Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are fourchoices marked A), B), C) and D). You should decide on the best choice andmark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single linethrough the center.Passage OneQuestions 61 to 65 are based on the following passage:On May 29, 1973, Thomas Bradley, a black man, was elected mayor of Los Angeles. Los Angeles is the third largest city in the United States, with a population of three million. About sixteen percent of the city’s population are black.News of this elction appeared on the front pages of newspapers everywhere in the United States. Here is how one major newspaper reported the event: Los Angeles Elects Bradley Mayor, Defeating Yorty---Black Win 56% of Votes.Bradley called his victory “the fulfillment of dream.” During his childhood and youth, people had kept telling him, “You can’t do this, you can’t go there, becauseyou’re a Negro.” Nevertheless he had won a decisive victory over a man who had been the city’s mayor for three times. Bradley had won percent of the votes; Yorty had won percent.Los Angeles voters had many opportunities to judge Thomas Bradley and to form an opinion of him. The son of a poor farmer from Texas, he joined the Los Angeles police force in 1940. During his twenty-one years on the police force he earned a law degree by attending school at night. He was elected to the city council ten years ago. At the time of Los Angeles election three other American cities already had black mayors, but none of those cities had as large a population as Los Angeles. Besides, the percentage of blacks in those cities was much larger. Cleveland, Ohio, was thirty-six percent black when Carl Stokes was elected mayor of Cleveland in 1967. In the same year Richard Hatcher was elected mayor of Gary, Indiana, which was fifty-five percent black. In Newark, New Jersey, sixty percent of the population were black when Kenneth Glibson was elected in 1970. Thus the election of a black mayor in those cities was not very surprising.`In Los Angeles thousands of white citizens voted for Thomas Bradley because they believe he would be a better mayor than the white candidate. Bradley had spent forty-eight of his fifty-five years in Los Angeles. Four years ago Bradley lost the mayoral election to Yorty. This time Bradley won.61. Thomas Bradley was elected mayor of Los Angeles because______.A) the black people made up a large percentage of the population in the cityB) more than half of its citizens, black and white, were in favor of himC) he had spent forty-eight of his fifty-five years in the cityD) he was considered the best candidate in the history of the city62. Bradley’s victory in the mayoral election attract ed nationwide attention because______ .A) Los Angeles was a major city in the . with a relatively small blackpopulationB) Los Angeles was the place where most of the major . newspapers were basedC) 56% of blacks voters and 44% of white voters in Los Angeles had voted for himD) it had fulfilled the dream of the black people throughout the United States:63. Which of the following cities had the largest percentage of black populationA) Los AngelesB) ClevelandC) GaryD) Newark64. We may infer from the third paragraph that Los Angeles voters ______.A) believed that Thomas Bradley would give them many opportunities to judgehimB) had been given many opportunities so they have a high opinion of ThomasBradleyC) had known Thomas Bradley well for his long years of public service in the cityD) had had many opportunities to elect Thomas Bradley mayor of the city65. Why did the white voters choose Bradley over a white candidate@A) Because he had proved to be a good policemanB) Because they expected him to do a better jobC) Because he held a law degree from a good universityD) Because they simply wanted to give him a chancePassage TwoQuestions 66 to 70 arc based on the following passage:The . generates about four billion tons of solid waste a year. More than 90 percent is composed of agricultural and mining waste. About 3 percent is from industrial wastes. 250 million tons of garbage comes out from homes, schools, office buildings, stores and hospitals.This mass of metals, paper, food, plastic, rubber and glass, which is all mixed together, seems of no earthly use to anyone.Or is it Many efforts across the country indicate that new technology, properly applied, might some day turn these millions of tons of garbage into an excellent source of raw materials for new uses.Several new projects are carried out to study the possibility of treating wastes through pyrolysis-- a system of reducing garbage to basic chemical, liquids and gases which have commercial value. In Florida, a special tube system provides automatic transport of garbage to a central collection building.】In short, many new ideas are being tested, and many will be needed, since no one method is likely to prove suitable everywhere.However, many difficult economic and social questions must be answered before real progress can be made. Can recovered materials compete with new materials What will be needed as encouragement to make resource recovery work Will citizens pay the cost of changing our waste system66. The author suggests that garbage from home and public places______.A) make up the largest portion of solid wasteB) makes up a small portion of solid wasteC) is not really considered as solid wasteD) is considered of no practical value67. Which of the following is closest in meaning to the question “Or is it” inParagraph ThreeA) Or is it true that this mass of solid waste id of no practical use？B) Or is it right to bury all this mass of solid waste under earthC) Or is it wise to mix all this mass of solid waste togetherD) Or is it worthwhile to make so many efforts across the country:68. Pyrolysis(Line 2, is a process which ________.A) treats a large amount of industrial wastesB) turns garbage into a new source of raw materialsC) mixes together different kinds of solid wasteD) provides garbage for a collection building69. Which of the following is true concerning the issue of waste recoveryA) Many new ideas have been adoptedB) The present systems have been widely usedC) Different methods are required in different placesD) No garbage has been proved useful everywhere70. It can be implied from the last paragraph that______,A) great progress has already been made in resource recovery：B) recovered materials will be able to compete with new materialsC) working people in the . have been encouraged to recover solid wasteD) citizens may be unwilling to pay the costs of changing the waste system Passage ThreeQuestions 71 to 75 are based on the following passage:Kate, a student in 8th grade, asked lots of questions in math class---until the teacher told her to stop. “He said I was confusing the other kids with my questions,” she recalls. “When boys asked questions, he took them a lot more seriously.”You might have thought that such obvious forms of discrimination had ended by now. But Esther Greenglass, a psychology professor at York University in Toronto, syas many recent studies have found that girls may still be faced with mixed messages about self-confidence and success, which can lower their self-esteem and discoverage them from achieving their potential.The problem worsens at about age 11 or 12, when girls start hitting puberty(青春期)and discovering boys. Many girls’ grades drop, and so does t heir self-esteem. “Girls get the message that, if you’re going to be popular, you can’t be too smart because the boys won’t like you,” says Greenglass, who has written extensively on sex roles and discrimination.Often, girls also sense that boys are considered more capable. In studies in the United States, researchers found that when teachers asked questions, they almost always made eye contact with boys, unless they had attended courses raising their level of awareness. Adding to the problem, according to Greenglass, is the lack of female role models in old textbooks still found in many Canadian schools.How are girls’ attitudes affected Studies have shown that boys usually attribute their successes to their superior ability, while girls attribute their own success to luck. When boys fail at a task, they tend to blame it on external factors; when girls fail, they blame their own lack of ability. Boys are more likely to try a second time to succeed.]71. The first paragraph intends to tell us that_____A) girls usually ask more questions than boys in classB) girls often confuse teachers with many questionsC) teachers tend to give much more attention to boysD) teachers believe that boys ask more serious questions72. Findings by Professor Esther Greenglass indicate that ________A ) sex discrimination in schools has disappeared in CanadaB) Canadian school girls are more self-confident than boysC) school girls in Canada are confused about their rolesD) in Canada girls and boys achieve equal success at school：73. Researchers in the United States found that when teachers asked questions,______.A) they would first turned to boys for answersB) they wanted to raise the awareness of boysC) boys responded to them immediatelyD) girls avoided eye contact with teachers74. We can learn from the passage that girls’ lack of self-confidence has led to______.A) their misjudgment of their own success and failureB) boys’ misunderstanding of their of their superiorityC) their inability to achieve academic successD) boys’ blaming external factors for their failures相信能就一定能—75. What is the best title of the passage？A) Male and Female Role Models.B) Puberty and Sex Difference.C) Girls, Boys, and Success.D) Sex Roles and Discrimination.Part V Translation from English into Chinese Directions: In this part there is a passage with 5 underlined parts, numbered 76 to 80.After reading the passage carefully, you should translate the underlinedparts into Chinese. Remember to write your translation on the TranslationSheet.(76)In many business, computers have largely replaced paperwork, because they are fast, flexible, and do not make mistakes. As one banker said, “Unlike humans, computers never have a bad day.” And they are hones t. Many banks advertise that their transactions are “un touched by human hands” and therefore safe from human temptation. Obviously, computers have no reason to steal money. But they also have no conscience, and the growing number of computer crimes show they can be used to steal.Computer criminals don’t use guns. (77)And even if they are caught, it is hard to punish them because there are no witness and often no evidence. A computer cannot remember who used it: it simply does what it is told. The head teller at a Salt Lake City bank used a computer to steal more than one and a half million dollars in just four years. No one noticed this theft because she moved the money from one account to another. (78)Each time a customer she had robbed questioned the balance in his account, the teller claimed a computer error, then replaced the missing money from someone else’s account. This person was caught only because she was a drug user. When the police broke up an illegal drug operation, her name was in the records.Some employees use the computer’s power to take revenge on employers they consider unfair. (79)Recently, a large company fired an employee for reasons that involved his personal rather than his professional life. He was its computer-tape librarian. In his last forty days that he was allowed to work for the company, he erased all the company’s computerized records.Most computer criminals have been minor employees. Now police wonder if this is “the tip of the iceberg.” As one official says, “I have the feel ing that there is more crime out there than we are catching. What we are seeing now in all so poorly done. (80) I wonder what the real experts are doing—the ones who really know how a computer works.”#Part VI Translation from Chinese into English Directions:In this part there are five sentences, numbered 81 to 85, in Chinese.Translate these sentences into English on the Translation Sheet.81．我感到喘不过气来；我开窗你会介意吗82．你们应该理论联系实际，培养应用语言的能力。
