16、nding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the center. I There is one foreign product the Japanese are buying faster than others, and its popularity has caused an uneasy feeling among many Japanese. That product is foreign words. Gairaigo——words that come from outside——have been

17、part of the Japanese language for centuries. Mostly borrowed from English and Chinese, these terms are often changed into forms no longer understood by native speakers. But in the last few years the trickle (涓涓細流) of foreign words has become a flood, and people fear the increasing use of foreign wor

18、ds is making it hard for the Japanese to understand each other and could lead to many people forgetting the good qualities of traditional Japanese. "The popularity of foreign words is part of the Japanese interest in anything new," says university lecturer and writer Takashi Saito. "By using a forei

19、gn word you can make a subject seem new, which makes it easier for the media to pick up." "Experts often study abroad and use English terms when they speak with people in their own fields. Those terms are then included in government white papers," said Muturo Kai, president of the National Language

20、Research Institute. "Foreign words find their way easily into announcements made to the general public, when they should really be explained in Japanese." Against the flow of new words, many Japanese are turning back to the study of their own language. Saito's Japanese to Be Read Aloud is one of man

21、y language books that are now flying off booksellers' shelves. "We were expecting to sell the books to young people," said the writer, "but it turns out they are more popular with the older generation, who seem uneasy about the future of Japanese." 31. What advantages do foreign words have over tra

22、ditional Japanese terms? A. The ideas expressed in foreign words sound new. B. Foreign words are best suited for announcements. C. Foreign words make new subjects easier to understand. D. The use of foreign words makes the media more popular. 32. In the opinion of Takashi Saito, Japanese p

23、eople_________ A. are good at learning foreign languages B. are willing to learn about new things C. trust the media D. respect experts 33. Which of the following plays an important part in the spread of foreign words? A. The media and government papers. B. Best-selling Japanese textbooks.

24、 C. The interest of young Japanese. D. Foreign products and experts. 34. The book Japanese to Be Read Aloud__________. A. sells very well in Japan B. is supported by the government C. is questioned by the old generation D. causes misunderstanding among the readers II Before 1945, har

25、dly anyone outside of New Mexico had ever heard of Alamogordo. In 1960 its population numbered 21, 723.Ever since 1898, when the town had been built by the Southern Pacific Railroad, Alamogordo had been a lonely town. The land around it was largely desert, and largely empty. Because it was isolated

26、( 隔離旳) and because the weather was almost always clear and peaceful, a spot of desert near Alamogordo was chosen as the test site for the first atomic bomb ever exploded. The secret name of the test was Zero. At dawn on July 16, 1945, the atomic bomb was set off. Observers agreed that they had witne

27、ssed something unlike anything ever seen by man before, a huge, colorful fireball, more brilliant than the sun, flashing as it rose for miles into the air. Never before had man released so much power at one time, nor had any nation ever possessed a weapon as terrible and destructive as the atomic bo

28、mb. For several weeks, the test was kept secret. When an atomic bomb was dropped from an American plane on Hiroshima, Japan, newspapers and radio stations all over America told of the test of the bomb in New Mexico. Almost everybody was surprised to learn where the bomb had been made and tested; the

29、 deserts of the Southwest had hidden the secret well. When news of the atomic bomb and its destructiveness was announced, people all over the world wondered what other new weapons were being prepared in the New Mexico desert. Some people doubted that the secret of making atomic bombs could be kept f

30、rom other countries. Some even doubted the wisdom of using so powerful a weapon. But no one doubted that a new kind of war had begun at Alamogordo, one summer morning in 1945. 35. What is the best topic of this passage? A. The secret of Alamogordo. B. A new kind of war. C. The destructive forc

31、e of the first atomic bomb. D. The selection of the test site for the first atom bomb. 36. Which of the following is the main reason for choosing Alamogordo as the test site? A. It always had an enjoyable climate. B. It was connected to other cities by a railway. C. Its location would hide the

32、 secret well. D. It was situated in southwestern New Mexico. 37. When was the atomic bomb dropped on Hiroshima? A. As soon as the secret was let out. B. At dawn on July 16, 1945. C. Immediately after the test. D. Several weeks after the test. 38. After the first atomic bomb explosion, ev

33、eryone agreed that__________ A. it was wise to choose Alamogordo as the test site B. man had entered the age of nuclear war C. it was not wise to use such a powerful weapon D. it was not possible to keep the technology of making atomic bombs as a secret III The coolest idea in stroke treat

34、ment is refrigeration. Yes, cold is hot. Many doctors believe they can reduce the lasting forever damage after a stroke by quickly dropping patient body temperatures for a day or two, basically storing their brains on ice. “It's like putting food in the refrigerator. It doesn't go bad. You slow down

35、 all the processes.” says Dr David Tong of Stanford University. The approach is new, but the understanding behind it—that cold protects the brain like a fridge keeps tomatoes——has been recognized for centuries. Everyone knows a story of a child who falls into an icy pond is fished out after 45 minut

36、es and then is warmed up and is perfectly OK. The cold water stops biological processes that ordinarily would kill brain cells almost immediately. Performed occasionally in surgery, cooling the sick is still considered too risky and unpleasant and impractical for the 700, 000 strokes in the US each

37、year. Instead, researchers put their faith in medicines. But that goal has been all too difficult to catch as dozens of supposedly brain-protecting drugs failed testing over that past ten years. Now, supported by fresh science and new technology, doctors are looking again at cold. They hope soon to

38、prove it a workable and valuable first step for treating stroke victims. In theory, doctors say, cooling the head should slow or even stop the destruction of weak brain cells. Several experiments have indicated this might be the case. Currently the whole body must be cooled, using air-cooled blanket

39、s and sometimes packing in ice or rubbing with alcohol. Deep-cooling is already sometimes used to minimize (減到最低) damage during some surgery. It was also the way in the early days of open-heart surgery before the invention of the movement of blood machines that pump the blood while the heart is stop

40、ped. For these operations, doctors often took patients to such low temperatures that dangerous complications (并發(fā)癥 ) occurred, such as irregular heartbeats and blood clotting. 39. The writer thinks that refrigeration in stroke treatment___________. A. is a wonderful method B. will produce high te

41、mperature C. has been used for centuries D. is too simple to carry out 40. In the USA, cooling the sick in surgery_______. A. is popular but risky for patients B. has been proved to be safer than brain-protecting drugs C. is .considered helpful for treating stroke patients D. is still consid

42、ered dangerous and costs more money 41. From this passage we can conclude that___________. A. doctors should treat all kinds of patients in an old way B. doctors should treat all kinds of patients in a strange way C. medical science is developing with other sciences D. medical treatment is bas

43、ed on theory 42. From the last part of this passage, we know that_________. A. doctors can't operate on a patient if his body temperature is high B. doctors should try their best to reduce a patient's temperature C. a patient's body can work normally without the movement of his blood D. a

44、patient's body temperature can't be reduced too low IV Imagine going to your doctor with frequent headaches. Your doctor takes a prescription pad and writes a word on it. The word isn‘t “aspirin”, it’s “Mozart”. The idea isn't so far-fetched. Many kinds of music can stir the imagination and produc

45、e strong feeling. Scientists have found Mozart's music to be remarkable in its ability to calm its listeners. Many amazing cases have been known using Mozart as a healing(治愈旳) aid. For example,a tiny newly-born baby named Krissy, who weighed just 1.5 pounds at birth, was on total life support. Docto

46、rs thought she had little chance of survival. Her mother insisted on playing Mozart for Krissy, and thinks it saved her daughter's life. Krissy lived, but she was very small for her age and slower than the average child. At the age of four, she showed an interest in music and her parents gave her vi

47、olin lessons. To their astonishment, Krissy was able to play musical pieces from memory that were far beyond the ability of an average four-year-old. Playing music helped her improve in all areas of her life. And there are other stories. Officials in Washington State report that new arrivals from As

48、ia learn English more quickly when they listen to Mozart. Even animals respond to Mozart. In France, cows listening to Mozart give more milk. Why Mozart, rather than Bach or the Beatles? Any kind of music can have an effect on some people. But Mozart has more balance. It isn't too fast or too show;

49、it's just right. Don Campbell, who wrote a book called The Mozart Effect, says, "It's like food. A hot spicy meal will affect you differently than a sweet dessert. And while you might love these foods, they aren't good for you to eat every day. You need simple, nutritious (營養(yǎng)旳 ) food on a steady bas

50、is. That's the way Mozart is. It's like a nutritionally balanced meal that does good to your body." 43. Scientists find Mozart's music has a special effect on__________ A. stirring people's imagination B. curing certain illnesses C. increasing the growth of a newly-born baby D. calming dow

51、n its listeners 44. From the third paragraph, we can conclude that Krissy if she had not listened to Mozart. A. would have died B. would not have been so gifted in music C. would have stayed in hospital longer D. would have stopped growth 45. Which of the following is not true about the e

52、ffect of Mozart's music? A. It can help people learn foreign languages more easily. B. It can help people sleep more peacefully. C. It can make cows give more milk. D. It can be used as medicine. 46. The author mentioned Don Campell and his book_____________ A. as a good support to his o

53、wn idea B. to show the relationship between food and music C. to give some new explanations about Mozart's music D. to ask people to listen to Mozart more Fish have ears. Really. They're quite small and have no opening to the outside world carrying sound through the body. For the past seve

54、n years, Simon Thorrold, a university professor, has been examining fish ears, small round ear bones called otoliths. As fish grow, so do their otoliths. Each day, their otoliths gain a ring of calcium carbonate. By looking through a microscope and counting these rings, Thorrold can determine the ex

55、act age of a young fish. As a fish gets older, its otoliths no longer get daily rings. Instead, they get yearly rings, which can also be counted, giving information about the fish's age, just like the growth rings of a tree. Ring counting is nothing new to fish scientists. But Thorrold has turned to

56、 a new direction. They're examining the chemical elements (元素 ) of each otolith ring. The daily ring gives us the time, but chemistry tells us about the environment in which the fish swam on any given day. These elements tell us about the chemistry of the water that the fish was in. It also says som

57、ething about water temperature, which determines how much of these elements will gather within each otolith ring. Thorrold can tell, for example, if a fish spent time in the open ocean before entering the less salty water of coastal areas. He can basically tell where fish are spending their time at

58、any given stage of history. In the case of the Atlantic croaker, a popular saltwater food fish, Thorrold and his assistant have successfully followed the travelling of young fish from mid-ocean to the coast, a journey of many hundreds of miles. This is important to managers in the fish industry, who

59、 know nearly nothing about the whereabouts of the young fish for most food fish in the ocean. Eager to learn about his technology, fish scientists are now lending Thorrold their ears. 47.What can we learn about fish ears from the text? A. They are small soft rings. B. They are not seen from the

60、outside. C. They are openings only on food fish. D. They are not used to receive sound. 48. Why does the writer compare the fish to trees? A. Trees gain a growth ring each day. B. Trees also have otoliths. C. Their growth rings are very small. D. They both have growth rings. 49. Why is it

61、important to study the chemistry of otolith rings? A. The elements of the otoliths can tell the history of the sea. B. Chemical contents of otoliths can tell how fast fish can swim. C. We can know more about fish and their living environment. D. Scientists can know exactly how old a fish is. 5

62、0. How would you understand "fish scientists are now lending their ears" ? A. They are very interested in Thorrold's research findings. B. They want to know where they can find fish. C. They lend their fish for chemical studies. D. They wonder if Thorrold can find growth rings from their ear
