6．"A survey was conducted in Shanghai where interviewees were asked if they wanted to be a factory worker．One percent of all people interviewed said"YES，"Wang Hongjun，a technician，said，raising his voice for dramatic effect．"But I can tell you，only a small part of that 1percent are telling the truth．"
I've met colorful people like Wang all over China．They are cynical （玩世不恭的） yet warmhearted，plain spoken but smart．And many of them are confined （局限于） to work in factories．
Wang is a top technician but also represents manual factory workers，who are China's most important natural resource．Their energy is powering China's economic boom，and their muscle is turning the wheel of the world's factory．
But does their unskilled labor give their life meaning？At school，did they tell their friends："When I grow up I want to work in a factory making socks？"Did you？
Factory work has always been a stepping-stone from farm life to the city and a modern life．It's been happening for centuries，but today，with our space-age technology，it's outdated．Earning 1，200yuan （$169）per month working in a factory is better than that on a farm，but as Wang points out，it's not a dream career．There should be better ways to earn your rice．
Many modern factories no longer have production line workers．Robots do the assembly （装配）．People just do the monitoring．In this age of technology，in which China is now working smarter and not just harder，why are people still standing in production lines？
But life is cheap in China．So why not continue to exploit the low-cost labor situation and keep the economy growing fast，some entrepreneurs may ask．
But have these businessmen ever labored in a factory？

61．How many people surveyed really like to be factory workers？C
A．One percent                               B．Only a small part
C．Only a small part of that one percent     D．The writer didn't mention it．
62．Which is NOT the writer's opinion of factory workers？B
A．cynical             B．unimportant
C．warmhearted         D．plain spoken
63．Wang Hongjun is a person who isC．
A．difficult to get along with
B．humorous but serious
C．cynical but warmhearted，plain spoken but smart
D．full of energy but doesn't want to work hard
64．Which of the following statements is NOT true according to the passage？B
A．Factory workers make contributions to China's economic boom．
B．Working in a factory is better than that on a farm．
C．Factory workers are satisfied with their living conditions．
D．Some entrepreneurs exploited the low-cost labor situation．
65．The writer usesD to begin the passage．
A．a lot of figures      B．many examples
C．some dialogue         D．the result of a survey．

分析 本文是一篇科教类阅读，主要讲述了中国工厂里多彩的技术工这一类人的现实生活状况．

解答 61-65  CBCBD
61题答案：C考查细节推理，根据原文的But I can tell you，only a small part of that 1percent are telling the truth．但是我可以告诉你，只有那百分之一里的一小部分在讲真话．可知本题答案为C选项．
62题答案：B考查细节推理，根据原文第三段的Wang is a top technician but also represents manual factory workers，who are China's most important natural resource．王（先生）是一个高级技工但是同时也代表着体力工厂的工人--他们是中国最重要的自然资源．可知本题答案为B选项．
63题答案：C考查细节推理，根据原文第二段的They are cynical （玩世不恭的） yet warmhearted，plain spoken but smart．可知本题答案为C选项．
64题答案：B考查细节推理，文章只是提到Earning 1，200yuan （$169）per month working in a factory is better than that on a farm（在工厂每个月挣1200元要比在农场强），但是并未说在工厂工作要比在农场工作好；故本题答案为B选项．
65题答案：D考查细节推理，文章是以一项调查的结果开头，故本题答案为D选项．

点评 本文是一篇科教类阅读，题目涉及多道细节理解题，做题时结合原文和题目有针对 性找出相关语句进行仔细分析，结合选项选出正确答案．推理判断也是要在抓住关键句子的基础上合理的分析才能得出正确的答案．

16．In order to help customers to find what they want quickly，it's important to keep the thou-sands of titles in the Main Street Movies store organized properly．This section of the Employee Handbook will tell you how to organize videos．
Each Main Street Movies store has three main sections：
（1）．New Releases Wall．
（2）．Film library．
（3）．Video Games．
New Releases Wall．A1most 70percent of movie rentals are new releases，and that is the first place where most customers go when they enter the store．The center section of shelves on this wall holds Hottest Hits．When new titles come into the store，place them on this wall in alphabetical order．The shelves beside Hottest Hits are called Recent Releases．The New Releases Wall，including the Hottest Hits and Recent Releases shelves，holds about 350titles．
Film Library．The thousands of tides in the Film Library are organized into categories．The films within each category are displayed alphabetically．Here are the categories and their two-letter computer codes：
ACActionDRDramaHOHorror
CHChildrenFAFamilyMUMusic
COComedyFLForeign LanguageSCScience Fiction
*Foreign Language tides include films that were originally made in a foreign language and films with foreign language subtitles．A sticker on the back of each box tells which type of film it is．
Video Game．All the video games in Main Street Movies are arranged in alphabetical order．Although video games represent only a small percentage of our inventory（库存），they are stolen more often than any other type of goods in our store．Therefore，video games are never displayed on the shelves．Shelves in the Video Game section hold cardboard with pictures and information about each game．When a customer wants to rent a particular game，you can find the game from the locked case behind the counter．

14．A team of researchers in California has developed a way to predict what kinds of objects people are looking at by scanning what's happening in their brains．
When you look at something，your eyes send a signal about that object to your brain．Different regions of the brain process the information your eyes send．Cells in your brain called neurons（神经元） are responsible for this processing．
　　The fMRI （functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging功能性磁共振造影） brain scans could generally match electrical activity in the brain to the basic shape of a picture that someone was looking at．
　　Like cells anywhere else in your body，active neurons use oxygen．Blood brings oxygen to the neurons，and the more active a neuron is，the more oxygen it will consume．The more active a region of the brain，the more active its neurons，and in turn，the more blood will travel to that region．And by using fMRI，scientists can visualize which parts of the brain receive more oxygen-rich blood--and therefore，which parts are working to process information．
　　An fMRI machine is a device that scans the brain and measures changes in blood flow to the brain．The technology shows researchers how brain activity changes when a person thinks，looks at something，or carries out an activity like speaking or reading．By highlighting the areas of the brain at work when a person looks at different images，fMRI may help scientists determine specific patterns of brain activity associated with different kinds of images．
　　The California researchers tested brain activity by having two volunteers view hundreds of pictures of everyday objects，like people，animals，and fruits．The scientists used an fMRI machine to record the volunteers'brain activity with each photograph they looked at．Different objects caused different regions of the volunteers'brains to light up on the scan，indicating activity．The scientists used this information to build a model to predict how the brain might respond to any image the eyes see．
In a second test，the scientists asked the volunteers to look at 120 new pictures．Like before，their brains were scanned every time they looked at a new image．This time，the scientists used their model to match the fMRI scans to the image．For example，if a scan in the second test showed the same pattern of brain activity that was strongly，related to pictures of apples in the first test，their model would have predicted the volunteers were looking at apples．
51．What is responsible for processing the information sent by your eyes？C
A．A small region of the brain．
B．The central part of the brain．

1．None of our early ancestors could digest milk as adults because their bodies never had to----milk drinking simply wasn't an option．As people began to extract milk from animals，though，some people developed the ability to keep drinking it throughout their lives．
Scientists now know of a milk-related mutation （ 变异） in our genes--the chemical instructions for life that we carry in almost every cell in our bodies．People who have a mutated form of one particular gene can drink milk just fine．People without the mutation tend to get sick from milk．
To figure out where，and possibly why，milk drinking started，some scientists have been looking at who has the milk-digesting mutation today．Patterns are striking．
Most adults in Northern and Central Europe are able to digest milk--and they do．Cheese and butter and other dairy products are popular in countries such as Sweden，Denmark，Germany and England．Because European settlers dominated North America，most people here can handle milk just fine，as well．That may explain why ice cream is such a popular dessert in the United States．
In much of Africa，Asia and South America，on the other hand，people tend to avoid dairy products because they lead to diarrhea （腹泻） and other stomach problems．（That's why you won't typically find cheese on the menu at a Chinese，Japanese or Ethiopian restaurant．） Native
Americans are also unable to digest milk．
Based on these genetic patterns，scientists have long thought that-milk drinking started inNorthern Europe，where dairy is an institution and the milk-digesting mutation is everywhere．
A recent study painted a different picture．With a computer medal，Thomas and colleagues looked at the spread of the milk-drinking mutation，farming and other related factor．Working backward，the scientists concluded that the first milk-thinkers lived in Central Europe around what's now Hungary about 7，500years ago．The practice didn't start farther north，as scientists had thought before．

66．Which of the following is the proper order of events according to the passage？C
a．Their children were able to digest milk as adults．
b．They got sick from the milk．
c．Some people got a mutation in their genes．
d．Some people tried drinking milk from animals．
e．Some people started to drink milk from animals on a regular basis．
A．c→d→b→e→a     B．d→e→b→c→a    C．d→b→e→c→a     D．e→d→b→c→a
67．Most people in the USA can digest milk becauseB．
A．they have strong stomachs                  B．their ancestors were Europeans
C．that's where milk drinking stinted        D．farmers raise a lot of cows there
68．Which of the following is LEAST likely to appear on the menu in a Japanese restaurant？A

B．Milk drinking first started in Central Europe．
C．North American Indians were able to digest milk．
D．Dairy products are very popular in North Korea．

A．mutation of human genes                B．development of the human stomach
C．why milk drinking started              D．where milk drinking first started．
11．For over 150years the blue whale has been the main target for whalers，who hunt the whale since it was a money-making catch because of its big size，which directly makes it now an endangered species．With a length of about 30meters，the blue whale tops the largest animal list in the world．It is believed that a full grown whale can be 30times the weight of a big elephant and live for 100years．There were as many as 100.000of these giant animals swimming in the oceans before hunting of the blue whale began，while now there might be only a small number of the blue whale．
Although hunting the blue whale has been forbidden，with the females giving birth to only one young whale every two to three years and a gestation （怀孕） period lasting for as long as 11months，it doesn't help work out the problem．The World Conservation Union considers the species to be on the edge of dying out．
Oil spilled into the ocean prevents the blue whale's survival through stopping the whale from getting to the surface to"blast off"the waste air it keeps under the water because with the oil on the surface its skin will get covered and as a result，the whale's blowholes，through which it breathes，can be bloked by the oil．
With global warming，krill，which are very important in the Antarctic food chain，become fewer than before，leading to a damage in the food chain，while the damage of the food chain is one of reasons for the fall in the population of the blue whale．
The fishing ships and nets are also problems for the blue whale．Even if the blue whale has a large and strong body，it can be killed if hit by a stream ship or a fishing boat．And the nets that fishermen use can tangle the blue whale．
However，what's worse，the problems mentioned above aren't only for the blue whale．

64．What plays a key role in making the blue whale an endangered species？D
A．Global warming           B．The oil pollution
C．Large ships and nets     D．Human beings'hunting
65．Why is the problem still unsolved though hunting the blue whale has been forbidden？A
A．Because the blue whale produces only one baby every a few years．
B．Because the ocean becomes unfit for the blue whale to live in．
C．Because the protection for the blue whale is unsuccessful
D．Because the blue whale becomes too weak to survive
66．What trouble will the spilled oil cause for the blue whale？B
A．The blue whale will die if it drinks the oil
B．It makes the blue whale have difficulty feel sick
C．The smell of oil makes the blue whale feel sick
D．It causes serious disease for the blue whale
67．It can be inferred from the passage thatC
A．most of the ocean is seriously polluted by the spilled oil
B．human beings should raise krill to feed he blue whale
C．human beings'activities influence the sea life greatly
D．the blue whale should move to a new place to live．
18．Apparently，we are safe neither at home nor in the business office．We use water in both places，but the research shows that chemicals added to our local water supply to kill harmful bacteria can have unwanted side effects．These chemicals can cause potential harm through drinking and in seemingly harmless activities as cleaning one's house．They are released（set free）from water by daily actions like water running out of tap，spraying from garden pipes，or splashing in dishwashers and washing machines．As the water is moving．these chemicals are released into the air and then breathed in．Once inside our bodies，they start to affect our health．
         Does this mean we should stop bathing？No，say the scientists，but we should put all pollution into perspective．Activities at home such as the burning of coal，cooking oil，or even candles release carbon monoxide and particulates such as cigarette ashes which have been proven as harmful to health as working or living near heavy traffic．New tugs，bedding，and even clothing give off that"new smell，"which is a sure sign of chemicals．In the office，newly applied paint，newly purchased telephones and other telecommunications equipment，and computers release polluting chemicals，too．As offices and homes often have inadequate ventilation （通风），these chemicals can build up to become health problems．Their poisonous effects are only now being slowly recognized．
         These facts suggest that，at a minimum，proper airing of newly purchased goods with an obvious chemical smell is a wise warning．Home and office windows should be opened during good weather．Even one's car needs to be ventilated as well while in the garage．
         We need further research to understand better other potential health dangers，too．For example，the effects of overcrowding of schools （carbon dioxide build-up ），the factory work environment （ an endless list of potentially dangerous substances ），and even home heating and cooling （the air conditioner may be our enemies，not our friends） have only recently started to come to light．Until we understand the effects of our new technological environment better，we can only hope that"there is no place like home．"
64．What is the main idea of the first paragraph？B
A．The air we breathe in is harmful．
B．The water in everyday use is unsafe．
C．Chemicals are added to the drinking water．
D．Chemicals are released in the running water．
65．In Paragraph 2，the underlined sentence means thatC．
A．bathing should be done with caution
B．homes and offices should be aired often
C．any pollution should be taken into consideration
D．we should prevent any pollution from doing harm to us
66．What is the purpose of the passage？C
A．To call on us to guard our water．
B．To show us that no place is like home．
C．To make us aware of the pollution around us．
D．To argue that neither homes nor offices are safe．
15．Having one of those days or weeks-when everything seems to trouble you？Even if you do nothing about it，your bad mood will probably go away after some time．But with a little effort，you can forget it much faster-often within a day or two．
Walk it off
Exercise is the most popular bad-mood buster（破坏者）．A person who's in a bad mood has low energy and high tension．Taking a fast ten-minute walk，or doing some quick exercises can do wonders towards changing that bad mood．
Tune it out
Listening to your favorite music for a while can also make tension go away quickly，because music starts associations with past positive experiences we've had．
Give yourself a pep talk
Stop and listen to what's on your mind．Bad moods are often started by too many negative thoughts．Write them all down on paper； the pessimistic （悲观的） messages you've been giving yourself and then give optimistic answers．（"I still don't have a job．"vs"I have two interviews next week．"）
Reduce your stress
Relaxation techniques are wonderful mood-lifters．These include deep breathing，stretching and visualizing （想象），all of which sound complicated but aren't．One easy way to visualize：close your eyes and picture a favorite place，such as the beach．Another simple way to clear up worries is to make a to-do list．One reason for being in a bad mood is feeling you have no options （选择权）．By taking control over certain areas，you realize you're not helpless．You can make changes in your mood and life．
