问答题Passage 1  Neither the Americans nor the Russians have the resources to continue human space flight on their own; both sides know they need each other. (1) It’s much easier and cheaper to get used to each other and to blend differing operating styles, languages, and systems on the aged Mir (a Russian word for “peace”) than trying to do that while jointly building a new space station. NASA, in fact, calls its program of shuttle lights to Mir Phase 1 of the International Space Station (ISS). Phase 2 marks the beginning of actual construction. The procedures used to dock the shuttle to Mir, for example, also will be used as a lifeboat for the Island Progress freighters, like the one that crashed into Mir in June, will haul cargo to the ISS. (2) One unintended benefit of Mir’s technical troubles is that they have actually forced the two nations to work much more closely together than they had planned.  Except for a brief period in the 1970s with Skylab, NASA has never operated a space station; the Russians have been running them for years. Astronauts have long been trained intensively to perform specific tasks on shuttle flights lasting 18 days or less. (3) Russian astronauts, however, learn more general skills, since they spend many months in orbit and no one can forecast all the problems they might encounter. As a result of shuttle-Mir experience, NASA is revising astronaut training to include more of the general skills they will need on the ISS.  NASA decided to send astronauts to Mir based on its long record of safe operation. But this year, crews aboard Mir have faced two of the most serious emergencies in the history of human space flight. (4) In February, an oxygen generator caught fire, shooting out 4-foot-long jets of flame like; fire extinguishers were bolted in place, delaying reaction to the fire. In June, a Progress Freighter collided with the Specter module, puncturing it. Specter had to be sealed off to prevent all the air from leaking from the spacecraft. (5) The ancient computer that controls Mir has failed many times, causing most other systems, including the one that keeps the station’s solar panels pointing at the sun, to shut down. One failure in August occurred while a Progress was docking. Last week, the computer crashed again, the carbon dioxide removal system shut down, and a mysterious brown fluid — probably rocket fuel — appeared to leak from the station.

Most Americans find the idea of arranged marriages difficult to understand or accept.They believe that two people should marry for love, after a period of dating or courtship.During that period, the prospective marriage partners are supposed to learn enough about each other to decide whether or not they will be able to build a successful marriage.Today in America, it is common for people to live together as a way of preparing for marriage.The idea of an arranged marriage seems very old-fashioned indeed.But aren't all marriages arranged in one way or another? In the United States marriages are seldom formally arranged, but quite a lot of informal arranging goes on before two people become husband and wife.People who get married are introduced to each other by friends.These friends have already decided that the two people are right for each other and arrange for them to meet.In the United States this kind of arrangement is very common.Because friends have such great influence, their approval of a dating partner is very important.Families also exert open and subtle pressures on their children to influence their choices of marriage partners.Parents often arrange dates for their own children.One parent often tells a friend about her beautiful daughter or handsome son.Also, parents can meet the perfect marriage prospect for their son or daughter through business relationships.Since parents often assist their children financially, they feel that they have the right to help the bride and groom select where they will live, what type of furniture they will purchase, and what their life-style. will be like.1.Most Americans think that arranged marriages are().A.understandableB.acceptableC.unavoidableD.old fashioned2.According to this passage, the prospective marriage partners().A.often write to each otherB.often attend formal parties togetherC.often meet each otherD.often discuss problems together3.Which of the flowing is TRUE according to this passage?()A.Marriages are usually arranged by parents in America.B.No arranging goes on before two people get married.C.Only one formal arrangement takes place before two people get married.D.There are usually a lot of informal arrangements before two people get married.4.Which of the following is NOT true?()A.Parents often try to influence their children's marriages.B.Open arranged marriages are unusual in the U.S.C.Friends sometimes play some role in getting two people together who may get married later.D.Parents never care much about their children's marriages.5.Which of the following can be inferred from the last paragraph?()A.Social class has much influence on marriages.B.Nationality has much influence on marriages.C.Knowledge has much influence on marriages.D.Age has much influence on marriages.

问答题Modern means of transportation, telecommunication and mass media have shortened the geographical distance of the world. The international community appears to be no more than a global village, in which people of different nations engage themselves in cultural exchange, while seeking common development in harmonious and respectful relationship. I think different cultures should learn from each other’s strengths to offset their own weaknesses. However, we also have to understand that cultural exchange is by no means a process of losing one’s own culture to a foreign one, but a process of enriching each other’s national cultures. Of course, the culture of a nation must withhold its own distinctive national characteristics in its extensive exchange with other cultures, and make contributions to the development of human civilization.

问答题One of the questions coming into focus as we face growing scarcity of resources in the world is how to divide limited resources among countries. In the international development (1) com____, the coronal wisdom has been that the billion people living in poor countries could never expect to (2) r____ the standard of living that most of the people in North America enjoy, simply because the world does not contain enough iron ore, protein, petroleum, and so on. At the same time, we in the United States have continued to pursue super-affluence as though there were no limits (3)____ how much we could consume. We (4) m____ only 6 percent of the world’s people; yet we consume one third of the world’s resources.  As long as the resources we consumed each year came primarily from (5) w____ our own boundaries, this was largely an internal matter. But as our resources come more and more from the outside world, we will no longer be able to think in (6)____ of “our” resources and “their” resources, but only of (7) c____ resources.  As Americans consume such a(n) (8)____(proportion) share of the world’s resources, we have to question whether or not we can continue our pursuit of super-affluence in a world of (9)____(scarce). We are now reaching the point at which we must carefully examine the presumed link between our level of well-being and the level of material goods consumed. If you have only one crust of bread and get another crust of bread, your well-being is greatly enhanced. But if you have a loaf of bread, then an additional crust of bread doesn’t make (10) d____. In the eyes of most of the world today, Americans have their loaf of bread and are asking for still more. The prospect of a scarcity of, and competition in, the world’s resources requires that we re-examine the way in which we relate to the rest of the world.
