AIDS threatens not only lives but also in poor countries economic
development. By striking mainly at adults 20 to 49 years old, AIDS robs these
societies 41 some of their most productive citizens. Ignorance and fear of
disease the can disrupt families and communities and may even 42 political
relations between nations.
Because AIDS is a worldwide epidemic (传染病 , 流行病 ), nothing 43
than a worldwide effort can control and perhaps some day wipe the disease.
Governments must cooperate by fully informing their citizens about the epidemic
and, most important, by telling people 44 actions they can take to prevent
infection (感染 ). Public health agencies must also insure that blood transfusions (输
血 ) and 45 are safe. Those already infected should receive immediate
attention so they do not spread the virus to others.
For, the U.S. government has committed more than two billion dollars to
fight 46 AIDS in 1989-including more than 600million dollars for research.
The screening of blood 47 has already ensured the safety of blood supplies in
the U.S., and American military personnel are required to take regular blood
tests. Public health groups have carried out AIDS education programs aimed
particularly at homosexuals, drug addicts, and others whose behavior makes them
highly susceptible (易受影响的 ) to the virus. U.S. government agencies are
also 48 public health authorities throughout the developing world in their
efforts to combat the spread of the AIDS virus and to treat those afflicted with the
disease. 49 the rapid spread of the disease and the number of people now
infected, the battle against AIDS will be difficult to win. But it's a battle the world
cannot 50 to lose.
41. A. from B. for C. of D. off
42. A. promote B. destroy C. strengthen D. strain
43. A. less B. more C. rather D. better
44. A. how B. what C. whether D. that
45. A. indications B. introductions C. infections D . injections
46. A. for B . over C . against D . through
47. A. devotions B . donations C . delegations D . dedications
48. A. assorting B. resisting C. insisting D . assisting
49. A. Despite B. Provided C. Suppose D . Given
50. A. face B . confront C . afford D. meet
IV. Reading Comprehension (2’ x 10)
Directions: There are several passages followed by ten
questions or unfinished statement, each with four
suggested answers marked A, B, C and D. Choose the
one that you think is the best answer. Mark your answers
on your Answer Sheet.
Passage A
The death of reading has been frequently, if not prematurely, reported. We are
told that we live in an audio-visual age with radio, television, film, or other forms
for ear and eye replacing the printed page. The picture is said to be faster to present,
more adaptable to the message, and easier to comprehend.
How can anyone be expected to resist the tide, the torrent of competing images?
Can we preserve the printed page and the art and skills of reading? Untold teachers,
writers, and others have struggled to show the rewards of reading, to demonstrate
the practical values, and to encourage reading for personal discovery and growth.
The question is whether the dedicated have had more influence than the
image-flashers. Fortunately there are some hopeful signs.
We can note the publication of more books, magazines, and papers than in any
previous time in our history. Libraries report far greater use than ever before.
Schools continue to show large numbers at all ages (except the young, due to a
4
changing birthrate) seeking to attend. Even the visual media acknowledge their
great dependence on the production of the printed word. Reading is not dead, dying,
or seriously ill. It remains as the major avenue to individual learning and
satisfaction.
51. The author would probably continue with the idea that __________.
A. reading should be the most important way of learning
B. reading should replace the visual media
C. visual media are different ways, each of equal value
D. there are different ways, each of equal value
52. There are less young people seeking to attend schools than before because
_________.
A. they find radio, television and film more attractive
B. there is a decrease in that age group
C. they cannot resist the torrent of competing images
D. they prefer to go and read in libraries
53. The writer strengthens his argument in the last paragraph by __________.
A. showing the value of reading
B. giving credit for more use of visual media
C. indicating the lower elementary school enrollment
D. pointing out the change
Passage B
In the Arctic Circle, it is not that Eskimos lack ability or industry, but the
surroundings restrict constructive effort to the barest necessities of existence. This
effectually retards progress to higher development.
Agriculture is impossible all along the thousands of miles of the north shore.
The only wood is such as drifts in. Other than this driftwood, the only available
building materials are snow, ice, stone, and bones of animals. All of these have been
used for habitations and storage places, differing in various tribes according to the
requirements and skill of the workers.
The lack of necessary timbers to build walls and span wide spaces is probably
one reason why there tribes construct their houses at least partly beneath the surface
of the ground. This device also makes the houses more impervious to the cold.
Most of us are inclined to think that the Eskimo lives always in an igloo or
snow house. This is not entirely true. After the long cold winter, the family is very
likely to move, when the weather permits, into a tent of sealskin. The actual
construction of such a tent is similar to that used by other, more southerly tribes and
will be described later.
The snow house, however, is an interesting and unique habitation. Our summer
campers will not build with snow, but the delicate art is worth recording and some
of our winter camps in the mountains might try to make snow houses.
54. Which of the following about the construction of houses is true?
A. Building materials differ from tribe to tribe.
B. Building materials are the same for all the houses.
C. Building materials are selected according to weather.
D. Building materials are decided by skilled workers.
55. Why do Eskimos build their houses partly under the ground?
A. They like to live under the ground.
B. They are short of essential materials for walls and roofs.
C. They want their houses less affected by the cold.
D. Both B and C.
56. What does the author think of snow houses?
A. Interesting. B. Artistic. C. Unique. D. All of the above.

Passage C
Throughout history man has changed his physical environment in order to
improve his way of life,
With the tools of technology he has altered many physical features of the earth.
He has transformed woodlands into farmland, and made lakes and reservoirs out of
rivers for irrigation purposes or hydroelectric power. Man had also modified the
face of the earth by draining marches and cutting through mountains to build roads
and railways.
However, man’s changes to the physical environment have not always had
beneficial results. Today, pollution of the air and water is an increasing danger to the
health of the planet. Each day thousand of tons of gases come out of the exhausts of
motor vehicles; smoke from factories pollutes the air of industrialized areas and the
surrounding areas of countryside. The air in cities is becoming increasingly
unhealthy.
The pollution of water is equally harmful. In the sea, pollution from oil is
increasing and is killing enormous numbers of algae, fish and birds. The whole
ecological balance of the sea is being changed. The same problem exists in rivers.
Industrial wastes have already made many rivers lifeless.
Conservationists believe that it is now necessary for man to limit the growth of
technology in order to survive on earth.
57. Man has changed his physical environment with a view to _________.
A. altering the physical features of the earth
B. modifying the face of the planet
C. improving his surroundings

_________.
A. thousands of tones of gases coming out of the exhausts of motor vehicles
B. the changes of the environment that technology has brought to man
C. the increasing amount of oil that has been produced
D. industrial wastes discharged into river
59. The ecological balance of the sea is lost when __________.
A. people consume more fish than they used to
B. the ecological balance of the river is lost
C. large numbers of algae, fish and birds are killed
D. the production of marine petroleum is increased
60. The purpose of the writer is __________.
A. to reduce modern technology
B. to improve man’s way of life
C. to warn people not to change the natural environment
D. to call attention to the protection of the natural environment
