    Is it possible to persuade mankind to live without war? War is an ancient custom which has existed for at least six thousand years. It was always evil and usually foolish, but in the past the human race managed to live with it. Modern skill has changed this. Either man will stop war, or war will stop man. For the present, it is nuclear weapons that cause the greatest danger, but bacteriological( 细菌的 ) or chemical weapons may, before long, offer an even greater threat. If we succeeded in stopping war, there would be no danger for us. To do this, we need to persuade mankind to look upon international questions in a new way, not by contests of force, in which the victory goes to the side which is most skillful in massacre (大屠杀 ),but by arbitration (仲裁）in accordance with agreed principles of law. It is not easy to change old mental habits, but this is what must be attempted.

    There are those who say that the adoption of this or that ideology (意识形态)would prevent war. I believe this to be a complete error. All ideologies are based upon beliefs without proof which are, at best, doubtful, and at worst, totally false. Those people who believe them are willing to go to war in support of them.

    The movement of world opinion during the past two years has changed very largely such as we can welcome. It has become a common belief that nuclear war must be avoided. Of course, very difficult problems remain in the international world, but the spirit in which they are being approached is a better one than it was some years ago. It has begun to be thought, even by the powerful men who decide whether we shall live or die, that agreements should be reached even if both sides do not find these agreements wholly satisfactory. It has begun to be understood that the important conflict (冲突) nowadays is not between East and West, but between Man and the H?bomb.

    From the first paragraph we can know that ____.

    A. we may face greater threat from weapons 

    B. bacteriological or chemical weapons are less dangerous than nuclear weapons

    C. man’s idea of victory has changed

    D. dangerous weapons are forbidden in modern society

    According to the author,______.

    A. it is impossible to live without war

    B. the difference between East and West will lead to war

    C. war must be stopped if man wants to survive

    D. war will be stopped by modern skill

    The author believes that the only way to stop war is to____.

    A. stop nuclear weapons

    B. settle international issues through agreements

    C. destroy bacteriological and chemical weapons

    D. let the stronger side take over the world

    The last paragraph suggests that______.

    A. nuclear war will definitely not take place

    B. real agreements have been now reached

    C. world opinion is still divided on nuclear war

    D. man is beginning to realize that nuclear war is his greatest enemy

    Which of the following words can best describe the author’s feeling in writing this passage?

    A. Disappointed.   B. Doubtful.   C. Worried.   D. Hopeful.

    Barack Obama

    In the past hundred years, the U.S. presidency has turned more and more to the left – not in policy, but in handedness. Barrack Obama is the latest to join a long list of left – handed presidents from the 20th century: James Garfield, Herbert Hoover, Henry Truman, Gerald Ford, Ronald Reagan, George H.W. Bush and Bill Clinton were all southpaws.

    What makes lefties so electable? Some experts think left-handed people have a greater aptitude for language skills, which may help them craft the rhetoric necessary for political office. And as for the bout of recent left-handed presidents, some think it’s because teachers only recently stopped working to convert lefties to rightist at an early age.

    Bill Gates

    Claiming the nation’s richest man among their number is a source of considerable pride for America’s society of southpaws. In fact, the Microsoft titan and philanthropist(巨头兼慈善家) is one of a surprising number of U.S. business moguls to be left-handed, including Henry Ford, John D. Rockefeller and former IBM head Lou Gerstner. But the club seems to be a guys-only fraternity — research suggests that while left-handed men tend to earn more than their right-handed colleagues, there is no similar advantage for women. A study by the National Bureau of Economic Research floated the idea that left-handed men favor "divergent" thinking, a form of creativity in which the brain moves "from conventional knowledge into unexplored association." Maybe that’s what it takes to develop a net worth estimated at $ 57 billion.

    Oprah Winfrey

    The talk-show queen doesn’t need much more to set her apart from the rest — what with her estimated $ 2.7 billion fortune and a magic ability to sell books just by glancing at them — but she also has the distinction of being a member of the left-handed club. Since men are more likely to be left-handed than women, that makes Oprah doubly impressive. She’s in good company: Other show-business ladies of the left – handed  persuasion include Whoopi Goldberg, Julia Roberts and Angelina Jolie

    Marie Curie

    Not only was atomic scientist Marie Curie left-handed, but she was the matriarch of a whole family of accomplished, southpaw scientists. Curie, who discovered the principles of radioactivity and won two Nobel Prizes, was married to fellow lefty Pierre Curie, who was instrumental in helping Marie’s atomic research and shared one of her Nobel awards. Historians believe their daughter, Irene, was also left-handed. Irene went on to win a Nobel Prize of her own with her husband — who, you guessed it, was also left-handed.

    59．The underlined word “southpaws” in the last sentence of Paragraph 1 means_______.

    A．people coming from the south B．powerful presidents

    C．people who use their left hand D．forceful speakers

    60．What makes it so easy for lefties to be elected as presidents according to the passage?

    A．Their great gift for foreign language.

    B．Their great language skills to make speeches.

    C．The need of left – hinders in the political office.

    D．Teachers stopping to force them to use their right hand.

    61．It can be implied that Bill Gates, Henry Ford, John D. Rockefeller and Lou Gerstne_______.

    A．have creative thinking              B．have formed a special club.

    C．earn more money than their wives   D．are wealthy philanthropists

    62．The underlined sentence in Paragraph 4 “She is in good company” means “_______”.

    A．she works in a very good company   B．she has many good friends

    C．she has got on well with others        D．she is among many female lefties
