A
Let us say there
is something you don’t know how to do. In the past if you were determined to
learn, you might have called friends or relatives, taken a night class or
walked down to the local library for a research term. But now a host of
websites are springing up to provide free practical advice on these subjects
and actually anything else you can think of. In one sense, these“ how ? to”
sites represent a part of the growing world of online learning. These FAQs(Frequent Answers and
Questions), many of which
still circulate(go round
continuously), took a special
subject and explained it to complete novices.
But, “how - to” sites take the FAQ idea in a somewhat different direction by
addressing subjects that aren't necessarily associated with discussion forums(论坛).These sites take the style
of a written tutorial and a tone of friendly advice. Possibly the biggest and
best known of these sites is learn 2.com(www. learn2. com)It offers nearly 1, 000 free
tutorials and adds new ones frequently for a job interview. At ehow. com(www. ehow.)you can learn how to train
for your first marathon, how to buy a vacation home, or how to make a movie in
eight steps.
56.The purpose of
the passage is to________.
A. introduce new
websites to netizens(网民)
B. say how to
learn new courses by Internet
C. bring new
means to learn something new
D. help you to
solve any difficulty you meet with

word“ novices” probably means________.
A. people with
rich experience
B. people without
experience
C. beginners of “
how - to” sites
D. hosts of “how
- to” sites
58.From the passage
we may guess that________.
A. a deaf person
can teach himself at home by visiting “how-to” sites
B. “how - to”
sites are specially designed for the disabled
C. you can just
click your mouse at home to question anything

B
Dr. Severino
Antinori, who is the head of a hospital in Rome, has been referred to in an
Arab newspaper as claiming that one of his patients is eight weeks pregnant(怀孕)with a cloned baby.
Antinori refused
to comment on the reports, but in March 2001 he said he hoped to produce a
cloned embryo(卵)for implantation
within two years. So far seven different kinds of mammals have already
successfully cloned, including sheep, cats and most recently rabbits.
Doctors showed
their doubt and were strongly opposed although they admit that human cloning
would finally come true unless there was a world wide ban on the practice.
Professor Rudolf
Jaenisch of the Whitehead Institute for Biomedical Research at the
Massachusetts Institute of Technology: “I find it astonishing that people do
this where the result can be foretold that it will not be a normal baby. It is
using humans as guinea pigs. It makes people feel sick. ”But Ronald Green,
director of the Ethics institute at Darmouth College in the US, said it is unlikely that an eight - week - old pregnancy
would lead to a birth.
So far all cloned
animals have suffered from some different serious disorders, many of them dying
soon after their births .
Doctors are
opposed to human cloning because they are worried about the welfare of the
cloned child if there is one.
“There are no
benefits of cloned human beings, just harm, ”said Dr. Michael Wilks of the
60. What do the underlined words “on the brink of” in the first paragraph mean
most probably?

passage?
A. They are
against it.
B. They support
it.
C. They welcome
it.
D. They pay no
attention to it.
62. Which of the following statements is true according to the passage?
A. Dcotor
Severino Antinori is strongly opposed to cloning human beings.
B. Up to now,
seven kinds of animals have been cloned, including sheep, cats, humans
and rabbits.
C. Professor
Rudolf Jaenisch is carrying on an experiment on cloning an eight- week -old
embryo.
D. Ronald Green
doubts about the future successful birth of the so -called cloned embryo.
63. Which is the best title for the passage?
A. The Success of
Cloning Humans
B. The Anger at
Cloning Humans

Even plant can run a fever, especially
when they’re under attack by insects or diseases. But unlike humans, plants can
have their temperature taken from 3, 000 feet away - straight up. A decade ago,
adopting the infrared(红外线)scanning
technology developed for military purposes and other satellites, physicist
Stephen Paley came up with a quick way to take the temperature of crops to
determine which ones are under stress. The goal was to let farmers precisely
target pesticide(杀虫剂)spraying rather
than rain poison on a whole field, which invariably includes plants that don’t
have pest(害虫)problems.
Even better,
Paley’s Remote Scanning Services Company could detect crop problems before they
became visible to the eye. Mounted on a plane flown at 3, 000 feet at night, an
infrared scanner measured the heat emitted by crops. The data were transformed
into a color-coded map showing where plants were running“fevers”. Farmers could then spot-spray, using 50 to 70 percent less
pesticide than they otherwise would.
The bad news is
that Paley’s company closed down in 1984, after only three years. Farmers resisted
the new technology and long-term backers were hard to find. But with the
renewed concern about pesticides on produce, and refinements in infrared
scanning, Paley hopes to get back into operation. Agriculture experts have no
doubt that technology works. “This technique can be used on 75 percent of
agricultural land in the United States, ” says George Oerther of Texas A &
M. Ray Jackson , who recently retired from the Department of Agriculture,
thinks remote infrared crop scanning could be adopted by the end of the decade.
But only if Paley finds the financial backing which he failed to obtain 10
years ago.
68. Plants will emit an increased amount of heat when
they are________.
A.
sprayed with pesticides
B.
facing an infrared scanner
C.
in poor physical condition
D.
exposed to excessive sun rays
69. In order to apply pesticide spraying precisely, we
can use infrared scanning to____.
A.
estimate the damage to the crops
B.
measure the size of the affected area
C.
draw a color -coded map
D.
locate the problem area
69. Farmers can save a considerable amount of pesticide
by________.
A.
resorting to spot - spraying
B.
consulting infrared scanning experts
C.
transforming poisoned rain
D.
detecting crop problems at an early stage
71. The application of infrared scanning technology to
agriculture met with some difficulties due to ________.,
A.
the lack of official support
B.
its high cost
C.
the lack of financial support
D.
its failure to help increase production
E
There are two types of people in the world. Although they have equal degree of health and wealth and other comforts of life, one becomes happy, the other becomes unhappy This arises from the different ways in which they consider things, persons, events and the resulting effects upon their minds.
People who are to be happy fix their attention on the convenience of things. The pleasant parts of conversation, the well prepared dishes, the goodness of the wine, the fine weather. They enjoy all the cheerful things. Those who are to be unhappy think and speak only of the opposite things. Therefore, they are continually dissatisfied. By their remarks, they sour the pleasure of society, offend (hurt) many people, and make themselves disagreeable everywhere. If this turn of mind was founded in nature, such unhappy persons would be the ones to be pitied. The intention of criticizing and being disliked is perhaps taken up by imitation(仿效)It grows into a habit, unknown to its possessors. The habit may be strong, but it may be cured when those who have it realize its bad effects on their interests and tastes. I hope this little warning may be of service to them, and help them change this habit.
Although in fact it is chiefly an act of the imagination, it has serious results in life since it brings on deep sorrow and bad luck. Those people offend many others; nobody loves them, and no one treats them with more than the most common politeness and respect. This frequently puts them in bad temper and draws them into arguments. If they aim at getting some advantages in social position or fortune, nobody wishes them success. Nor will anyone start a step or speak a word to favor their hopes. If they bring on themselves public objections, no one will defend or excuse them, and many will join to criticize their wrong doings. These should change this bad habit and be pleased with what is pleasing, without worrying needlessly about themselves and others. If they do not, it will be good for others to avoid any contact with them. Otherwise, it can be disagreeable and sometimes very inconvenient, especially when one becomes mixed up in their quarrels.
72. People who are unhappy
A. always consider things differently from others
B. usually are affected by the results of certain things
C. usually misunderstand what others think or say
D. always discover the unpleasant side of certain things
73. The underlined phrase “sour the pleasure of society” most nearly means “ ”
A. have a good taste with social life B. make others unhappy
C. tend to scold others openly D. enjoy the pleasure of life
74. If such unhappy persons insist on keeping the habit, the author suggests that people should
A. prevent any communication with them
B. show no respect and politeness to them
C. persuade them to recognize the bad effects
D. quarrel with them until they realize the mistakes
75. In this passage, the writer mainly
A. describes two types of people B. laughs at the unhappy people
C. suggests ways to help the unhappy D. tells people how to be happy in

69.C 提示:本文是一篇说明文,主要介绍了将原用于军事和卫星的红外线扫描技术运用于农业的前景,人们为此所做出的努力及遇到的困难。依据文章第2段第2行“...an
infrared scanner measured the heat emitted by crops.The data were transformed into a color-coded map
showing where plants were running ‘fevers’”,说明植物在发“高烧”,也就是说,“身体状况”不佳时才会散发热。所以选项C符合题意。
70.D 提示:本题要求判断使用红外线扫描技术的目的。依据文章第2段第4行“...showing
where plants were running ‘fevers’.Farmers could then spot spray,...”说明目的是确定有问题的区域,以使农民有针对性地喷杀虫剂。显然,选项D(确定有问题的地域)为最佳选项。
以选项C正确。
73.B 提示:“sour”是“变酸”的意思;当然可以从短语所在那句话中轻易得出。

书面表达:
With the development of online communication, a new language, the Internet language, is becoming more and more popular in online chat rooms, even in teenagers’ daily life. It consists of some symbols, such as :-) ( a smiling face), and abbreviations such “PLAMM”( a beautiful girl).
Though the Internet language is so popular, the public holds two different kinds of attitudes towards it. Some think it is simple and humorous, and because it is used in a very limited area, it has bad effects. In their opinion, it is a normal phenomenon and a necessary stage in the development of the Chinese language.
