III.阅读理解(40分)
Passage A
Co-operation means working together for the benefit of all.
Without co-operation modern society could not exist. Co-operation has at its
best among the farmers in the dry areas of certain parts of Australia and
Africa. The fields have been irrigated in these areas. Crops cannot be grown
without water. For this purpose, canals and reservoirs(水库) have been built. The canals have been cut through
the fields of not only one farmer. Those who live higher up the valley than the
others have permitted canals to be built through their land in order to carry
water to the fields of farmers lower down. When there is a long period without
rain, all share the water. Instead of taking all the water for themselves, the
farmers in the higher land leave enough water for their neighbours down the
valley. Farming in the dry areas has been made possible by such co-operation.
By co-operation farmers have learned to make even the desert produce crops.
61. Co-operation means ___.
A. working for others
B. working for oneself
C. working together for the interests of all
D. working together for the benefit of the whole world
62. A reservoir is used ___.
A. to keep the fields wet
B. to store water
C. to join canals
D. to prevent farmers from getting water
63. In dry weather the farmers who live higher up the valley ___.
A. share the water with their neighbours
B. keep all the water for themselves
C. build canals across the fields of other farmers
D. work hard to store water
64. Crops can be produced in desert only because ___.
A. there is a lot of rain
B. there is one reservoir
C. the people work together for the benefit of all
D. many wells have been found
65. Farmers have dug the canals through ___.
A. the fields of many farmers
B. the fields of only one farmer
C. the whole desert
D. many valleys
Passage B
If you ask people to name the one person who had the greatest effect on the
English language, you will get answers like "Shakespeare,"
"Samuel Johnson," and "Webster," but none of these men had
any effect at all compared to a man who didn't even speak English-William the
Conqueror.
Before 1066, in the land we now call Great Britain lived peoples belonging to
two major language groups. In the west central region lived the Welsh, who spoke
a Celtic language, and in the north lived the Scots, whose language, though not
the same as Welsh, was also Celtic. In the rest of the country lived the
Saxons, actually a mixture of Anglos, Saxons, and other Germanic and Nordic
peoples, who spoke what we now call Anglo-Saxon (or Old English), a Germanic
language. If this state of affairs had lasted, English today would be close to
German.
But this state of affairs did not last. In l066 the Normans led by William
defeated the Saxons and began their rule over England. For about a century,
French became the official language of Eng-land while Old English became the
language of peasants. As a result, English words of Politics and the law come
from French rather than German. In some cases, modern English even shows a
distinction (区别) between upper-class French and
lower-class Anglo-Saxon in its words. We even have different words for some
foods, meat in particular, depending on whether it is still out in the fields
or at home ready to be cooked, which shows the fact that the Saxon peasants
were doing the farming, while the upper-class Normans were doing most of the
eating.
When Americans visit Europe for the first time, they usually find Germany more
"foreign" than France because the German they see on signs and
advertisements seems much more different from English than French does. Few
realize that the English language is actually Germanic in its beginning and
that the French influences are all the result of one man's ambition.
66. The two major
languages spoken in what is now called Great Britain before l066
were
A. Welsh and
Scottish
B. Nordic and Germanic
C. Celtic and Old
English.
D. Anglo-Saxon and Germanic
67. Which of the following groups of words are, by inference, rooted in French?
A. president, lawyer, beef
B. president, bread, water
C. bread, field, sheep
D. folk, field, cow
68.Why does France appear less foreign than Germany to Americans on their first
visit to Europe?
A. Most advertisements in France appear in English.
B. They know little of the history of the English language.
C. Many French words are similar to English ones.
D. They know French better than German.
69. What is the subject discussed in the text?
A. The history of Great Britain.
B. The similarity between English and French.
C. The rule of England by William the Conqueror.
D. The French influences on the English language
Passage C
During the twentieth century there has been a great change in the lives of
woman. A woman marrying at the end of the nineteenth century probably has been
in her middle twenties, and would be likely to have seven or eight children, of
whom four or five lived till they were five years old. By the time the youngest
was fifteen, the mother would have been in her early fifties and would expect
to live a further twenty years, during which chance and health made it unusual
for her to get paid work. Today women marry younger and have fewer children.
Usually a woman's youngest child will be fifteen when she is forty-five and can
be expected to live another thirty-five year and is likely to take paid work
until sixty.
This is an important change in women's economic position. Even a few years ago
most girls left school and took a full-time job. However, when they married,
they usually left work at once and never returned to it. Today the
school-learning age is sixteen; many girls stay at school after that age, and
though women marry younger, more married women stay at work at least until
shortly before their first child is born. Very many more afterwards return to
full or part-time work. Such changes have led to a new relationship in
marriage, with the husband accepting a greater share of the duties and
satisfactions of family life.
70. We are told that in a family about 1900 ___.
A. few children died before they were five
B. seven or eight children lived to be more than five
C. the youngest child would be fifteen
D. four or five children died when they were five
71. One reason why the woman of today may take a job is that she ___.
A. is younger when her children are old enough to look after
themselves
B. does not like children herself
C. needn't worry about food for her children
D. can be free from family duties when she reaches sixty
72. Many girls are now likely to ___.
A. give up their jobs for good after they are married
B. leave school as soon as they can
C. marry so that they can get a job
D. continue working until they are going to have a baby.
73. According to the passage, it is now quite usual for women to ___.
A. stay at home after leaving school
B. marry men younger than themselves
C. start working later in life
D. marry while still at school
74. Now a husband probably ___.
A. plays a greater part in looking after the children
B. helps his wife by doing most of the housework
C. feels dissatisfied with his part in the family
D. takes a part-time job so that he can help in the home

Passage E
At one time, computers were expected largely to remove the need for paper
copies of documents (文件) because they could be stored
electronically. But for all the texts that are written, stored and sent
electronically, a lot of them are still ending up on paper.
It is difficult to measure the quantity of paper used as a result of use of
Internet-connected computers , although just about anyone who works in an
office can tell you that when e-mail is introduced, the printers start working
overtime. "I feel in my bones this revolution is causing more trees to be
cut down," says Ted Smith of the Earth Village Organisation.
Perhaps the best sign of how computer and Internet use pushes up demand for
paper comes from the high-tech industry itself, which sees printing as one of
its most promising new markets. Several Internet companies have been set up to
help small businesses print quality documents from a computer. Earlier this
week Hewlett-Packard Co. announced a plan to develop new technologies that will
enable people to print even more so they can get a hard copy of a business
document, a medical record or just a one-line e-mail, even if they are nowhere
near a computer. As the company sees it,the more use of the Internet the
greater demand for printers.
Does all this mean environmental concerns (环境问题) have
been forgotten? Some activists suggest people have been led to believe that a
lot of dangers to the environment have gone away. " I guess people believe
that the problem is taken care of, because of recycling (回收利用) ?" said Kelly Quirke, director of the Rainforest
Action Network in San Francisco. Yet Quirke is hopeful that high-tech may also
prove helpful. He says printers that print on both sides are growing in
popularity.The action group has also found acceptable paper made from materials
other than wood, such as agricultural waste.
77. The growing
demand for paper in recent years is largely due to ________.
A. the rapid development of small businesses
B. the opening up of new markets
C. the printing of high quality copies
D. the increased use of the Internet
78.
Environmentalists believe one possible way of dealing with the paper situation
is ________.
A. to encourage printing more quality documents
B. to develop new printers using recycled paper
C. to find new materials for making paper
D. to plant more fast-growing trees
79.
Hewlett-Packard Co. has decided to develop new technologies because _______.
A. people are concerned about the environment
B. printers in many offices are working overtime
C. small companies need more hard copies
D. they see a growing market for printers
80. What would be
the best title for the text?
A. Computers and Printers
B. E-mail and the Business World
C. Internet Revolution and Environment
D. Modern Technology and New Markets
