It was an important day for Rita Van. Two
guests were coming for dinner. All week, she planned the dinner with great
care. She thought about serving roast beef and red wine, but she finally
decided to serve duck and white wine.
She didn’t have to clean her apartment
because it was always clean. She was a very neat person, and everything
was always in place. She put some interesting books and magazines on the coffee
table. Then she looked to see if all of her records were in order so that her
guests could choose the music they wanted to hear.
On the day of the dinner, she finished the
shopping and bought some flowers. She put on her nicest skirt and sweater. Then
she set the table and arranged the flowers. She enjoyed preparing the dinner. Everything
looked and seemed so good. It was exactly eight o’clock, and it was almost time
to take the duck out of the oven (烤箱) .
Suddenly the telephone rang. She picked it up. At
first, she did’t understand. Where were they? Why were they calling? Oh, they
couldn’t come. She couldn’t believe it.
She had some soup, and then she sat for a
long time, looking down at the table. Finally she turned on the radio and
listened to a man giving people advice about their problems.

Leonardo Da Vinci made drawings of
submarines (潛艇) . but he did not show his drawings to
other people. He said that there was “too much badness in the hearts of men.” He
wrote, “If I give them my secret, they will use it for war in the depths (深度) of the sea.”
Now both the Americans and the Russians
have more than 200 nuclear (核能的) submarines. These submarines carry nuclear
missiles (導(dǎo)彈) . many missiles can go 4800 kilometres. The
submarines can fire them from under the water. But now planes and satellites
can “see” the heat of these submarines below the sea. What is the answer?
Countries can build missile stations on the
seabed. They can build them secretly near the coasts of the other countries. Will
there be war unedr the sea? Will there be war in the deep valleys and high
mountains of the seabed? Nobody can win that war. If life, if fish and plants
and animals die , then man will die too.
Keeping the sea alive means keeping man
alive. Will we kill the sea with pollution and war or will we farm the sea and
life?
60．Why did Leonardo Da Vinci not show his drawings of
submarines to other people?

Cell phones, pagers, laptop cimputers, and
personal digital (數(shù)字) assistants are being used, bringing
increased productivity and efficiency to millions of users. A survery, however,
suggests that too much information may be getting out of hand. From
palmtop computer e-mail to cell phone voice mail, controlling these ways of
receiving information is becoming a serious management problem for the people
who use them.
People may feel overwhelmed, leading them
to become stressed and have less time to spend with their family and friends.
Thus, it is mecessary to set up an
organizing system for people to handle the electronic information. When people
master the digital organization, it will greatly and improve both their
professional and personal lives. Without an organizing system, however, people
have to spend a large amount of time looking for misplaced information.
64．What’s the main purpose of the text?
A、Tell people the advantages of modern devices (設(shè)備) .
B、Tell people to set up an organizing system
to handle information.
C、Complain (抱怨) of the
modern devices.

information.
B、It can help people to handle the electronic
information.
C、It can simplify and improve both their
professional and personal lives.
D、Both B and C.

Foods quickly spoil and break down if they
are not stored correctly. Heat and damp encourage an increase of
micro-organisms (微生物) ,and sunlight can destroy the vitamins in
such foods as milk. Therefore, most foods should be stored in a cool, dark, dry
place.
Some foods go had quickly, such as meat,
eggs, and milk. They should be stored in a refrigerator or in the underground
basement of a house.
Dry goods, such as flour and rice, should
be kept a slightly higher temperathure than foods that go bad quickly. A
temperature of 15℃ is ideal (理想的). In Britain
and northem European countries this means that the room in which dry goods are
stored should share the general heating of the house. The room should also be
well aired and, above all, dry. Damp very quickly causes the growth of the
green molds (霉) . These molds often grow on cheese if it
is not stored properly.
Fruits and vegetables need cool, damp, but
frost-proof (防霜凍的) conditions. Therefore, an underground
basement usually makes an excellent storage place. If the central heating until
is located in the basement, however, it will not be ideal unless the unit and
the pipes do not give out any heat.
Foodstuffs (食料、糧食) do
not break down quickly. If correctly stored, they should keep for quite long
periods of time. Thus, salt and sugar will keep for about two years; tinned
meat goods, such as beef and chicken, for about eighteen months; flour and
other dry goods, for about a year. Freezing the foodstuffs that spoil easily
preserves them for much longer than is otherwise possible. But even frozen
foods do not keep their food value of their taste for ever. As a general rule,
meat should be cooked and eaten within a year afrer it is frozen; fish, within
six to ten months; fruits and vegetables, within three to six months.
68．According to the author, why should food be stored in
a dark place?
A、Such a place is usually cool and well aired.
B、The producer of the food requires us to do
so.
C、Heat causes the growth of the
micro-organisms in the food.
D、The vitamins in some food can be ruined by
runlight.
69．In northn European countries the general heating of
the house can keep the ideal temperature for .
A、the growth of the green molds B、the processing of cheese
C、the storage of flour and rice D、the operation of refrigerators
70．How many possible places have been recommended for
storing fruits and vegetables?
A、One . B、Two. C、Three. D、Four.
71．What is the main purpose of the last paragraph?
A、To inform the reader about the lengths of time that
foodstuffs will keep.
B、To show how to keep the food value of
frozen foods.
C、To tell us meat should be cooked and eaten
within a vear.
D、To describe the disadvantages of frozen
foods.

It is said that matheatics is the base of
all other sciences, and that arethmetic (算術(shù)；計(jì)算) ,
the science of numbers is the base of mathematics. Numbers consist of whole
number which are formed by the digits 0 ,1 , 2 , 3 , 4 , 5 , 6 , 7 , 8 and 9
and by combinatics of them by three digits. Parts of numbers smaller than I are
sometimes expressed in terms of fractions (分?jǐn)?shù)) ,but in
scientific usage they are given as decimals (小數(shù)) . This
is because it is easier to perform the various mathe-matical operations if
decimals are used instead of fractions.
The decimal, or ten-scale, system is used
for scientific purposes throughout the world. It is even accepted in countries
whose national systems of weights and measurements are based upon other scales.
The other scale in general use nowadays is the binary, or two-scales. In such a
scale (進(jìn)位) , numbers are expressed by combination of
only two digits, 0 and 1. Thus, 2 is expressed as 010, 3 is given as 011, 4 is
represented as 100, etc. This scale is perfectly adapted to the “off-on” pulses
of electricity, so it is widely used in electronic computers. It is because of
its simplicity that the scale is often called “the lazy schoolboy’s dream”!
Other branches of mathematics such as
algebra (代數(shù)) and geometry are also extensively used in
many sciences and even in some areas of philosophy. More specialized extension,
such as probability theory and group theory, are now applied to an increasing
number of activities, ranging from economics and the design of experimernts to
war and politics.
Finally, a knowledge of statistics is required
by every type of scientists for the analysis of data. Moreover, even an
elementary knowledge of this branch of mathematics is rufficient to enable the
journalist to avoid misleading his readers. It is also useful in helping the
ordinary citizen detect the attempts attempts which are constantly made to
deceiven him.
72．What is the passage mainly about?
A、The importance of statistics (統(tǒng)計(jì)學(xué)) .
B、The branches of mathematics and their
applications.
C、The new development of arithmetic.
D、The relation of mathematics to other
sciences.
73．Which of the following descriptions best applied to
the decimal system?
A、The base of all national systems of weights and
measurements.
B、The number system based on whole numbers
and fractions.
C、The widely adopted number system in science
today.
D、The basic number system for computer work.
74．According to the passage, why is the binary system
often called “the lazy schoolboy’s dream”?
A、Arithmetic operations in this system are relatively (相對(duì)地) easy.
B、The schoolboy likes the digital computers.
C、This system is not required to be learned
in schoos.
D、The two-scale mathematical operations are
interesting.
75．According to the passage, which of the following
statements about philosophy (哲學(xué)) is true?
A、Mathematics in the modern world is
advancing faster than philosophy.
B、In natural sciences more areas of
philosophy are being used than ever before.
C、Philosophy has made great contributions to
the progress of algebra and geometry.
D、Mathematical knowledge plays an important
role in some fields of philosophy.
