阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项。
A
The intelligence(智力) tests used most often today are based on the work of a Frenchman, Alfred Binet. In 1905, Binet was asked by the French Ministry of Education to develop a way to discover those children in French schools who were too "mentally deficient(不足的 )" to benefit from ordinary schooling and who needed special education. The tests had to be able to tell those who were merely behind inschool from those who were actually mentally deficient.
The items that Binet and his colleague Theophile Simon included on the test were chosen on the basis of their ideas about intelligence. Binet and Simon believed intelligence includes such abilities as understanding the meaning of words, solving problems, and making common - sense judgements. Two other important assumptions(假定) also shaped Binet's and Simon's work: (1) that children with more intelligence will do better in school and (2) that older children have a greater ability than younger children.
Binet's first test was made up of thirty tasks. They were simple things most children learn as a result of their everyday experiences. The tasks were arranged in groups, according to age. Binet decided which tasks were suitable for a given age group by giving them first to a large number of children of different ages. If more than half of the children of a given age passed a test, it was considered suitable for that age group.
56. The main purpose of this passage is to .
A. tell the origin of intelligence tests
B. state the development of intelligence tests
C. explain the basic rules of intelligence tests
D. describe the changes in the content of intelligence tests
57. What was the purpose of the intelligence test designed by Alfred Binet in 1905?
A. To select top students.
B. To put students in a fight order.
C. To know who had received ordinary schooling.
D. To make sure who required particular treatment.
58. Which of the following is tree according to the passage?
A. Intelligence includes word understanding and problem solving.
B. Intelligent children can all work out Binet's thirty tasks.
C. More intelligent children always do better in school.
D. Intelligence is not connected with age.
59. How did Binet decide which tasks to include on his first test?
A. He first gave some easy tasks to many younger children.
B. He first gave some different tasks to many older children.
C. He first worked out thirty tasks for mentally deficient children.
D. He first gave the tasks to many children both younger and older.
B
As supplier of most of the food we eat and of raw materials for many industrial processes, agriculture is clearly an important area of the economy. But the industrial performance of agriculture is even more important than this. For in nations where the productivity(生产力) of farmers is low, most of the working population is needed to raise food and few people are available for production of investment(投资) goods or for other activities required for economic growth. Indeed, one of the factors related most closely to the per capital income(人均收入) of a nation is the number of its population engaged in farming. In the poorest nations of the world more than half of the population lives on farms. This compares sharply with less than 10 per cent in Western Europe and less than 4 per cent in the United States.
In short, the course of economic development in general depends in a very important way on the performance of farmers. This performance of farmers in mm, depends on how agriculture is organized and on the economic environment, or market structure, within which it functions. In the following pages the performance of American agriculture is examined. It is suitable to begin with a conversation of its market structure.
60. This passage is most probably .
A. part of an introduction of a book B. an davertisement
C. part of a lecture D. a news item
61. The underlined word "this" in the first paragraph refers to .
A. the economy as a whole B. the productivity of farmers
C. the production of investment goods D. the supply of food and raw materials
62. The performance of farmers basically has a direct and important effect on .
A. the general development of economy B. the size of the working population
C. the organization of agriculture D. the market structure
63. This passage will most probably be followed by a discussion of .
A. the various functions of American agriculture
B. the structure of American fanning population
C. the market structure of American agriculture
D. the organization of American agriculture
C
For millions of people, the American dream of owning a home seems to be slipping out of reach.
"Maybe young couples can no longer afford to buy a ready- made house as their parents did," says40 - year- old building instructor Pat Hennin. "But they can still have a home. Like their pioneer ancestor(祖先), they can build it themselves -- and at less than half the cost of a ready - made house."
The owner- builders come from every occupational group, although surprisingly few are professional building workers. Many take the plunge with little or no experience. "I learned how to build my house from reading books," says John Brown, who built a six- room home for $ 25,000 in High Falls, New Jersey. "If you have patience and the carpentry (木工) skill to make a bookcase, you can build a house.”
An astonishing 50 percent of these owner- builders hastener every nail, lay every pipe, and wire every switch with their own hands. The rest contract(立合同) for some parts of the task. But even those act as contractors and finish the insides of their homes can save from 30 percent to 45 percent of what a ready- made home would cost.
One survey showed that 60 percent of owner- builders also design their homes. Many others buy: commercial house plans for less than $100, or use plans available from the U.S. Department of Agriculture.
64. What is main subject of the passage?
A. The cost of having a house built
B. The American dream of owning a house.
C. A description of owner- builders in America.
D. A comparison between young couples and their parents.
65. The underlined phrase "take the plunge" in the third paragraph most probably means .
A. decide to pull down a house B. decide to build a house
C. decide to buy a house D. decide to hire a house
66. It can be inferred from the passage that many Americans find it difficult to .
A. find a ready- made house B. have a good job
C. build a house D. buy a house
67. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?
A. Most of the house plans are offered by building instructors.
B. Fifty percent of the American young couples build houses.
C. Most of the owner- builders design their homes.
D. Many house plans are offered free of charge.
D
Looking back on my childhood, I am completely sure that naturalists are born and not made. Although we were all brought up in the same way, my brothers and sisters soon gave up their pressed flowers and insects(昆虫). Unlike them, I had no ear for music and languages. I was not an early reader and I could not do mental arithmetic(心算).
Before World War I we spent our summer holidays in Hungary. ! have only the unclear memory of the house we lived in, of my room and my toys. Nor do I remember clearly the large family of grand parents, aunts, uncles and cousins who gathered next door. But I do have a very clear memory of the dogs, the farm animals, the local birds and, above an the insects.
I am a naturalist, not a scientist. I have a strong love of the natural world, and my strong feeling of interest has led me into varied investigations(调查研究). I love my favorite topics and enjoy burning the midnight oil while reading about other people' s observations and discoveries. Then something happens that brings these observations together in my conscious mind. Suddenly you consider you see the answer to the riddle, because it all seems to fit together. This has resulted in my publishing 300 papers and books, which some might honour with the title of scientific research.
But curiosity, a keen eye, a good memory and enjoyment of the animal and plant world do not make a scientist: one of the outstanding and necessary qualities required is self-discipline(自律力), a quality I lack. A scientist requires not only self- discipline but also training, determination and a goal. A scientist up to a point can be made. A naturalist is born. If you can combine the two, you get the best of both worlds.
68. The first paragraph tells us that the writer
A. was born into a naturalist's family
B. didn't like his brothers and sisters
C. lost his hearing when he was a child
D. was into flowers and insects in his childhood
69. The writer can't remember his relatives clearly because .
A. the family was extremely large
B. he didn't live very long with them
C. he was fully busy observing nature
D. he was too young when he lived with them
70. The writer says that he is a naturalist rather than a scientist probably because he thinks be .
A. comes up with solutions in a most natural way
B. lacks some of the qualities required of a scientist
C. has a great deal of trouble doing mental arithmetic
D. just reads about other people's observations and discoveries
71. According to the writer, a born naturalist should first of all be .
A. full of strong interest B. full of determination
C. self- disciplined D. knowledgeable
E
It is clear that some chemicals can damage the health of animals and humans. However, this is not the only problem that can be caused by the careless use of chemicals, Chemicals can also disturb the ecological(生态的) balance of the environment. If the ecological balance is disturbed, the results can be extremely serious.
The history of DDT illustrates(说明) the problem. DDT, a chemical which kills insects, at first seemed to be a perfect answer to many problems. It would control insects that caused dangerous diseases, as well as insects that caused billions of dollars of damage to crops every year. Governments permitted and even encouraged the use of DDT. Farmers in many countries began to spray(喷洒) it on their crops. The immediate results were good: Damage to crops went down, and profits went up. However, the chemical had effects which the scientists didn't see in advance. First, it also killed insects which were the natural enemies of the harmful insects and which were therefore beneficial to farmers. Second, and perhaps worse, DDT did not kill every harmful insect. A few insects had natural resistance(抵抗力) to the chemical. They survived and reproduced in large numbers. In a few years there were large numbers of insects which were not affected by DDT, and there were fewer insects which could act as natural controls on these new "super - insects." Finally, it became clear that DDT was not solving the insect problem. In fact, it was making the problem worse. It then became necessary to find a second cure for the effects of the first.
72. What is the purpose of the passage?
A. To tell that DDT can not solve the insect problem.
B. To compare the effects of DDT with those of other cures.
C. To argue that the ecological balance can be damaged by chemicals.
D. To show that some chemicals can damage the health of humans and animals.
73. Which of the following is tree?
A. Chemicals cause no health problems for animals and people.
B. The long- term effects of DDT were expected by scientists.
C. At first, the chemical DDT seemed only to have benefits.
D. Chemicals can keep the ecological balance of nature.
74. According to the writer, what is one of the problems with DDT?
A. It also killed insects that helped farmers.
B. It could not kill most of the harmful insects.
C. It caused a increase in animals kept on farms.
D. It made some farmers suffer a disease which couldn't be cured.
75. Which of the following is mentioned in the passage?
A. Harmful insects began to be resistant to DDT.
B. DDT was effective to kill most insects at first.
C. Unharmful insects could survive DDT.
D. The chemical shouldn't be used today.

Dear Yoko,
This might be a good chance to solve bad feelings that
exist between you and your classmate. While sit next to each
other, it will be very difficult not to speak. To start making
progress, to try to help her with any problem she might
have or share something of her. This will make her realize
that you would like to be her friend. By no talking to her, the
problem will continue for she'll still not like you. Remember
that often when people are unkindly to someone else, it is
because they are unsure about how that person feel about
them. So try to be nice and it's hoped that thing will improve.
Your friend,
Dick

阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项。
A
The intelligence(智力) tests used most often today are based on the work of a Frenchman, Alfred Binet. In 1905, Binet was asked by the French Ministry of Education to develop a way to discover those children in French schools who were too "mentally deficient(不足的 )" to benefit from ordinary schooling and who needed special education. The tests had to be able to tell those who were merely behind inschool from those who were actually mentally deficient.
The items that Binet and his colleague Theophile Simon included on the test were chosen on the basis of their ideas about intelligence. Binet and Simon believed intelligence includes such abilities as understanding the meaning of words, solving problems, and making common - sense judgements. Two other important assumptions(假定) also shaped Binet's and Simon's work: (1) that children with more intelligence will do better in school and (2) that older children have a greater ability than younger children.
Binet's first test was made up of thirty tasks. They were simple things most children learn as a result of their everyday experiences. The tasks were arranged in groups, according to age. Binet decided which tasks were suitable for a given age group by giving them first to a large number of children of different ages. If more than half of the children of a given age passed a test, it was considered suitable for that age group.
56. The main purpose of this passage is to .
A. tell the origin of intelligence tests
B. state the development of intelligence tests
C. explain the basic rules of intelligence tests
D. describe the changes in the content of intelligence tests
57. What was the purpose of the intelligence test designed by Alfred Binet in 1905?
A. To select top students.
B. To put students in a fight order.
C. To know who had received ordinary schooling.
D. To make sure who required particular treatment.
58. Which of the following is tree according to the passage?
A. Intelligence includes word understanding and problem solving.
B. Intelligent children can all work out Binet's thirty tasks.
C. More intelligent children always do better in school.
D. Intelligence is not connected with age.
59. How did Binet decide which tasks to include on his first test?
A. He first gave some easy tasks to many younger children.
B. He first gave some different tasks to many older children.
C. He first worked out thirty tasks for mentally deficient children.
D. He first gave the tasks to many children both younger and older.
B
As supplier of most of the food we eat and of raw materials for many industrial processes, agriculture is clearly an important area of the economy. But the industrial performance of agriculture is even more important than this. For in nations where the productivity(生产力) of farmers is low, most of the working population is needed to raise food and few people are available for production of investment(投资) goods or for other activities required for economic growth. Indeed, one of the factors related most closely to the per capital income(人均收入) of a nation is the number of its population engaged in farming. In the poorest nations of the world more than half of the population lives on farms. This compares sharply with less than 10 per cent in Western Europe and less than 4 per cent in the United States.
In short, the course of economic development in general depends in a very important way on the performance of farmers. This performance of farmers in mm, depends on how agriculture is organized and on the economic environment, or market structure, within which it functions. In the following pages the performance of American agriculture is examined. It is suitable to begin with a conversation of its market structure.
60. This passage is most probably .
A. part of an introduction of a book B. an davertisement
C. part of a lecture D. a news item
61. The underlined word "this" in the first paragraph refers to .
A. the economy as a whole B. the productivity of farmers
C. the production of investment goods D. the supply of food and raw materials
62. The performance of farmers basically has a direct and important effect on .
A. the general development of economy B. the size of the working population
C. the organization of agriculture D. the market structure
63. This passage will most probably be followed by a discussion of .
A. the various functions of American agriculture
B. the structure of American fanning population
C. the market structure of American agriculture
D. the organization of American agriculture
C
For millions of people, the American dream of owning a home seems to be slipping out of reach.
"Maybe young couples can no longer afford to buy a ready- made house as their parents did," says40 - year- old building instructor Pat Hennin. "But they can still have a home. Like their pioneer ancestor(祖先), they can build it themselves -- and at less than half the cost of a ready - made house."
The owner- builders come from every occupational group, although surprisingly few are professional building workers. Many take the plunge with little or no experience. "I learned how to build my house from reading books," says John Brown, who built a six- room home for $ 25,000 in High Falls, New Jersey. "If you have patience and the carpentry (木工) skill to make a bookcase, you can build a house.”
An astonishing 50 percent of these owner- builders hastener every nail, lay every pipe, and wire every switch with their own hands. The rest contract(立合同) for some parts of the task. But even those act as contractors and finish the insides of their homes can save from 30 percent to 45 percent of what a ready- made home would cost.
One survey showed that 60 percent of owner- builders also design their homes. Many others buy: commercial house plans for less than $100, or use plans available from the U.S. Department of Agriculture.
64. What is main subject of the passage?
A. The cost of having a house built
B. The American dream of owning a house.
C. A description of owner- builders in America.
D. A comparison between young couples and their parents.
65. The underlined phrase "take the plunge" in the third paragraph most probably means .
A. decide to pull down a house B. decide to build a house
C. decide to buy a house D. decide to hire a house
66. It can be inferred from the passage that many Americans find it difficult to .
A. find a ready- made house B. have a good job
C. build a house D. buy a house
67. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?
A. Most of the house plans are offered by building instructors.
B. Fifty percent of the American young couples build houses.
C. Most of the owner- builders design their homes.
D. Many house plans are offered free of charge.

Looking back on my childhood, I am completely sure that naturalists are born and not made. Although we were all brought up in the same way, my brothers and sisters soon gave up their pressed flowers and insects(昆虫). Unlike them, I had no ear for music and languages. I was not an early reader and I could not do mental arithmetic(心算).
Before World War I we spent our summer holidays in Hungary. ! have only the unclear memory of the house we lived in, of my room and my toys. Nor do I remember clearly the large family of grand parents, aunts, uncles and cousins who gathered next door. But I do have a very clear memory of the dogs, the farm animals, the local birds and, above an the insects.
I am a naturalist, not a scientist. I have a strong love of the natural world, and my strong feeling of interest has led me into varied investigations(调查研究). I love my favorite topics and enjoy burning the midnight oil while reading about other people' s observations and discoveries. Then something happens that brings these observations together in my conscious mind. Suddenly you consider you see the answer to the riddle, because it all seems to fit together. This has resulted in my publishing 300 papers and books, which some might honour with the title of scientific research.
But curiosity, a keen eye, a good memory and enjoyment of the animal and plant world do not make a scientist: one of the outstanding and necessary qualities required is self-discipline(自律力), a quality I lack. A scientist requires not only self- discipline but also training, determination and a goal. A scientist up to a point can be made. A naturalist is born. If you can combine the two, you get the best of both worlds.
68. The first paragraph tells us that the writer
A. was born into a naturalist's family
B. didn't like his brothers and sisters
C. lost his hearing when he was a child
D. was into flowers and insects in his childhood
69. The writer can't remember his relatives clearly because .
A. the family was extremely large
B. he didn't live very long with them
C. he was fully busy observing nature
D. he was too young when he lived with them
70. The writer says that he is a naturalist rather than a scientist probably because he thinks be .
A. comes up with solutions in a most natural way
B. lacks some of the qualities required of a scientist
C. has a great deal of trouble doing mental arithmetic
D. just reads about other people's observations and discoveries
71. According to the writer, a born naturalist should first of all be .
A. full of strong interest B. full of determination
C. self- disciplined D. knowledgeable
E
It is clear that some chemicals can damage the health of animals and humans. However, this is not the only problem that can be caused by the careless use of chemicals, Chemicals can also disturb the ecological(生态的) balance of the environment. If the ecological balance is disturbed, the results can be extremely serious.
The history of DDT illustrates(说明) the problem. DDT, a chemical which kills insects, at first seemed to be a perfect answer to many problems. It would control insects that caused dangerous diseases, as well as insects that caused billions of dollars of damage to crops every year. Governments permitted and even encouraged the use of DDT. Farmers in many countries began to spray(喷洒) it on their crops. The immediate results were good: Damage to crops went down, and profits went up. However, the chemical had effects which the scientists didn't see in advance. First, it also killed insects which were the natural enemies of the harmful insects and which were therefore beneficial to farmers. Second, and perhaps worse, DDT did not kill every harmful insect. A few insects had natural resistance(抵抗力) to the chemical. They survived and reproduced in large numbers. In a few years there were large numbers of insects which were not affected by DDT, and there were fewer insects which could act as natural controls on these new "super - insects." Finally, it became clear that DDT was not solving the insect problem. In fact, it was making the problem worse. It then became necessary to find a second cure for the effects of the first.
72. What is the purpose of the passage?
A. To tell that DDT can not solve the insect problem.
B. To compare the effects of DDT with those of other cures.
C. To argue that the ecological balance can be damaged by chemicals.
D. To show that some chemicals can damage the health of humans and animals.
73. Which of the following is tree?
A. Chemicals cause no health problems for animals and people.
B. The long- term effects of DDT were expected by scientists.
C. At first, the chemical DDT seemed only to have benefits.
D. Chemicals can keep the ecological balance of nature.
74. According to the writer, what is one of the problems with DDT?
A. It also killed insects that helped farmers.
B. It could not kill most of the harmful insects.
C. It caused a increase in animals kept on farms.
D. It made some farmers suffer a disease which couldn't be cured.
75. Which of the following is mentioned in the passage?
A. Harmful insects began to be resistant to DDT.
B. DDT was effective to kill most insects at first.
C. Unharmful insects could survive DDT.
D. The chemical shouldn't be used today.

Dear Yoko,
This might be a good chance to solve bad feelings that
exist between you and your classmate. While sit next to each
other, it will be very difficult not to speak. To start making
progress, to try to help her with any problem she might
have or share something of her. This will make her realize
that you would like to be her friend. By no talking to her, the
problem will continue for she'll still not like you. Remember
that often when people are unkindly to someone else, it is
because they are unsure about how that person feel about
them. So try to be nice and it's hoped that thing will improve.
Your friend,
Dick
