短文理解1
The Gobi Desert, in the north of China, is now seven times bigger than
Britain. China has large desert areas and much of its agricultural land
is being threatened by desertification, which is getting worse. In
addition, soil erosion has led to a huge loss of farmland and the
drying up of rivers. Consequently, the livelihoods of 35 million people
are being threatened. Furthermore it is even affecting cities. The
nearest sand dune is less than 100 miles from Beijing, where unpleasant
sandstorms are becoming more frequent. The worse the situation, the
more pressure there is on the government to take action.
The reasons for the changes are complex. It is clear that pollution of
the air and water by factories is affecting the environment. Trees and
other vegetation die, and so soil is eroded. The more trees that die,
the less water is held in the earth. The need for wood for fuel and
buildings leads to further deforestation, which causes further soil
erosion. Local farmers find it more and more difficult to make a
living. They end up using inefficient farming methods, which again
leads to soil erosion.
The Government is carrying out anti-desertification projects, including
the creation of a forest belt around deserts. The tree-planting
campaign, known as the Great Green Wall, is meant to project Beijing
from sandstorms. China hopes to control the expansion of desert land by
the year 2010 and plans to establish a protected eco-system in desert
areas by 2050.
41. Britain is ________.
A. one eighth of the size of China
B. 20% of the size of China
C. as big as the Gobi desert
D. bigger than Gobi desert
42. The total desert area of China is ______.
A. decreasing B. remaining constant C. not mentioned in the text
D. increasing
43. The trees die because _____.
A. the soil is poor B. the air and water is polluted
C. they get diseases D. they are not well planted by people
44. The Chinese government is planting trees around ______.
A. the deserts B. China C. Beijing D. the north of China
45. The expansion of desert land _____.
A. will definitely be controlled by 2010 B. won’t be
controlled by 2010
C. should be controlled by 2010 D. must be controlled by 2010
短文理解2
Recently, a rather sophisticated(老练的) woman told me shyly
that she saves up all her presents until Christmas morning and then
sits up in bed and opens them, just like a child. She thought I would
laugh at her and say how silly she was. But in fact I was absolutely
delighted to meet someone who treats Christmas as I do.
Many people today have a very different attitude to Christmas.
They think it’s just a time when shopkeepers make a lot of money and
everyone rushes round buying presents they don’t want to give and
food they can’t remember all the good things.
First of all, Christmas takes you out of the ordinary dull
routing of life. For children, the fun begins weeks before when the
decorations are put up, and excitement gradually increased as December
the 25th approaches.
Everyone seems much friendlier to each other than usual at
Christmas time.
You can lean(倚靠) on a car window when you’re stopped at
the traffic lights and say “Merry Christmas,” and people will smile
and respond. You probably wouldn’t think of doing that at any other
time of year. Perhaps it’s because most people are on holiday or
because everyone knows that they are sharing a similar experience.
Giving presents can be very satisfying, too, if you plan far enough in
advance and really think of the right present for the right person.
Indeed, whatever shopkeepers gain out of Christmas, it is still
a “holy day,” the words from which “holiday” is deserved, and
it gives people time to pause and concentrate for a moment on
non-commercial values.
46. When the woman told the writer her Christmas story, she was shy
because _____.
A. she thought it was too private B. it showed her greediness
C. she thought it was too childish D. it showed her honesty
47. Many people have different attitude to Christmas because _____.
A. shops earn too much money B. people eat too much food
C. everyone gives out a lot of gifts D. the festival is too
commercialized
48. The writer thinks that Christmas ______.
A. brings excitement into the boring life B. begins several
weeks before Dec. 25th
C. gives a better time to children than adults D. is a time for
the shops to make money
49. People are more friendly to each other at Christmas time because
_____.
A. they receive a lot of gifts and good wishes from other people
B. Christmas provides them with an experience they can share
C. more people put on a smiling face and reply to greetings
D. shopkeepers are happy when they can make more money
50. The main idea of the passage is that _____.
A. adults do not enjoy Christmas as much as children do
B. early planning is the key to a good time for Christmas
C. shopping for presents is a part of the Christmas celebration
D. Christmas has not lost its charm in modern society
六、阅读下列短文，并根据短文内容判断其后的句子是正确（T），错误（F），还是文章中没有涉及相关信息（NG）（每题2分，共10分）
短文理解3
The Internet’s ability to connect a wide range of cultures encourages
variety. However, for the time being, English dominates online because
from the start it was the lingua franca of cyberspace. Will this always
be the case?
Currently about 70% of Internet content is in English, but only
about 44% of Internet users are native English speakers. Worldwide,
native Spanish speakers outnumber native speakers of English online,
and the number of native Chinese speakers is greater than both those
groups put together. Statistics show that the situation is changing.
For instance, three years ago 75% of web pages were in English, but
that number has dropped to 50% today.
Furthermore, Internet use among non-native speakers of English
is growing at a faster rate than that of native English speakers. By
2003, the number of native English-speaking web users will have dropped
to 29%, according to one estimate.
As a result, some researchers say that the early predominance of
English is going to decline. They say that English will keep a special
role in connecting communities whose native languages are different,
but in about 20 years’ time, Spanish, French, Arabic and Chinese will
also have taken on this connecting role. If this is true, then
monolingual native English speakers may be more likely to learn another
language and also become bilingual, or even multilingual.
51. English became the dominant Internet language because it is spoken
in cyberspace.
52. Less than half of Internet users have English as their first
language.
53. There are fewer native Spanish speakers than native English
speakers online.
54. Approximately 40% of Spanish speakers have some sort of access to
the Internet.
55. Only about half of web pages are in English compared to
three-quarters three years ago.
