According to the text,the climate of the world seems toA.
A.be getting colder
B.be getting warmer
C.remain the same in the past ten years
D.have good effects on the world's population
57.According to what you have read,which of the following is true?D
A.Another ice age will come soon.
B.Man's activities have no effect on the climate.
C.People don't care about the changing climate.
D.Scientists are not yet sure about the reason for the changing climate.
58.The underlined word"regulates"in the third paragraph probably means"B".
A.manages          B.controls        C.prevents       D.protects
59.The best title for the text would beC.

5.Since ninety-eight percent of Hong Kong people are Chinese,half of them from Mainland China who know little English,there seems to be no valid reason why Chinese should not be one of the official languages of Hong Kong.
Generally,none-English speaking Chinese make out very well.It is mostly the courts that they experienced any great difficulty-Hong Kong's law and court proceedings are in English-because,apparently,not sufficient attention is given to translating laws and procedures into Chinese.
One other difficulty lies in the field of official communication-from Government offices.It seems no more than reasonable that such communications addressed to Chinese people should be in both Chinese and English.
The Chinese Language Committee has,in its four reports to Government,proposed that the Chinese language should have equal status with the English language in meetings of the Legislative Council,the Urban Council and Government Boards and Committees; in oral and written communications between Government and the public; in court-proceedings and the language of the law; and in the Hong Kong School Certificate of Education Examinations-all that by 1974 or 1975.
The key-word in the recommendation is status,as Judge T.L.Yang,Chairman of the Legal Sub-committee of the government-appointed Chinese Language Committee,pointed out.He is not happy with the term Fat Ting U Men which the Committee adopted to indicate the official status of the Chinese language.His Honor preferred Kun Fong U Men,meaning a language used by the government.
In other words,such official language,whether Chinese or English,need not necessarily be used in every instance.Consequently,situations may occur in which only Chinese is used by the government and,again,other communication situations in which only English is used.As one Chinese newspaper editorial pointed out,equal status does not necessarily mean equal use-whether in law or any other official communication.
The result of the Chinese Language Committee's four Reports seems to be that Chinese and English are now used in the Urban Council and the Legislative Council meetings and are likely to be used shortly in other circumstances prospected by that Committee.Let it be noted,however,that in Hong Kong,as everywhere else,new ideas take hold very slowly-unless pressure is exerted from some quarter or another.
For instance,after the demonstrations by post-secondary students in favor of Chinese as an official language,Government communicated with the public in both Chinese and English.However,when such communication appeared in writing,the Chinese translation was often so inadequate that the receivers,if they were able,read the English to understand the meaning of the Chinese.

74.According to the writer,Chinese should be made an official language becauseC.
A.most Hong Kong citizens have an adequate command of Chinese
B.some Hong Kong citizens find considerable difficulty in legal language
C.the population of Hong Kong is predominantly Chinese
D.the national pride of the Hong Kong Chinese urges them to demand it.
75.The main idea of the sixth paragraph is thatD.
A.equal status of English and Chinese means equal use
B.only Chinese should be used in official communication
C.both English and Chinese should be employed in all official communication
D.both English and Chinese or either language should be used as the situation demands
76.The phrase or word nearest in meaning to take hold in the seventh paragraph isD.
A.fasten upon the mind      
B.grasp
C.are rejected                            
D.are accepted
77.The writer,in his conclusion,implies thatC.
A.the government will be forced to accept Chinese as an official language
B.good translators are definitely inadequate in Hong Kong
C.many difficulties will arise from translating English into Chinese
D.a person has to be bilingual (双语的) before he understands translations in Chinese.
12.A Dangerous Journey

  On July 2,1937,Amelia Earhart and Fred Noonan left New Guinea for Howland Island in the Pacific.This was the longest and most dangerous part of their trip around the world.Earhart had trouble shortly after takeoff.The weather was stormy,so she had to fly at 3,000 meters (10,000 feet).Going this high,the plane used gas quickly.
  After about twenty hours,Earhart and Noonan approached Howland Island.The island was only about 105 kilometers (65 miles) away,but the bright sun was shining in their faces so they couldn't see it.Near Howland,a ship,the Itasca,was waiting.Earhart contacted the ship:"Gas is low,"she said.The Itasca tried to maintain contact with her but got no response.Finally,the Itasca called for help.People searched for Earhart and Noonan for days.Despite the searchers'efforts,they found nothing.
Missing!
  What happened to Amelia Earhart?No one knows for sure.During the flight,she probably headed in the wrong direction because the sun was bright and it was hard to see.So she got lost; soon after,her plane ran out of gas,and she died at sea.Another idea is that she survived the plane crash,swam to an uninhabited (无人居住的) island,and later died there.Still others think she survived the crash and secretly returned to the U.S.with a new identity.
  Although the first theory seems most likely,none of these ideas has been proven.Today,people are still looking into Earhart's and Noonan's disappearance.(Noonan's body has also never been found.) Whatever happened,Amelia probably died as she wished."When I go,"she said,"I'd like best to go in my plane."

46.Why was flying to Howland Island difficult?D
A.Earhart was sick after takeoff.
B.The sun was too bright and shining.
C.Their plane was damaged.
D.It was very far from New Guinea.
47.Which statement would the writer most probably agree with?A
A.Amelia's plane probably ran out of gas and she died at sea.
B.It is possible that Fred Noonan killed Amelia Earhart.
C.Amelia Earhart probably died on an island in the Pacific.
D.Fred Noonan might still be alive today.
48.What does the underlined word"go"in the last paragraph mean?C
A.fly                             
B.leave                      
C.die                          
D.travel.
10.A.Don't assume that the sticker price is the purchase price.
To get the lowest price,go in with a starting price that's based not on the sticker price but on how much the dealer paid for the vehicle.A reasonable price to start negotiations is either 4 to 8 percent over what the dealer paid or the CR Wholesale Price,depending on the demand for the model.
B.Do your homework.
Thoroughly research your choices.Read a variety of reviews.Check the reliability,safety,fuel economy,and pricing of any models you're considering.And don't wait until the day you plan to buy to test drive the vehicles.If you have a trade-in,know its approximate worth.That will depend on the vehicle's age,condition,mileage,and equipment,as well as where you trade it in.
C.Negotiate one thing at one time.
        Make clear that you want the lowest possible mark-up over your starting price.Add that you intend to visit other dealerships selling the same vehicle and will buy from the dealer with the best price.Only after you've settled on the price should you discuss financing,leasing,or a trade-in,as necessary.Negotiate each item individually.Remember,you're in charge and can leave at any time.Heading for the door can sometimes jump-start a slow-moving negotiation or bring a lower offer.
D.Don't pay for extras you don't need.
        Don't accept those unnecessary services and fees.If the items are on the bill of sale,put a line through them.Vehicle bodies are already coated to protect against rust.And CR reliability survey show that rust is not a major problem with modern cars.You can treat upholstery and apply paint protectant yourself with good off-the-shelf products.You can do your own VN etching with a kit that costs about $25.
E.Other costs.
In addition to the vehicle price,you need to consider other costs,including:Sales tax; Registration fees; Insurance premiums Taxes and registration fees can increase your out-of-pocket cost by as much as 10 percent or more,and driving a car that's worth more than your current one will cost more to insure.Be sure to check with your insurance agent or get insurance quotes online so you understand what you're getting into.
F.Arrange financing in advance.
Compare interest rates at several banks,credit unions,and loan organizations before checking the dealer's rates.If pre-approved for a loan(贷款),you can keep financial arrangements out of the negotiations.Automakers may offer attractive financing terms,but make sure you qualify for them.
 
请结合以上建议,与下面的情形进行匹配.
46.Many dealerships prey on the unprepared.Going into a showroom"cold"--without having gathered key facts and preliminary(初步的) pricing figures--gives the salesperson too much control over the buying process.B
47.The dealer invoice price is commonly available on Web sites and in pricing guides.But the invoice price isn't necessarily what the dealer paid.There are often behind-the-scenes bonuses(幕后红利),such as dealer incentives(奖励) and holdbacks,that give the dealer more profit margin(空间).A
48.Salespeople like to mix financing,leasing,and trade-in negotiations together,often asking you to negotiate around a monthly payment figure.This tactic(策略) gives the dealer more latitude to offer you a favorable figure in one area while inflating(抬高)figures in another.C
49.The salesperson may try to sign you up for a higher interest rate than you could get elsewhere.F
50.Dealers often try to sellyou extras such as rust proofing,fabric protection,and paint protection or push etching your Vehicle Identification Number on windows to deter thieves.D.
