He was top man on the court for thirteen years, from 1962 to 1975. Whenever he got behind, the Little Giant didnt tighten up, he relaxed. He didnt

19、start to play a safe game. We meet fear and worry every day. But when fear and worry cause up to lose our head, things get really bad. During the 1930s we were in deep trouble as a country. One out of three people was out of work. F.D.R. said, The only thing we have to fear is fear itself. He knew t

20、hat if Americans looked at their troubles with a clear head, they would work out them. Did you ever hear the story of Kelly? One day, Kelly walked over to his neighbor Casey to borrow his wheelbarrow(手推车). On the way Kelly started to think. What if Casey isnt home? A few steps further the thought hi

21、t Kelly, What if his wheelbarrow is broken? Kelly was getting more and more upset. What if Kelly began to say to himself, What if Casey wont lend me the wheelbarrow? By the time he rang Caseys bell, Kelly was in an angry mood(情绪).Casey came to the door and greeted Kelly in a friendly way. Kelly pull

25、s passage? A. Fear and Worry B. We Defeat Ourselves C. We Are Our Greatest Enemies D. How To Get Rid Of FearBWhen you are advised to “get an education” if you want to raise your income, you are only told half the truth. What you should be told is to get just enough education to provide manpower for

26、your society, but not too much education that would prove an embarrassment to your society. Get a high school diploma, at least. Without that, you are occupationally dead, unless your name happens to be George Bernard Shaw or Thomas Alva Edison and you can successfully drop out in grade school. Get

27、a college degree, if possible. With a BA, you are on the launching pad. But now you have to start to put on the brakes. If you go for a masters degree, make sure its an MBA, and only from a first-rate university. Beyond this, the famous law of diminishing returns(报酬递减规律性) begins to take effect. Do y

28、ou know, for instance, that heavy truck drivers earn more a year than full professors? Yes, the average 1977 salary for those truckers was $24,000, while the full professor managed to average just $23,930. A Ph.D is the highest degree you can get, but except in a few specialized fields such as physi

29、cs or chemistry, where the degree can quickly be turned to industrial or commercial purposes, you are facing a dark future. There are more Ph.D unemployed or underemployed in this country than in any other part of the world by far. If you become a doctor of Philosophy in English or History or Anthro

30、pology or Political Science or language or worst of all-in Philosophy, you run the risk of becoming overeducated for our national demands. Thousands of Ph.Ds are selling shoes, driving cabs, waiting on tables and filling out fruitless applications month after month. And then maybe taking a job in so

31、me high school or backwater(死气沉沉) college that pays much less than the janitor(门卫) earns. Income and education are closely related. Far enough, that is, to make you useful to the gross national product, but not so far that nobody can turn much of a profit on you.45. According to the writer, what the

32、 society expects of education is to turn out people who _. A. will become loyal citizens to a nation B. can always take good care of themselves C. will not be a shame to society or their families D. can meet the demands as a source of manpower46. If you are as gifted as Bernard Shaw or Edison _. A.

33、you can get a high school diploma without difficulty B. you can be professionally successful without a diploma C. the least you should do is to get a diploma D. you will be successful in grade school47.

34、r easy jobs with more money C. there are fewer jobs in high schools D. they are wrongly educated48. According to the passage, which of the following is Not true? A. The higher your education level is, the more money youll earn. B. If you are too well-educated, you may make things difficult for the s

35、ociety. C. One must think carefully before going for a masters degree. D. Bernard Shaw didnt finish high school, nor did Edison.CIndonesias coral reefs (珊瑚礁)are in trouble. Coral mining, industrial pollution and poisonous agricultural run off all play a role in their destruction, but the fishermen h

36、ave been the worst offenders. They not only bomb fish but also poison them with cyanide, an equally destructive practice. The fishermen are also among the biggest potential victims (受害者).Two thirds of Indonesia s 7,000 coastal villages are close to coral reefs and thus depend for their livelihood on

37、 the harvest of reef fish. The disappearing reefs are already leading to a dramatic decline in the productivity of coastal fisheries and to increasing fights among fishermen.Indonesias reefs are vast they cover 51,000 square kilometers, surround 17,500 islands and stretch 3,500 kilometers but they a

38、re not infinite. Many foreign experts and Indonesians fear that the regions entire marine environment could be seriously damaged if the reefs keep dying at their present rate. “The overall picture is depressing, says Ian Dutton, Indonesian director of an environmental group Depressing, but not hopel

39、ess.Despite the destruction, environmentalists have in recent years made significant progress in changing the hearts and minds of the fishermen. Working closely with local Indonesian authorities in North Sulawesi and less populated eastern Indonesia, where most of the country s reefs are located, th

40、ey have succeeded in preventing destructive: fishing practices and coral mining from overwhelming the reefs.Increasing numbers of fishermen are waking up to the threat and protecting the life - sustaining coral before its too late. Nuhung, a 56-year-old fisherman, says, “I always knew blast fishing

41、was harmful. Then I suddenly realized that by bombing the reefs I was destroying not only my own but my childrens future. ”49.In the text the author_.A. presents us some facts and peoples opinions as wellB. shows that hes worried about the situation, but still feels a little hopefulC. says hes delig

43、ion, the reefs would disappear soon.B. More and more fishermen have realized their mistakes.C. Without the coral reefs, the fishermen would have nothing for their livelihoodD. Some practical measures have been taken to stop the situation worsening.52. The fishermen are named “worst offenders” becaus

44、e A. they defend their rights of mining the coral reefs too eagerlyB. they wake up too late to realize the terrible situationC. they use the fishing ways, which destroy the coral reefsD. they pretend to follow the governments rulesDIt is hard to predict how science is going to turn out , and if it i

45、s really good science, it is impossible to predict. If the things to be found are actually new, they must be unknown in advance. You cannot make choices on this matter. You either have science or you dont and if you have it you have to accept the surprising and disturbing pieces of information, alon

46、g with the neat and useful bits.The only solid piece of scientific truth about which I feel totally confident is that we dont know enough about nature. Indeed, I regard this as the major discovery of the past hundred years of biology. It is, in its way, a clear piece of news. It would have amazed th

47、e brightest minds of the 18th century to be told by any of us how little we know and how strange the way seems ahead . In earlier times, they either pretended to understand how things worked or simply made up stones to give answers. Now that we have begun exploring seriously, we are catching sight o

48、f how huge the questions are, and how far from being answered. Because of this, we are sorry. It is not so bad being ignorantif you are totally ignorant; the hard thing is knowing in some detail the reality of ignorance, the worst spots and here and there the not-so-bad spots, but no true light at t

49、he end of the tunnel nor even any tunnels that can yet be trusted.But we are making a beginning, and there ought to be some satisfaction. There are probably no questions we can think up that cant be answered, sooner or later. Within our limits, we should be able to work our way through to all our an

50、swers, if we keep at it long enough, and pay attention.53. It can be inferred from the passage that scientists of the 18th century _.A. thought that they knew a great deal and could deal with most problems of scienceB. knew that they were ignorant and wanted to know more about natureC. were afraid o

55、mean the teenager problem. Whatever you do or however you choose to deal with it, at certain times a wonderful, reasonable and helpful child will turn into a terrible animal.Ive seen friends deal with it in all kinds of different ways. One strict mother insisted that her son, right from a child, sho

56、uld stand up whenever anyone entered the room, open doors and shake hands like a gentleman. I saw him last week when I called round. Sprawling himself (懒散地躺) on the sofa in full length, he made no attempt to turn off the loud TV he was watching as I walked in, and his greeting was no more than a qui

57、ck glance at me. His mother was ashamed. “I dont know what to do with him these days,” she said. “Hes forgotten all the manners we taught him.” He hasnt forgotten them. He s just decided that he s not going to use them. She confessed (坦白) that she would like to come up behind him and throw him down

58、from the sofa onto the floor.Another good friend of mine let her two daughters climb all over the furniture, reach across the table, stare at me and say, “I dont like your dress; its ugly.” One of the daughters has recently been driven out of school. The other has left home.“Where did we go wrong?”

63、uan people are improving their living standards despite the rising sea61._If you suddenly received a lot of money, how would you spend it? For the people of Tuvalu, a tiny state comprising nine islands in the South Pacific, something unusual happened. In 1999 Tuvalu, with its population of 11,000,wa

64、s the third poorest state in the world. Later, Tuvalu received a domain name on the Internet the letters “.tv”. A communication company from California quickly offered to buy the domain name for $ 40 million. The islanders became very rich.62._At the same time the islanders received some very bad ne

65、ws. Due to global warming, and because the islands are only 3m above sea level, Tuvalu will probably become the first state in the world to disappear under the sea. According to scientific estimates, the islands will suffer severe floods within the next 15 - 20 years, and by the end of the century,

66、the islands will have disappeared from sight altogether.63._You can already see signs of the rising sea on Tuvalu. Pools of seawater appear here and there, some beaches are swallowed by the waves, and the roots of trees are rotting by the ocean. The rains cause temporary floods.64._But despite these

67、 problems, the Tuvaluan had their new money. Paul Lindsay, a documentary film - maker, went all the way to Tuvalu, and came back with an incredible story. As the water rises, the Tuvaluan are using the money to develop the land that is soon to disappear. They are building new houses, planning nightc

68、lubs, restaurants and hotels, and new cars are driving around on new roads. Just because we are sinking, it doesnt mean we dont want to raise our standards of living. Lindsay was told by Sam Teo, Tuvalu s minister for natural resources.65._Of the $ 40 million Tuvalu received through the Internet dea

69、l, $ 10 million was used to asphalt the islands L9km of roads. Before 1999 there were four cars on the islands. The Tuvaluan used to walk or cycle everywhere. There was a flood of imported foods and goods and soon these had unexpected consequences. The Tuvaluan people now suffer from diseases such a

70、s obesity, high blood pressure and diabetes. Others discovered that it was too expensive for them to keep their cars. There is now a huge rubbish dump in the middle of this tropical paradise, covered with abandoned cars and other waste.第II卷 （共50分）第三部分：写作（共三节，满分50分）第一节：单词拼写（共10小题，每小题1分，满分10分）66.I wil
