A
Deep inside a mountain near Sweetwater in East Tennessee is a body of water known as the Lost Sea. It is listed by the Guinness Book of World Records as the world's largest underground lake. The Lost Sea is part of the extensive and historic cave system called Craighead Caverns.
The caverns have been known and used since the days of the Cherokee Indian nation. The cave expands into a series of huge rooms from a small opening in the side of the mountain. Approximately one mile from the entrance, is a room called "the Council Room". Many Indian artifacts have been found. Some of the items discovered include pottery, arrowheads, weapons, and jewelry.
For many years, there were persistent rumors of a large underground lake somewhere in a cave, but it was not discovered until 1905. In that year, a thirteen--year--old boy named Ben Sands crawled through a small opening three hundred feet underground. He found himself in a large cave half filled with water.
Today tourists visit the Lost Sea and ride far out onto it in glass- bottomed boats powered by electric motors. More than thirteen acres of water have been mapped out so far and still no end to the lake has been found. Even though teams of divers have tried to explore the Lost Sea, the full extent of it is still unknown.
56. According to the passage, the Lost Sea is unique because it is
A. part of a historical cave system
B. the biggest underground lake in the world
C. listed in the Guinness Book of World Records
D. the largest body of water in Tennessee
57. Who located the Lost Sea in recent times?
A. Tourists. B. Scientists.
C. The Cherokee Indians. D. Ben Sands.
58. According to the passage, how can the caverns be entered?
A. From an opening in a mountainside. B. By diving into the water.
C. By riding far out onto the lake. D. From "The Council Room".
59. It can be inferred from the passage that the Craighead Caverns presently serve as
A. an underground testing site B. an Indian meeting ground
C. a tourist attraction D. a motorboat race course
B
Skateboarders and scientists came together in an exhibition at the Exploratorium in SanFrancisco to demonstrate the educational side of skateboarding.
Physicist Paul Doherty explained that a skateboarding trick called an Ollie is a perfect lesson in physics. In an Ollie, the skateboarder steps on the back of the board. This causes the front end to shoot up in the air. Then the back collides with (与... 相撞) the ground and bounces off, like a ball bouncing, and this causes the board and the skateboarder to go up in the air.
Skateboard tricks involve the physical forces of momentum (动力), inertia (惯性), and friction (摩擦力). For example, when a skateboarder goes up a kind of ramp called a half pike, momentum is What carries him into the air. Also, skateboards are covered in grip tape, and then the force of friction keeps the skateboarder from sliding off.
Parents brought their kids to the Exploratorium to link a fun sport with the need for education. However, one mother said that her son saw right through this. "Mom, they’re going to try to teach us about gravity and I hate learning stuff."
Another young skateboarder saw the value of learning about the science of skateboarding. "It comes in handy because you learn about going down hills and stuff."
The physicist, Paul Doherty, also explained that gravity, the force discovered by Isaac Newton, is evident in any sport that involves motion. For example, when a skateboarder falls down during an Ollie, that is an example of gravity.
60. The article mainly talks about the relationship between
A. Paul Doherty and Tony Manfre B. skateboarding and physics
C. Ollies and sidewalk surfing D. gravity and momentum
61. Falling down during an Ollie is an illustration of
A. gravity B. momentum C. friction D. inertia
62. Parents like the skateboarding exhibition because it's
A. exciting B. dangerous C. dramatic D. educational
63. According to physicist Doherty, gravity plays a role in playing
A. cards B. chess C. soccer D. piano
C
People already working are getting laid off and don’t have jobs, so it’s even harder for new college graduates to find jobs.
Four years ago, the future looked bright for the class of 2003. There were many high-tech (“dot com”) job opportunities, graduates received many job offers, and they were able to get jobs with high salaries and benefits such as insurance and paid vacations. However, “Times have changed; it’s a new market,” according to Cheryl Allmen – Vinnidge of the San Jose State Career Center.
Allmen – Vinnidge says students who do find jobs started preparing two years ago. They worked during summer vacations, they have had several internships, and they majored in fields that are still paying well, such as accounting or nursing.
Even teaching is not a secure profession now. Ryan Stewart wanted to be a teacher, but instead he will probably go back to school in order to become a college teacher. He thinks college teaching could be a good career even in a bad economy.
In conclusion, these days a college degree does not automatically lead to a good job with a high salary. Some students can only hope that the value of their degree will increase in the future.
64．The main idea of this story is that ___________.
A. Ryan Stewart has not been able to find a job
B. a college career center is a crossroads between college and the real world
C. in some fields, salaries have increased in the past year
D. between 1999 and 2003, the job market changed dramatically
65．Which of the following things did not happen in the four years that the class of 2003 was in college?
A. Dot com opportunities decreased
B. The number of teaching jobs increased
C. Salaries in chemical engineering increased
D. The number of jobs with benefits decreased
66．The purpose of a college career center is probably to __________.
A. prepare students to find jobs after they graduate
B. find jobs for students while they are in school
C. help high school students get accepted to college
D. help students do their homework
67．Very soon Ryan Stewart is probably going to __________.
A. get a job as a teacher B. become a religious leader
C. go back to school D. change his major
D
Have you ever had travel problems because your airplane was late? It is a common problem and it is getting worse. Airport delays make people angry and cost the country billions in lost work time.
The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) is the government agency that oversees air travel. They studied the problem of airline delays.
They found eleven major problems and proposed eleven ways to fix them. Some of the problems are caused because different regions of the country do things differently. The regions don’t talk to each other enough. Some of them need new computers.
Also, more planes are flying. A strong economy has more people using airplanes to get around. Airplanes are a form of mass transportation now, like trains and buses were in the past. More planes in the airport cause delays.
The airport in San Francisco is a good example. It is growing fast. Many people go through San Francisco to get to other places around the world.
Ron Wilson of the San Francisco International Airport says, "If you've got 18 flights that all want to take off at 8：00 a. m. and you’re on the 18th plane in line, you're going to be 40 minutes late."
Weather is another main reason for delays. Weather causes about 70 ~ of delays. Fog or freezing rain can cause delays.
The first thing the FAA wants to do is take control away from the regions during heavy traffic times and bad weather. A national center would make decisions on things that affect the whole country. The FAA also wants to put more distance between planes in the sky when the weather is bad. This rule could cause even more delays.
The FAA knows that their solutions will not cure the problems with airport delays. But, they hope to make things better. There are just too many planes, too few traffic controllers, and not enough new technology.
68. Why do airport delays cost billions in lost productivity?
A. people who have to wait for airplanes will quit buying tickets.
B. people who are waiting in airports are losing time at work.
C. when the FAA seizes control of airports, people will lose their jobs.
D. the delays force airport employees to earn overtime pay.
69. Why will the FAA take control away from regional airports?
A. To punish the airports for being late.
B. To prevent weather delays.
C. To make decisions on things that affect the whole country.
D. To make regions talk to each other more.
70. Why do airports in different regions operate differently?
A. They fly planes differently.
B. They speak different languages.
C. They don’t take orders from the FAA.
D. They have set up their own rules over the years.
71. Which of the following is the best title for this passage?
A. Airport Delays on the Rise B. Air Travel Problems
C. Development of Airlines D. FAA's Solutions to Air Travel Problems
E
In the United States, a country of immigrants prejudice (偏见) and discrimination（歧视) continue to be serious problems. There was often tension between each established group of immigrants and each succeeding group. As each group became more economically successful, and more powerful, they prevented newcomers from full participation in the society. Prejudice and discrimination are part of American history; however, this prejudice treatment of different groups is nowhere more unjust than with black Americans.
Blacks had obvious disadvantages. For the most part, they came to the "land of opportunity" as slaves and they were not free to keep their heritage and cultural traditions. Unlike most European immigrants, blacks did not have the protection of a support group; sometimes slave owners separated members of the same family. They could not mix easily with the established society because of their color. It was difficult for them to adapt to the American culture. Even after they became free people, they still experienced discrimination in employment, housing and education.
Until the twentieth century, the majority of the black population lived in the southern part of the United States. Then there was a population shift to the large cities in the North.Prejudice against blacks is often associated with the South. Slavery was more common there and discrimination was usually much easier to see.
In the 1950s and 1960s, blacks fought to gain fair treatment, and they now have legal protection in housing, education, and employment. Because their neighborhoods are separated, many blacks feel that educational opportunities are not enough for their children. Bussing children from one neighborhood to another is one solution to inequality in education. Naturally, all parents want the best possible education for their children.
The situation of blacks is better today than it was in the 1950s, but racial tension still exists. Time will be the real solution to the problem of race.
72. What is the passage mainly about?
A. Education in the United States.
B. Prejudice and discrimination in the US.
C. Prejudice against American blacks.
D. Unemployment in the United States.
73. When a group of immigrants became strong in its economy, they were likely to
A. fight with the natives to gain more land
B. show prejudice and discrimination against newcomers
C. prevent new settlers from being greatly involved in social activities
D. fight among themselves to establish a more important role
74. It can be learned from the passage that
A. now there are more blacks living in the North than in the South
B. blacks are free people now, so they can enjoy equal rights as whites
C. the American government is not paying much attention to the blacks’ education
D. prejudice and discrimination are more severe in the South than in the North.
75. According to the passage, which of the following is NOT true?
A. Blacks in the US were not those who were worst discriminated.
B. Prejudice and discrimination are part of the United States.
C. It was not easy for blacks to get used to the American culture.
D. The problem of prejudice and discrimination in the US will continue.

A
Deep inside a mountain near Sweetwater in East Tennessee is a body of water known as the Lost Sea. It is listed by the Guinness Book of World Records as the world's largest underground lake. The Lost Sea is part of the extensive and historic cave system called Craighead Caverns.
The caverns have been known and used since the days of the Cherokee Indian nation. The cave expands into a series of huge rooms from a small opening in the side of the mountain. Approximately one mile from the entrance, is a room called "the Council Room". Many Indian artifacts have been found. Some of the items discovered include pottery, arrowheads, weapons, and jewelry.
For many years, there were persistent rumors of a large underground lake somewhere in a cave, but it was not discovered until 1905. In that year, a thirteen--year--old boy named Ben Sands crawled through a small opening three hundred feet underground. He found himself in a large cave half filled with water.
Today tourists visit the Lost Sea and ride far out onto it in glass- bottomed boats powered by electric motors. More than thirteen acres of water have been mapped out so far and still no end to the lake has been found. Even though teams of divers have tried to explore the Lost Sea, the full extent of it is still unknown.
56. According to the passage, the Lost Sea is unique because it is
A. part of a historical cave system
B. the biggest underground lake in the world
C. listed in the Guinness Book of World Records
D. the largest body of water in Tennessee
57. Who located the Lost Sea in recent times?

Skateboarders and scientists came together in an exhibition at the Exploratorium in SanFrancisco to demonstrate the educational side of skateboarding.
Physicist Paul Doherty explained that a skateboarding trick called an Ollie is a perfect lesson in physics. In an Ollie, the skateboarder steps on the back of the board. This causes the front end to shoot up in the air. Then the back collides with (与... 相撞) the ground and bounces off, like a ball bouncing, and this causes the board and the skateboarder to go up in the air.
Skateboard tricks involve the physical forces of momentum (动力), inertia (惯性), and friction (摩擦力). For example, when a skateboarder goes up a kind of ramp called a half pike, momentum is What carries him into the air. Also, skateboards are covered in grip tape, and then the force of friction keeps the skateboarder from sliding off.
Parents brought their kids to the Exploratorium to link a fun sport with the need for education. However, one mother said that her son saw right through this. "Mom, they’re going to try to teach us about gravity and I hate learning stuff."
Another young skateboarder saw the value of learning about the science of skateboarding. "It comes in handy because you learn about going down hills and stuff."
The physicist, Paul Doherty, also explained that gravity, the force discovered by Isaac Newton, is evident in any sport that involves motion. For example, when a skateboarder falls down during an Ollie, that is an example of gravity.
60. The article mainly talks about the relationship between
A. Paul Doherty and Tony Manfre B. skateboarding and physics
C. Ollies and sidewalk surfing D. gravity and momentum
61. Falling down during an Ollie is an illustration of
A. gravity B. momentum C. friction D. inertia

People already working are getting laid off and don’t have jobs, so it’s even harder for new college graduates to find jobs.
Four years ago, the future looked bright for the class of 2003. There were many high-tech (“dot com”) job opportunities, graduates received many job offers, and they were able to get jobs with high salaries and benefits such as insurance and paid vacations. However, “Times have changed; it’s a new market,” according to Cheryl Allmen – Vinnidge of the San Jose State Career Center.
Allmen – Vinnidge says students who do find jobs started preparing two years ago. They worked during summer vacations, they have had several internships, and they majored in fields that are still paying well, such as accounting or nursing.
Even teaching is not a secure profession now. Ryan Stewart wanted to be a teacher, but instead he will probably go back to school in order to become a college teacher. He thinks college teaching could be a good career even in a bad economy.
In conclusion, these days a college degree does not automatically lead to a good job with a high salary. Some students can only hope that the value of their degree will increase in the future.
64．The main idea of this story is that ___________.
A. Ryan Stewart has not been able to find a job
B. a college career center is a crossroads between college and the real world
C. in some fields, salaries have increased in the past year
D. between 1999 and 2003, the job market changed dramatically
65．Which of the following things did not happen in the four years that the class of 2003 was in college?
A. Dot com opportunities decreased
B. The number of teaching jobs increased
C. Salaries in chemical engineering increased
D. The number of jobs with benefits decreased
66．The purpose of a college career center is probably to __________.
A. prepare students to find jobs after they graduate
B. find jobs for students while they are in school
C. help high school students get accepted to college
D. help students do their homework
67．Very soon Ryan Stewart is probably going to __________.
A. get a job as a teacher B. become a religious leader
C. go back to school D. change his major
D
Have you ever had travel problems because your airplane was late? It is a common problem and it is getting worse. Airport delays make people angry and cost the country billions in lost work time.
The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) is the government agency that oversees air travel. They studied the problem of airline delays.
They found eleven major problems and proposed eleven ways to fix them. Some of the problems are caused because different regions of the country do things differently. The regions don’t talk to each other enough. Some of them need new computers.
Also, more planes are flying. A strong economy has more people using airplanes to get around. Airplanes are a form of mass transportation now, like trains and buses were in the past. More planes in the airport cause delays.
The airport in San Francisco is a good example. It is growing fast. Many people go through San Francisco to get to other places around the world.
Ron Wilson of the San Francisco International Airport says, "If you've got 18 flights that all want to take off at 8：00 a. m. and you’re on the 18th plane in line, you're going to be 40 minutes late."
Weather is another main reason for delays. Weather causes about 70 ~ of delays. Fog or freezing rain can cause delays.
The first thing the FAA wants to do is take control away from the regions during heavy traffic times and bad weather. A national center would make decisions on things that affect the whole country. The FAA also wants to put more distance between planes in the sky when the weather is bad. This rule could cause even more delays.
The FAA knows that their solutions will not cure the problems with airport delays. But, they hope to make things better. There are just too many planes, too few traffic controllers, and not enough new technology.
68. Why do airport delays cost billions in lost productivity?
A. people who have to wait for airplanes will quit buying tickets.
B. people who are waiting in airports are losing time at work.
C. when the FAA seizes control of airports, people will lose their jobs.
D. the delays force airport employees to earn overtime pay.
69. Why will the FAA take control away from regional airports?
A. To punish the airports for being late.
B. To prevent weather delays.
C. To make decisions on things that affect the whole country.
D. To make regions talk to each other more.
70. Why do airports in different regions operate differently?
A. They fly planes differently.
B. They speak different languages.
C. They don’t take orders from the FAA.
D. They have set up their own rules over the years.
71. Which of the following is the best title for this passage?
A. Airport Delays on the Rise B. Air Travel Problems
C. Development of Airlines D. FAA's Solutions to Air Travel Problems

In the United States, a country of immigrants prejudice (偏见) and discrimination（歧视) continue to be serious problems. There was often tension between each established group of immigrants and each succeeding group. As each group became more economically successful, and more powerful, they prevented newcomers from full participation in the society. Prejudice and discrimination are part of American history; however, this prejudice treatment of different groups is nowhere more unjust than with black Americans.
Blacks had obvious disadvantages. For the most part, they came to the "land of opportunity" as slaves and they were not free to keep their heritage and cultural traditions. Unlike most European immigrants, blacks did not have the protection of a support group; sometimes slave owners separated members of the same family. They could not mix easily with the established society because of their color. It was difficult for them to adapt to the American culture. Even after they became free people, they still experienced discrimination in employment, housing and education.
Until the twentieth century, the majority of the black population lived in the southern part of the United States. Then there was a population shift to the large cities in the North.Prejudice against blacks is often associated with the South. Slavery was more common there and discrimination was usually much easier to see.
In the 1950s and 1960s, blacks fought to gain fair treatment, and they now have legal protection in housing, education, and employment. Because their neighborhoods are separated, many blacks feel that educational opportunities are not enough for their children. Bussing children from one neighborhood to another is one solution to inequality in education. Naturally, all parents want the best possible education for their children.
The situation of blacks is better today than it was in the 1950s, but racial tension still exists. Time will be the real solution to the problem of race.
72. What is the passage mainly about?
A. Education in the United States.
B. Prejudice and discrimination in the US.
C. Prejudice against American blacks.
D. Unemployment in the United States.
73. When a group of immigrants became strong in its economy, they were likely to
A. fight with the natives to gain more land
B. show prejudice and discrimination against newcomers
C. prevent new settlers from being greatly involved in social activities
D. fight among themselves to establish a more important role
74. It can be learned from the passage that
A. now there are more blacks living in the North than in the South
B. blacks are free people now, so they can enjoy equal rights as whites
C. the American government is not paying much attention to the blacks’ education
D. prejudice and discrimination are more severe in the South than in the North.
75. According to the passage, which of the following is NOT true?
A. Blacks in the US were not those who were worst discriminated.
B. Prejudice and discrimination are part of the United States.
C. It was not easy for blacks to get used to the American culture.
D. The problem of prejudice and discrimination in the US will continue.
