　　The oldest stone buildings in the world are the pyramids．　　1　　．There are over eighty of them scattered along the banks of the Nile, some of which are different in shape from the true pyramids．The most famous of these are the“step”pyramid and“Bent"pyramid．

　　Some of the pyramids still look much the same as they must have done when they were built thousands of years ago．Most of the damage suffered by the others has been at the hands of men who were looking for treasure or, more often, for stone to use in modern buildings．　　2　　．These are good reasons why they can still be seen today, but perhaps the most important is that they were planned to last forever．　　3　　．However, there are no writings or pictures to show us how the Egyptians planned or built the pyramids themselves．　　4　　．Nevertheless, by examining the actual pyramids and various tools which have been found, archaeologists have formed a fairly clear picture of them．

　　One thing is certain：there must have been months of careful planning before they could begin to build．　　5　　．You may think this would have been easy with miles and miles of empty desert around, but a pyramid could not be built just anywhere．Certain rules had to be followed, and certain problems had to be overcome．

A．The dry climate of Egypt has helped to preserve the pyramids, and their very shape have made them less likely to fall into ruin．

B．It is practically certain that plans were made for the building of the pyramids because the plans of other large works have fortunately been preserved．

C．The first thing they had to do was to choose a suitable place．

D．Consequently, we are only able to guess at the methods used．

E．Many people were killed while building the pyramids．

F．They have stood for nearly 5, 0 years, and it seems likely that they will continue to stand for thousands of years yet．

G．It takes workers twenty years to build the Pyramids．

The Port of Shanghai, a hub(中心)of water-land transport and trade on China’s coast since the Song Dynasty early in mid-twelfth century, is the biggest port on China’s mainland for international shipping．The annual cargo throughput(吞吐量) of the port hit another record high of 176 million tons in 1993．The volume of International containers has reached the historical highest point．

2．________

By now the Port of Shanghai has established maritime trade relations with more than 400 ports in over 160 countries and regions in the world, with 21 international regular lines starting from the port on over 100 voyages per month directly to North America, Europe, Australia, the Persian Gulf, the Mediterranean as well as Southeast and Northeast Asia and so on．

3．________

Following the continuous and steady new growth in China’s national economy, the Port of Shanghai has, over the six years from 1988 to 1993, made an investment of RMB￥2.3 billion in capital construction and renovation(革新), and updated a large number of handling machines．Both cargo throughput(吞吐量) capacity and handling efficiency of the port have increased remarkably．

4．________

Today, the port has become one of the hot spots that attract both attention and investment from other parts of China and the whole world．During his visit in Shanghai in the spring of 1992, Deng Xiaoping expressed his hope that Shanghai would show some changes every year．Taking this as its objective, the Port of Shanghai has been quickening the steps in its operational and commercial activities as well as construction of deep-water port areas．

5．________

The four marginal berths of Waigaoqiao New Port Area have been largely completed and put into operation．Construction of the Luojing Coal Terminal was started at the end of 1993．Grain Silos with a capacity of 80,000 tons and a modern communication building for water traffic are both showing signs of completion．Construction of coastal, domestic and international passenger terminals has substantially entered its initial stage．The deep water port area at Jinshanzui shall open a new chapter in the history of the Port of Shanghai．

The following people are expressing their thoughts (61-65) to show their concern for food, environment and so on．After that are pieces of related information (A-F)．Now decide which piece of information would be most suitable for the thought and idea mentioned in questions 61-65 and mark your answer letter(A-F)on your answer sheet．There is one extra paragraph which you do not need to use．

________1．How I was struck by the clear water and fresh air in my childhood!But everything has changed, that is, the clear water and fresh air are nowhere to be found again as they were．Above all, a great deal of waste hardly rots away．

________2．More and more people are beginning to have a good knowledge of the importance of a safer and cleaner environment, which in turn forces the business to be cleaned up．

________3．Organic products are getting more and more popular among people, but we should know the fact that organic products might also have something to do with pesticides．

________4．I’m very much fond of growing some vegetables of my own in my small garden, for many vegetables on sale in markets are actually becoming more and more dangerous as a result of widespread pesticides．

________5．Nowadays it is very convenient for consumers to find and buy green food in supermarkets as they are clearly marked．

A．“Organic product is always better ,”Gold said．“The food is free of pesticides(农药), and you are generally supporting family farms instead of large farms．And more often than not it is locally grown and seasonal, so it is more tasty．”Gold is one of a growing number of shoppers buying into the organic trend, and supermarkets across Britain are counting on more like him as they grow their organic food business．

B．Market research shows that Gold and others who buy organic food can generally give clear reasons for their preferences-but their knowledge of organic food is far from complete．For example, small amounts of pesticides can be used on organic products．And about three quarters of organic food in Britain is not local but imported to meet growing demand．“The demand for organic food is increasing by about one third every year, so it is a very fast-growing market ,”said Sue Flock, a specialist in this line of business．

C．Many cities around the world today are heavily polluted．Careless methods of production and lack of consumer demand for environment-friendly products have contributed to the pollution problem．One result is that millions of tons of glass, paper, plastic, and metal containers are produced, and these are difficult to get rid of．

D．However, today, more and more consumers are choosing“green”and demanding that the products they buy should be safe for the environment．Before they buy a product, they ask questions like these：“Will this shampoo damage the environment?”“Can this metal container be reused or can it only be used once?”

E．Only a few years ago, it was impossible to find green products in supermarkets, but now there are hundreds．Some supermarket products carry labels(标签)to show that the product is green．Some companies have made the manufacturing(制造)of clean and safe products their main selling point and emphasize it in their advertising．

F．The concern for a safer and cleaner environment is making companies rethink how they do business．No longer will the public accept the old attitude of“Buy it, use it, throw it away, and forget it．”The public pressure is on, and gradually business is cleaning up its act．

Mike Smith, Tom Brown, Bob Davis, Baker, Slater are giving their opinions on the strike(罢工)

________ 1．Mike Smith

It wasn’t an easy decision, but we’ve been asking for a decent wage for years．Now at last people are beginning to listen to us because we work day and night to keep this country alive and what do we get?－200 dollars a week．That’s not enough to raise a family at today’s prices．Inflation this year was 32 percent．We’ve only asking for a 25 percent increase in our wages．250 dollars a week, that’s all．It’s a pity so many people have to be inconvenienced by our strike．That’s what you should blame．Blame the government for refusing our claim．

________ 2．Tom Brown

It’s totally unreasonable to demand so much money when we are trying desperately to control inflation．If wages go up, so do prices．If we gave in to the electricity workers, all the other unions would want more, with the certain result that the crisis would become uncontrollable．What we’re trying to impress upon everybody is that inflation hurts everybody, especially the poor people．We offer the electricity workers a 10 percent increase．And that’s already too much．My stand at this meeting is to persuade the Union to see reason．

________ 3．Bob Davis

Everybody will be hurt by this strike, including the electricity workers themselves．The economy will be destroyed and many people will lose their jobs．Moreover, the very image of the trade union movement will be harmed．Already people are saying that the big unions have too much power and shouldn’t be allowed to strike．Of course the electricity workers want to get more money．Don’t we all? Of course we all do．But we’re not asking for 250 dollars a week．Why should they?

________ 4．Baker

My opinion is“Get the Army in”．All the power stations should be managed by the army．The strikers should be thrown into prison．That’s what this country needs．Why must we all suffer just because a few men are greedy? If they don’t like their jobs, nobody’s forcing them to work．They should try and live on 50 dollars a week like I have to．Perhaps they’d keep their mouths shut then．

________ 5．Slater

Let’s face it．It’s neither here nor there．The electricity workers are in a strong position．Perhaps we can’t do anything about it．What I say is: let them have their 250 dollars so we can return to work．I mean, the government wastes the taxpayers’ money all the time on trivial things．How can anyone say 250 dollars is “too much”? Pop singers get more．Nurses get less．It’s just one of those things．

A．A 10% increase is already too much, and I’m here to persuade the Union to see reason．

B．We will never go back to work until our goals are achieved．

C．I think that the government should give in to the electricity worker’s demands．

D．I strongly suggest that all the power stations should be run by the army and that the strikers should be put into prison．

E．I must make you clear that strikes will destroy the economy and that many people will lost their jobs．

F．We are forced to call a strike because the government rejected our wage claim．

4．________

But, behind the beautiful scenes, Bollywood still emphasizes traditional family values．In most films, if two lovers want to break an arranged marriage, they can't just run away．They must win over their parents．
