参考解析
解析：
细节理解题。在谈到有2800人不用受苦，作者紧接着说“Unluckily, rich countries have this knowledge, but developing countries do not”，很多发展中国家不知道这些。下文又提到ORBIS为这些国家提供支持。所以世界上还有许多盲人受苦是因为有些国家无法支付他们学习知识的费用。

EA rainforest is an area covered by tall trees with the total high rainfall spreading quite equally through the year and the temperature rarely dipping below l6℃．Rainforests have a great effect on the world environment because they can take in heat from the sun and adjust the climate．Without the forest cover，these areas would reflect more heat into the atmosphere，warming the rest of the world. Losing the rainforests may also influence wind and rainfall patterns，potentially causing certain natural disasters all over the world．In the past hundred years，humans have begun destroying rainforests in search of three major resources(资源)：land for crops，wood for paper and other products，land for raising farm animals．This action affects the environment as a whole．For example，a lot of carbon dioxide (二氧化碳)in the air comes from burning the rainforests．People obviously have a need for the resources we gain from cutting trees but we will suffer much more than we will benefit.There are two main reasons for this．Firstly，when people cut down trees，generally they can only use the land for a year or two．Secondly，cutting large sections of rainforests may provide a good supply of wood right now，but in the long run it actually reduces the world’s wood supply．Rainforests are often called the world’s drug store．More than 25％ of the medicines we use today come from plants in rainforests．However，fewer than l％of rainforest plants have been examined for their medical value．It is extremely likely that our best chance to cure diseases lies somewhere in the world’s shrinking rainforests．72．Rainforests can help to adjust the climate because they ．A．reflect more heat into the atmosphereB．bring about high rainfall throughout the worldC．rarely cause the temperature to drop lower than l6℃D．reduce the effect of heat from the sun on the earth
Passage TwoWhen we see well, we do not think about our eyes very often. It is only when we cannot see perfectly that we realize how important our eyes are.People who are nearsighted can only see things that are very close to their eyes. Everything else is not so clear. Many people who do a lot of close work, such as writing, reading and sewing, become near sighted. Then they have to wear glasses in order to see distant (远处的) things clearly'.People who are nearsighted suffer from just the opposite problem. They can see things that are far away, but they have difficulty in reading a book unless they hold it at arm's length. If they want to do much reading, they must get glasses, too.Other people do not see clearly because their eyes are not exactly the right shape. They have what is called astigmatism (散光). This, too, can be corrected by glasses. Some people's eyes become cloudy because of cataracts (白内障). Long ago these people often became blind. Now, however, it is possible to operate on the cataracts and remove them.Having two good eyes is important for judging distances. Each eye sees things from a slightly different angle (角度). To prove this to yourself, look at an object out of one eye; then look at the same object outof the other eye. You will find the object's relation to the background (背景) and other things around it has changed. The difference between these two different eye views helps us to judge how far away an object is. People who have only one eye cannot judge distance as people with two eyes.40. We should take good care of our eyes ______.A. only when we cannot see perfectlyB. only when we can see wellC. even if we can see wellD. only when we realize how important our eyes are
People who suffer from astigmatismA. have a curable disease in their eyesB. have eyes that are not exactly the right shapeC. have a difficulty that can be corrected by an operationD. have an eye difficulty that cannot be corrected by glasses
Interviewer-------- Why is English so important?David------- Well, English is so important primarily because so many people speak it and use it, so it has now become the lingua franca in the world in a way that we’ve never seen before. We’ve never had a world language of this kind before. So people are learning it not just to be able tocommunicate with native speakers, but also with speakers of other language around world.Interviewer-------And why has it become that dominant language?David------I think the reason for that is actually very complicated, although in the twentieth century, we can just see that it’s the rise of the US military and consumer power. I mean the technology, all the big developments in technology largely came from the US. So all of these developments actually were produced within the English language, and people had to learn English in order to understand them, or to benefit from them. The Internet is only one example of that kind. Once a language has got into that position of dominance, it’s actually very different to shift it. So we could be seeing the emergence of other big languages in the world becoming more important than they have been, like Spanish, but it’s unlikely that they’re going to shift the English from its position of dominance.36.

A). because it has become a world language B). because so many people speak and use it C). because a lot of people are learning it D). because it is the lingua franca37.

Around the world more and more people are taking part in dangerous sports and activities．Of course，there have always been people who have looked for adventure--those who have climbed the highest mountains，explored（探险）unknown parts of the world or sailed in small boats across the greatest oceans．Now，however，there are people who seek（寻找）an immediate thrill（令人激动的事情）from a risky activity which may only last a few minutes or even seconds．I?would consider bungee（蹦极）jumping to be a good example of such an aetwity．You jump?from a high place（perhaps a bridge or a hot air balloon）200 metres above the ground with an elas-tic（弹性的）rope tied to your ankles．You fall at up to 150 kilometres an hour until the rope stops you from hitting the ground．It is estimated that 2 million people around the world have now tried bungee jumping．Other activities which most people would say are as risky as bungee jumping involve（包括）jumping from tall buildings and diving into the sea from the top of high cliffs．Why do people take part in such activities as these?Some psychologists（心理学家）suggestthat it is because life in modern societies has become safe and borin9．Not very long ago，people’s lives were constantly under threat．They had to go out and hunt for food，diseases could not easily be cured，and life was a continuous battle for survival．Nowadays，according to many people，life offers little excitement．They live and work in?comparatively safe environments;they buy food in shops;and there are doctors and hospitals to look?after them if they become ill.The answer for some of these people is to seek danger in activities such?as bungee jumping.People probably take part in dangerous sports nowadays because__________.A.they have a lot of free timeB.they can go to hospital if they are injuredC.their lives lack excitementD.they no longer need to hunt for food
