阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
People are making more and more demands on the world's natural resources. If babies born in 1991 live for eighty years, the human population of the world may be anything from twice to three times the present total by 2070. In other words, they will have to share what is left of the earth's resources with 15 billion other people. But hopefully there will be an important decrease in the growth of population. What if this does not happen? The answer is that by the time before the babies born in 1991 reach the age of 40 they could be sharing resources with as many as 10 billion other people.
Limiting the pollution of water and the atmosphere, controlling the output of the chemicals that may be causing the global warming and climate change, and eating less meat may go some to help, but can anyone seriously imagine that these are going to solve the problems of the "baby class" of 1991?
There is no getting away from the fact that people are responsible(对……负责) for the present state of the world, and only people can solve the problems. The decisions have to be taken by people as members of national and local governments; as leaders and decision-makers in industry; as scientists and technologists; as professional engineers and designers; as religous(宗教的) leaders and individual citizens.
56. Which of the following can be the best title of the passage?
A. Making More Demands on the Natural Resources
B. Limiting the Pollution of Air and Water
C. Reducing the World Population
D. Saving the Babies of 1991
57. What does the author mean by "the problems of the 'baby class' of 1991"?
A. A large number of babies will be born after 1991.
B. Babies born in 1991 won't live a long life.
C. The children of 1991 are not given good education.
D. The problems caused by babies born in 1991.
58. This short passage is probably taken from __________.
A. a news report
B. a guide to the world
C. an article by a medical worker
D. a government report
59. Which of the following is NOT mentioned in the last paragraph as people responsible for the present state of the world?
A. Officials. B. Industrialists.
C. Businessmen. D. Scientists.
B
The failed Skylab will come screaming home to earth in disappointment sometime next month, but we don't know where it will fall.
That information is beyond even the calculations(计算) of scientists and their computers. The best they can tell us is that the space station, weighing 77 tons and as high as a 12-story building, will break into hundreds of pieces that will be scattered across a track 100 miles wide and 4,000 miles long. We are again exposed to one of those unexpected adventures, or misadventures, of science that attracts our attention from the boring routines of daily existence and encourages us to think a lot about man's future.
What worries Richard Smith, the Skylab’s director, is the "big pieces" that will come through the atmosphere. Two lumps, weighing 2 tons each, and ten, weighing at least 1,000 pounds each, will come in at speeds of hundreds of miles an hour, arid if they crash on land they will dig holes up to 100 feet deep.
What worries us, with our lack of scientific knowledge and our quick imagination, is both the big and little pieces, although project officials say there is a very small chance that anyone will be injured by them.
That's good to know, but it doesn’ t remove the doubts of the millions who still remember the nuclear accident at Three Mile Island. That accident took place in 1979 in spite of what the officials had assured us as to the safety of the nuclear reactor.
60. According to the passage, what does an incident such as the failed Skylab make us do?
A. Not believe in officials B. Trust computers more.
C. Think about our future. D. Fear for our lives.
61. The author suggests that __________.
A. the danger of the Skylab's fall has been overestimated(过高估计)
B. it's useless to worry over things you can t do anything about
C. computers can solve the problem caused by the broken Skylab
D. the danger or the Skylab's fall has been underestimated
62. The author refers to Three Mile Island ____________.
A. because he fears that a piece of the Skylab may strike a nuclear power plant
B. because he is doubtful about what the officials said
C. because he is afraid of the use of nuclear power
D. because the nuclear reactor there and the Skylab were both built by the same company
63. The main point of the passage is the author's __________.
A. interest in the failure of the Skylab
B. willingness to give his advice
C. worry that science cannot answer all questions
D. eagerness to see more new scientific discoveries
C

The medical world is gradually realizing that the quality of the environment in hospitals may play an important role in the process(过程) of recovery from illness.
As part of a nationwide effort in Britain to bring art out of the galleries (陈列室) and into public places, some of the country's best-known artists have been called in to transform older hospitals and to soften the hard edges of modern buildings. Of the 2,500 National Health Service hospitals in Britain, almost 100 now have precious collections of contemporary(当代的) art in corridors, waiting areas and treatment rooms.
These recent initiatives owe a great deal to one artist, Peter Senior, who set up his studio at a Manchester hospital in northeastern England during the early 1970s. He felt the artist had lost his place in modern society and that art should be enjoyed by a wider audience.
A typical hospital waiting room might have as many as 5,000 visitors each week. What better place to hold regular exhibitions of art? Senior held the first exhibition of his own paintings in the out-patients waiting area of the Manchester Hospital in 1975. Believed to he Britain's first hospital artist, Senior was so much in demand that he was soon joined by a team of six young art school graduates.
The effect is striking. Now in the corridors and waiting rooms the visitor experiences a full view or fresh colours, playful images and restful courtyards.
The quality of the environment may reduce the need for expensive drugs when a patient is recovering from an illness. A study has shown that patients who had a view onto a garden needed half the number of strong pain killers compared with patients who had no view at all or only brick wall to look at.
67. We learn that Peter Senior is ___________.
A. a doctor interested in arts
B. an artist who refuses to hold art exhibitions in hospitals
C. a pioneer in introducing art into hospitals
D. an artist who owns a great deal of property(财产)
68. According to Peter Senior, we can infer that __________.
A. modern hospitals have lost a lot of patients
B. art is not enjoyed by a large number of people in modern society
C. patients should be encouraged to learn painting
D. artists can not find their positions in modern society
69. Six young art school graduates joined Peter Senior because ________.
A. they saw Peter Senior's idea was very exciting
B. Peter Senior needed artists more talented than him
C. they wanted to enjoy Peter Senior's popularity
D. more and more hospitals needed artists to improve their environment
70. The underlined word (in paragraph 3) means ___________.
A. spirit of creation B. discoveries
C. experiments D. inventions
E
Taste is such a subjective(主观的) matter that we don't usually carry out preference tests for food. The most you say about anyone's preference is that it's one person's opinion. But because the two big cola companies - Coca-Cola and Pepsi Cola are marketed so aggressively(气势逼人)，we’ve wondered how big a role taste preference actually plays in the choice of brand. We up a taste test that challenged people who identified(确认) themselves as either Coca-Cola or Pepsi fans: Find your brand in a blind tasting. We invited staff volunteers who had a strong liking for either Coca-Cola Classic or Pepsi, Diet Coke or Diet Pepsi. These were people who thought they'd have no trouble telling their brand from the other brand.
We at last located 19 regular cola drinkers and 27 diet cola drinkers. Then we fed them four unidentified samples(样品) of cola one at a time, regular colas for the one group, diet versions for the other. We asked them to tell us whether each sample was Coke or Pepsi; then we analyzed(分析) the records to compare the participants' (参加者) choices with what mere guesswork could have achieved.
Getting all four samples right was a tough test, but not too tough, we thought, for people who believed they could recognize their brand. In the end, only 7 out of 19 regular cola drinkers correctly identified their brand of choice in all four trials. The diet-cola drinkers did a little worse only 7 out of 27 identified all four samples correctly.
While both groups did better than chance would predict, nearly half the partcipants in each group make the wrong choice two or more times. Two people got all four samples wrong. Over all, half the participants did about as well on the last round of tasting as on the first, so tiredness, or taste burnout, was not a factor. Our preference test results suggest that only a few Pepsi participants and Coke fans may really be able to tell their favorite brand by taste and price.
71. According to the passage the preference test was given in order to ________.
A. find out the role taste preference plays in a person’s drinking
B. reveal which cola is more to the liking of the drinkers
C. show that a person's opinion about taste is mere guesswork
D. compare the ability of the participants in choosing their drinks
72. The records in the preference tests show __________.
A. Coca-Cola and Pepsi are people's two most favorite drinks
B. there is not much difference in taste between Coca-Cola and Pepsi
C. few people had trouble telling Coca-Cola from Pepsi
D. people’s tastes differ from one another
73. It is implied(暗示) in the first paragraph that __________.
A. the purpose of taste tests is to promote the sale of colas
B. the improvement of quality is the chief concern of the two cola companies
C. the competition between the two colas is very strong
D. blind tasting is necessary for identifying fans
74. The word "burnout" (in Paragraph 4) here refers to the state of _________.
A. being seriously burnt in the skin
B. being unable to burn for lack of fuel
C. being badly damaged by fire
D. being unable to work because of extreme use
75. The author's purpose in writing this passage is to __________.
A. show that taste preference is highly subjective
B. argue that taste testing is an important marketing planning
C. explain that taste and price are closely related to each other
D. suggest that blind tasting be introduced in the quality control of colas

第四部分 第一小题（情景作文）
One possible version:
Dear Tom,
I would like to give my opinion about being on the Internet.
More and more middle school students here are starting using the Internet, through which they can get a great deal of the latest information. They can enjoy lessons given by the best teachers of net-schools at home. And it is easy and convenient to keep in touch with friends by sending and receiving e-mails.
On the other hand, some students have spent too much time chatting and playing games on the net. And there is still something harmful to the students.
At last, I suggest that students should be good at using the Internet for their studies and not be on line for long.
Yours,
Li Hua

You ask me about my hometown, so now I'd like to tell you something about it. I live in Brighton which is not a very big town. It has a population of around 300, 000. It is on the coast about 50 miles from London. Of course it isn’t as interesting as London or Paris. Bui the air is a lot cleaner and better. There is little pollution here. There are a few factories in Brighton, not many. It isn’t very easy to find a job there. My father used to work in a steel plant which shut down a year ago and my father lost his job. But there are a lot of hotels and language schools in the town. In summer the town is full of travelers. My father has decided to open a small shop to sell gifts. But he is short of money. He hopes that he can borrow some money from the bank.
