    14．Dear Ms．Wang，
      I am writing to inform you of some arrangements about my composition course and Latin course next year．
      I've decided to re-establish the 5-paragraph essay as the goal for the composition course．I interviewed some of my former students and they all agreed that being able to write critically and continuously was important to them．
      So next academic year，Term 1 will be like always：sentences to paragraphing．And Term 2 will work toward the 5-paragraph essay．The final 3 weeks of Term 2 will be reserved to introduce writing for TOEFL and CEE．By that time，if the students have done their job correctly，then they should be able to write quite well．
      As for the Latin course，I will post notices around campus next week so that the students will understand what's on offer before I actually introduce the course．A number of students already emailed me about the course．
      I am sure you don't understand what a big deal our opening this program at our school is．People around the world are interested in what we plan to do．There are many rewards available to the students who succeed in the course．Please share what I have sai d with the administration．I want them to understand the importance of this course．The reason I have contacted these colleagues （actually Oxford contacted me） is that I have confidence in our students and in myself．I know that when those professors meet our students and hear them speaking and reading Latin，they are going to be amazed．It will open all sorts of doors for students that they never even thought of knocking on．
      Well，that's it for now．I'll see you soon．
    Yours，
    Edward Johnson21．According to the letter，what will Edward teach about writing in Term 1？C
    A．Critical thinking．
    B.5-paragraph essay．

    A．has aroused students'interest           
    B．enjoys a nationwide reputation      
    C．has won a number of awards            
    D．benefits anyone who takes it

    2．The extraordinary Eastgate Building in Harare，Zimbabwe's capital city，is said to be the only one in the world to use the same cooling and heating principles as the termite mound（白蚁堆）．
    Architect Mick Pearce used precisely the same strategy when designing the Eastgate Building，which has no air-conditioning and almost no heating．The building-the country's largest commercial and shopping complex-uses less than 10% of the energy of a conventional building of its size．The Eastgate's owners saved 3.5millionona36million building because an air-conditioning equipment didn't have to be imported．
    The complex is actually two buildings linked by bridges across a shady，glass-roofed atrium（天井） open to the air．Fans suck fresh air in from the atrium，blow it upstairs through hollow spaces under the floors and from there into each office through baseboard vents（通风口）．As it rises and warms，it is drawn out via ceiling vents and finally exists through forty-eight brick chimneys．
    During summer's cool nights，big fans blow air through the building seven times an hour to cool the empty floors．By day，smaller fans blow two changes of air an hour through the building，to circulate the air which has been in contact with the cool floors．For winter days，there are small heaters in the vents．
    This is all possible only because Harare i 1600feet above sea level，has cloudless skies，little dampness and rapid temperature changes-days as warm as 31℃commonly drop to 14℃at night．"You couldn't do this in New York，with its hot summers and cold winters，"Pearce said．
    The engineering firm of Ove Arup&Partners monitors daily temperatures．It is found that the temperature of the building has generally stayed etween 23℃and 25℃，with the exception of the annual hot period just before the summer rains in October and three days in November，when a doorkeeper accidentally switched off the fans at night．And the air is fresh-far more so than in air-conditioned buildings，where up to 30% of the air is recycled．

    29．Why was Eastgate cheaper to be built than a conventional building？B
    A．It was designed in a smaller size．
    B．No air conditioners were fixed in．
    C．Its heating system was less advanced．
    D．It used rather different building materials．
    30．What does"it"refer to in Paragraph 3？A
    A．Fresh air from outside．B．Heat in the building．
    C．Hollow space．D．Baseboard vent．
    31．Why would a building like Eastgate Not work efficiently in New York？D
    A．New York has less clear skies as Harare．
    B．Its dampness affects the circulation of air．
    C．New York covers a larger area than Harare．
    D．Its temperature changes seasonally rather than daily．
    32．The data in the last paragraph suggests Eastgate's temperature control systemB．
    A．allows a wide range of temperatures
    B．functions well for most of the year
    C．can recycle up to 30% of the air
    D．works better in hot seasons．

    6．Many of the world's countries have reached or are approaching zero population growth （ZPG）．Nearly all such lands are economically well developed．They include much of Europe（including Russia），the United States，Canada，Japan．and Australia．As the rate of natural increase（RNI）declines（下降），two things happen．First，the population begins to decline if the loss is not balanced by immigration（移民）．Second，a country's population ages because there are fewer births．
    Is achieving ZPG good or bad？What happens when a country's population begins to drop？Many people，after all，believe that population decline is a good thing．But is it good for everyone？Does everyone agree？
    An aging population can create many problems．Senior citizens require more health care and medical attention．Rather than paying into retirement programs，they begin to draw from their pensions（退休金）．In the US，the Social Security program，according to many experts，will be used up by 2018．It will pay out more money than it takes in．Additionally，a great number of jobs go begging in search of people willing or entry level positions that pay low wages．With an ability to do them many of these jobs are aging population，who will fill them？At the other extreme，some positions require a large number of training and highly specialized skills．Who will fill these positions as retirees leave the workforce？
    The answer to the problem of declining and aging population is simple：increased migration（移居）．
    Today many people，particularly those from less developed countries，are migrating in search of employment．Many are willing to take jobs that cannot（or will not） be filled bythe domestic（国内的） population．Others are well educated and highly skilled．Both groups contribute to a country's economy progress in many ways．Further，they add to the richness of a country's culture．Of greatest importance，perhaps，is the fact that they have become absolutely（完全地）necessary to the economy of many lands．As you can see，for many countries and for most immigrants，migration is a win-win situation．

    29．In the writer's view，which of the following statements is TRUEA？
    A．Not everyone agrees that achieving ZPG is absolutely good
    B．Achieving ZPG is every country's aim（目标） in spite of its side effects
    C．Achieving ZPG is bad for senior citizens
    D．Achieving ZPG is good for employment
    30．According to the passage，the best way to solve the problem of declining and aging population isD．
    A．to improve the health care system
    B．to increase RNI
    C．to increase employment               
    D．to increase migration
    31．The main idea of the last paragraph isA．
    A．the advantages of increased migration
    B．the problem of declining and aging population
    C．how to increase migration
    D．some ways to enrich a country's culture．
