Questions 21 to 25 are based on the following passage:
The struggle against malnutrition(营养不良)and hunger is as old as man himself,and never across the face of our planet has the outcome been more in doubt.Malnutrition afflicts an estimated 400 million to 1.5 billion of the world's poor.Even in the affluent U.S.,poverty means undernourishment for an estimated ten to twenty million.Hardest hit are children.whose growing bodies demand two and a half times more protein,than those of adults.Nutrition experts estimate that 70 percent of the children in low-income countries are affected. Misshapen bodies tell the tragic story of malnutrition.Medical science identifies two major types of malnutrition which usually occur in combination.The first,kwashiorkor,is typified by the bloated (look,the opposite of what we associate with starvation.Accumulated fluids pushing against wasted muscles account for the plumpness of hands,feet,belly and face.Caused by an acute lack of protein,kwashiorkor can bring brain damage,irritability,loss of appetite and so on On the other hand,stick limbs,a bloated belly,wide eyes,and the stretched-skin face of an old person mark victims of marasmus,a word taken from the Greek "to waste away".Lacking calories as well as protein,sufferers may weigh only half as much as normal.With fat gone,the skin hangs in wrinkles or draws tight over bones.Children,those growing bodies require large amounts of protein,are afflicted in greatest numbers,but perhaps only three percent of all child victims suffer the extreme stages described. Scientists are working hard to develop new weapons against malnutrition and starvation. But two thirds of the human population of 3.9 billion live in the poorest countries which also have the highest birth rates.Thus,of the 74 million people added to the population each year,four out of five will be born in a have-not country---a country unable to supply its people's nutritional needs 21.Malnutrition is A.not as serious as before B.as serious as before C.more serious than before D.inclined to be less serious 22.The phrase "waste away"(Line 2,Para.3)means A.become thinner B.lose C.misshape D.under-nourish
4 The struggle against malnutrition (营养不良) and hunger is as old as man himself, and never across the face of our planet has the outcome been more in doubt. Malnutrition afflicts (折 磨) an estimated 400 million to 1.5 billion of the world’s poor. Even in the affluent U.S., poverty means undernourishment for an estimated ten to twenty million. Hardest hit are children, whose growing bodies demand two and a half times more protein, than those of adults. Nutrition experts estimate that 70 percent of the children in low-income countries are affected. Misshapen bodies tell the tragic story of malnutrition. Medical science identifies two major types of malnutrition which usually occur in combination. The first, kwashiorkor, is typified by the bloated（肿胀的） look, the opposite of what we associate with starvation. Accumulated fluids pushing against wasted muscles account for the plumpness of hands, feet, belly and face. Caused by an acute lack of protein, kwashiorkor can bring brain damage, irritability, loss of appetite and so on. On the other hand, stick limbs, a bloated belly, wide eyes, and the stretched-skin face of an old person mark victims of marasmus, a word taken from the Greek “to waste away”. Lacking calories as well as protein, sufferers may weigh only half as much as normal. With fat gone, the skin hangs in wrinkles or draws tight over bones. Children, those growing bodies require large amounts of protein, are afflicted in greatest numbers, but perhaps only three percent of all child victims suffer the extreme stages described. Scientists are working hard to develop new weapons against malnutrition and starvation. But two thirds of the human population of 3.9 billion live in the poorest countries which also have the highest birth rates. Thus, of the 74 million people added to the population each year, four out of five will be born in a have-not country---a country unable to supply its people’s nutritional needs. 21. Malnutrition is ___________. A. not as serious as before B. as serious as before C. more serious than before D. inclined to be less serious 22. The phrase “waste away” (Line 2, Para.3) means____________. A. become thinner B. lose C. misshape D. under-nourish
23.Which of the following statements is NOT mentioned in the passage? A.The majority of children suffer the most serious stages of marasmus. B.Malnutrition has afflicted millions of people all over the world. C.Both types of malnutrition are caused by lack of protein. D.The struggle against malnutrition has a long history. 24.It can be inferred from the passage that the struggle against malnutrition is A.certain to succeed B.likely to succeed C.certain to fail D.hard to succeed 25.All the conclusions the writer makes are correct EXCEPT A.Malnutrition is a serious global problem. B.The high rate of population growth is irresponsible for malnutrition. C.Scientists are working hard to cope with the food problem. D.Children suffer most because they need more protein than adults. Questions 26 to 27 are based on the following passage: One of the most exciting attempts to find the source of the Mississippi was made by the Italian Constantino Beltrami.Aged4l,in Italy he had been a magistrate(地方法官)and student of the classic.In the New World,however.he was interested in exploration-not so much for reasons of scientific curiosity but in response to romantic dreams nourished by literary and mythological study.Setting out from St.Louis in 1823,he traveled as far as Fort Snelling by boat and then proceeded up river by canoe,accompanied by three Indians.The journey was an adventurous one.On August 23,1823,Beltrami came to a small lake in what is now northern Minnesota,which he called Lake Julia in memory of a woman he had loved,and which he proclaimed to be the source of the Mississippi.His romantic self-comparison to Icarus,the Phoenicians,Marco Polo and Columbus,however,was not calculated to satisfy geographers,for he had no compass with which to determine his location.When he returned to New Orleans,he related his travels and as a result,he was welcomed in Europe and became a member of several academies,while Lafayette and Chateaubriand honored him with their friendship.In America,on J

Questions 26 to 27 are based on the following passage: One of the most exciting attempts to find the source of the Mississippi was made by the Italian Constantino Beltrami. Aged 41, in Italy he had been a magistrate (地方法官) and student of the classic. In the New World, however, he was interested in exploration—not so much for reasons of scientific curiosity but in response to romantic dreams nourished by literary and mythological study. Setting out from St. Louis in 1823, he traveled as far as Fort Snelling by boat and then proceeded up river by canoe, accompanied by three Indians. The journey was an adventurous one. On August 23, 1823, Beltrami came to a small lake in what is now northern Minnesota, which he called Lake Julia in memory of a woman he had loved, and which he proclaimed to be the source of the Mississippi. His romantic self-comparison to Icarus, the Phoenicians, Marco Polo and Columbus, however, was not calculated to satisfy geographers, for he had no compass with which to determine his location. When he returned to New Orleans, he related his travels and as a result, he was welcomed in Europe and became a member of several academies, while Lafayette and Chateaubriand honored him with their friendship.

6 the other hand, many regarded him as an imposter（冒名顶替的人）. Nine years after Beltrami, Henry Rowe Schoolcraft, the United States Superintendent(负责人) of Indian Affairs proclaimed “Itasca”--- a lake in Minnesota—the true source of the Mississippi. His claim that Lake Itasca was the source of the Mississippi was accepted for many years, but many geologists now disagree. Accurate recent surveys show that a spring flows into it from Elk Lake, and that this in turn is linked with yet other lakes, which may be collectively regarded as the source of the great river. 26.

The Mystery of the Mississippi. D. The Description of the Mississippi. Questions 31 to 35 are based on the following passage: Every second, one hectare of the world’s rainforest is destroyed. That’s equivalent to two football fields. An area the size of New York City is lost every day. In a year, that adds up to 31
million hectares-more than the land area of Poland.This alarming rate of destruction has serious consequences for the environment;scientists estimate,for example,that 137 species of plant, insect or animal become extinct every day due to logging ()In British Columbia,where, since 1990.13 rainforest valleys have been clear cut.142 species of salmon have already become extinct,and the habitats of grizzly(bears,wolves and many other creatures are threatened. Logging,however,provides jobs,profits,taxes for the government and cheap products of all kinds for consumers,so the government is reluctant to restrict or control it. Much of Canadian forestry production goes towards making pulp()and paper. According to the Canadian Pulp and Paper Association,Canada supplies 34%of the world's wood pulp and 49%of its newsprint paper.If these paper products could be produced in some other way, Canadian forests could be preserved.Recently,a possible alternative way of producing paper has been suggested by agriculturalists and environmentalists:a plant called hemp(). Hemp has been cultivated by many cultures for thousands of years.It produces fibre which can be made into paper,fuel,oils,textiles,food,and rope.For many centuries,it was essential to the economies of many countries because it was used to make the ropes and cables used on sailing ships:colonial expansion and the establishment of a world-wide trading network would not have been possible without hemp.Nowadays,ships'cables are usually made from wire or synthetic fibers,but scientists are now suggesting that the cultivation of hemp should be revived for the production of paper and pulp.According to its proponents,four times as much paper can be produced from land using hemp rather than trees,and many environmentalists believe that the large-scale cultivation of hemp could reduce the pressure on Canada's forests. 31.How long does it take for 300 hectares of rainforest to be destroyed? A.One minute. B.Two minutes. C.Three minutes. D.Five minutes. 32.The following are the reasons why logging is hard to control EXCEPT that A.it provides taxes for the country B.it offers extrajobs C.it supplies people with cheap products D.it leads to the erosion of the land 33.Why is pulp and paper production important in Canada? 个
7 million hectares—more than the land area of Poland. This alarming rate of destruction has serious consequences for the environment; scientists estimate, for example, that 137 species of plant, insect or animal become extinct every day due to logging (砍伐). In British Columbia, where, since 1990, 13 rainforest valleys have been clear cut, 142 species of salmon have already become extinct, and the habitats of grizzly(灰的) bears, wolves and many other creatures are threatened. Logging, however, provides jobs, profits, taxes for the government and cheap products of all kinds for consumers, so the government is reluctant to restrict or control it. Much of Canadian forestry production goes towards making pulp( 纸浆) and paper. According to the Canadian Pulp and Paper Association, Canada supplies 34% of the world’s wood pulp and 49% of its newsprint paper. If these paper products could be produced in some other way, Canadian forests could be preserved. Recently, a possible alternative way of producing paper has been suggested by agriculturalists and environmentalists: a plant called hemp(大麻). Hemp has been cultivated by many cultures for thousands of years. It produces fibre which can be made into paper, fuel, oils, textiles, food, and rope. For many centuries, it was essential to the economies of many countries because it was used to make the ropes and cables used on sailing ships; colonial expansion and the establishment of a world-wide trading network would not have been possible without hemp. Nowadays, ships’ cables are usually made from wire or synthetic fibers, but scientists are now suggesting that the cultivation of hemp should be revived for the production of paper and pulp. According to its proponents, four times as much paper can be produced from land using hemp rather than trees, and many environmentalists believe that the large-scale cultivation of hemp could reduce the pressure on Canada’s forests. 31. How long does it take for 300 hectares of rainforest to be destroyed? A. One minute. B. Two minutes. C. Three minutes. D. Five minutes. 32.

A. it provides taxes for the country B. it offers extra jobs C. it supplies people with cheap products D. it leads to the erosion of the land 33. Why is pulp and paper production important in Canada?
A.Because it plays a vital role in Canada's economy. B.Because it provides many jobs for Canadians. C.Because it enjoys a long history in Canada.
