This passage mainly(主要的)tells us ________.A. something about Hong Ko ng’s beaches and swimming thereB. that swimming in Hong Kong’s is dangerousC. that Hong Kong has many best beaches in the worldD. it is not easy to go swimming in Hong KongBChina is a country with the largest population in the world. At present(现在),the population of China is growing faster and faster. But in the past, our country's population developed slowly. It was recorded (记载) that in 1746 our population was only 200,000,000, in 1840 it was about 400,000,000 and in 1949 it became 540,000,000.After liberation, the population of our country developed quickly. In 1953, our population was 600,000,000. In 1969, it was 800,000,000. In 1985, it reached 1,000,000,000. On July 1st, 1990, it was reported that our country's population was over 1,160,000,000. But now, it has already added to(增加) 1,200,000,000. The present population is two times(倍)as many as that in 1953. It adds to 660,000,000 more than that in 1949. By the end of the twentieth century, the number will be able to add to over a hundred million. At that time, the world’s popula tion will be over 6,000,000,000.Today the population problem may be the greatest one of the world. Man must make the earth support(养活)more people ,but there won't be enough space for everybody and the earth can't hold so many people. So we must do something to stop the population from growing quickly.21.What was the population of our country in 1985? __________.A. A hundred millionB. A thousand billionC. A billionD. A million22.How many times is the present population as many as that in 1953? It is___.A. 4 timesB. 2.5 timesC. 3 timesD. 2 times23.Which of the following isn't true?_______________.A. Now, our country’s population is 1,200,000,000.B. The present population is three times as many as that in 1840.C. In 1985, our population was a billion.D. Before liberation, our country's population developed quickly.24.By the end of the 20th century, our country's population will be__________.A. over 1,160,000,000B. over 1,300,000,000C. over 1,200,000,000D. over 600,000,00025.Why do we stop the population from growing quickly? _____________.A. Because there isn’t much food on the earth.B. Because there won’t be enough space for everybody.C. Because there are many houses to live in.D. Because there is no water to drink.(D)Now satellites are helping to forecast(预报)the weather. They are in space, and they can reach any part of the world. The satellites take pictures of the atmosphere (大气), because this is where the weather forms(形成).They send these pictures to the weather stations. So meteorologists(气象学家)can see the weather of any part of the world. From the pictures, the scientists can often tell how the weather will change.Today, nearly five hundred weather stations in sixty countries receive satellite pictures. When they receive new pictures, the meteorologists compare(比较)them with earlier ones. Perhaps they may find that the clouds have changed during the last few hours. This may mean that the weather on the ground may soon change, too. In their next weather forecast, the meteorologists can say this.So the weather satellites are a great help to the meteorologists. Before satellites were invented, the scientists could forecast the weather for about 24 or 48 hours. Now they can make good forecasts for three or five days. soon, perhaps, they may be able to forecast the weather for a week or more ahead(前).26.Satellites travel____________.A. in spaceB. in the atmosphereC. above the groundD. above space27.Why do we use the weather satellites to take pictures of the atmosphere? Because____________.A. the weather satellites can do it easilyB. clouds from thereC. the weather forms thereD. the pictures can forecast the weather28.Meteorologists forecast the weather_______________.A. when they have received satellite picturesB. after they have compared new satellite pictures with earlier onesC. before they receive satellite picturesD. during they study satellite pictures29.Maybe we’ll soon be able to forecast the weather for_____________.A. one dayB. two daysC. five daysD. seven days or even longer30.The main idea of this passage is that satellites are now used in________.A. taking pictures of the atmosphereB. receiving pictures of the atmosphere.C. doing other work in many waysD. weather forecastingThere are three separate sources of danger in supplying energy by nuclear power (原子能)First, the radioactive material must travel from its place of production to the power station. Although the power stations themselves are strongly built, the containers used for the transport of the materials are not. Normally, only two methods of transport are in use, namely road or rail. Unfortunately, both of these may have an effect on the general public, since they are sure to pass near, or even through, heavily populated areas.Second, there is the problem of waste. All nuclear power stations produce wastes that in most cases will remain radioactive for thousands of years. It is impossible to make these wastes nonradioactive, and so they must be stored in one of the inconvenient ways that scientists have invented. For example, they may be buried under the ground, or dropped into deserted mines, or sunk in the sea. However, these methods do not solve the problem, since an earthquake could easily break the containers.Third, there may occur the danger of a leak(泄漏) or an explosion at the power station. As with the other two dangers, this is not very likely, so it does not provide a serious objection to the nuclear program. However, it can happen.Separately, these three types of dangers are not a great cause for worry. Taken together, though, the probability of disaster(灾难) is extremely high.16. Which of the following is FALSE?A. It is possible that a leak or an explosion occurs at a power station.B. It is unusual for radioactive materials to be transported across land.C. The containers are likely to be broken by an earthquake.D. Nuclear wastes remain dangerous in most cases for many years.17. The author thinks that the ways to store nuclear wastes are ＿＿＿.A. easyB. impossibleC. reasonableD. ineffective18. What do we learn from the last paragraph?A. The power station is a safe place.B. The dangers of nuclear energy can be prevented.C. The general public are strongly against the nuclear program.D. By itself, none of the three dangers is very likely to cause much worry.19. What is this passage about?A. Uses of nuclear power.B. Dangers from nuclear power.C. Public anger at nuclear power.D. Accidents caused by nuclear power.20. This advertisement is mainly about ＿＿＿ .A. a seven-day trip to Costa RicaB. Briar Wood Travel AgencyC. environmental protectionD. different means of transportPart III 词汇和语法（本题共50分，每题1分）从A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出最佳答案划在答题纸的相应位置上31.Paul doesn't have to be made.He always works hard.A. learnB. to learnC. learnedD. learning32.─Your phone number again?
