19、s 21—30 are based on Passage 3. (20 points9 2 points each) Passage 3 How to Use London Telephones 1 Telephone calls in Britain are in two classes： local calls, and trunk calls. Short distance calls of up to about twenty miles are classed as local calls, and all calls over longer distances are cla

20、ssed as trunk calls. 2 In London, telephones now have all-figure numbers which do not include an exchange name； for example, 071—222—2870. If you make a local telephone call in London to a subscriber in London, you leave out the 0?l and dial only the last seven figures of the number of the person w

21、hom you are calling. To make a trunk call lo or from London, you dial all the figures of the subscriber's number. 3 The names, addresses and telephone numbers of subscribers in inner London are at present printed in four directories. There are separate directories for people whose names begin with

22、the letters A tc D, E to K, L to R and S to Z. When you look up a person's number in the telephone directory, you will find his name on the left side of the column and his telephone number on the right side. 4 All call-boxes in London are on the STD system, which has now been extended to all parts

23、of Britain. The letters STD stand for Subscriber Trunk Dialing, and on this type of telephone you can dial many long-distance numbers direct as well as local numbers. An STD telephone is usually free, and the coin-box has slots for coins. To make a call, you pick up the receiver and dial the number

24、before putting any money into the coin-box. When the person whose number you are ringing answers, there will be a special rapid tone called the paytone. As soon as you hear this, you put your money in the box. The paytone then stops, and you can start to speak. To make a trunk call by STD, you dial

25、first the STD code number for the town that you are calling and then the number of the subscriber. For example, the STD code number for trunk calls from London to Bristol is 0272； if you telephone a person living in Bristol whose number is Bristol 294020, you would dial 0272—294020. When your time i

26、s up the paytone is repeated； if you wish to continue your talk, you must then put more money into the slot. The length of time allowed is doubled between 6 p. m. and 8 a. m. Now pay phones work slightly differently, however. 5 Besides the STD system, there is also an International Subscriber Diali

27、ng service for making telephone calls to most of the countries of Europe, but some calls can only be made from telephones without a coin-box. You can dial direct to many places in France, Belgium, Germany, Luxembourg, the Netherlands, and Switzerland. 6 A special recorded telephone information serv

28、ice is provided every day for visitors to London. This service gives visitors details of the main events of the day in and around London. The information is recorded in four languages： English, French, German and Spanish. When you wake up in the morning and you want to know what the weather will be

29、like in London, dial 246—8901 ； and, if you want to know time, dial 123. Directions： Read passage 3 and then decide which of the statements after it are TRUE and which are False. On your answer sheet, indicate T for TRUE or F for FALSE against the number for each of items 21—30 for the answers you

30、 choose. 21. Telephone calls in Britain can be classified into two types： local calls and international calls. 22. If you call from London to a subscriber in London, you need to dial 071 first. 23. If you want to know the telephone number of Mr Williams, you need to look it up in 4 the director

Only the call-boxes in London are now on the STD system. 26. To make a call, you need to put money into the coin-box first and then dial th

32、e number after hearing the pay tone. 27. To make a trunk call by STD, you need to dial STD code number first. 28. All calls can be made from telephones with a coin-box. 29.

33、 in London by dialing 246—8901. Part IV Questions 31—35 are based on Passage 4. （20 points, 4 points each） Passage 4 If you smoke - particularly cigarettes, you are far more likely than a non-smoker to suffer or die from several major diseases - notably lung cancer. One smoker in four dies prem

34、aturely（過早地）because of his smoking. The risk of dying for a heavy smoker （ between the ages of 35 and 55） is roughly equal to the risk run by a non-smoker, 10 years older. Cigarette smoking - and to a lesser degree pipe and cigar smoking - may aggravate （使惡 化）or be partly responsible for the develo

35、pment of a wide variety of other diseasest which include cancers of the mouth and throat, peptic ulcers （胃潰瘍），and loss of teeth. Women who smoke during pregnancy produce babies on average about 5 to 8 ounces lighter than those who don't. Take lung cancer for example： Britain's lung cancer figures

36、 are the highest in the world, and rising. Ninety people die every day, 33,000 in 1969. Almost all these deaths can be attributed directly to tobacco smoking. The prospects of a cure for lung cancer are, at present, remote, and it is impossible to estimate when, if ever, someone will find one. You w

37、ould be foolish to rely on someone finding a cure before you needed it. One man in eight who dies between the age of 35 and 64 is killed by lung cancer. The figures for women in this age group are lower，about 1 in 20. This is partly because women smoke less, and have not smoked as long. But the figu

38、res are still very high. Directions： Read passage 4 and then give a short answer to each of the questions 31—35 on your answer sheet. (20 points, 4 points each) 31.
