  Part Ⅲ. Reading Comprehension( 每小提1.5分。共30分)

  Passage:

  Britain almost more than any other country in the world must seriously face the problem of building upwards, that is to say, of accommodating a considerable proportion of its population in high blocks of flats. It is said that the English man objects to this type of existence, but if the case is such, he does in fact differ from the inhabitants of most countries of the world today. In the past our own blocks of flats have been associated with the lower-income groups and they have lacked the obvious provisions, such as central heating constant hot water supply, electrically operated lifts from top to bottom ,and so on, as well as such details , important notwithstanding, as easy facilities for disposal of dust and rubbish ad storage places for baby carriages in the ground floor, playgrounds for children on the top of the buildings, and drying grounds for washing. It is likely that the dispute regarding flats versus individual houses will continue to rage on for a long time as far as Britain is concerned. And it is unfortunate that there should be hot feelings on both sides whenever this subject is raised. Those who oppose the building of flats base their case primarily on the assumption that everyone prefers an individual home and garden and on the high cost per unit of accommodation. The latter ignores the higher cost of providing full services to a scattered community and the cost in both money and time of the journeys to work for the suburban resident.

  71. We can infer from the passage that .

  A. English people, like most people in other countries, dislike living in flats

  B. people in most countries of the world today are not opposed to living in flats

  C. people in Britain are forced to move into high blocks of flats

  D. modern flats still fail to provide the necessary facilities for living

  72. What is said about blocks of flats built in the past in Britain?

  A. They were mostly inhabited by people who did not earn much

  B. They were usually not large enough to accommodate big families

  C. They were sold to people before necessary facilities were installed.

  D. They provided playgrounds for children on the top of the buildings.

  73. The word “rage”(Line 11) means .

  A. be ignored

  B. develop with great force

  C. encourage people greatly

  D. be in fashion

  74. Some people oppose the building of flats because .

  A. the living expenses for each individual family are higher

  B. it involves higher cost compared with the building of houses

  C. they believe people like to live in houses with gardens

  D. the disposal of rubbish remains a problem for those living in flats

  75. The author mentions that people who live in suburban houses .

  A. do not have access to easy facilities because they live away from the city

  B. have to pay a lot of money to employ to do service work

  C. take longer time to know each other because they are a scattered community

  D. have to spend more money and time traveling to work every day

  Questions 76 to 80 are based on the following passage:

  The fridge is considered a necessity. It has been so since the 1960s when packaged food first appeared with the label: “store in the refrigerator.”

  In my fridgeless fifties childhood, I was fed well and healthily. The milkman came daily, the grocer, the butcher, the baker, and the ice-cream man delivered two or three times a week. The Sunday meat would last until Wednesday and surplus bread and mile became all kinds of cakes. Nothing was wasted, and we were never troubled by rotten food. Thirty years on food deliveries have ceased, fresh vegetables are almost unobtainable in the country.

  The invention of the fridge contributed comparatively little to the art of food preservation. A vast way of well-tried techniques already existed—natural cooling, drying, smoking salting, sugaring, bottling…

  What refrigeration did promote was marketing----marketing hardware and electricity, making soft drinks, marketing dead bodies of animals around the globe in search of a good price.

  Consequently, most of the world’s fridge are to be found, not in the tropics where they might prove useful, but in the wealthy countries with mild temperatures where they are climatically almost unnecessary. Every winter, millions of fridges hum away continuously, and at vast expense, busily maintaining an artificially-cooled space inside an artificially-heated house-while outside, nature provides the desired temperature free of charge.

  The fridge’s effect upon the environment has been evident, while its contribution to human happiness has been insignificant. If you don’t believe me, try it yourself, invest in a food cabinet and turn off your fridge next winter. You may miss the hamburgers, but at least you’ll get rid of that terrible hum.

  B. the author was not accustomed to use fridge even in his fifties

  C. there was no fridge in the author’s Home in the 1950s.

  D.the fridge was in its early stage of development in the 1950s.

  77.why does the author way that nothing was wasted before the invention of fridges?

  A. People would not buy more food than was necessary.

  B. Food was delivered to people two or three times a week.

  C. Food was sold fresh and did not get rotten easily.

  D. People had effective ways to preserve their food.

  78.Who benefited the least from fridges according to the author?

  A. Inventors.

  Question 81 to 85 are based on the following passage:

  If you want to stay young , sit down and have a good think .This is the research finding of a team of Japanese doctors ,who say that most of our brains are not getting enough exercise—and as a result , we are ageing unnecessarily soon.

  Professor Taiju Matsuzawa wanted to find out why otherwise healthy farmers in northern Japan appeared to be losing their ability to think and reason at a relatively early age , and how the process of ageing could slowed down.

  With a team of colleagues at Tokyo National University, he set about measuring brain volumes of a thousand people of different ages and varying occupations .

  Computer technology enabled the researchers to obtain precise measurements of the volume of the front and side sections of the brain , which relate to intellect and emotion , and determine the human character . (The rear section of the brain , which controls functions like eating and breathing , does not contract with age , and one can continue living without intellectual on emotional faculties or functions).

  Contraction of front and side parts as cells die off – was observed in some subjects in their thirties , but it was still not evident in some sixty – and seventy-year-olds.

  Matsuzaswa concluded from his tests that there is a simple remedy to the contraction normally associated with age –using the head .

  The findings show in general terms that contraction of the brain begins sooner in people in the country than in the towns. Those least at risk , says Matsuzawa , are lawyers , followed by university professors and doctors . White collar workers doing routine work in government offices are , however , as likely to have shrinking brains as the farm worker , bus driver and shop assistant .

  Matsozawa’s findings show that thinking can prevent the brain from shrinking . Blood must circulate properly in the head to supply the fresh oxygen the brain cells need .”The best way to maintain good blood circulation is through using the brain , “he says . “Think hard and engage in conversation . Don’t rely on pocket calculators .”

  81.The team of doctors wanted to find out :

  A. why certain people are sooner than others

  C. sixty-year-olds have better brains than thirty-year-olds

  D. some people’s brains have contracted more than other people’s

  Question 86 to 90 are based on the following passage:

  When we think of creative people the names that probably spring to mind are those of men such as Leonardo da Vinci, Albert Einstein , and Pablo Picasso , i.e. , great artists ,inventors and scientists – a select and exceptionally gifted body of men with rare talent and genius . The tendency to regard creativity and imaginative thinking as the exclusive province of a lucky few disregards the creative and imaginative aspects inherent in the solution of many of the tasks we regularly have to face ---the discovery and development of new methods and techniques , the improvement of old methods ,existing inventions and products .

  Everyone has creative ability to some extent . Creative thinking involves posingoneself a problem and then originating or inventing a solution along new and unconventional lines . It involves drawing new analogies , discovering new combinations , and/or new application of things that a creative person will exhibit great intellectual curiosity and imagination .He will be alert and observant with a great store of information which he will be able to sort out and combine , in the solution of problems . He will be emotionally receptive to new and unconventional ideas and will be less interested in facts than in their implications . Most important of all , he will be less interested in facts than in their implications .
