16、of them there are four choices markedA), B), C) and D ). You are required to choose the bestanswer from the four choices. Then mark thecorresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single linethrough the centre.Questions 16 to 20 are based on the following passage,Increasingly, over the past ten y
17、ears, people havebecome aware of the need to change their eating habits,because much of the food they eat is not good for the health.Consequently, there has been a growing interest in naturalfoods: foods which do not contain chemical additives (,JlJ) and which have not been affected by chemical fert
18、ilizers.Natural foods have been grown in soil that is rich inorganic (;/PIJ) matter. In simple terms, this means thatthe soil has been nourished by unused vegetable matter,which provides it with essential vitamins and minerals.Natural foods also include animals which have beenallowed to feed and mov
19、e freely in healthy pastures (t).Compare this with what happens in the mass production ofpoultry: there are battery farms, for example, wherethousands of chickens live crowded together in one buildingand are fed on food which is little better than rubbish.Chickens kept in this way are not only taste
20、less as food;they also produce eggs which lack important vitamins.There are other aspects of healthy eating which are nowreceiving increasing attention from experts on diet. Take thequestion of sugar for example, although a naturalalternative, such as honey, can be used to sweeten food ifthis is nec
21、essary, we can in fact do without it. It is not thatsugar is harmful in itself. But it does seem to be addictive:the quantity we use has grown steadily over the last twocenturies and in Britain today each person consumes anaverage of 200 pounds a year!It is significant that nowadays fiber is conside
22、red to bean important part of a healthy diet. In white bread, forexamples, the fiber has been removed. But it is present inunrefined flour and of course in vegetables. It is interestingto note that in countries where the national diet containslarge quantities of unrefined flour and vegetables, certa
23、indiseases are comparatively rare. Hence the emphasis isplaced on the eating of unrefined bread and more vegetablesby modern experts on “healthy eating“. 16. People have become more interested in natural foodsbecauseA. they are more health consciousB. they want to taste all kinds of foodsC. natural
24、foods are more delicious than processedfoodsD. they want to return to nature 17. Soil that is rich in organic matterA. has had chemicals and fertilizers added to itB. contains vegetable matter that has not been consumedC. has been nourished by fertilizersD. already contains large quantities of vitam
25、ins andminerals 18. Which is NOT true of the chickens raised in poultryfarms?A. They are fed on food which is little better thangarbage.B. They live in very crowded condition.C. The eggs they produce lack vitamins.D. They are allowed to move about and eat freely. 19. According to the passage,A. peop
26、le need sugar to give them energy13. sugar is had for the healthC. the use of sugar is habit formingD. sugar only sweetens food, but provides us withnothing useful 20. The best title for this passage isA. Peoples Growing Interest in Natural FoodsB. Natural Foods and A Healthy DietC. Harmful Effects
27、of SugarD. The Importance of Fiber in FoodsQuestions 21 to 25 are based on the following passage.Long after the 1998 World Cup was won, disappointedfans were still cursing the disputed refereeing ( lJ)decisions that denied victory to their team. A researcher wasappointed to study the performance of
28、some top referees. The researcher organized an experimental tournament(t/flJ) involving four youth teams. Each match lasted anhour, divided into three periods of 20 minutes during whichdifferent referees were in charge.Observers noted down the referees errors, of whichthere were 61 over the tourname
29、nt. Converted to a standardmatch of 90 minutes, each referee made almost 23 mistakes,a remarkably high number.The researcher then studied the videotapes to analyzethe matches in detail. Surprisingly, he found that errorswere more likely when the referees were close to theincident. When the officials
30、 got it right, they were, onaverage, 17 meters away from the action. The averagedistance in the case of errors was 12 meters. The researchshows the optimum (l) distance is about 20 meters.There also seemed to be an optimum speed. Correctdecisions came when the referees were moving at a speed ofabout
31、 2 meters per second. The average speed for errors was4 meters per second.If FIFA, footballs international ruling body, wants toimprove the standard of refereeing at the next World Cup, itshould encourage referees to keep their eyes on the actionfrom a distance, rather than rushing to keep up with t
32、heball, the researcher argues.He also says that FIFAs insistence that referees shouldretire at age 45 may be misguided. If keeping up with theaction is not so important, their physical condition is lesscritical. 21. The experiment conducted by the researcher was meanttoA. review the decisions of ref
33、erees at the 1998World CupB. analyze the causes of errors made by footballrefereesC. set a standard for football refereeingD. re-examine the rules for football refereeing 22. The number of refereeing errors in the experimentalmatches wasA. slightly above averageB. higher than in the 1998 World CupC.
34、 quite unexpectedD. as high as in a standard match 23. The findings of the experiment show thatA. errors are more likely when a referee keeps closeto the ballB. the farther the referee is from the incident, thefewer the errorsC. the more slowly the referee runs, the more likelywill errors occurD. er
35、rors are less likely when a referee stays in onespot 24. The word “officials“ (Line 4, Para. 4) most probablyrefers toA. the researchers involved in the experiment.B. the inspectors of the football tournamentC. the referees of the football tournamentD. the observers at the site of the experiment 25.
36、 What is one of the possible conclusions of the experiment?A. The ideal retirernem age for an experienced footballreferee is 45.B. Age should not be the chief consideration inchoosing a football referee.C. A football referee should be as young and energeticas possible.D. An experienced football refe
37、ree can do well evenwhen in poor physical condition.Questions 26 to 30 are based on the following passage.Drunken driving-sometimes called Americas sociallyaccepted form of murderhas become a national epidemic(/). Every hour of every day about three Americanson average are killed by drunken drivers,
38、 adding up to anincredible 250,000 over the past decade.A drunken driver is usually defined as one with a 0. 10blood alcohol content or roughly three beers, glasses ofwine or shots of whisky drunk within two hours. Heavydrinking used to be an acceptable part of the Americanmacho(-) image and judges
39、were lenient in mostcourts, but the drunken slaughter has recently caused somany well-publicized tragedies, especially involving youngchildren, that public opinion is no longer so tolerant.Twenty states have raised the legal drinking age to 21,reversing a trend in the 1960s to reduce it to 18. After
40、 NewJersey lowered it to 18, the number of people killed by 18-20-year-old drivers more than doubled, so the state recentlyupped it back to 21.Reformers, however, fear raising the drinking age willhave little effect unless accompanied by educationalprograms to help young people to develop “responsib
41、le;: attitudes“ about drinking and teach them to resist peer! pressure to drink.New laws have led to increased arrests and tests and inmany areas already, to a marked decline in fatalities. Somestates are also penalizing bars for serving customers toomany drinks. A tavern in Massachusetts was fined
42、forserving six or more double brandies to a customer who was“obviously intoxicated“ and later drove off the road, killinga nine-year-old boy.As the fatalities continue to occur daily in every state,some Americans are even beginning to speak well of the 13years national prohibition of alcohol that be
43、gan in 1919,which President Hoover called “noble experiment“. Theyforget that legal prohibition didnt stop drinking, butencouraged political corruption and organized crime. Aswith the booming drug trade generally, there is no easysolution. 26. It can be inferred from the passage that drunkendriving
44、has become a major problem in the UnitedStates becauseA. most Americans like drinkingB. heavy drinking is an epidemicC. many Americans are killed by traffic accidentsD. Americans are not shocked by traffic accidents 27. What can be inferred from the traffic accidentstatistics in New Jersey?A. Young
45、drivers were usually bad.B. The legal drinking age should be raised.C. Some drivers did not surpass the legal drinkingage.D. Drivers should not be allowed to drink. 28. The italicized word “lenient“ in the second paragraphmost probably meansA. benevolent B. strictC. moderate D. violent 29. As regard
46、s drunken driving, public opinion haschanged becauseA. judges are no longer lenientI3. new laws are introduced in some statesC. drivers are more aware of their macho imageD. the problem of drunken slaughter has attractedpublic attention 30. Which of the following statements best reflects theauthors
47、opinion of drunken driving?A. It is difficult to solve this problem.B. It may lead to organized crime.C. Legal prohibition can stop heavy drinking.D. There should be no bars to serve drinks.Questions 31 to 35are based on the following passage.Americans are proud of their variety and individuality,ye
48、t they love and respect few things more than a uniform,whether it is the uniform of an elevator operator or theuniform of a five-star general. Why are uniforms so popularin the United States?Among the arguments for uniforms, one of the first isthat in the eyes of most people they look more professio
49、nalthan civilian ( i E fJ ) clothes. People have becomeconditioned to expect superior quality from a man who wearsa uniform. The television repairman who wears a uniformtends to inspire more trust than one who appears in civilianclothes. Faith in the skill of a garage mechanic is increasedby a uniform
