1.The air pollution was so bad in Harbin,in C hina,on October 21,2013 that the city had to close roads and schools,and cancel hundreds of flights from its airport.
News reports said the smog (a mixture of smoke and fog) was so thick that people couldn't see more than 10 or 20 metres in front of them.
It is also said that people could not even see the person standing next to them.The city's website said:"You can't see your own fingers in front of you."
The local people said there was a"burning"smell in the air.Many people covered their noses and mouths with scarves or masks.
The pollution was caused on several factors including:farmers burning off old corn s talks and crop stubble; coal-fired heating systems; and low winds that allowed the smoke to remain over the city.
The smog had been building up for several days.It became worse when the city turned on the public heating system,which uses coal to heat millions of homes and offices in the city.
Harbin has a population of more than 10 million people.It lies in northeastern China,where cold winter weather can last up to six months.The main fuel there is coal,because it is cheaper than other types of fuel.
Air pollution from burning coal can cause health problems like heart disease.During the smog crisis*in Harbin,the number of people taken t o the hospital with breathing problems was 30% higher than usual.
The city government is trying to reduce its use of coal by adding more insulation and better roofs and windows to buildings to reduce heating needs.It has also used cleaner fuel for cars and factories.

11.When my son,Justin,was four,he found a caterpillar (毛蟲) and put it in a jar.Each day he fed it with fresh grass and leaves.In a few weeks we discovered it   (36)B  in a cocoon (繭).

9.The health-care economy is filled with unusual and even unique economic relationships.One of the least understood involves the peculiar roles of producer or"provider"and purchaser or"consumer"in the typical doctor-patient relationship.In most sectors of the economy,it is the seller who attempts to attract a potential buyer with various appealing factors of price,quality,and use,and it is the buyer who makes the decision.Such condition,however,is not common in most of the health-care industry.
In the health-care industry,the doctor-patient relationship is the mirror image of the ordinary relationship between producer and consumer.Once an individual has chosen to see a physician-and even then there may be no real choice-it is the physician who usually makes all significant purchasing decisions:whether the patient should return"next Wednesday",whether X-rays are needed,whether drugs should be prescribed,etc.It is rare that a patient will challenge such professional decisions or raise in advance questions about price,especially when the disease is regarded as serious.
This is particularly significant in relation to hospital care.The physician must certify the need for hospitalization,determine what procedures will be performed,and announce when the patient may be discharged.The patient may be consulted about some of the decisions,but in general it is the doctor's judgments that are fi nal.Little wonder then that in the eye of the hospital it is the physician who is the real"consumer".As a consequence,the med ical staff represents the"power center"in hospital policy and decision-making,not the administration.
Although usually there are in this situation four identifiable participants-the physician,the hospital,the patient,and the payer (generally an insurance carrier or government)-the physician makes the essential decisions for all of them.The hospital becomes an extension of the physician; the payer generally meets most of the bills generated by the physician/hospital,and for the most part the patient plays a passive role.We estimate that about 75-80 percent of health-care choices are determined by physicians,not patients.For this reason,the economy directed at patients or the general is relatively ineffective.
 
28.The author's prim ary purpose in writing this passage is toD.
A.urge hospitals to reclaim their decision-making authority
B.inform potential patients of their health-care rights
C.criticize doctors for exercising too much control over patients
D.a(chǎn)nalyze some important economic factors in health-care
29.It can be inferred that doctors are able to determine hospital policies becauseB.
A.most of patient's bills are paid by his health insurance
B.it is doctors who generate income for the hospital
C.some patients might refuse to take their physician's advice
D.a(chǎn) doctor is ultimately responsible for a patient's health
30.According to the author,when a doctor tells a patient to"return next Wednesday",the doctor is in factC.
A.a(chǎn)dvising the patient to seek a second opinion
B.warning the patient that a hospital stay might be necessary
C.instructing the patient to buy more medical services
D.a(chǎn)dmitting that the first visit was ineffective
31.The author is most probably leading up toA.
A.a(chǎn) proposal to control medical costs
B.a(chǎn) study of lawsuits against doctors for malpractice
C.a(chǎn)n analysis of the cause of inflation (通貨膨脹) in the US
D.a(chǎn) discussion of a new medical treatment.

6.Everyone wants to keep healthy.Is there anything more important than health?I don't think so."Health is the greatest wealth,"wise people say,"You can't be good at your studies or work well when you are ill."
If you have a headache,toothache,backache,earache or bad pain in the stomach,if you have a bad cough,if you run a high temperature and have a bad cold,or if you suffer from high or low blood pressure,I think you should go to see a doctor.
The doctor will test your blood pressure,examine your throat,feel your pulse,take your temperature,sound your heart and lungs,test your eyes,check your teeth or have your chest X-rayed.After that he will advise some treatment or some medicine.The only thing you have to do is to follow his advice.
Speaking of doctor's advice,I can't help telling you a funny story.
An old gentleman came to see the doctor.The man was very ill.He told the doctor about his weakness,memory loss and serious problems with his heart and lungs.The doctor examined him and said there was no medicine for his disease.
He then told his patient to go to a quiet place for a month and have a good rest.He also advised him to eat some meat,drink two glasses of red wine every day and take long walks.In other words,the doctor advised him to follow the rule--Eat at pleasure,drink with measure and enjoy life as it is.The doctor also said that if the man wanted to be well again,he shouldn't smoke more than one cigarette a day.
A month later the gentleman came back into the doctor's office.He looked cheerful and happy.He thanked the doctor and said that  he had never felt a healthier man..
"But you know,doctor,"he said,"it's not easy to begin smoking at my age."
81.The writer thinks thatD.
A.nothing is more important than money     
B.work is as important as studies
C.medicine is more important than pleasure  
D.health is more important than wealth
82.The doctor usually tells his patient what to doB.
A.without examining the patient
B.a(chǎn)fter he has examined the patient
C.if the patient doesn't take medicine
D.unless the patient feels pain
83.The underlined sentence in the last but one paragraph means thatA.
A.he was feeling better than ever          
B.he wasn't a healthy man
C.he was feeling worse than before        
D.he would be well again
84.From the last sentence of the passage,we learn the gentleman manC before the doctor told him not to smoke more than one cigarette a day.
A.was a heavy smoker                  
B.didn't smoke too much
C.didn't smoke at all                   
D.began to learn to smoke
85.Which of the following is NOT true?D

5.Since ninety-eight percent of Hong Kong people are Chinese,half of them from Mainland China who know little English,there seems to be no valid reason why Chinese should not be one of the official languages of Hong Kong.
Generally,none-English speaking Chinese make out very well.It is mostly the courts that they experienced any great difficulty-Hong Kong's law and court proceedings are in English-because,apparently,not sufficient attention is given to translating laws and procedures into Chinese.
One other difficulty lies in the field of official communication-from Government offices.It seems no more than reasonable that such communications addressed to Chinese people should be in both Chinese and English.
The Chinese Language Committee has,in its four reports to Government,proposed that the Chinese language should have equal status with the English language in meetings of the Legislative Council,the Urban Council and Government Boards and Committees; in oral and written communications between Government and the public; in court-proceedings and the language of the law; and in the Hong Kong School Certificate of Education Examinations-all that by 1974 or 1975.
The key-word in the recommendation is status,as Judge T.L.Yang,Chairman of the Legal Sub-committee of the government-appointed Chinese Language Committee,pointed out.He is not happy with the term Fat Ting U Men which the Committee adopted to indicate the official status of the Chinese language.His Honor preferred Kun Fong U Men,meaning a language used by the government.
In other words,such official language,whether Chinese or English,need not necessarily be used in every instance.Consequently,situations may occur in which only Chinese is used by the government and,again,other communication situations in which only English is used.As one Chinese newspaper editorial pointed out,equal status does not necessarily mean equal use-whether in law or any other official communication.
The result of the Chinese Language Committee's four Reports seems to be that Chinese and English are now used in the Urban Council and the Legislative Council meetings and are likely to be used shortly in other circumstances prospected by that Committee.Let it be noted,however,that in Hong Kong,as everywhere else,new ideas take hold very slowly-unless pressure is exerted from some quarter or another.
For instance,after the demonstrations by post-secondary students in favor of Chinese as an official language,Government communicated with the public in both Chinese and English.However,when such communication appeared in writing,the Chinese translation was often so inadequate that the receivers,if they were able,read the English to understand the meaning of the Chinese.

74.According to the writer,Chinese should be made an official language becauseC.
A.most Hong Kong citizens have an adequate command of Chinese
B.some Hong Kong citizens find considerable difficulty in legal language
C.the population of Hong Kong is predominantly Chinese
D.the national pride of the Hong Kong Chinese urges them to demand it.
75.The main idea of the sixth paragraph is thatD.
A.equal status of English and Chinese means equal use
B.only Chinese should be used in official communication
C.both English and Chinese should be employed in all official communication
D.both English and Chinese or either language should be used as the situation demands
76.The phrase or word nearest in meaning to take hold in the seventh paragraph isD.
A.fasten upon the mind      
B.grasp
C.a(chǎn)re rejected                            
D.a(chǎn)re accepted
77.The writer,in his conclusion,implies thatC.
A.the government will be forced to accept Chinese as an official language
B.good translators are definitely inadequate in Hong Kong
C.many difficulties will arise from translating English into Chinese
D.a(chǎn) person has to be bilingual (雙語的) before he understands translations in Chinese.

6.One thinks of princes and presidents as some of the most powerful people in the world; however,governments,elected or otherwise,sometimes have had to struggle with the financial powerhouses called tycoons.The word tycoon is relatively new to the English language.It is Chinese in origin but was given as a title to some Japanese generals.The term was brought to the United States,in the late nineteenth century,where it eventually was used to refer to magnates who acquired immense fortunes from sugar and cattle,coal and oil,rubber and steel,and railroads.Some people called these tycoons"capitals of industry"and praised them for their contributions to U.S.wealth and international reputation.Others criticized them as cruel"robber barons",who would stop at nothing in pursuit of personal wealth.
The early tycoons built successful businesses,often taking over smaller companies to eliminate competition.A single company that came to control an entire market was called a monopoly.Monopolies made a few families very wealthy,but they also placed a heavy financial burden on consumers and the economy at large.
As the country expanded and railroads linked the East Coast to the West Coast,local monopolies turned into national corporations called trusts.A trust is a group of companies that join together under the control of a board of trustees.Railroad trusts are an excellent example.Railroads were privately owned and operated and often monopolized various routes,setting rates as high as they desired.The financial burden this placed on passengers and businesses increased when railroads formed trusts.Farmers,for example,had no choice but to pay,as railroads were the only means they could use to get their grain to buyers.Exorbitant (過高的) goods rates put some farmers out of business.
There were even accusations that the trusts controlled government itself by buying votes and manipulating elected officials.In 1890Congress passed the Sherman Antitrust.Act,legislation aimed at breaking the power of such trusts.The Sherman Antitrust Act focused on two main issues.First of all,it made illegal any effort to interfere with the normal conduct of interstate trade.It also made it illegal to monopolize any part of business that operates across state lines.
Over the next 60years or so,Congress passed other antitrust laws in an effort to encourage competition and restrict the power of larger corporations.

25.The Sherman Antitrust ActB.
A.a(chǎn)ffected only the companies doing business within state lines
B.sought to eliminate monopolies in favor of competition in the market-place
C.promoted trade with a large number of nations
D.provides a financial advantage to the buyer
26.One might infer from this passage that lower pricesA.
A.a(chǎn)re more likely to exist in a competitive market economy
B.usually can be found only in an economy based on monopolies
C.matter only to people who are poor and living below the poverty level
D.a(chǎn)re regulated by the government
27.It seems likely that many AmericansD.
A.believed that the trusts had little influence over government
B.expected the wealthy magnates to share money with the poor
C.did little to build up American business
D.were worried that trusts might manipulate the government.
