Reading Comprehension: ( 30 points)7071Passage 172After the violent earthquake that shook Los Angeles in 1994, 73earthquake scientists had good news to report.. the damage and death toll 74(死亡人数) could have been much worse. More than 60 people died in this 75earthquake. By comparison, an earthquake of similar intensity that shook 76America in 1988 claimed 25,000 victims.77Injuries and deaths were relatively less in Los Angeles because the 78quake occurred at 4:31 a.m. on a holiday, when traffic was light on the 79city’s highways. In addition, chang es made to the construction codes 80in Los Angeles during the last 20 years have strengthened the city’s buildings and highways, making them more-resistant to quakes.8182Despite the good news, civil engineers aren’t resting on theirsuccesses. Pinned to their drawing boards are blueprints （蓝图）forimproved quake-resistant buildings. The new designs should offer even greater security to cities where earthquakes often take place. In the past, making structures quake-resistant meant firm yet flexible materials, such as steel and woods,that bend without breaking. Later, people tried to lift a building odd its foundation, and insert rubber and steel between the building and its foundation to reduce the impact of ground vibrations. The most recent design give buildings brains as well as concrete and steel supports, called smart buildings, the structures respond like living organisms to an earthquake vibrations. When the ground shakes and the building tips forward, the computer would force the building to shift in the opposite direction. The new smart structures could be very expensive to build. However, they would save lives and would be less likely to be damaged during earthquakes.1. One reason why the loss of lives in the Los Angeles earthquake was comparatively low is that_____D______.A.new computers had been installed in the buildingsB.it occurred in the residential areas rather than on the highwaysC.large numbers of Los Angeles residents had gone for a holiday装订线107D.improvements had been made in 108the construction of buildings and highways1092.The function of the computer 110mentioned in the passage is to_____A_____.111A.counterbalance an 112earthquake’s action on the building113B.predict the coming of an 114earthquake with accuracyC.help strengthen the 115116foundation of the building117D.measure the impact of an 118earthquake’s vibrations1193.The smart buildings discussed 120in the passage____B______.A.would cause serious financial 121122problems123B.would be worthwhile thoughcostly124125C.would increase the complexity 126of architectural designD.can reduce the ground 127128vibrations caused by earthquakes129Passage 2130The appeal of advertising to buying motives can have both negative 131132and positive effects. Consumers may be convinced to buy a product of poor quality or high price because of an advertisement. For example, some 133134advertisers have appealed to people’s desire for better fuel economy 135for their cars by advertising automotive products that improve gasoline mileage(英里数). Some of the products work. Others are worthless and a 136137waste of consumer’s money.138Sometimes advertising is intentionally misleading. A few years agoa brand of bread was offered to dieters(节食者) with the message that 139140there were fewer calories(热量单位，大卡) in every slice. It turned out 141that the bread was not dietetic(适合于节食的), but just regular bread. 142There were fewer calories because it was sliced very thin, but there were 143the same number of calories in every loaf.144On the positive side, emotional appeals may respond to a consumer’s real concerns. Consider fire insurance. Fire insurance may be sold by 145146appealing to fear of loss. But fear of loss is the real reason for fire 147insurance. The security of knowing that property is protected by 148insurance makes the purchase of fire insurance a worthwhile investment 149for most people. If consumers consider the quality of the insurance plans 150as well as the message in the ads, they will benefit from the advertising. 151Each consumer must evaluate her or his own situation. Are the benefits 152of the product important enough to justify buying it? Advertising is 153intended to appeal to consumers, but it does not force them to buy theproduct. Consumers still control the final buying decision.1541554.Advertising can persuade the consumer to buy worthless 156products by______C_________.A.maintaining a balance between quality and price157158B.convincing him of their low price159C.appealing to his buying motives160D.stressing their high quality1615.The reason why the bread advertisement is misleading is 162that_______A_________.163A.the total number of calories in the loaf remained the same 164B.thin slices of bread could contain more calories165C.the loaf was cut into regular slices166D.the bread was not genuine bread1676.The passage tells us that__________C___________.168A.Advertisements occasionally force consumers into buying 169things they don’t need170B.The buying motives of consumers are controlled by 171advertisementsC.Sometimes advertisements really sell what the consumer needs 172173D.Fire insurance is seldom a worthwhile investment1747.It can be inferred from the passage that a smart consumer 175should _______B_________.176A.be familiar with various advertising strategies177B.think carefully about the benefits described in the 178advertisements179C.guard against the deceiving nature(欺骗性) of advertisements 180D.avoid buying products that have strong emotional appeal 181182Passage 3183I love traveling in the countryside, bu t I don’t like losing my way. 184I went on a trip recently, but my trip took me longer than I expected. 185“I’m going to Woodford Green,” I said to the conductor as I got on 186the bus, “but I don’t know where it is.”187“I’ll tell you where to get off,” answer the co nductor.188I sat in the front of the bus to get a good view of the countryside. 189After some time, the bus stopped. Looking around, I realized with a shock 190that I was the only passenger left on the bus.191“You’ll have to get off there,” the conductor said. “This is as 192far as we go.”“Is this Woodford Green?” I asked.193194“Oh, dear,” said the conductor suddenly. “I forgot to put you off.”“It doesn’t matter,” I said. “I’ll get off here.”195196“We are going back now,” said the conductor.197“Well, in that case, I would prefer to stay on the bus,” I answered.1988.
